In (Jfe-j’ear 1788, as Bishop Asljpry was
flp his way to the cjty of Charleston, ’S. C.
jn. passing fhroug}) flic f jffisli fif §{ ;
he chanced to. fall in with a coloured man ;
belonging to Col. W. —, whose name was
Pgnch. When the Bishop drove up, he
isfung,.
was sitfjng on the bank qf a creek, fishing,
and carelessly whistling a jig tune. Ifis
pljaraefer had beeu bad; he ifas whclly ir
religious, probably not knowing what the
-term religion meant; anql jmd been addic
ted to running away. The Bjshop stopped
bis horse \yhen lie reached him, and enter
ed into conversation with him. He imme
diately asked Punch if he ever prayed.—
To this the reply was, “No, Sir.” .With
leave to-visit him, and came sixty or .sev- his spirit atvay while saying—-Let thy bct-I
enty tniles on foot to Charleston during vant depart in peace—let—let—-let.! - “1
Bishop A’s Wt visrt to the gj^y.^ ’Whajja' * — x- «•!. =
meeting must that have been !
But to resume fhe thread of ouhtnaiiju-
tive. After the Bishop loft him/ Punch.,
filled with a new and sour-stirriug train of
thoughts, drew up his fishhrg^line, _ and set
man’s .soul; and to use his own" language
when afterwards relating the scene, “P
been tink ’fore I got home Punch he .gone;
to liell.”' However, he faithfully followed
the directions.of his spiritual instructor^

few days he was brought happily to “the
knowledge 6i salvation by the remission of
sins through faith in Christ.” Blessed
economy of Gospel salvation, which reach-,
pa in its adaptations "to. qs&ufe, the
lowest, the farthest gpji? from light and
^ife:—jyhich, by the accompanying- ener
gies of its spiritual power reiidqr' vital- anti

No man could be expeeted. to keep , all
these things concealed jn the bosom.—
Forthwith Punch began ,to talk About die
soul, and salvation, and the hpp.eof ^^y^ftf'
to Kis fellow, servaut#. It .tvsa a strahge
tale to them, but not an. idle, taley- 1 Many'
became thoughtful about 'tHeim j (re-;

as to what they should do to be saved. The.
little leaven worked. One and another
praying to God for light, and mercy; was
brought to knoyj Chrhtf in t^e, \jW u jtestar-

and prayers. - •' ~.f:
All this of course could not pass -without
the notice of the oversger; who feH. himfeeff-
ctilled on to put down ‘Uhis way3’ “Being
thus restricted, Punch could only speak
privately and in his own house to a few of
his friends who were awakened to the in
terests of their souls. One nigiit, he heard
the overseer, call him, as a few had mgt
his house l'or prayer. lie went out, autic-
ij a ting rough co.nspimences ; but to his a^ :
icui'iiaient he found’the overseer prostrate
on the ground, crying to God Ibriiicrcy on

he-said,—“I cry, 1 pray, I shout, I beg;
de Lord hear; presently de obirshcer Imj
rise ; he'trow he anns iou.-d mft; he tank
God; auyV den, he tank Punch'!’ This
overseer shortly afterwards joined the

for the offeneft, when in a state of beastln

small value, and selling the same to a ne

of felony, afid have the boy punished for
