Moon of Tacoma owns a valuable relio in tbe sbape of a copy of tbe Ulster Coauty Gazette, of Kings ton, N. J., published in January, 1800, a few days after tbe funeral of Presi dent George Washington. .Almost tbe entire paper is devoted to General Washington, and it gives tbe follow ing aooonnt of tbe ohsequies: "Washington Entombed. "Georgetown, Va., Deo. 20, 1799. Ou Wednesday last tbe mortal part of Washington tbe Great tbe father of bis country and tbe friond of man was consigned to tbe tomb with solemn honors and with fuueral pomp. "A multitude of persons assembled from many miles around at Mount Vernon, tbe choice abode and last res idence of the illustrious obief.

About tbe middle of the oofflu 'Glorio Deo,' and on the silver plate, 'General Washington departed this life on tbe 14th dav of December, 1709. Age 68.' "Between 3 and i o'clock the sound of artillery from a vessel in tbe river thing minnte gnns awake afresh our solemn sorrow. The oorpse was moved.

In tbese years tber-j bas been at work a subtile influence of evil by which the power of prayer has been sadly discounted. This talk about tbe reflex influence of prayer, coupled with tbe influence of materialism aud ntili tariaosim, bas made many ministers pigmies in tbe realm of prayer. True, prayer bas its beneficial reflex in fluence, but living too much in the past tends to disqualify for tbe present. He who lives near to his Lord bas provon again aud again that God hears and answers prayer, as in tbe foliat ing cases viz. Catherine of Sienna, George Mnoller, Hudson Taylor and Charles U. Finny and others. Tbe first night following tbe con version of Father Cbiniquy be spent iu prayer. 'I be next day be preached and a thousand souls were woo. A Baptist minister, daring a pastoiate of 11 years, received some into tbe oburcb every communion service, through the prayers of a Buffering saint. Mr. Spur geon said "I have no conOdence iu tbe polished literary effort to bring about a revival, but I have all confidence in tbe old saint who could weep ber eyes out because men are lost." "Prayer 4s appointed to convey tbe blessings God designs to give." With joyful communion it opens tbe morns first honr and with trnstful repose closes tbo last at night with tbe same blesstul communion. , Prayer climbs tbe ladder Jacob saw. It touches the ear and heart cf tbe Omnipotent and brings tbe needed equipment for ser vice. As a minister prays in faith and understanding and importunity so ho prevails iu power to win souls. If more time was given to prayer and less to dollars, especially in the doubtful methods often used to obtain them, there would be more of dollars aud souls to encourage men and please God. Ten hours is usually given to temp oral thiugs while cne is spent with purpose to win souls. Is this God's way? Or did Jesus say, "Seek first tbe Kingdom of God and tbese things shall be added?" See Matt. 6, 25-31. Our Presiding Elders formerly were almost all flaraiug Evangelists, kind ling the Are of revival where ever they went but this is so far, changed that a soul-winner ainoug them is almost un known and often they cannot stay even topreaob once, but can only look after financial matters. And tbe same is also trne with tbe Bishops, as a whole, and with such human leadership what wonder if the body partake of tbe same spirit as tbe bead. God grant that all may partake more folly of and pattern more fully after, the Great Head of the oburcb. I care not bow distant, or bumble the Held, or diffloult the problem, or severe tbe conflicts, tbe man who bas God's commission to preaob tbe Ever lasting Gospel is the King's messenger with tbe King's message. Aud greater than earthly Kings, or mighty war riors, Qr discoverers of new worlds is the man used of God to win never dy ing souls to Jesus Christ: And one reason why so many ministers fail of reaohiug meu is beoause they fail to understand tbe magnitude of their commission. "They that are wise shall shine as the brightness of tbe firmament; and tbey that turn many to righteousness as tbe stars forever, and ever." Dau. 12, 3. , In an important sonse a true mini ster of Christ is a discoverer of im mortal souls, one of which is of more value than teu thousand worlds. Wes ley and Wellington were cousins, but vastly different. The latter fought battles, bathed the earth in tbo blood of his fellow men, caused children and widows to weep in bitterness of sorrow over their absent dead, and wrapped homes and cities in flames, lhe for mer, who duriug his lifetime was de spised by tbe rich and great in earthly things, aud was turned out of the oburohes, won seventy thousand soul" to Christ, and exerts, today, a greater influence in the world than any other religious leader of modern times.

The man who has not a high con ception of tbe call and office of the christian ministry cannot apeak with authority. Here is the secret of many a man's failure. He is not sure of his oomnission. He has little confidence and knows not where to oast bis re- j lianoe.
