WELCOME TO MRS. c. A. souLE.

A soiree of the members and friends of
st. Pauls Universalist Church, Glasgow,
was held in the church on Friday even
ing, July 2, to welcome the arrival of
Rev. Mrs. G. A. Soule from America. The
hall was well filled, and the company sat
down to tea at o'clock, the Rev. DIR. J.W.
Hanson, pastor, occupying the chair,
supported on the platform by the guest
of the evening, the Rev. H. Williamson,
of Dundee, and others. Letters read by
chairman from the Rev. ID. Macrae, Dun
dee, and the Rev. r. Spears, London. Mr.
Williamson asked the blessing, when,
after pleasant tea, and praise being
sung, the Rev. DIR. Hanson addressed the
meeting. He expressed the pleasure he
felt at presiding on the occasion and in
extending cordial and hearty welcome
in the name of the congregation to Mrs.
Soule. He characterized the church as
being her offspring; she was the mother
who gave'it birth, who in its infancy had
fostered and nurtured it. She had for il
all the love of mother and could never
forget it. In other appropriate remarks
he concluded by giving a warm right
hand of cordial welcome to Mrs. Soule.
Rev. Mr.. Williamson next addressed
the meeting. He said he was glad to
have the privilege once more, and espe-
cially on such an suspicious occasion as
the present, to convey his hearty good
wishes, and join in giving new welcome
to Mrs. Soule, the faithful, earnest, de-
voted and good missionary of the grand
est cause any person could be engaged
in. She had come first of all as an am
bassador, to make known the reality Of
the promises, the doctrines OF true Uni
versalism and that God is love = many
said that the doctrine was too good to be
true. Now she had come to see how we
were getting on and how the cause had
prospered during her absence. He re-
viewed the past labors of Mrs. Soule and
of Mr.. Crosley, her successor, who had
with his own hands contributed so much
in the fitting up of the present place of
worship, of Mr.. Smith, who had held the
fort for time until Dr. Hanson's arrival,
and concluded by expressing his person
al gratitude for the help he had himself
received from Mrs. Soule and MIR. Cros-
ley, and hoping We would not keep her
long, as she was wanted in Dundee and
in the east Of London. Mr.. Williamson

having to leave for Dundee Immediately
afterward, the chairman proposed 6
hearty vote of thanks, which was cor
daily responded to.
| Mrs. Soule was received with hearty
applause. When it first became known
| to her that she was to be welcomed at a
public soiree she had begun to prepare
speeches for it, and for the last twelve
days she was sure she had made forty
good ones. But now, when the occasion
had arrived, they had all deserted her.
On looking round the hall and seeing SO
many familiar faces, the dear old Sun
day-school banner on the wall, her old
man Friday (Mr. Allan, she was deeply
affected and could find no words strong
enough to express the great joy che felt
in being amongst them once more. And
then how odd it seemed to see DR.. Han
son occupying the place in the chair which
she herself had filled in the times gone
past We talk about womens rights, but
the men had their rights now, and she was
now the guest of st. PauPs. She alluded
to the hours OF pain she had last year,
and her prayer that God would only let
her live till she saw old Scotland again
and now prayer had been answered, and
tonight was one OF the happiest mo-
ments of her life. She recalled to mem
DRY the first meetings Of the church in
Stockwell street, then composed of seven
men, boy and herself; the services in
Mechanics Hall and when she had intro
duced Mr.. Crosley; the last soiree she
was with them, when she had to say
good-by to all; and the gift from them of
the bracelet, which che always carried
with her and which represented to her
mind, work. sacrifice and love. Stand
ing as she did tonight, wearing the same
dress she wore on parting with them four
years ago, she was filled with gladness to
find that there were still earnest hearts
here and she had to thank the early men,
bers for their fidelity and faithfulness in
keeping up the church, and that it had
got foothold now.
Since then she had preached in twenty
four of the American States, she had
travelled 10000 miles to keep up the mis-
sion, and urged upon them to go on and
keep together, be faithful now and ever
to rouse up and equip ourselves for a
more successful campaign in Scotland
than has ever been experienced.
Mr.. Smith, from Edinburgh, Mr.. A.
IRE, from Larbert, and Mr.. Benson after
ward addressed the meeting.
During the evening the proceedings
were enlivened with songs and recita-
tons given by various friends, and Dr..
Hanson made presentation of books, in
the name of the church, to Miss Mitchell
and Messrs. Allan and Currie, for SER
vices rendered.
An enjoyable program was brought to
close by vote of thanks to the chair
man and the company singing "Auld
Lang Syne," DR.. Hanson pronouncing
the benediction.

four years ago. This term possibly may
be brief, and very likely the last in a long
ministry of fifty-one years. 1 am here,
partly self-called, to help through the
experimental stage of a movement looking
to the establishment of regular Sabbath SER
vices in Grace church, and the resumption
of Christian labors on the part of our people,
now weak in numbers and resources. The
disadvantages under which must labor, and
the embarrassments which surround our
common work are many and great; and the
measure of success, for time, at least must
be small,-maybe only failure awaits us.
The movement to which have alluded is
the result of proposition coming from few
estimable and influential people of the Epis-
copal church, too few, like our own, for the
maintenance alone of public worship, and
therefore associated until now with the Con-
gregationalists and Baptists. Feeling that in
belief and methods of work they were more
in sympathy with us, they proposed that we
should come together, not upon common
creed platform, nor in surrender of church
preferences, but upon the common ground
furnished us in the religion of Christ, there
to unite in common labors for the upbuild-
ing of his church, and in hearty co-opera-
ton with all Christian believers of whatever
name, in ministries of grace and love. This
proposition rests partly upon the belief that
there is room for these common labors, or
for our associated efforts in the line of Chris
tian duty. There is no thought to antag-
onize other bodies of Christians, but only to
live and labor with them in fraternal way,
and to contribute our efforts for the advance
ment of the common cause.
We hope to be able to announce at an early
day that arrangements have been perfected
whereby public worship may be maintained
in our church on each Lords day for the
year to come, and work again prosecuted in
the several departments of Christian labor.
This now may be said, that, until farther no.
tice regular services will be held in Grace
church each Sabbath morning and evening.
