The word of God like the eye of God is very penetrating and all searching/it discovers to man his sins, and also i reveals his Saviour. It shows human weakness, hut at the same time points, to the means of strength. Our ignor- ance and infirmity is laid'bare under ita light, and in this condition, it leads the ainceresoul to vast resources pf wisdom .and power. In our dependence and poverty, to whom shall we go-? Here is manifested riches of mercy and grace in. Christ J.esus.’ Tt is an inspired word; ■and shall we allow any finite thing .to come between us and the possibilities it presents, relating to our sanctifica- tion ? : ■. Imbedded in this passage of Scripture may be found a great fund of instruc- tion concerning Christ, Hia reality is .one of.the prominent doctrines of the apostle. To this we cling all the more tenaciously in an age when" men are trying to put him out of the way, or niaVchim a mere myth in their systems or sentiments. ( It Is a sterling and thrilling fact, that now, as from the beginning, lie 13 nigh thee ;. in thy tfsart and ill thy month, where con- fession I b made unto salvation. The French saint Fenelon was right, when dying he corrected' the quotation kindly meant to comfort him, by de- claring with Paul: “ I knqW him whom —(not ia whom; I have believed,” etc. So let us brush away every proposition that comes between the soul and . its Saviour. • . • ’ .' ./;/.■ ■ ' Til® paraliolia style of explaining away the real .Christ was here referred to, and the speaker proceeded to argue that ove see Jesus, in, every element of our nature. ;• Tiiis does not lower him. He assumed it to raise us into a purer nnd perfect manhoid. Je.us tiecnme the Bon of man and this h umacity, in its relatipn to our s tlva- tuin is the lower par t of Jacob’s ladder. Cut it olf and we are.bereft of the only means of elevation. Hia was a com- plete human life. He had a mind under all human conditions. He was a worker, and is a brother to every sou and daughter of toil. Is eligible to membership in all Workingmens's as- sociations. Errors at this point in the investigation of his nature, ate com- paratively harmless, provided the spiritual life of the Church is not ex- tinct..' . /'';': ' / . The views of. a Beecher, /Bishop Foster, Thomas or Curry,, can pass simply for what they are worth, with- out affecting seriously that wonderful life, which is the light of men. It is when we come to the point where the two natures join—tiie divine in the human, timt the subject rises beyond comparison or even compre- hension, IVe admit the. theory of heredity. Beep and far-reaching, however, as the depravity of our race has gone, Jesus can remove it. Through the second Adam wc may become as pure and holy as the first when created ill, the image of God.. He came to re- store the true nature of man, and his record all along the ages is " mighty to save.” . ..:■■■ •■ ' In this reai Jesus to-day we Have an antidote to sin. Xo soul-wound beyond the efficacy of his power to cure. Healed, we become blood of his blood, and his , life dwelleth in us. There is nothing lie has in himself hut I may have through'faith iri him. Tins is the fellowship unfolded in our text. Attain- ing his righteousness, I am saved; saved from.all sin, nr.d unto everlasting life with the Father, and .with his Son Jesus Christ. Paul and His Carsor. The discourse of Rev. J. B. Brady in the Ocean Grove Auditorium on .Sun- day evening, Aug. 29th, was founded on a clause ill 2 Timothy; 5: 8—“ I have finished my course." The preicher declared that ofall men, next to the divine man and Muster, our LorJ himself, Paul waa the most, nota- ble character in all history. He referred to him in his Christian experience, his wonderful power as a .writer, his work -as a moral reformer, his genius as au ecclesiastical organizer, ■ a. founder of churches, and a tireless worker: ih win- riirig souls, whom lie sought to bring ;o Christ, out of love for' Christ and love for men. ' '• v He referred to the locality-and cir ciin'stances of his birth ; his early edu- cation, and his graduation atlfie age of 22, tinder the auspices offiamiiHei; then his marriage to one of the, maidens of Judea, and suhsequentiy.; his hatred -of the Xaziirine, andgail who as-uim-d that despised name. He was a magazine of infuriated rage against thc -sect culled Christians. .His journey to Daniasciis and his. object, were then discussed— eight days of travel; thoughts' of the work on which lie was intent; some re- membrance of the old prophecies: a sudden conviction; a strangB voice cry-, ing unto him, “ 3aul, Saul, why .perse- cutest; thou :iue 2” and his extraordinary conversion. . Now for this young man what is the will of the Lord ?' First, sojilude, crinv- muniogs with the.great themes pf relig- ion as revealed to hia fathers.. Then he began to preach, and then persecution singled him out for its concentrated rage, hooked upon witli fear and sus-' picion by the disciples, he had entered the course and kept right ori. Heiinds a companion iri Barnabas, the exhorter from Cyprus, They became evangelists. He lias a vision, and goes to Tarsus; toils at-the trade nf a tentrmaker, arid weaves in mighty thoughts and purposes which have for centuries shook the world. The revivals at Anlioeh and other points, amidst perils and stoning*, followed1 .