In Christ.

There is, therefore, now no condem-
nation to them which are in Christ Jesus,
who walk not after the flesh, but after
the Spirit" Rom. viii l.
l. Here is the happy state of those
who are in Christ. In Christ expresses
unison with him, as the branch is in
the vine, united to it, and so one with it,
drawing all its life and nourishment
from il. So to be in Christ is to be
united to him-one with him. There is
legal uulon; In the covenant Of redemp-
ton he takes our place and acts for us,
suffering for us and in our stead, and
paying our debt. There is also vttaL
union, effected by the Holy Spirit, when
he renews US and unites us to Christ in
effectual calling We then accept Christ
receive and rest upon him-by faith,
have life in him, and are free from con-
domination; being justified by faith we
have peace with God.
2. To such, being in Christ, there is
no condemnation Condemnation is the
natural state of all men, and to be free
from it is to be justified and accounted
righteous. Instead of being condemned
they who are in Christ are iustifed-in
state OF Justlhcatlon-to them there is
no condemnation.
3. The evidence of this happy state is
walking not after the flesh, but after the
Spirit. To walk after the flesh is to live
in sin, following our own hearts lusts,
fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of
the mind-a life of sin. To walk after
the Spirit is to live a spiritual and holy
life-it is to follow the word of God,
doing his wilt is to live to the glory
of God, making that our end, with his
law for our rule and his love as our mo-
tive. Mans chief end is to glorify God
and to enjoy him forever. This should
be our end and aim-and it will be if we
are in Christ-new creatures-united to
him by faith, with his Spirit dwelling in
our hearts. Now are we in Christ, and
do we thus evidence it, walking not after
the flesh, but after the Spirit? Or are
we yet in state of condemnation, hav-
ing no hope, and without God in the
world?

With two evangelists, aided by the
Central Committee, and one without such
aid, at work within our bounds, all the
vacant churches have been regularly sup
piled with the stated means of grace
Two candidates are under the care of
Presbytery. A series of questions was
adopted, which candidates are to answer
in writing, annually, at the spring meet
ing of Presbytery.
Pastors and Sessions are recommended
to seek to impress upon their people the
Importance OF sustaining The Publication
cause.
The Narrative sets forth that the Off
cial fidelity of pastors, elders, and dea-
cons is, in the main, commendable At
tendance on the services of the sanctuary
is good in all the churches, with special
works of grace in three churches. The
prevalence of intemperance, worldly
amusements, and other forms of ungodli-
ness, are on the decrease. Family wor-
ship is neglected to greater or less ex-
tent in every church. Catechetical in
struction in Sabbath Schools, generally
practiced, but much neglected in families

The Presbytery of Red River

Held Its spring sessions In the Metho-
dist church at Minden, La, March Goth
April 1st.
This Presbytery consists Of FIVE white
and one colored minister, and twenty-six
churches scattered throughout region
embracing nearly half the territory of
Louisiana, and about third of its popu-
lation. And yet but two churches were
represented. This is owing in part to
the high waters covering at present near
ly fourth of our territory. Four min
listers were present. The total member
ship of the churches is about 1000 Yet
there are in many places in this vast ter
ritory Presbyterians inhabiting and wait
ing for minister-hoping against hope
Shreveport church is the only self-sus-
tanning one in our bounds, and pays its
pastor more than all the other preachers
receive.
Vacant Homer, Minden, Bel
levue, forms an inviting and healthy field,
and could pay an energetic man $500
dollars. Monroe, Trenton, and Delhi, is
also an inviting field, and 1 suppose could
do as much. Monroe, on the Ouachita,
is healthy town. This church has a
good parsonage, and would be the natural
and most convenient place for the minis
ter to dwell. Walt chapel, near Mile
kens Bend, and St. Joe, near Hardtimes
Landing, on the Mississippi River, would
be good field for man adapted to it..
Father D. A. Campbell, who has been
living in the bottom for many years, Post
Office, Rayville, and who is approaching
four-score, could give all the information
for this field.
Now we have written to the best of our
knowledge. We have been acquainted
with the Minden and Monroe fields for
over twenty years, and do not think one
need fear for his health in either. Min
den is as healthy field as any with
which L am acquainted in the United
States.
Rev. James A. McLees and elder
Mattox are principal, and Rev. w. G.
Dunlap, D. D., and elder Robt. w. North,
alternate commissioners to the General
Assembly.
The Assembly Mlttan02lS overture was
answered in the negative, and an over
ture to the Assembly asking special aid
for this field was sent up.
Rev. A. B. Banks accepted the call to
Banks chapel, and is to be installed on
the 9Th Sabbath in April
Presbytery will hold its next meeting
with this church in October next.

May l ask the following question for
the consideration of the Lords workers
in London, which occurred to me after
looking at the admirable arrangements
made by the Glasgow United Evangelis-
tic Association (Which is the outcome of
the last visit of Mr.. Moody and Sankey
to Glasgow. Have we any machinery
existing by which we could arrange for
SIX or seven meetings day, or could we
IN few days lay our hands upon 800 or
400 competent workers for the inquiry
room?
The Christians in Glasgow are expecting
great things; as one said to me, 1--WE
have seen what it is to have the num-
Der of the names together about 100
(Acts i: l5), but we are longing to see
the 5000 souls probably men, women,
and children) added in one day iii: 4l);
or, better still, 5000 men Gv: A. brought
