INSURANGE COMPANY

| Ordination of Rev. Mr. Mahon

‘AND INDUCTION INTO THE CHARGE OF S87. PETER’S ROAD AND BRACKLEY POINT.

;

|

; On Thursday, 4th inst., the Presbytery of P. E. I. met at St. Peter’s Road for the |purpese of ordaining Mr. Mahon who has | just completed his studies and for inducting |him into. the charge of the above churches which had extended to him a unanimous cal]. Mr. Mahon’s examination before the Presbytery was deemed quite satisfactory, and it was heartily resolved to proceed with his ordination and induction.

In the afternoon the people representing both churches met, and the Rev. John Mc- Leod of Strathalbyn preached the ordina- tion sermon, taking for his text I Timothy, 4 chap. and 16 verse. After introductory remarks, his first division was an exhorta- tion for the Minister to take care of him- self. Self care was necessary. A man that will not take care of himself it ill becomes to take care of others. The Minister must be careful of himself because the Ministry was his own choice. It is a voluntary re- sponsibility taken upon himself, Parents

and friends must not make Ministers. The Holy Ghost makes them. Ministers must take heed because they are watched. No

men’s actions are more carefully watched than theirs. Good men and bad men, God and the devil, are watching them.

His second division was to take heed unto the docirins. The Bible is our text book. The Minist r must keep his doctrine near to him wherever he is. He must be a preacher everywhere. He to is not to be a Calvinist one day and an Arminian the other. If he is a Presbyterian let him be one. The preacher said I am not afraid of the word Calvinist, but 1 would rather cail it Biblism. His third division was an ex- hortation to continue in these things. When ministers are engaged in this work they are engaged by the Lord. They are en- gaged forever. This exhortation of Pan] could only be obeyed by fellowship with God. The sermon was delivered with much fervor and energy.

After the sermon Mr. Mahon was ordain- ed by the laying on of hands. Rev. Messrs McLennan, McLeod, Archibald, Grant, Isaac Thompson, Esq., taking part in this ceremony.

Rev. K. McLennan gave the charge to the newly ordained minister. It was beautifully appropriate. After congratulat- ing Mr. Mahon upon his call to this charge his ordination and admission to this Pres- bytery and making very com- plimentary references to the former ministers who had charge there, he proceeded to urge upon the minister ihe ne cessity cf taking care of his health and of his personal comfort. Whatever is proper to your personal comfort, to your health to your rest and your equipment you ought to have. These remarks were made not to encourage the minister in idleness, or luxury or vanity, but because if he heeded them he would be more successful and capable. Mr. McLennan reminded the young minister that he would be expected to preach the good old fashioned doctrines of Christ and Him crucified, salvation through Christ, the atonement, a living communion with Christ by faith. Very judicious was the exhortation to preach morality. The Gospel he was to preach was the Gospel of Salvation not in the future but of asalvation now. The minister was not answerable for results, but only for the clear preaching of the truth. Mr. Mahon was remined that the people of whom he had taken charge would welcome good preach- ing. He was urged to give them the result of thoughts. He was to give them the re- sults of thought without the old forms of thought. He was to go on the line of plain speaking. The preacher concluded by say- ing that he was speaking in the light of twenty years and upwards of experience and observation as a Christian Minister. I commend you, he said, in conclusion: ‘‘ To God and to the word of His grace. The charge was of a most practical nature, but was couched in chaste language and deliver- ed in a most effective and pleasing manner. Rev. Mr. Archibald delivered the ser- mon to the congregation. In a straight- forward business like way he reminded them of their duties and of the various ways in which they might co-operate with their minister. His manner was very pleasing and sensible, and his remarks worthy of deep attention. Rev. K. McLennan, who had charge of the service, dismissed the people with the benediction. After- ward the people were introduced to the minister. Considering the very busy sea- son there was a large congregation present. All seemed deeply interested in the pro- ceedings. May the ministry so auspicious- ly begun be one of great blessings to all concerned. —-Com.

Farmers have it all their own way. Good providence smiles upon them. A while ago they prayed for fine weather and a pleasant harvest time, and they got both; then they asked for rain and a good plough- ing time, and forthwith they arrived; now they have commenced to ask fer good prices, and men of faith and perseverance generally speaking, got them. Success to our farmers, they are the backbone of our Island.

