at WysOic Feb;2lst, 1878.'_
Grange was called to order in the lirlok
Church at 2 o'clock by Worthy MasterE.
DELoso in the chair, and opened' in
the usual mandor. -
The ;Church ryas well packed below and
a few in the gallery; notwithstanding the
inclemcncy'of the weather. ; -
- -Th 4 traddresi of welcome was 'delivered .
- by:Worthy Master of the State __Grange,
Bro. , V. E? PioLi r ET, who made ail feel at
hOinend amongiour warmest friends.
The 'lnitiates of the; previous meeting .
Werele — ad corrected and declared:apprOv-,
ed. • The Committee on credeUtiala re
ported tweiiy 7 six Granges, represented
twenty-one masters present, and seventy.
delegates answered to their names. .

_}74, 4 i.LEit. \
The ExeCtitive .committee reported
oifers,-,froin 'different dealer's \ lin ground
plaster at much less rates than we had
ever bought before.
• Alsorates on Syracuse salt by the car
. ,
lead and lasi, that would astonish' those
buying at retail.
Under this bead the State Master stated
that ho had a contract with a firm owning
the best and nearly all the" plasterbeds in
the State of New York whereby . the
whole State of Pennsylvania could be
furnished by ' the carload at a still lower
rate, making about seventy-five
. cerits'a
ton less than the best offers the Eiecutive
committee had obtained. Thus you see
the result of co-oper.itiou on a large scale.
The executive committee also reported
many bids on clover and timothy seed at
quiet' reasonable rates, much better than
we have over had before. But the ertperi
ence of Wapasening, North Orwell;. and
Rome Grangessin sending to ypffalo is
enough to satisfy those that are inside of
the'Grange that we are as well Posted in
tl e wholesale prices of the general mer
anditcof the country as the dealers are.
Tice special committee were called on
.
fur their report op the state of the order.
The deneral • tendency was good, • while
settle Granges had gono back for the want
of that perseverance required to drive any
branch of business; others were- initiat-
ing to an extent that they would Soon have
to'quit—build a new hail, or stack them
out. Fite report was nuaniumusthat the
order is On a 'totter basis 'nowthan at any
tune since its organization. • While many
haie dropped out, not having interest
enough to hold their membership good,.
_they could not be of auy benefit to the
order while du it.
2 The Worthy Master announced - that it
would be necessary to elect officers to till
vacancies in order to install 'a full quo
rum, for a Grange without officers could
not run siaeessfully, which resulted in

motion was made and' parried, that
when the Grange close for the night it-re
open at 9 o'clock on the falowing morn-
Grange now closed for supper to open
again at T. o'clock P. M. Very many of the
visiting Bros. au& Sisters were invited
home to supper with those living nea:est
by, and the balance were very generously
entertained in the basement 'of. the
.Grange hall Rear by.. Having all the con
veniences of a modern hotel and an abund
ance of the good things, as such farmers
as they at•a do have, they were not to be
outdone and sure enough they were not.
Grange calla to order at and
opened in due - fotin. It was thought by
many that owing to the darkness of the
night together with the threatening storm
that the attendance would be rather light
dining the evening, but quite to the con
trary, the Church was filled alittle closer - -
closer_if poSsible than it was in the after•
noon, for many that Came a great distance
got delayed on accountof the „rain in the
morninfr o and made their appearance in
The evening. Business was again taken
up-with renewed vigor. The committee
on Resolutions-was called fpr,and made
OW following report :
.WHEREAS, The neglect of farmers here- I
toforc to Organize with a view to a com
mon unerstanding and 'united action Ms
had the practical effect toldeny them as a
class all participation in the law, making
bodies of the states and of the .general

Ilkofred, That we Will not in the fu

tirgo . ineh an alliance of the farmers, me
cliatiles, and laboring men as will assure
proportionate representation in all our
law making bodies, to the end that each

in favorer the repeal of the present une

tute for existing and burdensome (because
unequal) a general law taxing all proper- •

