I am now in your hat «ls. and so are these congregations. lf you my I ahnuld go to \Vo’ulville. I must attire tn nix-y, and seek help to do my Work there ; if you slmuld decide on my remain- ing. I am willing to remain. There is only one other matttor and it is one that weighs considerably with me. Some l5 years ago I infiured my throat. not by loud preaching. for that has nevur been a habit of mine .-, but by too contimmus Work when there were few ministers in the county. At len 'th I had to quit wurk for six months. Again aet summer it laid an arrest on all week day preaching. and at the directlon of the doctors I took him months rest. I am now much better ; but the Weakness in the threat still remains. I have consulted my physician and while he says nothing on the merits of the case, he says decidedly that there might be a risk in attempting three heavy sci-ricer each Sabbath in a larger church than my present one. Change of locality might favor me; but there might be t risk of breaking down in two or three years. This : lso is entitled to some weight. and in giving it weight I am consulting the interest of the “'oodville congregation. I know that congregation is proverbially generous. and l understyd they are prepared to risk all; l I this; int is it right to inflict the risk on them! My past services for twenty-three years among the Uhatsworth congregation in gathering them together, organizing their sessions and Deacon‘s court :t, helping them ; in building church and mouse. and raising the communion roll from l3 to its present number of being close on 250, my working for years on a salary that was and is small and used to be very irregularly aid. the fact further that in their work I su 'creu the injury that will always limit my usefulness ’ as a speaker, all these things give rue a claim on the forbearance of my present can- gregation, should I fail to do full work at times, which I could not have on a new con- gregation, however, willing they were to ex- tend the forbearance. Weighing all these things in the balances of the sanctuary. I come to this Conclusion that thou gh at times the scales appear eVenly poiswl. and for a few days to incline towards my leaving my present charge, yet in the face of the written tensions and commissioners plead. age, from Uhatsworlh, I am inclined to remain a while longer at my post, if the Presbytery so order it. I am strengthened in this resolution by the belief to which I am inclined, that as a rule the pastoral oilice is a permanent one, changes to be only in exceptional cases. I an) strengthened also by the consideration that though a wide door. and an inviting door, adoor that I wish I was free to enter in is opened before me, yet it does not appear that the door is shut be- hind me. There is a call from strangers to go away, but from the same number of ple on the ground of sound years snow- edge, there is a call to remain. And lastly I am strengthened in my decision by the consideration that it is always safest in com. peting cl has on one‘s service to choose the part that demands the greatest persmnl sacrifice. One thing is sure that of this mind was our Master, and that where two roads met he chose the road of sacrifice and sull'ering 1 1 l l i flit; that it involved in n vnconoymnpocinlly if it is long. My people know nothing about this ; they have never been vacant. There are peculiarities about the Chatsworth con- gregation 'tlmt no one knoWs better than the pastor. l sonntimeu think a vacancy might do them good; that a new voice in the pulpit would arouse them ; but it might issue in the other way.
