Como on, ye under thirteen, I have some things I want to toll you. Indeed, I have so many things to say, I hardly know where to begin. Please do not count it any virtue in me, that I write to you, I mu.il write for relief. You know when you behold some grand sight, yoiir first anxious cry, is “ Oh, I wish mother waa hear to Bee it too I" So in Lbis great city of London, I feel every day,'' Oh, if ray scores and hundreds of under thirteen in America, wer*- only hero, we would have a graud time look- ing arid looking, until our eyes got tired; Well, Just now, all the shop windows in London, of which I suppose it is not toe much .to say, there are hundreds of thousands, are full of Christmas things. Everything beautiful your minds can think of or your hearts can wish. Qvor and over again, as I stand before b win- dow full of splendid cards for the holi- days, I feel like emptying my pockets and sending you all a token of remem- brance from this distant land. But as this cannot be, I send.“ A Merry Christ- mas and Happy New Year to you .all.” In the next place, os the preacher aaya, some of the young ladies here carry canes. Not lame young ladies, but bright, active, robust, rosy cheeked,, blooming girls. Why ? I don’t know. It would not be civil in me to auk them. I suppose the reason is, because they want to. A great many of the young gentlemen carry cant-s, and most of them I am sorry to say, smoke, I Bupposo you know very well, that in England the people speak the English language. It will surprise you, how- ever, when I aav that without the cloaoat attention, I very often fail to nuder- stand them. Many of - them speak so fast, clip; their words off'w both- ends, leave tho H off where 'it dught'to bs on, and pnt it on in the wrong place, that I often get things sadly mixed, and tu'rn- ing to Uro. Thgrnloy, ask, .What did they say.” For instance, the other day wo were down town, and I asked'a fair- ly intelligent ’ .coking mart, “is liiis High Holborn, sir ?” “ No, sir,” said he, its ’i ’obern.” "Its what?” I asked in surprise. He S-ioked st me as much as to say, You greeny, ito ’i ’obem, sir.” ■Thtttik you, wai ojr meek reply. We wore down at Westminster Abbey one day, and -wanted to go home. We went up to a policeman', who by the way, (ire generally very intelligent snd polite, bo much so that we almpat iuvtvriably iri- quire our way of them. "C an you tell us, please, our beet Way to Russel! Square ?" You go up to the lop of the street there, turn' to your left, pass two cloe.es, and when you come to the third opening turn to the right, keep straight on and that will bring you to Russell Square." Oh, thank you, thank you kindly," said:Mr; Thorn ley, and touch- ing our hats politely, bid him 1 good afternoon. As we left, Bro. Thornloy looked at me. and asked very, blandly, Is it clear to your mind, Brother O yes, clear the transparent fluid which is heavily mixed wittf.the softest portions of our blessed mother earth,” was my yerdant reply. Wo went on, howe/er,, asking about six1or eight times more, with somewhat similar, and frequently with replies even more con- fusing. Sometimes people say to me, what quoer names you have for your streets arid avenues in Ocean Grove, but Lon- don imij some which I think a good deal more so. Of course, in a city so large os' London', the streets are very numerous: Just , how many, I do riot know, I have a list hefoie mo of near* ly two thousand, but presume, there are ft; great many moro. My attention was first called to the singularity of some of the names, on asking a- gentleman where I would find a certain place. He said, “ Go down to New Broad street, turn to your right, and you will come into Camomile street, and if it is not there you will find it round in Worm- wood street.” I could scarcely keep from smiling,' but kept my gravity and said, " I see.” We said to a policeman one d ay ,W e want to go to the Parlia- ment buildings, can you direct us, sir ?" "O yes, with pleasure. You go down Broad street, turn to your left, into Milk street, and that will bring you into Bird Cage Walk. Then go over to Chalk Farm Road, which will briug yon into Cow Cress stroet and the Doctor’s Com- mons ; then follow along until you come to Friday street, turn round Pats Hall into ironmongers Lane, turn up Free School street, which will bring you into Great Marylobone street, Greu.: Wild street, and Half Moun street, then, if you are not quite clear, turn into Pud- diDg lane, which will bring you straight up to Liquor Pond, and so on into Thread and Neddie street, after which you will have no difficulty.” VO, some of you say, he’s just made these up for fun, who ever heard of such name* for streets f" I douy tho oharge ! Tho only thing I have done is to put these names in ihe mouth of the policeman, so as to bring them before your minds. But if I don’t take care I shall make this letter too long, and Dr. Wallace will be after me, to cut things shorter, But one thing more before I close! We have been to Buckinham Palace. This is tho city residence of Queen Victoria. “ Did you see the Queen?” a hundred of you ask at once. Have a little pa- tience and I will toll you. You may know perhaps, that the Kings and Queens of England are all supposed to be very rich, and besides all this, they have a very great and strong govern- ment to Bustain and Help them. Queen Victoria, therefore, has a number of residences beside Buckingham Palace One at Balmoral, Scotland ; one at Os- borne, Tale of Wight'; one at Windsor Castle, thirty miles from Ljndon. At present she is at Winds,,r Caatle. If she- had boon at Buckingham Palace, we should not have boon admitted into the grounds at all, as the public is 'not allowed at any of their places when the royal family its ht home. The Queen will leave Wiudsor Castle soon, for the Osborne House, where she will spend Obristtaas. As soon os she goes we ex pect to visitWindsor, to see the royal residence there. But while we did not see the Queen, or any of the family at Buckingham, wo did see the royal horses, carriages and harness bolonging to the Queen. Oh what a sight / I was going to toll you till about them in this letter, hut it is too long now. Will tell you in my next. : London, Dec. Ill, 1883. If thou will trust him, thou shait feci, In after days, how great a care I las kept thee—borne thee over gulte; Whereof thy soul waa unaware. And thou wilt thank Him, looking back, . Hccauso ile made thy way so frco From galling griefs—and, giving thanks, Shalt, looking thus, no sorrow sec 5 A Rominisceneo of lira, M. D. Jmaes. The writer has seldom been more sur- prised and saddenod than when glanc- ing over is recenfc.copy of T he R ecord, he discovered that, Mrs. Mary 0. James, had died, and as herriame is intimately associated .with an event of touching interest, (known it may be to But few of her fiierids .and ,admirers) it has been thought proper to narrate it, and thiia add, if possible, another chapiet to the memory of one so dear-to-the church and our common Saviour. Nearly 25 yesrs ago, late on Saturday night, d. young, woman.was found lying on a cellar.door os^GreeE street, Tren- ton. She waa helpless and stupid from intoxication. A policeman aiseated her and conducted, or.wheeled