SADI CARNOT PRESIDENT SADI CARNOT MY FIRST YEARS AS A FRENCHWOMAN I WHEN MACMAHON WAS PRESIDENT I was married in Paris in November, 1874, at the French Protestant Chapel of the rue Taitbout, by Monsieur Bersier, one of the ablest and most eloquent pastors of the Protestant church.

From this place they visited most of the valleys, went into all the families where Stephen Grellet had been, and had frequent religious conversation with the pastors and some of the people.

Their old friend, Professor Gaudin, took them to see several pastors, and other pious persons, and on First-day, the 17th, he and his family, with some other serious-minded individuals, joined them in their hour of worship at the inn.

On the 13th they went to Basle, where they conversed with most of the pastors, and several other individuals of religious character.

" At Castres, where they stopped on the 26th, they visited the Orphan House, and held intercourse with the pastors, and with a pious lawyer.

The evening of this day proved to be a memorable time: a considerable number were collected, among whom were several pastors and a number of young persons.

They spent another evening with a pious family, where several missionaries and pastors were present.

At Charleroi, where they arrived on the 22d, they enjoyed Christian association of the most interesting kind, especially with Pastors Poinsot and Jaccard, and with Marzial, who followed them from Brussels.

17.On our arrival at Mühlheim we received a visit from the three pastors resident here and in the neighborhood, along with Pastor Bochart, from Schaffhausen, whom we had known some years before.

Of this he was fully aware, but said, as they were mostly of the lower class, they had no room, and the pastors did not encourage such meetings.

We lost no time in sending to the Protestant pastors, one of whom kindly came to us in the evening, and we conversed till late.

He knows a great many of the pastors, and will give us letters of introduction to the little flocks in the Colonies and the Crimea.

And blessed ye, in silly pastors' sight, simple.

Nor did this arise from real poverty, but from indifference, sloth, preoccupation of mind about vain earthly concerns, and often also from egotism and spiritual death; for I saw neglect of this kind in churches the pastors and congregations of which were rich, or at east tolerably well off.

Mr. Roberts, when a young man, joined the Church at Llanbrynmair, began to preach under its sanction, became its pastor, sustained that office for thirty-six years, and is succeeded by his two excellent sons, Samuel and John, as co-pastors!

Congregational as well as Presbyterial Churches obtain pastors from this "school of the prophets.

I readily promised to comply, glad of an opportunity to address so many of the future pastors of the American Churches, who will occupy the field when emancipation is sure to be the great question of the day.

I had, however, before me the future pastors of about fifty churches, and two of the professors.

A wise man living like a drone, an old man not devout, Youth disobedient, rich men that are charity without, A shameless woman, vicious lords, a poor man proudly stout, Contentious Christians, pastors that their functions do neglect, A wicked king, no discipline, no laws men to direct, Are twelve the foulest faults that most commonwealths infect.

When the pastors and their flocks of the various competing churches passed on their way to services, the band was keyed up in G, and was parading the streets, so that the faith of the Tahitians was severely tried.

W.O. Emory became one of our pastors at Wesley.

If only duns could be pastors, and pastors duns!

If only duns could be pastors, and pastors duns!

People who set themselves up to be pastors and teachers must "learn in suffering" what they teach in sermon and book.

They were excellent men, well suited to their pastoral work, and did much good amongst their congregations; for it should be always remembered that a national church requires a sympathy and resemblance between the pastors and the flocks.
