WAITER DAHIEL PASTOR. Morniu;/ Sermon. St. John, X. 4. 'Ami when he puttch forth his own sheep, he goeth helore them, and the sheep tollow him, for they know his voice." There are tour very comforting and edifying lessons taught us in the text. ist. That the sheep are pul forth into the darkness, hy Christ. 2d. T|i.\t Christ goes helore them. 3d. That His sheep follow Him. And the fourth lesson gives us the cause ot this active obedience on their part, "for they know his voice." I. Tho time for pasturing sheep was du ring the night. This is confirmed by the observation ot travelers, as well as by thc Scriptures. The angels that an nounced the birth of Chnsl did so at night as the shepherds watched their Hocks. Night relative to thc bodily safety and preservation of thc sheep was the most dangerous time that could be chosen, for under the cover ol darkness the wild an imals attacked the. flocks, and the thief had the more favorable opportunity to execute his work. The question therefore arises, why was the night chosen as the time lor leading forth thc Hocks to their pas tures." The answer is satisfactory; be cause it was ot absolute necessity, the climate being such that night was the only available lime for this work. Clouds of high doctrines, deep myste ries encircle the Bible and our God. Darkness overshadows our pathway. We have, amid these scenes of '.lankness heard the stealthy step, beheld the crouching lorm, felt thequtek hot breath, and looked upon the glaring eye-balls ot thc great enemy ol souls. Troubles multiplied. We almost sunk beneath fear and sorrow. Then we have looked up at these clouds and have seen coruscations of divine light play and glitter upon their dark forms and then we have known that thc Son was beyond them ; and like Moses we have lett en. coil raged to step forth into the thick cloud where God is. Sometimes we have wondered why we are called to walk these dark pain ways. We have envied the chariot and horsemen of the enraptured prophet. Wc have wished for a translation like Enoch's. Then there has come to us "a still small voice" like that which came to thc hiding prophet after his soul had been tried by the wind, the lire and thc earthquake, and wc have felt that God is with us, and that all is well. God leads by the right way, though it may be frequently a way ot darkness and trial. He leads by that eternal way ot divine strength made perfect in hu man weakness. Illust. We have walked to our earth ly homes in the darkness, the shadows of walls, fences, trees, have interlaced themselves across our pathway. Nol a star lent ils twinkling light, but one thing was dimly visible, and that was the pathway in which wc walked ; but when we reached thc door of our home, and it was opened to us, the light stream ed therefrom and lil up the pathway which we had trod with Kudenlike splendor. So when wc shall reach our eternal home the glory ol Christ's coun tenance, as he opens to us the gales ol the eternal city will illumine the pathway we have trod, and wc will know why He hath lcd us so. li The second thought is that Christ goes helore His sheep. We arc not called upon to travel an untried path, but to follow our Shepherd. The Redeemer when He came to con quer the evil one, did not c une clad with omnipotence that he might lay hold ot his enemy and demolish him. Nei ther did He come with the power of the Archangel to touch him with thc spear, but He came with the naked hands of a man to grapple with the energy and de molish pim through human weakness made perfect by a dependence upon db vine strength and protection. God did not spare His own Son. Worn with all that humanity can en dure, he struggled with fasting and temptation on tin? mount, and met them as a ihan with naked faith in His Father. Weighed down, in the Garden, with all the fear and dark forebodings that human flesh can hear He struggled with thc black clouds of despair, and held on by tlie human strength ol patience. Through thc conquering gates ol the darkness of death He went down, and up through that darkness came the cry : "Thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, nor suiter Thine Holy One to sec corrup tion." "He trod thc wine press alone," and thus taught us practically how io meet every trial and difficulty. III. His sheep follow Him. Here is the touchstone of all christian endeavor, thc crucible that tries the true metal. I have been asked, frequently, what hann is there in dancing ? Not that I seek that frivolous amusement as a tar get, do I turn to its consideration, but I place along with it all thc doubtful im proprieties of the (h'y and answer, "Mi/ sheep fallow me " Family pride has done much to re strain men from the grosser vices, ought not a Christian dignity wield a more powerltil influence over us ? (Illustrations ) Alexander the great was' solicited when a boy to run in a loot race with thc common people he replied, "1 am the son of a King." Wc are the children of a King, and wc should so lollow Him that we will not bring reproach upon His glorious cause and name. IV. 1 His sheep know His voice. Not by somebody's else description of it. They do not come to that knowledge through a process ol reasoning, but it is intuitive. Amid the darkness, in thc pelting storms as well as during the noonday, the Christian hears the Master call, in His providences and in Mis word. They realize thal he waits beyond this ile to gather them with those who have gone before into one fold. There are voices that call us hence, we would not live always. 1 PRESBYTERIAK-RtV W. fl.

