JanSS-Iy ' The more faithfuls pastor is, .and the more fit by hie very sensitiveness to be 'a good pifetor, the more he is paioed by the upueoessary complaints of bis people. One form of his an noyance »the complaint of sick peo ple tbit tbe.'pastor does not visit them. The invalid who is a member P#ja church ought to know that ,be baa AO, friend in the world more ready come to sec biin than the pastor. He ought to fee lhe parishioner of a pas tor of sash a character at to be the mppt desirable roan tor the sick man ’ it* taa; toad yht through all the large churches people sicken, and sometimes recover, and then go sulking through the church six months, until at last it ii discovered that the ground of their grumbling is that the pastor had not visited them when they were siok. It is' , thi8 senseless demand of omnis cience which is so intolerable. ..This naturally brings up the ques tion whether the pastor ought to go to bee sick people until be is sent for.— What right has a whole congregation to anppose that the pastor knows of sickness when no human being ever presained upon the physician’s having that knowledge? '' It would be less unreasonable to make this latter sup position. ii physician passing amongst the families in which he has patients inigbt 1 begin to‘ suspect from 'some lily 1 ^>pedAbc6'thkf sickness would rtly ensue) and might therefore be •gpeetedfto go, around in due time 1 to sea if the suspected person was really ilol!' ,1 Iisfcal' ; of that, ft is tbe pastor, V mao engaged in quite- difieront stud- iaalwho la supposed td.be able*. from ledking otor bis congregation on Sun- daV,’ to believe that Mr. A. will bo sick oh Mohday, Mrs. B. will be ill on Taesday, Mr. 0. will sprain bis ankle OB Wednesday, Mrs. D.’s obild will have the measles on Tbnraday, and so ph through the week; Tbe physician, Whose business it is especially to look after sick folk, never goes until he is sent, even if he knows there is sick ness; but tbe minister is expected to come withont being sent for, and to be able to tell that there is sickness without any information. This subject leads us to tbe general observation that there seems to ns to be somethiug wrong in oar modern cbnrcb-life, or at least tbero is some defect that should be remedied. So many people join tbe cDnrch that hove to bo nursed and dawdled oil their lives to keep them in tbe church, whereas a member of a church ought not to hang on its skirts as the strag glers of an army, bat ought to bo in corporated into its companies and reg iments, in order to give efficiency to the sacramental host. Perhaps each church needs three bishops: a pastor bishop, an evangel ical bishop and a teacher bishop—one to take care of those, who are already enrolled in tbe cbnrob, to keep them toned np aod drilled; another to go out, leading forth as many of the churcb as he can, to bring in those who are outside, beating up recruits and training them for tbe service; and a third to preach to those inside and outside the church, giving bis whole time to that one work. As it is now three functions are expected to be dis charged by one man. Whoever that man is, Bnd however large his capa bilities of discharging duties in these three departments, it is quite certain to excel in one. A man who devotes himself to peraonal care of hundreds of members of a chrreh will have lit tle time to go out amongst men of the world and endeavor to briug mein into the Church of God. Ho who de votes his whole week to this Utter em ployment csd have little timeto pre pare for the pulpit; and be who does, Or Undertakes to do, all three, cannot hope io do any of them quite as well. Hence, the disappointment. , It is r as if a,man undertook, to practice medi cine and law and edit a daily paper.-— That is just what is often expected of pastors in the large churches of onr cities.—Dr. Deem*.

