Incarnation of Christ.

The power of God doth brightly shine
in the creation, the wisdom of God may
clearly be discerned in the government
of things but the incarnation of God is
that work, is that dispensation of grace,
wherein the Divine goodness doth most
conspicuously display itself. How, in
deed, possibly could God have demon
strated a greater excess of kindness to-
ward us, than by thus, for our sake and
good, sending his dearest Son out of his
bosom into this sordid and servile state,
subjecting him to all the infrmities of
our frail nature, exposing him to the
worst inconvenience OF our low condi-
ton? What expressions can signify, what
comparisons can set out the stupendous
vastness of this kindness? Psalm xxxvi,
6; evil, 4. If we should imagine that
great prince should put his only son "a
son most lovely and worthily most be-
loved) into rags, should dismiss him from
his court, should yield him up into the
hardest slavery merely to the intent that
he thereby might redeem from captivity
the. meanest and basest of his subjects,
how faint resemblance would this be of
that immense goodness, of that incom-
parable mercy, which in this instance the
King of all the world hath declared to-
ward us his poor vassals, his indeed I'M
worthy rebels Dr. Isaac BarroaO.

borrow their heavenly luster and lowell
ness from Christ, the true Sun of Right
eousness.
I remember standing gazing on one of
the sunsets in the Holy Land, near the
shores of the Dead Sea. The side of a
mountain sloping toward its leaden cav
ernous depths, and which shortly before
seemed to partake of the sterility around,
became all at once lit up like sheet of
living fire. 1t was the myriad clusters
OF red anemones, which clothe Palestine
like carpet in early spring, that were
kindled and transformed into ruby splen-
dor as the flaming orb of day descended
over the heights of Moab: picture of the
promises of God, which have new
beauty and glory impaired to them when
seen in Christ, under the radiance of
One "above the brightness of the sun; :"
ay, and we may also add, reaching down
to the very brink of humanity's dead and
deadest sea shores.-J r. Macduf, d. d.

Church Hospitality.

How many of the really excellent and
earnest Church people who give them
selves and their means to the work of
Christ ever think of a smile at the church
door? Yet that smile given to a stranger,
the token and warmth of a Christian
greeting, as you enter the door or as you
pass out of it to your home, whether in
the city or in the country, is witness
that you give of your sunshine and good
nature to others, and that as far as in
you lies, you help to make the house of
God attractive and inviting to others. 1t
requires but little tact in good man
or woman to see who are strangers at
church and to contrige to extend to them
Just the word of greeting that draws
heart to heart; and if the Christian
brethren who are about returning to their
parish and homes would only remember
this In all congregations, not for one
Sunday but until it becomes the instinc-
tive habit of Christian courtesy, it is
safe to say that nothing would do more
to extend rector efforts to increase his
audiences, and nothing would do more to
draw communicates, whether men or
women, more truly into the atmosphere
of divine opportunity. There should
never be a chilliness or a cloud at the
church door. Who will not give the
smile or the hand of true sympathy to
the new corners and thus help to draw
hearts nearer to one another in the
places where they 60 to meet their God

this change took place in her, and could
not listen to her story without tears |
She ascribed it to the death of her child.
and to a Scotch gentleman, from whom
she had painting lessons. "I owe all to
this man, who has exercised such bene-
fetal influence on my religious views, vet
people talk so much evil of him, and of
my relations to him." At another time
she said The whole construction of
philosophical conclusions which I had for
merly built up now find to be based on
nothing nothing has remained, and what
should we be in life if we had no faith
and no conviction that there is a God
who governs the world and each single
one of u.s. feel the necessity of pray

with religious books in all languages, and
that she recommended some of them to

ments. Her own English Liturgy, with
the grand and simple forms of its prayers
and benedictions, with the much richer
number of appointed lessons of Holy
Scriptures, especially of the Old Testa-
ment, with its sermons confined to
modest duration of time, pleased her
more but she acknowledged with graft
tude and admiration the fact that the in
tellectual hero who was the first to raise
the demand of absolute sincerity in the
life of faith, and thereby brought on the
Reformation, was German"

1t is not often that two preachers
could gainsay each others deliverances
with such fine effects as that which must
have been produced by Drs Blair and
Robertson in Edinburgh some time dur
ing the last century. 1t is an old story,
but worth repeating, which tells how on
a certain Sabbath morning DR.. Blair, ex-
patiating with such eloquence on the
charms Of virtue, at length exclaimed
" My brethren if virtue were embodied.
the world would fall in love with her
His colleague DR.. Robertson, following
him on the same day, recalled what his
hearers had been told that morning Of
the triumph which virtue embodied
would achieve. Ny brethren, said
he, virtue has been embodied, and the
world crucifed her.

EARLY yesterday morning an attempt
was made to burglarize Hollis Postofice
book store. The thieves broke oat n win
dow of the transom in the rear and en-
deavored to reach a lock through the
opening. Failing in their efforts they be-
gan to take out another pane when they
awokc young Thomas WATSON. who sleeps
in the store. WATSON at once arose, when
the sound of his movements was over
heard by the burglars who fed, and no
further efforts were made to effect an en-
trance.
Speaking of burglaries. A few nights
ago thieves broke into the office Of A.