- He enconntere and settles the difficulties aliniit circumcision'; he travels ip Trass, nnd dallies not amid ejassic'antiquities, but is soon following the heckonirig hand into Macedonia. Grid is with hi til in the Philippian prls-i on, and lie keeps on his course. .Theii he.is found nt Berea, and stnnds alone for God at Athens/ Next in/Corinth, that -Parisian• London of the. East, and in its abyssmn! wiekednesB prnelaims Christ crucified. At Thessalmiica he took time to write two of his Epistles, and goes up to Jerusalem for the fourth time. From council there lie is off to Ephesus, where the jealous Deinc; trus raised ri. riot; hut the Church is established, and. he is still on the course, . That greateeelesirislicnl gun, theFirsi Letter to the Coririthiahs, is - now writ ten, ending with the publ'unest passage in any language, on love—the golden chain that hinds believers em/churches together and makes nien God-like. Again at Trohs, and over into Mace- donia, his lilisy.life.is full of res porisi bilily. He writrs .Epistles, meets Titus, and attends, tbe first Methodist confer ence at Corinth. While here iris letter to Galatia was penned, .and that won- derful Epistle to the Romans written. It stands as a vast cathedral, one cor - ner signifying universal ruin /another, tho remedy for sin ; a third,- the duo trine of justification by faith; the fourth, those good svorks which -follow, and. in the centre a crowned T’hracian declar- ing, “ I am not ashamed of thegospel!” .We now find him. using as helpers the godly women he met, and pressing on to Ceserea, lie' is cast into a Roman prison; hut rnyulhj mini* to h«tr him. His appeal to Cicsar necessitated his go- ing lo. Rome, arid the events of iris jour- neyings, shfp-wreck.:perils,' privations and Indomitable- courage, were-dwelt upon with exhaustive power in delinea- tion. -. • ■ . -The preacher, in picturing-Paul's last years-and death scene, brought, vividly to remembrance ilie .untiring zeal by which the.great apostle was actuated to the, latest moment of his life, and then, wlien the work of the executioner .was done, liis entrance amid tiie acclaim ol martyrs, prophets, angels, into tiie pres- ence of his Lord, and liis reward, from the. righteous Judge, in a crown of life -white the work he set in motion rolls on through the centuries, brihging.gli.iry to Clirist and souls'to heaven. ' Blessings at Ocoan Grove. :/ilY MRSwA/ L/TIUTER^DUKOUR. X . Haying been ii sojourner, for. t>ie .past two months in this beautiful city by the sea, I cannot refrain, from expressing the deep feeling of gratitude that fills my heart; first, to the Giver of all gocnl. for guiding me., to this .sweet.haven of re^i ; and second, for the pleasant con- sideratioh and Christian love extended to me by ell around. - I have wondered ifin ill the world; tiierc-eAi5to another incuiporated town where such., perfect rest and peach is found from care ’ ; such, complete freedbm^ from formal cbhveh- tioimlities ; such congenial.aocial inter- course, combined with (iiiily Christian privileged, such exemption from the multiplicity of annoyances consequent to residents in other cities; and above all, such au atmosphere of morality and purity as pervades this city by the sea.: Why has it not long ago entered into tbe heart 6f some: truly Christian man to establish just such'a place as this/for those weary, souls in every, city who pine for quiet and rest from every-day life, and who wish to avoid fashionable watering places that so ^eldqm benefit the toil worn, and where a mother and lier little ones woujd be safe should her husband or other, male member of her household bo unable to remain with them. The -sweet security of Ocean Groye is one of its greatest cbarma. Myself aud daughters have’ been here much, of the time without father, or brother, and yet not once have we been subjeet to the least, molestation there-, from, though we have gone constantly to the meetings, and on the beach.fre- quently in the evenings . We wish here to-mention a little inci- dent.that'occurred. a few- nights after our arrival, in order to do juHliee to the prompt police ptfinials; One .of the Indies of oilr company lost a large shawl while promehnding near TtciBS’ pavilion, and which ehe did not niiss.niitil pome distance away on tbe bench. Dismayed at her IbfiB, for the shawl was a gift, she, with her father, iinrnediatelyreinrned through the criiwd, with hut little hope of success, 'to senrch for the riiiftsing Article. Moat fortunately, they soon met a member of the police force, who, 1in th eir. d escri hing the 1 ost at ti cl e, to 1 d them that'he had dieicovered -it: on a chair, and fiupponing that it had been I eft accid entnll y, hnd tivhen poasepai on in order to find, if possible, the owner. We wish that we knew the name pf this good man that we might let- bim knpw how kindly he is remembered.’ Ocean Grove bears the palrii for her gentle- manly, upright,.kind-hearted police. The street Arabs that are so constant a so11rce 0f discorn fort to th e nervous feohje invalid, even till late in the night, in cities, by the ioud. discordant crying of their wares, are whoiiy unknown here. The absence of this truly cruel annoyance waa onepf the first bleBBtngft that we discovered on our arrival, also the quiet, polite manner by which all business is transacted. Nervous pros- tration waa our malady for which Ocean Grove was prescribed. What a glorious specific it haa proved to .us physically; mentally and xpiritu- ally. The cobwebs have been bruHhed from our soul’s vision, and the Sun ol Righteousness..has againilluminated*-its. inmost sanctuary, and we have realized that the precious balm of Gilead has been applied by the great Physician ol SOUla. /f'. : The- happy scenes witnessed within th a t'-gra rid Audi torium, th a t • h as abou I it eiich an odor of sanctity that, on ent- ering one aimost feels .that it is heaven's gate, we. phalli^ carry in ;riur meriiory until our feet, touch the - bright shore, above. In the great day :of days how many -that there '‘cornmingled praises and songs, prayers nnd tears;.will never meet again until then ; and Will noiihe remembrance of this happy season at Ocean Grove enhance the rapture ol ihatreunion ? We feel sure that it will. We never see or think of Dr. Stoke- without a heartfelt1!

