xml also acquiring the tiucfeus of our present Collego Library.The precise scheme for the training of godly young men of promise for the I 'hristian ministry, which wa.» then devised and partly executed, ultimately fell through, but the book* remain, and the memory of the kmdiie** and co operation of such men as Dr.J.Bye Smyth and other* then in prominent position» and active service, »till lives.In connection with the educational plans just noted were others of an evangelistic and mit-Rionary character to b - conducted on a catholic basis, and these combined led to my spending the Mimu.er of 1832 in (Jauada in active ministerial work.IVior to leaving Glasgow for this port in THK GOOD IIBIG \u201c FAVORITE,\u201d Captain James Allan, I wan solemnly set apart and ordained to tho mini-try with appropriate services in Dr.Wardslaw\u2019s Church, \\Ve»t George Mreet.The Sunday» of a voyage of five week* were cheered and improved by divine service on the deck, there being upward» of 100 soul# ou board.Captain Allan always co-opending most heaitily.Une of my hearers ou tbn*« Sunday*, then a yonng immigrant, told mu not two month# since that he hail seldom seen iiiu*iuce, but that he remembered well the services on board the \u201c Favi rite.\" After a short stay in this city, the mferinn I had uudei taken called me \\Ve«t-\\va»d, and kept me busily employed during the Mimmer, lecturing, preaching and holding public nuetiogs.Meanwhile the dire disease, th-cholera, swept away nearly one-tenth of the inhabitant» of this city.( >n my return old friend» wtie mimed, while sadntM and sorrow dwelt among survivors.Many years afterwards I wa* informed,'by a Christian minister, that one of these discourses by the way had greatlyawakened him as a youth, and led him to si>ek and find the Saviour.Arrangement* were made for my entrance during the following summer on a stated ministry at York, now Toronto, where, instead of at Montreal, there wan every probability that MY LIFE WORK wonhl be carried on.Had it been ao, how different a narrative of experience and effort would have resulted ' Much h* my own disappointment at the time, the rcheme fell through ; and I liecame convinced that we tnn#t have systematic British help in order to success in th» introduction to Canada of Congregational church» » and institutions.At length in April, 1833, this itinerant ministry came to an end, by iny settlement a* pastor of the Albany street church, Kdin burgh, to which I received within four name# of a unanimous call ; and tho four wero not objectors.Thi# charge wa* accepted on the explicit and recorded undbrstandiug that when our British churches were prepared to take up Canada a* a field for Colonial ini.-sions, should they desire my removal thither, my service* would la- nt their command.Having thui s|Mikeu of a ministry extending from October, 1828, to April, 1833, one naturally enauire* »>f what nut it was an enquiry which rumind* one of numberless imperfections and shortcoming», but which b1m> brings out a prevailing' desire to lie useful in the conversion to Christ of the wandering, and In the stirring up to zeal and consecration those who already believed.The subject of THE FIU-ST SERMON si (JGISTS THE TONE that pervade»! them all.Men mu*t lie in ChrUt if they are to l>e saved\u2014there i* salvation in no other; \" there is none oth-r name under heaven\u201d whereby or by whom tins bi»>n can be obtained.But t»»be in Christ i* more than a profession, mon-than an avowal,more'.than bapti-ui however uiiiiiiniBtered, more than membership of a church ; it is to be a now creature \u2014to bo born again oi the Spirit of Go I to newness of life, and then to have that life working and manifesting itself in holy olxidienoe\u2014the \u201c old thing*\" *f ain and death \u201cpassing away, and all things becoming new.\" Ido not forget that my urgency, olteu impassioned entreaty, in calling upon the People at one»- to turn unto the Lord, forsaking their rebellious attitude,brought u|Min me not infre»piently the rebuke of grave and reverend senior», whose theological conception* were rudely assailed by aucb appals.They were, however, reminded .*t one who besought nun in Christ\u2019s #t«ad, \u201c He ye reconciled to God,\" and of Ge of character and culture, most of whom have passed away.Two dear friends remain, Rev.George Cullen, M.A., and Rev.Dr.William Lindsay Alexander,\u2014both well stricken in years.The attention of the Congregational Churches »f England having been turned towards Canada by the visit to thu United States and these Provinces of Rev* Dre.Rte»l and Matheson in 1834, correspondence was opened with me during IS.j.