The universe and its wondrous work- ing testified to the omnipotence of God. The unfolding of the trees and flowers and the change of the seasons, the storms of heaven told of the majesty of God; and the voice of the melancholy waves spoke of Him. God manifests Himself in our souls, and as to how He got there philosophers ‘dispute. Without God, the world would become self- ish, and every man would prey on every man. In every charitable act we did we manifested the giory of God. The sermon of Father Stafford was not a very long one, but ft covered a wide fleld of thought.
