We deeply sympathize with all those
ambassadors of the "Prince of Peace''
who are called upon to act as war
chaplains. The preparations and
training for cxpertne-s in human,
butchery that the man of* Cod, if In* Ik*
such, and have any conscience, must
feel sadly out of place, amid the din of
the camp and the strains of martial
music, so dillbrent from the sons; o'
the angels at the birth of Him who
came not to destroy men's lives, but to
save them, and so very diderent from
the soft, sweet music of the redeemed
in Heaven. When he looks upon the
deep-mouthed cannon ami the glitterilia:
bayonet, and remembers the pur
pose for which they arc made, and
then remembers the words of Jesus.
"J'ut I say unto you that ye resist not
evil; hut if a man smite thee on one
cheek, turn to him the other also."
When in his morning devotion he
prays "deliver us from evil," how his
faith must falter when lie remembers
that he has voluntarily put himself in
the way of evil. When he plays
"Thy kingdom come," lie sees very
much more evidence of the reign of
Satan than of God. When he prays
"Thy will be done on earth, even as it
is done in heaven," he sees nuu-h more
evidence around him t'?at the will of
Satan is being done on earth than the'
will of the Lord. When he* prays
"forgive us our tre.spjis.-es, even as we
forgive those who trespass against us,"
he knows that he is asking God to take
vengeance on him and tho?e with
? i i._ wlmf
Wiiuui ue is iiwuvMiuu,
lie and they are trying to do to those
whom they call their enemies. When
an engagement is pending, and lie
prays the Lord to direct their missiles
to the hearts and heads of their enemies,
he knows that he is praying to
a Clod who has said "thou shalt not
kill," and in the name of a Saviour
who lias said, "love your enemies.'' If
he praps, "Lord, be merciful to those
*-with whom 1 am associated, hut help
us to inflict swift and speedy vengeance
on those who are arrayed
against us," and then rem em hers that
Jesus has taught, "Blessed are the
merciful, for they shall obtain mercy,"
and remembers also that 1 lie liible, a
copy of which is in his hand, or in his
pocket, teaches that "God hath made
of one blood all the nations of tho
earth," it may awaken doubts in his
mind whether God will hear and answer
his prayer against his brothers, or
not. And then possibly tho Holy
Spirit may bring to his recollection the
truth that "whatsoever is not of Jai/Jt,
is sin." If the army with which he
is associated should send out a foraging
party, and he should be called upon to
pray for their success, and then re.
members that the God to whom he is
praying has said, "Thou shalt not
steal," and "Thou shalt not covet anytlii
?rr (ltnT i< MlV lll'i *hboi>'s." it I) lilt'
es him in an exceedingly embarrassing
position. If liis military commander
sends out a squad of men to cut oil' the
enemy's supply of food and water, and
he is called upon to pray for their success,
how can he do so in ihe face <God's
positive command, "If thy enemy
hunger, feed him ; if ho thirst,
give him drink." Poor man; how
pitiable is his lot.
If a soldier lias conscientious convictions
aliout obeying the orders (f
his otllcors which require him to kill
and rob his fellow-men for whom
Christ died, and comes to the chaplain
for advice as to what he must do under
the circumstances* the chaplain dare
not read from the Bible the advice
which John the Baptist gave the soldiers
who came to him : '''Do violence
to no man," for that would be
teaching them insubordination to tlieir
military ofiicers, and render them perfectly
worthless as soldiers.
If he is called upon to administer
spiritual comfort to sick, or wounded*
or dying soldier, although i lu* soldier
at the time of his enlistment and sub"
sequently may have been taught to believe
that to die tor his country was a
sure passport to heaven, the chaplain
has to dissipate all such ideas from his
mind, and teach him that salvation is
not of works, hut is God's free </i/t to
inau through "repentance toward God
and faith toward our Lord Jesus
Christ."
Take it altogether, we think ii there
is any one in heathen or Christian
countries who needs the sympathy and
prayers of God's children, it is the war
chaplain. He is professing allegiance
to two authorities so wide apart in
their spirit and methods, that he cannot
possibly obey one without disobey ng
the other, lie is trying to serve
wo matteis, und w hat pleases one,displeases
the oilier. The Loid grant

l)r. Cookumn states it: "What is
unction ? - Is it pathos, or eloquence,
or psychological power, or menta]
force? T apprehend it is not these,
hough it may consist in part of one or
all of them. Unction is that subtile,
mysterious, unaccountable, irresistible
influence that proseeds from the Spirit
to the individual filled with the Spirit
?that seals instruction upon the heart
and conscience of the person receiving
it; so that the unction tends to render
a man powerful and glorious in his life
and history. That is miction. That
which sounds pleasant may not be
unction; but that which, however
feebly expressed, makes an impression
on your memory, ami develops, until
at length it is a part of votir existence,
and becomes a great power,?this
is unction. Lork give us more of that