\u2019», involving a visit to London to moot tin Director* of the Iiondon Missionary Society on the i*'licy required by the exigencies of the Canadian livid.It was at length found incompatible with the great work of that Society among heathen nation* t»i deal effectively with Colonial wants\u2014nnd there came about a conjunction f the two things, namely, a call from thu Congrcgotinnal church in this city to the pastoral office which Mr.Miles had vacated that he might occupy a ( barge in the country, and a notification from London that if I would relinquish my Edinburgh charge and go out to Cunada, acting as its »g*nt, they would form th»» Colonial Mission of the Cotigrepitional Union of England and Wale*.IT WAR A* SACRIFICE, but it wa* miule, and after taking leave of an attached H»ck and assisting in London the work of construction, I sailed for New York, and found myself and family in Montreal early in Augu»t, iKili, I was met on landing at the wharf from the steamer from Laprairie by a number of friends, it is doubtful if acy one of them survives except Mr.Henry Vetmor, with whom from that date I have been on term* of intimate fiicmiphip.Though arriving in Angutl I did pot take » hnrgu here until the first Sunday in Oclul er, f»r I had to visit leading point* in Upper Cunada nnd in the Township* of Lower Canada, a-» agent of the Colonial Mission.The #»fe»ign was to furnish that Society with general aid local infirmation by which they might !>» guided in selecting and sending out suitable iti Distirs of Jesus Christ.Before passing fi» m this second epoch let me *ay that on»\u2019» li.ith wu* s» rely tried again and again, ax the pi * m nt in M» ntreal wa* contrasted with the past in Edinburgh.I could not have ventured »>n the charge without much earnest prayer for Divin* guidance\u2014there was no preaent or prospective pM uniary beuefit in the case, but rather loss\u2014 and yet.for a number of years, I had not ao large a congregation a* I had left, and, what was more discouraging, there waa not granted me the same measure of spiritual success.I left a membership of 240 to find one of leas than 50 ; and thongh my hearer* in the evening were numerous, they did not reach the aggregate in Edinburgh.You may ask, \" Did you com-plain, ABU8E THE COUNTRY and the people, and express your sorrow for having come?\" Nothing of the kind\u2014not an individual knew how I felt, and besides, I wa* cheered by the thought that Divine direction had l>een earnestly a night, and that r»»t only waa I engaged in laying foundation* in thi* city, but also doing the same jin districts east and west.I have long since learned that true *uc-ccbb in ChrUt'* Kingdom, a* in many other relations.i»a matter of slow growth, and that it i* needful that the Lord\u2019s workmen should in patfence itoeses* their houI.Our teudercy U t make haste, but our Sovereign Lord and Master shows that such is not His plan.He is never in a hurry, \" One day i* with Hun as a thousau I years.and a thousand aa on»» day.\" The third period to wnich these memories refer extend* from October 2, l8;\u2019ifi, to May 14, 1871, during whiclt THIRTY FIVE YEARN I WAR THE «OLE FASTOB OF THK CHURCH IN THIS UlTY, ' which for the first ten years met in St.Maurice street Chapel, and the remaining twenty-live years in this building.And of l\u2019ours» within thi* period my principal life-work ha* fe-en carried forward.My lado/ed friend, Kuv.Richard Miles, left a niemlN-rship of forty-eight and an av< race congregation of alxuit one hundred.There wa* a debt u|sm the building not very far from it* value.One half the basomrnt w.c* h a» »'il to a merchant as cellarage ; there were no galleries nor vestry.My entrance upon duty was without observation, for then* were no churches with their pastors within reach toi'on-stituteacouncil orto conduct Recognition Services.The few |H-ople were of one mind, and l hat on»* mind was to serve the Lord and to promote the interest* of the Church.The general attendance upon the ministry grew steailily, a* did the immnenihip of the Church.The congregation* in the evening freiiueutly filled the little building, for at the time evening service* in the chorche* was not the rule, and memher* of the Kpi-copalian and FreahyterUu congregation* frequented my evening ministry.French-Canadian your g men attended that service, professedly to improve their knowledge of the English language.The steady growth of the congregation induced the (\u2019hutch to occupy, for the Biinday-school and week-night service*, the entire baeeimnt, to erect a vestry for a retiring re» in fur the minister and for a Bible üm*, and then to met galleries, thereby INCUEAHING THK AlT'OMMoDAViUN.Billing this latter process w» united in ttervia*# with our fiit'iids