person; who came to seek and to save
that which was lost; that he was the
highest expression of God in man that
the world has ever received; that he
was one with God, in purpose, in fell
lowship, that he was one with God as
he desired the disciples to be one.
"Thdt they all may be one; as Thou,
Father, art in me and in Thee, that
they also may be one in U.S."
So, while we are not of those who
with mistaken loyalty defy Jesus,
neither do we go with the throng who
would degrade him to the inferior
rank of unrighteousness, taking away
our Masters mantle and clothing him
in purple robed hypocrisy. We have
not so learned Christ. We see ra-
dance in his life that attaches to no
other MANS. 1t stands out and above
all others, an embodiment of the
completest virtue, the sweetest spir-
it, the most tender love, the broadcast
sympathies, the highest heroism and
sacrifice that appears in all the an
nails of time. Like the sun, this love
shines luminous in the moral firma-
ment and gives an impulse with its
impaired rays, to closer relationship
with truth and with the source of
truth. He gave himself that he might
bring us to God. While the lives of
all good men may be likened to stars,
that in their beauty shine resplend
ent, the life of Jesus is most fifty
called the sun, luminary of JOY,
peace, love, far above the grandeur of
the stars, and around which they re-
volve, and this life of Christ is to us
the highest disclosure of God. 1t is
our authority for proclaiming the ul-
innate perfection of man, for he
stands before us as man perfected.
Gods holy spirit was in him as it is
or may be, in all in some degree, and
as it will be in us all in full measure
some time and somewhere, bringing
us "unto the measure of the stature
of the fullness of Christ"
We believe then in one God, whose
nature is love revealed in Jesus Christ
by the Holy Spirit, who will finally
win all mankind to holiness and hap
piness.

REV. Q. H. SHINN IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.

Our Jealous Brother and indefatigable.
never-tiring worker. whose name heads
this communication, spent five days with
me commencing on the afternoon of Feb.
28th, and closing near the noon hour of
9TH inst. This time was spent in going
to, working with, and returning from
our Feasterville church. We held two
days meeting there, during which Bro,
Shinn delivered two excellent discourses
that we're we'll calculated to arouse
such Universalists as may have fallen
into lukewarm condition to quick
ened sense of the opportunities present
ed for renewed efforts in behalf of the
grand cause to which they have vowed
allegiance, and of the responsibilities
resting upon them to lay hold of every
means within their reach calculated to
hasten the coming of the day of deliver
ance OF our great human brotherhood
from the bondage of corruption into
the glorious liberty Of the sons ct God"
The writer also delivered two brief dis
courses during the progress of the meet
ing, that he aimed to render at least not
detrimental to the design of Bro. Shinn's
visit.
During the afternoon Of the second
day of the meeting Bro. Shinn organized
Y. P. G. U. of thirty two members and
called a meeting of the Union for that
evening at the home of Bro. j. A. F.
Coleman, where he was met by the men,
bers and several persons who we're not
members, and had real enjoyable time,
the organizer during the progress of the
meeting embracing the opportunity pre-
sented for instructing the Union in the
work pertaining to the interests of their
organization.
We also at this meeting took action in
another matter which we hope will oper-
ate to the enhaL cement OF the interests
Of our cause, which was the. intimation
Of movement for the organization of
State Conference of the Universalists of
South Carolina. Their name is not
legion, for as compared with those who
are against them they are not many.
Nevertheless there are quite little num-
Der of isolated friends here and there
within the limits of the State, in whom
we hope to arouse sufficient degree of
interest to draw at least some of them
together once year, in order to confer
as to the best means of forwarding the
interests of our Zion.
On the evening of Bro Shinn's arrival
in Columbia he delivered his message to
a small number of friends at the resi-
dence of the writer. On returning there
from Feasterville he organized nice
little Y P. G. U. Tuesday, 9Th inst.
this devoted brother left for Georgia,
and at 500 o'clock A. NJ the writer left
home for his field of labor in North Car
DINA, from which be sends this account.
Bro Shinn is 1.-The right man in the right
place. as viewed from the writer's stand
point. and may the Father all abund-
antly bless him in his labors.

GODS GRACE FOR YOU.
BY REV. WILLIAM BIRCH.
New Zealand.)

