 REV. MIR. TITUS AT CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.
 Rev. Mr. Samson of Calvary Baptist church exchanged pulpits yesterday with Rev. H. F. Titus of Newton, Mass. Tester day morning large congregation at the Calvary Baptist church listened to the dis course of Rev. MT. Titus, which was on the full growth of the Christian. Last evening, in a sermon similar to the morning discourse, Rev Mr. Titus illustrated some principles not referred Io in the morning. His text was from Hebrews X, 19: Having therefore, brethren boldness to enter into the holiest, by the blood of Jesus" The speaker invited all present, both brethren and others, to follow him in his line of thought and try if possible to accept the gospel. Many Chris tians," said he, ''do not have the peace and joy which they think Christians ought to have. A Christians chief joy should be in being Christian. Christians should have the boldness referred to in the text Jesus, says the apostle to the Hebrews, is the great high priest who is able to save to the uttermost all who make inter cession through him. God gave his only begotten son that whosoever believed on him should not perish, but have eternal life. God will receive the sinner without any change on his part" The speaker urged his hear CTS to try to realize this great truth.
 During the sermon Mr. Titus referred fre- ouently to the text and by several illustra- tions from real life explained the principle that Christ died for sinners. The speaker, stated that he had taken his Illustrations from people of humble circumstances. as those people often appreciate the truth in a beautiful way. Taken altogether the sermon was not only beneficial, but very pleasing
