Ijord's approval of their course. Iu other tngtanoaa

tha Spirit appears to work mainly thrpugh thd

roason and consclonce, loading men to aea that "tho

0iid of man is to g|r>rlfy Qod and enôy, taira for-

oTer/'îd, so tUa, highest sorvlco, wWoh can bo

gdipel^-to ^ ^ I that Ihoy.eannpt, Wlto

science, give their llle to any Inferior calling. In!

fewar oaaes, but certainly In soma, a vlaW of Uho

hopelasa ooudlUon of the Heathan world-baa been

made use of by (be llotx Spirit to convince men

that they ought to make tho Christian mlnlalrv

their life-work, and bear the offdr of salvation to

the benighted. Is it not surprising tbat the voice'

of Jesus, >>aylng, "W^tiom (ifaall we send ? and whji

will go for us T" does not reach tbe hearts o f yrdung'

men in greater numbers eapacially in these tjrs

of rapid communication and religious freedom 7 I t

may also, I think, be gran ed that tbeUoly Spirit

in adapting hisaotiou to the pû i l a r teinperaoiont

and training of oerlalu men, makes use of dreams

or vlsiens, as well as of striking provldenees, to

convince them ot his will. There Is a period in

the history ot almost every people when reeling and

imagination are more active than reason, when

signs or tolioiiB of ihe klud mentioned woukl bo

naturally looked for by many, as the c Minail indi-

cations of the Ijord's will ou any groat question;

and I reoollect one student, at least, whose call to

the ministry came to him, as he believed, by means

of a remarkable vlslou or dream. He has proved

himself to be a good lululster of the Lord Jesos

by several years of useful service, and I am not

prepared to deny that tbe Spirit of tiod wa* in bis

iuind when he saw that vision, though I am na-

abio to give it as high la plaoe In tha matter'of bis

call as he was disposed to give iU

Now whether a man believes tbat the will of tho

Ixtrd, as to his life-work in the ministry, has been

made known to b i n by an early presoutluieut

which became attor conversion an Impression and

conviction of duty thgt b<) oould not but respect as

from God, - or by an ardent love for tbo work of

the ministry as a spiritual service. In cumpatison

with which every other work appears unattrMtlve

or Irkaome,—or by a rational consideration of the

highest object ot Ufa to h ^ a a being, anil a can

scieutious Judgment ^be ministry 'be can

not our liroilior inviU) all profossoil Cbrlsilans of

would embrace all Oroek Catholics, Mormons,

Caiupbelliios, and the lens of thousands of im

COMMUNION.'

to rrturn agaln^'now ooutirmnd in' their heresy, to narlioipateln tho highoat prtvlleg«of yonr ohurohea. Van have dcelareit befom the world that coin-muiilon is an ordinance whoae dealgn la toaet forî Christian flillowship whun Chrtat, ou tho eontrary, afllrma it Is to atioW his death.. You have made an exhibition of Christian love and liboralUv, so oallod, at the table of tho rônl, which if you do in nal i ty feel you certainly did not manifest at the t.ma you excommunicated theui fVom your ohuroh fellowship.

Tho central and ouly argument in tho al>ovo against open communion is that it would bo do-atructive of ohuroh dlsoipiino, since members ox-cludod from our chunihos would bo taken Into reilobaptlst and Campbolilte sociotie^ aud, on an opou iuvitatioii, ooaio right back to the tablo of tho ohurob that oxciudod them. This Is e<jually tfuo of tho inlorconimiinlOn practice. Baptist churches aro indopondont, and a iuoml>er oxciudou from ono ciiurch can Ito roooivod by any utlior that can felluwahip him. It is o( weekly uccurranco ; and to deny thin rigiU to Uaptlnt cbiirclies is to as-sault thoir indepoudonco.

