CJMBBH TBxr.-Behold, to obey is better than aicrtflca-tsamuel 15:22. It is now some years sinca Saul was solemnly inaugurated as King of Israel,and Samuel tittered his farewell. Meanwhile fhral has gained numerous victories, and is aeemlngly secure in his possession of the throne. He began well. He was brave in war, prompt and energetic in action, zeal- ous' for the honor and well-being of the nation, and earnest in promoting its relig- ions life. Bu t he did not, in all respects, bold out. More and more he showed him- Mlf impulsive, reckless, headstrong, and forgetful of the commands of God. In the •fferingof a burnt offering at Gilgal, he deliberately disobeyed the divine command (13; 13). And it was then and there that Samuel first, and privately, forewarned him that, for his ein, the kingdom should be taken from him and transferred t o /CITATIO N FO B F1XVAE.

DOBIE, Surrogate. xn e BUDBumce o i JUS excus< fold, (a) It was not he, but <t who had transgressed; he shift upon others. So the ordinary God's promises and threatenings are alike conditional. Had Saul truly re- pented at Oilgal, and thenceforward Moved faithful in h\x obedience, no doubt lute sin would have been forgiven. The kingdom might have been established in his hands. But he did not repent. And now his transgression is repeated; and in Bttoh a way as to show that self-will Is his master. Brought to a fresh'test, he shows so utter a disregard of the divine commands that the sentence against him is confirmed beyond recall. Having rejected God he is himself rejected from being king (15: 23, In these verses we have, 1. A false claim' of obedience. — The Amalekites were old-time enemies of Israel. They were a wandering race, descendants, i t is supposed, of Ikati's grandson Amalek. They roamed over the desert to the south of Palestine toward Egypt. Like their modern descendants, the Bedouins, they were untamable robbers and plunderers; the first to attack the Israelites after the escape from Egypt, and always ready to league with others to harass them. God had early enjoined their extermination, and sow a special command to this effect has been laid upon Saul. Going out against these doomed enemies, Saul takes it upon himself to obey in part, and in part to disobey. The \ban\ was pat upon both the Amalekites, and also all that pertained to them. But what he does to to destroy the people—not absolutely all, but all whom he overtakes—and to tare Agag, their king, and the best of their •heepand oxen and fatlings and lambs, alive. Then, having ' 'set him up a place, •* or monument of the victory, he comes down to Gilgal. It is here that Samuel lnds him; and that, like one coasoions of milt, Saul greets the prophet with feigned pleasure, and ostentatiously protests that be has \performed the commandment oi the Lord.\ Just what Saul does is to put, partial obedience for entire obedience, and to flatter himself that this will answer. He does so much as he pleases, and leaves the rest alone. How many of us do the same ? The easy, agreeable things are done; but hardships, crosses, things which involve earthly loss, the surrender of pride, the •ubdning of passion, are left undone. 2. A hollow excuse for disobedience.— The short, sharp question of Samuel at once disproved the olaim of Saul. He had not performed the commandment of the ' lord. But, like most convicted persons, lie bad an excuse. The substance of his excuse was two- but 'the people,\ shifts the blame _ , Unary sinner now aays: \It was not I, but the circumstances fa which I found myself, which really did Che wrong.\ (d) Then the purpose and motive of the act was good. The sparing of the best of the sheep and oxen was for a \sacrifice unto the Lord.\ Was not this •Ten better than the proposed slaughter ? But plausible as Sanl's excuse was, it was altogether hollow. Taking him \when he vi s little in his own sight,\ God had made Mm king that he might govern the people. He was to rule, not they. A specific oom- mand having been laid upon him, it was Ids business to obey; not to submit the di- •ind will to their pleasure. The blame of disobedience could not be shifted upon them. Then, as to the proposed \sacri- fice,\ it was a cheap way of serving God . and getting a feast; since the flesh of ibank-offerings was, given back to the of- ferers for a sacrificial meal. They would save their own sheep and oxen, and yet xender the usual service and secure the de- aired feast. There was no sincerity or troth in an j part of the excuse offered. Agag was not spared from compassion, for there was no pretence of that, but most likely to grace the triumph. 3. Excuses swept away, and judgment announced.—To the remonstrances and ar- guments of Samuel, Saul replied only to repeat his false pleas; emphasizing the purpose of the people to offer a sacrifice. Note, in passing, the phraseology of the twenty-first verse; the spoil was for a sac- rifio \unto the Lord thy God.\ Did Saul perceive that ne was himself drifting away from God? Or did he mean to hav< Samuel suppose that the sacrifice was U please him; as now men imagine that they compliment the minister by going to church And helping in Christian work? Again Samuel responded with'a search- ing, withering question. \Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sac- rifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord ? To obey is better than sacrifice.\ It was as if he had said: \God has laid a com- mand upon you, and instead of obedience you propose a sacrifice;\ can God be pleased with such a substitution ? It is, sometimes inferred from this, and kindred passages in the soriptures (Ps. 51: 16, Mioah 6: 6), that the sacrifices were worthless, and that God took no pleasure in them under any circumstances. But nothing of this is here, or elsewhere, im- plied. The thing denounced was the sub- stitution of the one for the other. It was thus that Samuel showed the kin, that his conduct was the expression of i determination to do his own pleasure. Tc this had he at length come. It was a poini reached not all at once. Saul had had great mercies. When he was obscure and tittle in his own eyes, God had made him king,, and put his own Spirit in his heart. When he began to be proud and self-willed and disobedient, he had forewarned him, But now the divine patience is exhausted, and sentence desoends upon him: \Be- cause thou haBt rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king. 4. Unavailing repentance.—It was un- availing for the simple reason that it was insincere, Saul did now confess that he had Sinned; that he had feared the people wher he should have feared God; and had obeyed their' voice when he should nave obeyec bis. But the confession was not voluntary it was wrenched from him. More than that, it was not made to God, ana for the sin as against him. It was Samuel's par don, not God's, which he craved.

THE A R Y O u HAGERTY k MCCAFFREY, The amount of new business transacted during the past year, $62,250,000, exceeds the largest busi- ness ever done by any other Company in one year, The Society, In 1873 ^ In 1879 la 1881 In 1882 $21,440,213 Insurant 26,502,541 \ 35,170,805 \ . 46,189,096 \ 62,250,000 \ ic reasons for the increased patronage received by the Society during the paBt five years are: 1st. The fact that the percentage and amoun if its surplus over its liabilities, according to th* 8tate Insurance Reports (four per cent, valuation) are larger than in any other one of the five larges life insurance companies. 2d. The percentage of dividends earned foi pollcy-holdew, according to the same Reports, la now, and has been for the last five years, greater than in any other one of these companies. 3d. The Society issues a plain and simple con- tract of insurance, free from burdensome conditions and technicalities, INCONTESTABLE AFTER THREE YEARS. 4th. In the event of death, a policy which has become incontestable, is paid immediately upon the receipt of the proofs of death with a legal re- lease of the claim, thus affording pecuniary relief U the family as quickly as if the amount were in c Government bond, and avoiding the annoying dela; of weeks and months, and sometimes years of v~ atious litigation, which may have experienced other companies. 6th. The popularity of the Society's tontine sys- tem of insurance;—which provides full insurance in case of death, and gives the greatest return for the money paid by the policy-holder if he lives with more advantageous options to meet an insur- er's need at the end of the term, than any other form of policy ever devised.