her toa a cell in the city prison. The. ydung woman, whose iismt! «sw Jane, was an enrolled member of a mission school established in s destitute portion of the city,, Af. secretary of :ba mission, I called on the next morning to siee the fallen, member. As I entered the door of the narrow cell in which Jaue had spent such adoloful night, I found her sitting upright on her miserable apology for a bed, her hair dishevelled, her head resting on her hands and acuteet agony pictured on bor face. Her piteous ex- clamations was, “ 0 Mr. H—, I cannot live in this way 1” Mrs. James and another excellent lady of the namo of Marshall (now deceased, I think,) interceded in. behalf of the forlorn sjirl and succeeded i:a getting het- mto the Magdalen Asylum at 21st and Race streets, Philadelphia. A soiled and mildewed letter written by Jane shortly after her admission lies before me. It is dated at the Magdalen Asylum, Feb. 21st, no year, is stated though it must have beon 1859. In this, letter she Speaks very ienderly of Mrs. Jarnes, and of the tie?.' svorld-into which she. had been ushered. Just one ex- tract from this veteran letter will sutl'ice: “ Dear ladies, I hope you will believe that I do indeed feel very grateful to you for' your kindness to me, aud. I am sure you will be glad tc hear, .that the Lord lias given me strength to conquer ail tuy miserable feelings, I . begin to feel , like myself again." In .»• Setter dated Dei.',’. 7,1859, written to the sec- retary of the missions, she says : “ Mrs. James was here to see me on Friday evening last, I, waa very glad to see her. She takes ti great interest in me. . She has been a very kind triend to me and I hopo that God will reward her richly for the good she does." Thus was the busy toiler ever on the alert for opportunities to. elevate '.nd ennoble our sullering humanity. , 0. H. H. Faith Cures. BY ntOF. X. D. CALDWELL. Though I have not one word to say either for or against any “ Faith Cure Band," or any association making such pretentions, yet- I confess to a little chagrin at times with t'bt: treatment rendered to Such parties. It occurs to iue that it does no?, become us in ur littleness to attempt the custody of the Ark of Covenant.’’ It must riot be overlooked that any seeming, mystery, or impossibility, is no.argument against His method, of .carrying on His Work,. ileh.Qojd, That there is something in prayer, all Christians admit, but per- haps the limit of thut something nono of us-may determine. This -prayer ques- tion is a science us positivoiy. as that of physics. As such it must have its text book, and .outside of the teaching of that text book all is speculation: In suchi a realm opinion is not worth tho breath which breathes it. What would you think of a person proving or disputing the distance to Poluira by speculation in biology? Each system or soienco must be sustained or disproved by its own method of truth or text book. The text book on the question of “faith cures” and "prayer” is the Bible, and the merit of thejo questions rests jpon its teachings, and not upon outside opinions. This text book certainly teaches that great power hive been vested in certain characters.' It teaches that when this character has met certain conditions, that its will, and the will of the Almighty correspond, and to such a one all things are possible.” Suppose you do not believe it? Wnen you stood on the upper step of Algebra looking up into the science ofCiUculus it looked very doubtful. Suppose you had stood thero “doubting,dreaming,!’ the science of Calculus would have remained the aam \ Please notice one other fact, this text book does not indicate, much less teach, that any power for good over vested in His people, or an individual or church has ever been withdrawn. If prayer and;faith'over healed thesick, or raised the dead, there is no indication that such power has been withdrawn. 3o the text book teaches. Whije i am not the advocate of any exlromeat, yet I am opposed to any wholesale slaughter of a system of truth because at times the voice of an enthusiast may teach it. I will not throw water ovor the fire in my grate because an incendary may . flourish a torch lighted at the same flame. Would it not be better for students of this text book to accept even the ex- treme teaching ol tbe Bible, and reach tho real power its words involved. Then, and not until then, can we safely guide the extremist. It'is possible we may be found fighting against God. Athena, Tenn. Christian Philanthropy, BY REV. DB. DEEMS. The Gospel teaoiieanot only to Ipve to God, but also love to man, so that he whose “conversation becometb tbe Gos- pel,” lives in love with his follow-man. The dili'ereiii'6 between tbe inculca- tions of tbe Gospol upon this subject und those of all other reiigioos and all other philosophies is this: that they: endeavor to awake that lore by present- ing man to his fel!ow->nan, either in his own nature, or in his relation to his fellow - iriau ; whereas Curiatianity teaches me to love my lellow-man, neither lor wbat be is in himself, nor what he is to me, but. for what he is to Qod. Outside of Clirisiuriity *rej are taught that we aro to love a man be- cause be is a man, the simple fact of tho segregation of his species from every other species beiug, according to this philosophy, a sufficient ground of aifection. That is generally supposed to be the meaning of Tereuce’e famous line: Homosum:. humani. nihit a me aMenuin puto." Tho utter futility of any such Beutiment to produce any practical benefit to human character and to the human race is shown by tbe fact that the very crowds who applaud- ed this splendid line could gloat upon the gladiatorial show, and turn down the thumb for the destruction of a wretch who bad fallen in the arena. The uther ground of love for our fel- fow-men is in their relations to our- selves, or in tbeir characters. Tons, the ties of consanguinity, the relations instituted by niarriage, the friendships occasioned by affinities, the advances made to us by those wlso know how to ple&t-e us, on tho one hand; and cm the other, sweet, charming, admirable characteristics in our fellow man. The objection to this ground is its exceedingnarrownesa. Any one man’s knowa kinspoople aud relations must be very low compared witb tbe pop- ulation of the whole globe. If ho is to love only those who love him the exer- oise of nib allections are on the small spaces of seltishnosn, and not in the largo fields of philanthropy. The Gospel teachas us that Qod loves every rnau, regardless of our human distinctions of saint and sinner. In His sight all men are sinners, and by His iutinite heart all those sinners are loved. A Christian’s life must be a life animated by..that belief and stirred by that sentmiout. The mau may not be eweot, nor charming, nor admirable; the woman may bo ugly and hateful ; but the Chriatiau is always to remember ttiat however eartniy and geusual aud devilish any man or woman may be- come, that man, that woman, is dear to the heart of Uod. So, if true, precept bo obeyed, a Cnristian man will have his whole life.shaped by the spirit of love for God and love for man. : . ...-r, .. ....... ..... . ... . .... .. .......... ...... . ' ■ ~