All of Dr. Ht*»kes’coadjutors have my highest apprecialion and sincere .pray- ers for blessings of jieavcn to rest upon them, as they.surely hsve in times past; and for none do we more cordially pray this than for the editor of the 0'r:F.iM Ghove Record, whose untiring energy and whole-souled perlevcrauce has been a tower of strength towards establish ing, through .the , columns'of his excellent journal, and by his Christian> 'example, the standard of pure’moralitjr that so much distinguishes this; from all other sea-side resorts. . * • ’ • ‘ We heartily recommend all who have ever lieen to. Ocean Grove;to suibscrilie for thi* Rixord at once, so that-through- out the entire year they may have a part, as, it were, of the sweet influences of Ociean Grove, in their far-off horn es, iis a worthy brother bad already re- marked.. 0 that throughout tho earth-life of this.city may its present character and influences remain unchanged, thiit it .may evrintunlly he; recognized as the «*ity of God. where his -glorini|H prrVaerice_ is always.manifest,' and. its inliflbitarits governed only:by his precepts !; '; • Z Up the/Hudsoh.;-;; ' ' ,I’V' REV.

But whnt if it does rain if we have Bon-hine in the soul ? New York was reached in dim Hme, and a lien line was made for »he Mary Poibpll at her dock, pier 39.

How a ride on the poetic HudBOri quiets the spirit! Here a town, there a spire, yonder a mansion and a. graceful la wit; then, a shaded knoll^or mimic moun tain,fringed by a flowery vale where nestles a cot tage—the ho rri e ofsweet content. What should.'we do without .this river ? What, beriedictioris tliqusanilfl, nay> millions would mi-a.if it were blotted out. Thank God for the rivers, b u t es pec ially for tli r- poetic Hudson ! . Twilight cahie slowly on, and we glided ihrough’ the High. lands, as:through enchanted balls, lit by; the:dying .splendors of departing day What grand old hills these ared VIIere; they stand, .silent, sentinels of. ages for- ever gone .'Good night, bid hills, good, night !• and a q uiel m ii rmur ere pci nto my spirit's ear, saying, “ Good night, •good night to you !” and dark ness win- chioku round us.

The word of God like the eye of God is very penetrating and all searching/it discovers to man his sins, and also

i reveals his Saviour. I t shows human weakness, hut at the same time points, to the means of strength. Our ignor­ance and infirmity is laid'bare under ita light, and in this condition, it leads the ainceresoul to vast resources pf wisdom .and power. In our dependence and poverty, to whom shall we go-? Here is manifested riches of mercy and grace in. Christ J.esus.’ Tt is an inspired word;

■and shall we allow any finite thing .to come between us and the possibilities it presents, relating to our sanctifica­tion ? ■ : ■ .

