It was tlio morning after tlie equlnoc- tunl storm, the nir was warm mul balmy, and all nature seemed glad to welcome tlie merry sunshine oneo more. AsAmr party wns whirled to the Fubyan station by a pair of flue spirited horses; .. our spirits rose at each advancing st,ep, tit the pleasant anticipation of n visit to the highest peak of the "White Mountains, Mt. Washington, the father of them till. Ditr- ing a lovely ride of eight miles iu open cars to the huso of the mountain, far iu tho distance.could be seen ti narrow, ser- peutiuo patlh parts of which looked til- most perpendicular, winding its crooked way up thousands of feet. This, wo were- informcd, Was the Mt. Washington cog-. rnUwny that wo were about to ascend, and to summon nil tho courage at ottr com- mand for the occasion. This we were prepared to do, but llko many difficulties in life, which ut time rise mountain high, tho ascent wns not'nearly as .frightful as it appeared. Having no sensation of fear, our minds were left free to enjoy the gran- deur of tlio scenery, and as we gradually ascended tlio mountain, and new scenos met our gaze, wo thought with Tetitiysou on boholding tho sea: “ Would that my tongue could utter the-thoughts that arise in me.” - ' There was a senso of humiliation hesldo the grandeur of tlio scene, and the . heart went out iu silent adoration to the Creator of such beauty uutl majesty. Well "may . the poet sing: ' *• Jlango alter range sublimely piled cm high. Yon lofty monritaine prop tho incumbent sky, Such countless tops osccml, so vast the heap, As if, wlieu gushed the'deluge from tho deep. The rushing torronts wrecked tho guilty world, And all tho rocky fragments thither whirled.” Upon roachinghn immonsqbasin known ns tlie GuU of Mexico, tlio engine stopped a few minutes, allowing tho passengers to walk to the edge, where.thousands.of feet below could bo seen a small lake, mirror- ing -the surrounding landscape. While passing oyer tlio steepest part of the road, known-its “ Jacob’s Ladder,” a lady in- quired of the conductor why It was so. called. . lie answered perhaps with more gallantry than.truth, “ Because so many angels pass oyer, ma’am.”- Wluin'we reached tho summit the wind was blowing at tlio rate of fifty tidies nu .hour, and Winter clothing was found jiccptabU', nltliough It'wus much -warmer than tho day before, when tho. thermom- ’ eter stood at SO3. In a day or two later tlio mountain was covered with snow. A few feet from the top a wooden monu- ment marks the spot where thlrty-ono years ago this month a young lady per- ished wldle her brother was in’search of the hotel. .

AUG. 20, 1880. • TEXT JOHN 19:5. The speaker said: “The aim of the gospel, is restored manhood. Sin converted men into beasts. The problem which God undertook to solve nt Calvary wns to undo this work. I know the common notion, thut Christ (lied to tako men to heaven. Not so. Tie died tprcstoro man- hood, as only reconstructed man can pass tho gate of heaven. Christ came to earth for this purpose. I want to direct the attention of this great congregation to such study of Christ's manhood as shall help all to u higher and nobler life. And, first, I remark "that we see in Christ, as.a man, a living illustration of human per. feetion. It is not a part of my purpose now to speak at length of Christ’s moral or spiritual perfections; This is a con- stant, subject of pulpit Instruction,, mul may , be assumed to be well understood. He knew no sin;. lie kept all tbe: law of God perfectly. It .is not so much tlie custom of reli- gious teachers to speak of Christ’s perfect human, intellect, heuco of this I would speak a , little more ut length. ■ In this respect, merely as n man, I Ic stands alone among men. It is true His greatness was not recognized even hy those wlio knew Him best.' Ho was disguised iu the garb of simplicity. Ho was free from pedantry, from the cant of culturo. lie had none of the strut of limited scholarship; un pride of intellect, lie was intellectually too broad for such defects." The worljl was not sufficiently developed to.beablo to recognize such a perfection as Ilis. Groat men usually share tin’s experience with ilim. It is not until some ono has dis- covered tlie groat num and proclaimed him that the world dares to!believe in him. Christ’s human mind easily grasped the greatest truths. In, His childhood lie confronted . tho doctors wlio, as doctors often do, know so little yet thought they know so much, nnd.in ‘after life, though often confronted with the best minds of Ills day, He never-failed to silence un antagonist. Though uncultivated as men speak Ills simplest sayings became tin* world’s classics. But I am cross-exam- Ined; * Was He n poet, or a scientist, or a philosopher V* The names of great men in these departments are mentioned, and I am asked,' *Is lie greater tlmn these V*. I answer tlmt IIo was uioro than a poet, or scientist, or philosopher. These terms describe one-sided men, partially devel- oped men, who attract attention to one side of their nature by neglecting other sides. 116 was many-sided. The world’s great moti aro prismatic colors. These colors, iu Christ, blend and disappear iu the pure white light of perfect manhood. Intellectually, IIo 1ms never had au equal. But wo need, to vomoniber that Ho was perfect physically, also." The lamb-for tho sacrifice, without spot or blemish, or any such thing was Ills'type, lie had good physical health, and Ills body there fore did not hinder Ilis mental processes. You cannot imagine Jesus struggling with u Jit of Indigestion, or. uqtlued for work’ by.u'siek headache,.resulting from errors of diet.- lie was physically - vigorous. Leonardo de Vince’s wonderful medallion head.of Christ in, the' Cathedral at Ant- werp is not true to "this Ideal.: It,repre- sents His spiritual L nature remarkably, but riot. Ills ' superior physical manhood, except in.its fineness. It,gives no hm tbf His perfect manhood qualities. . } And then Christ was• also perfect, in tlie balance of His nature. No one.part of His being flourished at tho cost of any other, TJiero was harmony between body and souL He was fullorbed. Secondly: The perfect man Jesus is set before us iu the,completeness of liteman- hood,.as our model ,or pattern- AYe must endeavor to ‘become like Him spiritually, and ever seek in this sense to become per-; feet us He was. But this-is not all—He is just as': iniicli, our ;pattern inteJlectuully,; and .we must try jilst as liafd for Intellec* trial as for spiritual perfection. If we are negligent here, we -shall not be&uccessfui there. Nor ..is this all. We -must also niih at perfect physical man)lbod, and try as earnestly for a sound body as for a pure spirit. Sin lias harmed us' in nil these respects, and Christ came to restore us in them all* and so to undo the xvork; of tlws devil. And further, we "must carry on this development harmoniously. Failure here will perpetuate many evils. Men me segregated, society Is stratified by par- tial development. "Whole nations nro only animal—splendid beasts. Then there are intellectual circles who reach .much refine- ment and strength .of mind, but who are unmindful of the spiritual, and who scorn tlio body. And tlie.se are mistaken devo- tees, undoubtedly pious persons who despise the body and the intellect us well. We have Illustrations in art, whore We see tho schools of tho physical or sensual. So in literature. See tho poets and writers of fiction. The same thing nppeurs in the church. The pulpit sifts mien into classes by its own characteristics. Theio is the man of brains who belabors the‘pulpit while ho thrills his audience with his lhagnetisnij which Is of tlio body, but who is relatively weak In thought and spiritual powers. Tliere is the profound reusoner without force, and there is the sapless devotee who is a pattern of useless negative goodness, who is destitute of force of intellect and strength of body. 'Among tho people we see the same- tiling. Some don't want emotional preaching, and some won’t hear any otlier kind. .Some like the minister who is ciiielly literary, and brings his libra- ry with liim Into tlio bulpit. Some pre'- fer.the intellectual preacher, while many will never go a second time to’hear tlie preacher wlio makes them think. They can’t stand the unusual exertion. \ . . Men who will not learn to think cannot please God. They sin and will lose their, souls unless saved at the last by repenting of tli is as of other, sins. God wants the hutul -restored - nud points us to Christ. The world’s salvation is hindered by want of brain and brawn. Wo don’t live right. We lack grit; Jesus walked all over Palestine. We must take the ears to go a few squares to church. .. ' Because the people are mentally indo- lent tlie preacher can’t hold them. He can’t compete with tlie Sunday paper imd dime novel. He can’t satisfy minds accus- tomed to liashy entertainments. And tho preacher often fails for want of physique. What can a nervous wreck in tho pul pit do. I tell you, to serve God well • we must not only he good in tlie common sense of the term, but. we must do all we canto bo strong in mind nnd body,. I preach the gospel of right living. Christ means hy. giene and Intellectual culture Justus much as love nml,faith and holiness. The ideal Christian is a vigorous man whoso nerves are in good^onditiou.tmd who can eat and sleep umf work with equal zest. The to- bacco-clubbed brain cannot bo at its best, and the food clogged man is-not.truly ji man. ; , The more we look at this perfect Christ the more we shall discover of Ilis'beauty. There are great discoveries' await lug us here. I used to think Ului severely good and stonily holy;-. But Ilis tenderness and sweetness have grown upon me. And tlie, result of much looking nt Jesus will" be assimilation. We shall grow moro .and more like Him. And when He shall appear In all His glory we shall .bo like him, and outshine tlie sun in all his splendor; We shall shine by the splendor of a glorified man- hood. ' Moro Taylor Missionaries. company of nine missionaries will sail on Oct. 2 to reinforce Bishop Taylor’ in Africa.'-,Thoso already in New York are W. II.

