John Wood, of the Ninth Presby- terlan Church, preachod yesterdny mormning to his congrogation on **Oapital Punishment.” The following passagoes of Boripturo were tho baeia of his remnrka : Gen, 03 6—“ Whono slieddoth man's blood, by man ghall s blood bo ahed ; for i tho Imago of God mado o man,"” Fx. 20t 10— Thon shalt niot kill,” Deut, 19 : 12-13—* Thon tho oldcrs of his eity shall send snd fotel him_fhonce, anid_dellver him into tho Tond of thio avenger of blood, that lio may dle, Thino oyershalt not ity him ¢ but thou shalt piat awny tho gullt of inuocent blood from Israc), that it may go well with thee,” THE SERMON. Ono of the surost marks of an advanced stago of clvilization is found in an increaged oatimato of the valuo of human life. Thoroe is scarcoly o stronger point of coutrast betweon ancient and modern forms of civilization thauis sfforded by this ono clement. ' In rudo agos, and among bar- “wrous nations, human lifo is treated asif it + ~ of no account, and hitmnn sufforing acarcoly - . = caro.

And 1t shows, too, that a more intelloctual cul- ture will interposo no barrler to tho growth and prevalanco of tho most dograding and dormoral- izing of viecs and crimes. It is admittod on all hands that the decay and flual obolition of the glndintorinl games was duo to thoinfluence of the Gospol. Tholr supprossion, says Lecky, in his history of European morals, ‘' must bé slmost oxclnsively ascribed to tho Clristian Church.” The firat lmfirxnl ediot against them was fssucd by Constantine, after his convorsion to Christi- anity. They woro donounced with unwavering and uncompromising cousistoncy by Christian writers and preachers, a8 not only demoralizing, degrading, and brutal, but as murders—for which the spectators and notors werc equally ro- eponsiblo before Honvon. ‘The extinotion of. thoso barbarous spoctacles was the work of Christianity. The Clurch re- fused to admit to baptism a professional gladia- tor until he had pledged Limsolf to abandon his ‘unholy calling, and every Christian who attended tho games was excluded from communion, The ‘Fathora of the Church, as I have alrendy re- marked, denounced them with unqualified ve- homence ; and, in tho courso of about half a century from the conversion of Conatantine, tho practico of human combat in the ampbhitheatro came to on end. % Christianity establishes a now rolation betweon man and men, It revesls the great fact,—which Do other roligion on earth has ever rocognizod,— the faot of tho brothorhood of all men ; that all are membera of the samo family, possessed of the same rational and moral nature, and slike ‘heirs of immortdlity. Tho first aspect in which the religion of Jesus Christ prosonted itself to the world was a8 a declaration of the fraternity of mankind. It considered man ns a spiritual be- ing,—soparated not morely indogreo, but in kind, from the 1rrational creation,—as possessed of » mind, or & soul, an_immaterial and imperishable essonce, that should continue to oxist when suns, and stars, and syastems hod decayed and per- ished. Honco tho infinito valuo that Ohristin- ity placed upon tho individual man., It did not 80 much regard mon in masses, but rathor as individual units, oach conscious and responsible soul s part by itself, each one a reflection of tho Divine personality, endowed with unlimited ca- acitios, and with an endless life, In recogniz- ing tho dlgnjltjy of human nature, the Bible rec- ognizos tho dignity of bvery man. It confosses tho undoveloped suscoptibilitics and capnoitics that exist in every partaker of humnn naturs, and sinks all factitions and conventional dis- tinctions in this our grand eloment of manhood. It 8oos in every man, whatever.his advaniagos, his sttainmonts, his station in life,.an immortal being. It represents all men as childron of the samo God, . heirs of the same salvation. It levels tho distinctions of the world, as soci- dontal and insignificant in His sight wbo looks upon the heart and judges men by their true charactor, Tho only morality ~taught in the schiools of * paganism was one of intense and unmitigated seclfishnoss. Christianity strengthons tho bonevolent senti- ments of tho heart, toaches mon to rogard tho gorrows and sufferinga of