"We may, if we choose, make the worst of one another. , Every one has his weak points, every one his faults; we may fix oar attention constantly upon these. But we may also make the best of one another. . We may i forgive as we hope to be forgiven. We may put ourselves in the place of others, and consider what we should wish to be done to as, or thought of ds, in that place." Lilian's conduct l toward ' her : stepmother - is actuated by exactly the contrary feeling. Every weak point is magnitled, until in the young girl's jaundiced eye it becomes an ' unpardonable offense, t Poor Mra Alden's life Is rendered miserable by the; unauguisea contempt and dislike with which her; stepdaughter regards her.

There were six or seven- professions. Seven had been received for, baptism up to the close of the meeting; others were expected. There were intimations that they might protract again after the busy season , The meeting at .New Friendship, em braced the week following the fifth Sun day in September. The people here were much disappointed because of BroJ Carrie k's sickness, which prevented him from aiding in the meeting. However, the meeting was . a good. one. - On the first .

' A Hopeful View of the Church, ', ' I do not forget the startling progress which atheism has made and is still mak ing in our generation. Not a few of the leading thinkers of the day, comprising some of the most brilliant men in sci ence and literature, are Its bold and un compromising advocates, and display a proselytous zeal worthy of Christian mis sionaries. From this select intellectual circle atheism .. has percolated down through all the strata of society until in, me soape ox. j secularism n, nas become the creed! or no-creed of vast bodies of working people. But still when calmly viewed, 1 cannot think that the present condition of Christendom foreshadows anything like a general and permanent renunciation of .the old religious convic tions. Christianity Is simply having her ever renewed combat with unbelief modified in every eentary by special con ditions 'inevitably modified in ours by the sudden and Immense progress of science, i She has triumphantly survived all previous conflicts of j a. similar sort. and this xacti lends eonnrmation to the belief that she will survive the present Struggle. Indeed there have been several periods In which disbelief was'relatively more prevalent and more confident than it now Is. , So was.it in England when BishoD Butler breasted Its sweenine tide with hi8 Immortal: AnatogyJ So was it in this country when the infidelity of Tom Paine and.

If thine enemy hunger, feed him : if he thirst" give him drink," &c Rom. 12: 20. If the blessed Lord; who was a pattern of all the virtues and graces of human character,' could - not ' "pass through the world without enemies, how can we who claim to be his dis ciples expect to be exempt Enough. that the disciple should be as bis lxrd."

The. sospel forbids t .. But on the contrary, we are to en deavor) to appease their anger, disarm their hostility, and win their esteem and love. True magnanimity, so far from saying an ," eye for an eye and tooth for tooth," dictates a conciliating course. Much better to triumph over an enemy by love than by revenge.:; Much better to assuage than, to add hew exaspera tion to his feelings. ' To return good for evil is the Christian's maxim. If an enemy is in want minister to his neces sitiea, and let the veil of charity shade from remembrance the injuries he has inflicted. If, in, the course of Provi dence, calamities befall him, instead of triumphing in his disasters, be the urst to extend to him sympathy and a help ing: hand. Should such.; a- temper as this prevail how soon would the fires of rancorous hate be extinguished. "Aim to be like Jesus.

Immersion, the Christian Symbol.' t fr'- i,n - in i i it if.- (T! tif . Xsltf '". I ' That the Greek word - fort baptize al-. ways involves a burial, and that immer sion was the act of baptism in the apos-, tone ennrcnes, are muy conceded by the foremost Pedobaptist scholars. And yet many who make this ackno wledment use pouring and sprinkling for baptism.. xneir aexenoe is tnat immersion in. water was merely for the purpose of a' lavation, that this lavation is the essen tial element in baptism, and that; there is, in effect a baptism, even though the, ustration oe performed by the applica tion of water instead of a dipping therein. When reminded of tneir admission that baptism ta etymologically a mersioaJ they answer that so a presbyter. Is ety mologieally an aged man, . but as we speak of a young presbyter, so one can; speak ox baptism by sprinkling. -; Ther say that even were it admitted that originally the presbyters .were, as their name suggests,, always aged men. it might be proper to place a young" man' in the presby terate, and that as a man not aged may be called a presbyter or elder when he does the work of a pres byter or oldjQMucL JO. ft-sprinkling may be considered a baptism when it does the work of a true baptism or Immersion, namely, -a. washing; nts-l i But these are-met by. another argu ment Washing as a cleansing from sin is found in Jewish and even heathen rit uals. " Now the apostolie Immersion was something more than a washing like the Hindoo's immersion in the Ganges; the apostles and the church fathers, make it also a symbol of Christ's death and res urrection. The washing J with 1 water contains no distinctly Christian element lor mat. xound in J ewlsn . and even heathen usage,, f Pouring or, sprinkling is not distinctly a Christian Ceremony : at the best it but expresses a doctrine of natural theology,' that man is sinful and Deeds cleansing. Bntimmersloninvolves peculiarly Christian truth, the reference- to tne burial : and resurrection of bar Lord."- When : baptism is regarded as merely a lustration ; its. profoundest ret erenee is loet,-- It is onlvin the burial in water that we find the peculiarly Chris- tain symbol.
