He Missed One Strong Point.

There was an amusing incident at the union meeting of the Presbyterian churches last evening. Charles G. Brundige prefaced his remarks by saying that through association one learns to imitate what others do, and though he had been sitting in the pulpit but an hour with clergymen he was inclined to follow then* example and preach an old sermon. Then the Bev. Dr. Green,-when it came his turn to speak, got up and gave the whole clerical game away by saying that Mr. Brundige had missed one point—he should learrPto preach an old sermon and say nothing about its antiquity, simply changing the text and trusting to the forgetfulness of the congregation not to recognize it.— Buffalo Courier.