Tho Wilderness of Sinai,*-After Israel's grout deliverance thoy woro introduced to Hf? in thu wilderness of Sinai. This wilder ness is iv triangle Its baso i? 150 miles in length. Its? apex divides tho Red sea into two amis. Tho ?ido on tho western arm, known aa tho ij.iilf of SUCK, extends 100 miles; tho sido tm llio custom, called tho Gulf of Akabn, ls ISOInilo i ju length. Thus thu peninsula of Binni a u nin ?un moa of 11,(300square miles. As tho i m h .sn hi of Minni extends Uko a wedge .

The desert of Kt Til), which is also known tis tho Wilderness of Paranoia divided into two nearly equal parts bj' tho Watty ol Arish, or tho river of Egypt, tho V.TSUTH boundary of Israel's promised pos sessions, which has sevoral brunches, espe cially on tho south and east sides. From Unza to tito foot of tito Dead sea is tho bttso of another triangle which takes up tho north cast corner of lit Tib, mid which was known ns tho Nogob, or South country. Here Abraham, Isaac mid Jacob dwelt. Tho most forillo port of this eountry, which ls inferior lo tho region abovo it, isthuNogob; tho Wilderness ol' thu Wanderings, Et Till is comparatively sterile, and tho Sinaitie penin sula produces but little vegetation except in the wadios, or Ht roam bods, lt is believed, however, by prominent geogruphors and ex plorers, for seemingly* weighty reasons, that tho r-riinitic peninsula was once far moro fer tile than nt prosont. Even now moro than 0,000 Bedawlti lind nt least a partial subsist ence in it, alt lu m^li their provisions ni e, to some extent, supplemented from Egypt. Doubtless tho peninsuln lins sintered from a loss of trees, which woro tit ono timo ruth lessly destroyed to furnish charcoal for ex portation. Hut wo may not suppose, under any circum stances, thal thu Simillic peninsula could havo bogan to support :J,00(>,(,cO of people, or oven a hundredth purl of that mininer, if they had to depend on tho resources of tho country.

There has been n t.?V.-discussion ns to what is intruded boro ' by tho manila. Many think that it is tho product of tho tamarisk tree, such as is found 1 to-day in small quantities. Tho yield is not moro than GOO or 700 pounds. Unless tho quantity was miraculously increased, like tho 1 five loaves and two fishes, it could never havo furnished food enough for tho Isra?lites. Bo- , sides, this manna which conies from tho tam- , mink tree is to bo lind only during two months. Tho object of giving this food to Israel was not only that (Soil might preserva lifo, but rtlso that bo might provo thom whether thoy would walk in his law or not. 1 V. 5, Evidently tho supply was miraculous.

In tito morn ing they woro to seo a sight willoh had never greeted their eyes before. They woro to soo Hie ground covered with tho pure white manna. This must havo been a peculiarly impressive Kpeotaclo to them, as in Egypt tliey had perhaps never soon snow or hoar frost, which tho mumm resembled (Ex. xvi, li). They wero reminded, too, Hint God honrd their murmurings, that those murmurings woro not directed against Moses, God's ?erv ant, but against God himself.
