WEDNESDAYS PROCEEDINGS.
After the usual morning services
Rev. Thomas e. Mattindale. Of New
Castle. preached an eloquent sermon
from the text, "Ye should show forth
the praises OF Him. who hath called
you out OF darkness Into His marvel
GUS light" First Peter, 3, 0.
After abiding to the separa tion OF
families on this earth. he spoke OF the
glorious light OF heaven, and re-
ferred to ride he had through the
country on a dark night, when he
seemed enveloped in gloom. and com.
ing into the city where the lights were
burning brightly made q change In
his feelings, reminding him OF the mar
Vicious light OF heaven,
He also referred to the light that
shone on the countenance of Chris
tlans md on tho salnted dead. Paurs
countenance glowed with this light as
he rode into Damascus. Dir, Matlack
said on the night he was converted and
rode hone, the stars looked like great
suns, We all wanted more light, mir
rors OF light to reflect the praise OF
God. He said all should praise Jesus,
remark. lie referred to the decree of a
Caliph that HE Vizler should be put to
death. and any man who spoke in his
favor should be sin. llarly executed.
An old Arab continued to praise tho
dead Vizler. The Callph sent for him
and inquired why he did so2 He re-
piled when he was poor and cast
down the Vlzier took hold OF him, put
clothes on him, fed him, and all he
possessed he owed TO him, therefore
he would DO worse than monster II
he should ceuse to praise him. We
stood In the same relation to Christ as
the Arab did 10 the Vlzler, md the
refusal to praise him Is monstrous.
When he concluded Rev. J. b. Quigg