They extend inland several hundred miles. The missionaries, like those;who have gone from New York heretofore to join Bishop Taylor, go prepared to bc'selfcup- porting. ' ’ Neal Dow, " . Tlie editor of the 6 7 AdeyMtc has had an interview recently with tiie apostle of Prohibition and gives the following racy reminiscencs: Interesting us tlie interview was upon tlie subject of Prohibition, Gen. Dow him- self was far more interesting tlmn any- thing lie said. As tbe . father of Prohibi- tion, ns a soldier in the lute war, aud its n man of extraordinary mental force and vigor in view of his age, lie is <l person- ality whom any one would be glad to meet. Gen. Dow entered .the cars nt Portland Mth .the agility "of a youth returning home from boarding school. In. conversation lie displayed the precision, the force, and the fluency of a man forty years of age, io full health and vigor. Nor wasthcre any- thing, except the whiteness of his hair, which would; suggest a greater age. So impressed witli his youth fulness were we as to say: General, n New York paper recently said that you were nearly eighty years'of age ; this can hardly be true.” “ No,” said tho General, “ it is not true: I was ciylOyJtco last March.” -Yet lie. con- versed with great vivacity for. two hours, though lie had beeu. speaking every day and sQvend times a day. in tlie political campaign, and was to make his last speech prior to the election on tlmt Saturday even- ing after leaving tlie train. To the question as to what lie attributed his extraordinary health and activity, Im replied: “ Chiefly to having come of good stock.” 1 IBs ancestors were Qqakevs who lived . temperate, industrious, open-air lives. Ili» father was ninety-five years old when he died, and his. father’s grand- mother one hundred and two when she died. Three tlilugs, lie said, no doubt lmd much to do with*his health and longevity: He had never , used ardent spirits at auy time, he had never touched tobacco, and he Imd made it a rnle never to over-eat. These oft-tohl rules are still the maiii reli- ance, notwithstanding now aiul then we find a hoary-headed, rum-soaked nnd tobnc- co^uturnted sinner standing an apparent contradiction to nature—as iu tlio dark, underground cellars of Cork you may find somo agen crone, reeking In. fi!tli, but nearly a hundred years old. Knowing thnt Gen. Dow had beeu Incar- cerated iu Libby Prison during the war, we asked hlui if lie happened to meet Chiiplnin M’C’abe. lie remembered "him with much-.pleasure. Then*"whether the siiiferitigs of our people were as", great as .reported Y . lie said that they Were;'thnt the Southerners were poor, and had a hard time to furnish supplies even for their own. people: but tlie Northerners would not have been so badly off as.they were if the supplies thut were’ set for them by friends had - not often been appropriated by many of (lie .Southern, officers. A very interesting story ilpated around duviug tho war about Gen. Morgan, who escaped from -an Ohio penitentiary, and visited Libby. AVo asked Gen. Dow if the story was true. He said it was. General Morgan, finding 'Dow iu Libby Prison, said: “ Gen. Dow* I am gltul to see you in tlie South.” To which Gen. Dow replied: “ Considering tlmt you are in the South, I am glnd to see you, Gen. Morgan ” . Gen. Morgan, lie said, went on to denounce very warmly the manner in which the prison- ers in Libby were treated, saying that lie himself had been well taken care of. At this point tho General left the. train, leaving -us to reflect- tlmt age .is,;indeed, not a question of the calendar, but of inter- .Now what is the outlook for the Million est in the progress of mankind and mental in-1890 ? and physical force sufficient to maintain1Cush receipt io Aug. a i ..... ...................5.vi7,702 mi activity | haU 5 ;ear the Fall Conferences a»ive.... kw.Nm flo Last Sabbath's Services, i)it. >tok i:s at niK '.urm niH trM .

