Preaching from the Heart.

1t is only when minister breaches
out of his own heart that he reaches
the hearts of others. A purely intel
lectual sermon stops with the intellect
a doctrinal sermon is nothing more
than a spiritual opiate. But let man
utter what he has felt and known, let
him touch the harp-string that has vi
brated in his own soul, and there
comes that hush and spell over an au-
dience, that chained attention, that
lifting of faces which seems like a
white tablet for Gods finger to write
on. Who has not fel. the Irresistible
power of a hidden experience inter
preted by another soul? This is the Sc
cret of all oratory, of all sympathetic
power of man over man. The great
est preachers are not those who may
lay claim to the highest scholarship,
who are profound philosophical think
ers or doctrinal giants, but whose large
hearts have throbbed with the deepest
spiritual experience. "Out of the
abundance of the heart the mouth
speaketh." These are the men who
can hold on vast audiences and sway
them as the wind sways forest.
Their language may be plain, their
style unpublished, their manner awk-
ward, but they know the stops and
keps of the human heart as the organ
ist knows his instrument, and all the
solemn and sweet music of life an
swers to their touch.-Zion'S Herald.

Talk.

The power to converse we'll is very
great charm. You think anybody can
talk. How mistaken you are! Any
body can chatter, anybody can change
idle gossip. Anybody can recapitulate
the troubles Of the kitchen, the cost OF
the last new dress, and the probable
doings of the neighbors. But to talk
wisely, instinctively, freshly and de-
lightfully is an immense accomplish
ment. 1t implies eXertion, observa
ton, study of books and people, and
receptivity of impression. Plato ban
ished the musicians from his feasts
that the charms of conversation might
have no interference: but in our later
fashions many prefer music rather
than the gossip of the hour, which Of
ten degenerates into trivialities weari-
some and common place.

WAIT AND SEE.-"I never let BARNS
or fools see my pictures until they are
DONE" said Scotch artist to me once,
quoting a familiar proverb Of his coun-
trymcn. We are all but BARNS in
Gods sight, and we sadly play the fool
in regard to His providcntial dealings.
AS no artist is willing to have judg-
ment pronounced upon painting or
statue until the work is completed, 50
our heavenly Teacher bids us possess
our souls in patience. "What l do
thou knowcst not now, but thou shalt
know hereafter.n We must wait and
see. This world is but the preparatory
school, in which character is Oh the
easel or under the clisel; exhibition
day will come in another world.
Gods hand lays OH dark colors very
often. His chisel cuts deep. No trial
of our faith is joyous but grievous
nevertheless, afterward, it may work
out the eternal weight of glory-Er.

RoUsING MEN NEEDED.-Rousing
men are needed in the pulpit TO arouse
the occupants of the pews. The day is
fast passing when the polished essay
and the ponderous dissertation is the
ideal sermon, but earnest communica-
tons of Divine truth, dressed in the
language Of the store, the office, the
street are demanded. The need to day
is not man who CAL make sermons,
but one who can mold manhood.
Churches are demanding such u sup

A Christ-Like Deed.

The following touching incident
which drew tears from my eyes, was
related to me short time since, by q
dear friend who had it from an eye.
witness of the same. 1t occurred in
the great city of New York, on one OF
the coolest days in February last:
A little boy about ten years old was
standing before shoe store in Broad
way, barefooted, peering through the
window and shivering with cold.
A lady riding up the street in a
beautiful carriage drawn by horses
finely caparisoned, observed the little
fellow in his forlorn condition, and
Immediately ordered the driver to
draw up and stop in front of the store.
The lady, richly dressed in silk, alight-
ed from her carriage went quietly to
the boy and said:
My little fellow, why are you look
ing so earnestly in that window ?"
Il was just asking God to give me a
pair of Shoes" was the reply. The la
dy took him by the hand and went in
to the store and asked the proprietor if
he would allow one of his clerks to go
and buy her half u dozen pair of stock
ings for the boy. He readily assented.
She then asked him for basin of wa
ter and towel, and he replied: Ger
tainly," and quickly brought them to
her.
She took the little fellow to the back
eart of the store, and removing her
gloves, knelt down, washed those little
feet and dried them with the towel.
BY this time the young man had re-
turned with the stockings. Placing a
pair upon his feet, she purchased and
gave him a pair of shoes, and tying
up the remaining pairs of stockings,
gave them to him, and patting him on
the head, said: II hope my little fel-
low, that you feel more comfortable"
AS she turned to 60, the astGnished
lad caught her hand and looking up in
her face with tears in his eyes, answer
ed her question with these words !:
"Are you Gods wife? ?"

WISE WoRDs.-A century and a
half ago an English lady, writing to
her sister, said, "a wrong and over
indulgent conduct of parent to chill
dren is the greatest cruelty to them
for if they never meet with coDtradic-
ton till they are of age to engage in
the great concerns of life. how will
they be able TO sustain the disappoint-
ments and notifications they may en-
counter in this world? But a per-

you believe a Christian can blamelessly
commit murder? Quickly you answer
No Should a Christian do that
thing, you would spare no pains to
bring him to Justice, and you would no
longer believe in his Christianity! Is
it Il less sin for a Christian to stand face

the dead of night-watches for revenge,
or done in the open day amid the
sounding cannon, the rattling shot,
and bugle call? All! but you claim it
is for some great cause of justice that
the battles rage, and right will con-

stronger army is victor. AS two men
fight, the stronger gains. Why"
Because Of superior strength. Let us

of view, taking for our guide the Book
of books; referring always to the in
struction given in the blessed Bible