Under Thirteen.

BY HEV. E. H . BTOKES, D. D.

Como on, ye under thirteen, I have some things I want to toll you. Indeed, I have so many things to say, I hardly know where to begin. Please do not count it any virtue in me, that I write to you, I mu.il write for relief. You know when you behold some grand sight, yoiir first anxious cry, is “ Oh, I wish mother waa hear to Bee it too I" So in Lbis great city of London, I feel every day ,'' Oh, if ray scores and hundreds of under thirteen in America, wer*- only hero, we would have a graud time look­ing arid looking, until our eyes got tired; Well, Just now, all the shop windows in London, of which I suppose it is not toe much .to say, there are hundreds of thousands, are full of Christmas things. Everything beautiful your minds can think of or your hearts can wish. Qvor and over again, as I stand before b win­dow full of splendid cards for the holi­days, I feel like emptying my pockets and sending you all a token of remem­brance from this distant land. But as this cannot be, I send.“ A Merry Christ­mas and Happy New Year to you .all.” In the next place, os the preacher aaya, some of the young ladies here carry canes. Not lame young ladies, but bright, active, robust, rosy cheeked,, blooming girls. Why ? I don’t know. It would not be civil in me to auk them. I suppose the reason is, because they want to. A great many of the young gentlemen carry cant-s, and most of them I am sorry to say, smoke,

I Bupposo you know very well, that in England the people speak the English language. I t will surprise you, how­ever, when I aav that without the cloaoat attention, I very often fail to nuder-

stand them. Many of- them speak so fast, clip; their words off'w both- ends, leave tho H off where 'it dught'to bs on, and pnt it on in the wrong place, that I often get things sadly mixed, and tu'rn- ing to Uro. Thgrnloy, ask, ’ .What did they say.” For instance, the other day wo were down town, and I asked'a fair­ly intelligent ’.coking mart, “ i s liiis High Holborn, sir ?” “ No, sir,” said he,

its ’i ’obern.” " I ts what?” I asked in surprise. He S-ioked s t me as much as to say, “ You greeny, ito ’i ’obem, sir.” ■Thtttik you, wai o jr meek r e p l y . We wore down at Westminster Abbey one day, and -wanted to go home. We went up to a policeman', who by the way, (ire generally very intelligent snd polite, bo much so that we almpat iuvtvriably iri- quire our way of them. "C an you tell us, please, our beet Way to Russel! Square ?" You go up to the lop of the street there, turn' to your left, pass two cloe.es, and when you come to the third opening turn to the right, keep straight on and that will bring you to Russell Square." “ Oh, thank you, thank you kindly," said:Mr; Thorn ley, and touch­ing our hats politely, bid h i m 1 good afternoon. As we left, Bro. Thornloy looked at me. and asked very, blandly, “ Is it clear to your mind, Brother “ O yes, clear the transparent fluid which is heavily mixed wittf.the softest portions of our blessed mother earth,” was my yerdant reply. Wo went on, howe/er,, asking about six1 or eight times more, with somewhat similar, and frequently with replies even more con­fusing.

Sometimes people say to me, what quoer names you have for your streets arid avenues in Ocean Grove, but Lon­don imij some which I think a good deal more so. Of course, in a city so large os' London', the streets are very numerous: Just , how many, I do riot know, I have a list hefoie mo of near* ly two thousand, but presume, there are ft; great many moro. My attention was first called to the singularity of some of the names, on asking a - gentleman where I would find a certain place. He said, “ Go down to New Broad street, turn to your right, and you will come into Camomile street, and if it is not there you will find it round in Worm­wood street.” I could scarcely keep from smiling,' but kept my gravity and said, " I see.” We said to a policeman one d a y ,W e want to go to the Parlia­ment buildings, can you direct us, sir ?" "O yes, with pleasure. You go down Broad street, turn to your left, into Milk street, and that will bring you into Bird Cage Walk. Then go over to Chalk Farm Road, which will briug yon into Cow Cress stroet and the Doctor’s Com­mons ; then follow along until you come to Friday street, turn round Pats Hall into ironmongers Lane, turn up Free School street, which will bring you into Great Marylobone street, Greu.: Wild street, and Half Moun street, then, if you are not quite clear, turn into Pud- diDg lane, which will bring you straight up to Liquor Pond, and so on into Thread and Neddie street, after which you will have no difficulty.” VO, some of you say, he’s just made these up for fun, who ever heard of such name* for streets f" I douy tho oharge ! Tho only thing I have done is to put these names in ihe mouth of the policeman, so as to bring them before your minds.

