MIR. SHEPHERDS LECTURE

Pursuant to announcement ]. G. Shep-
herd delivered his lecture, "a Pilgrim
age to the Land of Promise" at the
Providence Methodist Episcopal church
on Tuesday evening. OF this lecture
we cannot speak in too high praise,
and advise all who have a chance to
hear it.
From the port OF New York ne took
his hearers to the Azores, to Gibraltar
and Spain, the Mediterranean, Alsiers,
Egypt. to Palestine Jerusalem, JOppa,
the Dead Sea. and the Jordan, Naz-
areth and Capcrneunl, and at last left
them. seated upon the sacred shores
of Galilee.
The whole lecture is one magnifi-
cent gem of word-rainting. Here the
people, manners. agriculture, dora,
architecture. scenery and a thousand
other facts are sorted and with Il deft
and clever hand, and described in Ian
guage at once choice and expressive
There wit flashed ard scintillated like
a rapier in the sunlight and anon,
when the way over which the Savior
passed was pointed out, the feelings OF
the audience were touched, and fancy
could almost hear the winds signing
moaning through the fiC-trecs of Mt
Olive. Mummy and obelisk. Landscape
and palace, flower and Sphinx, river
and pyramid, beautiful sunrise and
dusky Arab, sacred pool and sorrowIug
garden-such a portrayal of many
facts in so beauteous q garb is sell
dom heard in one lecture.
Blue Galilee was his excellent per-
oration. Once more the disciples toilaG
with their nets; the sun set in beauty
and one by one the stars came out and
eoId-clad looked from its placid
waters then. the care-worn Savior
passed, with loving eyes and feet that
fingered upon the pebbly strand-the
quiet night. the solemn spot. the sub
! lime person, phantasy almost heard
! the rustic of an angels wing.
Though young. Mr.. Shepherd is the
superior of many lecturers who have
! heen many years upon the platform
His voice is musical flexible and quite
deep: his enunciation distinct; and hi
gesture and facial expression we'll re-
veal the thought he seeks to utter. W.
may halt by saving his lecture wal
we'll written. spIendidly delivered, anC
we predict and wish for him bril-
