Such men seldom, if ever, go to
church. Thy feel less at hothe there!
than In the average barroom ; orbilliard
saloon, or at the card table. Not that
all of them necessarily frequent these
places; for "a. good time" is `synony
mous with pleasure, and the place
where; or the form in whi la, that is
sought, of course depends o thaindi
viduhl taste of 'the seeker. Xn on 4
thing they are very generally agreed :
they all have more or less to say (alas!
with too much reason, we must admit)
of the hypocrisy and cant, of m a n. y
church-goers;—but, this, if indeed they
need any further blinding, is simply to
much duet thrown into their own Oyu§
by the enemy of souls. Of all non
church-goers, this is perhaps the moat
hopeless class. `l , 7 et all things are pos
sible to the exce ding grace of God. ,
Let us return a to the honest doubter l l
—men, of who it'may with profound''
significance be said, that they "have•
attained to the dignity. of a doubt!"--
The writer haereferenee to those (and
he has known not a few euoh) who, en
gaged in single-handed and unequal
conflict with Life's cares and trials, are
sadly longing to be Christians, to enjoy
the light and consolation of the Chris
tian Faith, but find it difficult to do so
for want of sympathy 'and aid. ' Is it
not true that, not seldom, the more ear
nest and sincere and conscientious the
mart, the less hope is there of his find-'
ing the needed sympathy and aid ? The*
mind has its:douhiaodoubts that con
filet with, or at least 4uestion, the pre
scribed belief; the heart is filled with
misgivings—misgivings . that s, h °lc Is
those • whose experience hue' peril - 41
been less terrible in. its trialai the soul
as yet needs a hand to .guide,it where
.others are walking with the certainty
of perfect vislow:—and - so, for li I's
doubts, he receives Ithe • anathema'-of
1
those who thank God that are ' of
as other Men' are . ; for his ; ,misgiVin ii,
the reproach of.those more fortunate in
their lot in life; - for• his • painfully f it.
and honestly acknowledged lack f
faith, exclusion from even the coriam -
nion of Prayer,.unless he consents to e
prayed at rather than prayed for 1--
And is it any wonder that many such
stand aloof from all churches, until
they shall find ono- that, in 'the lan=
'guageof i her divine Head, invites them
to her, Jai:manse " the whole need not a
physician, but they _that are sick !" - v
! God forbid that we should , ir under
siaod•as making light of "th form of
Bound words," or " of the faith once for
all delivered to the saints." But there
can bp no questioniltbak what a certain
classi of sincere, honest, thoughtful
I
minds in our owe time pecially need,
is a inoracomprehensiv fellowship, a
more truly Catholic Co mullion, than
they have found in lose bodies to
Which their past, expe ience has been
confined. They have br ken with their
past Church-relations; ml yet it may
be that'their questionings do not touch
the essentials of the Christian Faith,
as embodied in the ancient creeds, but
Merely certain phases of modern doo
t r I n•e .or •interpretation, condemned
'alike by reason and by the consentient
voice of the ChurCh of the Ages.. At
any rate,'lt is not our function to judge
-Men• for their honesit, doubts ;—to their

'abe has to say to them •, and to show
