criticism afc tOimethod could stand
up againsthvbat we heard a gentle
man sayhere yesterday ? In reply
to the question, did vou hear Sam
Jones while he was in Durham? he
answered: "No; I heard him in
Baltimore, last winter, and I tell you,
he almost killed me. I found my
self for days and nights either crying
and shedding; tears or shouting
glory, glor' hdllelujah. I am satis
tied that God has raised him up for
this very work, and that he is in
constant communion with God, who
supplies him with the strange power
to convert ?ouls.'
"One of jthejcurioiis'things of his
toryit is1, moire curious than any
thing; attributed to Sam Jones is
of.ihe hardest critics of
ist would be rcadv at any
time to appropriate his work in the
shape of his converts, ami while pro
testing against "his way of slinging
the gospel jbroad axe would pick up
his chips and put them in their own
basket. In a-life of no little obser
vation we have) never known an evan
gelist whose irietKods were so ques
tionable that aiy minister, or church
session, or; vestry or deacon's meet
ing, or anyothjer receiving authority
would reject h is converts on applica
tion for membership. To make these
reflections as brief as ossible Scrip
ture methods themselves have often
been the most absurd to the eve of
the critic, as! when the walls of
Jericho fell down alter being com
passed about jseyen days, with the
blowing of irainJiorns. Rut the sue

the faith attending it.
