A Word About Divine Justice.

How apt we are to associate the justice
of God with the punishment of sin merely;
as if it was not applicable to the righte-
GUS, as we'll as to the wicked. Indeed,
our theologies run almost directly into
the retributive aspect. Surely this is a
mistake. The good man needs Justice,
and he will get it as well as the bad man.
1t is the great comfort of the Christian
that God is just. We should remember
that even mercy is the bloom and fruit of
justice. Divine justice is after all, only
another form or expression of divine love,
as the Beatitudes are only another form
of the Ten Commandments Let us re-
member that justice is as really benedic-
tive as Vindictive. Justice is at once the.
throne of the Infinite King, and the heart
of the Infinite Father; it is Sinai with its
law and lightning, and Calvary too, with
its pardoning blood and love it is the
earthquake, whirlwind, and fire, and the
" still, small voice" too, which Elijah
heard it is winter with its storm swept
earth, and summer with its genial sun
shine and dew, its flowers and harvest
it is hell, with its miseries of darkness
and despair, and it is heaven, too, with
It's bliss unspeakable and full of glory"
Goods justice is bed where we
Our anxious hearts may lay
And, weary with ourselves, may sleep
Our discomfort away"
Christian ZateII5qencer.

what will you do when you get home?
I Well sir, said he, I have an uncle who
became Christian in Australia and a
brother who became Christian here in
California; and when we all get home to-

will be to build little church, and we
will have meetings in it every Sunday.
Maybe at first only we three will go to it,
but think afterwards others will come
At any rate, that is what we shall pray
for. ~ Y Evangelist.

No Real Prayer is Lost.

The dew which battles the summer
rose and glorifes the meadow with it's
morning sheen had its origin in what
might seem to be the escapes and wastes
of the planet. And when rose and mead
ow have exhaled their dews at the touch
of the sun, the viewless, imponderable
vapor is not dissipated beyond recall it
is not all spent on the thankless air; it is
gathered and garnered in the chambers
of the sky, and returns again in due sea-
son, according to its circuit, in orient dews
or refreshing showers. And shall not
the finer exhalations of the soul-the
prayers which are breathed from the
deeps of the breast, the secret vows, the
Godward thought, the devout aspiration
shall not these also return according to
their circuit, and bring their blessing?

MoTToEs FOR THE New YEAR, as given in Texts
of Sermons preached in the Tenth Presbyte
rian church, Philadelphia. By Henry A
Boardman, d. D. Philadelphia: E. Claxton
& Co.. No. $50 Market street. 1882. Fol-
sale in Richmond by ]. W. Randolph & Eng
fish, Main street.
The name of DR. Boardman was long famil
lar one to every Presbyterian household as one
of the ablest and most earnest ministers of the
city of Philadelphia. He was known also to
Presby terian theological students as the author
of the thorough and exhaustive work on 1.-The
Apostolical Succession"
The present volume consists of New Years
Sermons preached from 1858 to 1872 The au-
thor, we are told in the preface, was repeatedly
asked during his life time to publish them, but
his purpose to do so was never carried out
They are now collected and brought out in a
handsome form by Messrs. Claxton & Co.
There are fourteen sermons on such texts as
God is mine Helper" Ps " 4 The Lord is
at Hand" Phil. iv 5; This is my Friend,
Solonon's Song, V: 49, "a Little While" John
xvi; 16; Whose 1 am and Whom 1 serve,
Acts xvii: %, etc.
Long ago" remarks the writer of the pref
atory note to the volume, 1.-The reputation OIL
DIR. BOardman writer, speaker, Chris
tian teacher, was fully established, and on some
questions his judgment had come to be consid
cred, in more than one large circle, as substan
TALLY ultimate, The quality of his expires
sion was thought by competent and impartial
critics to bear ready comparison with that Of
any writer of the day in our country. But
more than this: the facts and teachings of the
word of God were accepted by him with an en-
tireness and energy of assent, with freshness
of individual perception, and with an immediate
influence on the inner man, that eminently
qualified him to speak as messenger of the
Gospel of Jesus Christ"
Volumes of sermons are, we are glad to know
among the most popular books of the day, and
the sermons of judicious, sound, and learned
a man as DIR. Boardman ought to have wide
circulation.

The How.

