General Gordon,s Fear.

HenOI0k 6OFUOn'6 ear
The bishop of Tasmania, in one of
his recent sermons, told of a story
which brings out the character of a
man whom all the world learned to
The bishop-so says the Sunday Maya
zine-was indebted for the story to
clergyman who had spent some years
in GAIA, Palestine.
One night this clergyman was COM
ing home late, and in the dusk of the
evening, when objects were not very
distinct, he saw what looked like a
man kneeling on the ground by the
side of his horse. The place was not
safe one. Arabs might easily sur
prise the kneeling traveller.
II must go and warn that man."
thought the clergyman. ut will never
do to let hin remain there. He does
not know that he may get into trou
ble."
AS he came nearer, to put his reso-
luton into practice, he was stopped by
words that evidently were not ad-
dressed to himself. A moments listen
ing convinced him it. was the voice of
prayer to which he listened.
"Oh, my God, take me away out of
myself, lest fall; make me to look
unto Thee, that may humble myself
and be like Thee" said the voice of the
kneeling man.
The clergyman hesitated to interrupt
the strangers devotions, but he could
not persuade himself to leave him in
danger. After waiting for a time he
! approached, saying as he did so, Sir,
I beg your pardon, but you are in dan
ger here"
The man rose, and the clergyman's
surprise was great when he found him
self standing face to face with General
Gordon.
What are you doing out here in this
dangerous placer" he asked, not yet
recovered from his establishment.
"This morning received telegram
from England, asking me to undertake
a mission which had longed to under
take all my life," replied the general.
"It filled me with such citation that
felt I might get into trouble through
pride, and I thought I would just get
upon my horse and go away by myself
to humble myself before Cod
1t was thus that the noble heart of
Gordon met one of the great trials of
characteristic honor of being chosen
to lead in an important enterprise.

the mission Of which he spoke was
the one in which he was employed