But if I don’t take care I shall make this letter too long, and Dr. Wallace will be after me, to cut things shorter, But one thing more before I close! We have been to Buckinham Palace. This is tho city residence of Queen Victoria. “ Did you see the Queen?” a hundred of you ask a t once. Have a little pa­tience and I will toll you. You may know perhaps, that the Kings and Queens of England are all supposed to be very rich, and besides all this, they have a very great and strong govern­ment to Bustain and Help them. Queen Victoria, therefore, has a number of residences beside Buckingham Palace One at Balmoral, Scotland ; one at Os­borne, Tale of Wight'; one at Windsor Castle, thirty miles from Ljndon. At present she is at Winds,,r Caatle. If she- had boon at Buckingham Palace, we should not have boon admitted into the grounds at all, as the public is 'not allowed at any of their places when the royal family its h t home. The Queen will leave Wiudsor Castle soon, for the Osborne House, where she will spend Obristtaas. As soon os she goes we ex pect to visitWindsor, to see the royal

residence there. But while we did not see the Queen, or any of the family at Buckingham, wo did see the royal horses, carriages and harness bolonging to the Queen. Oh what a sight / I was going to toll you till about them in this letter, hut it is too long now. Will tell you in my next.

A R o m in i s c e n e o of lira, M. D. Jmaes.The writer has seldom been more sur­

prised and saddenod than when glanc­ing over is recenfc.copy of T h e R ecord, he discovered that, Mrs. Mary 0 . James, had died, and as herriame is intimately associated .with an event of touching interest, (known it may be to But few of her fiierids .and ,admirers) it has been thought proper to narrate it, and thiia add, if possible, another chapiet to the memory of one so dear-to-the church and our common Saviour.

Nearly 25 yesrs ago, late on Saturday night, d. young, woman.was found lying on a cellar.door os^GreeE street, Tren­ton. She waa helpless and stupid from intoxication. A policeman aiseated her and conducted, or.wheeled her toa a cell in the city prison. The. ydung woman, whose iismt! «sw Jane, was an enrolled member of a mission school established in s destitute portion of the city,, Af. secretary of :ba mission, I called on the next morning to siee the fallen, member. A s I entered the door of the narrow cell in which Jaue had spent such adoloful night, I found her sitting upright on her miserable apology for a bed, her hair dishevelled, her head resting on her hands and acuteet agony pictured on bor face. Her piteous ex­clamations was, “ 0 Mr. H —, I cannot live in this way 1”

Mrs. James and another excellent lady of the namo of Marshall (now deceased, I think,) interceded in. behalf of the forlorn sjirl and succeeded i:a getting het- mto the Magdalen Asylum at 21st and Race streets, Philadelphia. A soiled and mildewed letter written by Jane shortly after her admission lies before me. It is dated at the Magdalen Asylum, Feb. 21st, n o year, is stated though it must have beon 1859. In this, letter she Speaks very ienderly of Mrs. Jarnes, and of the tie?.' svorld-into which she. had been ushered. Just one ex­tract from this veteran letter will sutl'ice: “ Dear ladies, I hope you will believe that I do indeed feel very grateful to you for' your kindness to me, aud. I am sure you will be glad tc hear, .that the Lord lias given me strength to conquer ail tuy miserable feelings, I . begin to feel , like myself again." In .»• Setter dated Dei.',’. 7,1859, written to the sec­retary of the missions, she says : “ Mrs. Jam es was here to see me on Friday evening last, I, waa very glad to see her. She takes ti great interest in me. . She has been a very kind triend to me and I hopo that God will reward her richly for the good she does."

Thus was the busy toiler ever on the alert for opportunities to. elevate '.nd ennoble our sullering humanity.

Faith Cures.BY ntOF. X. D. CALDWELL.

Though I have not one word to say either for or against any “ Faith Cure Band," or any association making such pretentions, yet- I confess to a little chagrin at times with t'bt: treatment rendered to Such parties. I t occurs to iue that it does no?, become us in ur littleness to attempt the custody of the “ Ark of Covenant.’’ I t must riot be overlooked that any seeming, mystery, or impossibility, is no.argument against His method, of .carrying on His Work,. ileh.Qojd, That there is something in prayer, all Christians admit, but per­haps the limit of thut something nono of us-may determine. This -prayer ques­tion is a science us positivoiy. as th a t of physics. As such it must have its text book, and .outside of the teaching of that text book all is speculation: In suchi a realm opinion is not worth tho breath which breathes it. What would you think of a person proving or disputing the distance to Poluira by speculation in biology? Each system or soienco

must be sustained or disproved by its own method of truth or text book. The text book on the question of “faith cures” and "prayer” is the Bible, and the merit of thejo questions rests jpon its teachings, and not upon outside opinions. This text book certainly teaches that great power hive been vested in certain characters.' It teaches that when this character has met certain conditions, that its will, and the will of the Almighty correspond, and to such a one “ all things are possible.” Suppose you do not believe it? Wnen you stood on the upper step of Algebra looking up into the science ofCiUculus it looked very doubtful. Suppose you had stood thero “doubting,dreaming,!’ the science of Calculus would have remained the aam \

Please notice one other fact, this text book does not indicate, much less teach, that any power for good over vested in His people, or an individual or church has ever been withdrawn. If prayer and;faith'over healed thesick, or raised the dead, there is no indication that such power has been withdrawn. 3o the text book teaches. Whije i am not the advocate of any exlromeat, yet I am opposed to any wholesale slaughter of a system of truth because at times the voice of an enthusiast may teach it.I will not throw water ovor the fire in my grate because an incendary may . flourish a torch lighted at the same flame.

