and the writer is often puzzled by several persons speaking at the same time.
In reporting speeches, the writer
should accustom himself to be several words behind the
speaker.
With rapid speakers he will often be necessarily behind, and, if he has not accustomed himself to
be so in his usual reporting, he will find some difficulty
in recovering lost ground.
A practised writer should be
able, in an emergency, to write twelve or fifteen words
behind the speaker.
218. The writing should not be too large; and outlines
that check the hand, and therefore lead to loss of time,
should be avoided. No exact size of the shorthand characters can be prescribed for all.

Exercise 64.
In this age of political freedom, men combine with confidence, and by continual efforts seek to promote the object for
which their combination is tunned. Jf unable to meet for
conversation, they can exchange views, by means of the
post, with comparative ease, and in comparatively little time
on the subject under consideration. After full contemplation, and all to xh.e contrary having been urged, they can come
to a conclusion concerning any matter with great conveniens
and without having to communicate personally. Even when
they do not conclude the discussion in which they are concerned by this means, the consequence is not serious.

Till-you learned Phonography, you-were, perhaps, to-someextent ignorant (of the) uses to-which-it-may-be turned toaccount and to-advantage. The time required to-learn-the
system you thought likely to-amount to-something considerable, and-the benefits to-be gained did-not appear enough
to-assure-you that-it-was worth the trouble.
To-be-able-towrite shorthand you considered would-be advantageous, but
you-could-not bring yourself to-believe you-eould master the
system. Was-not that so ? Depend upon-it, you-were todame for underrating your abilities. We-are-certain, forwe -have-reason to know, that none need despair of-success
in-Phonography.
What-can-be-the reason (of the) greatsale (of the) text-books if-it-is-not-the simplicity (of the)
system ? Wnen-we-think of-it. what-could-be more convincing?
The measures for-the-promotion of temperance which-havc
often been proposed in-the-press,
and which-have-been
brought, before Parliament, but which-have-not passed, are
numberless.
The compulsory abolition (of the) Liquor Traffic is a remedy which-is vigorously pushed forward by-tlie
United-Kingdom Alliance, which-is-no-doubt an influential
body, and whieh-is-not-only desirous of-closing public-houses
but averse to compensating their owners. Compensation is
a policy which -is-of ten discussed, which-is-sometimes designated a robbery (of the) rate payers, but which is die scheme
favored by-many statesmen, and which-is-thus entitled toconsideration.

dear friends, let-us endeavor to-extend our knowledge of the truth, which-will lead us to a fuller knowledge of
God, and a truer idea (of the) omnipoU nee of God, the omnipresence of God, and-the omniscience of God. Believers inBut,
my

the
brethren, as
as Christian

to-the Church
of Ireland, the Church of Rome or Roman Catholic Church,
the New Church or to-some other Protestant Church or Reformed Church, endeavor to show God's glory in-this-way
and prove to-those familiar only with-the ways of the world,
not-only the wisdom of God. but-that God is good and Qod is
great.
God's law and God's justice in the Divine gov< rnm< nt
of the universe, are clear to all children of God, and every
child of God to- whom the things of men are known, feels that
both in body and mind each fellow-creature is, in tin providence of God, directed through life. To both the just and the
unjust their daily bread is vouchsafed by the Divine Being
who reigns for ever and ever, the Almighty and Everlasting
God who at the last day shall judge the heart of man. Will
that-day be-one of eternal condemnation or eternal dam nation
to each one of us of everlasting misery or of everlasting life?
May the blood of Christ, who-is-now at the right hand of Qod,
the sacrifice (of the) just for the unjust, be-found, my fellowOh, my
sinners, a perfect plea for-thc quick and the dead!

works of tin law will not avail. Every penitent sinner who

Theymidst of life we-are in death, and-that
all should-be prepared for-the home described in the words
of our text. Our Lord, they believe blesses all true work in
Christ, whether of those-who profess the Protestant faith or
I'm!, staut religion, or those-who-are (of the) Catholic faith,
belong to-the Catholic Church and join in Catholic worship
in Roman Catholic sanctuaries, under a 'atholic priest, to Almighty Ghd, to-the Lord and Saviour, to the H.o\y-Spvrit of
God, and invoke the Virgin Mary.
Et-is-felt by-these that
Church principles, articles of religion, and-the relations of
Church and state are valuable only when-they promote our
Lord's glory and-the study (of the) WordofG-od. This study
should-not-be limited to-the Sabbath Day,to-the Sabbath school
or-the Sunday school.
Nor should-it be limited tc-theLord'i
prayer, participation in-the Lord's supper or even to family
prayer. The religion of Christ Jesus recognizes no holy place
but should-be practised everywhere, it is not nan-owed to-the
works ofthe law, but lor Jesus Christ's sah and-in-t he strength
(of the) cross of Christ, Christians euter on mission work tomake known the everlasting God.