Shall each country protect itself
from the other by lines of fortilicai
lions, dotted by custom houses, curej
fully watehed by smugglers, and ex!
neiid their resources for artnicu and
, ves-els of war? Shall wc duplicate canals
on our borders at every natural
I obstacle to commerce because we can
not agree for their common use? Shall
we, iiko nmnciKiiy iiei^uuors, uuuu a
mad-lane between lis, because we can
I not agree to join onr fences? One or
II lie otiier of these lines of public policy
will very soon have to be adopted,
or, like the ancient English and
I Scotch,- we will be in a slate of continual
controversy or warfare with each
ol her. / prejer a Aind and gener'
; policy to Canada rather than
one of retaliation and Jorcc. Nor
will mere commercial arrangements, in
their nature temporary, like the recip!
rocity treaty of 1854 and of 1871, liable
to be set aside by the shifting exigencies
of the political situation meet or
solve the problem we have before us.
They only tend to emphasize our sep"
a rat ion.
'/he way to union with Canada is
not by hostile legislation, not
acts oj retaliation, but by Jriendly
''overtures. This union is one of the
events that must inevitably come in
the future; it will come by the logic Of
the situation, and no politician or combination
of politicians can prevent it.
The true policy of this.government is
to tender freedom in trade and intercourse,
and to make this tender in such
a fraternal way that it shall be an over"
ture to the Canadian people to become
a part of this Republic.
****** *
Any force used will defeat the object
>ve have in view. It can only be approached
by gradual measures that invite
and tend to good will and intercourse.
It can not be promoted by
controversy or retaliation. These
measures lead to of Iters, and cml in
war. There are restless spirits in every
generation that seek to rise by the
misfortunes of their country. There
are narrow politicians that seek by
tricks and popular appeals to gain an
advantage; but in the end they fall by
their own devices.
l.'iiHpokeu Words.
"It is impossible but that otl'enses
will come." Every day brings its
provocations, its perplexities, its misunderstandings.
Irritations arise;
frictions make their appearance ; hurts
are received. How hard it is amid all
these conditions to guard one's tongue
and leave unspoken what is best cover
ed by silence!
A mosquito bite may, if properly
fiilMv-itoil ?]f?vplnr> into All lllcei*.
Ivecp the skill thoroughly abraded,
sprinkle on a little acid, touch it with
minute particles of poison, and one
may have a canker or a gangrene.
The body will soon discharge its impurities
partially into that sunken plaee>
jand help convert it into an open sewer.
But let a mosquito bite alone, or apply
a little sweet-oil and ammonia, and it
soon disappears, leaving no trace.
A little wound in the spirit may be
cultivated until the whole nature is infected.
"A soft answer turneth away
wrath." "Gentle silence prevents untold
trouble." "A word fitly spoken

The Two.
j There were once in Rome two blind
I men, one of whom cried in the streets
I of the city, "He is helped whom God
j helpsthe other, on the contrary,
cried, "He is helped whom the emper_
J or helps." This they did every day,
I and the emperor heard it so often that
i he had a loaf of bread baked filled
j with golden pieces.
This gold-lilled loaf he sent to the
: blind man who appealed to the emperlor's
help. When he felt the heavy
j weight of the bread he sold it to the
I other beggar as soon as he met him.
j The blind man who bought the bread
!carried it home. When he had broken
jit and found the gold he thanked God,
and from that day ceased to beg. But
the other continued to beg through the
city, so the emperor summoned him to
his presence and asked him, "What
hast thou done with the loaf that I
' lately sent you?"
I "1 sold it to my friend because it
j was heavy and did not seem well ris|
en."
Then the emperor said, "Truly, he
; whom CJod helps is helped indeed,"
and turned the blind man from him.
.ifanion*!, tlac Iinii^o-Iiioitker.
The late Archbishop Trench tells in
j verse a story of the great Mohammedan
eonqueror of India, Mamoud, tliei
i image-breaker. He found an image lif;
teen feet high, and was about to destroy
it, when persons interposed, offering
him an enormous ransom if he
|would but spare this idol. lie put
t their beseeching* from him, answering
that he would rather he known as the
I breaker than as the seller of idols, he
j struck the image with Ins mace. Oth.
jers followed his example, till it was
I broken to pieces. As it broke it pour,
ed forth such a wealth of diamonds,
| rubies and other precious stones as lbr
j more than outweighed the ransom he
j had just refused. So, when our weak
heart pleads that this or that which we
j fear to lie wrong should be spared let
i us remember that we shall, must gain
greater riches of peace and joy by putting
from us what is evil, or even what
j is doubtful.
They who apply themselves to Jesus
I Christ shall be dealt with according to
their faith.
