While so many eminent preachers of the
aay are drifting away from the old fash

of wthodoxy. His subject is "Astray, bat

Within ninety years at the longest all
who bear or read this sermon will be in
eternity. During the next fifty years you
will nearly all be gone. The next ten yearn
will cat a wide swath among the people.
The year 18U1 will to some be the finality.
Soch considerations make this occasion ab
sorbing and momentous. ' The first half oi

Some man rises in the audience and be

My text takes us all in.- It starts behind

XIXCSTRATIOX FROM THE SHEPHERD'S LIFE.

oantry, and I Know some of the habits oi

sheep have k. me astray." Sheep get astray
ta two wayn. itber by trying to get into
ether pastun-, or from being scared by the
dogs. In the former way some of us got
.astray. We thought the religion of Jesus
Christ short, commons. We thought there
was better pHHturage somewhere else. We
' thought if we could 'only lie down on the
hanks of distant streams or nnder great
oaks ' on the other side of some hill we
Might be better fed.
We wanted other pasturage than thatj
which God through Jesus Christ gave our j
soul, and we wandered on and we wan-1
dared on, and we were lost. We wanted
bread and we found garbage. The further J
we wandered, instead of finding rich pas
tarage, we found blasted heath and sharp
er rocks and more stinging nettles. No
pasture. ' How was it in the worldly
(roups when . you lost your child? Did.
they come around and console you very,

who came into your house and sat up with
yoar darling child give you more comfort
than all worldly associations? Did all the

you in that day of bereavement so much

Sin has almost pestered the life oat of
some of you.' At times it has made you
cross and unreasonable, and it has spoiled
the brightness of your days and the peace
of your nights. There are men who have
been riddled of sin. The world gives them
no solace. Gossamer and volatile tbe world,
wbild eternity, as they look forward to it,
is black as midnight. They writhe under
the stings of a conscience which propones
to give do rest here and no rest hereafter;
and yet they do not repent, they do not