others with tender sympathy, and fl)ramulgnloa he great law which comprehends all duty ag botweon man and man, ““Thou shalt love thy noighbor as thysolf.” Now out of these ideas of human brotherhood —tho community of nature between all men— grew up the eminently Christian ides of the sacredness of human life. I believo that it is tho great tost of the moral progress of the world. Iivery advancement in civilization is marked by an _increasing effort on tho part of society to ameliorate the sufforings of mon, to protect communities from disense, and incroase the term of human lifo. Look at the comYlox and olaborate machine; of modorn benevolence—how it siugles out enol form of human misery, one by one, and deals with it, We think more of & singlo life than hoathenism, anciont or modern, thinks of the \ife of thousands. It & strangor—an unknown man—falls and is wmjured in the busy streets of this city, Ohrie- tianity picks him’ up; Olristianity provides & hospital for him; Ohristianity = furnishes with tho aids and appliances that are noedful to save the imperiled life, Christian civilization reaches out its hand for the prateotion of Luman lifo in all its stages, from the child unborn to the extromost limit of old ago. 'Thoro ia a practice to which it is diffi- cult even to alludo in & public addross, yot which is intimately connectod with the subjeot bofore un; and {8 one, morcover, in regard to which publio opinion needs to bo educated. On account of tho obvious delicacy of the subjoct I shall not dwell upon it; but will simply remark that, in the light of Christianity, abortion {8 murder. It 18 & tranagrossion of that divine law which de- clares ““Thou shalt not kill." It is to bo feared that multitudos do not #o regard it, Facts come to the light, from timo to time, that indicate a prevailing callousness upon fhis subject, aud show that oven among onlightened nnd intelli- font minds there aro many who do not look upon ho crimo with that deop fecling of condemna- tion and ablorrence that it doserves, The death of o man who i struck down in the midst of his entorpriso and his hopos, in the maturity of his power, and whose removal from socloty causes a [mng of wsorrow ond rogret in hoarts bat nro woited to him by tles of love ond friondship, such a death - producos & very differont impression upon the mind, from tho painlesy oxllno‘lon of o life that is just bo- gun aligh tho dosth of a bolng that hoa scarcely tod on the earth—that Las known nothing of the world's friendship or of its love, But the #p'rit of tho Gospol—tho genius of Chrlstianity— places n tho uamo catogory tho.murder of the man and the murder of &m infant, Andit seems to mo that thore is a !nmuuu' aggravation in the latter : it Is murder {n the first degree ; wiltul, promeditated, unpravoked—the murder of inno- cence the most helplesn; a crime that merits tho severcsl penalty that human law can inflict. 1 was glad to oo, some time ago, that the New York Medical Sooloty had momorializod the Log- |slature of that State to enaot a more stringent aw an this subject—making tha commissinn nf tho orima of which T have spolon punishable by imprisonmont for lifa. Buch loglslation would cortalnly bo in the right direction, But wo need publio sentiment to bo right—wo nood o sound and hoalthful morality, as woll an just laws, If wo pass to tho next stagoe of humnn that of infanoy—wo find Christinnity oxtonding horo also tho hand of protection, Infanticide is not the orimo of o Bavage or a barharous state, It provailod, as is woll known, in tho most enlightoned nations of antiquity,—wns justified by tho moralists and philosophers of But no soonor bind Cliriatianity obtained rocog- nition than it bogan tho blessod worlk of rosouing tho thousands of Iittlo ohildron—helpleas baboa —that {)nglll hilosophy had cast out to dio, And'hof only dld tho Gospel effeet n roformae tlon of ‘public marala iu this rospoct, but it raisod to new powor and dlguuy o Idoa of the Jamily. Wo ofton sponk of - homo lifo, and of the swoot, tondor, hnllowed Assoclatfons that gnfl.