I fear you have overvalued the extent of my •feoble work amongst you, yet you have only pictured my most ear- liest , desires: When it pleased God the linty Ghost to call seal send' me to ties put Lion Ot the " Lords Vineyard," I must confess; t keenly felt my un- worthiness of such a high, holy and responsible charge; still like the youth of old, " I conferred not with flesh and blood," but carne to " feed the sheep which the Holy Spirit would place me over.

Truly our seas have been silvery. with scar- cely a ripple, May they always re- main the same. But what changes have talion place in' the congregation• since its inception 1. Many of the faces first familiar to us in worship have disap- peared. Some have removed to other parts of the world, and some, 'alas 1 have become "weary and faint" "by.the way," • but, thank God, new faces are continually appearing amongst us, and I am sure you will' join.withstein of - goring awarnr welcome to all who may wish to meet, and worship with us in our dear little Bethel. It is needless for me to assure you that my unceasing airn in. our relationship, is. .neither empty show nor vain popularity, but your. spiritual welfare, not simply the building•up of ,a'visiblo body, but a real quickening and deepening of godly love and holy living in each member of the congregation. 1. must confess that. sometimes • in my ardorous labors, I feel ars inclination to discouragementarid desponder>,cy, caused by the coTLvietion that I''am doing but very little iii the battlo'againsl;'Satan, sin and death, but' from the fact of 'being made the reci-. piont of this very beautiful; costly and most' ntsefal article for household com- :fort at your hands.

And farther; 1x j ssuro you that the iiilent language contained in this event, Ismoreto` mo than, earthly treasures, yea, it is sweeter to lay soul than • the " silvery' tones of an anon lyre."
