Dr, Daniel is known as a otroug proaohor, end on this occasion was at his host. His points Wore olear, oondiso, loglonl, dem onstrating tho goBpol of Christ to bo world-wide in ita mission. It shall bo preached until ovory nation and every individual sholl hoar tho story of tho oross. Tho spirit of Christ is n mis sionary spirit. Tho supremo sacrifico for tho rodomption of tho world was prompted by his lovo. Ho oame to sock and to savo tho lout, and commissioned his disoiples to go into all tho world and teach all nations. Tho anti-mission spirit is necessarily anti-Christian. No short ftynopsis can do justice to his ablo soi mon. Ho held tho closest attention of his largo congregation for an hour, and n lasting impression for good was mado. In tho af tornoon at 4 o'clock thoro was a mass mooting of nil tho Sunday sohools.

Tho imperativo ne cessity for Christian education of tho highest order was stressed. Tho ago demands tho highest typo of manhood and womanhood, and tho training neces sary to thoir development can bo found only in schools, colleges and universities dominated by tho purest religious senti ment. Tho education of tho hoad, tho heart and tho hand ?B necessary to tho formation of a well-rounded character. Ho would not antagonize any of tho edu cational institutions supported by tho State, but ho thought whatovor tho State forced from us in taxation for her insti tutions, tho lovo of Christ would con strain us to do as much for tho causo of Christian education. Ho spoko for fifty minutes, ovory sonteuco bristling with reason and wisdom and carrying convic tion to bia hearers. Would that ho could present tho causo boforo all our congre gations in tho happy manner which ho did on this occasion. Thoro is little doubt that the amount desired will bo raised, and ovon tho $2,000,000 mark may bo roached.