Resolved, That we respectrally "mit our
Representatives to send farmers of every
town copoies of the general tax laws now
before the Legislature that they may be
better . r j
epared to judge of the usticeef
any proposed legislation ; therefore be it
Resolved, That , our members of the
Legislature be requested to use theirbeit
efforts as soon as possible, to secuin a law,
Making a reasonable reduction in the fees
and salaries paidesuch officers.
Resolved, That our thanks be due to the
people of Wysox, and especially to the

here strangers, but all were received bY
them as friends, welcomed as guests. and
entertained as brethren, Their unwearied.
effort to make our meeting a success, our
stay agreeable and pleasant has forever
embalmed them and their beautiful homes
I.in our remembrance.
Tho above resolutions wore taken up
and debated upon, and received a warm '
and hearty approval, and were unani
mously accepted. -The meetitig`adjourn
ed at 10:30 to meet in the morning at it.
o'clock.
At the appointed time, notwithstanding
the rain- and high winds 7. that prevented
our faithful members crossing the river
from Asylum, we had a good turnout ; you
could then teU who were the true . and
tried.
Resolied, That we are opposed to the
pass'age of any law taking from the school
directors of our bounty tho right to fix
the salary of our county sphool Superin
tendent.
R.6otre:l, That ' in the opinion Of the
farmers and wool - growers Or Bradford
county the tariff laws of .The United .
States ought to prohibit the' importation
of European shoddy to take the place of
our American wool.
Rert'olred, That the executive committee .
of the Pennsylvania State Grange are re
spectfully requested to institute some
method by which the united action of our
order can be secured in the future by cor
responden ceor other wise. .
ReAotred, That we demand a passage of
alaw that will punish the counterfeiter of
American butter in the same manner and
as - effectually as do s the laws punish the
counterfeiter of our coin :or the banker's
money.
WHEREAS, The universal shrinkage in
value of property of. every description,
and the lessened profits; in every branch
' of business, arul the inevitable reduction
in wages of labor, imperatively demands
a corresponding reduction in the salaries
and- fees paid to all officers—;stational;
State and County.
Again the work was taken up and was
driven with activity. Very Muchlraorewax
accomplished than at any previous mett
ing. The fifth - degree was conferred the
evening before on eleven .candidatea, and
was said to. be the best degree . t.neeting,
ever. held since our organization.

A SPLENDID FAMILY PICTURE.—One of
the moist beautiful engravings 'we have
aver seen is the
,Lord's Prayer picture, by
Drimtri F. Bnoww, of New York, who
expended six years of close lkhor in its
design and execution. It has- tiow been
engraved on steel by the Bank Note En
gravers in the country at an expense of
over $15,900. -- It is pimionired by the
most prominent mer6ifi New York and
Boston to be ono of the finest engravings
of this century. The words of the pri.yer
are ingeniously wrought - into ornamental
designs, delicate, suggestive, character
istic of the thought' expiessed,—and• fin
ished with exquisite gram. The face or
Our Lord occupies a central portion, while
the twelve Apoitles forna the border. The
work contains 115 bends, large end small,
all of Whlcti, including the letterhig and
border are executed in-pure line engrav
ing. The size is 23x29 .inches, and we
can commend it as one of the most beau
tiful pictures for the ltornes of our people,
—taken as it is from the Bible, and illus
trated by the most noted minters the
world has ever produced.- The Saviour
and his Apostlei are taken from DE VlN

are from RAPHAEL'S most noted designs.

