REV. J G. GREENHOUGH, M. A.

The Australian Christian World, in a lengthy notice on Rev. J. G. hough, M.A., president c:f the Free Ohurch Council of Great Britain, and a celebrated Baptist preacher and lecturer, now visiting New Zealand, pays: —" Mr Greachpugh has a large share uf humour in his composition, which contributes ro tmall part in making him si populir as a lecturer. It comes uut in ail ha says, and often so unexpectedly, and in such varied forms, that ir, flows in constant ripples over his ■oarers. It is only fair to fay that Mr Gretnhougti does not indulge in humour simply to please. He rather uses it aa flood-water on the tide of which he sends home his bast thoughts, and makes them lodge in mind and heart after the mure flood tide of humour has receded." All arrangement-! have now been c.mpleted for Mr Gre mhough's lecture at New Plymouth, full particulars of which appear iu another column. His broad-minded views and his love for all the Christian churches commend* his utterances to all these who r ally round the flig of the evangelical faith. Ee says he is never hippier than when standing on a broad p'atrorm addressing all classes of Christians.