When be had been gone ten minutes the employer came out to read it. He read : “Called to pay yon that ninety dol lars, bnt you were out. Am off for Tennessee. See yon when I return in Jaonary. Tra-la I” It was the work of only ten aecoads to fling on bis bnt and reach tho street; bnt it was too late. An boar’s bard work, including a walk to one of tbe depots, failed to turn up tbe man who had money to leavo in stead of n bill to collect The boy over there was looking very moch cast down yesterday. One wonld have said that somebody bad been swearing at him. Great Storm Predicted. Ottawa, Ont., September 25—Dr. E. Stone Wiggins, of the finanoe de partment, wbo sometime ago predict ed that tbe recent gale wonld sweep from east to weBt over tbe continent, says a great storm will strike this planet in March next. He gives this timely warning: “It will be first felt in tbe Northern Pacific, and will crons tbe meridian of Ottawa at noon (5 p. m. London time) on Snnday March 11,1883. No vessel smaller thhn a Cunarder will be able to live in this temptest. India, tbe Sonth of Europe, England, and especially tbe North American conti nent will be tho theatre of its ravages. Ah all the low lands on the Atlantio will be submerged, I advise ship builders to place their prospective ves sels high upon stocks, and farmers having loose valuables, such as bay, cattle, etc., to remove them to a place of safety. I beg farther, most re spectively, to appeal to the honorable minister of marine that bo will per emptorily ordor np storm drams on al< *he Canadiam coast not later than ■ h f 20th of February, and thns per mit no vessel to leavo the harbor. If this is not done, hundreds of lives will be lost and millions worth of property destroyed.” Tbe Jeannette Expedition. , Washington, September 28.—En gineer Melville has been direoted by thto acting secretary of tbe navy to re tain in bis possession 1 the- reobrds ! of the Jeanette expedition, whiob : lie preserved, anti) After the investigation which has been ordered.' 1 Melville will aooordingly keep in his' oastody the two weatherbeaten cheats which he brought; with him; but'he will re- taro to their writers, as far ns may be possible, a number of letters sent >to memberb of tbe expedition who Will never return. Melville bay*’titers is a great deal of valuable matter, ih tbe records'that has ootyet been publish ed. He will incorporate the substance of many of these records fa bis re port, which he is now 1 writing. He says the expense incurred by himself and the CurviVors after they left De Long is probably about 40,000 rabies. As to tbe investigation, he says be does not see Why Cde should be order ed, or why congress need ' trouble ’it self about the matter, as tbe Jeannette was a private vessel, And 1 fhe firaw ire re volunteers, and the expenses were toll paid by Mr. Bennett.

A few nighte ago, hating provided himself with an e^niaite pair of eloth-top Norwich gaiters, he seated himself nt her side on tbe family sofa. They were close togeth er, ns in chromes of “Babes in tbe Woods,” and each held tbe other on the sofa. A Newfoundland dog lay down at tbe feet of the pair. As the night was warm the lover took off bis shoes and placed them in front of him on the floor. Tbe dog looked at the shoes and pretended to fall asleep. Presently bis musical snore, mingled with the ticking of tbe Kitchen dock and tbe clack of katydids outside, in spired slumber iu tbe couple. His bead fell on her shoulder, and her bangs on bis bead and they fell asleep. Meanwhile the dog awoke and fell to work on tbe gaiters, which he mistook for a side of solo leather. When tbe lovers came to, tbe intelligent animal had chewed np both shoes so fine that they had the shapeless and discour aged look of potato soup at a seaside hotel. When the man woke .np and realized the situation be said he hoped “none of those darned news papers wonld get bold of it.” To bis prevent Buob a catastrophe he took shoes to a shoemaker next morning and told him all about the,, affair. He went borne in his stbpkings' that night. '' ' '* Augusta, Ga., Feb., 24, 1879. > Mr. W. H.

How reads it? *Lo, I am with you alway, even nnto the end of tbe world.’ If Christ be with me, wbat shall I fear ? If be is mine all the powera of earth to me are nothing more than a spider’s web.” Those of ns wbo are in tbe habit of withholding our contributions to tbe eanse of foreign missions, on the us- snmption that they do no good, would do well to read the following item, which we clip from an exchange: “The census of missions is to be ta ken next year, and it is estimated that it will show an increase of two hun dred thousand native Christiana, in India, Ceylon and- Barmab, for the last ten years—five hundred thousand ia all. Where ia the doubter in the sacoess qf pbriatian missions?” Tbe North American Revwiew says: "During tbe century just passed, the copulation of the united States has mereased eleven fold, and churches hhvo increased seven fold, and while a hundred years ago there was one church to every one thousand seven hundred inhabitants, there is now one for svery five bnndred and twenty- nine.” This doeft not afford much en couragement to Colonel Ingersoll in bis crusade against tbe God of the Bible. It looks very much as if Chris tianity might survive some of its ene mies who are still alive, having out grown so many wbo are now dead.— Apropos to this, we note tbe fact tbnt a tow years ago tbe the “Piine Me morial Hall,” in the city of Boston, was' Bold for debt incurred ia its building. It will be a long time be fore tbe tolling bells will call tbe world to attend Christianity's funeral A