Would it not be better for students of this text book to accept even the ex­treme teaching ol tbe Bible, and reach tho real power its words involved. Then, and not until then, can we safely guide the extremist. It'is possible we may be found fighting against God.

Christian Philanthropy,BY REV. DB. DEEMS.

The Gospel teaoiieanot only to Ipve to God, but also love to man, so that he whose “conversation becometb tbe Gos­pel,” lives in love with his follow-man.

The dili'ereiii'6 between tbe inculca­tions of tbe Gospol upon this subject und those of all other reiigioos and all other philosophies is this: that they: endeavor to awake that lore by present­ing man to his fel!ow->nan, either in his own nature, or in his relation to his fellow - iriau; whereas Curiatianity teaches me to love my lellow-man, neither lor wbat be is in himself, nor what he is to me, but. for what he is to Qod. Outside of Clirisiuriity *rej are taught that we aro to love a man be­cause be is a man, the simple fact of tho segregation of his species from every other species beiug, according to this philosophy, a sufficient ground of aifection. That is generally supposed to be the meaning of Tereuce’e famous line: “ Homosum:. humani. nihit a me aMenuin puto." Tho utter futility of any such B eutim ent to produce any practical benefit to human character and to the human race is shown by tbe fact that the very crowds who applaud­ed this splendid line could gloat upon the gladiatorial show, and turn down the thumb for the destruction of a wretch who bad fallen in the arena.

The uther ground of love for our fel- fow-men is in their relations to our­selves, or in tbeir characters. Tons, the ties o f consanguinity, the relations instituted by niarriage, the friendships occasioned by affinities, the advances made to us by those wlso know how to ple&t-e us, on tho one hand; and cm the other, sweet, charming, admirable characteristics in our fellow man.

The objection to this ground is its exceedingnarrownesa. Any one man’s knowa kinspoople aud relations must be very low compared witb tbe pop­ulation of the whole globe. If ho is to love only those who love him the exer- oise of nib allections are on the small spaces of seltishnosn, and not in the largo fields of philanthropy.

The Gospel teachas us that Qod loves every rnau, regardless of our human distinctions of saint and sinner. In His sight all men are sinners, and by His iutinite heart all those sinners are loved. A Christian’s life must be a life animated by ..that belief and stirred by that sentmiout. The mau may not be eweot, nor charming, nor admirable; the woman may bo ugly and hateful; but the Chriatiau is always to remember ttiat however eartniy and geusual aud devilish any man or woman may be­come, that man, that woman, is dear to the heart of Uod. So, if true, precept bo obeyed, a Cnristian man will have his whole life.shaped by the spirit of love for God and love for man.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 5,1884.

The watch-meetings, of which there we^e four held at different points in Park and Grove, were well attended, and all very profitable religioiuB meet-

' ings/ j-- 1The back .numbers of T h e R ecord

containing Dr. Stokes’ correspondence, \yhich so many want, we regret lo say,

. are nearly all gone. We catl furnish no more except to new subscribers. ■ -

Our correspondence this week is so voluminous, and so mixed up withal, that several appropriate New Year com­munications have been overlooked un-

. til too late for the present issue.Rev. J. Hepburn Hargis, the newly

appointed assistant to Dr. Vernon, Su- perintendant of the Italion Mission sailed last Saturday for his new field of labor. His family will remain a while in this country before going abroad.

We are finding out the mistakes made in sending out January bills to some who had previously paid, and as we go over our lists are correcting them. We hope our good friends will not be unduly offended if we havo not seemed to treat them fairly.

Rev. E .I .D . Papper, who is filling the place of Rev. J. 8. Inskip as editor of the Christian Standard, in Philadel­phia, exhibits the traits of a veteran, in itemizing and lively make up. He was formerly a correspondent of The Metho­dist, and gives promise of becoming a first-class editor. As a poet, also, he steadily improves. Three of his “pieces” appear in his last week's issue.. Acting on suggestions we have ven­tured to offer, some of our readers re­consider their intention to discontinue T h e R ecord, and kindly notify us to keep on. ’ Advance subscriptions are most popular with many, wo wish it

, were so with all; but it suits us very well to wait in some cases until friends return to the Grove next Summer, when their little bills can bo paid.

I t wns a very rainy day last Wednes­day, and Capt.Rainear’s brigade had to seek shelter. The Captain had just re­turned from.; his brief, vacation, and■ when he reached biB office was received with “ cheers.” He thought this was .an imperative demand for a speech; ;but it was the prelude to a presentation. The gift was a magnificent album. After this, speeches were in order while the rain poured, and then, every man to his work again.

Anything relating to the late Mrs. Mary D. James and her life long devo­tion to the welfare of others, will be sure of an appreciative perusal in this

. paper,' or, indeed, in any other publish­ed in the. State. A-friend sends us a “Reminiscence,” wbicU will be found on first page, and will revive many ten­der* m'emories. We tnank him for the sketch, and may take this occasion to answer his and other inquiries in re­gard to a biography. Rev, Joseph H» James, of Danielsonville, Conn., will as soon as possible, prepare a suitable memorial volume, and will be glad to receive material from all reliable

\ sources, to aid him in the work. . .Last Sabbath morning Rev. J. S. In-

skip attended the services of St. Paul’s Church;;accompanied by his estimable

•Vwife; They occupied seats within the railing. After the benediction was pro­nounced, Mr. and Mrs. Inskip, at a signal from him, of his wish to do so, commenced the singing of a hymn, the words of which he articulated with con­siderable distinctness, but hie feelings overpowered him and itv was riot finish­ed. He is unable yet to converse with his friends, many of whom gathered around to shake hands with these be­loved evangelists.

