Mr. Macmillan preached on “Man,†under the head- ings: What a man’s friends think of him, what he thinks of himself, what his enemies think of him, and what he really is. Opinions, and the real- ity were vigorously discussed. â€"â€"Rev. Mr. Manning was at Fenelon Falls and his pulpit was ï¬lled by Rev. John Garbutt of that village. in the morning Mr. Garbutt preach- ed about the Ark of the Covenant _ \from the words, “There I will meet with thee, and commune with thee n 1.4;; VA-vv above the mercy seat.†In the ark was the law, above it the Shekinah or divine presenCe. and between the law and the presence was the mercy seatâ€"the hope of oï¬enders against the law. and the place in which God and man meet for reconciliation. In athis discourse were the elements of a ï¬rstâ€"calss devotional sermon........... At night Mr. Garbutt’s text was, “Master speak to my brother that he divide the inheritance with me. " (‘hrist was speaking to the people of deeply spiritual things when a man in the crowd interrupted with the worldly request of the text.Christ refused his request. The idea was : Christ did not come to settle this and that dispute or solve this or that problem, but to lay down prinâ€" 2 ciples which when men have received them, will enable them to settle all disputes and solve all problems. Rul- es had failed; their number could not compass the whole of human conduct but by indwelling principle of rightâ€" eousness all conduct is made right at the main spring; Christ did not in- terfere “with the political and socihls iniquities of his. time. He Came to‘ wbrk not a revolotion but a reformâ€" - atioï¬â€˜.