of the AmurhiAu Freshyteria* Church, snd their then pastor, Rev.UaUfi Strong.With that church we have always h^d the iu< st fririnlly telaiions, a* aiso with that** long under the car»' f the late Re/ Dr.Taylor; indeed we have had much kindly, frat^r.ial \\ intercourse with mo-t of the IVoteatant ctmrcliei whore anaugi-ment* nermitted such fellowship.We hav»' loved and »l*»irod to |>r onot* a trm Chn-tian catholicity.A* we pro-pure»! we p«{>J < ff our indehtedne**, both the original and tha\u2019, aiiring from improvement* and enlargement!, rei» icing in freedom from that burden, and ci IfbiMliitg th» event in a sermon on the text, \u201c Home trust in chariots and some in horse», but will remember the nanw» of the Lord God.\" The progress alluded to and the need o(?another congregation with it* ininUter to ntsiit in the general work of the denomination, led to the formation ot a second church under the o*n of Rev.J.J.Carrutliors, now, and for the Mq thirty years, of Portland, Maine.They met fur a time in a hall, and then erecte»! a church ImilL ing.This l»»t wo* too ex]>eu»ive a movement1 for their number and means, and ultimately CHUHIIKD THR ONCE HOPEFUL CAUSE.The introduction also of the Free Church of Scotland movement on the visit of the late Dr.Burns, and their choice of an eastern position in the city, naturally though innocently interh r-d with t) tu) proflreaii And huccmhh of tho «t*c >nd church enterprise.It should not be lost sight of, however, that the two pastor* trained for the Chrifetisn ministry a few young men who hav* proved themselves workmen who need not t\" be ashamed, several of whom «prang out of that choreh during it* active existence.Thu disruption in Scotland led several families, whodeeoly eymphathi/ed with it, at attend my ministry for a time, and to seek communion with the Church until they saw what they could do In our city to promote an object dear to them.Their temporary union with u* wa* very pleasant, and they left with our best wishes for their prosperity in the work of the l-orel.THEY HAVE MOSTLY FAHHKD AWAY, but my intercourse with them always was, an! ia with tho itirvivor*, most fraternal.To-waida the close of our occupancy of the building in St.Maurice street, there wo* made a very vigorous and jHTtdsfent effort by moans of tracts and printed sheets circulated in offices, wa*e-hoiiees ami other places, esiiecially among young men, to shako their confidence in the great fict* »>f the Trinity, our I-ord\u2019* divinity, thu personality anil divinity of the Holy Spirit, human depravity, »>ur 1-ord\u2019a atonement, ami other* which the Church generally regards a* of a fundamental nature.Believing it the duty of some one\u2014and why not myself?\u20141»> meut this cut hurst of zeal on the side of error, I announced a eerie* of discourses ou the subjects in view of THE A RIAN AND HOUIMAN I'ONTKOVER-SIIM.The building, seating [about five hundred, was packed for nine Hiiccessive Sabbath evening* with attentive listeners, among whom, be it said to their credit, were many who favored the negative theology.I shall ever bless God for th* result.Many waverere were assured, and there followed the turning to the Lord of not a few who had been halting between two opinion*.I am not favorable to rushing at all tim»'* into controversy, for it often distracts the mini without any c»i responding lienetit.But there are occasions when it is our duty to etand for the defence of the Gospel, and 1 hav* ever thought that this was one of them.During all this jxriod I was Secretary to our Auxiliary Bihl* H» » iety.uml from lK3!t an active promoter aud (flicerof the French-(\u2019auadian Missionary Society.Itwa* my custom to make an annual visit to our newly-planted churches in the Eastern Township*, amt also north-west of thu city.As 1 drove my own sleigh, ami went,\u2019alone, f had SOME ROUGH EXPERIENCE amid our revere winter storms.I Hiring peverAl week* of one rummer I was engaged at the in-rtaiKe of the Mis-ion in visiting Nova Scotia and New Brunswick ;