The temperature was delightful and the. chief interest of tlie hour centered in a forty-five minute sermon by the president, Dr. E. II. Stokes. He had only returned to the grounds after a two weeks vacation trip on : tlie preced- ing day, and failing to secure u supply, Was Induced to officiate himself, preach, lug, as lie said, for the. second time since its enlargement, In the great Auditorium, lie explained that this was because he always found a minister present to fill tlie place, and generally lmd so much else on hand' during the height of the season tliat a substitute was always welcome. Kev. Dr. .Stratton was*present and offer- ed tiie opening prayer, while Kev. Mr. Thornley read the script me lessons. The sermon was founded •on 1’salm 5)2: 12, Iff, 14. “ The righteous shall flourish like tlie palm tree” Ac. ! This Psalm, he remarked,.after quoting its title and. pur- port, contains three prominent topics— the supremacy of God, tlie brief prosper- ity, but fearful ruin of the ungodly, and the enduring vigor and final success-of the righteous. To tlie latter, , he directed chiefly his remarks in exposition and ap- plication. • ‘After defining “righteousness” inward and external, he*showed tlie conditions of growth, “planted In the house of the Lord” and a vital union with Christ, by which alone tlie soul .can “ flourish.” Illustra- tions were drawn from trees, and tree- planting, soil and climate, in their rela- tions to fruitfulness, and examples were referred to of the freshness and useful- ness of tlii* aged In the service of' Clirist, and connected with his visible Church. The Doctor presided at the usual after- noon meeting, reading as the lesson of the occasion Ephesians ff: 8-21—u chapter so full of spiritual unction and power tlmt the lines of thought and experience it suggested filled up an intensely profitable hour. Hardly u verse. or clause in the passage under* consideration but was re- viewed, analyzed and-adapted to the Chris- tiau life of those present; only, in e.very instance, the sublimity of Paul’s concep- tions and the vastiiess of human privilege beyond ordinary attainment was acknowl. edged by all. Tlie service closed with .a .season of earnest prayer for the, restqra- lion to health of Key. G. IL Watson,.D.l)., who was reported to the. meeting as being tn'u state of great- nervous feebleness -and consequent mental despondency.; Tlie evening, sermon was delivered in tiie Tabernacle by thy editor of- T he ’Kkc.- out), from. 1 Kings. Iff.: 11-12, referring to Elijah at Uoreb, and the marvellous vis- ion which' passed before him, of the whirl- wind,’the earthquake, and fire, and -after, the fire, a *■ still, small voice.” The condition of things in Isniel, under Ahab's wicked reign, and tlio threats of Jezebel upou the 11 fe of tlie Lord’s prophet, were referred to as teaching in tlie midst Of deepest provocation, tlie forbearance andmercy of God. Judgment is his strange work, and he delightetU’in mercy.- With all elements of destruction at ’his ready command, he yet suffers long and is kind.. His .method is to win and save, not to devastate and destroy. * Tiie passage was also used in a figura- tive sense to show'the process of conver- sion—the levelling pofier of conviction, tlie heart.sorrow awakened by. guilt, the separation^, sin from the soul, as by re- fining five, mid tlie conscious assurance of. iieart peace, iu the “still, Hindi voice’- of reconciliation and acceptance through the atonement,' . At St. 1’mil's, Kev. Mr. Darnell,of Flor- ida, preached ut lO.ffO aVm., and Kev.S.

I), in Home OndrtUan. Stand Fast. Mu. Enrrojt:—I think it would be pleasant and interesting to your renders to-, know something of tho influence of Ocean Grove on tlie home churches. Therefore permit me to relate, tlie experience of a sister, as narrated in n conversation wo had just before she left .the Grove last • week. She is a member of the Dutch Re- formed Church, and where the women are nut permitted to speak in public. A few. j years ago at Ocean Grove, she-received the blessing of sauetification, and against all opposition, she has held aloft the banner of,holiness both by viuee and life. ' One time a vfcrv precious frieml came lo her .to persuade lief against speaking in tiie meetings, she being tlie only woman ., that d id ;so. .She asked the Lord'for a " message from the word, denoting his will in this matter,utul opened to.this verse’:' "•Ye that make tli mention of. the Lord, keep not silence.” . Another time/me. oi the official bretli-' r'en spoke to Iier,' disapproving of lier enurse. She went to Jesus for direction mid was given this verse:. “ We ought rather to obey God than man.” Another time her daughter c’amc to her and said: a M«, don’t speak at tho meeting, it morti- fies me, anil 1 don’t wftnt to gor for they are all opposed to it.:’ Satan said, you are driving your child away from God by your persistence. God does not require this of; you. She took this also to Jesus, and i*e- . ceived in answer, “ Ho tlmflbveth son or daughter more than me is not worth of me,” . Again several of the huly members of the church, nil valued friends, united to persuade her to give up sjaaiking, having received immysllglits and cold looks from those sh.e loved on account of her perse- veranee in doing what "site believed God required of her. At this appeal her soul was stirred .within her. She went to the ‘ throne of grace-almost broken-hearted for God’s word of coinfort and promise .ami she received this; “ Be ye steadfast, un- •! movable,.always abounding in-The work of Joties, of the Newark Conlerence,-.in the. t|,e Lonjt j’or JIS njnch as ye know.that '. evening.

Among th s Clouds.I t was tlio morning after tlie equlnoc-

tunl storm, the nir was warm mul balmy, and all nature seemed glad to welcome tlie merry sunshine oneo more.■ AsAmr party wns whirled to the Fubyan station by a pair of flue spirited horses;

.. our spirits rose at each advancing st,ep, tit the pleasant anticipation of n visit to the highest peak of the "White Mountains, Mt. Washington, the father of them till. Ditr- ing a lovely ride of eight miles iu open cars to the huso of the mountain, far iu tho distance.could be seen ti narrow, ser- peutiuo patlh parts of which looked til- most perpendicular, winding its crooked way up thousands of feet. This, wo were- informcd, Was the Mt. Washington cog-. rnUwny that wo were about to ascend, and to summon nil tho courage at ottr com­mand for the occasion. This we were prepared to do, but llko many difficulties in life, which ut time rise mountain high, tho ascent wns not'nearly as .frightful as it appeared. Having no sensation of fear, our minds were left free to enjoy the gran­deur of tlio scenery, and as we gradually ascended tlio mountain, and new scenos met our gaze, wo thought with Tetitiysou on boholding tho sea: “ Would that my tongue could utter the-thoughts that arise in me.” - '

There was a senso of humiliation hesldo the grandeur of tlio scene, and the . heart went out iu silent adoration to the Creator of such beauty uutl majesty. Well "may

The speaker said: “The aim of the gospel, is restored manhood. Sin converted men into beasts. The problem which God undertook to solve nt Calvary wns to undo this work. I know the common notion, thut Christ (lied to tako men to heaven. Not so. Tie died tprcstoro man- hood, as only reconstructed man can pass tho gate of heaven. Christ came to earth for this purpose. I want to direct the attention of this great congregation to such study of Christ's manhood as shall help all to u higher and nobler life. And, first, I remark "that we see in Christ, as.a man, a living illustration of human per. feetion. It is not a part of my purpose now to speak at length of Christ’s moral or spiritual perfections; This is a con­stant, subject of pulpit Instruction,, mul may , be assumed to be well understood. He knew no sin;. lie kept all tbe: law of God perfectly.