Imbedded in this passage of Scripture may be found a great fund of instruc­tion concerning Christ, Hia reality is .one of.the prominent doctrines of the apostle. To this we cling all the more tenaciously in an age when" men are trying to put him out of the way, or niaVchim a mere myth in their systems or sentiments. ( I t Is a sterling and thrilling fact, that now, as from the beginning, lie 13 nigh thee ;. in thy tfsart and ill thy month, where con­fession I b made unto salvation. The French saint Fenelon was right, when dying he corrected' the quotation

kindly meant to comfort him, by de­claring with Paul: “ I knqW him whom —(not ia whom; I have believed,” etc. So let us brush away every proposition that comes between the soul and . its Saviour. • . • ’ .' ./;/.■ ■'

Til® paraliolia style of explaining away the real .Christ was here referred to, and the speaker proceeded to argue that ove see Jesus, in, every element of our nature. ;• Tiiis does not lower him. He assumed it to raise us into a purer nnd perfect manhoid. Je.us tiecnme the Bon of man and this h umacity, in its relatipn to our s tlva- tuin is the lower par t of Jacob’s ladder. Cut it olf and we are.bereft of the only means of elevation. Hia was a com­plete human life. He had a mind under all human conditions. He was a worker, and is a brother to every sou and daughter of toil. Is eligible to membership in all Workingmens's as­sociations. Errors at this point in the investigation of his nature, ate com­paratively harmless, provided the spiritual life of the Church is not ex­tin c t.. ' . /'';': ' /. The views of. a Beecher, /Bishop Foster, Thomas or Curry,, can pass simply for what they are worth, with­out affecting seriously that wonderful life, which is the light of men.

It is when we come to the point where the two natures join—tiie divine in the human, timt the subject rises beyond comparison or even compre­hension, IVe admit the. theory of heredity. Beep and far-reaching, however, as the depravity of our race has gone, Jesus can remove it. Through the second Adam wc may become as pure and holy as the first when created ill, the image of God.. He came to re­store the true nature of man, and his record all along the ages is " mighty to save.” . ..:■■■•■' In this reai Jesus to-day we Have an antidote to sin. Xo soul-wound beyond the efficacy of his power to cure. Healed, we become blood of his blood, and his , life dwelleth in us. There is nothing lie has in himself hut I may have through'faith iri him. Tins is the fellowship unfolded in our text. A ttain­ing his righteousness, I am saved; saved from.all sin, nr.d unto everlasting life with the Father, and .with his Son Jesus Christ.

Paul and His Carsor.The discourse of Rev. J. B. Brady in

the Ocean Grove Auditorium on .Sun­day evening, Aug. 29th, was founded on a clause ill 2 Timothy; 5: 8—“ I have finished my course."

The preicher declared that ofall men, next to the divine man and Muster, our LorJ himself, Paul waa the most, nota­ble character in all history. He referred to him in his Christian experience, his wonderful power as a .writer, his work -as a moral reformer, his genius as au ecclesiastical organizer, ■ a. founder of churches, and a tireless worker: ih win- riirig souls, whom lie sought to bring ;o Christ, out of love for' Christ and love for men. ' '• v

He referred to the locality-and cir ciin'stances of his birth ; his early edu­cation, and his graduation atlfie age of 22, tinder the auspices offiamiiHei; then his marriage to one of the, maidens of Judea, and suhsequentiy.; his hatred -of the Xaziirine, andgail who as-uim-d that despised name. He was a magazine of infuriated rage against thc -sect culled Christians. .His journey to Daniasciis and his. object, were then discussed— eight days of travel; thoughts' of the work on which lie was in ten t; some re­membrance of the old prophecies: a sudden conviction; a strangB voice cry-, ing unto him, “ 3aul, Saul, why .perse- cutest; thou :iue 2” and his extraordinary conversion. .

Now for this young man what is the will of the Lord ?' First, sojilude, crinv- muniogs with the.great themes pf relig­ion as revealed to hia fathers.. Then he began to preach, and then persecution singled him out for its concentrated rage, hooked upon witli fear and sus-' picion by the disciples, he had entered the course and kept right ori. Heiinds a companion iri Barnabas, the exhorter

from Cyprus, They became evangelists. He lias a vision, and goes to Tarsus; toils at-the trade nf a tentrmaker, arid weaves in mighty thoughts and purposes which have for centuries shook the world. The revivals at Anlioeh and other points, amidst perils and stoning*, followed1.- He enconntere and settles the difficulties aliniit circumcision'; he travels ip Trass, nnd dallies not amid ejassic'antiquities, but is soon following the heckonirig hand into Macedonia. Grid is with hi til in the Philippian prls-i on, and lie keeps on his course. .Theii he.is found nt Berea, and stnnds alone for God at Athens/ Next in/Corinth, that -Parisian• London of the. East, and in its abyssmn! wiekednesB prnelaims Christ crucified. At Thessalmiica he took time to write two of his Epistles, and goes up to Jerusalem for the fourth time. From council there lie is off to Ephesus, where the jealous Deinc; trus raised ri. r io t; hut the Church is established, and. he is still on the course,. That greateeelesirislicnl gun, theFirsi

Letter to the Coririthiahs, is - now writ ten, ending with the publ'unest passage in any language, on love—the golden chain that hinds believers em/churches together and makes nien God-like.

