Who can- not, under the power of the Holy Ghost, bring two souls to God in three years? .As so many will bring hundreds' and thousands to God, most of you hnve to bring only one soul to God, and the gos- pel campaign for this continent will be ended. If you cannot bring one soul to God, or two souls, or three souls, in three years aro no Christi n ad de- , you c a a serve yourself to be shut out of heaven. The religions pessimists of thie court- try, are all the thne depleting the ob• staoles as so great and our forces as so small that we half of the time feel that we are attempting an impossibility. Take out of your prayers and preaching some of your stuffing of groans and put in something of acolamation and triumph, and the United States will be gospelized, and the United States be gospelized America will be goepelized,and, Anlerioa gospelized, we will take Asia from the Paellio beach and Europe from the At. land° beach, and not far from now the lost star we live on will take its plaoe among the constellations that never fell. Let the more than 21,000,000. communi- cants, aa they lift the sacramental cup to their lips, take oath that they will not rest until tbe other 40,000,000 are Rived. The opportenities are all saddled and bridled. When are the men and women to guide them? "I will deliver thee e,000 horses if thou he able to set riders upon them." Wbat two men can do for good or evil is impressed upon xne by the fact that, two Sootehmen going to California, eaoh took something that would remind him ot his native country. The one took a thistle, the na- emblem of Scotland. The other tioual em took a ease ot bees, years went by and the work of the two Sootchmen is widely seen. The curse of the Paolflo slope is the thistle and the blessing of the Pacific slope is the honey found everyvshere in woods and fields.. In your life are you re- sponsible for honey or thistles, and. if one man can do so much gond and an- otner so much evil, how much could be done for the ransom of thie tenantry by 21,00,000 people all consecrated? Tbe. cavalry suggests seed. Wben once the reins are gathered Into the hands of the soldiery horseman and the spurs are struck into the flanks, you bear the rabaplan of the hoofs. "Velocity' is the word that describes the movement-ao- eration, inoentum-and hat we celmw want in getting into the kingdom of God is oelebrlty. You see, tho years are so swift, and the days nre so swift, and the hours are so swift, and the minutes are so swift, we need to he swift. For lack of this appropriate seed many do not get into heaven at all. Here we are in the first Sabbath of the year. Did youi ever know a twelfth month quicker to be gone? The goldenrod of one autumn speaks to the goldenrod of the next-, au- tumn, aud the crocus of one springtime to the oreous of another epringthne, and the snowbanks of adjoining years almost rench each other in unbroken curve. We are in too much burry about most things. Business3nen in too much burry rush into speoulatione that ruin them and ruin others. People move from place to place in too great haste. and they wear out their nerves and weaken the beart's action. But the only thing in which they are afraid of being hasty is the matter of the soul's salvation. Yet dld any one ever get damaged by ton quick pardon or repentance or too quick pardon or too quick emancipations? The Bible recent mends tardiness, delibera- tion and snaillike moSernent in tiorne things, as when it enjoins us to be slow to speak and slow to wrath and slow to do evil, but it tells us, "The king" busi- neas requireth hastag and that our days are a the flight of a weaver's shut- "Escape for thy life. tle. and ejaonlates: "E Look not behind thee; nether stay thou in all the plain."Other cavalry troops may fall back, but mounted years neverThe retreat. Tbey are always going ahead, not on an easy canter, but at full run. Other regiments hear the oommand of "Halt!" and pitch their tents for the night. The regiments of the years never hear the command of "Halt!" and never pitch tent for the night. The century leads on its troop of 1.00 years, and the year leads on its troop of 865 days, and the day leads on its troop of 24 hours, and the hour leads on its troop of 60 Minutes, and all are dashing out of sight. Perhaps there are two yeare in wbich we are most interested -our first• and our last. Held up in our mother's arms we watched the flight of th first. With wondering eyes we all watch the coming of the last. The name of that advancing year we cannot call. It may be in the nineties of this century, it ns may be in the tem or twenties or thirties of the next century, but it is coming at full gallop. With what mood, will we meet it? In jocosity, as did Thonhas Hood in his last moment, saying, "I am dy-opening • ing out of oharity to the undettaker,who wishes to earns a lively Hood." , Or in- fear, as did Thomas' Paine, saying in his1 last moment, "0h., how I dread this mysterious leap • in the dark" or in boastfuluese, as did Vespasian, saying in bis last moment; "Ah, methinks I an) becoming a god." Or in frivolity, as die Demonax, he infidel philosopher, saying in eel lase moment, "You may go home; the show is eeer." Or consoienee striken, as did Charles IX of France, saying in his last moment: "Nurse, nurse!. What murder! What bloodI" Or shall we rneet it in gladness of Christian hope, like that of Julius Charles Hare, who said in his last moment, "Dpward,upwardl" or like that of Richard Baxter in his last moment saying,"Alnseat well." Or like that of Mertin of Tours, saying in his last • moment, "I go to Abraham's bosom.", Or like that of polished Addle eon, who said in his last motnent, "See hat ease .a. Christian, .oan die." or like that of George WhItefleld, eveo felt that he had said all Shat he could of Cbrist, 'declaring in his last moment, "I shall die silent." Or like that, a Mee. Schimmelpennioh, who said in her last moment: ' "Do you not hear' the voices!' And the children's are the loudest." Or like thee nf Dragonnattl, saying in his last moment: "Stand aside! I see teY father and mother coming to kies nit" Or as did the eying girl, who having a few evenings befere sat on a bench in a . Imudon mission, was seen to have tears of oontrition rolling • down her cheek, anti who, departing from the room, had put in her eand by a Christian woman a Bible, with the passage mark -ed, "The mood of Jostle Christ cleanseth from all sin." Though having promised to be at ,ee next meeting, she did not come. ilet Christian woman who gave her Lae Riegel Wag visiting the hospital, and tile ntirSs said to her: "I vvisb you had been here a litttle while ago.

If it were possi- ble for the centuries to take the speed of the peeve and the years the speed of the days, and the days the speed of the hours, the Id d harm The y con o us no . shorter our life the longer our heaven.
