The Sermon preached Monday night
at the Presbyterian church by It's pas
tor, Rev. John S. Park, listened 10 by
large and appeeeiative audience,
and we regret that it caun 3t be deliy-
cred in church OF larger seating ca
pacity. The subject was Ambitious
Young Men, and the contrast be-
tween Absolem on the one hand, and
Moses on the other, was sharply chosen
as also was their temporal prospects,
choice of lie. and manner OF death
and future reward.
Mr. Park is an eloquent speaker,
rich in his Illustrations, foreible in de-
livery and converted TO the service OF
the master, aud we believe he will be
an instrument for the accomplishment
OF much good in our city, and in builG-
ing up the Presbyterian church.