1t is an accepted d5ctum of science that
heat is mode of motion. 1t is insisted
and believed that when any motion is
impeded it is converted into heat. We
have an illustration of this truth when
we see a cannon ball become kissing hot
as it strikes target. Professor Tyndall
would tell us that the heat of this ball
results from the change of the motion of
the mass into motion Of the atoms com
posing the mass. Also that these atomic
motions, communicated to the nerves.
produce in the mind the sensation of heat.
And we believe all this But will he 90
a step farther and tell how this change is
effected? How the motion Of the mass
is converted into the motion Of the atoms
composing it? And will he tell us how
these atomic motions reach the nerves.
and, through them, produce in the mind
the sensatian Of heat? Never For he
really knows no more of the subtitle and
occult forces and laws that underlie these
surface facts than the Christian does of
the spiritual laws and forces that produce
IN the mind Of the believer the sensation
OF love to God and man.-Dr. j. r.

Preach Authoritatively.

Mr.. Sturgeon, the London preacher,
said lately that he had heard a great deal
about sympathy with modern doubt.
He had no sympathy with it, and would
not fight with the wooden sword of ar
gument, but with the true Jerusalem
blade alone. What they had to say to
people was, "This is Gods Word, and
you have got to believe it," and they
might tell them that if they would not
believe it they would be cast into hell,
whatever Canon this or Canon the other
might say To be strong they must be
dogmatic. They might read any num-
Der of articles in the Nineteenth Century
or the FOrtmighty ReUieaO, but in the
end they would have to make it up with
their Bibles, if they had quarrelled with
them.

The Love of Christ.

For the love of Christ constrainotb us.-2
Cor. IA.
1t is Christ's love to us, and not our
love to him, that constrains us, and is the
motive to piety and effort and to renewed
conservation. This love is self-moved,
entirely gratuitous, pure and disinter-
ested. 1t is unchangeable it is eternal
an everlasting love. Itisinfnite, pass
ing knowledge. None loves like him. He
loved his people, for whom he gave him
self a ransom, from eternity, and he will
love them to eternity. 1t is written of
him, that having loved his own which
were in the world, he loved them unto
the end, and he will love them evermore.
He pardons their sins, bears with their
imperfections, sustains them in life, sup
ports them in death, and then receives
them to the mansions which he has gone
to prepare for them. Whatever his peo-
pie enjoy in this world, and all they hope
for m the next, they owe to the love Of
their Lord and Master, Jesus Christ

London Bridge.

Proud and lowly, beggar ana loro'
Over the bridge they GO
RAGS and velvet, fetter and sword,
Poverty, pomp, and woe.
Laughing, weeping, hurrying over,
Hour by hour they crowd along,
While, below, the mighty river
Sings them all a hooking song.
Hurry along, sorrow and song,
All is vanity meath the sun;
Velvet and rags, SO the world wags,
Until the river no more shall run.
Dainty, painted, powdered and gay,
Rolleth my lady by
Rags-and tatters, over the way,
Carries heart as high.
Flowers and dreams from country meadows,
Dust and din thro' city skies,
Old men creeping with their shadows,
Children with their sunny eyes.
Hurry along, sorrow and song,
All is vanity meath the sun;
Velvet and rags, so the world wags,
Until the river no more shall run.
Storm and sunshine, peace and strife,
Over the bridge they go;
Floating on in the tide of life,
Whittier no man shall know,
Who will miss them there to morrow;
Waits that drift TO the shade or sun
Gone away with their songs and sorrow;
Only the river still flows on.
Hurry along, sorrow and song,
All is vanity meath the sun;
Velvet and rags, so the world wags,
Until the river no more shall run.

From the report of our Presbyterian
Mission to the Chinese in California for
the year 1881, it appears in twelve
months ten persons were received into
the church on profession of faith, and
that eleven were dismissed to unite with
other churches in China and in the Sand
witch Islands. The whole number re-
ceived since the inception Of the mission
in 1852 is al of these 10 are still resi-
dent in San Francisco. The missionary,
Rev. DR.. LOOMS, gives the following ac-
count Of Chinese lad recently received
into the church "He had been member
Of the Sabbath-school but not of the
evening school--always bringing his
English and Chinese lesson and a COPY
of Matthew in English and Chinese.
At length, one day, he came alone to
visit me. His errand was to ask if he
could be baptized and Join the church.
In the course Of our conversation asked,

Ventilation.

At this season Of the year, says the
National Lire Stock JoHynai, Chicago,
never have open, at the same time, two
doors or windows opposite each other,
which carry the air either over, behind,
or before horses. A door or window at
this time should be opened only on one
side or end. Stables should pc venti-
lated inside by having spout run from
the ceiling and through the roof, and
topped with cap. This avoids strong
currents, and keeps the atmosphere
quite equable, which is necessary for the
good health, not only of horses, but OF
animals of all kinds.
