Home Missions and Life

After all, patriotism is not the highest
motive to appeal unto 1t is, indeed, one
of the noblest sentiments, in closest al
lance with the highest, as we see where
Paul speaks of our citizenship being in
heaven, and understand when we really
give allegiance to the King eternal and
begin to know how grand a word is that
the Kingdom of Heaven.
Nevertheless, patriotism is not tie
sentiment which should be all potent in
the Church of Christ. Going as tar as
any one may rightly go with it and TOR it,
the Church acknowledges nobler inspira-
ton. For the love of God, for the love
of man, for the glory of Christ, let us
keep this land Christian. 1t would be an
awful eclipse for our common Chrlstlani-
ty as a saving power in the world if En-
gland and America could ever become
less Christian than now. And sorry
thing would it be for the world and the
hope of its evangelization if the foremost
Christian powers could, by any possibili-
ty, become fatally inoculated with IN
fidelity. The Church needs to be kept
up to the highest motive even the momve
that brought Christ from heaven to earth
Hence it is a damaging thing to put
patriotism before Christ in appeals to the
Church. The Lord and Master of us all
has taught us better while rendering unto
Caesar the things that are Caesars. Home
Missions, like all Christian Missions. has
to do with souls and with life in its rela-
tions to time and to eternity, especially
with souls that find themselves in the
exigencies of frontier or mining lite, fan
from the restraints and helps of the older
and more settled communities, and uu-
able to command them unaided Broth
erly love makes claim that the Church
cannot refuse without refusing the Mas
ter.
Here, as everywhere, Christ must
needs be lifted up if we would see the
best fruit of Christian philanthropy
Home Hissions needs the money of all
men who love their country, but it needs
more the devotion of the Church to the
country, for Christ sake and the truth
sake.
The grand significance of Home Mis-
sions is its relation to the far greater and
all inclusive idea of the world for Christ

This country for the sake of the world Is
the true scope of all endeavor to make
and keep it Christian. We are very
hopeful for our country Gospel IN All

lacking somewhat. Indeed know it is.
Science has accomplished a great deal

not Accomplished" he asked, as he
momentarily pressed with the tip of his
finger that part of his nose precisely be-
tween the visual orbs wearied with the
bridge of his spectacles "Why, sir" he
went on, to the evident delight of every
one, lit is plain from the drift of talk,
and books and periodicals of the day,

promise of a career of glory for us un-
dreamed of hitherto. The thoughtful

pectancy. No doubt about It, We are

ments pause, with a dreary look about
him, which detracts good deal from
the dignity of man, and from the COM
forts of home"

A Positive Truth.

An idea of human reason, like popular
liberty, e. g., may make. no external APP
pearance for whole periods, but its reap
pearance, with an energy Of operation
heightened by its long suppression in the
consciousness of nations, is the most i'm
pressive of all proofs that it has neces-
sary existence in human nature, and is
destined to be developed. A doctrine of
divine reason, like that of justification
by Christ's atonement, is positive truth
which has been lodged in the Christian
mind by divine revelation, and is destined
to universal influence, complete de-
velopment in and through the church,
Notwithstanding that some branches and
ages of the church have lost it out of
their religious experience. Whatever
has been l1alaid either in matter or in
mind, by the Creator of both, is destined
by him, and under his own superintend-
ence, to be evolved; and of all such
necessary matter, be it in natural or in
moral history, we may say that not
a particle of it will be annihilated; it will
pass through the predetermined stages
of an expanding process, and obtain
full exhibition W. q. T. ,Shedd.

Secret of a True Life.

DR.. Arnold, Of Rugby, gives in one of
his letters an account of a sanity sister.
For twenty years, through some disease,
she was confined to kind of crib never
once could she change her posture for all
that time. And yet, says DIR. Arnold,
and L think his words are very beautiful !;
" never saw more perfect instance of
the spirit of power and love and of a
sound mind. Intense love, almost to the
humiliation of selfshness a daily
martyrdom for twenty years during which
she adhered to her early formed resolu-
ton of never talking about herself :;

ing of a dolls cap for child but OF

from every cloud ofimpaired reason which

Home Missions and Patriotism

1t cannot be said that the churches OF
this country are Indifferent to the su-
preme Importance Of keeping it Christian
Taking the several denominations to
gether they mass their forces on the
frontier, and penetrate the QUITO the
way places where the mining-camp is
pitched in remote mountain desolations,
with commendable activity-often with
incommendable rivalry They push
southwark amongst the Freedmen with
a zeal which bears out the honesty OF
the conviction which demanded their
freedom. So that, indeed, it may be
said, that no six millions of the Lord s
poor on the face of the earth is having so
much done for it as this. They ought to
rise and they are rising. All this is
deemed essential to the perpetuity of a
nation selfgoverned. Education and re
ligion, intelligence and virtue, are the
bulwarks of the nations strength-they
constitute it's security. 1t follows that
we cannot afford that ignorance or bar
barism should mass itself anywhere.
Where men are, there are votes Votes
need to breathe an atmosphere of intelli
gence, and to feel the restraints of virtue
So then, on the side of patriotism, Home
Missions finds strong ally. The men
who have these interests committed to
them understand this well and are not
slow to ply this argument. 1t tells, too.
with men who nave no religious convic-
tions and no care for churches as such.
but who know we'll enough that infdelity
and irreligion are as rottenness in the
pillars Of Republic. Caring for their
country they are willing to help keep
the churches and school house abreast Of
the wave of emigration, and without the
church the school house lacks its main
stay. Hence Home Missions, in it's vari-
Gus forms, is probably the most popular
Of all the causes which appeal to the
Christian public. The great public are
interested in this. 1t comes home to
every mans hearth-stone and every man s
patrimony. Patriotism may not care
much about missions, but about Home
Missions it cares a very great deal.
That string is good one to pull to
draw money Gospel IN All Lands.

Come and See.

Master, where abidest Thou2
Lamb of God, It's thee we seel
For the wants which press us now
Other aid is all too weak.
Canst thou take our sins away?
May we find repose in thee2
From the gracious lips to-day,
As of DID, breathes, Come and see.
Master, where abidest thoui
We would leave the past behind
We would scale the mountains brow,
Learning more thy heavenly mind.
Still look is all our lore,
The transforming look to thee:
From the Living Truth once more,
Breathes the answer, Come and see 70
Master, where abidest thou?
How all we thine image best
Bear in light upon our brow,
Stamp in love upon our breast2
Still look is all our might:
Looking draws the heart to thee,
Sends us from the absorbing sight
with the message, Come and see.'
Master, where abidest thou2
All. the springs of life are low,
Sin and grief our spirits bow;
And we wait thy call to go.
From the depths of happy rest,
Where the just abide with thlo,
From the voice that makes them blest,
Comes the summons, Come and see."
Christian, tell it to thy brother,
From life's dawning to its end,
Every hand may clasp another,
And the loneliest brings a friend,
Till the veil is drawn aside,
And from where her home shall be,
Bursts upon the enfranchised Bride,
The triumphant Come and see"