\nr around it ; of its sympnthies and affeo- ions, aud of tho roflning and ennobling influ- encoa that flow from it. "But, my friends, home na wo undorstand it, ia' the product of Christianity, Ionthonism has no homes. Al that gives olevation and purity to domestio life flprlufiu {rom the tenchinga of tho Bible. ‘What I have said rogarding the protection to human lifo in its ocarlicat atages which Chrlsti- anity affords, is equally applicablo to life in its maturity, Tho roligion of tho Gospol tonchos” ma to care for tho slck, tho sgo, the infirm, It s eald that in the suclont capitals of olvilized antiquity, thore was not 8o much a8 one public hospital, Now wo soe Christinn Iands coverod with hospl- tals, asylums, homes for tho dostituto, for or- hians, for babes, Wo soa provision made for ho roliof of Luman suftoring in ol its form, Tho flrlrlt of Ohristinnity ia soon in all thoso in- atitutions of oharity and benovoloneo. This scrupulous caro for human lifo—this iden of its saoroducss—is wholly forolgn to tho gonius of \)Asnnism. Itis tho outgrowth of the Christinn doctrine of tho inestimablo value of each im- mortal soul. It fs the dietingaishing and tran- :;mndont characterintio of o Ohristian clviliza- on, 4 Tho world has over boon full of human suftor- ing and misery; tho stolo and tho oplourean look npon tho seene, and, with purhn);n o sigh of filty, pnsa the sufforer by : tho diselple of Jesus ocomos tho Good Snmaritan, stoops down over the prostrato and bleoding form, binds up the wonnds that violonco and cruolty have made, litta up tho sufferer, aud minfstors ungrudgingly 1o his nood, i In what X havo said, it ing beon myaim toshow tho eatimate that Christlanity puts upon human lito—how tho Goapol of Jesua throws a sanctity around oven its humblost forms, bg toaching tho fratornlty of all mon, their indlvidual neoounta- bility, and thoir immortal oxistenco.

The protaection of human socioty, it is ruo, i8 a subordinate end, butit is not tho only end’in view. Justico has her claims upon. the wrong-door, The murderor deserves to dic. No other punishment is sdoquate. The lifo of man i8 too procious a thing to put in the samo cate- Eury with any othor possession. omicide stands apart from all othor crimes, and eservos tho nwful ponalty that divino and hu- mau law hos affixod to it.” Wo somotimes lonr it baid that tho death penaltyis n relic of bar- barism, & remnant of the dark nges. Nothiug can bo more untrue. Thoro bhave boon times when onpital punishmont was inflicted without 'warrant, and for offenses nltogother dispropor- tloned to such & penalty, But the highost sys- toms of jurlsprudence racognize, what this oldost of statute books proclaims as a divine roquire- mont, that lifo ehall atone for life, It is Just; It is oquitable ; it i a part of that moral sysatem of rotributive justico fy' which the Al- mi, governs tho intolligont universe. “'Whoso shoddeth mau's blood, by man shall his blood be shed.” Tho principles involved in this subject aro being slfted and investigated more thoroughly overy day. No more alarming indication of the prevalence of social disorder and corruption could be imagined than the general insecurity of human life. If tho highest of all orimes againat the individua! may go unpuniehed, what immu- nity mng not bo oxpected by criminals of lesa degrea ® ho Jast few yenrs have witnossed a roign of lawlessnoss and violence in the largo citios of this country that would not bo tolorated for & month in any of tho capitals of Europe. Ruf- flans and criminals Lave boasted of .thoir impu- nity. Murdors avorage two or three a week in the commorcial motropolis of the land, Itis tima to put au end to this roign of torror; and evory upright man, a8 well a8 overy Cliristian, will hail with satisfaction the infliction of the extyemo penally of the law upon every offendor. Boldom has o great orime ~ atiracted 80 much® _ notice 08 that for which Willlum Tostor, on Fridoy lnst, 'fmd tho forfoit of hislife. A more wanton murdor nover way committed, It was without tho lonst provo- cation, and withont n singlo oxtonuating circum- stance,—n homicide as cowardly ns it was brutal, Yet eo great is tho domoralization of publie opinion by & wonk sentimontality, that this as- sassin wodt made tho object of b wide-sprend sympatby, and herculesn efforis wore put forth to save him from tho murdoror's doom.

