THE YEAR OF JUBILEE.

At hanover Presbyterian Church,
Sabbath morning, DR.. Marks chose for
his subject "The Year of Jubilee"
taken from the twenty fifth chapter of
Levit'cus, tenth verse; 10 fact the whole
chapter was referred TO during his SER
mon. He said the law was given to the
Hebrews when they were encamped at
Mount Sinai and were on THAR way to
the Promised Land through the Will
deTness, which took forty years 10 ac-
complish. At this time these people
did not own any houses or lands, and
did not own any uHtil seven years after
they had crossed the river Jordan, when
Joshua divided the lend after the hea-
then had been driven out. This year OF
jubilee was celebrated fifty years from
that time. Moses, their leader, having
been dead many years, aad bis grave
was unknown to any Of his people, this
law, then, did not go iDto effect until a
century after it was gwen to the people
of Israel, yet they obeyed it, and did as
Moses commanded them, because they
believed that Moses received it from
God. The Dr. said this was proof that
Moses was inspired of the Lord. That
such wisdom could not be contemplated
by any man TO make law for the fu'
ture, q hundred years TO come. People
make laws for the present and for theil
own welfare. The DR.. gave many ap
illustrations which were for our guild
ancs. After listening TO the sermon, ant
then reading the chapter one could wei
appreciate the able arguments adduced