If you are fond of canine music for good- ness sake come to Sour’s. We have a first- class stock of it, and to spare. Animals of all sizes and shapes, and every conceivable breed in the dog line, supply it by the yard. Patent organette manufacturers find their occupation completely gone, and the old-fashioned organ grinder would only scare up a howl, The music is so sweet too, something between the rasp of a file across a saw and the pum pum of a tom-tom in a Japanese back settlement. Occasionally it is diversified by a solo, consisting of whines, yelps and snarls; then a lovely duct floats upon the air in the shape of stentorian barks and dulcet growls, finally a magnificent discord bursts forth and the whole choir woes into operation, unti! one’s feelings are so overcome, that guns and sudden death are thought of, and those dogs would be sent to the happy hunting ground, carrying a load of lead, if we could only get at them in time. Their concerts come off with full effect generally about midnight. Throwing jokes aside, dogs here are occasionally an insufferable nuisance. Why their owners don’t keep them chained at night is a wonder.

Our Temperance meeting came off last Monday evening according to advertise- ment. It was a good one, and well attend- ed, although the weather was most incle- ment. The Vice-President, the Rev. J. G. Cameron, took the chair in the unavoidable absence of the President. The speakers of the evening were the Rev. Profeseor Bur- wash, and the Rev. Gregory McDonald. Both gentlemen delivered eloquent and telling addresses, in the course of which the Temperance question was ably handled; the evils of intemperance forcibly placed; the necessity for moral suasion and the Scott Act discussed; the danger of using intoxicating liquors set forth; the misery drunkenness had wrought morally, men- tally and physically, laid bare; concluding with an appeal to ull who heard them to come out nobly in che cause of Temperance and educate the people to the fact that in whichever way we cheose to look at it, ““we cannot afford” to let this biighting liquor traflic continue in our midst.

Our esteemed parish priest, Rev. D. F, McDonald, is away from us for a short time. During the course of his sermon on last Sunday morning he urged upon his hearers, in forcible and earnest language, the question of temperance. Strange, passing strange indeed, that notwithstand- the earnest entreaty and faithful warnings of our clergymen, many, very many, will persist in worshipping at the shrine of bacchus, and giving their support. to the liquor traffic. :

The weather is quite like fall. Yester- day a little before two o'clock, hailstones paid us a visit, but old mother earth didn't like them, and melted them out of sight in a minute or two. December visitors put- ting in an appearance in October, is one of those odd freaks which i suppose me must put up with,

A Nova Scotia schooner went into a new business a night or two ago. Not con- tented with the ocean wide, she made a run for Sterns’ warehouse, but the night being dark she got stuck on the way, and her terror struck navigators displayed their lung power calling for help. Help soon arrived, and by next morning she was got safely out of her scrape almost undamaged.

Several cases under the Scott Act were brought before Mr. Underhay and another Justice of the Peace. Two were fived, and the remainder postponed to the 16th inst. Some fault is being found, about the cases being tried so far away—eight or nine miles from Souris—and it is intended that trials after the 15th inst. will take place in the Souris Court Hovse.

Our harbor is full of fishing vessels. Yesterday morning the steamer ‘‘ Beaver’ hove in sight, ventured towards her berth, turped round and put out again, on to Georgetown, leaving behind disappointed would-be passengers. Some say that the schooners lying inside the breakwater were so crowded together, that the steamer would run considerable risk in going in to her own berth, hence her not stopping as Souris.

A subscription list has been opened here, with the following heading:—‘‘At a meet- ing of the locel branch of the Dominion Temperance Alliance held on Monday evening, Oct. Ist, 1883, it was decided to open a subscription list on behalf of the funds of the Alliance, to enable the carrying on of Temperance work. The officers and members of our local branch appeal to all law-abiding and re- ‘spectabie members of the community for | their support. Our desire is to aid in crushing intemperance, to reclaim the ‘drunkard, and assist in maintaining the ‘laws of our country.” For this purpose ‘sums ranging from twenty-five cents toa doliar, and over, have beea already re- ‘ceived, but more is necessary.
