Revivalist's Peril. Narrow Escape from Being Thrown Over a Cliff. }1r Evaln Robertsi, the revivalist, has. had a narow escape from death. When he was, in a conveyance near Liverpool the horse boiited'.and dashed towards a steep cliff. To. a vert: disaster, the driver pulled the horse intio a ooail cart. Mir Roberitis was thrown out, and the wheel of the, cart wellllt over his leg. Fortunately he, escaped with slight injuries. For some time the accident, which IOccUtrDeld on Thursday, was kept- se-crelt at Mr !R'Oibea.-ts,' S request. lit seems that: Mr Roberts, who is on a visit to Liverpool, was by his own, desire taken -out, to West T-Cirby by the Rev J. Williams, and they called on a well-known medical gentleman, Dr McAfee, who takes great interest in evangelistic work. Afterwards the doctor drove rMr Robert's and Mr Williams to Hilbire Island, a small island at the moutlh of the Dee, the oniJIy tetlllanlt of which is Gapt., Lewis -Jones., kelepelr of the telegraph station. Whein the return, journey was commenced, Mir Roberts joined Mr Jones in his. trap, w hillslt Mr- Williams took his. pliace ini the .doctor's trap. Almost immediiately after the start the accident occurred. The horse attached to the trap in Which Mr Roberts salt became restive, and dalshed towards a siteep cliff a few hundred yards- away. Realising the danger, Mr Jones guided the -runaway horse into an empty coal cart that wais standing between ,them laind: the sea. The forcie o.f the collision smashed the taap, and Mil" Roberts wa's thrown, out on his aide. Then the horsie attached, to the coal cart grew restive, and the wheel of (the cart woenlt over Mr Roberts's left leg. Th-e doctor amd Capt. Jones, promptly (raised the sufferer and placed him on some planks close by. Determined to Preach. When Mr Roberts opened' his eyes he smiled and said, "Ah, it is only another of his (Satan'si) old tricks; buit he has failed again." 'He was then, taken -to Dr McAfee's house. The doctor suggested that he had1 better not go to the Cres- cent Chapel: that evening, but Mr Roberts slalild he must go. The Rev T. Williams remarked that ithe physician said, "No." '"But the. Gireat PihyslkianSiays I airn to go," declared Mr Robe-rts-and he went. The doctor accompanied the partly to the meeting,, and; no one else present besides the doctor and Mir Wil- Hams knew tihait the evangelist who swayed the multitude had a few hours. previo-ulsy had a miraculous escape from dearth.

Civic Reception of Mr Evan Roberts in Liverpool. Mr Evan Roberts visited the Liverpool Town HaJill on Friday afternoon at the invitatioin of the 'Lord Mayor (Mr John Lea), and was pre- sentted; to a number of the Welsh members of the Citiy Council and niiiniisite-psi of various de'- nominations. The latter included the Revs Dir John Wiatislon ("lian, MaoLaren"), Dir Aked ({Bap- tist), J. Kemp Thome (recttor of Liverpool), and J. Jackson (Wesleyan;). Afternoon tea wais served. Mr Roberts;, who looked well, and was apparently in excellent spirits-, chaNted: with Dr Watsom. The -Lord, M ayor. on behalf of those present, and oin behalf of the. city, extended a cordial welcome to. Mr Robert's, whom he described as "our esteemed guest- whom we welcome to. the city asi one, who has- at heart the best interestsi of the citizens, and asi one who is endeavouring to the utmost of his, power Ito shed a Messing wherever he goes." In conclusion, he referred tio1 Mir Roberts as- '"that dervoted servant- of God, who- has- heen the means, through Divine Provi- dence, of bringing 510 much blessing to many (hOlmels. (Applause,:). This is; the first- occasion- upon: which M'r E,va,n, Roiberts has been- officially recognised, in any tOIWDi he hais' visited. The HJerv Griffith, Ellis:, the Rev John Wil- liams '(Prince's-road), inlr Councillor Heinry Jones., and Mr Councillor1 J. Harrison Jones were among the gathering at the Tlownl H-a-lil, cutis ide which large crowds assembled to wit- ness: the arrival and departure of the- missioner.