After all theso legal de- fongos lind been exhuusted, appenl was mado to the pardoning powor; and an arrny of wealth, and culture, and social influcuce was brought to bear upon the Executive of the State, such as has raroly intorposed to save the lito of n murdarer. . Unfike most condomned oriminale, William Fostor was of high socinl conneotions, His family was one of wealth and rospectability, Petitlons, large in number, and imposing in the charactor of those who signed them, wore forwnrded to the Btate capital, Lm- inont lnwyers, judges, aud clergymon unitod in tho request for » commutntion of eontenco.

In ono man's hands rested the declsion of lifo and death. Merg; d])lnn.d for life, but jus- tice demandod death. I doubt not that it Gov.

At tho very moment tho deoision was onding, thero flnshed across tho wires from Zuropo tidings of the denth of his own ‘son in Tacia; and, In Lis porsonal borowvomoit, ho could sympathizo with tho auguish of & father's heart, But Gov.

Whenco comes to- day tho nunuurvin’,v,grnnu that insures tho Stato from momontory disintegration?

The political solidarity of n nation d?fwngs upon the unity and earnost- ness of its roligiotis faith, For nearly clght con- turios Roman roligion and law mahitained the closest bouds of union. “To Romans, the founder of tho natlon was adeity . . . . and tholr'patriotiem a religion," * Pro aris ot focis " wae tho inspiring battlo-cry that had made their legions _ victorioua throughout tho civilized world. Rome's donationalization began with the docline of the popular faith in the national re- liglon, and to-day her history sends across the centurics thoe solemn warniug that o nation that haoa no altara will soon havo no heayth-stones ; that a pooplo that ignorea tha Ohurch will soon Duve no Btato, And wo, in this community, aro wonot alrondy entoring the ponumbra -of this foarful oolipso of our national glory? Tho second tablo of tho Binaitic code hes over ‘boon confessod by thoe ablest statesmen of the civilized world, to be the great Bill of Rights, which in the interost of humanity sll civil gov~ ernments have endoavored to sanction aud on- force. And yot to-dny American socloty islosing round on every one of the moralitics of this ablo, Ourgreatcities aro rapidly boing vandal- ized, and the country at Iarge demoralized. Cor- ruption and bribery sit in Sonate-chamberand on wool-uncl ; drunkonness reols, ndultery flaunts, roblory prowls, and tho domon of murder, in spoakable an unarnnhnhlo forms, raves among all strata of society, from Iifth avenneu to Water streets, defying or buying up law as circumatances may diotate; in short, wo aro rap- idly appronching a orisin it roquircs littlo dis- cornment to foresce, where an enforced morality will gimply becomo longor impossible, law a dorislon, and tho Stato a failure, ‘And tho socret of the wholo difficulty lios in the fact that the modern, and especially our American State, Lns mado two fun- damontal mistakos in tho business of clvil gov- ornment. The first is, that sho las divorced what God in the history of tho world has joined together, Aside from all queation of the super- natural origin of tho Binaitic codo, its two tables como upon the fleld of history togothor. In their application to the doyeloping noeds of hu- man Aocl;nty they fell by common consent Into tholr respoctivo placos, ay ench _tho charter aud organio ldw of an outward and visible institu- tion,—tho firat, of the Church, tho second, of tho Btato, Thoso places thoy bavo Leld in' the faith and thought of the best civilizations of tho raco for 4,000 yoays. Bide by side the Church and the Btate have come down through the con- turles, recognizing thoir simultancous uativity aud thoir mutual relations of interest and do- pondenco. But the modorn Btate has com- mitted tho blunder—thecrimo against history—of ' W i jguoring those rolations to which all l.fiatory