The Dying Thief.
Do not misuse tho example of the dying
thief. Now is the accepted time; do not put it
off till to-morrow. Tutting it off till to-morrow
is resolving to Berve tho Devil to-day. If there
s one hero who says, "I will repent to-morrow,"
10 means to say, "I will serve the Devil to
Iny." It is awful for a person to resolve to be
religious In a certain time to come; for that is
deliberately saying ho will serve sin till then.
Now Is the accepted time. Here Is a man
in a dungeon. " Escape ( there Is the
door ajar: it only wants a little touch, and
you can escape.'" "No; I'll wait till to-
inorroWk When no looks, some one has
Iconic and put a stone against tho door. "Escape
now." "No; I will wait till to-morrow."
There Is a second block, and to-morrow there
is a Ultra uiock, ana so on untu tne aoor is
fastened up and ho cannot get out. Hero is a
nnan in chains. "Break those chains." "No; I
will wait till to-morrow." He is diseased, and
Id weaker and weaker every day, and each
(day an enemy comes and rivets those chains
faster, and yet ho says: "It will be easier to
morrow. But wucn to-morrow comes lie is
weaker, and those chains are on tighter thuu
tarer. Netcman Hall.
Tlie People of Sorrow.
All Jews have not the same cast of features.
We can distinguish two types, tho extreme of
the one being of exceeding, almost Ideal, beauty
pensive, sad, spiritual, and noble; that of the
kither being almost equally repugnant, nnd cul
minating in what we might almost term a Judas
expression. Between these two extremes, of
leoursc, every variety and modification of beauty
md ugliness are to be found. In general, the
hair is elthcr'blaek or red, the nose peculiarly
formed, tho Hps slightly swelling, the chin pro
minent, the color pale, the stature small an air
jbf dreamy sadness pervading the face, as if the
ploughshare of sorrows had graven on the
nation its furrows long and, deep.
As their past history, so their present continu
ance is a mystery, which we firmly bclicvo can
bnly be solved by a reference to their future des
tiny. Israel has been and will continue a peca-
yiar people. Even in their dispersion the pro-
lphctlc utterance concerning them still holds
true: "Lo, the people shall dwell alone, and
Khali not be reckoned among the nations."

in Massachusetts averaged $1000 a year.
In lbC2 the Methodist Episcopal Church had

Boston University (Methodist) has applied
for a charter. Its friends aro exceedingly hope

Our readers will remember that a .Methodist
church In San Jose, California, was lately burned
down, because the Chinese were instructed in
its Sunday School. Since then the superinten
dent has been obliged to Keep a watch against
incendiaries over his house and barn. A recent
attempt to set It on fire was thus foiled. Tho
bitterness against the Chinese is full great.
the Kev. Cbaries l'almer, pastor of the
Stone River charge, New York Conference, in a
note in connection with a revival notice, writes
thus: "Mrs. Maggie Van Cott is a local preacher
of the Methodist Episcopal Church. She was
recommended by a class of over two hundred
members, and the Quarterly Conference voted
her a license unanimously. The Kev. A. II. Fer
guson, our presiding elder, gave her a preacher's
license. She commands universal respect."
As nearly all the modifications of American
Methodism, "such as foreign missions, church
papers, and college education, have originated in
Massachusetts, we are interested to see tho pro
gressive action of the late New England Confe
rence. It advised the formation of young peo
ple's societies in the churches, looking towards a
union of such societies all over the land; it up
proved the new Boston University movement,
and the raising of $120,000 for tho Boston Theo
logical Seminar', and plenged itself to aid
Clullin University, to be founded in Camden,

ment was that to reserve a portion of the mis
sionary contributions for the home work. It
would doubtless have carried, but Bishop Thomp
son stoutly refused to put tho vote, and Insisted
on the regular methods. It was evident that
unless more Is done by tho parent board to meet

incumbent may approve.
Tho afternoon service at Christ Church, New
York. was. on Sunday last, the scene of a novel
feature. The organ sudueuly stopped lu tho
middle of a hymn, and not another note was
heard from It during the service. It seems the
organist had taken offense at something done by
one of tho officiating clergymen, and in disgust
left the church. The effect of Buch a prococding
upon the crowded congregation, especially in a
service which requires the organ constantly, may,
perhaps, be better imagined than described.

On Sunday last the services in the Second
Moravian Church in this city were of a very in
teretting character. At the morning service, in
the presence of a large auditory, fourteen per
sons were admitted into the congregation by the
rite of baptism, confirmation, and by certificate;
making a total increase of forty-three commu
nicants since the first of the year. Ju the even
ing the lecture-room was again well
filled. when Rev. Mr. Hoffman
preached a highly edifying discourse
upon. Come unto Me. all ye that labor nnd
are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." The
Church Extension Society of tins congregation
has two missions under its charge, viz.: n( Har
rowgate." where they have a neat little chapel.
Brother Nice officiating, and the Bethlehem
Mission." on Dauphin street, in the northern
part of the city, which was organized within a
few w eeks. '1 lie Mintiay school is cry -eu in
tended at present, numbering more than four
hundred scholars (the infant ehes alone numbers
one hundred) under the care of efficient teachers.
'Hie audience chamber of the church is
fast approaching completion, the congregation
expecting to worship in it about, the middle of
next mouth. At the east end of the room is the
chnneel and pulpit, and at the west, end will be
nlaeed the organ, and gallery for the choir.
i'he walls are plastered In imitation of granite.

The Congrcgationallsts of Central New York
will soon issue a local religious paper, the
Excelsior.
Within the last two months three Congre
gational churches have been founded in the
South two in New Orleans.
The bequest of irlO.tOO by the late Hervey
Sanfoi'd, of New Haven, to the American Con
gregational Union, will not be paid till next year.
Thol'nlon is now aiding in the erection of "fifty
churches.
We hear that a mi-sionarv in Brownsville.
Texas, has succeeded in iiiiitiugi nil the Pro
testants 'Episcopalians. Methodists. Baptists.

tional I hurch.
The new edifice of the Victoria Park Con
gregational Church, London formerly Kev. 11.
1). Northrop's), was dedicated on March 23. A
large number of ministers and friends were pre
sent. The new building seats comfortably 2kio
jersons, with standing-room for 500 more. The
church was organized six years ago, and has had
a growth unparalleled in the history of Ouigrega
tioiialhni in London.
REFORMED.
There Is a single (ierman Reformed church
In Philadelphia iiito which more adult converts
from Roniauisni have been received during the
last few years (numbering between 00 and 70)
than all the, Roman Catholic churches In that
city taken together have captivated during the
same period. And In that same church several
converts from Romanism are now passing through
a needful preparatory course of Instruction In
Gospel doctrines, with a view to their admission
before long,' This good work Is going on "with
out observation" or noise, but it Is being very
effectually Aouo.-Jndependent.