Amid the bewildering vastness of the great English metropolis, our readers will perceive that Dr. Stokes is, for once, completely nonplussed; buthe will work his way through, and in tho series of letters- he promises us, will give about the best idea of that .Babel a stranger

. can expect to receive. The two articles from his busy pencil on first page will be accepted as a very suitable New Year offering, instead of the matter we might have published in its place. We have further communications up to Dec. 20. Ho and Bro. Thorn ley are at this wri­ting, Jan. 3, On thei Idle of Wight, and may possibly drop in on Tennyson.

; Happjr .Now Year !■If everybody uttering or hearing,tbis

expression during the past few days, would only take a little time, like our philosophic friend I). H .. Wyckoff, ior “ Reflections,” and lay out the lines. of probability as to how the wish can best be actualized in all soberness, mightnot this thing called'“ happiness,"which jb said to be “ our nature’s end and aim,” b u t which bo few amOr.g the multitude know anything about, become a more settled experience?

What constitutes individual happi­ness? Contentment with providential allotments, industrious pursuits having both personal and public good in view, and obedience to law. . “ Blessed (or happy) are they that do his command­ments.” W hat can m ake this feverish, wretched and selfish' world happy? Temperance, benevolence and freedom from sin. “ Being made free from sin and' become servants to Qod, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the' end everlasting life." Based on these two principles, we seek in the opening op­portunities of another year, to secure the desired boon, and wish all our read­ers the happiness which."N othing earth ly gives, or enn destroy, - • :The bouPb calm sunshine and this .heart felt joy ."

“ Frbnd After Frieni Departs.” ; :A card from our estimable friend,

Samuel Sterling, Esq., of jersey City, bears to us this Bad announcement: “ My dear wife died on Christmas morn­ing, after an illness of only three days. You were a'particular friend and favo­rite of hers. She often talked about you. Our home is very dark.”- Alas! A.darkened. home on earth’s brightest anniversary morning I .And such a happy Christian . home ! How often we have been, welcomed to its genial society,-and large hearted hospi­tality) How we shall miss this gentle) kind mother, the elect lady, Mrs. Ster­lings Like those of her own dear family, there, are many here at Ocean Grove who are bereaved. But heie comes in tbe blessedness of faith—such a.faith as she exemplified;, a faith that works by love, and purifies the heart. The Christ whose advent we were celebrating when her spirit plumed itself for the upward flight, she adored on earth, and saw that day in his everlasting glory among tbe holy angels, .

Esfloctioas,- Ms, E d i t o r I look backward over the ages which are past and through the centuries, I thihk of the .mighty hosts of human beings who have lived as I now live, and who have died as'I must die, and when I contemplate that : the dead are,every where on the face of this vast globe, and tbe solemn fact that I shall soon: be among their number; and when I look out beyond this world to the centre’of. our solar system, and farther out, over the mighty universe of God, I find myself in the midst of a speculating guess-work, in which rea­son has no foundation, logic no figures, and science no basis from which to make its deduction. Then I instinc­tively turn to the only source of human consolation and say "The heavens are the work of thy hands and the firma­ment showeth thy handiwork, O God." While from this same source cometh these words, "The dead Bhall liveagain." “ I am lie who liveth and was dead, and behold I am alive forevermore." This alone reconciles mo to ray jot, and bids me to hold last with a tenacious grip to that faith which, looks 'forward beyond the bounds of time and space, to a per­iod when I s h a l l ; understand more - per­fectly the mysteries, with which I am; at present surrounded.

Triumph at Last.The ultimate triumph of righteous­

ness is assurred. The great God cares for the interests of truth, and in the end will make right victorious. At times, error and falsehood may prevail, and every indication may point to the tri­umph of iniquity and of wrong; but bow suddenly all things change; how speedily the fallen banner of truth is uplifted; and how quickly the proud crest of falsehood and error, is laid in the.dhst, ■ That; which ought to stand shall stand, and. everything that ought to fall shall fall at last.,

God lives, though men may die; God rules, .though Satan may seem to trium ph;; and in hia own good time He gives the victory to the. right. Let no man be moved by these, afflictions. Let no heart fail for fear when dangers thicken and furious, foes assail. God lives; and they who live in him now, shall live with him forevermore; and

God shall bruiso Satan under your feet, short! y."—H .L . Hastings.

Clarence Carman was the only indi­vidual who was adventurous enough to teat the temperature of Wesley . Lake this winter. Oh last Saturday big skates carried him too far, and he tiroko through the ice. James Vannote, an­other boy, heroioally came to the rescue, and the only damage was a thorough ducking, which Clarence does not care to repeat until next Fourth of July.

Capital and Labor. ■-This question has agitated the world

for centuries. Initssocial and political aspects it is, by far, the most important of the present generation. I t touches all national wealth and prosperity; and its equitable adjustment, would secure the permanent welfare,and glory of.the world;.

But how can this correct adjustment be reaohed? W hat plan is it likely will best accomplish tbe object contemplat­ed? To be effectual the plan must be acceptable to both capitalists and oper* ativeB. And it will require much care ful consideration to arrange a system to whioh none will object. How, for a general outline, does this appear:

1st. Capital must have its proper in­come..