He (eels out among strangers as yet, but tho visits of the Old Batuier aro like thoso of an old friond and father. God bless you abundantly in your new field, Bro. 8. Bro. T. M.: Il Ih Christ who said the field is the world, and wc daro not say it is the church, or tho kingdom. You d» suggest the difnculty of the parable; for it has Its very grave difficulty. Wo will notice it in our Questiona and Answers soon, a'thongh wo do not promlae to solve it. N« ono has that wo know of. Bro. J . O. McKay, Tennessee, a recent nonvert from Pres-byterianism, sends his centribution for our young ministers, saying, "Although uot competent to preach myself yet I am thanitfiil I can help othera to do ao." This io the light view t« take of the matter. Wo will all preach the gospel through those wo assist to prepare (hemselves to preaob, aa we preach In Mexico and China by aupport)ng othara to preach there. Bro. M. L. Carawell, Texaa: We answered you In thia oolumn. flaviug ebt ained a copy of that circular of teatimonlala we will, ere long, publlah another large fdltloa fbr IMe distribution.

Through th* iufluenco of some of the leading brethren of thai church young Bro. Owens of my aelgiibeilKtoA and I went there and commenced meetings tba twenty-sixth of December.

of Pine Bluff made a recent trip to Tyler,Texas,la onler to taku a general sutvey of ihe outlook with the view of accepting a call extended by the ohuroh in that city. The Little Rock Democrat of January the fourth has the following: **Ini)r. Miller's annivcnary sermon at Ihe Second Baptiei churdi yesterday he slated that a year ago he had inn a large church in a city where he had bean pleasantly situated for seven years to take ch«l |* of a young church in this city, becauae it ae*ai*d his duty to help the noble band of brethraa who were making a faithful effort to put our danooil-national interests in this city on a better and screir footing. He bad been warmly weleoned by th* church and by the people generally, and hi* laboe* had boen moro largely bleaaed than he or llM church had expected. A large and lagular oongre-gallon had boen galherod, the Sunday»aehool wa* more than three times aa large as when b* eame, eighty-nine aooessions had been made to tbeehareh' (six more Joined at the close of the sermon, malri^t ninety>flvc), and nearly enough money Itad b*Mi raired lo build a neat and oommodioua boo** A w of debt. The church had enjoyed tbe most beart]r sympathy and support of the Baptiat Btat* 06b« ventloo, the Southern Baptiat Coavaatlefl âd ' tb* denomination generally. Not a single d t ^ f b i a g a element had come Into the church, nor bad aaf root of bitlemes or dlsoord sprung up to mar the paaoe and harmony of the membership; aad tba duties of the new year were entered upon aadMr ' the moflt encouraging ausploee.'*

Again and again |HK)r Ireland has ueen itriclcen with terrible famints. To what has it been duo? Not to a dellcieucy ol grain, potatoes and fruit, but fo their destruction in distilleries and brewcriet). Ireland became poor because site converted the products of her labor and soil into liquor, and so de8lro)ed tier capital.

Her distilleries and browariox made paupers by Iho tliousand , but what did they do with their paupers ? Talie care of them ? Fefd them and clothe them 7 No, I'lc/ calloc! upon the outside world, and especially u|>on America lo lake iho burden from their handi.

VVIiisky has made three millions ot American pauper* wubin the last live years. Who takes care of them ? The meu who made them paupers ? No, thjy turn them over to the State aud to CiirJs-liau cliarity. You wbo aro honest and virtuous have the bill to pay. Aud yet we arc atked to be-lieve that the men who lay the burdens u(>on us are indispensable to Atlanta's pro«(>crily. Wo aro askeil to go to the iwlis on the twentytlf h of November fnd vote to these men the privili-ii(o of going on in their work of mulliplyiug drunkards and orphans and pauperism and starvation and crime. Mothers and daughters of Atiauta, can you look God in the fa'ie aud say that we, to wb m tiie ballot lielongs, ought to do it ?

It would be nothing more than simple justice to make the whislcy trafllc provide for the paui)orism it has produced, but if we should do that, if we should levy a lax upott the businens sulUuient to Hupimrt those whom i;, las rctluLwl la poverty and wretchedness, in loss than two years the liquor traflic would bo numliored among Iho things that were No man could afford lo engage in it. Year by year these traders in iniquity increase our bur <leDs and multiply our woe".

