A POlyganlous Savage.

On Thursday evening last Mr.. VIM. Tay-
lOr, the eminent evargelstic preacher, re-
lated the following incident in his mission
ary experience in South Africa, as illustra.
tive Of the effect Of conversion to Christ
Jesus, in the obedience Of faith:
A powerful Caifre chiet, having come
under the power OF the Lord, the gospel vi
valuation. after prolonged struggle and con-
f1ict, burde:,ed with the consciousness oil his
sins, and lifelong rebellion against God, re.
allied the Lord Jesus Christ as his sin offer
ing, his Justification, his Savior. His Joy
was full, he felt that he was not his own,
that he had been bought with price, and
that heucefnr.', as Code cbi,ai.-hs ,n,,St
glorify his Cod and Father in his body and
In his spirit.
In u !ar,c assembly Of his fellow coun.
trymen and subjects he was describing the
change which had passed upon him, and
expressing his earnest desire and purpose
to livcnootl,ence to Gods will as revealed
in the scriptures of truth. Some ono III
the audience exclaimed, "What are you 60.
ing to do about your six wives?' Unabasf-
ed and without hesitation he replied, II will
show YOU Just at once what have resolved
to do" lie called his six wives to the front
and set them in arrow in the order in which
he had taken them to wife. Then he spakt
and said, "ln my darkness and heatheneSs
took wife after wife just as ! lusted, unit
had six women, the slaves Of my will anc
passion. Now that have accepted Jesus
Christ rs my Lord, and have become his
blond-bought purchase, yield up my will
in obedience to Ills. He himself said, as
am instructed, "ln the beginning God
made them male and female, and for this
cause shall man leave his father ant
mother, and cleavc To his wife, and the two
shall be nne llest." Then addressing hi
six wives, he said, "'rhc female frs
married is my wife. in the sight OF God, ant
to her alone will clcave. From the othe
five, with whom have lived, separate
and looking at them he said, II give yo,
your liberty, you are no longer my slaves
you are as free as ii YOU had never live'
with me. did il in ignorance, wa
blind, but now see"
Surely this CATERS example is worth
Of imitation by all who may secretly ST.
the error Of the past. Better to act ou
conviction unhesitatingly than wander o
in darkness, with a bui dencd conscience
