The following is -.copied from the Presbyterian Standard. Hillsboro. Rev. T. M. McConnell, D.

It was not a union meeting and it was. All the other denominations attended in large numbers. At times the church was crowed to overflowing, some could not get in, some who Tid could not get seats, and stood through the service. Those things indicate that the ser vice Dr. McConnell conducted, and rendered, were such as to invito and hold the interest of the people. His preaching: was of superlative degree in soundness! simplicity and impresshre ness. It was the "old Gospel of the old Book" boiled down. It would not be far from the state of the case to aay that every sermon embraced the sub stance of the plan of redemption. We were helped by his labors among re, we were pleased with his methods, being, as they were, eonspitious for the absence of any modern evangelisticl ties, and there were added to the church "such as should be saved." Dr. McConnell is ammont valuable addition to the eevangelistic forces of the church. It is hoped that he may have enlarging opportunity, ami we wish him ever inrreaoing Divine bles Ing.
