Rev. Edward Abbott addressed the St. Paul's Society last evening He said that whenever he is asked to address the Society there seems to be one subject which he must speak on rather than any other - the Christian ministry. Men may never become noted ministers but they can be sure that in this profession as in no other they can be great comforters, in the Scriptural sense of the word. This meaning denotes "helpers" by action rather than by mere expression of sympathy. The Holy Spirit is the Comforter not only by telling truths but by really strengthening and upholding them.