I t .is not so much tlie custom of reli­gious teachers to speak of Christ’s perfect human, intellect, heuco of this I would speak a , little more ut length. ■ In this respect, merely as n man, I Ic stands alone among men. It is true His greatness was not recognized even hy those wlio knew Him best.' Ho was disguised iu the garb of simplicity. Ho was free from pedantry, from the cant of culturo. lie had none of the strut of limited scholarship; un pride of intellect, l ie was intellectually too broad for such defects." The worljl was not sufficiently developed to .b eab lo to recognize such a perfection as Ilis. Groat men usually share tin’s experience with ilim . It is not until some ono has dis­covered tlie groat num and proclaimed him that the world dares to!believe in him.

Christ’s human mind easily grasped the greatest truths. In , His childhood lie confronted . tho doctors wlio, as doctors often do, know so little yet thought they know so much, nnd.in ‘after life, though often confronted with the best minds of Ills day, He never-failed to silence un antagonist. Though uncultivated as men speak Ills simplest sayings became tin* world’s classics. But I am cross-exam- Ined; * Was He n poet, or a scientist, or a philosopher V* The names of great men in these departments are mentioned, and I am asked,' * Is lie greater tlmn these V*. I answer tlmt IIo was uioro than a poet, or scientist, or philosopher. These terms describe one-sided men, partially devel­oped men, who attract attention to one side of their nature by neglecting other sides. 116 was many-sided. The world’s great moti aro prismatic colors. These colors, iu Christ, blend and disappear iu the pure white light of perfect manhood. Intellectually, IIo 1ms never had au equal. But wo need, to vomoniber that Ho was perfect physically, also." The lam b-for tho sacrifice, without spot or blemish, or any such thing was Ills 'type, lie had good physical health, and Ills body there fore did not hinder Ilis mental processes. You cannot imagine Jesus struggling with u Jit of Indigestion, or. uqtlued for work’ by.u'siek headache,.resulting from errors of diet.- l ie was physically - vigorous.

Leonardo de Vince’s wonderful medallion head.of Christ in, the ' Cathedral at Ant­werp is not true to "this Ideal.: It,repre­sents His spiritual L nature remarkably, but riot. I lls ' superior physical manhood, except in.its fineness. It,gives no h m tb f His perfect manhood qualities. . }

And then Christ was• also perfect, in tlie balance of His nature. No one.part of His being flourished at tho cost of any other, TJiero was harmony between body and souL He was fullorbed.

Secondly: The perfect man Jesus is set before us iu the,completeness of liteman- hood,.as our model ,or pattern- AYe must endeavor to ‘become like Him spiritually, and ever seek in this sense to become per-; feet us He was. But this-is not all—He is just as': iniicli, our ;pattern inteJlectuully,; and .we must try jilst as liafd for Intellec* trial as for spiritual perfection. I f we are negligent here, we -shall not be&uccessf ui there. Nor ..is this all. We -must also niih at perfect physical man)lbod, and try as earnestly for a sound body as for a pure spirit. Sin lias harmed us' in nil these respects, and Christ came to restore us in them all* and so to undo the xvork; of tlws devil. And further, we "must carry on this development harmoniously. Failure here will perpetuate many evils. Men me segregated, society Is stratified by par­tial development. "Whole nations nro only animal—splendid beasts. Then there are intellectual circles who reach .much refine­ment and strength .of mind, but who are unmindful of the spiritual, and who scorn tlio body. And tlie.se are mistaken devo­tees, undoubtedly pious persons who despise the body and the intellect us well. We have Illustrations in art, whore We see tho schools of tho physical or sensual. So in literature. See tho poets and writers of fiction.

The same thing nppeurs in the church. The pulpit sifts mien into classes by its own characteristics. Theio is the man of brains who belabors the‘pulpit while ho thrills his audience with his lhagnetisnij which Is of tlio body, but who is relatively weak In thought and spiritual powers. Tliere is the profound reusoner without force, and there is the sapless devotee who is a pattern of useless negative goodness, who is destitute of force of intellect and strength of body. 'Among tho people we see the same- tiling. Some don't want emotional preaching, and some won’t hear any otlier kind. .Some like the minister who is ciiielly literary, and brings his libra­ry with liim Into tlio bulpit. Some pre'- fer.the intellectual preacher, while many will never go a second time to ’ hear tlie preacher wlio makes them think. They can’t stand the unusual exertion. \ .. Men who will not learn to think cannot

please God. They sin and will lose their, souls unless saved at the last by repenting of tli is as of other, sins. God wants the hutul -restored - nud points us to Christ. The world’s salvation is hindered by want of brain and brawn. Wo don’t live right. We lack grit;

Jesus walked all over Palestine. We must take the ears to go a few squares to church. .. • '

Because the people are mentally indo­lent tlie preacher can’t hold them. He can’t compete with tlie Sunday paper imd dime novel. He can’t satisfy minds accus­tomed to liashy entertainments.

And tho preacher often fails for want of physique. What can a nervous wreck in tho pul pit do. I tell you, to serve God well • we must not only he good in tlie common sense of the term, but. we must do all we canto bo strong in mind nnd body,. I preach the gospel of right living. Christ means hy. giene and Intellectual culture Justus much as love nml,faith and holiness. The ideal Christian is a vigorous man whoso nerves are in good^onditiou.tmd who can eat and sleep umf work with equal zest. The to­bacco-clubbed brain cannot bo at its best, and the food clogged man is-not.truly ji man. ; ■ , •

The more we look at this perfect Christ the more we shall discover of Ilis'beauty. There are great discoveries' await lug us here. I used to think Ului severely good and stonily holy;-. But Ilis tenderness and sweetness have grown upon me.

And tlie, result of much looking nt Jesus will" be assimilation. We shall grow moro .and more like Him.