Again at Trohs, and over into Mace­donia, his lilisy.life.is full of res porisi bilily. He writrs .Epistles, meets Titus, and attends, tbe first Methodist confer ence at Corinth. While here iris letter to Galatia was penned, .and that won­derful Epistle to the Romans written. It stands as a vast cathedral, one cor ­ner signifying universal ruin /another, tho remedy for sin ; a third,- the duo trine of justification by faith; the fourth, those good svorks which -follow, and. in the centre a crowned T’hracian declar­ing, “ I am not ashamed of thegospel!”

.We now find him. using as helpers the godly women he met, and pressing on to Ceserea, lie' is cast into a Roman prison; hut rnyulhj mini* to h«tr him. His appeal to Cicsar necessitated his go­ing lo. Rome, arid the events of iris jour- neyings, shfp-wreck.:perils,' privations and Indomitable- courage, were-dwelt upon with exhaustive power in delinea­tion. -. ■ • ■ .■ -The preacher, in picturing-Paul's last years-and death scene, brought, vividly to remembrance ilie .untiring zeal by which the.great apostle was actuated to the, latest moment of his life, and then, wlien the work of the executioner .was done, liis entrance amid tiie acclaim ol martyrs, prophets, angels, into tiie pres­ence of his Lord, and liis reward, from the. righteous Judge, in a crown of life -white the work he set in motion rolls on through the centuries, brihging.gli.iry to Clirist and souls'to heaven.

' Blessings at Ocoan Grove.:/ilY MRSwA/ L/TIUTER^DUKOUR. X .

Haying been ii sojourner, for. t>ie .past two months in this beautiful city by the sea, I cannot refrain, from expressing the deep feeling of gratitude that fills my h eart; first, to the Giver of all gocnl. for guiding me., to this .sweet.haven of re^i ; and second, for the pleasant con- sideratioh and Christian love extended to me by ell around. - I have wondered ifin i l l the world; tiierc-eAi5to another incuiporated town where such., perfect rest and peach is found from care ’; such, complete freedbm^ from formal cbhveh- tioimlities ; such congenial.aocial inter­course, combined with (iiiily Christian privileged, such exemption from the multiplicity of annoyances consequent to residents in other cities; and above all, such au atmosphere of morality and purity as pervades this city by the sea.:

Why has it not long ago entered into tbe heart 6f some: truly Christian man to establish just such'a place as this/for those weary, souls in every, city who pine for quiet and rest from every-day life, and who wish to avoid fashionable watering places that so ^eldqm benefit the toil worn, and where a mother and lier little ones woujd be safe should her husband or other, male member of her household bo unable to remain with them. The -sweet security of Ocean Groye is one of its greatest cbarma. Myself aud daughters have’ been here

much, of the time without father, or brother, and yet not once have we been subjeet to the least, molestation there-, from, though we have gone constantly to the meetings, and on the beach.fre­quently in the evenings .

We wish here to-mention a little inci- dent.that'occurred. a few- nights after our arrival, in order to do juHliee to the prompt police ptfinials; One .o f the Indies of oilr company lost a large shawl while promehnding near TtciBS’ pavilion, and which ehe did not niiss.niitil pome distance away on tbe bench. Dismayed at her IbfiB, for the shawl was a gift, she, with her father, iinrnediatelyreinrned through the criiwd, with hut little hope of success, 'to senrch for the riiiftsing Article. Moat fortunately, they soon met a member of the police force, who,1 in th eir. d escri hing the 1 os t at ti cl e, to 1 d them that'he had dieicovered -it: on a chair, and fiupponing that it had been I eft accid entnll y, hnd tivh en poasepai on in order to find, if possible, the owner. We wish that we knew the name pf this good man that we might let- bim knpw how kindly he is remembered.’ Ocean Grove bears the palrii for her gentle­manly, upright,.kind-hearted police. ’

The street Arabs that are so constant a so11rce 0f discorn fort to th e nervous feohje invalid, even till late in the night, in cities, by the ioud. discordant crying of their wares, are whoiiy unknown here. The absence of this truly cruel annoyance waa onepf the first bleBBtngft that we discovered on our arrival, also the quiet, polite manner b y which all business is transacted. Nervous pros­tration waa our malady for which Ocean Grove was prescribed.

