Your correspondent eat, four questions, 1st:Wiser° is the Christian minis. ter, journalist or politician but is trusting to an arm of flab ? 2nd, Where is the Christian but is looking for the bauble reputation and the honor that comes from the world 3rd, Why is the world so often appealed to for aid to build churches, eto.? .tth, How is it that Mr. Professor is on hand at card parties, Sze. Your correspondent has got the subject Mixed up, Ile loos for what there should be, but ie not. He knows enough to (mete the passage, "Without faith it Is import. eible to please God," but does not know enough, evidently, to propose, as a oolution. to the difficulty, that faith is exceedingly rare, and as the world goes on reaching nearer and nearer its end, faith will be harder to be found than ever, until at last we reach that point intimated by our ,Saviour, when he says "When the Son of Man cometh shall he find !kith on the earth?" In other words, will there be such a thing as faith to be found anywhere? " Defender,"..hoWev.er,: adminis- ters a scathing rebuke to the so called "churches" in„our midst. The appealing to the world .for money to build; the seeking out of the world for a geed voice with which to draw a crowd to swell the congregations and collections.; the appealing to the world for money to lauy the organ, or more often to pay one•quarter of the price, and go in 'debt for the balance, trusting to the chapter of acei. dents to pay for it. What a travesty on re. ligion ! What a disgrace, foul beyond words, to the name of Christ ! Can one wonder the world jeers, tor people of "Defender's" stamp aro not slow to'notice inconsistencies. The Bi- ble has a plain, unmistakeable name for swill conduct. We find it in James 4.4, "Ye adal- terers and adulteresses, kno* yo not tim friend. ship of the world is ,enmity with hod? Who. louver, thereforeovill be a friend of the world is the oneray. of God,". Mark it well y- 01, liS, ministers, leaders of the flolk, "Whosoever will be a friend of the teorld is tln tom?/ God." Whit are thee bazaars, 'teh nisetings, Concerts, socials, and in some cases, theatri- cals, in the shape of tableaux vivants, but a seeking from the devil the means to carry on God's work. Can we wonder there is so little life in our raidst, and so much failure and indifference ? Ie God,going to own and bloom such work? What a sign of the last times, "Because thou :art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hoti I will spue thee' out of my mouth. Because thou sayeat 1 am rich, and • increased in goods, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art wretched, and sairassonamsaa, • miserable, and poor,i and blind and naked," What a warning this should be to any who 'will tab heed. Having departed. from, the teaohing and guidance of God's word, see where Christendom has brought itself. The reproach, the shame, the brand of "adulterers and adulteresees" is placed thereupon. Your oheclient, servant, Olintoo, Sept. 20, • TAMIL WW1 Se110014 MIST= MEETING. 0•••••••• A special meeting of the High School Boar was held in the Council Room on Thursday evening. Present the chairme,0„ and Messrs. Hodgins, Raoey and Robson. Mr. Racey'e account, amounting to $1.97, was ordered to be paid.