has witnessed, snd expecting to onforge, 88 & Btato, tho systom of moral_duties to our follows, ot forth inthe socond table, in violont disruption from, and in- deperidence of, the systom of spiritnal dutios to God, nnd faith in the first, and represontod by & churol, Thisnovercanbedone, Ithasbeen ns truo of all nations a8 of those which have inherited the two tablos of the Binaitio code, that n national morality has only beon possibio by the sido of » national rellgion. For s system of moral dutios to our follows, on which sl human gov- ernments must baso themselves, has no force oxcapt in the light of an abeolute standard of righteousness, and a moral rotribution which holda its courl of assize beyond tho conflnes of our poor earthly life. Anduo aeo how the Btato, in nfi matters she deema of epocial importance to soclal order or clvil juatlco, takes o chango of venue from her own oourts, enforcing upon the consclence of her subjeot fealty to her law by the vpains and ponalties of that highor jurisdiction, And mnoto how, whon tho popular honrt loses falth in that highor Jutisdiction, tho 8tate boconios unsblo to pro« ‘toot horsolf from bribory and porjury, by the ap- peal of san oath to this'highor court, and tho Toundations of soclal ordor and civil scourity nro at tho moroy of thoso whom sha hns educated in godlonsnosn by Ignoring the Church, But tho socond mistake which tho modern Binto linn mindo §8 groator than the first, bocauso it Includos it, and fi tho ronson for I8, Whilo sho haa ondenvorod to onforoo tho commands of tho socond tablo of tho docnlogue, as on nbj]unl.h'n systom of morals, she hes Qoned tho cqually ob- Jeclive charnotor of tho flrst table, and given over tho wholo fleld of rollgion to the subjective conviotions of mon,—making cnch man authorl- ty for himsolf in nll matters of roligion, nnd promising to protect him in the oxorcise of that anthority,—by the odlot that *“tho Btato knows no to]lF on.” " In other words, the Hlato oalls upon the Church to abdicate as ono of the two tzrunt higtorle forms of authority, and commit ho whole matter of ihe first table of tho lnw back to individunliem,—to ohaos, «while sho horsolf oxpocled stil to sway tho scoptro of an objectivo anthority, aud conforco tho second tablo as an objective and real systom of humaun duty. In this, too, sho has failod, Individualism in religion will ripon into -inatvidunlism in mornls, A man who ia o Iaw unto himaelf in Church will sdon be in Btate, Tho Btato that tonchen ita subjocts that it * knows no rolligion " will soon bo lnn?ht by its subjects that it knows no mornlity, and has no moro right to onforco ~ tho objectivo morality of tho dcealoguo upon:.sany man who lhns concluded that it 18 not a right morality, than it hns to onforco on him the ob- Joctive roligion of tho same decalogno, And so tho Btate that calls upon the Church to abdicato in_favor of, individualism, on the ground that rollgion has no objcotive law in tho firat tablo of tho decalogue, will soon in turn bo called upon to nbdicnto liorsolf in favor of tho snmo suwur on_the ground that mocial morality and civil order havo no objectivo Iaw in tho sécond tablo, butare mattors of subjective jurisdiction bo- langln% to ench Individual conacience, . And this is the truc acorot to-dny of tho rapld decline in our national morality, and the vandal 1awleasnoss of tho lrrollglous masaes of out pop- ulation. They aro hut carrying out the dootrine that & “Btato knows no rofigion” but a subjec- tive ono, to ita logitimato result that it can know 10 morality but n.mb{cntlvo ouo. And go, over sinco tho Continental Reformation ignored an objective and historieal Church in favor of pri- vato Interprotation of Beripturo and an invisiblo and subjective Church, the trond of human spoc- ulation has beon towards equally subjoctive theo- rios of govornmont, which malie all civil suthor- 7 to vost in tho