be delayed. The glory of God and the salvation of man forbid delay. Souls are perishing; time is flying; death is hastening. Of the uncertainty of life, which has so often been enforced upon us, we have been affectingly reminded the past year by the sudden and unexpected departure of the Rev. Dr. Wisner,* who had been for twelve years a wise and efficient Director of this Institution, and who, in the midst of life, was called from a sphere of abundant labors and extensive usefulness, to serve and enjoy his Redeemer in the world of glory. Could he address us on this occasion, how would he quicken and urge us forward to the discharge of duty! With what ardor and energy would he speak to us on the spiritual necessities of man, and the importance of this Society! May we possess his spirit and zeal, and imitate his devotedness and industry in the cause of God, and the world's conversion. The servants of Christ in quick succession are passing from the stage of action. "Our fathers where are they? and the prophets, do they live forever?" Who will not apply himself to the great work of raising up spiritual reapers for the harvest of the earth; while the solemnities of dissolving nature, the retributions of the final judgment, the blood of Calvary, and the worth of undying souls, press to immediate, untiring and agonizing efforts.
