PRAYER FOR EDITORS.

By Editor

The Evangelical Magazine says:

We have heard fewer prayers offered up to God on behalf of the editors of our Christian journals than for an other class of public men; and yet we know of no servants of the Church who more need to be upheld by the importunate prayers of their brethren in Christ. A Christian editor needs great wisdom, consummate prudence, wakeful observation of men and things, unceasing self control, and, above all, a double portion of the Spirit of Christ. "Brethren, pray for us," that we may be enabled to acquit ourselves honestly and honorably and in Christian temper. Our own prayers will be greatly stimulated and encouraged by the conviction that thousands of devoted spirits are remembering us in their best and happiest moments at the Throne of Grace.
