REV. JAMES MAC DOUGALUS VISIT TO CAMBRIDGE MASS.

iAfter service on Sabbath last the Rev Jas. McDougall gave a most lnrterestlng and impressive account of his recent visit to Cambridge Mass. He spoke in the highest terms of the members of the con--- gregation. and feelingly referred Io the extreme kindness shown to him during his visit. He eulogizcd in the highest. terms the efficient staff of riders and referred to the evangelistic work being carried on by Mr. F. Horton. The congregation is in a prosperous condition and has emerged from a eries of trying experiences. The Sacrament of tire Lords Supper was administered and also the ordinance of Baptism on severul occasions. A noted in- crease in church membership was noted. He referred to the low state 0! WIIBIOII. in that vicinity and the questionable methods that are being employed in a fruitless en- deavor to attract people to the church. A regular attendant of one

of the leading churches had stat- ed that during the past year h.) had not heard the nauie of Jesus mentioned in a sermon. A iticct- lng in connection with the church of Scotland has been established in Quincy ‘Mass. and a service had been held In a private huilse iu

and who Iwere anxious to hear the

He addressed the con gregation at the close of the ser- Vic-e and spoke nf his conversion and the persecution he had endur- ed. ile would never forget the scr- mon he had heard. tho first real gospel ne had heard since conver- sion. Mr. -MaoDougall has an offer of a very interesting position in the Jewish ‘Mission with a yearly renumeration of $12000. iMr. Mac‘ Dougall also referred to arevival among the students in a. collegc in South Carolina where several of the students were reloicinfi lb a. special outpouring of the Holy Spir- it. He asked for the continued and unlit-ed "prayers of all, that these little streams may increase in vol- ume and flow together, and that a great ocean of m-ighty waters muy lift its voice in praise to God and the ‘Lamb. Surely we need a reviv- al cf religion to awaken our deud churches and dispel the cold form- ality nhal has taken possession of so many so called Christians. Mr. MaoDourull has returned with ren- ewed ontbusiusm and greater zeal in the cause of his Master.