What a glorious specific it haa proved to .us physically; mentally and xpiritu­ally. The cobwebs have been bruHhed from our soul’s vision, and the Sun ol Righteousness..has againilluminated*-its. inmost sanctuary, and we have realized that the precious balm of Gilead has been applied by the great Physician olSOUla. / f ' .■: The- happy scenes witnessed within th a t'- g ra rid Audi torium, th a t • h as abou I it eiich an odor of sanctity that, on ent­ering one aimost feels .that it is heaven's gate, we. phalli carry in ; riur meriiory until our feet, touch the - bright shore, above. In the great day :of days how many -that there '‘cornmingled praises and songs, prayers nnd tears;.will never meet again until then ; and Will noiihe remembrance of this happy season at Ocean Grove enhance the rapture ol ihatreunion ? We feel sure that it will. We never see or think of Dr. Stoke- without a heartfelt1! God ble.-s you” in sent out mentally ; for I, though nui personally known to him, have so riiucb e i jj oyed - w i t ri ess i n g l i i s p ro m pt ;.kitn 1«■ decisive actions, the genial kiridling «V|; his eye. the . almost - luyiiig, patriarchal vigilance th at be.extend3,'.and which is gratefully felt, we firmly believe, over ihis entire comrhunity. Only in heaven ! can he receive a sufficient reward for the great good that lie has Vapd .will still ach i evefo r we p ray th at hi s ; 1 i fe of use- fu I ri ess i< > his fci 1 ow- men may be in an v

;yeard prolonged. any ,sbuIs wiII. riseup at bust and call him blessed, whose great heart and soul has insti­tuted and kept to;iU.original purpose such a.place as Ocean Grove. ,, . !

All of Dr. Ht*»kes’coadjutors have my highest apprecialion and sincere .pray­ers for blessings of jieavcn to rest upon them, as they.surely hsve in times past; and for none do we more cordially pray this than for the editor of the 0'r:F.iM G h o v e R e c o r d , whose untiring energy and whole-souled perlevcrauce has been a tower of strength towards establish ing, through .the , columns'of his excellent journal, and by his Christian>'example, the standard of pure’moralitjr that so much distinguishes this; from all other sea-side resorts. . * • ’ • ‘

We heartily recommend all who have ever lieen to. Ocean Grove;to suibscrilie for thi* Rixord a t once, so that-through­out the entire year they may have a part, as, it were, of the sweet influences of Ociean Grove, in their far-off horn es, iis a worthy brother bad already re­marked..

0 that throughout tho earth-life of

this.city may its present character and influences remain unchanged, thiit it .may evrintunlly he; recognized as the «*i ty of God. where his -glorini|H prrVaerice_ is always.manifest,' and. its inliflbitarits governed only:by his precepts !; '; • Z

But whnt if it does rain if we have Bon-hine in the soul ? New York was reached in dim Hme, and a lien line was made for »he Mary Poibpll at her dock, pier 39. A beftiitiful.little rest of an Hour and a jialf, when the.last hell tolled, and she haulerr put into the stream, heading Oor th ward. What apoe m this Hudson; »iver is ! Not blank verse, fame and spiritless,’but full of rhyme and rhythm, and musically 'flowiri g nil rri hers, un ti | the soul catches the inspiration, and on the Wings of facts and fancies floats out arid on and up, where, as iri dream or vision .of HI eased ne 4 / it forgets its wparmesH and is at rest. How a ride on the poetic HudBOri quiets the spirit! Here a town, there a spire, yonder a mansion and a. graceful la wit; then, a shaded knoll^or mimic moun tain,fringed by a flowery vale where nestles a cot tage—the ho rri e ofsweet content. What should.'we do without .this river ? What, beriedictioris tliqusanilfl, nay> millions would mi-a.if it were blotted out. Thank God for the rivers, b u t es pec i ally for tli r- poetic Hudson ! . Twilight cahie slowly on, and we glided ihrough’ the High. lands, as:through enchanted balls, lit by; the:dying .splendors of departing day What grand old hills these ared VIIere; they stand, .silent, sentinels of. ages for­ever gone .'Good night, bid hills, good, n ight !• and a q uiel m ii rmur ere pci nto my spirit's ear, saying, “ Good night, •good night to you !” and dark ness win­ch ioku round us.

Particularly was this the case on last Sunday, Its sun rose without a solitary “ watcher on tho beach,” except Father Boston over on the Asbury Park side, and Mrs. Frank Morton at Ross’, both of whom had to accommodate a few special friends with facilities fur a briny hath, and who are notably quite spry in tho cariy dawn.

The You tig Peoples Meeting was an atiectingsum’mary of the season's work, and a final leave-taking after so many sweet and sacred gatherings under the shadow of the -glory crowned nierey- seati .

Rev. Frank Cookman, who has given undivided attention to- these blessed services, was to»leave,;during the week for his studies at Drew, and his appoint­ment fit.Cranford. Others of the band, were also under marching orders, some for the counting house, some for col­lege or seminary, and some for home duties, and hard work; but all . appar­ently with the purpose in their minds to.carry out the sentiment of their cov­enant hymn:

Lord,o!>C<tteiitty wt’Il go, .• .. (iltt.ll)- ItillVing all beK'W :

Only iht-u our Leader be..And we stiti will foUowthee. •

It was a question whether to hold public services at 10.S0 in the Taber­nacle or Auditorium. The latter -for­tunately was selected, and a congrega­tion soon gathered tbaVwould till three buildings of the capacity of thejformer.