A Meeting Under a Cloud. Prayers for Forgiveness. As' early as two o'clock on Monday afternoon people began to congregate -outside W-est- minster-road Church, which quickly filled from floor to ceiling when the dtoors were opened. Crowds- remtained outside, and over- flow meetings- were helld: in Anfield-road Wtelsh Presbyterian and Great Mersey-street Congre- gatioina-l! clhurchies:. At the principal gather- ing the Rev Gwiilym Rete s opened the proceed- ings:, and, without direction of any kind, the ,meeting fonthiwiith took its- usual course. The prayers andi praise' proceeded without the slightest halt. Tfhe; missioner arrived shortly after seven o'olbck. For a time the enthusiasm seemed to have expen,de,d itself. A -reverend gentleman, ,s,aved the, situation by leading off the singi-ng with "Mlarchog Iesu" ("March, Jesus, trium- phant"). iSltill the meeting had not recovered its fe,r,vour;. There was, an eviden,t expectation for Evan Roberts to ris-e, but he remained silentj and an hour elapsed before he rose- Opening the. Bible and pausing a,whil,e, hie said: "No; I cannot read this. Why? Some of you know why. Could- we rise to our feet and say it is clear between us, and our fellow- men., and with Heaven-? No, we cannot. That is why I ami unable; to read this verse." WihtiTlsit the missioner wa's still on hiiisi feet a main prayed, that they might forgive each other. Áln, attempt to sang was' stopped by the ■missioner,. who. -said, "There is, something greater at faulit. When I came iin. I felt it, and the atmosphere has been loaded with it for the last hour." An earnest prayer was offelred by the Rev W. 0. Eva-n-s that brotherly Itove mighlt- continue. A man in. tJle body of the chapell co-munenced to. sing. "You must not sing, my friend," came from the missioner. "'Thisi is, strange to me," he further remarked. At th-iisi moment the Rev W. O. Jones, of the Free Church of the Welsh, rose and prayedi—|C<iO Lord, strengthen us to- stoop to Thy will. Remove all stubbornes-s and pridle from amongst us, and strengthen us to do better. Forgive everything that we have done to anybody. 'Ti wy-ddost yr ho 11 helymltion ■("Thiou- kno west the, wholie trouble"). Strengthen others to forgive—forgive—every- thing they supposed was out of its place,. Melt OUT hearts1, 0 Lord. Re-move every difficiuflity that prevents: us working together, and exalting the name of our Siaviour. Create in us- a greater zeal for the salivation of the world, and grant us, more of Thy spiritt. Forgive UiSI our sins." 'Prayers followed for ine removal of the dould that hindered the meet- ing, and for the spirit of forgiveness: to pre- vail. "Dloin',t be disheartened, friends; my ttongue is, tied to-night,, I can se'e," said the- missioner. "X am quite willing .for mine- to be tied if others are looslened." The Rev Jlolhn Williams did not "hink the 'Spirit of. the LQ;¡d was far from them. He -thought that ilt had been- a glorious meeting. He f equated the congregation to. repeat in the spirit of prayer the, text, "Create in me a clean heart, 0 God, and renew a right spirit within me," and; this was accordingly done. Afte,r a prayer from the Rev Hlamein Rees,the missioner again spoke. '"iSome of them mighlt wonder why God did not ramlove, the difficulty. He wanted to see how much they cared for His cause. He, had not hidden His face. He wia's there wiltlh, them,, and, if the fight was hard, they would be victors. Let them not find faults, but rathier, seek for a .place in which to1 bury -theim." Alfter further prayers, the missioner allowed the praise to con tin ue., and "Dioilclh I'dldio'o was sung. Again speaking, the mislSliolnffi' said that the. barrier wa-si .stilll there,, hut they were drawing nearer to Go-di, and, after that night they would draw still nearer. "(Bow -down, alii people," was then slUing at the request of tihe missioner. A number of converts were announced-, and the meeting closed with prayer. -Out'sidle the dietnse crowd: sang during the Avh'ole time the proceedings were going on within the chapel.