And when He shall appear In all His glory we shall .bo like him, and outshine tlie sun in all his splendor; We shall shine by the splendor of a glorified man­hood. '

’ Neal Dow, " .Tlie editor of the 6 7 AdeyMtc has

had an interview recently with tiie apostle of Prohibition and gives the following racy reminiscencs:

Interesting us tlie interview was upon tlie subject of Prohibition, Gen. Dow him­self was far more interesting tlmn any­thing lie said. As tbe . father of Prohibi­tion, ns a soldier in the lute war, aud its n man of extraordinary mental force and vigor in view of his age, lie is <l person- ality whom any one would be glad to meet. Gen. Dow entered .the cars nt Portland M th .the agility "of a youth returning home from boarding school. In. conversation lie displayed the precision, the force, and the fluency of a man forty years of age, io full health and vigor. Nor wasthcre any­thing, except the whiteness of his hair, which would; suggest a greater age. So impressed witli his youth fulness were we as to say: General, n New York paperrecently said that you were nearly eighty years'of age ; this can hardly be true.” “ No,” said tho General, “ it is not true: I was ciylOyJtco last March.” -Yet lie. con­versed with great vivacity for. two hours, though lie had beeu. speaking every day and sQvend times a day. in tlie political campaign, and was to make his last speech prior to the election on tlmt Saturday even­ing after leaving tlie train.

To the question as to what lie attributed his extraordinary health and activity, Im replied: “ Chiefly to having come of good stock.” 1 IBs ancestors were Qqakevs who lived . temperate, industrious, open-air lives. Ili» father was ninety-five years old when he died, and his. father’s grand­mother one hundred and two when she died. Three tlilugs, lie said, no doubt lmd much to do with*his health and longevity: He had never , used ardent spirits at auy time, he had never touched tobacco, and he Imd made it a rnle never to over-eat. These oft-tohl rules are still the maiii reli­ance, notwithstanding now aiul then we find a hoary-headed, rum-soaked nnd tobnc- co^uturnted sinner standing an apparent contradiction to nature—as iu tlio dark, underground cellars of Cork you may find somo agen crone, reeking In. fi!tli, but nearly a hundred years old.

Knowing thnt Gen. Dow had beeu Incar­cerated iu Libby Prison during the war, we asked hlui if lie happened to meet Chiiplnin M’C’abe. lie remembered "him with much-.pleasure. Then*"whether the siiiferitigs of our people were as", great as .reported Y. lie said that they Were;'thnt the Southerners were poor, and had a hard time to furnish supplies even for their own. people: bu t tlie Northerners would not have been so badly off as.they were if the supplies thut were’ set for them by friends had - not often been appropriated by many of (lie .Southern, officers.

A very interesting story ilpated around duviug tho war about Gen. Morgan, who escaped from -an Ohio penitentiary, and visited Libby. AVo asked Gen. Dow if the story was true. He said it was. General Morgan, finding 'Dow iu Libby Prison, said: “ Gen. Dow* I am gltul to see you in tlie South.” To which Gen. Dow replied: “ Considering tlmt you are in the South, I am glnd to see you, Gen. Morgan ” . Gen. Morgan, lie said, went on to denounce very warmly the manner in which the prison­ers in Libby were treated, saying that lie himself had been well taken care of.

At this point tho General left the. train, leaving -us to reflect- tlmt age .is,;indeed,

There were people enough- left at ( icean Grove on Sunday,'.Sept. 25, to ttiuke up a | inorninand fifteen-hundred. The temperature was delightful and the. chief interest of tlie hour centered in a forty-five minute sermon by the president, Dr. E. II. Stokes. He had only returned to the grounds after a two weeks vacation trip on : tlie preced­ing day, and failing to secure u supply, Was Induced to officiate himself, preach, lug, as lie said, for the. second time since its enlargement, In the great Auditorium, lie explained that this was because he always found a minister present to fill tlie place, and generally lmd so much else on hand' during the height of the season tliat a substitute was always welcome.

Kev. Dr. .Stratton was*present and offer­ed tiie opening prayer, while Kev. Mr. Thornley read the script me lessons.

The sermon was founded • on 1’salm 5)2: 12, Iff, 14. “ The righteous shall flourish like tlie palm tree” Ac. ! This Psalm, he remarked,.after quoting its title and. pur­port, contains three prominent topics— the supremacy of God, tlie brief prosper­ity, but fearful ruin of the ungodly, and the enduring vigor and final success-of the righteous. To tlie latter, , he directed chiefly his remarks in exposition and ap­plication. • •

‘After defining “righteousness” inward and external, he*showed tlie conditions of growth, “planted In the house of the Lord” and a vital union with Christ, by which alone tlie soul .can “ flourish.” Illustra­tions were drawn from trees, and tree- planting, soil and climate, in their rela­tions to fruitfulness, and examples were referred to of the freshness and useful­ness of tlii* aged In the service of' Clirist, and connected with his visible Church.

The Doctor presided at the usual after- noon meeting, reading as the lesson of the occasion Ephesians ff: 8-21—u chapter so full of spiritual unction and power tlmt the lines of thought and experience it suggested filled up an intensely profitable hour. Hardly u verse. or clause in the passage under* consideration but was re­viewed, analyzed and-adapted to the Chris- tiau life of those present; only, in e.very instance, the sublimity of Paul’s concep­tions and the vastiiess of human privilege beyond ordinary attainment was acknowl. edged by all. Tlie service closed with .a .season of earnest prayer for the, restqra- lion to health of Key. G. IL Watson,.D.l)., who was reported to the. meeting as being tn'u state of great- nervous feebleness -and consequent mental despondency.;

Tlie evening, sermon was delivered in tiie Tabernacle by thy editor of- T he ’Kkc.- out), from. 1 Kings. Iff.: 11-12, referring to Elijah at Uoreb, and the marvellous vis­ion which' passed before him, of the whirl- wind,’the earthquake, and fire, and -after, the fire, a *■ still, small voice.”

The condition of things in Isniel, under Ahab's wicked reign, and tlio threats of Jezebel upou the 11 fe of tlie Lord’s prophet, were referred to as teaching in tlie midst Of deepest provocation, tlie forbearance an d m ercy of God. Judgment is his strange work, and he delightetU’in mercy.- With all elements of destruction at ’his ready command, he yet suffers long and is k ind .. His .method is to win and save, not to devastate and destroy. *

Tiie passage was also used in a figura­tive sense to show'the process of conver­sion—the levelling pofier of conviction, tlie heart.sorrow awakened by. guilt, the separation^, sin from the soul, as by re­fining five, mid tlie conscious assurance of. iieart peace, iu the “ still, H in d i voice’- of reconciliation and acceptance through the atonement,' .

