was only partial. A year ago it became
evident to himself and to others that the.
work OF life was drawing near its close.
decisive reasons pointed to a removal to
Texas last March, where he remained
surrounded by all his family, and watch
ed over with tender care, until called to
another world He continued to preach
as occasion offered until last November
when the service was followed by so much
exhaustion as to induce him to relinquish
any further effort. Since Christmas his
decline was very manifest, and all were
forewarned by symptoms of the fatal
apoplexy approaching. When the stroke
came on the morning of the 18th inst,
his mind, when aroused was for little
time rational, but entire Inconsistencies
soon supervened, and continued until he
passed away most gently and without a
sign of suffering, to the everlasting rest.
Joseph Brown was man who feared
God from his childhood His disposition
was entirely amiable. He was gentle
towards all men, kind and affectionate
though quiet in his manner. and not
very demonstrative. His temper was
emlnently charitable and forbearing. pa
tient and humble, while at the same time
he was inAexible where conscience was
concerned and his courage equal to any
exigency. He was a sound theologian
and well-informed on general subjects
Notwithstanding the absence of good
elocution, the solidity of his matter and
the manifest sincerity of his heart, made
his preaching always instructive and edi-
flying, and at times of unusual fervor it
was highly impressive His energy and
industry were of marked character.
His thorough integrity and prudence of
speech, together with the qualities men
toned above, secured warm friends where
ever he lived, and it may be said that he
had no enemies.
This notice comes from the hand of a
brother, but he is persuaded that it diff
ters in nothing from the Judgment which
would be pronounced by all who knew
this departed minister of Christ-a man
who lived a good life, who died in the
Lord, and whose memory is blessed.

nounced the pardon of their sins.
Now, if there is in all this vast as
sembly one poor, broken hearted sinner
to him | say; Do you not see that YOU
are the very person Jesus is after, pur-
suing you, though you may be fleeing
from Him? He came to save the broken
hearted, and to bind up their wounds
He is ready to speak to you the first kind
words YOU have heard since your mother
last caressed you, and to give His sym
pathy to those who have lost all sympathy
of men.
Hence it was that what happened at
Slmon's house REQUIRED again and again.
Jesus attracted those whom the world
rejected The despised and degraded
came to Him in throngs because they knew
that He would welcome the sinner while
He rebuked the SIN.
Oh don't you see that l am telling
you the same old story of Jesus and His
love, the story of the forgiveness of sins
for the chief of sinners? And can't you
appreciate the force of this ARGUMENT
that the Gospel which saved this moor
harlot will save anybody? that the Sa-
vlour who pitled her will pity anybody
that the grace which forgave her will
forgive anybody?
Here l stand, in my Masters name,
and declare that yours is the very case
provided for, and that you are especially
invited to come first. Dora Greenwich
Quoted by Robinson in Discusses of Re
demption has beautifully expounded
the doctrine | am preaching in the talk
of the poor collier to his wife. Said the
reckless pitman:
I've got word like fire in my heart
That will not let me be;
Jesus the Son of God, who loved,
And who gave Himself for me-
There's none on earth could frame such tale.
For, as strange as the tale may be,
Jesus, my Saviour, that Thou shouldst die,
For the love of a man like me-
Why, only think now, if it had been
Peter or blessed Paul
Or John, who used to lean on His breast
One couldn't have wondered at all.
If He'd lived and died for men like these,
Who loved Him so we'll, but yeu see
1t was me that Jesus loved, wife
He gave Himself for me.
He didn't wait till l came to Him.
But He loved me at my worst;
He needn't ever have died for me,
If L could have loved Him first.
And could'st Thou love such man as me
My Saviour? then I'll take
More heed to this wandering soul of mine
If it's only for Thy sake.
Yes, my hearers, it is the glory of Je-
sus that He came to save to the utter
most; that this gospel is good news for
thieves, for drunkards, for rogues, for
harlots, and that its trophies every one of
them are living witnesses to encourage,
especially that man who cries out, {" But
am the chief of sinners"

Death of Rev. Joseph Brown

On the morning of the 18th inst, at
Bryan, Texas, the spirit of this good man
departed to be with Christ He was born
IN Rockbridge county, Wa son of the
Rev. Samuel Brown and Mary Moore, the
" Captive of Abs Valley" During the
great revival of 1922, and when about
thirteen years of age, he was received
INTO full communion with the New, Prov
.dence church He was graduated at
Washington College in 1880, and in 1885
he completed the full course of study at
Princeton Theological Seminary In the
fall Of that year he was licensed to preach
the gospel by the Presbytery Of Licking
ton, at New Providence, and in October.
1886, was ordained at Augusta church,
From that time until 1916, his field of
labor was In the counties of Greenbrier
and Pocahontas, (now West Virginia }
chiefly among the churches Of Spring
Greek and Little Levels. Leaving Vir1
glnia he removed with his family to Mem
Phls, Tenn, and about two years after to
the vicinity of Natchez, Miss. In both
OF these places his support was derived
mainly from teaching, while his ministry
was gwen to the colored people. AS the
chief motive in both these removals was
to seek more southern climate for his
wife, and also relief from bronchial afFec-
tlons by which he had been himself much
troubled, these considerations induced
HIM to remove, after some years, to south
ern Florida, where he settled on Suwan-
nee river, and was actively engaged much
OF the time in missionary work over a
wide field.
The death Of his wife in 1859 and the
war in 1861, brought him back to Vir-
gina to be near his only children, two
sons, who were in the army. Upon the
close of the war, and the event of a second
marriage, he returned to his former home
IN Florida. Under severe misfortunes in
his affairs, he was led to remove nearly
two hundred miles further down the be
ninsula, where he set up his tabernacle
IN the healthful settlement at Clear Water
Harbor. This ~as in 1868. Here he
renamed ten years, during which time
ne was successful in gathering and organ
iz5ng an interesting little Presbyterian
church, and had the pleasure, among his
very last labors there, of defeating a
neat and comfortable building to the wor-
ship Of Coda matter which he had
much at heart. His labors were almost
entirely without pecuniary compensation.

