conscience aud poesessed his soul in
patience while they beset ltim with
their wiles and aecusations. "He looked
on the field of danger with the eye of
an eagle and walked over it with the
heart of a lion." His enemiee firet
sought to draw him into the eoentry
under pretense of counsel. Failing na
their ondeavons to drive Nehemiah from
his work they further atteMpted to
aseribe evil motives to his Work. Wick-
ed reports were propagated. They tried
to intimidate him and urged luta to
seek refuge in the temple. Nehemialetad
to hear the gossip but refused to
flee from it or give it attention.. He
had, only denied that melt things were
true, but said they were reperted witb-
out uathoriey. no was better known at
Court than to be thus euspecteih He
would not omit duty merely for fear
hie motives should be misconstrued, but
kept a good .conecience and trusted God
to protect his good name. Every ef-
fort to draw him may from duty only
quickened bini to greater diligengte.
If. Brought defeat to the enemies of
Judab. It was the cessation of the
work that Nehemiah's enemies aimed at.
They would get him to go anywhere
only so he loft hie work. They tried
four times to prevent the tompletion
of Nehemiah's work. His integrity and
innocence presaved him, while his ene-
mies suffered the humiliatien of those
who boast of their power and then feet
themselves completely defeated by the
poople whose might they had despised.
It was a cruel thrust nt Nehemiah to
cause Min of seeking position for hint -
self and not the honor of God, and Ids
own, exaltation more than the prosper-
ity of Zion. Nehemiah commended the
whole ease to the direction of God. He
wan not overcome by the trestebery, in-
gratitude or pertervernoss of those
around him. Prayer WAS Nehemiah's
oommonest resource and God his con -
stout helper. Nehemiah considered his
relation to God, his obligation to him,
his expectation 'from him and the in-
terest Nettie' h God himself had in the
whole. plan before him. As lee WAS doing
God's work under special guidance he
expected to to kept in safety without
neglectieg his week to save his- life.
False brethren were the severest trial
Neltemiab. The rage of hie prose -
enters though terrible was not as dan-
gerous as their professed friendehip and
the false advice of hie countrymete
Having pure Motives and a clean heart
enabled Nehemiah to act and speak
in a way to bring hint complete triumph
over all artifice, intimidation ridicule
and deceit from hie enemies. They de -
spaced of every doing the Jews the
mischief they had designed against
them. This Was the hour of- Israel's
triumph and the humiliation of her ene-
mies. IsTehemian attained the full vic-
tory of finishing the fall &round Jerus-
alem. Victory gained under such diffi-
culties served to establish confidence
and faith aniong the people who had
been well-nigh defeated. T. 11.. A,

tail trade is also brisk and business is