the first mentioned largely through the energy of the late Hon.John Young, Lectures then fegan to Ik* desired; anil I prepared and delivered fr«-e of any charge quite a uumhur on Comme»oe, and on the element* of Mental and Moral Hcience.These were delivered iu public halls ; and I remember one occasion when the Earl of Elgin and his suite were on the Slatfoiin, and after my lecture- ou \u201c Freedom of lind,\u201d that nobleman, then Governor-General, delivered an eloquent address to the Association.About there day* THE QUESTION OF OUR COLLEGES came up for adjustment, and we held publie meetings in advocacy of a lilieral, non-deiionii-uatiouul jHilicy in their management.An amended charter was obtained for McGill securing this end, nnd the University of Toronto waa placed on a similar hisis.Our annual meeting* of Bible, Tract, and Sunday-school Societie* were wont to lie held* at ilifferent iwriod* of the year a» th»-ir oouimittoo» might deteimine.It fell to my lot to suggest an anni-vertary week, which has been the course for nearly all the years since thu erection of the lai-r;» Methodist Church on 8t.James street.Our Orphan Asylum, Ladies\u2019 Benevolent Hociety, and other charities demanded and obtained such help aa one could afford in the advocacy of their claims.The late Dr.Bethune, Mr.E»*oa and myself, with a numlier of lay gentlemen, inaugurated the High School, the clerical portion of the originators retiring from a proud-n«nt position from motive* of e.x|)ea-ary Society.Ob.it wu* hard work fori Su to ask any one for money.But tlrey allow me to tell my stoiy in their p dpit*.and tfi*l read my print»d appeal, and 1 inovid among them » flen weary, and hrnit as well a* foot sore, srd.ss the tcsulViif the six mouth*\u2019 loil, l brought with me L*1 (NHI sterling, and p»td for th \u2022 laud which, indeed, had beeu purchased in my name.Î LAST EDITION.Monday, October 14, 1878.THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS Bat thrp- wim \u2022¦\u2018ill » heavy incubiw of debt which w tint htUnl off for Nome yeore, and which uei.* .-H irili .itfrcted unfavorably th# inluia-terial Rtii>end.* or fifteen yean» 1 received con-¦iderubly leaa than my minwterlal l>rethren in the cily of the «aine «tainiinK.Ib»t I neither aturveil, nor did I incur debt;

ia deed, from a misUken dread lest I should be found preaching myself rather than Christ, 7 have never done my very best in elalsirating » discourse\u2014hardly ever having written one twice, do not commend this.We ought to produce W the very best we can, now and again, and yet do it not for our own credit and distinction, but for the of our Master.Yet, I do not repent my one prevailing desire for usefulness in my preaching ; that I commend to all.And now, thirdly, THE (JODWARl) OK TRUTH bas lieen made prominent in my ministry There is a humanitarianUm in the pulpit some times which grievously sins by omission.I be lieve in man\u2019s communion with Cod, as well os in the communion of saints.We may not without great and fatal hsw neglect the claims of God.He, great, glorious, and blessed\u2014He mutt be magnitied and adored if we are to be good, practical < \u2019hristians.You may dilate on the beauty of virtue, insist on a manly and honorable course of life, fling scorn and contempt on the little, the mean, the wrong, and you may do some good and avert some evil ; but, if you would transform men into lovers of truth and righteousness, lovers of one another in Christ, you must draw them into personal contact with the ever-blessed Cod in Christ Jesus our Lord ; they must come to the Cross of the Redeemer, look up to Him in faith, trust, and consecration, and thus live ! If we keep our people at the nether springs, not only will they lack the kind of water they need, but the springs themselves will become dry to them.The upper springs feed the lower, take them up to the higher plane, have had to tight many a battle against what , I rw'vded as exaggerations and errors in the |\tOrthodox, and have insisted on deal- ,\\ tf/Pi.ditti.1 but THE GRAND 0U> VERITIES THEMSELVES STAND FAST as the throne of Cod ! I have seen them work marvels on men and women\u2014marvels of grace.Pastoral work\u2014I understand it to include, \u201c Watching for souls as they who must give account.*\u2019 and this necessarily demands no little personal intercourse.I have sometimes thought that more l»enetit was conferred on many of my hearers by such private ministration than by pulpit utterances.My habit was to have an hour or more three times a week in my vestry, os-¦igund to this kind of service.Enquirers, person* spiritually in perplexity, and those in sorrow ami those in doubt were wont to come to me with their questions, their doubts, their trials and receive pastoral counsel and instruction.( ur churches throughout the country having increased in number, involving augmented labor on my parkin correspondence and otherwise, my Miguwenients and pulpit preparation precluded much or frequent visiting except in caom of sickness ; but this access to myself at stat-l and known hours supplied some of the want.I have great reason to be grateful for NO INCONSIDERABLE SUCCES».Very many have lieen led to embrace the Saviour In Ilia blessed person and work as all in all to them.Very many have encouraged ra« by declaring their indebtedness to this Ministry under God for groat comfort and strength in thh trial and battle of life, and others for mental and Siritual training in the school of Christ.To im who helped me and blessed my work be all the praise.I would that more hail been done in the way of self-improvement, and that I had used to much greater extent the power of the press.Let my younger brethren take note of this regret and foster by their every effort A HEALTHY LITERATURE.Let them cultivate the talent and use it w»dl.Our Denominational Mmjazine lias never !