PREFACE. THE Sermons in this volume were, with a few exceptions, preached several years ago, and have been prepared for the press from notes written after their delivery; this will account for the brevity of some, and for the absence of elaboration in all. They are printed in answer to the long and oftrepeated request of many who heard them, and are now sent forth to the public in the hope that, through the Divine blessing, they may be of some use to those who read them.