2d. Labor must be equitably renum­erated.:.' 7

It is evident there can be no practica­ble sheme, that does not strictly main1 tain these two principles.

Let the corporation or association, of whatever nature, be a mutual benefit society, then will every one conneoted with it, have a personal interest in its uninterrupted success. Let there be at least an annual settlement with every one associated with tho concern. After the stipulated; interest iB paid on the capital, let there be an equitable divi­dend, pro rala, the entire association included—both officers and operatives.

Now in suoh an asssociation as this,' capital would find its advantage, since there could be no ihducnment for strikes; because eaoii person in the es­tablishment, being identified with it, and having an indisputable right to share in its future profits; he or she, would not lightly abandon BUoh inter­ests.: Of; course the operator must be paid wages equal to his worth—skilled labor; more common, leas.- Tho above plan would prevent all hard feelings be­tween tbe employers and the employed; and, in its stead, there would be cher­ished a cordiality, forming the founda­tion of an indissoluble union. How much better would tbis be than the waste and woe, consequent on the Btrikes, so constantly occurring. And then the measure of certainity which every one would feel in his life’s pros­pects and hopes, would immeasurably enhance the enjoyment of his existence.

Women's Christian Tomporr.ncc UnionThe 4 o’clock prayer and experience

meeting of last Sunday, under the au­spices of this society, was one of un­usual interest. This i s , the women's hour for intercession in behalf o f the victims of tho liquor traffio, and for the overthrow of that power.

They have a prayer list containing names sent in by anxious wives, moth­ers, and friends, and all over the land wherever a Temperance Union has been established, these names, are borne on this great tide of prayer to the throne of grace,' and many have been graciously beard, and some even bere in our local Union have been answered recently in the reformation of two young men, and the conversion of one of them, and a husband also has been reclaimed in an­swer to a wife’s , prayers.. I t is the de­sire of the society to secure the co-oper­ation of the ministers of all the Christian denominations in these evangelical meetings.' They will bo avUed to lead it alternately. Rev. J. S. Gaskiil in leading the devotional exercises last Sabbath proposed that all efforts be made with a view to resuls in this com­munity. Several prominent business men of the place were present and took an aotive pari, in the meeting. Warm and earnest prayers were offered, prac­tical BU.geations were made, self-search­ing testimong given, and a good influ­ence'pervaded, the meeting throughout. A gentleman staled upon the testimony of a youDg man, that drinking among the youth was almost universal. Scarce a score could be found iii this commu­nity who did not indulge more or less in intoxicants. In view of these start­ling facts what is the duty of the Chris­tian church ? :..

After an earnest and effective prayer by a lady for the conversion of the young men and boys in the Sabbath • ncbool, another gentleman spoke of the great need and importance of renewed effort in this direction, and called upon the society to pray for it in all of their evangelical meetings.

Mrs. Downs brought forward and urg­ed the needs of the temperancce school. She said: .“ This is an important part of the work, aud we need help and en­couragement. We need Christian peo­ple to sustain us in this department.

One million signatures are to be se­cured by the W, 0. T. U. to the petition for a prohibitory constitutional amend­ment plank in the platforms of the na­tional, political, conventions of 1884. .These petitions are our: promise to future generations. Every, name is a

" She hath dono what sho could.”S. A. Ckameb.

FhiladolpMa Kotos.As the Watoh-meeting congregations

in variouB'Churches, after solemn pray­er and consecration, began to sing the New Year hymn, the great. bell of In­dependence Hall was struok 108 times, and its every'peal was heard by those awake, in almost every part of the city, At the same time, joyful chimos an­swered from many a steeple, and the year 1884, was ushered in with becom­ing jubilation.

A deoided reform has beon brought about by the exerciso of municipal au­thority over roistering crowds who make the last night of the old year hideous, and hold carnival in the streets of the city during New Year’s day, dressed in fantastic garb, and often very rude in their cohduot. All “Clubs” ambitious to make fools of themselves, had to obtain parading permits, and only obtained them on giving assur­ance of decent behavior.'1

The Ministerial Union, embracing the Presbyterian, B.tptist, Methodist and some other denominations of pas­tors, held its Quarterly Meeting on Monday, without the preoence, liowr ever, of very many of the M etbodiBt fraternity. They assembled at the Book Booms as usual, but only for informal ohat, and efforts to secure help during the protracted services, which begin in most Churches with the Watch-night services, or week of prayer. From thiB time until March, there will be a good deal of aggressive work, and happily many sinners con verted.'

Rev. A. Manship, who has paaaed through repeated seasons of.sore be­reavement during the past year, iB seek­ing to build up the waste places of Zion, by active instrumentalities at the old Sanotuary M. E. Church. Next Sab­bath will be a “re-opening" occasion and Dr. Hanlon will preach morning and night, with Rev. James Morrow in the afternoon. The services will be continued tbe ensuing week and follow­ing Sabbath, and a revival is expected.

Among the live churches, may be mentioned Broad Street. The Rev. Wm. Downey, pastor, has become involved in a controversy.with Roman Catholic­ism, and in a series of Sunday evening discourses to crowded audiences, has been refuting the pretentions and errors of Popery. At its Sunday school anni­versary during the holidays, tho audi- onc.e was dolighted with the entertain­ment given. Teachers received numer­ous presents from their respective classes, and the impromptu addresses elicited from Mr. S. Cummings, G. Jones, John Millikeb, Mr. Fletcher and others, heightened the pleasures of the pccasion. Every scholar received a bounteous supply of candy arid fruit. Last month's collections in the sohool amounted to $68 .. .