much straitened
About five years ago he was Frustrated

The Salvation Army. /,

We have received as supplement of
THE Christian, of London, report of the
work of the Salvation Army for 1879,
written by the Rev William Booth, who
has succeeded, we suppose, John Allen as
captain of this remarkable army. 1t is
dated from 1.-THE Headquarters Of Saliva
ton Army 272 White Chapel Road,
London b. The report notices that one
OF the most valuable gains Of the past
year has been in the deepening of the
military spirit of the soldiers of the
Salvation Army. Councils of war were
held IN various places, and not less than
5000 persons spent the whole of at least
one night in united prayer for the divine
AID and blessing. 1t appears that the
work OF the Army is among the most
ignorant and degraded classes. We read
that, entering Scotland for the first time,
two large congregations of the Lowest
description were gathered in Glasgow,
and many of the worst" were led to
Christ " In Lancashire large congrega-
lions of the toughest sort have been added
to those already gathered in Manchester
and Liverpool and in spite of the most
violent ruffianism, many of the most des-
perate have been subdued by the power
OF God. In Nottingham and vicinity
SIX distinct congregations were gathered
from the public houses; in Cheitenbam
and bennington many of the rough and
ignorant were converted; the GOLFERS of
Option, Wilmington, and other places were
reached, and many signs and wonders
were wrought in Jesus name" and the
laborers Of Bridlington Lynn Northamp-
ton, West Bromwich and Jersey also fell
as glorious spoil before the furious at
tack directed against them" 1t is hoped
that some among the French-speakinp
population Of Jersey may be prepared for
an early descent on the Norman Coast
The Lord enabled the Army" to add
more than so districts to those previously
occupied, and valley after valley in
South Wales has been so flooded with
holy influences that the character of the
whole population has been changed. The
charge-sheets Of police courts have been
greatly reduced, the liquor traffic has
almost suspended, and whole counties
have been reused to spiritual concern"
As showing the permanent character Of
the work, it Is stated that during the
year second or third stations were opened
In IL towns previously occupied The
Army encountered opposition of the
most violent nature in some places Sew
eral officers of the Army" were inn
| prlsoned and some were beaten and
bruised and almost killed by mobs
Still, though the peculiarities of the work
afford ample material for hostile com
ment there were stronger and warmer
commentators by the press than ever
before The report states that there are
l25 corps and stations and 179 officers
wholly employed in the work. There
We're 1000 voluntary speakers and 100
900 services were held. The contribu-
tlons received amounted to sos. 495.
while the collections from the conprega-
tons reached 100000 Some 100000
year is required to pay rents. A weekly
paper, called The Var CRY, is issued
which gives the latest news Of the war
from all parts Of the country '-Lqdcoen-

People in the United States who
favor strong Government, and for
that reason, think that General Grant
should be elected President, will hard
ly dispute that Russia is governed as
strongly as the most ardent Imperiahst
could desire. The result of this one
man power is being made apparent in
many ways wllich can scarcely COM
mend themselves to the liberEy-loving
citizens of the United States or any
other country. Men are arrested on
a mere suspicion of being hostile to the
oue-man government, and dragged to
prison, and either executed forthwith
or banished to- Siberia. One of the
latest DEGREES of this strong Govern
ment requires all Jews of foreign birth
to leave the city of St. Petersburg
within six hours of the time it was pro.
lnulgated. The strong Governments did
not stop to inquire what business disas-
ters would be caused by the Decree, or
what sacrifices those whom it affected
would have to make to comply with iii
1t was despotic order, made by a
despot whose will is the supreme law,
and it had to be obeYed No excuse,
however reasonable, would be accepted
in palliation of the ofense of disobeying
it. The only alternative Yves to quit
the city or be- Imprisoned
Here is food for reflection for the
advocates Of a. stronger Government in
the United States. A.strong Govern
ment simply means the Capitalization
of power, and a change in the constitu-
ton and the laws; in fact it cannot
have any other. meaning. Abrahara
Lincoln, as President of Che United
States was strong enough to suppress
the rebellion, though he never acquired,
any great .notoriety as a .military man.,
consequently those who4favor strong
Government, and desire the election Of
General Grant as the person, who wsgsld
be most likely to make,it strong, must
mean to change our existing form Of
government to conform to their views.
A government, which, under the ad-
ministration of a.civilian is capable Of
making itself respected throughout the
civilized world, and of suppressing re.
bellionsI at home, is sufficiently strong
to satisfy every citizen who is not inn
bued with monarchical ideas, and only
those who expect to-be rewarded with
power and titles in the event of a
change, can desire any stronger Gov.
eminent than that which now exists in
the United States. Grant, as Presi.
dent, can make the Governments no
stronger than Lincoln proved it 70 BE,
without changing it's form, and those
who desire that. charge shouldA visis

perience how desirable such a@olfange