sit T.-4 propose to give a series of rief
expositions upon the Divinity of ChricA
And here it is essential to de fi ne the mea -
ing of the term "divinity." ~ In theologi ! \
cal language it means the mime as "deity."
When we say that Christ is divine, we
mean that be Is himself God. Only among .
a certain class of.:theologians does the
term import mere superhuman excellency
—the highest creaturehood. Thiis is a mere
poetic use, and' unworthy of .those who
deal not inn-poetic figures, but in .the 'etas.
net verities of God's word. .
The proposition that I shall endeavor
to establish, with the help of the Word
add Spirit of 'Christ Is, that. Jesus Christ
is Light of Lights and very God of very
God-rhii• same in substance, equal - in
power and glory with the Father.
And, - not to,weary you and in order to
leave a distinct impression .upon your
minds, I - will present a single argument
each evening.,Thus advancing step .by
step, slowly but rarely, I. think .-that .we
shall find our faith in thisLgreat charac
teristic doctrine of the Christian Church
strengthened and confirmed.•-, • ,
I. The first argument -is, that Christ is
called God in the Scripture.
Turn to Ps. 45 :6-7. Hebs. 1 : 8-9. In
the 43 Ps ;13th v., the `subject of it is. ad
dressed as God. " Thy throne, 0 God,
* forever and ever:;" while in the 7th he
is said to be inferior to. God, "Therefore
God, thy God.'r Sceptical writers propose:
to translate v. 6, " God *thy throne for
ever and.ever ;" an inadmissible transla
tion as the best acholars agree. And .v 7
will bear the translation, as the marginal
correction shows. "Therefore God, 0
God." ' But we are not concerned here
with questions of iranslation.'l he Epis
tle to the Hebrews ' gives "the 'Spirit's en
dorsement of our present translation • (1 :
8-9). This settles the question for those
who believe in the inspiration of Scripture.
So here Christ is called 'God. For in
Helm 1:8, we rind that the Sun (shown to
Lie Christ by - vs 2-3) is the subject of the
-45 Ps. " 8.:,t Unto the Son ho said], Thy
throne, Cr God, is. forever and ever."
But, now explain the seeming contradic
tio':. involved in - addressing Christ as both
God and inferior to God? By thedoctrine
of two natures—one divine, the other lit
man—in his one divine person. He is God
as to his divine patiire, in which centres
his one personality. Ile is man as to his
human mature, which subsists in the di-,
vine person ; and hence, inferior to the
Father. As• Eternal God he is equal with
the Father ; as . Mediator—God and Man
—hp came to do.Fathor's will ; he lived
and died a•S;a, servant. (See for the same
antithesis, Ps 110: 1 ; Matt 22: 4241.)
Isaiah 9:1;6., Matt 4:12-16. Isa .9, isl
closely connected with the preceding_chap:-
ter. T 1 ere Israel is represented as in. a
hopeless perplexity and absolute despair,
(8:21-22) Chap. 9 begins, according to Dr.
Alexander's translation; (The dor:mess
shall bedispelled ): "for there shall not
be:darkness forever to her who is no* dis
tressed. As the former time depaded
the land of Zebulon and the land of Naph
tali, so the latter glorifies the way of the
sea, (if e., of Galilee), the bank of the
Jordan, Galileo of the Gentiles." ' That
is,, asrlilee was the most darkened and
I degrrh ed part f the Holy Land, so it
should be mos glori fi ed and blest with
1 the lighte
to co .
ila
. .
In verse 2th prophet assumes a stand
point in future, and sees the darkness dis=
pelted by the reat light. Verse' 3 des
cribes the eon:A:vent joy of the nation of
Israel. Verse-4 assigns as the reason for
this great joy,. that this light implies and
secures deliverance from all enemies.—
Verse 5 describes the destruction of all
the machinery of war, and hence the end
of war itself. (1)r. Alexander translates
" For all the armor of the- armed man in
the tumult (of battle), and the garment
rolled in blood, shall be for burning and'
for food of lire.") And verso 6 cads the
-suction by bringing into view' the Ipyou
who was to effect this great deliver nee.
He is a child born for us, a Sun giv, a unto
/
lus ; hence a true man. But not a mere
man ; for his name shall be cal .d Wim
'derful, Counsellor, the Mighty/God, the
• everlasting Father, the. Prin .e. of 'Peace.
Now who is he P We fin - the answer.
in Matt 4:12-16. Jesus ap )eared in Gali
lee ; his ministry really be•goa there.- Ile
made his home-in Capelnaumv, _right be
side the way of the. gait .of Tiberias and
the bank of the Jordan. The greater part
1 of his labor was expended in the land of
.1 Zebulon an Napit,:ali.• And this was
done, St. IMatihtv says, - that it might be
fulfilled which /Was spoken by Isaiah the
prophet in Alta very passage 'before us.
So then, if Gn,i's word be true, Jesus is
the -child bdrn for us, the Son given unto
us. ; Ile bAbe.,uliglity God,- the everlast