The open ing praver was otVereil by. Rev. J. M. Freeman. D. D., of theM. E Sunday.School Union. He was resting for a brief interval at Terrace Cottage, and his appearance occasioned a pleas­urable surprise. .; '-Rev, Dr.* Wythe's sermon was from Gal. 2: 20. The crucifixion oi the car­nal self and that faithful life in Christ which grows illustrious as. it cleaves to him and beeonns legibly stam.ied with the seal of entirety and whole hearted ness. Some verses quoted by the Doctor in, his beautiful peroration were new to nearly .every ear present, and we have had so many urgent re quests to print them; that we cannot do ‘less. than gratify our readers in this respect: ;

The meeting was perhaps the best of the whole season. Bros. Bodda and Gardnor led the singing, Rev. B. Scho­field, Jr., addressed the people on relig­ions sincerity and the joy of a positive experience in Christ’s cleansing power, ltev. J. II.

The Tabernacle was crowded to ils utmost limits before 7.30. The editor of this paper, to whom had been as­signed the privilege and honor of preach­ing, found . a • grand 'substitute in Dr. Freeman, and; the latter discoursed with his usual- eloquence and force on Paul to the Galatians, fi: 15. »•

“ ASensible Prohibitionist,”HY REV ; W . H . HOOLE.

This is the heading to an articlo in tho Asbury Park Journal of last weak, in commendation of */ Hon. Myron H. Clark, of Maine” (of New York), who in reply to an .application for a sub­scription to support the Prohibition candidate for President, Neal Dow, says:

441 admire and approve Mr. Dow’s prin­ciples upon the liquor prohibition ques­tion, and would be glad to nid him in any praclical way.which would promote the good cause; but I shall give my vole for James A. Garfield. (The italics are mine.) Viewing the question in a practical light, we all know that either, the Republican or the Democratic can­didate for that nfiice, will be ejected.; and I should greatly* deplore the elec­tion ofMio Southern rebel brigadiers and tbeir allies, the Northern copper­heads, under the head of the Democratic National Party.” . ..

I have no right to find fault with Mr. Clark for holding these views for him­self, or coating Ids vote for Garfiold. or Robert Ingersoll. Perfect liberty of action in this respect is the”unquestion- ablo prerogative of an American citi­zen. Neither will I seek to impugn Mr. Clark’s motive for his course. In such a matter I have no right to inquire, his vote is his own personal property. Mr. Myron H. Clark was once oi* twice, or .more times, a standard-bearer of prohi­bition, and candidate for the Governor­ship of a Stale. Perhaps, us with mahy other good people, “ hope deferred mak- eth the heart sick,” and the prospect of election oh the Prohibition ticket was too Tar off to make its. “ principles” 44 practical.” He “ admired, and ap­proved” these principles, it was i\ “ good cause,” but because either the Republi­can or the- Democratic candidate for tiie Presidency will be elected” he shall vote for one of the two. Well, some men do got.tired and exhausted in the race of principles when they see that victory is delayed, and so seek the com­pany of the multitude. \

But it is not Mr..Clark 1 wish to air tract attention to so much as to the Journals commendation, “ A Sensible Prohibitionist.'’ If Mr. Clark had said he should vote for Hancock, and not Neal Dow, would the Journal have com­mended him as 4* sensible” ? Yet there nre in the Democratic party, men not a few in favor of prohibition prin­ciples, who will nevertneless vote for Hancock. And if they are us conscientious • as Mr. Clark they too aro “ sensible” in laving up their.moral principleson the shelf, and “just for this once,” voting with the Mg party, You cannot avoid the logic of this.

Now what is the outcome of this rea­soning? Just this, that the Tournn/'s “ sensible” applies to Mr. Clark's “ prac­tical” repudiation of his prohibition prin­ciples, and not to his determination to vote for either Garfield or Hancock. If it is “ sensible” (consistent, right, best) for a Republican to vote for Garfield rather than for Prohibition, it is as “ sensible,” and right, ahd best, for a Democrat to vote for Hancock, though in his heart of hearts lie believes in legislative prohibition. It is therefore “ sensible” and right for every voter to utterly repudiate the cause and princi­ples of legal prohibition of the liquor traffic by the ballot! . Su« h is the only. legitimate conclusion and meaning of the Journal's large type commendation.

