2*^. •. e >. » * i T. i c 'A PACIFIC CHRISTIAN MESSENGER. THURSDAY. Praying in the Night Watches. The Laughter of the JKbleu.- I am not surprised at David’s pray ing to. God in the night-watches; at his rising from his bed, and ascending to the roof of his house, and, when the mighty lieart of the city was still and the mountains round about JeAsalem were sleeping in the calm brilliancy of an eastern night, that he should gaze with rapture on the sky, and pour forth such a beautiful psalm of praise , as “ When I consider the heavens, the work of thy-fingers,” etc. The night is more suited to‘prayer than the day. 1 never wake in the middle of ,the .night-without feeling induced to commune with God. One faels brought more into contact with " him. The whole world around us, we .think, is aleep. But the great Shep herd of Israeljslumbers not, nor sleeps. He is awake, and.so are -we ! We feel, in the solemn and silent night, alone with God And then there is every thing in the circumstance to lead one « to pray. The past is often vividly re called. The, voices of the dead are . hoard, ami their forms-crowd around you. No sleep can bind. them. The . night seems the time in -which they ihould hold spiritual communion with man. The future, too, throws its dark sliadow over you—the night of the • " 'rave, the certain death-bed, the night in which no man can work. And then everything inakc.s such an im- jiression on the mind at night, wliyn the brain susceptible. The low sough •• «»f the wind among the trees ; the roar- "ing br wtlf whíth'óf some neighboring stream ; the baric or liowl of the dog; " tEe general jnipressive" silence--all tend to sober and solemnize the'mind, , and to Mrce it from the World and its -vjiriities, which .then seem .¿sleep, to God, who alone can uphold and de fend it.—NoTnutn M’Lwd. 4 On this subject Rev. De Wit Tal mage concludes a sermon thus: , The next laughter I shall mention as being in the Bible is the laugh of God’s condemnation. “ He that sit- teth in the Heavens shall'laugh." Again: “ The Lord will laugh at him.” Again: “ I will laugh atdiis calamity/’ With such demonstration will God greet every kind of great sin and wickedness. But men build up vil lainies higher and higher. Good men alyiost pity God because he is so schemed against by men. Suddenly, a pin drops out of the machinery of wickedness, or a secret is revealed, the foundation begink to rock. Fftially the whole thing is demolished. What is the matter ? I-will tell you what the matter is. That, crash of ruin is only the reverberation of God’s laugh ter. - ■ Ou wall street there are a great many good men and a great many fraudulent men. A fraudulent man there says; “ I rnehn to have my mill ion.” He goes to work reckless of honesty and he gets his firat $100,000. He gets after awhile Lis 200,000. After-awhile, he has 500,000. “ Now he sayff/’l have only one more move to make an J I shall have my million.” He gathers up all his resources, he makes that one last grand move, and he hat not enough money of his own left to pay the ten cents of the Broad way stage on his way home. People cannot under tand the spasmodic re vulsion. Some say it was a sudden turn in Erie Railroad stock, or in Western Union," or in Illinois Centra . Some said it was Jay Gould. Some said it was Cornelius Vanderbilt. Some said it was Daniel Drew; They all guessed, wrong. I will , tell you what it was. “ He that sitteth iu the Heaven laugfrs.”—Ax.