ing Father, and the Prince of Peace:
Isaiah 40:3. Matt 3:3. Isaiah hears the,
voice/of a herald in the wilderness, " Pre
pay ye the way of the Lord, make
straight in the desert a highway for our
, 1,4ia1. ' NoW who was the herald, and
- ' whom . did ho proclaim. St. Matthew
shows that the herald was John the Bap
tist, and quotes Isaiah as referring to hitn.
So, if John was the herald, it 'follows that
Jesus was the Lord and God, whose ad-,
vent he proclaimed. •
Isaiah r4:5. Four names or titles are
applied tt the subject of this verso. Npw
it can be hown that three of these are
personal tiqes of ifie Son of God (or Word
of God) who became flesh and appeared
among man as JeSus Christ. (.John 1:14.)
He is the Maker of all men and of all
things. John 1:3. lie is the Lord of
• Hosts. Isaiah-6th chapter, - compared with
John 1:18. Rev. 19:16. Ho, is the Re
deemer of all
.his people. Acts 4:12. ,
Hence it follows that the fourth name
must be-referred to him also . : " The,Gisl
of the whole earth," or the SupreMe God.
Zachariah 14:5. 'The reference in this
chapter is to the second part, ,of • the sec
ond coming of the Lord. 'Verse, 1. (For
the first part, 1 These. '4:16-11.,' For the
second part, see Matt. 25i31-46 (compar
ing especially verse 31 withtrerses 40 and
45,) and Jude 14:15: His feet shall stand
upon the Mount of Olives, verse 4. Now
that his Christ who is :thus to come ia
plain Clem Acts 1:10-11. Hence the last
clause of verso I') must refer to him.
"And the Lord my God shall come, and
all the*Saints with thee ;" or as it is agre .al,
it should be " With him."
Matt. 1:2223. This passage refers us
back to Isaiah '7:14. He predicts the mi
raculous conception and birth of a child,
who should be called Immanuel. Now,
StMatthecirsays, this prophecy was fulfill
ed id Jesus. - Hence he is Immamiel, i. e.
God with us. ~
,
• John 1:1. Here we are told that at the
beginning of-the creation the,Word was,
(implyingan enduring and unlimited state
of being in contrast with "were made"
of verse 3, and " was made" of verse 14),
that the Word was with God (implying
conjunction, communion,'
familiarity, so
ciety), and that the Word was God. Now
who-is meant by the word (in Greek Lo
gos)? Verse 14 gives an unequivocal-an-
Myer. The herd is Jesus 1/!c Christ. So
he- is. God, although at thesame timewith
God ; pointing to a distinction between ,
him and the Father. Ttiey are separate
persons, though the same in , •Vssence and'
equal in.power and glory.
Jam 10:33. When Jew said, "I arid
my,Father are one (verse 30), the JeWs
understood him to make himself God, and
were abotit to stone him for blasphemy.
Now had. Jesus not Meant this, he surely
would-hare been swift to correct the .mis
understanding, But on the other hand,
the went on to justify this claim in the
face of death. Verse 36.
John 20:28. Theseaire,the words of be
lieving Thomas after be had seen itnd ex
amined the ripen SaViour.l , They. are the
pan, age of a sceptical nature,
slow to be
lieve and therefore not too cre dulous. He
recognized the risen Jesus, and before the
-miracle of thb resurrection cried : "My
Lord and my God."' Rornans 1:4. . This-ex
pression of faith in his divinity Christ
commended. Verse.p.
Rdmans 9:5. There is no mistaking
'St. Paul, meaning here. As to his human
nature, Christ. was of the father of fathers
—a teal man and Jew ;but concerning his
nature not human, he is the SitpromeGod:
Titus 1:3. .According to the command-
ment of God our Savionr,Lmeans in con
formity to the Greek idiom, "God who is
our Saviour,"-or, literally, "according to
the commandment of our Saviour God."
Titus 2:13. This means, "Looking for
that blessed hope.,and the , manifestation
in glory of the great God who is our Se,
viour, Jeans Christ." -There =not be
.
Iwo persorUi spoken of here, beanie ,the
appearance of God the Father is - never
spoken of uy New Testament writers. It
ts always the appearing of the-Lord Jesus
Meat.. So while true man -he must also
be taw God, even the great God.
I will not dwell uptm the familiar pas
sage, I.Tira 8:16, because some doubt is
thrown over the meaning by the correc
tion made by all the latercritical editions
of the New. 'Testament: They all agree
in reading, not "God was manifest in
the flesh," "Int who was manifested in
the flesh." Still I "maintain .that the
meaning is the same; for the only intelli
gible antecedent of "who," is "the living
God" of verse 15. It was he who was
manifested in the flesh. •
Now, Brethren, I think that I have
ved the point with which I set out—
th t Christ is called God in Scripture.
Tin = tinth is the" rock against which Chris
tian nbelief does - especially vent itself.
Destroy \ it, and you , destroy Christianity.
All our kr and interests are bound up
in the Di Christ. If Christ be not
God as Iv 4 lan, there is no salvation