My sincere and religious objection to this is, that in the hard fight we are now. enduring to secure the supremacy of moral principles by just legislation against the most enormous evil which ever inundated a country with its over­whelming. floods of destructive forces, P r o h ib it io n is t s should not, by public laudation of any man’s example,.strike their own cause and weaken the chances of Prohibition. This only is “ sensible;” and it lacks the grateful fragrance and delicate perfume of modesty,to stigmat­ize by implication all pr.ohibUiomsts who do not follow. Mr. Clark’s example, a3 lacking in common sensed I for one profess to inherit enough of this valu­able virtue from mv excellent mother, to know how and for whom to past my vote without beingimpugnedasmit pos­sessing average intellect.

When Mr. Dey raised “ AtV banner the 44 hU” applied ^or ought to—to the most notable representatives of these communities. No greater cats* than “ nis” is on .the floor of this nation for settlement.

, . From the Pacific Coast.Hev. 1\ Peterson, formerly of Philn-

dejphia, sends us tho following, dated at Los Gutos, September 11 : .

Dear Bro.:-— As you are interested in all that pertains to tho kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ, I thought you would bo pleased to hear of our first holiness camp-meeting on this part of the Pacific coast. It commenced Aug. 12th, at this place, to continue only a few days, but such were the 'manifestationa of God!a saving power that it was kept up until the 30th. There wore not over three hundred persons presont at any one time, yet many' were born into the kingdom, and over eighty souls pro­fessed to be wholly sanctified.

As tho small company who were pres­ent are members of tho various denomi­nations, wo hope through them that the work will spread. Wc have organized the Central California Holiness Associ­ation for the purpose of an onward movement. Our next meeting will be at Alnm next Sunday; Alameda, Oct. 15th, nr.d atSnn Jose early in Novem­ber. It will be my duty to attend the meetings, and travel generally in the interests of the Association j and yet we have no treasury and no money. We depend on the openings of Providonce ns well ns the lending of the Spirit. A felt need is holiness, literature; but we trust God wili open up the way'whereby that want may be supplied in his own tim e.'

We hope.that when-Bro., Jhskip and his colaborers shall reach San Francisco that we will liave a foundation laid in this land)‘where-they may s t o p for a time and labor, with the p r o B p e c t of God’s blessing attending their ministra­tions. Among the following names of some of the officers of t h e Association you will recognize at least one o f them :

President—Rev. P. Peterson, Los Ga­tos; Secretary—Rev. J. Smith, Los Ga-: tos ; Cor. Secretaries—Miss Morris. (So­ciety of Friends), San Sose, ana Dr. Bishop, {Free Methodist), Alameda; Vice-PresidenU in the various towns.

At the Exhibition.The well-knowu Centennial grounds,

Fairniount Parkj Philadelphia, have been the objective point for a week post for.throngs of people interested in the progress of art, mechanical industry, 'agriculture,. and improved stock. It has gratified a host of the friends of Rev. T. K. . Peterson, and of his well known business houso, Peterson\fc Pfeil, Third and Arch Sts.,, to see in the pa­pers so much commendatory of their display of saddlery and horse-furnish­ing goods nt.the great exhibition, and to know that the firm have been pre­sented with three medals forgenerl ex­cellence in the style and- workmanship of their goods. It would not do for the name of T. K, Peterson to stand con­nected with anything but first-clas3, and the honors gained in this instance are well-earned, and due not only to th*1 heads of the firm, hut the superior workmen they employ. All together may feel proud of their pre-eminence in the midst of such competition as now prevails in this'd^partment of business.

Bathing.It is surprising after all that.haa been

said and written on tbe subject of bath­ing, that siich a question should have heen asked aa that propounded by Mr,I. F. Johnson.

The balhing-mastcrs are employed hy the proprietors to watch bathers The grounds are,leased from tiie Association These conveni­ences . nre intended for those renting bath-houses. It is reasonably expected that those not renting bath-houses should pay a trifle for these conveni­ences, especially as three-fourths of the bathers are nomrenters.

The display of an artistic ftnd stupen­dous Garfield banner, and a public meeting in connection with the event at Educational Hall on Thursday after­noon and evening brought in sundry delegations from the surrounding coun­try, and several speakers of eminence from a distance.

If I were idling, it would draw me to it, across many fields. Turning tho corner, I heard the sound of a saw, and this sound drew me yet more. Fur a car­penter’s shop was the delight of my boyhood; and after I began to rend the history of our Lord with, something of that senseof reality with which we read other histories, and which I am sorry to think so much of the well-meant in­struction ivereceive in youth tends to destroy, my feeling about such a work-' shop grew stronger ant! stronger, till at last. I cntild never go near enough to see tho shavings lying oil the floor of one, without a spiritual sensation such as I have oil entering an cild church. And (he feeling has grown upon me, till now it seems aa theonly cure in tlie world for: social pride would be to go, for five silent mi'nqes, into a carpenter
