Prho'dwhat manner of love the Father natk be rtowed upon ns, that we should be called the sons tf Ood. Beloved, now are we the Bona or God. 1 John 111, 1, 2. The wanderer mo more will roam, The lost one to the fold hath come, The prodigal is welcome home, O Lamb of Ood, ia Thee ! Though clad in rags, by sin defiled, The l ather hath embraced His child, And I urn pardoned, reconciled, O Lamb of God, in Thee ! It is the Father's joy to bless, His love provides for me a dress, A robe of spotless righteousness, O Lamb of God, in Thee ! Now shall my famishod soul be fed, A feast of love for me is spread, I feed upon the children's bread, O Lamb of God, in Thee ! Yea, in the fulness of His grace, He puts me in the children's place, "Where I may gaze upon His face, O Lamb of God, in Thee ! I cannot half His love express, Tet, Lord I with joy my lips confess-, This blessed portion I possess, O Lamb of God, in Thee! It is Thy precious name I bear, It is Thy spotless robe I wear, Therefore, the Father s love I share, O Lamb of God, in Thee ! And when I in Thy likoness shine, The glory and the praise bo Thine, That everlasting joy is mine, O Lawb of God, in Thee ! 8UMHAHY OF CllUIiCII NEWS, EPISCOPAL.

The following letter written to the First Baptist Church, Philadelphia, by their pastor, although dated Mount Sinai, February 21, 1871, was mailed from Jerusalem thirty days later: Ever Dear Brethren: Since writing yon from Rome, mlie eyes have gazed on manj a memorable spot. I have crossed the blue Mediterranean, the scene ef Jonah's recreancy and Faal's shipwreck. I nave ojourned In the land of Egypt the land of the mysterious and sacred Nil : the laud of the mighty pyramids and sphinxes aud temples; the land made memorable by the footsteps ef Abraham and Jacob and Joseph, and the millions of the oppressed chil dren ef the covenant, and Moses; the laud made dear to Christ's Church by nits presence of Clement aud Oatbariueand Origea aud Athanaalus and Augustine. I have crossed from Africa to Asta, the continent which gave me birth. 1 too have crossed the lied Sa, not ludced under guidance of pillar and cloud and Ore, but under guardlaBship of Him who is evermore working the unnoted miracles of dally food and snclter, aud friends and redemption. 1 have encamped at Klim, where were "twelve wells of water, and three score aud ten palm trees." 1 have traversed the dreary WUdernes-ifcof bin, where the children of lsrae, almost frenzied with thirst and nuuger, cried to Moses and Aaron, "Would to Ood we had died by the baud of Jehovah lu the land ot Egit, when wo Bat by the flesh pots, where we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us lorth Into this Wilder ness to kill this whole assembly with huuger.'' i have encamped In the alley of Kephldmi, where Israel, under the chieftaincy of Joshua, fought with Amalelt. while Aaron uud 11 ur held up the weary hands ef Moses as stationed on one of the outhaug lDg cllils, he lifted up his great heart In prayer. And now to-night I am encamped before awful Sinai Itself; even now mine eyes gn.e on the Barrel Mount, on which rested the Glory Cloud, from which proceeded the voice of the trumpet waxing exceed lng loud ; tut- mountain winch heaved una quaked 'because Jehovah descended on It In fire." I havo scaled the august height itself, aud stood trembling in the rift traditionally believed to be the "cleft of the reck" where Moses saw the glory of Jehovah weeping by. Oh, brethren, even amidst the bright anticipations or past years, I had hardly dared to nope thai mine eyes weui ever gaze on this majestic scent, bat tareugh the tenderness of our ood and your owu generosity, I am here In the wlldorutss ef the wan dering, with my tent pitched at the very foot of th awiui aeiKUi. ei even amiddt this sceue of terriuo majesty, I hear the still, small voice which speaks even louder than tslnav whirlwind and eartfcr-uai-e; It Is the still, small voice of llimj with wham ou an other height, which I hope tre loii to behold, Israel'.' lawgiver uud Prophet conversed concerning his approaching exodus. Heaven grant that the U v may indeed be my nchool-maater u lead me unto aul keep me with Christ. For "tills Mount Siiutl in Arabia answereth to Jerusalem who u now Is. aud is in bondage with her children; but Jerusalem wblcl is above Is free, whu u is the uither of us all." Ood for Christ's sake grant, dear tirethwn' that all of us may be like !aac, chUdrea of oro mlie! r Amidst ray wanderings, my heart fondly turu to you all.