At St. 1’mil's, Kev. Mr. Darnell,of Flor­ida, preached ut lO.ffO aV m., and Kev.S. I),

ers in our great Sabbath-school host who will glean one more dollar for missions and get it into_ the treasury at New. York through their pastors before the fflstof. October.?. . ,

I have, an impression which comes almost with tlie authority of revelation, that if we once roach tlie Million Line wc shall never full below it again. Let us reach it this year nnd we shall shirt the next fiscal year utterly free from debt and strong ami courageous enough to lengthen our cords and strengthen pur stakes in every mission field we liave on earth.

Stand Fast.Mu. Enrrojt:—I think it would be

pleasant and interesting to your renders to-, know something of tho influence of Ocean Grove on tlie home churches. Therefore permit me to relate, tlie experience of a sister, as narrated in n conversation wo had just before she left .the Grove last • week. She is a member of the Dutch Re­formed Church, and where the women are nut permitted to speak in public. A few. j years ago at Ocean Grove, she-received the blessing of sauetification, and against all opposition, she has held aloft the banner of,holiness both by viuee and life.

Had the firemen been aware of the fact on Tuesday-evening that we were having a preaching service iti the Tabernacle, they would probably have moderated their enthusiasm a little at the banquet held In the Osborn House.

That they had a good time, however, everybody

•was pleased.During the afternoon experience meet­

Fraternity Among tha Firemen. .Tlie arrival of a new steam fire engine-

on hist Tuesday 'afternoon was tlie occasion of a very, pleasant interchange of civilities between the various couipatiies of Aslrip-y Burk aud Ocean Grove. I t t s within the ineniory of many of iis when rivalry, lios--. tiiliy and ail occasional tight enlivened the life;of a fireman, but that period has hap­pily: passed. ii wav, a rid nriw the b est o f feel - iug seems to prevail. Especially is this the case among tlie organizations of our “ twjn cities by the sea ”

The new cugiue was for the Washington Company of Ocean Grove, aud to celebrate its advent the Wesley, Neptune, Independ­ent and A. Ii. Cook companies of Asbury Park donned their regulation uniforms mid turned out with the most fraternal enthusiasm,; The folio wing is a brief his­tory of .the affair:. ■ '

The visiting firemen, marched to the W ashington' engine; bouse, Olin street, Ocean- Grove, whicli had been made pre­sent ible with; flags imd other decorations. After ri hearty reception tlie entire brigade formed, witli band of. music aud paraded the public; riyeuuea of Grove arid. Park, making the depot their rendezvous. The train bearing the new . machine did’not arrive, until 0 P.M.. when the Asbury Park companies assumed all the charge of mi- loading. T hey also dismissed the team and manned tlie ropes, while the Asbury Park Cornet Band exceeded itself. Torches were ready and the line of march took in Main street from tbe depot to West Grove, through tlie Broadway gates, and over to Main avenue, round Olin street to Beach avenue and back to engiue house. ’

The Asbury Park meu weiit so far as to {mil tlie new engine all, the way and house it in their generosity. Then, after an ex- Change of .congnitulations;. they, were es. cprted b y tiie Washington Company to the dining room of the Osborn IIouso; where the ladies of the Grove, aided bv Airs; Anna Israelproprietor. had furnished an ele- gant banquet. After prayer by Rev.* Mr. Treat, who,'’witii a number of the Co minis, sinners, were preseut. the eutire party paid their respects to the loaded tables, and wouiid up with a round qf good tempered speeches. The Ocean Grove Executive Committee being in sessiou, the -members took a hand in the festivities, .which were closed in proper season.

The .new engsiuv which xvas built at Hudson, N- Y.. is pronounced a perfect and beautiful specimen of ineehauical skill, and will soon‘.be tested a# .to Its prac­tical utility* aiul. power. ‘ , •.

and patrvnis, tor the many expressions of svnqkithy and kind appreciation they have- given me during tlie season of 1880, just now closed; It has been iii- all respects the most remarkable of all preceding year?, for liberal patronage and general giH>d-fee ling.

To employ’is also consideration is due for their uuiforui industry aud polite attention arid faithfulness iu every' depart­ment.

AValkiug the : next niorniug -after - our arrival ou the portico of the Cataract House, I felt niy arm .suddenly seized with an ahnospgiant grip by: some one;, behind, wiiilea iqiul, steru voice cried out, ‘f Tramps are not allowed, to be lounging around here.’1 For a moment I thought I was arrested by nil olllcer of the law, but ou looking round and up, fouud that tbe baud that griped me. so • firmly belonged to the tall, riuiscular, genial, though lately sadlv- strickeii Rev.

Just there on the street, close t<y the curb, iii a buggy, sat his accomplished‘wife, while; .the old mare;

Alegg," black as a native of Africa, and docile because of 'accumulated years, waited patiently f»w her Master's bidding. The greeting was most cordial all around, and I think we were scarcely ever gladder to meet with friends,

“ Come,” said Bro. Osborn, “ you must gather up your traps aud go with us to AATeslev Park." AA’e were not loug lu obey­ing the summons, Mrs. Osborn and Mrs. Stokes taking the buggy iind Bro. Osborn and I w aiknig.. The sky cloudless, the air .bland, it is needless to say -they. bad a delightful ride,;urid, if possible, ice even a more del iglit ful walk. AVe were soon at the bridge, where forthe privilege of pass­ing out of our own country into the Brit­ish domiulon; -were charged twenty cents each.//ITieriVris we ;cros bright Sep­tember sun above iis;: tlie falls, both Amer­ican and Horseshoe, on the Cauadn side, in full, anil the very best view, only .’ tv short /distance to orir left, tlie swirliug andToarn- covered' river away below us, while we, suspended 200 feet iu air, walked to the shores of Queeu Victoria in safety. Tlie scene is scarcely paralleled op earth. How we walked that day! The blood danced through'our veins, tiugled anew.tothe hist extremities of our wearied bodies, aud we seemed almost ten years vouuger for the change., •" Wiien well over, aud answering the usual questions of Custom House officials, we turned to the right, passed down the west bank of the Niagara river, a .quarter of a mile • or so, where w e' reach a forest of grand: old. lririjestic; treesrf~walmitj butter­nut. sugar maples, oak. beech and all the nameless varieties of American wildwood. How glorious they, were ! They st^od in the soft, silent, untainted' September sun- light, the tall seutinels of God. readjr to do His will at a moment’s notice. AVhat a luxury to stand beneath their lordly boughs, take off one’s hat and do them reverence; for they were veuerable when we wore children, and, I had almost said, palsied be the arm that dares to cut them , down! . •

Now we turn leftvyard. on a somewhat beaten road, aud pass ' beueath .a sign twenty feet long, on which is painted jn large, bold letters: - AVesley Park, East Eutrauce." “ ljere,” said Bro. Osborn, after we had walked a hundred yards or so. where there \va? a slight depresSiou in the earth, the sides, risiug somewhat, rill beautifully shaded; ** is the spot where we held our first camp-meeting.” “ Aud a beautiful spot it is,”-was my reply..

