It is said of Charles G. Finney, the great

fact was very marked in all the powerful
revivals where Mr.. Finncy labored. Per.
haps not the many were led IN this way,
for as in our day. only the few hidden ones
got down into the deem places with God.
but there were always those who learn the
secret of the Lord as He loves to reveal it
to the willing and obtdient; and these Mr.
Finuey considered as mcs important allies
in carrying on a revival.
His question on entering place TO begin
meetings, was. not who will help III the
