Rev. Joba Hall in New York Ledger. The ides ofa minister, who, as Ilearn from } the papers, has $100,000 @ year, being con- cerned about the struggles of daily tollers, may seem ridiculous, Therefore a few sentences may be put down toshow that communion in meted ‘With the laborers is not out of the ques jon, I belong toa class of men whose Incomes are notlarye. A laboring man at $2 a day has over @ year, and ig not Vound lo live und dress as are” mibisters. Now let any intelligent laborer find out just bow much the income of thousands of ministers in the United States is above $600 a year, It may help him to oon- feutment. For the opening years of my minis- try I had not so much as tuat,and I was among People who often needed some of it. It has been my lot 1o Le in contact with hard Working peuple all my life, in their trying limes, in their confidence,I'think, and in a Pusition to Know more about them than, in iany cases, they know of another. Anyone Who imagines thata minister happening to have wealthy people in uis charge is tar re- hioved from the pour, is mistaken.
