The Highest JOY.


Believe me, speak it deliberately
and with full conviction, | have enjoyed
many of the comforts of life none of
which | wish to esteem lightly; often
have | been charmed with the beauties
of nature and refreshed with her bounti-
full gifts. | have spent many an hour
in sweet meditation and in reading the
most valuable productions of the wisest
men. / have often been delighted with
the conversation of ingenious, sensible
and exalted characters; my eyes have
been powerfully attracted by the finest
productions of human art, and my ears
by enchanting melodies. l have found
pleasure when calling into activity the
powers of my own mind; when resid-
ing in my own native land, travelling
through foreign parts; when surround
ed by large and splendid companies,
still more when moving in the small
endearing circle of my own family; yet,
to speak the truth before God, who is
my judge, ! must confess | know not
any JOY that is so dear to me, that so
fully satisfies the inmost desires of my
mind, that so enlivens, refines, and
elevates my whole nature, as that which
! derive from religion, from faith in

An Earnest Minister.

There was the true ring in the open
ing sermon of Rev. j. Sanders Reed to
the people of Trinity Episcopal church,
Newark. n. j., of which he has Just
become pastor. | hope, he said, to have
this, first. working church; second, a
missionary church; third, poor mans
church; fourth, praising church; fifth,
reverential church. If / thought the
vestry and people would not join me in
welcoming here Gods poor men and
women, l would resign at once. In
what churches to-day do you see the
poor people? In ritualistic churches
andno because they hear better preach
ing there, but because they like the
service, and feel they are welcome
there. | hope to make Trinity church
home for them. This should be a
praising church. l hope to have here
very soon chorus choir, leading the
people in praising God. No rector
would have a right to select four per-
sons from the congregation to make the
responses in the service for you, and
there is no more authority for having a
quartet to do all the singing. Hearty
congregational music will fill all these
pews. AT the close of the service he
invited the congregation to assist him
in forming chorus choir. When the
offerings were made nearly all of the
congregation arOse.-Selected.

pulpit. Still the rule is otherwise, and
the American ministry, therefore, as a
whole, is body of educated and disci-
plined men. 1t will seem strange to
English notions, but nevertheless the
fact is undoubted, that admittance to
the American pulpit is more strict than
to the English, and the professional
etiquette of the clerical order is more
conserved than among ourselves. The
common notion of English people who
are not acquainted with American life is
that there is liberty, not to say license,
granted to all and sundry in the new coun-
try, so that the regulations and customs
which control social life amongst our
selves are less regarded by the supposed
radical Yankees THAT it is the land
of freedom, and yet can do just what
you please. The reverse is the actual
fact. Democratic institutions tend to
the dominance of fashion, and the rule
of organized sections. The constitu.
ton of the United States is an historic
document. Everybody knows it. 1t
has its specified number of principles,
and its amendments are defined, and
can in like manner be reckoned. SINH
larly all social relationships are deter
mined in constitutional fashion, and
Americans are found, to the amazement
and sometimes the amusement of older
nations, to arrange every detail of life
in cut and dried fashion. They are
an intelligent people, living in the
clear light of modern history. There
is no mist of antiquity out of which
rules and orders dimly loom. Hence
while there is an outward appearance
of freedom, and absence of individual
restraint, there is on all sides of the
American character a very real and
effective orderliness, which gives per-
manence to institutions, great force to
fashion and etiquette, and in some
cases a certain primness and precision
of speech and life which affects all
classes, and is the outward sign of that
deep conversation which is in no modern
nation so strong as in the United States.

Religion at Home.

1t is laughable to see one hunting
high and low for his spectacles when
they have been only showed over his
forehead. But it is not laughable to
see Christians hunting for what they
call opportunities to honor God, while
overlooking such opportunities which
they carry with them wherever they go.
A slovenly carpenter was once heard at
a weekly prayer-meeting to pray with
great fervency for the spread of Christ's
cause-a cause which he disgraced and
hindered in his sphere every time he
stood at his workbench. When he
ended his prayer, hearty "Amen :"
came from servant who put her mis-
tress out of temper hundred times a
day by her carelessness. A clerk also
was there who, although he taught a
class in the mission-school on Sundays,
was always late at his employers store
week days. He whispered "Amen "
too-and meant it, so far as he knew
himself. A lady nearer, as she listened,
resolved to join the church missionary
society, and then went home and found
unreasonable fault with her cook. And
others also felt warmed to do something
for Christ, who never seemed to have
thought that religion, like charity, be-
gins at home. The mechanic who is
powerful in class-meeting, and weak at
his trade, is no credit to the cause he
processes. The servant who drops
tears feelingly at religious services, and
drops dishes unfeelingly in the kitchen
has her tenderness altogether too much
on one side. And il is a moor kind nj
religion which seeks opportunities tC
set others straight, but overlooks its own
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Times.

and ministerial study of the seminary,

ministry are called. This twofold
course usually embraces seven years,
