enongh to in. pei nuinent, in the regu
lar sermon, then again we say, in
G.*r» name, let there be at suitable
periods, [irotractci efforts, that from
the applying of the truth in quick
succession it tnny take fust bold of
the heart and bring tlic soul to
Christ. Not only in very harmoiiy
wiilt man’s mental and moral const,
tution, is the soul, dead in trespasses
and in sins, more likely to lie saving
ly impressed through such a comae,
than when it hears the truth at
intervals of seven .lays,-but it is a
fact well known to those who have
been at pains to inform themselves,
that many are led to attend tbe
preaching of the word during a pro
tracted season of eliureb services,
who if ever before seen in the iionse-
of God, it was most infrequent. Re
liable statistics therefore will show
that many have beeu saviffgly reach
ed through means of protracted ef
fort, whether in connection with tlic
regular church festivals or not, wlio
in all probability, apart from «tu:h
effort bad perished.
In coastraining tbo outside world,
therefore, to come to Christ, the
preaching the truth for days and
oral Hynod in North America rovers
an area of territory from (lie north
era Isnmdary of Virginia to the
Gulf ob-Mexioo, and to the western
boundary of Missouri, Arkansas and
Mississippi. Columbia is therefore 1

vuted mciett of the Houtb, is very
great, moulding and shaping oar
young men for poririons of urefctl !
nos* in our church. Again, the at
