ness lei Then, there was "a turning TO
others; an ardent soul will not give
over beeause those first invited refuse
the offered grace. ld) Finally there
was fruit Leaving the synagogue of
the Jews, Paul entered the house of
one Justus, hard by, lie now gave
himself specially to the Gentiles OF
the city But his testimony TO the Jews
had not been utterly ffuitles-. The
chief ruler Of the synagogue believed,
with all his house. And so did many
of the Corinthians that is, Of the ido'a
trous inhabitants of the city. Patient
ardor seldom fails of fruit; though it
often gathers most among those who at
first seemed less hopeful.
4. The need the best SAINTS sometifaes haze
Of cher and help from above,--fot some
reason Paul seems TO have fallen into
temporary dependency. This is not
strange. Remember Abraham before
Abimelech, Moses in the WILDERNESS,
Elijah under the juniper tree, John in
Prison, Jesus in GethseInane." WeaTi-
ness OF. body, i'll health, Loneliness in
strange city, may have produced this
sense of weakness in the Apostle. Put
in bis need he was not forsaken. \
voice Of God cheercd him with two.
fold promise II am with thee for pro-
lection and 81 have much people in
this city Here was assurance of divine
sympathy and support, and OF fruit sure
in good time TO be z 'th'red. God does
not speak to us in visions; ; but the
promises here addressed to Paul are
equally meant for Us.
5. TIE strange but nGc ray God has Of
protecting his ssTrdnis.-ln this instance
He did il by means of the Roman Gov
ernor, Gallo. This man was brother
of the celebrated moralist, Seneca. lie
was kindly in his nature; cultivated,
polished and popular. II il not likely
that he knew anything about Chris; or
the Christian doctrine. When, there
fore, the Jews "with one accord, made
insurrection against Paul, and accused
him Of persuading men to worship God
contrary TO the law--probably the Ro
man law-Gallio looked upon the whole
matter a. a strife between Jewish par.
ties. lie declared that it did not con.
cern him. lie drove Paurs Accusers out
of the court. The result was that the
Gentle populaoe took courage TO show
their hatred TO the Jews by an assault
upon their leader. Sostheoes may have
been al the head of Paul's nccuscr-, and
NOV his bittarnes. and violence returns
upon himself; and Gallo looks on with
indifference. Hewas willing that those
who would do injustice should them
selves feel its efFect.. Thus the assault
of the jews upon the APOSTLE was
failure. God made use OF Gallo for his
protection. Help came from source
whence it could not have been expected.
Is not this often the case?

II has been claimed that there il =
strong aud sro~isg sentiment for free
trade 1t the West oven among the Repub
licsIs. The election Of Congressman tc
succeed Haskell Of Kansas, deceased. wal
contested on the tariff issue and the free
trade candidate was badly bssten. IL
1882 Haskell received 23.60l votes, the
Democratic candidate received 10, ZIG
and the Grsenback candidate Q. ITO votes,
Hasksll's msjority over the Democratic
candidate was 4, 4s5. but he received !, 225
votes less than the combined ,oppssition
vote. The district cast more than 26 per
cent Of all the votes cast in the State ut
that election. The free trade Democrats,
therefore, had three things to encourage
them TO put forth every exsrtion to cap.
turc the district. In the election Of 1882
the Democrats and Gresnbacks cast !, 226
more votes than did the Republicans and
this year they were united; they have sue.

field aud pay other campaign expenses.
Large suns were sent TO Kansas from 9th.
or States, aud considerable amount. it il

aturs WAS freely distributed throughout
the fifteen counties composing the district
and free trade lectures were delivered 10

that while these free.trads lecturers who
profcsssd to be Republicans did not open
ly sspouse the cause Of Riggs the free
trade candidate, some Of them held forth
from the came platform, and at the same
meetings with Democratic FREQ traders