Bishop of St. Asaph on the Revival. Hundreds of persons wereuna-ble to gain ad- mis,sion to Rho'symedre Parish Church, near Ruab-on, on Sunday night, when the Bishop of IS:t,. Asaph held a confi-i'mation. There were 75 candidates, who included a father and mother and their three children-. The lesson. was read. by Sir Watkim Wynn, of Wynnstay. In the course of an. address the Bishop said that in Wales they had heard inuch of the present great religious awakening. Men's minds were being turned to the true life they should; live. They could not explain- how tihoSte great awakenings- came, but they undoubtedly cam, in God's good time. In all sucdi move- ments the power of prayer was predominant. lit was very easy to' talilc of religion, to have their feelings moved by -.ee-ing men and women sobbing under emotion, but that was not re- ligion. ^Religion was rather lea-ding the life of Christ, not putting on religion with their Sun- day clothes and locking it up all- t-hriougih the week .afterwards. Religion should1 dominate their dealings with their relatives., their com- panions in play, and the people they met in business. If they wanted to bring sinners, to the foot of the Cross it would not be dbne by grand phrases, and) eiloquenit speeches, but by the power of the, example of their lives, by the quiet influence of the Christian. temperament and life. If aIR: s!e,t such an example, they would be real ambassadors, of 'Christ.

Endeavourers and the Revival. Helps and Hindrances to the Movement. Convention at Llandudno. THE convention held alteiiniately every year boe. tween the Llandudno- and Oolwyn iBay branches 4 of the .ChTisitian Endeavour Union- was held at the English Baptist Church, Llandudno, on Wednesday aftern oon. The Rev W. Phillllipsi, B.A., 'Llandudno., pre- sided over a- fair gaifhteirriinig, he being a,cco.m- paniied on the- pllaitlform by (the Rev Thomas Lloyd;, of CoHwyn, iBJaJ'. The proceedings opelnedl -wilth la short service of intercessory prayer -in which men ainid WOIIDlelll took -part with. that freedom which is character- istic of revival meetings, and) this, was- not the onlly featiusre of the afternoon, which had mUlch ■in common wilth that great, miovemient. The 'Chairman thlein delivered a short dis- course on the -preparations necessary to run the race o-f a godlly life. Just as* of oilld, the Greeks underwent the most careful aind systematic tmaliniing fori the Olympic -sports- alt, Cbrintih, so was it incumlbent IUlpOIDI 'the Christian to, make simitar preparations'. Thley should allow IliO- thilng to hinder their progress. 'They slhüulld forget whiatev-er past successes that might have -attended thieir efforts, hut they wer-e at all time's justified in dloiimg so iif they felt any inspiration coming -from thait action. -Let itlheim nioit,, how- ever, (resit upon their oaa's beGauae they had achieved something creditable ini the past. Failures should also- be forgotten, because re- collection. of them tended to- -decrease their faith and Itlo dlamp thieir enthusiasm. Another im- portant point wats thaJt they should ait once dis- possess themselves: of "any weight which might- be keeping them) dOw(n," thus hindering their progress in; the Tace. "Dio-n't have too illlailllY sooiaffi, public, business:, nor even reliiigilou-s ein- gagemenfe," proceeded Mr Phillips. "I am afraid we have too. imany spiritual engagements, even—at least, those1 engagemerfts which for efver bring us out. before: tihei public gaze. There is no time given to gather QIll. the wom'dtous fruits: of quiet deliberation. We must hra ve tranquillity iof imdind-a kind of !re!sitfull irep,os,e in which we can search for the truth and enjoy its blessings." Ait this point Miss- Rowlands, of 'Lila(ild,u,dino,, sang-a sacred s'electiom very sweetly. Hindrances to the Revival. A paper contributed by 'Mr HtelrbeTlt Edwards, of Coliwyn ibay, on this subjecti, was