>een fairly treated by any of us.Let the name not be said of the coiniug weekly.And now ago crept on, though vigour remained.A three months\u2019 holiday, in\tenabled me to revisit friends in England and Scotland, to insixict the , Exposition in Paris, and to attend the meeting of the Evangelical Alliance in Amsterdam, Holland.In ISGU, the death of Dr.Little, at the V commencement of our College Session, laid on me extra work in the matter of college lectures.t Id 1870 the brethren in the West and here, and in England, called me into my nresent position, and thus in the following May the pastorate was transferred to the Rev.Charles Chapman, and I BECAME MRRXLY PASTOR EMERITUS.I need not speak of ray subsequent ministry during the last seven years ; it has included no little preaching both in Canada and England, where six months of 1874 were spent ; but its main effort has been to bring to bear upon the yonng men who are preparing to enter upon their great and important work whatever of acquirement and of experience I may hare obtained by God\u2019s goodness during this long ministry.And now what shall be the conclusion of thu imperfect review of a ministry extending over half a century ?Before the I xml I bow with humility, because of much short-coming and imperfection, and I lift un my heart with thanksgivings for unnumbered favors.Whatever planting and sowing I may have dine, it was He that gave the increase.Before my fellow-man I bear testimony that SEI.P-DENIAL AND SELF-SACRIFICE ?in God\u2019s service becomes in one\u2019s hand a cup of * jo> and blessing.The choice made tifty years f \u2019Î vindicated by the issue.Wealth was not \u2019S and it did not come, and sometimes .i^itive poverty waa for the time inconven-wipt usefulness one\u2019s fellow-tusn was inted through God\u2019s goodness it did come ' \u2019 -uantly.One exceedingly rejoices not to nave lived in vain.One is thankful beyond measure that the ministry has left its impr*v< for food on \u2022 great multitude of people here a ad /ea wrtiiounx, anu nave lusuiwt'u uu ucaa-.tUHicult queatiimn with common Beiifle9 )A elsewhere.There is a spiritual forae that descends fr> id one generation to another, so that we bring «lead, in due lime, yet s|>«4k.I have loved this work of ministry in all its («arts wi.h a sort of passionate fondness, notwithstanding i its trials ami

PRESS.TIIU LATH FOMTICAL CHANOK.(AVow the London Telegraph (Conurvotive).Lord Lorne\u2019s farewell address to his old constituents reminds us that the constitutional question iu Victoria is not the only topic of luifierial interest which has risen of late to the surface of colonial politics.It may lie that the Empire is entering on ane-rn in its history when it will he of the utmost importance that all its children should ttuud united shoulder to shoulder.It may he that, not alone in the arena of war or |s htica, hut even in that of trade, the supremacy of Gieat Britain may.ivs lias been suggested by Mr.Gladstone, be rudely challenged, and in that case it is only common prudence to urge upon all British subjects the necessity of working together for the common good,instead of warring with each other aa if they were foreigners and foes.Lord Lorne, though he spoke in an optimist view of the great Dominion which he is going forth to rule, cannot exi>ect that bis career there will bo one of unruffled tranquillity.Nor can Kir Michael Hicks-lieacb forget that there are not wanting signs that the relations between England and her offshoots might bear improvement.In a moment of danger all hearts rally to the support of the Throne, the common Snihol of Imperial unity and strength.But ie Empire must have some other source of strength than the enthusiasm occasionally evolved hy exceptional exigencies.Therefore, iu view of certain remarkable events that have re cently hap|>ened across the Atlantic, it is ueces -sarv to face the diflicidties which seem to be gathering round our Golonial Empire, and to consider what remedies may be found for them.The considerable share of popular attention which has Ireen directed to British North America .f late, in some measure because the selection of the new Governor General was an exceptional step, has not been barren