He has revealed H!n will, He forniahes ns with the means of grace, He ie rich in mercy, will abun dantly pardon, hears 'sod answers prayer, draws, guides sod trains os, and eaves the baptised believer in the Lord Jesus Christ with an ever lasting salvation. But as regards man for he ie many beaded ; as many men aa many minds ie ao old saw, and wo daily experience the troth of it. Wo give the last instance of our utter and entire inability to reader - satisfaction. Several of our friends when they learnt that the paper did not pay ex pense* advised us to charge for all advertisements, notices, etc., irre spective of pet sons and objects. We did not like to do it. We tried to serve the church aad to show oar good will to tke ministry and tke laity to the beet of our ability. Wo believe too with onr whole heart that it is more blessed \f> give than to re ceive, and we therefore declined ae long as wo alone were responsible Bnt now others have become respot) sible and will hare to bear the Iota, if the paper does not sustain itself; it has booome our duty to those kind brethren, and honesty demands that we to the beet of our ability Uses a the risk; in other words, it becomes os to nse every effort to make the paper self-sustaining; we therefore charge for all advertisements. Several have writea to os and ex pressed their approval. One brother even says that $5 far a Synodical notice Is not enough. He may be right. It is really but little, as fig ures will show. The Synod of Geor gia has 1000 members, the Synodical notice therefore ie only haH a cent for eaoh member. The Synod of SL Carolina has 4500 members, tke notice therefore Is but one ninth of a cent for each member This Is Soft dent to prove that it really la but a nominal thing to the Synods, while in the other hand it is a great deal to ue, for $5 pay for two and a half delinquent subscribers a whole year, or for the printing of 170 paper*. The $5 benefit us much, sad none are torero. >We moreover are de termined if the Visitor is self-sus taining this year to publish all churchly notices free next year. ■ We never even dreamt that aay would object to this, but to onr utter astonishment and no little vexation, we are mistaken. A good brother writes: 1 am sorry that you charge for Synodical notices. Nq$ that you bad gross neglect or lack of «*> oj^r*u«n on tke part of ths ministers of our church, “who ate much benefited by the influence of the paper * 1 These and other aaaoyaaeas would try even the patteuee of a Job.

Paal’i Protracted Meeting. Tbs good old days of “long time ago” often bring to the mind of our older minister* sweet remembrances of precious season* of grace, pro treated sometimes for week* and months, with great results for good. Tbs remembrance Is grateful to *11 participant*, both minister* and lsy- Tboussnd* live in ths ebnroh now whose testimony is in favor of protracted meetings. They point to soon soch meeting and say, “there 1 wagfoo*verted," nod upon ths 8a vtour’s rule, by their fruit* ye *haU kmate them, no man dare impeach their testimony. But most of these witnesses are grey headed, many fee ble, and all paasing away. Their ranks are not filling up, because protracted meeting* are neglected, discontinued, and in mauy instances opposed. Yes, opposed by ministers of the gospel who themselves were ths subjects of protracted meetings la tbsir religious experience, sod, opposed tooj I greatly fear, by mauy who ought to be subjects of a pro traded meeting in a happy personal conversion. Frequently we hear those opposer* of what they denominate “JTrtf Meaeureef ia a tone of con tempt, aey, “there is no authority for the protracted meeting in the Bible." In controversion of this er roneoua, hot very common impres- moo, prevalent in our day, let us calmly look at only one record. Turn with me to chapter 13 of Acts, ami begin to read at verse 14. Here you find Paul and Barnabas at Antioch in Pisidis, preaching, by invitation, in the Synagogue. A skeleton of Paul* sermon is given, and also the eflect that its plainness and simplicity produced. Now when we come to verse 42, let ns pause for a time. Here we are told that the Jews left the place of worship, and the Geatitoe bed so interview with tke preachers. The wsy of salvation waa made ao broad by Paul that the Geotile* understood themselves to be included. They were rejoiced at such liberality, mad sought to have a more positive declaration of what they bat dimly apprehended. They there fore sought n repetition of Paul's gracious words, not “the meat Sab a religion* i the opposition, an uncommon th iog «l nwrtiug, on * who«c opposite* U i«,Z1* ■ foot I, vory evident , or Umpk», Ww r.
