a. m. Prom Uniontown to Pittsburgh, to my mind, as logical as any of those I listened to in my boy and young man days. In listening to the discourse, we could but sigh for the good bid days, when under such sermons, the very walls would resound with "amens" of our fathers. Where are the Methodist men and women of those days, who were so filled with the spirit, that if they held their peace, the very bricks in the walls would cry out.

Are Methodists ashamed of the usages and the religion of their lathers? Are they afraid that the world would call them a peculiar people zealous of good works? Are they better educated now than then Do they not know that a good hearty "amen" helps the preacher to preach, and the people to open their ears to the sound of gospel truths? I want to say that every intelligent, thoughtful person who heard that sermon must have been convinced of the necessity of being born again, converted, saved from sin. Let me congratulate my Methodist friends in their having such a Godly minister, and advise them to be co-laborers with him. I will go back to my home with pleasant recollections of my visit to Mon leave. a. ra.

A VISIT FROM A GOOD OLD METHODIST BROTHER WHAT HE 8AW WHAT HE THOUGHT ABOUT IT. Editor Monongahela Republican. Will you give a little space in the Daily to a few random thoughts by one who was born in Williamsport, spent his boyhood days roaming the adjacent hills and valleys, hunting rabbits in Wickerham's thicket, (3d ward,) or fishing for rock bass and sunfish in Polly Ballou's hole" on Pigeon Creek, or getting flogged in the old log school house that stood at the base of the hill, just under the old grave yard; or spending the Sabbath day, under protest, sleeping under the teachings of that good old Dr.

Ralston, in the little brick church on the hill. What a change has there not been in your city since those days? No, I will not undertake to note them; suffice it to say there are very few land marks left. On last Sabbath evening, November 19th, passing the place where a few years ago John, Henry and Katie Sha-fer lived I found the small brick house with its front garden of flowers, whose perfume scented the air for squares, and the vegetable garden that was envied by all the gardeners in the village, had given way to the large church edifice of the M. congregation of your city. As the large fine toned bell was I calling the congregation of worshippers I took the privilege of entering.

What a contrast it presented to the frame edifice in which the first Methodists worshipped on the bank of the river, just below where the Tailroad depot now stands. The fine frescoed walls and ceilings, stained glass windows, large chandelier pendent in the centre of the auditorium, with its sixteen gas jets, gas lights along the walls, in front of the pulpit, and the organ gallery. I feared for a time that there would be a slim audience, but soon there was a well filled church. Just before services commenced thirty to forty fine looking young men, each wearing a unique collar, emblematic of some association, as I supposed, entered and occupied four or five fron seats. As soon as these were seated a few voices in Ine organ loft began singing some kind of a dirge, and I concluded that a member of the order had died recently and there would be a funeral sermon preached on this occasion.

After the singing, a hymn was announced from the pulpit, well read by the minister and well sung by the choir to a very familiar tune. By the way of parenthesis, let me say the architect of this church made a sad mistake when he placed the choir-gallery in the back part of the room. A choir should alwavs face the congregation, if it is desired to have congregational singing, and this is always desirable. Every pew should be supplied with a book-rack and hymn book, with a copy of the Old and New Testament. All the people should be urged to sing, but how is a stranger to sing without a book? 1 saw none in the pews, neither was one offered me.

Singing cannot be well done, or with satisfaction to either the congregation or choir if the leader cannot be seen by the audience. As well might the minister preach to the back of his hearers, as the choir to sing at their backs. But to the'services: After the singing a yery sensible prayer was offered in a zealous manner by the minister; a verse was then sung by the choir, and whilst it was, perhaps, well enough performed, the sentiment of the poetry was in no way in keeping with the first hymn, the prayer or the subject of the discourse. It should always be the study of the leader of musio to keep the same sub ject before the minds of the audience. After singing another hymn, the minister talked in a very happy manner, for perhaps 8 or ten minutes, addressing himself to the young men of the Order.

From his talk, I learned it was not "a funeial," but these young men, formed for a proper purpose, had mere ly come to attend divine service in a body, which struck me as very commendable; and I thought if all young men would do this there would be no fears for the future of this land. Wi sh- log the young men God speed, he took for his text: "Ye must be born again." During his elucidation of the subject, my mind was carried back to the prim itive days of Methodism in Western Pennsylvania, I imagined myself a boy again listening to the oratory of a Basoom, or the voice of "old man elo quent' James G. Sansom; the thunder of Samuel Brookunier, the logic of Chai. Elliot, or the silver tongue of Charles Cook, These have all tone to receive their crowns. I wish to say without flattery, that the service of last Sabbath evening, was ONE PRICE CLOTHING WONDERFULLY 1,0 Arc the prices we am naming on many lets of MEN'S BOYS' Suits, Overcoats, and Pantaloons.