of results.We have found out,that even in Canada, the appointment of the (Queen\u2019s son-in-law to her Viceregal throne has not sufficed to still the murmured menace of Stparatism.The obstinate people of British Columbia persist in threatening to break up the Union unless a railway is built which would simply bring Canada to bankruptcy.All over the Dominion, too, there is a powerful party whose leaders have l>een detected «lotting with the United States to organize a \u201cCustoms Union,\" in virtue of which the American Republic and the Canadian colonies would trails freely with each other whilst they shut out England from their markets.And the last intelligence is that the Mackenzie Ministry has been thoroigti-lyjbeatc-n and the Conservative party, headed by KirJ.Macdonald, has been returned 11 p »'v.«r by a vast majority.Doubtless the Canadian Liberal is a very different kind of politician from the English Liberal, and the same may be s rid of the Canadian Tory.Still, the triumph of the Macdonald party is a serious affair for Kuglaud, coining as it does just now, when her trade is had, and when owing to the closuie of lier markets, the foolish cry of \u201c over-production \u2019\u2019 is being raised in the North ; for the Canadian Conservatives, like their congeners in England when Lord George Bentinck was their leader, are vdolent Protectionists.11 is their declared policy to establish such a tariff as shall effectually exclude Britinh goods from the Canadian market, and it is just possible that many of those who voted for them would also support a scheme for forming a commercial partnership with the United States, a union which would he in the strictest sense hostile to the Mother Countrj.We need not consider just now how much of that growing prosperity of ( \\vnadn is natural and how much artificial.But at least if a prohibitory protective tariff lie applied to Canada her grow-Jrg prosperity will soon cease to afford a theme for congratulatory comment.No oouht, if Canada consisted of a great aggregation of self-sufficing States like t\u2018.e Atus-rican Republic, with Free Trade in force among them, the mischief of Protectionism might be minimized.If she were able to trade freely with the American Union, the lois of the European supply of manufactured articles might he Istroe.But the Dominion cannot meet her citizens' wants except at a ruinous sacrifice.If she trades with the United States freely, then the one plea for the prohibitory tariff \u2014protection to native industry breaks down.Reciprocity with the Americans will not fost-r Canadian induetry, hut must immolate it on the shrine of Yankee comixAitiou; and the question for Can-min to consider is reduced to elemental simplicity.Under a reciprocity treaty with the States she may hope to escape from the more ruinous effect* of Protection ; but th»n she will transfer her custom to foreign dealers.If that custom has to lie transferred at all, why not give the Mother Country the lienefft of it, more especially a* wu do not want exceptional advantages over the American Republic, lint are ready to compete witli her o|h nly* asking but a \u201c fair field and no favor ?\u201d We cannot, therefore, affect to regard the Iwvt movement in Canadian )>olitic* with complacency.To enforce a violent prohibitory tariff against England\u2014 indeed, to threateu u* with exclusion \u2014in order to give a foreign nation the tienefit of our own market, is a little trying to the temper of the country when its trade is bad and it is suffering from a suddenly contracted outlet for its goods.Much a policy is anything but a link in tne chain of sympathy and affection which, we are told, and doubtless with truth, hinds Canada to the Mother Country .Lord Lorne\u2019s connection with the Royal Family ought to be a standing reminder to the provinces under his rule that they are.after all, integral part* of a mighty Empire, iu whose glories they can only bo|>e to tiarticipate hy working with and not against those who have bnilt up the splendid fabric of its prosperity.The Poorer ('lashes in Constantinople are as present in great distress, owing to the high | rice which charcoal has reached in that city, that of goed quality costing so much that th-y have the greatest difficulty in providing themselves with fuel for cooking and o:her necessary purposes.The charcoal dealers represent as the main causes of the present high price of that fuel that some of the forests in tho neighhortiood of the capital, the wood of which aerved for conversion into charcoal, have been wasted and almost destroyed ; that access to others is forbidden by spicisl State regulations; that the hoik of the woodcutters, who are for the most part Mussulmans, have Wen withdrawn to serve under arms during the war, and that Wasts of burden for transport bave liecome so scarce as to be aim-vet unattainable.The other day a large b»dy of Tmkish women made a public demonstration witb the view of calling attention to the sad c< ndition to which they and their fancies were reduced owing t* this dearness of charcoal and other nei\u2019cssarirs of life, and were with difficulty pacified by au official assurance that sUqie would Ik- taken, a* far as practicable, to

