ST. PETER'S.
The Rev. 11. Sommerville, of St. Peter's Presbyterian Church, took as his text yesterday Acts xxii. 28: "With a great sum obtained I this citizenshfp" he said thait many persons were so thoroug-My imbued with the idea oi' the advancement of Christ's Kingdom that they gave little attention to the duties of earthly citizenship. This was not how the Founder of Christianity acted or taught It was a fallacy that the Christian has nothing to do with1 the world, and should keep himself five from its affairs. On every hand there was room for reformation —in the Church, in the home, on the street, in commerce, and in our public institutions.