The subject of this article is Gods
grace; the aim of the writer is to
prove that it is for you and every hui
man creature.
Cd. 1T is an octiUe influence.
When passing near Warrington Eng
land) in summer, one is surprised to
see for several miles around most of
the trees stunted and without leaf,
blighted by roxious gases from chem
ical works which flourish in that dis
trict There is similar blight in hui
man nature, which stunts the growth
of that goodness which does as one
would be done by, and, forgetting
self, enjoys to save and comfort
others. In this day, we have fur
nished and polished mortal brains,
but dwarfed immortal man. We have
within reach, however, mightier
cou1terbalancing influence, called the
grace of God. AS, in their degree,
sunshine, gravitation and electricity
are Almighty forces, SO grace-energy
gives strength to bear mental and
bodily pain, to overcome inherited
and acquired evil, and to grow as
children of God. "Where sin
abounds grace abounds more exceed
ingly."
(2) 1t is a vitalizing force. In
yond,r room lies man so near
death that one almost hears the click
of its gate; but having had balmy
sleep, he now stretches his links and
with healthy brightness in his eyes
exclaims, 81 feel that | shall not die,
but i've" So when the vilest man is
penitent before God, he feels that he
has escaped from spiritual death and
begun to breathe the life divine.
(3) 1t induces brotherly- kindness
and harmony. Painted and perfumed
by the same hand, the violet greatly
differs from the rose, the hawthorn
from the jasmine, and the parsley from
the mint, but each is pleasant, and all
agree. How difficult to avoid clash
ing in the colors of ribbon and dress,
but in the many shades of green of
garden and forest there l. harmony.
So while grace-energy varies accord
ing to our humility and obedience,
those who receive it combine to re-
veal the beauty and sweetness of a
paradise which glorifies God and
amazes the loveless world.
(4) 1t is everywhere. The most
beautiful OF all flowers is sometimes
found on the verge of the glacier,
while the sweetest is occasionally
hidden on the bank of ditch, and in
Arctic regions with no daylight half
the year, you will find tiny flowers
ready to bloom when the sun comes
to melt their blanket of snow. So in
unlikely places and everywhere God s
grace may be found. Excepting
where chemical works blight the veg
citation and glaring advertisements
disfgure the rocks, there is no spot
without some natural adornment. and
there is no human heart without a
spark of grace. About twelve months
ago, burglar of thirty years crime,
was brought from prison to me, and
he appealed to me to "save" him.
He was the same "cut" of man as
Blue Jim, of whom told the readers
of The UNIvERsALIsT the other week.

PARK RIDGE, y. J., Aug. S.-Mrs.
AlonZo Campbell of this place, the
wife Of a wealthy farmer and under
taker, is said to be the most reliable
weather prophet in Bergen county.
Mrs. Campbell a few years ago re-
ceived slight shock from lightning,
and since that she has been able
20 distinguish the slightest indications
of the approach of thunder storm.
She is affected in a peculiar manner,
becoming irrational and entirely los
ing her senses just before the storm.
Several doctors have prescribed for
her, but none OF them are able to re-
Heve her in the least. She is usually
given an opiate and put to bed until
the storm has passed over.
At the time of the heavy hail storm
which passed over this section on July
13, Mrs. Campbell was entirely free
from her affiietion, and declared that
there was no electricity in the air.
When the heavy electric storm OF July
20 struck the neighborhood Mrs.
Campbell was badly affected, and after
taking sleeping potion, was put to
bed, and remained unconscious for
thirty six hours.
Mrs. Campbell enjoys the best OF
health at all other times.

A Canadian Company Intends to Steal
the Niagara River
LoCKPoRT, N. Y, Aug. S.-The
Welland Power Supply Company, in
corporated at the last session of the
Dominion Parliament, intends to steal
the Niagara river, if the reports are
true.
The charter of the company permits
il to draw unlimited water from the
Niagara river, and to deepen or widen
the Chippewa creek from its mouth to
the point of intersection of the pro-
posed canal, four and One-haIf miles
west.
The company proposes to take the
water through q channel in the mouth
of the Welland river, at a distance of
four and one-half miles from the Mia
CARA river. The water is to be taken
through surface canal to the escarp-
ment near the town of Thorold, to the
brow Of a mountain, with q drop of
only ten feet from the level of Lake
Erie, giving an available fall of 800
feet to the level of Lake Ontario. 1t
is proposed to place the first turbines
$50 feet below, and then to carry the
water by series of falls, each gener-
ating power, to an open raceway,
emptying into Lake Ontario. On the
mountain top at Thorold it is proposed
to build lateral canal long enough to
feed sixty turbines, each of 5000 horse
power capacity. 1t is claimed that
the proposed plan will make IL pos
sible to deliver power at Fort Erie,