Dost thou not return to thv father y Even so did God say to the people of Israel through Jeremiah the prophet, when they had sinned, Return (.1er.J: 12) : whereat I «rati answered, 4 With what countenance can I return to God r\u2019 Whereupon God said to them,4 My childn n, if you return, do you not return to your father r\u2019 \" 44 The portion of gisais that falleth to me\u201d is a Biblical orientalism, to be properly explains! from Deuteronomy 21 : 17.The Tal-mudifts give a reason for it, and for the punishment of the stubborn and rebellious son Deut.21 : 18-21); but they are rather fanciful.The stubborn and rebellious son, iu their eyes, was he who would, finally, waste his father\u2019» substance with riotous living.Yet they were partly right : it is one kind of stubborn rebellion.It is also entirely in accordance with modern oriental ideas.No vice of youth is so hateful to the soberer, older people as extravagance and the waste of money.Many gross vices which are not generally to be named anu ng us ire common 11 tfairs with them, and not thought worthy of special blame.It is not wrong to gamble, provided one win», but a heinous sin if he lows : and here a catalogue i f sins might be added which the oriental mind dors not think very heinous if it does not cost too much.It i* uo disgrace to a rich man's son to be seen iu very bad company, or to fiequent the low places of riot and amusement ; but when his vices ls*gin to draw too heavily on the paternal purse, then Lucre is trouble: then matters become sinful.In the Eastern towns, a raf- chantant, a sort -if Levantine counterpart of the low music-halls of Lotodon and Paris (if not of New York and Philadelphia will now and then bo broken up.and the vile creatures who have practised and exhibited there will Is: sent off ; but the reason always is that some rich man's son has been led by the sirens into too great extravagance : never that the place was a nuisance, or a hot-bed of corruption.Nor is it at all disgraceful to the mind of the ordinary high-toned official to see a crowd of youths, including his s« n, perhaps, assembled on shipboard publicly to bid good-bye to the banished.Sometimes, moreover, great cruelty is shown to those who are so bauishi-d on account of their ^stliness.It seems scarcely necessary to mention that verse 13 shows the extreme degradation to which the prodigal son was reduced.To feed swine was not only a degrading office, but involved ceremonial uneleanliness ; separation from the Jews as long as it lasted.In itself it would have been a banishment hail he been in his own country.The same finding still prevails in Syria and Palestine, and indeed wherever Jews or Mohammedans dwell, against sw ine.The writer does nut remember to have ever s» en un animal of the sort in Palestine ; though in some places wild boars exist still.Familiarity with the habits of Europeans, and seeing hums and bacon for sale iu the sh >ps, have perhaps deadened the native finding some.The writer has seen a Muslim take up a ham-bone by mistake, and laugh at himself for it ; but others would be distressed or indignant.Tbe 44 hunks that the swine did eat'\u2019 are also now familiarly known to lie the pod* of the Ctratonxa tiiioua of Li no ten*, the kharnb of the native*.But had we the Greek alone to depend upon for the name, there is a posni-bility of mistake in the application.The rendering of the Old Syriac Testament Arabic.Other names are Greek beans, and St John's bread.It is one of the product* of the earth which, like mint, anise and cummin, was to he tithed, because 44 it hail black dots\u201d or point*.Which, by t he way, is a coincident'characteristic with the St.John's Wort, or Hypericum, of our American fields; though whether the Talmud mennt the same kind of Mack dota is rather more than doubtful.The kharnb is a noble tree, and is met with all the way from Southern France to the Orient.Its jsxls usually hang curved (whence the Greek name, meaning little horns), and are much like those of the honey-loenst of the North-eastern l nitnl States, though firmer and thicker.The 1 leans arc an article of food, not at all despised or loathsome, among the poorer cliiHKcn ;
