last Sunday evening, Rev T. B. Coupland
preached an able and practical gertuon on
Joseph's injunction to his brethren : "See
that ye fall not out by the way," His re-
marks were very pointed and timely, and
will lead, no doubt, to much self exeuaina-
tion, and rainy who hitherto thought
themselves far advanced in the narrow way
will be led to use the Publican's prayer
and begin again. This sermon was follow-
ed on Sunday last by another on "Casting
out the beam," in which the words of the
preacher were equally pungent. The
iermoas here no doubt been prompted by
the strained relationship that hi a existed
for some time among sundry denial's and
others in the church. But as that diffi.
witty has been got over by the dexterous
use of a little whitewasn diluted with soft
soap, and that too without the aid of
foreigners, it is expected, in view of recent
developments in the thole earner, that the
next sermon will be on the subject of
Jacob's supplanting his brother Esau. By