Year by year the vampires get deeper into your blood. Year by year these ulcers eat deeper into onr flesh ; yet wo are asked to iieiieve tlia. we can-not have material prosperity without them, and to go to the polls and vote them permission lo go on with their work. Mothers and maidens of Geor-gia, wo turn to you for counsel. Shall wo yleia to their demands ?

Six hundred thousand men in these United States aro engaged either iu the making or selling of liquors. Patriots, philanthropists, t link of that six hundred thousand men engaged In turning our food Into poison that makes wives widows, ciiil-dren orphans, aud men der i l s ; six hundred thou-sand men engaged in making loafers, tramps, dead-beats, lunatics, idiots, theives and aiiassins I

It is an undisputed and an uudisputable princi-ple of political econotcy that "every person wiio produces nothing beneflciai to society is virtually a pauper." I beg you to mark the words, "Every person, who produces nothing benoilclal to society Is virtually a pauper." What are the doggery keepers of Atlanta producing that is beneflnial to aoclety ? Will not some Solomon of the anti-pro-hlbitlon party, some mai\ who In wladnm towers above h|a MIoira, i ^ l l pot w m e sage like Mr, '•Hark Wei)," arlM aiid t d l oa what the keepers of the di t ty d«W,of I>«( iA4 i«ê ta re ,p rodadog ; that

When I am supported in idy riewf on any ques< tioM by the wisdom of William E. Qladstone, let 110 man call me a fanatic or a madcap. W b*n the Bngli sh brewers came to him u nd said, "If jroa in-teriere with our bos'.neas yon will have a fWghtfui . deflcienev In the govera|nent treasury to provide for." ho looked them ciUinly in t b * face and re* plied : "Gentlemen, yon need not g ive yountelvea any trouble about the revenue.,

"The question of revenue must never stand in tb# way of needed reform. With a sober populaUoOthOt wasting their earnings, I shall know, wher e to ob-tain the revenun." Oh that such worda were'*writ wb j r e stars aro l i t ; " and for.sho^ a man no tbrone is too high a n i no empire too vast. "The quaitiAjl of revenue must never stand in the way of needed reform." Put over against these grand words the pitiful political ph i losophy of the antl>prdhlbi ' tionlsts of Atlanta. "We can't af ford , to reform, because it will diminish our revenue." Fellew-citlzens, will you take wisdom of William B .Glad -stone or the folly ot "Mark Well ?"

The exicutive committee of the prohibit ion party is made up of men whom veracity is un lm-peached, and unimpeachable—men upon whose record no stain can be found, and wbo would choose death rather than dishonor. Theie men have l>eon carefully aud consclenlionsly gathere4 from the vlllatreH and t»wna of our State, where prohibition has been tried, all the information which is needed to lorm a correct opln lon'aa to the oflecl of prohibition upon Atlanta's material pros-perity. After oaluiiy weighing all the facts which they have collected, they are prepared as bonest^ patriotic, God fearing men to say to Ibis com-munity : 'Prohib.ti in will not harm, but greatly improve your material Interests,"

I am not surprised that Iho words of sacred writ havo been perverted to the baso purpose of a whisky ring, for It has always been a favorite trick of the devil to quote Scripture lu defense af hia doings. He did that when ho ctood with onr Christ on the mountain. What bu .wor did ht t , re-oiiive? "Get tbeo behind mo, Satan," and so Will ( say lo his modern Imitators. I t Is trua. tha t Christ made wine and drank It. I t Is .true tha t Paul advised Timothy to "take a little fo r the stomach's sake," but It was the w i n e , aud not a viliianous, poisonous counterfeit.

If the liquor traflic were llmitnJ to the aaie of such a beverage there would be no demand for prohibition; but where yonr doggery men Mil one bottle of the unadulterated Juice of the grape, they flcli a thousand gallons of which uevet saw a tillery and that contained polsona whieh lay the . foundations for incurable diseases.
