According to appointment. Rev. E. Bosworth, was present and delivered an address in tho Baptist Chapel, FleRher- ton, un Thursday last. Those who were in attendance were privileged to hxar a clear, instructive and intensely inter- esting addreea, relating to a work that is surely not of secondary importance to the Christian community, viz: The Cos- pel work in Quebec. Mr. Bosworth is well able to interest and instruct an aud- ience in dealing with this subject, for be- sides a good voice and delivery, he has also a wide experience, through imme' diate contact with tho conditions and needs of the people of whom ho spoke. "To see Roman Catholicism in her true colors," says Mr. Bosworth, one must go to Quebec. In Ontaiio we do not see her as she is, for it is one of tho fjmtures of her policy to adapt herself to her sur- roundings, with thm always in mind, however, namely : Tho supremacy of the Church. The speaker exhibited Mure his audience several I itt 1 articles, worn and used in worship by tho r-mian catho- lics. Amongst others was a scapulu made of brown cloth, to be worn n the person, the wearing of which, together with a re- petition of prayers adilriu.t to Sr. Anne, insure safety to the wonrer 'nun physical or moral harm. Few of us, perhaps, in Ontario, realize to what extent the spirit of idolatry is rooted in tho minus and nearts of our fellow country men, the French-Canadians in Quebec. When wo hear uf a mother bringing hei .lying child t.> the cold graven intake of Si . Aniit>, (mother of Virgin Mary,) thut Mie> shadow of the saint may fall upon her and affect a cure, wo are lead to ex- claim, are those things done in our own country and in one of Canada'* olileat provinces ! And what in t'.e r ,nedj i Light m the darkne ' I . /.m does not cast out devils, but the .Spirit of God. Nothing but the and power of God's Spirit in thu pm.r R. C's. heart can cast down and break the grin- ning dragon act up there, and give li'ht and liberty to the darken*.! mind. Let us give Quebec thu gospel. Os WHO WA Taut*