5. 1.
This passage presents to us, in one view, the nature of our present
earthly stale, and the future object of the Christian's hope. The style
is figurative
hut the figures employed are both obvious and expressive.
The body is represented as a house inhabited by the soul, or the thinking part of man. Bat it is an "earthly house," a " tabernacle " erected
only for passing accommodation, and "to be dissolved ;" to which is
to succeed the future dwelling of the just in "a building of God, a
house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Here then are
three great objects presented to our consideration. First, the nature
of our present condition. Secondly, that succeeding state which is the
object of good men's hope. Thirdly, the certain foundation of their
hope; "we know, that if our earthly house be dissolved, we have a

building of God."

dwell in an "earthly house." Within this cottage of earth is
lodged that spiritual, immortal substance, into which God breathed the
breath of life.
So we are elsewhere saiil in Scripture to have "our
foundation in the dust," and to "dwell in houses of clay." During its
continuance in this humble abode, the soul may be justly considered as
from the full exertion of its

powers by many obstructions. It can perceive and act only by very
imperfect organs. It looks abroad as through the windowsof the senses;
and beholds truth as "through a glass, darkly." It is besel with a numerous train of temptations to evil, which arise from bodily appetites. It
is obliged to sympathize with the body in its wants: and it i< depressed
with infirmities not its own. For it suffers from the frailty of those
materials of which its earthly house is compacted.

discomposure of bodily organs is sufficienl to derange some of tin- highest
operations of the soul.
All tlie--e circumstances bear the marks of a fallen and degraded
state of human nature.
The man-ion in which the soul is lodged
corresponds so little with the powers and capacities of a rational immortal spirit, as gives ns reason to think that the souls of good men
were not designed to remain always thus confined. Such a state was

We
must observe in the first place, that the dissolution of the earthly
tabernacle at death, affords no ground for thinking that the soul at the

from what is sometimes found to happen at that period. The soul and

the maturity of their powers; and together both seem often to decay.
Such a shock is apparently suffered by the soul at death as at first
view might lead us to suspect that it was sharing the same fate
with the body. Notwithstanding this, there are clear proofs that
the body and the soul, though at present closely connected by Divine
appointment with one another, are, however, substances of different
and dissimilar natures. Matter, of which the body is composed, is
a substance altogether dead and passive, and cannot be put in motion
without some external impulse; whereas the soul has within itself
a principle of motion, activity, and life. Between the laws of matter
and the action of thought, there is so little resemblance, or rather
so much opposition, that mankind in general have agreed in holding
the soul to he an immaterial substance
that is, a substance the
nature of which we cannot explain or define farther than that it is
a substance quite distinct from matter. This being once admitted,
it
clearly follows that, since thought depends not on matter, from
the dissolution of the material part we have no ground to infer the
destruction of the thinking part of man. As long as by the ordination
of the Creator these different substances remain united, there is no
wouder that the one should sutler from the disorder or indisposition of

creature that would seem to have been made in vain. All tiie other
works of Ibid arc contrived to answer exactly the purposes for which
they were made. They arc either incapable of knowledge at all
or
they know nothing higher than the state in which they are placed.
Their powers are perfectly suited and adjusted to their condition.
But It, is not so with man. lie has every appearance of being
framed for something higher and greater than what be here attains.
He sees the narrow bounds within which he is here confined; knows
and laments all the imperfections of his present state. His thirst
for knowledge, his desires of happiness, ail stretch beyond his earthly
station.
Ho searches in vain for adequate objects to gratify him.
His nature is perpetually tending and aspiring towards the enjoyment
of some more complete felicity than this world can afford. In the
midst of all his searches and aspirations he is suddenly cut off.
He is but of yesterday, and to morrow is gone. Often in the entrance, often in the bloom of life, when lie had just begun to act
his part, and to expand his powers, darkness is made to cover him.
Can we believe that, when this period is come, all is finally over with
the best ami worthiest of mankind'/ Endowed with so noble an
apparatus of rational powers, taught to form high views and enlarged
desires, were they brought forth for no other purpose than to breathe
this gross and impure air for a short, space, and then to be cut off'
from till existence'/ All his other works God had made in "weight,
number and measure;" the hand of the Almighty artificer everywhere
appears. But on man, his chief work here below, he would, upon
this supposition, appear to have bestowed no attention; and after
having erected a stately palace in this universe, framed with SO much
magnificence, and decorated with so mucll beauty, to have introduced
man, in the guise of a neglected wanderer, to become its inhabitant.
Let us further consider the confused and promiscuous distribution
of good and evil in this life. The enjoyments of the world, such as
they are, are far from being always bestowed on the virtuous and
the worthy. On the contrary the bitterest portion is often their lot.
In the midsl of infirmities, diseases and sorrows, they are left to
drag their life, while ease and affluence are allowed to the ungodly.
I must ask if such an arrangement of things, owing to the ordination, or at least to the permission of Providence, be consonant to
any ideas we can form of the wisdom and goodness of a Supreme
Ruler, on the supposition of there being no future state. Hut as
soon as the immortality of the soul and a -tale of future retribution
are established, all difficulties vanish; the mystery is unraveled;
supreme wisdom, justice and goodness are discovered to be only concealed for a little while behind the curtain. If that curtain were
never to be withdrawn, and immortality never to appear, the ways

opinion that took its rise from the thin-spun speculations of some
abstract philosophers.
Never has any nation been discovered on the
face of the earth, so rude and barbarous, that in the midst of their
wildest superstitions there was not cherished among them some expectations of a slate after death, in which the virtuous were to enjoy happiness. So universal a consent in this belief, affords just grounds to
ascribe il to some innate principle implanted by God in the tinman
breast,
Had it no foundation in truth, we must suppose that the
Creator found it necessary, for tin' purposes of his government, to
carry on a principle of universal deception among his rational subjects.
Many of the strongest passions of our nature are made to have a clear
reference to the future existence of the soul. The love of fame, the ardent
concern which so often prevails about futurity, all allude to somewhat in
which men suppose themselves to be personally concerned after death.
The conscience-, both of the good and the bad, bear witness to a world
that is to come.

some secret anticipations and presages of what is
