imathea, begs the lifeless body of Je.
sus, and Nicodemus joins him in pre-.
pairing it for the sepulcher.
Far above the fear, far above the
applause of men these two join in
their becoming offices. 1t would be
difficult to find in history a bravery
superior to that of Nicodemus. There
may be a nobler courage, than even
that of the warrior in the battle or the
sailor in the storm. When Luther
defended himself before the great en-
peror of his age, and a council of
princes and prelates
AN OLD GENERAL
greeted him, grasp him by the hand.
and sad, 81 have fought in the thick
est battles of my time, but ] have
meyer, after all, shown a valor equal
to yours" The courage of Nicodemus
was a higher order than that which
forces and fights with danger; it was
80 ardent that it did not see
the danger, and was in fact
utterly unconscious of it.
So, Christian brethren, be not con-
tented with past attainments. Be-
sides this, with all diligence, add to
your faith virtue, and to virtue knowl-
edge, and to knowledge temperance
and patience, and to patience godli-
ness, and to goodness brotherly kind
ness, and to brotherly kindness char
ity, for if these things be gwen you
and abound, they make that ye shall
neither be barren nor unlawful in the
knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. "
The true Christian does not allow
himself to think that he has attained,
or that he is
ALREADY PERFECT,
but forgetting the things that are be-
hind, he presseth forward to those
that are before. He may not be per-
feet but he is seeking to be perfect.
Like a good soldier of Christ, he will
not cease from the contest till he has
conquered those sins which are
Christ's enemies and are his own enc
mics. We are to continue the contest
until we have slain the last of
u spiritual enemies. If it
is objected that this must be till death
the I say that eve until death we
must continue faithful. The Chris
tian dies in armor, as we have heard
of the warrior dying in the battle at
the moment when his troops were
raising the shout of victory. The
last sound which he hears on earth is
the clang of arms in his final contest
with sin; even as the first sound
which he hears in heaven is the song
of triumph, "Blessing and honor and
glory and power be unto him that
stitch on the throne and the lamb
that was slain"

The Land LEAGUE.

The British government has followed up The
arrest Of Mr.. Paraell By the equally summary
arrest Of six other leaders OF the land league,
ali or whom are charged with being suspected
Of ,reasonable practices aud with laeiiiag peo.
ple to intimidafe tenants not 10 pay rent
Three Of those arrested, including Mr.. Par
nell, are members Of Parliament, and q war
rant was also out for Mr.. 0'Connor, another
member. Father Sheehey, who would proba-
bly, have been joined 20 The number, had leit
for France few days before. Il j. stated
that quite number ofother warrants have been
issued, aud all persons have been officially
notified that any attemp; TO intimidaie fAsu-
eFs from paying rent, or 70 force them 10
abandon their employment, or 20 join the land
league, will render them subject to arrest.
Il would appear from this that the govern
meut has finally come to the determination TO
break up the land league organization root
and branch, and 10 put down any demoDsirn-
tons of resistance BY force OF arms Is IS q
change of policy that will surprise those who
believed that Mr.. Gladstone would respect
freedom Of speech, but Il is also an indiea
ton that popular agitation has spread 50 com
pletely over many parts Of Ireland that the
concessions Of the land act cannot put 3 stop
70 il so long as the land league has power to
influence the people. What viii be the out
come Of these vigorous measures It IS difficult
to say. Burke has told us long ago that
it is impossible TO frame an indictment against
q whole people. The mere suppression OF
sporadic disturbances viii amount TO little.
There viii be no armed rising, because the
Irish people have already been very general
" disarmed, and because the leaders OF the
land league have wisely forbidden t. But no
government has power to deal With passive
resistance, and passive resistance, if Mr.. Par
nelFs counsel is followed, viii be found more
etfeetual in battling the efforts of Messrs.
Gladstone and Forster to induce the people
TO accept the land act than open Instruction.
Forcible suppression may bring about seem.
ing acauiescenee, but it can never make OF
the Irish loyal or a eontented people.-.SaH