agnsnt ot tho poplo, donsing o the moralitics tho Btato sceks to enforco &ny foundation in abeolute truth, and making thom simply tho expodiencios of tho hour, which might at any timo be adjourned by o Eopuluvola. As o logitimate outcomo of this, tho masses of the peoplo are every day coming to hiyo more and more ench man by his own subjoctivo standard of morality, so far ns Lo mn{, without coming into unplensant collision with the Stato. And for tho average hoight of those subjootive standards of morality, we havo only to refor to the immoral and unchnatothoorles thint got hear- ing nud following,—tho licontious Htoraturo that floods the community,—the startling rovelations of moral recklessness that daily orop out from ovor? stratum of socioty, and tho disgusting and traglo dizclosures of our criminal courts. ut of all this thore in but one path of hopo, ono courso that loads asido from tha disintegra~ tion and anarchy that lios but a littlo way aliend, for Americon society. Tho groat Augustus mo and fully comprehondod tho entirely similar situation’ of "tho Roman pooplo, when, amid the erumbling, orunohing sounds of goclal disintogration on - every side, ho accopted it ns the problem of his rolgn to colobrato onco mors the divorcod banns botween Roman religion sud Romau law. Tho samo problom prossos tho Amerlean people to- day for sblution, to ro-marry tho tiwo great forcos which God In hintory ss woll, a in rovalntion has joined togothor—morality dnd roligion—ns onjoined in the two tables of ono law. Tho Stato must qualify horsolf by tho ro-assortion of tho Church's tablo, to sustain hor own, An ob- Jective morality must fal) back upon an objoctive religion. Thero will bo n State, for any length of timo, only as that Stato rocognizes the oxist- ence of a Church, and their mufual obligations to uphold each othor, Tho Btaf$ has long do- maunded and roceived from the Church what sho has rofused to reciprocate to the Church, Bho would have rogarded it as tho groatest concolvablo desertion of a church's mission had tho Church at any timo rofused her sanction and indorsomont to tho second tablo of the decalogue, while sho has horself refused her sanction and indorsement of tho firat, Bho hias domanded of the Church to eustain the objective’ nuthority of the Stato, whilo sho horsolf hys distiuclly proniaimod tha tho wholo splioro of yaliion must bo givon ovor to subjectivity and Individualism. But the ex- gorlmont of attompting to maintain an objeotivo tata by the sido of an objective Church is draw- ing to a close. Tho human mind and heart aro alroady sickening of the result. Society is in- stinctively shrinking from tho rosults of its own theorios, Evorything indicates an appronch- Ing crisiss” Evory roflecting mind knows that the chords that bind tho great masecs of our city population to social order and civil obodienco aro already testing the tonacity of overy fibro in their composition, ond oyery thinking man trombles ns ho 'scos and feols, under the voricst fllm of soclal order, the throbbings of the great wild Jmlsu of & maddonoed mob, which moro than half proposos to take the law into its own hauds, when it _is mado to fool the rosero of ho Siato. 1t Is boginming to bopro- oundly felt on all sides thot socioty is ** wil d]’ drifting_toward some unknown catastrophe.” Spasmodic offorta for more stringent logislation, and for moro thorough_onforcement of oxisting lawa againet nlurmmfi\y increasing crimo, are among tho signa of this awakoning conscious- ness, Theso offorts may modify shghtly and temporaily tho aymrtomu, but they do not touch the diseaso. Thoro {s n more radical treatmont neceded. Evor since the Btato withdrow hor in- dorsoment of tho flrst tablo of tho law, in favor of n subjective religion in which individualism ia tholaw of faith, sho has boeen driftin ward o subjective’ morality in which individ- ualism is tho law of