ADDRESS.

The following address was presented to Pastor W. A. Whitman at the close of his farewell service at Dandas, on Sunday, May 9th:—

To Our Esteemep Pastor,—

Having learned with regret your inten- tion of leaving us to farther pursue your studies, the Baptist Church, B. Y. P. U. and Sabbath School, in justice to you as well as ourselves, wish to give to you this faint expression of our appreciation of your labors since vou came amongst us. We have, during the past year, been close- ly anited with you in Christian fellowshir and service forthe Master. We have thus learned to esteem very highly your Christian qualities and constant and faith- ful ministrations, both in the joys o health and happiness and in the sorrows of sickness aud death.

We feel sure thatthe bonds of union thus formed and strengthened will con- tinue ever Yeyond the bounds of this earthly life.

The B. Y. P. U. would most especially eXpres8 our gratitude to you for your untiring effurts to lead us to a higher state of faithfulness and duty.

Our united prayer is that the richest blessings of the Lord may be your portion forever. We trust that your faithtulness in proclaiming the Gospe: will be a strong incentive to lead others to more conse- crated service in the Lord’s work. May you, dear brother, have many souls tor — hire, and fur your reward eternal ife,

On behalf of the Church, A. D. Maruesoy, Ch. Clerk.

DIED.

At his residence Wood Islands on the 10 inst., Donald MeMillian, miller, in the 80th year of his age, much and deservedly regretted by a large circle of friends and acquaintenance, leaving an aged widow,two sons and two daughter to mouru the loss of a kind husband and an indulg=nt father.

About fifty years ago the subject of the foregoing notice was entrusted with the crossing with the mails in winter for veveral years from Wood Islands to Pictou in Nova Scotia, and the hardships then usdergome required more than ordinary perseverance and tact, and was always per- formed with safety. Subsequently he attended to the chief of the sick and many a night and day he would be called some- times 15 miles to relieve a sick one or set a broken limb when medical doctors were few and far between and was remarkably successful, thus performing the service without fee or reward to alleviate the dis- tressed, rendering the name of “Donald Shamus” as he was tamiliarly known, to be held in grateful remembrance for many years tocome. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church at Wood Islands.

A CRITIC CRITICISED.

£irx,—The Morning Guardian has strong objecuuons to Papal lotallibility,—but none whatever as to its own. ibis director of public morals, from Lambeth Palice to

, Kupert’s Land, is as perfectly cer.aiu pro-

bibition is the only cure for int mperance as thongh it had adirect revelation frum lieaven. It is understood, however, that most of its utterances on this subject emanate from an occult oracle.

Some time ago the columus of that jour- nal were occupied in taking to task the Archbishop of Canterbury for his belief in the scientific theory of evolution, when it was pleased to prepound for His Grace’s accepiance @ theory lung ago exploded by science and the leading reigious journals of our time. Itis not yet known whether the Archbishop das profited by the Guar- dian’s scholarly (?) auxiety for his ortho— doxy ! Now,avother digoitary is summoned before the bar of justice peculiar to that paper, iu the person of the Archbishop of Rupert’s Land. The article devoted to His Grace’s views upon probibition does not quote one sentence showing what these views are; but, as in all other moral ques- tions, asks the public to accept its ipse dixit and concur in the anathema. Ordin- ary minds would have hesitated te thus condemn him whom on the same page they could acknowledge to be the foremost Christian statesman in the Church or the English speaking people. But, great as his Grace is known to be, not agreeing with the extraordinary mind of this morning journal, he is hopelessly in the dark. In fact, when we come to consider the liquor systems which Christian England and Ontario find to be wisest and best, we wonder thatthe writer of the artic:e re- ferred to is content to waste himself on our little city wher his mighty irfiuence might be directly brovght to bear upon the Government at its source.

If the Guardian considers the Bishop a hopeless sinner because he holds to tne temperate use of wine, then what are we to say if His Grace is caught sinning with St. Paul acd St, Timethy and even our Lord himself ‘who did no sia neither was guile tound in His mouth” which is more than can be said of many whose only religion is so-called total abstinence. It is the use as the abuse which teat journal condemns. Is it love for bumanity or mere advocacy of the snibboleths of a party that tries to to make unreason pre- vail and inconsistency right?

It does not appear to have occurred to the Guardian that there is a serious doubt inthe minds of very many wire and Christian people whether Probibition will make temperate and law-abiding citizens. It certainly cannot make men temperate 20 faras intoxicauts are concerned; fur there would be nothing left to be temperaie on. if .& © Sas 7 te not drunk simply because he cannot obtain the intoxicant, he is merally a drunkard. Probibition is after all nega- tive and protestant, like those churches which p.o it as a faith to their banner and add total abstinence us a new doctrine to the Christian creed. They still adhere to the Judaistic negatives which were re- placed or complcted by the grace and truth of the positive is life that came by Jesus Christ. The law of the lani mu’, of course, have prohibitions to protect ite citizens from the lawless; but it cannot extend those prohibitions to things which, thous) liable to abuse, are in tuemsel ves useful.

The whole matter resolves itself into a question of the signal failure of those who call themselves churches of Jesus Christ te carry out his teaching. Those that claim to be most free from the machinery and jaw of churches they would condemn, are now the very snes who want to save the drunkard by the machinery of law. They have divided the church into sect«; and now to save the World, which they have cast off, they must needs resort to the State to do what they might bave done had they worked as He told them

Yours, for love instead of law, ’ A Citizen.
