MEN and women whose hearts are
fountains of pity, whose eyes run down
with tears, whose Threats get hoarse
with crying, these are mighty before
God. The spring and fountain of many
a revival, of many a deliverance for
Israel, when all things are reviewed
and explained, will be found in some
poor bed-ridden believer who cried to
God from some little village soden in

spiritual death.

A proyidential DENOMINATION,

A curious story comes from Wenghsi-
anlg. The town suffers from inunda,
tons of the Yellow river, and two years
ago movement was started by the To-
cal magistrate to build breakwater.
The chief difficulty lay in the want Of
sufficiently large stones. Suddenly,
however, to the establishment of the
community, heavy storm Of wind and
rain deluged the country, and brought
down An endless quantity of huge
stones exactly suited to the purpose
The pc ople naturally regarded the Incl
dent as direct manifestation of Divine
power in aid Of a great public under.
taking, and the governor OF the district
cites fact which conclusively proves
the supernatural origin of the event.
One of the stones, he says, which was
as large as house, was inscribed with
several characters two of which, mean.
ing" W ork," and stone" respectively he
was able to decipher. Graphic.

NETT HER Paul nor his colleagues were

While the blind and deaf il that hard,