Dooido To-Day.The great God requires of us instant

obedience to his commands. Delay is disobedience, arid disobedience, ia sin. "God now commandetb all men every­where to repent,”—to change their course of thought, and their course of life; to cease to do evil, and learn to do well. From you who have hesitated, and lingered, and doubted, and delayed he requires an inatant deciaion. "To­day if you will hear his voice, harden riot your hearts." If you desire to be numbered among his people, if you would share the riches Qf hia grace, if you would not be rejected and castoff forever from his presence, submit to day to his requirements, and yield instant obedience to bis will. Why should you put off this obedience ? Time iB short, life is fleeting,- judgment hastes, and eternity will soon be here. " Behold, now is the accepted time; now is the day of salvation."

It afforded a good inany people In Washington City great pleasure recently to Bee Cape. Rainear and wife there on a viBit. The Captain, like Dr. Stokes, could hardly walk in a public thorough­fare in any city within two or three hun­dred miles of Ocean Grove without be­ing recognized by those who spend part of the Summer season here. His activ­ity : and Urbanity, in looking after the comfort of the people, is rewarded by their smiles of welcome whon he hap­pens to be from home. -Wo doubt whether some of the “ M.C.s” were treated with as much consideration as Captain and Mrs. Rainear were while in Washington. ’

We should not have overlooked the fact during the holidays, that the Ladies’ Store was thoroughly equipped with a handsome stock of fahoy goods.. I t is still open, and always attractive in the line of artioles wbioh ladies know how to appreciate, when denied the usual privileges of oity shopping. In faot they oan do as well, or better here in many respects, than by going or send ing to tbe city. .

A Pretty Example.

The Good Way tells of. two ministers who, meeting in a country store a young man recently married, asked him to treat to cigars, He did so, and the ministers sat down for a quiet smoke. Just then a half-drunken man entered, watched them for a few min­utes arid exclaimed: “Here’s ti pretty example—two .dominies puffing their oigars in a public store I” .

“ I know it is a bad habit, and I ’ve often wished that I could give it rip,” apoligized one minister.

“ You have my sympathy; I've some bad habits myself,” replied tho drunk­ard. ■ ’■.■■■

The best thing that can be done with a bad habit, is to quit it. I t may be hard, but it is not harder than cutting .off a hand, or plucking out an eye. When an evil habit is once conquered, the victim can rejoice in bis new-found liberty,: and escape the taunts and Bneera of those, who, however unmind­ful of their'own duties and obigations, are quick to see tbe slighest departure from tbe true and right way in the case •. of those who profess to be the servants of God. -

Editorial Mention.In his devotion to the artistic con­

struction of a time piece, and how to bring it to unvarying regularity, Mr. Honry B. James has given the best years of a business life, and posterity will most likely reap tbe advantages of his skill in invention. He visited England and be­came a recognized authority among the Royal Astronomers at Greenwich. Great corporations of watchmakers in tbis country have profited by hiB suggestions, and he is jtiat as enthusiastic to-day as ever in the one idea, to mako a watch go right. Of course he understands all the practioal work of the profession as well, and while a resident at the Grove, is de­voting himself to the business how be­ginning to come into his skillful hands! He is at Hodson Cottage.

Now that the schools have resumed their Work, it is proper to let an old) re­spected oitizen of. Ocean Grove speak. He appeals to the teachers to exercise Btrict . oversight in regard to the man­ner’s and habits of children outside as well as in school. He says all little boys should be prevented from smoking or using tobacco, and whenever one is known to swear, he' should be dealt with according to Solomon. We second tho motion, and go in for classis and systematic flogging if the boys cannot be made behavo better by any other process. 1

Mr. J. H , Evans’ new Ladies’ Store at 1,719 'Columbia avenue, Philadelphia, had a good share of the up town Christ­mas trade. Mr. Evans and his obliging sales-ladies are building up a fine busi­ness in thelooality referred to. Whether it is a branch' merely of the Ocean Grove establishment, or the latter a branch of it, both have ample room to expand, and in their intimate relations, will prove a mutual help and incentive, one to the other. '

The stormy days of last week some­what retarded the external completion pf the mammoth building bn which the name of “ 8teinbach,” heavily carved in brown-stone, is now solidly fitted. I t is understood that Henry is alone respon­sible for the above sign. He is to be the sole head and front of the new business emporium, that will, as much as any other substantial modern improvement, be characteristic of the growth of As­bury Park as’a business centre; .

Our old friend Dr. Ball opens up the question of “ Capital and Labor” in a brief article, and lays down some very plausible and comprehensive rules, which might easily BBttle th e whole coritroyersy, . if all /employees were • equally industrious, willing : and traot- able; but some are and ever will, be turbulent, testy, improvident, and next to useless. - ;/ : 'vv

On the subjeot of " Faith Cures’’ we are glad to receive a line from Prof. Caldwell, who talks right out xn a manly way what he thinks and believes just as he used to do here in Dr. Hanlon’s Bible Class, when saored science needed an expositor. H e lays down asensl-' bio basis for bolief, holding fast to the

Kora Dangerous than Cyclones,People talk with bated breath of tho

dangers of a tornado, and speak of the terrible accidents occurring in various sections, by which hundreds of lives have been lost, aud yot the same men tand listless, inactive, at the cry of

sixty thousand men who are annually sacrificed by strong drink. It is all well enough to dig cellars in which to bide from the fury of tho storm, but who

. will deride the fathers and toothers who desire protection from the great scourge of intemperance, sweeping broadoast through the earth, its hands red with murder, and its voice made up of curses? The man or woman who asks :irotection from such a monster iniquity should not be regarded as either a crank or fanatio. There ia no mistaking the fact that intemperance is tbe crime of the age.—Inter-Ocean.
