All the people knew what he meant, and they flocked to him. And when the coming sermon of the Chris tian church appears, it will not be Princetonian, not Rochesterian, not Andoverian, not Middletonian, but Olivetic—plain, practical, unique, earn: est, comprehensive of all the woes, wants, sins, sorrows, and necessities of an suditory.
