The Christian Leader a a late date
nontains much instructive and edifying
matter, The Rev. John T. Falside com-
Municates a pleasant sketch of Farkdale-
rouir in its religious aspects, we
aubjoin. He gives to his centribetion
the title of The Moorland Sabbath in
Caritiche Country" :—
.
To the ordinary tautist familiar with
the Highlands the wilds of the south of
Scotland are unknown. With the -ex-
ception of a few sportemen who come in
autunm scarcely any stranger over re-
pairs to these parts. This tact may be
auffieiently accounted for- by the nature
of the locality, which presents very few
of those grand and atriking feature e that
excite the admiration of travellers in the
north. There is, indeed. little to induce
eeople to travel in these moorland dis-
tricts,there being no railways or coachea
ar any other provision for the conveni- -
mice and comfort of travellers. And yet
the district hasits own attractions, and
net desttute of interest of various
kinds. With this locality are associated
the names of Scott,of Hogg and Carlyle,
and their spirit still prevades it and
iiake it classic ground. Besides, he
who is a lover of mountain scenery, and
who wishes to be alone with nature in
her solitary and rugged t)grandeur, will
find a genial retreat in the far stretching
Wilds (A Dumfriesshire, If he is weary
of the ceaseless turmoil of the city he.
will find a "lodge in this vast wilder-
ness,- :tad will enjoy all the delicious-
ness of profound reposee. He may wan-
der for days over the hills and through
the glens without geeing a sol tary
innuan being except the shepherds, who
are alraoat the only inhabitants. Here
the business of the world has stopped;
the time spent in thia region looks like a
pause in human life. Here a man may,
in all truth, become xpectator ,,b eat a,
tend view with a quiet and philosophical
interest the feverish magoings of the
World.
It may very readily be stipposea,
therefore. that in these mountain soli-
tudes one day will differ very <little from
anather„-and that a Sabbath will Yery
thuch resemble an ordinary week day.
And yet there is. a difference. But it is
tnte of degree and not of kind. On. the
§-abbatir day the stillness of the week
becomes deeper and more general; the
pause in life Incomes more profound;
the sober air that revades all things
deepens iuto a kind of- natural sanctity.
The only sounds that reach the ear are
the gentle ripple of the mountain stream,
the occasional barking of a sheep dog, or
the distant screeching of some scared
vaildfowl in the solitary glen. At cer-
tain seasons of the year, indeed, the
1),Orltath is as busy a day as any other.
This is the ca,se during the lambing sea-
aon, and at those times when severe
*law storms are likely to prove destruc-
tive to sheep. But taking one Sabbath
teth another there is little work done,
4id the day may well he described as a
flay of rest There is a patriarchal
diameter about it leading one to think
about Abraham, Isaac and Jacob tend -
hag their sheep in the wilderness, and.
filo-Mine close communion with God.
only primitive but unseemly. Yet there
are many. considerations which recom-
mend its continuance. The money offer-
ings of the people are as much an act' of
Worship as praying or singing; and as
they are _taken while the congregation is
still assembled, they are to be regarded
as a necessary part of the religious Ser-
vices.
Sometimes the work of the Sabbath ie
varied and enlivened by religious ser-
vices in the shepherd's houses in the
afternoon. These "kitchen meetinegs,
as they are called,are much appreciated
the houses being generally filled with
men, women and children. In the win
ter months, however, these -meetings are
often held at great inconvenience, onj ac
count of the almost impassable state of
the hills. Many who attend them are
in the habit of carrying a lanterns, but
notwithstanding the help thus afforde(
they sometithes find themselves in un
comfortable situations, especially i
sheep drains or treacherous pools are ii
the way.
The remaining portimi of the day i
usually spent in.' reading either the
Scriptures or old religiat s literature. In

Public, warship is,. of course, the most
reminent feature of a moorland Sab-
ath. As the services on that day tare
eh' they are generally well attended-,
litany ot the people come to church at
coasiderable inconvenience and discora-
fort to. themselves. This is more es-
pecially the case- with the shepherds,
wally of whom travel six or eight miles
ret the depth if winter when rain, or
stow, or piercing winds are contending
against them, Their example in this re -
est puts to shame many others who
are detereed from going a quarter of a
Odle to their place of worship on ac-
count of a slight shower. Long before
Cie hour of worship you may see men,
women and children, coming in all dire°,
eons. over the hills and forming a ro-
maatic and interesting spectacle. Very
aten both in summer and winter the
people, especially the women, go Iatre-
tooted Part of the way„ carrying their
floats and stockings as a preventive of
hlistering and wetting. The people are
generally at the church half an hourcs
before the services commence, and the
men form themselves int; groups and
spend this time in smoking and diserase
nag the state of the weather. The ap-
pearance of the congregation is homely
alnd unique. Two-thirds of it consist
of shepherds with their wives and. fam-
ilies, dressed in homely but substantial
clothiag, and presenting a, rosy and
cheerful appearance. One noticeable
feature in these congregations is the
comparative absence of young men and
women. Work being scarce in their
native place they are compelled to go
elsewhere for employment. Besides the
shepherd's staff and his plaid, which is
either folded around him or lying across
the seat, there is his dog, which forms: a
neeessary part of a moorland congrega-
tion. The dogs generally lie quietly at
their masters' feet, although it some-
Cmhappens, especially during the
tinging, that they will give a loud yelp,
but without excitiug the least notioe on
the part of the congregation. !Droll
storiee are told about these dogs._i, It has
sometimes happened that befehe the
minister comes to the church a dog has
Ltseended the pulpit stairs, placed its
fore paws on the cushions, and after sur-
veying the congregation with philosoph-
iced, calmness, las quietly walked down
apparently satisfied with the result of
its examination.
The service.s are such as would satiefy
the most extreme advocate or" purity
af warship." Nothing is introduced
whieh seems to be a departure from the
npirit or the cuatothe of primitive times.
Vet they- are all the more impressive on
account of their simplicity. The sing-
ing, which usually consists of old tunes,
ts homely bet earnest, welling up from
the heart, and expressive of true thanks-
giving and praise. The sermons are
considerably changed front what they
cee•I to be. At one time they were
enietly doctrinal, now they are to a
great extent, practical and even evangel-
tetic in the toae. A "read " sermon

and the worth of the sermon was estim-
