Mn.‘-E. J..Honusox‘ through the Rev. James Simpson, says the Scott Act is un- Englhh, because it interferes with the right of the subject. The Privy Council of Great Britain, the hi host judicial tri- bunal of the empire, eclares that the Act is fully in accord with the principles of liberty. Who knows best?

Tan Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone has said that “a gore:-nment'sho‘uld so legis- late as to make it easy to do right and ditlicult to do wrong." He declares that “the time may nut be far distant when men will no more think of tolerstinga drainsho than of poisoninga well from which t eir neighbors draw water to drink."

REV. MR. BREWER.

of two. but of is life time from the moment when a man says “I will serve God" ' until the time when the last prayer goes out from his trembling body. Then person'- vcrancc is a necessity. ‘Vim are the great men in the world to-day 1 Those who

is universal So it is in the Cliristian life and in the national life. A .coi-tuin mer- chant alwa_vs kept the motto “Try Again" posted up in his counting-room, and how encouraging it must have been to his clerks. By trying again and again and again we reach the top. In conclusion the rev. gentleman referred to the Scott Act campaign. He urged his hearers to be true to their innnhood on Thursday next. The cliristians have been fighting a battle here for nine years and niurc, and to-day there are arranged against us all the evil forces in this city. He lmped and be- lieved that evoryniaii in his congregation will deposit his ballot for the Scott Act. He would be ashamed of the Methodist who would do otherwise, for that man would bring dishonor on the Church.

REV. MR. HAMLYN.

In the course of his sermon on Sunday morning, Rev. Mr. Hamlyn, preaching from Genesis -1 i., “In the beginning, God," said:——You will be called upon in a few days to record your votes in a matter affecting the social and spiritual welfare of this city. The fact that I have been such a short time in the comtnutiity and know so little of it, makes me tlifli- dent in urging you to support the Scott Act, and yet the very fricl: that I am come a stranger among you from other scenes, enables me to judge impartially of the question at issue. Icsuie here and found the city divided into two parties--nne party desirous of restricting‘ the sale of intoxicating liquors, and on this side I found’ the christian ministers, church workers and temperance workers, all striving nobly and unsellishly, with the

one object, the welfare of the souls of

their fellow citizens. On the other side I found mostly those who are sceltishly working for themselves only, and others who are quitiz in:litf'erent to the muse of temperance. This fact alone enables ms- to lllppnrl’. the Cauiada Temperance Act, and I have no doubt that those who put into practice the precepts I have enun- ciated this morning, will do likewise, If you put God first and last in everything you do, you will be led to do that which is well pleasing in his sight. I often think of the inscription on the monument of Lord Lawrence in Westminster Abbey. “He feared m.n so little because he feared God so much." If your conscience tells‘ you that you are doing God's will, regardless of what men may think, then

0 forward and God will bless you. llemeniber always “In the beginning, God.”

REV. MR. READ.

On Sunxlny evening Rev. Mr. Read preached from the words: “God. hath made msinupright; but they have sought out many inventions.”-¢Eccles. vii, 29.

I. Unfallen man was stitistied with the resources of nature. If is natural tenden- cies found. _every.1;tant supplied in the abundant provhion of the Creator. Man

of what was good. The knowledge of evil was not necessary. It was not the original purpose of the Creator that he should acquire it-. _

II. Fallen man misappropri-ited some of the abundance of _the earth to gratify his depraved appetite. The "inven- tions” referred to in the text dcrnot ap- pear to be the grand and useful discover- ice in the arts and sciences which have so largely contributed to the advance- ment and elevation of the huniaii race, but rather to those devices and contri- vances which have been “ sought out" to meet the cravings of rna.n’s sinful nature

Among these we place strong drink. Alcohol is not in nature; it is not it pro- duct of nature; it is not in the fruit or grain. If the fruits of the earth are left- to the uninterrupted operations of ne- tural law they never produce fermented liquors. Alcohol is produced by decay, by that sort - of decay known as. vinous fermentation. The making of it is an art, a chemical process that nature never follows, except when art directs and con- t,-,,]s_ Alcohol is a poison. The_dis<ay- ery of the tneghod of nifinigactpring may well be classe as one o e ‘ many in- ventions" which sinful man has “sought out." . A