8o we walked, and so we talked; talked -all tbe time. Both.talked' at once, because both were full, over full, and talk we must, aud ta lk 'w e did. Talked about camp- /meetings, of course—(Vean Grove. AVesley Park,-’camp.'tneCtiugs in India, Australia. Oregon; camp-meetiugs everywhere.

Then We came tq the new Auditorium, not so large .as ours, but bettter than ours wheu we. were the same age that they are. lt is a splendid ground, aud time, patience, toil aud mouey will make it all its.projectors can desire,

Then wc passed up to* Bro. Osboru’s house. The ladies were there a little before us.- It is-quite large and vqrv

comfortable, but .the zeal of M rs.

Mve. Just opposite this house, b n ; the other side of. the road, is a magnificent property of fifty acres, with spacious and most substantial buildings, which. can be bought for less- than the buildings could, be / erected; nml admirably adapted to the needs of a.train-, ing school on a much more extended scale;- Oil this property her .eyes are fixed, and ■ she lelicvva tliat she will get it for God’s cause, arid I-believe, so . too ! ■

Tbe writer of these notes, with grateful appreciation bf the lines that uave fallen to him in pleasant places ; to wit., three of -tlie later spring and early summer months in the Massachusetts highlands, and five weeks of August and September, amid the privileges and glories of Ocean Grove; desires to say a few things aneut both of those equally admirable yet very unlike localities; /• _ / * ; Z : : -V :;’’'--

To begin with the elevated; rocky region o f tli e * / Old /Bay State J’ w ife iind; I, loving dearly the season of bud und blossom In the country, passed the month o f ' May in the beautiful burg, or village, of Barre, iu AVorcester couuty. A’egetation was uncom­monly forward. The apple orchards were in blossom, arid every, pear tree was in bridal array. God bad sent them fertiliz­ing rains,, aud the innumerable pastures, in which Barre finds her best hold, were already rich iu timothy, nnd'other grasses. The foliage of the grand forest trees upon her panorama of high hills was luxuriant, and the brooks coursing down to empty themselves into tbe rivers . threading through the verdeut• val 1 evs/ were as gen­erous. iu tiieir contributions, as some of your readerSi who helped swell Ahe /eie- gant largess for Improving/the seating ca paoity of your • already ex tens! ye ca nip edifices/ at. Ocean Grove.•• Religion Ian- guisiies in the hill-towns of New. Engluud, but the daines/: pay / fa irlv ; wel 1./' Stock; raisiug re mu ne rates only inod era te ly ; but without the dairies and cattle, in any of the effete old towns would go to grass, instead of grass coming to them. The introduc- tion of the railway system, nearly a half century since, was a positive damage to no inconsiderable number of prosperous vil­lages iu New. England,’the effort being to draw away , from them •their moderate share of traffic, and. give it-to a comparl- tively few mercantile, and manufacturing centres, not always first-rate .cities, but populous/towns, "here growth Is almost entirely due to location at fortunate points'-, or junctions, bn the railroads. The slid- den, unexpected.• acquisition o f railway facilities for the trriusportation of inacbin-. cry, stocks of goixls, etc;, gave au lucentive to*.capitalists’, big aud little, iu divers and sundry rural communities. In Alassachu- setts (as well iis elsewhere), to , chip in and establish plants for manufacturing something or other that would pay to mar­ket. AVith the creation of these mauufae-, tor.ies. in its midst, would come a demand for skilled workmen, and operatives. To feed and-clothe these; there must be stocks of gocnls. tailors, liutc.hers. grot'ers, vtc., aud, hence the population of the little farming toWii would be quadrupled annu­ally, until the village was a city. For In- stance, I reinemtor. AVorcester, Mitss., wlieu I was . a lad, contained only an agri­cultural. people, numbering*; about 1,800, toxfiiy It is a third-rate city. with, more thari'CO.OOO inhabitants!-. ■

I presume that not a few considerable cities in New Jersey,, and ' Pennsylvania, have, from similar causes, grown out of a like- humble beginning, as green railroad towns, originally agricultural. Every such abnormal growth : o f ri town , acts / like a iriaelstrorii, drawing into /its/vortex, more- or less Of the vitality of less fortunate villages, far rind near. Not only .farmers’, sqiis; but farmers’ daughters, are-attracted to them bv enticing offers of; good wages as factory operatives, store, clerks, and artisans.' So, hundreds, nay thousands, of good quiet country homes in New Eng­land, have been abandoned during the last twenty years by a rising generation, and tlie “ old folks ” left behind; to watch the untilled farms, ' and see ' the ir . once tidy houses anii fences rotting away to reriiedi- 1 ess iu i n.' /The once/ prosper bus . vill age, having lost its young life/has become dull aud effete, sales are. slower than molasses hi January, the.churches die out,- and- many worthy pastors, by ■ no fault of their own, must abandon the remnants of - their docks, arid seek iii the cities some other employment,. br to bo - content to exist upon a meagre pittance^ where .'they once enjoyed gratify iug labor and ag o o d liv -H '-. . Just this is the case with numerous beautifully located p.ld towns iu th e . high­lands in -northwesteru Massachusetts. Petersham,is one of them, and I could name many others, / but this screed is already too long for the R e c o r d ' s limits at this time. Burre is pronounced “Barry,'* and was incorporated in 1774, in honor of Col. Barre, who about that time had made ii short but rousing speech iti the British House of Commons, / in denunciation of tlie war against-the American colonies.

Its nearest railway station is. tb ree/in il es away from *. the; centre/- but there• are three / or • four, /churches, and, close at ii arid, nil elegant and/Substantial public library build iug is in progress of completion. It has a newspaper, the (?«- sette, well-established, long ago, ri carefully managed / bank/ anil two 1 ively stage lines.: But lovely as are tlie green hills- and

Ocean Grove is justly regarded as one of the most attractive localities on Jersey’s genial coast. Certainly, it has been remarbably blest in its religious assemblages the. pres­ent season.

AA’e have heard during these camp- meetings In your comuiodlous summer edifices for the worship nf Him who made yonder sparkling sea,/arid the m ul­titudes-of. souls : that have united here, (attracted hither from many- distant plnnees,) to sound His/ praises, and hold communion with . tiieir.- divine Redeemer, the grand truths of our / glorious Gospel enunciated rind iuculcated witli remarka­ble force, and eloquence/ that seemed to, be. inspired; Several of the tiiirty or more really, good seruions were betterv than we ever heard elsewhere/ • a t / Jike' /ga.thCfirigs.

