"The Lord did send it, my children," she said, "If the devil bro't it, 'twas holy bread, For the prayers of the righteous are heard And often, my children, the human means Employed by the Lord are strange, it seums, To fiulfii his sacred word."

Preaching though requiring a some- j what different style, is perverted to the! opposite extreme. An aged Lutheran i minister fieeiuf . lit! y went to hear Mr. j Uramwell preach, when the latter was stationed at Hull, England. A friend ' one day said to hirn : "Mr. Tribner, j how do you like Mr. Bram w ell's preach- j ir.g?" and possibly anticipating an ob-j iffttion. added, "does ho not wander from hi3 subject "Yes," replied the j veneraoie oiu man, ne uoes wanaer most delightfully from the subject to the hetrt."' PRETTY SERMONS. Robert Hall said : "I like to see a j pretty child, a pretty flower, but in a ser- j mon preianess 13 oui 01 piace. j.o my ear it would be anything but commend able, should it be said to me, 'You have given us a pretty sermon.'

THE UNSEEN HEARERS. and fizurcs, burvin-r his argument Chrysostom, speaking on the compo sition of a sermon, says, as in a reverie: "I had a vision: I thought .1 saw the communion-rails crowded with angels listening to the sermon. AVhen a man speaks a3 in the sight of God, with an open heaven with Christ and angels before him he catches the true pro phetic fire; he offers a present salvation, from a present Saviour ; the Spirit of glory and grace descends, and the flame accompanies thcra to their houses APPLICATION NEEDED. Bishop Andrew in a communication to the Nashville Advocate, has some very pertinent remarks on home preach in. We give a paragraph : "The truth bv which men are saved are few, and it is on the proper, affec tionate, earnest, patient, and reiterated application of these that the preacher must depend for the success of his work. W vrant. in short, the constant and earnest application of home truths. This is the sort of preaching for the times ; and the only sort that will be effectual in saving this untoward gener ation. Men must not only have the truth explained clearly and forcibly, kf it- ,nur rilsn br annlied. "We want a good deal of 'Thou art the man' sort of preaching. Men will hear you very patiently while you paint sin and sinners m general terms, out nei j-ju home to them when you take the can dle of truth and begin. to search in every nook and corner of the sinner's life when you drag out into open day light all his abominations, and show him his vileness, and tear away all his refuges of lies, and leave him no alter native but repentance or damnation, do not marvel if he resents it ; you may look for it, for you have taken away his gods, and what has he left on which to lean? He may be angry he may hate you, and curse you: do not regard it rather take courage; it shows that truth is at work, lollow up your attacks, and never rest till the citadel ;a rrvrrifid. and vou can rejoice over ano- - ' " F ther trophy to the power 01 saving grace " POINTED ILLUSTRATIONS. In one of the battles of Philip, King of Macedon, an arrow stuck in his eye and put it out. He picked it up and found it inscribed with these words: 'To ' rhilip's eye.' An archer whose aim was bo sure that he could mark his arrows btWV, thr destination with a certainty that they would reach it, had aimed it i at'the eye cf the King, and his arrow had reached its point. Such should be the certain aim of the miuisters of Christ. There are arrows in the quiver of the Almighty for every class of our race. The minister of the gospel should select and send them to their destination with the precision of the archer to the King's eve. When the bold blasphemer enters nf God. a pointed arrow should reach him, dipt 111 the spirit of 1-1.- e V, -Mmirrhtv. So when beneath a profusion of flowers of 1 rhetoric, I would say to him, 4Tut,njan, you care more for your vanity than for my hanging. Put yourself in my place, speak in view-of the gallows, and you will tell your story plainly and earnest ly.' I have no objections to a lady's winding a sword with ribbons, and studding it with roses, when she pre sents it to her hero-lover ; but in the day 01 battle he will tear away the ornaments, aud use the naked edg cigiiuibb uiu enemy.
