put to silence the gloomy forebodings of j
old Manny Adkins, who was always croak- j
in" out, " Something will Laiipcn, and
there is a dark day coming."
"Something will happen: said he ;
" 50uiuthiDg has happened, aud it ought to
make us rejoice all day, and sing in the
night. A ransom has been found for such
worthless sinners as you and I are. Jesus,
the despised Galilean, the Son of God, the
Lord of life and glory, has Lowed his head
upon the cross, and died a death ot cruelty
aud shame, that all, and you and John
Brook among them, who trust in him, and
by his grace arc enabled to live a life of 1 in every good word and work ; aud rcuiern

the Lord ; let us make a joyful noise to '
the Rock of our salvation.' Thiuk what
a glorious harvest we have had. How
good has been to us ; truly, ' He crowneth
the year with his goodness, and his paths
drop fatness.' "
When John Brook went to call on Aa
ron Fuller, whose bodily infirmities had
greatly increased upon him, ho spoke to
him after the following fashion. " I am
come to get food from you.for you know it
is not with us as with the outward creation;
the earth puts forth its blossoms and its
fruit in the spring and summer,but a Chris
tian man should show hie Christian graces
in winter. It is an easy thing to be quiet
when we have nothing to try us, and
to be thankful when we have all that
we can wish for; but you must set us
an example bow to behave ourselves in the
time of trial. God m his wisdom has ta
ken away your health and jour strength.
This is your time, then, to do us good.