practico, What re- maina for tho Btate is. that sho shall return to her primitive alleginnco—that sho sholl rocognizo the Church as Lor poor and olly, by accopting her own Ligh and responsiblo pasffion, which she has o long ignored, and which God in history has so plainly indicated to hor. Bhe must roturn and co-ordinato once more her thoories of govommont ond her legia- lative enactments to the lnw of God, bocauso it is the law of God. Her halls of logislation and hor courts of justico must no longer make the word of God of none offoct b{ their traditions. Bhe will_ find tho Church etill praying for the Btate. From her Litany censolossly goos up the supplication that all Ohristinn rulors and mogis- tratos may be blossod and preserved, and may Tinvo ‘grace to oxecuto justice aud to maintain truth ; and whon thore shall again bo Christian magislratos and rulors, by tho roturn of tho Btato to a practical rocognition of the Christian roligion, “thon will tho iwsin—the Btato and the Church—accopt thoir commission. Bho must say on hor statute-books, and sus- tain it in her public socinl standard of morals, and in the administration of her penal code, “Thou shalt do no murder ; thon shalt not com- mit adultory; thou shalt not ateal.” * * And she must_eay it becauso it s the word of God. Bho must be afraid to own hor allogiance to (iod, and to demand obedienco to her statutes bocause thoy ara Divi.a roquiroments. Bho must olaim nuthority over men, not bocause shio reprosonts thoir sovoreign, but becauso sho {8 tho smbasen- dor of God. Ske must fill up tho full menning of every commandmont of her own table, the second, and then she must turn to tho Church's .tablo, tho firat, and sustain tho worship of God and tho sncrednoss of the Sabbath, Bho must utter the whole law if sho )m{:us to onforco long any |mrh of {t. Tho Btate that “Jnows no religion” must learn one, A Chris- tian Stato must loarn tho Christian roligion, and must eny to bor legisiators, * You must malke Ohiristinn Iawa ;" to Tior ofiicors, * You must ex- eoute Christinn laws;"” aud to her subjects, “ Yon must oboy Christin laws, for this s n Qurltian Blato, and ko tho OGluistion rolig- on," Nor need she palter ovor tho divided stato of Christondomn, doplorable sa it is, Tho cries of #T,0 here |" and ‘Lo thoro!" necd not bewildoer hor, TFor it is no spoculative, subjeotive Ohria- tianity she is callod upon to nccopt. The Ohris- tinn roligion is a mattor of history, aud not of privato judgment. And, in the good providence of God, a historical Church, containing the do- pasit of the listorleal faith, though deserted ong ago for the wild schomes of individualism, has stood, in tho golitary grandeur of her mission, witnesslug in the wildornoss of o subjootivoChristoudom, and amid the rovolutions of subjoctive thoorios of government, for tho Faith once deliverod to tho Bnints, Sho stood like Daniol in her lot, in tho calm aseu.anco that eho phould sco the ond of hor dys of desola- tion ; that Io who rules King of Kings as_of Baindh would suyat last to theproud wavon of In- dividunlism, both in Church sud Btato: * Poace, Dbe still,” and the breath of I spirit would ‘again go out over tho chaos, ovoking the cosmic ordor and boauty of n now creation, A“N‘"““li the guidance thua providentiall; proserved for hor, tho Slalo must roturn and lage horsolf by the sido of the Church, amd hey twain, taking their commirsion from tho avvoiutment of God and tho teachings cf his- tory, ronow tho tina-old nlmlmlo Dotwoon n Divine Authority and Human Individualism, and wago it hand inhand, Thin is tho only path out of tho frowning dangors of tho timo. his path mugt bo taken spoadily, earnostly, or the day iy not distant when tho kingdom shall bo taken from tha Btato that now iy, and Piven to o Btato bringing forth the fruita thoraof. - BANYON'S PECULIARITIES, outh Sido Suprome Justice Kx« adn KNI Practlce in Chunging.