read, in his unavoidable -absence, by a frim,d. wriiltelf dealt with the :maitttelr succinctly. All hindrances to- the good work was, he held, bound up iin the' one word "sin." It was God's wilili that imiam should be saved-, and the revival was rnothing but a gathering in of souls. What- eveu; fo'rm a hindrance to its progress to-o-k, it was the work of the devil. A fact: which had .recently iblelil brought vividly bdOlre them, was thlat there had been no life in the churches., and the is;iinneirs who. einteir,e,d them weme un- touched -and -uninfluenced in oonsiequence. To effect a change in that the IHio-ly :Spirit had come to their midst. t Amongst ithe, evil- influ- ence's in a church was- a spirit of -dissension ,amongst the memtbers; jealousy, suspicion,and feelings of dislike towards one another were other evils: which conduced to ill'-suicces-s. If there; was. no unity in a church, itihe Divine fire could not, burn in its midst. Another hin- drance was the neglect of the Hilhle study and prayer. Bible study was the veirv best stimulus- to prayer, and prayet was the one; gireat power which moved every barrier. Without prayer and (Bible study a revival was impossible- Yet a further evil was. the- 'bringing into the. Church of the -spirit of the Avovld in the shape of bazaars-, raffles, dramatic entertainments', and so o.n. The services iin the Tabernacle of old were characterised by a wonderful reverence,, and the commandment on that particular point had not be-en revoked. Again,, the spiriit of critic-ism imtrodiuced into Church work was calculated to ki,N: any revival work. P'-eople criticised the sermon, the singing, -and the prayers. How, therefore, could they be ex- pected. toi ,einjoy the blessings which tho,sle things might confer upon them? Another hin- drance was theiir habit of looking to man far everything, while' the- Giver .of -alll things- was; practically ignored. And perhaps the greatest hindrance of al-l- wa-si their failure to introduce the ChriSitialn teaching into a practical form in I their daily lives.. Christianity -was- nolt like a Sunday suit of clothes, which -could' be doffed and donned iati a given moment. Helps Towards a Revival. The congregation having joined in, a hymn., Miss iL,wi,s, Lloyd, of Llandudno-, gave, an in- spiring address- on "'Helps; towards; a revival." Baising he-r remarks on MMachi io, Miss Lilioyd pro-ceieded (that- to. bring iabouit a revival ilt mf,-anl', the bringing in of tithes, to the. storehou-sie. The tithes w,eire repentance, obe- dience, faith, constancy, and prayer, ,alnd' these were, to be the- próduots of each- Christian indi- vidually. Illustrating her observations with sound judgment, the -speaker kept, up the inter- est in her -subject- very effectively, -and! drove, home her lessons with an earnestness that could not faii in its appeal. ".Are -you willing for. the revival to, SIPT,e,a,d to ithe, .English churches Olandudno. questioned Miss Lloyd. "Are you willtti'ng if it costs you something?" T)f so you ■miusit commence1 paying in your tithes- at olll!ce. As. an example of what was wanted' ISlhie catted; the case of the '59 revival. "lOm that occasion, shie proceeded, '"there werre whole towns, in America and Ireland where every man and woman were converted, but that was only ,after. weeks of incessant; prayer, and lit is prayer we want to produce the. same result in our own country." A genlsral discussion fofllhowed upon the roe- marks .made by Miss Llloyd -and u, oin Mr iH. OBdwardte's paper. The meeting terminated wilth the -Benediction. After ftea a shoirt consecration meeting was- held, and this was followed1 by lapulblilc meet- .ing 'at sleven o'clock. The lif.itter was presidied over by the Rev J. Ediward-s,, Colwyn Bay, and the [.speakers; included Mrs Thomas, L.loyd, Col- wyn 'Bay; W. ill. lowers -ain,dl the; Rlev W. H. Towers, of the -.E. Union. Miss .11. A.
