The Modern Preacher.

A result of the new form of supply
and demand is seer in the appearance
of the modern preacher. He rarely
now, unless of the very old school,
wears any distinguishing mark. The
white .'choker'' has gone among the
fossils. The preacher IN the street is
no longer TO be picked out by his
dress. by his u%nctuous expression, his
solemnity of mien, or the dignity of
his bearing. He is in the swim, and
an undistinguishable part of it. He
has the alert look of q man of the
world. His eyes are wide open and
he sees what is going on, and he IS at
no loss to know what it all means.
The simplicity and trustfulness of the
ton in the western minister. No
bunko operator ventures to address
him on the street; and when he makes
A bargain of any kind he is 4 deft
trader, and there is no possibility of
his being o~yar-reached. The keen
ness of the circuitrider in the matter
of q horse trade has almost attained
the dignity of a proverb.
PROFESSIONALLY it is better that the
present preacher should have this
shape than that which he possessed in
olden times. He is nov live member
of the community, and takes an active
part in all its enterprises. He does
not 90 incoming about when he is out
of his pulpit, his feet on the earth and
his thought leagues away, engaged in
the solution of some complex spiritual
problem. He is among men, and of
them in body as well as spirit. He
can interest people because he knows
the world which they inhabit, and can
address them on points which they can
svmpathiZe with and comprehend.
lie has dotted the cassock and donned
the business coat of ordinary men.
The shovel hat has given way to the
Derby or glittering 'tile.n 1t is well
that he has thus changed. Tor now he
can reach down from the height of the
pulpit and manipulate the affairs of
everyday life, He can mix enough
earthly matter with his spiritual
%dranghts to commend them to human
palates and to permit the belief on the
part of the thirsty drinker that he is
quailing something which he can taste.
Much OF the waters of eternal lifc'
dealt out by the preacher OF earlier
days was of the Barmacidc character,
neither tasted nor celebrating. The
neare1 the preacher can get to the
human side of the people, the more
effective will he be rs their guide and
teacher. -ChtcagO Times.

GRANT GAINING.

What the General Says About the Sit
neutrality-suspicious. Medical State
ment.
Gen. Grant gained much in the earlier part
of last week. IN Wednesday Dr.. Newman said:
"Gen. Grant is very much better. He conversed
readily with those around him, and seems TO be
quite eheerfnland happy. He is getting dress
ed in his trousers and vest and dressing gown.
There is a great improvement in his condition.
The color of the skin is different. He looks
like a healthy man. He is buoyed up by faith.
The prayers of the people of the whole
country-ofP rotestants, of Catholics and of He
brews-have been offered up for him, and they
are being answered. The general now believes
he will get well. He feels, and l feel, that the
applications of so many millions of people for
such q contamination will be answered. There
is a grand chance, 1 think, of the general get
ting well again. Ihave not seen the physi-
clans, and cannot say that they share my views.
His improvement may be credited particularly
to the power Of mind over matter. To day, as
I parted from him, he pressed my hand ard
said: Thrice have / been in the valley OF l. !,
shadow of death, and thrice have I come out
sgain."

The %glandular swelling has at no time been
larger than a hens egg, and from that down to
the size of a pigeons egg. II is located at the
angle of the right jaw. 1t has never entrely
disappeared since it came, months ago. The
swelling is due first to irritation of the growth
and finally to the progress of disease in the
glands themselves. There is no pos
tive evidence at present that the,
though the presumption is that they
are diseased; the disease does not extend TO
nor affect any of the processes of the generals

not going i'll that direction. The disease is
spreading very gradually backward in the back
part of the throat and behind the palate. 1t
has communicated somewhat to the back part
OF the nose, in front of and above the palate.
Iherei is no lump on the tongue. 1t is a small
ulcer, away back on the side of the tongue. It
has never been shown to its whole extent, but
it is a small ulcer, irregular in shape and from
a quarter to a half-inch in diameter In case

patient by the Temporary arrest Of the disease.
The atmosphere of mountains or the West would
in fair weather, be better than the salt air OF the
seabord. In all generous cases of the throat
there are complications of irritation about the
throat, which should be called accidents of the
disease, and 1t is these complications that have
given trouble, rather than the steady progress OF
the disease. In this case the complications are
swelling of the throat, increase of Inflammation,
spasms. he~morrhage and increased flow of mu.

Six drops or minims of morphia are given
each twenty-four hours, just enough to control
the pain and induce sleep. Without morphia,
the pain would at times be unbearable. The
general takes for food one to two tumblerfuls,
of a mixture of beef extract and egg and milk
every two to four hours, night and day. He
rellshed a little clam broth yesterday as much
AS he relishes anything. The general usually
reclines in the chair attired in knitted under
wear, on his feet knitted wool moccasins, a
brown dressing gown trimmed with silk and
belted with a heavy cord. Over his lap is spread
a silk and satin quilt filled with down, while
npon his head he wears a silk cap, which he
has long, worn to protect his head from attacks
of neuralgia.

The Winnipeg SUMS correspondent a. Fort
Qu'Appelle tclegraphs:
had an interview with Norbert Welsh, q
.half-breed trader. who had a stock of goods at
Moose Woods, trading for MI. Finnerty, OF
this place. About the time the rebellion broke
out, Welsh, accompanied by DR.. Willonghby
and Alexander Mcintosh, of Saskatoon went
down to Eerr Brothere' store on business.
They started to return next morning,
when friendly half -breads told them
ther would be arrested. They then
decided to profess hat they had come to have
an interview with Riel, and proceeded to the
house of Baptiste Richelieu, where Riel was
staying. He said very little for about half an
hour, when about fifty men came up, when,
turning to DIR. Willoughby, he broke out:
Nov, doctor, the day has arrived when those
who have not been good will have to suffer. I
must rule or perish. / shall be king or die. :"
He than told the doctor he would give
him one week to make his peace with
God, giving as his .reoson that Saska-
tatoon had offered to send forty men to
assist Battleford last summer. He then said
to Welsh that he was not q true half breed,
and that he also must die. Riel told them that
he had been promised assistance from Fenians,
Russians and others. He had told the men
who went to Montana for him that their plans
were useless, and that unless they adopted his
be would net accompany them They agreed
70 do so, and acting on his advice took mp