He bad, beside grace' and good coinmoii sense, a/ good voice, which was trained to sing grandly, and tlie eyorcise o f these three blessings made him very successful as a leader. But /disease; with ihcreased tears came, and heart weakness compelled him the hist two years of his life to desist almost entirely from any work in the church. He always; however, made.au effort to Help/In the sacrrimental /service even up to the/tim e of his fatal illness., As a member of church lie was genial and loved; as un ofilciid he; was efficient and retiring, arid the loss that tho church lms sustained in his-departure is one that shrill be felt until m ost bf those who knew him shall liave met him in glory.

. Dr. Senderllng was ri kind husband arid; father. His house was ever open to the preacher of the gospel, and all who visit- ed It were impressed with his profound respect for his pastor, ami for all those who had.held-that relntiori to him.

About three months before his decease he felt, that tlie time of his departure was ; riot fur off. He remained in his room

[ during those, months awaiting the mes- • seriger from his Lord. During that time | lie cared' only to talk on salvation and heaven. . Having his affairs all settled up, he took his departure from earthly things even when his vision was strong enough to gaze upon them. His dying chariiber was that of the good man. -It was a bene­diction to listen to his words' of victory,

, wliero the world- thinks only of defeat. Eagerly as a son long away from home

j looks for the house of his loved parents as lie travels thitherward, did lie look for the house not with hands; , As the days . rolled on it seemed that to his waiting soul no. sound would be more gladsome than thrit of the chariot to conduct him to heaven. :.-//,/ ///:/ "-/•/• /- ■./ .//--./ / • "■

Dr. Senderling. was a visitor of Ocean ’ Grove' for ri number of years, and for no place on earth had he a higher apprecia­tion. Its Sabbath was to him a fortaste of the Sabbath; earth will liave when Jesus shrill have universal empire.

Beside the offices he held in Kensington Church, lie was one of the trustees of the M. E. Home, In. which institution he took great interest, as his bequest of $1,000. to it showed. . " * ■ ; / • '• . */ His fuuernl was held in Kensington M ., E. Cliurcli, of which he has been so long a member. Arid the great number that ’ at- :■ tended It showed the very high esteem in which he was held, both by the church and community.

. Eev., M. Z. Senderling; M. D, .Rev; AL ZSenilerling, AL ,D.v.was born

Jari/; 20, 1S20, / and d led in Philad el ph i a, Alay 5,1 SS0. Forty-two, years of his life were spent iu the service of the Lord. He was sixty-six years of ago at his death, and had been a member of the Alethodist Episcopal Church almost since 1844. He was uot, :\s may be seen from dates already giveu,'converted in fits cbildhocKl. '--It \vas riot until the age- of 24 that;, b e :gave his lieart to G cid, but d ur Ing the many years t b eren f ier lie was. ri tho rough Chri stian. ;

By .profession he was a physician.; and bad a large practice. He was. u graduate of both/schools-of medicine, but practiced houuvopatliy chiefiy.. “ •

Like all those whose hearts are atlame with the love of Jesus, ho.was not content with being happy in God himself, ‘but sought to lead others to enjoy the same •blessedness. Those who listeued to his exhortatious saw in- him a fit person for the miuistrv, imd he was early licensed as a local preacher, and in li?G2 he was or- dalued deiicon'by Bishop Morris, und elder by Bishop Janes in 1808. 1 le was evident­ly suited to the practice , of medicine, but it appeared equally d ear from bis tenuous arid the.iiiauuer of their delivery, that if he had devoted his time'to the ministry he would have made in tho regular ranks, a very- superior 'preacher of Jesus. As a local minister he was always highly appre­ciated^ Of Iveusiiigton Ciui|vh, iu which most of his .years, as a church• member were speut, lie was also a class leader. To tlie office he- was appointed by Rev. P.

A Constitutional Remedy, not one Merely Local.The trouble with consumptives is that

tlie ailment is generally supposed to be in the thrdat, rind so/ under the iiripression that it is nothing very serious, is negtected until too late. Tubercles are deposited in tlie lungs earlier than many people think. Give speedy attention to this.. There/is a. stage at which consumption is not a mere­ly local disease; it is constitutional. True, it is the lungs that are specially “ consum­ed/’ But the consumptive patient is ail­ing all-over and needs to be vitalized all over if he would be well.

The case.of M r . Turner, an English .gen­tleman who went all • the way frorii his liouie in Colorado to be cured, is in this connection deeply interesting. .-The aii- of Colorado aviis too stimulating for a man whose right lung was a depository o f : tubercles. He became worse and worse. But he read about Compound Oxygen and procured a Home Treatment; ./r At once there , was a marvelous improveriient/ Mr. Turner -slept better; arid his appetite and digestion were / altogether renewed/ In due c'burse liis lungs became quite free froin tubercles. Sometime after wards he wrote: ; ''. “And this recovery has proved perma­nent. Twelve months have passed and I • .ain better than I was then. Though pros-/ trated during a long summer by ;the great arid continuous heat—having beep always affected* by a high temperature—there was no return of any s}*mptoms of the old malady, arid to-day I regard /myself, and am regarded by. my friends, as cured.

“Hence, I believe. Componnd. Oxygen is all that you claim for It, arid have pleas- ure In testiy i ng wh tit great things it has done for ine.“. . ; V ::/-/■ /.: '/ '// /"/'•//;.

I f Mr/ Turner’s case were the only one on record it would be a great encourage­ment to consumption. Happily there are hundreds' of - other arid / similar victories . wrought by Compound Oxygen.

Sin t?~*I see in your issue of September 20th that your correspondent from Lenox, Moss;, supposes tlmt real estate, is relative* ly higher in 1-Lenox than in any other part of the United States, because it rose from,

■ say $100, to $10,000 per aero iu fifteen yeurs. In tlds supposition he is in error. Lund nt Ocean Grove, X. J.. which about tifteen years ago cost from $2 to .$0 per acre, cannot now be bought for less, than •f50,000 per acre. This is true of the whole ocean front, while for three-fourths of a

. mile on Wesley Lake it is. worth not less than $J30,000 per acre. One woule have to skirmish in the outskirts some time to find land worth no more than £10,000 Per acre. One would naturally suppose thut millionaires for fancy.plots in fancy places would bid up land to the highest figure, but that is not the fact. Poor Methodists for parcels ou which to build shanties to attend camp-meeting outbid fashion more than four-fold. I may add that the above prices aro over and above a perpetunl ground rent of 7 per cent, on the oridnal cost. . J . Iv. l i .
