g:'A, mg anxiety fi r religious know lecl}(e, and

live at a time when plans for public good are
boldly conceived and fearlessly executed. To
Mess'otiicrs is becoming the ambition of the
Mghcst and tin- recidnpensc of the low.st. "I o |
rd in almost every land. I o c:.i r\, " lar as the
curse is tbuncf,” the tidings of pt ace and the
means of purity, iimtes th.' strength of a thou
sand hands, arid engages the prayers of^tcn
thousand hearts.
Thesi; ellorts arc not without success. The

teousness advances, 'I'lie winks i.f darkness

gospel iironiise the approach ot' Ix tter times.
But the work is only liegiin. Millions of the
iniman family are yi^t coxeri-d wilii darkness,
guilt, and ])ollution. Thousands in our own
country know ui'thing of tlie wa_\ of life.
'l o Christians the cry for hel[) must be rais

vl'.irh Christ will set up his kingdom in tlie
vorld. Ilis staiidard tiiey arc |'.ri\IK ged and
required, to follow, and 'o do so w llhout dis

must act in conccrt. To st cure this ihe_\ must
know their relative stri n'^th and mov^ lucnts.
In a well-orgainzi d army there art watciiiiien
to look 'out for danger, and messengers to re
port the acts of each division, and tlu sviccess
of every attempt; so, in tlie bust of tiie J.ord
there must be heralds to liear tidings of what
is doing,’and sent.m is to guard again.st hostile
invasions. The army of Christ is not ilrawii up
in one field of battle. It is .scattered over vhe
whole earth. Hence the necessity and nseful-
ncss of religious papi rs, by wliieh Christians in
every country may know what isefi’ected, what
remains to be done, and how to co-operate w ith
f.ach other in doing it. There is no other Vay
in which to make know n the wants of^er_\
ction of till' Church, and to insure concentra
ted and vigorous exertions among the friends
of Zion. Accordingly, in all parts of the
f'hufcli, and among all denominations of Chris-
tians, such publications are rapi.iily multi])!\lng
and cheerfully supporti d.
