BISHOP CUMMINS' SECESSION. . 1 Sermon by the Reve Dr. BEdward Suls livan, Xoctor of Trinity Episcopnl Churclh, Bolivered Yewtorduy Fores noom, et A Thé Rev. Edward Sullivan, Rector of Trinity Ohuroh, ofiiciated yesterdsy morning to s largo congrogation in Martine's Hall, on, the corner of Indiaha avenuo and Twonty-second streow. Tho subject of his sormon was the recent letier of Dr. Cummius, tho Assistant Bishop of Rentucky, of whith hio spoko substantially as follows i . Mauy of you know that tho city papors pub- lishod a cireular lottor, from Dr: Cammins, with- drawing 'from . the Church ‘with Which he las beon connected for tyonty-oight yenrs, for QY- on as Bishop. It sppoared too late for mio to commit my thoughts to writing,'but I could nob tefraln from glviog; my Ideis on’ the subjeot. .+ Ho ‘onco ‘occupled. my placo, and employed his groat abilities whoro X now stand; and naturally. this congregation takesa poculinr futerest in tho matter. ‘ Bosides that, it inter- oats tho Ohurch at largo to a sousiblo dograo. Aftor having read tho lottor from tho Bishop, Dr. Sullivan continuod ¢ : With some things in {his you will doubtloss agroo. <The first is, » Bishop hias the inhoront right tb withdraw from our communion if he sees fit, Ho ontered it voluntarily, and he can withdraw voluntarily, Sccondly, in this case, sa wo must charitably suppose, the withdrawal is conaciontious. We can impugn no man's mo- tives without cause, and e must presume in this case that ho has the right and has oxercised It consciontiously, Thirdly, we must promiso it was tho only courso open to bhim. Ho has scted with straightforward consistency. Uuhappily, thore are, many men -still in tho Clurch, and who would be-better ot of it, who tack that quality, ‘It is inconsistent to romain withid o Oburch, violating its :ordars and tram- pling onits laws, and ‘yet claiming to bolong bodn' 3 But, beyond this, I join issue with tho Bishop. 1 think his orror is of tho head, but not of the heart.” Do the merits of. tho case justify tho withdrawal ? Is it inevitable? . I think it un- wiso, for it would have beon manlior to stay in the Church, and continue to protest against it errors, It muet havo boen painful for him to soo theso symbolical tonchings in churches whero he was compelled to ministor, It must have galled bim, and he musi have winced undor it ; but it would havo been braver to confront error within tho communion, rather than withdraw from it. Paul must havo folt the same pains in his apostolio dutica. In his travels, ho must havo found many forms of error which ho could not thon corroot, but he romained in the Church till tho end, and kept his (aith in spito of all thoso errors. Xt docanot follow that.a Dishop, by his pres- enco in o chur¢h whoro there: axe* coremonios which offond -him, tharoby sanctions thom, or even takes part in them, -If itisnssumed ho docs, the logicis fallacious., Dutycalls a Bishop to of- ficiato in a church, -What hoseos thore shocks him. But o is nob counteuancing’ ritualism beeanso duty calls him ‘thora. Hie. presenco it merely bodily, If tho presouce of ritualism in- validated the service,. there is no mental partici- ation in it for him. . If it .does not. invalidate t, thon cortainly his. prescnco is produative of harm to no onc, As attho tabloof the-Lord, it you.are a firm beliover in tho vicarious atone- ment, it makes no dinerence what ?nur neighbor thinks; and are you not compromised by kneol- Ing beside him, Hoisit with tho Bishop, Ho “can worship God in his own Leart without any |om$rcmhm of. Lis own consistonoy, Is -the coudition of tho Church such wnow, that gcoossion bocomes a duty? If it s for .the DBishop, it: s for us. Thero are timos when socession is justifiable, The Protestant Eplscopal Ohurh illustrates that, 1n tho Boveath sud Eighth Conturics Rémo ha Becoded from’ tho slmplicity of tho faith, and the truth was Indden from viow, When the iz~ toonth Conturysccessioncamo, it was justifiablo, and commendsitself to Chriatendom,since Romo i further from truth now thanin Luthers day, Papal infallibility and other powoers having becn ‘#dded, which forover proclude roform. But is the Church in such a condition s tojus- tify aman' in saying, **Icaunot romain?” Is It not & condemuation of the whole Ohurch? Beccesion can bo justified only when therois a wholo - abandonment: of 0 truo faith. Our Church s far from- that. do nat.is say tho:-Ohurch is -iporfect. I see weakness and faults, and thoy will always pxist in any earthly organization.” Wa can find erfection only in the Church of Hoaven, There Pslu tho Ohurch a littlo ‘soclely known s tho Confratornity of tho’ Blossod Bacrament, which one of'the Dishops Los denéunced as disloyal, whouo superiors racommoud resistance to Churolt suthority. It has committod itsolf fo false doo- trino, and holds that the table is an altar, that tlio mrinistor is s saorificiog Priest, oto, Sucha socioty ‘is treasonablo, ay Dhfixoy Cox hes sallod'it, 2 Amopg the authoritios of the Church there is & culpable want of agreement. Thoro aro injus- tices in tho administration of Episcopal suthor- It;. which is & reprosch to'nue. Ono man going off in ono extreme is laid Lold of hvl his ishop for " preaching in a Mothodist lmrch, while 8 ritualizing ‘minister is unre- Fmvud. That tho Church a8 a body adleres to o the .pure doctrine in hor standarda of faith, adheres to tho old orced, ‘Thoy would bein- diguant, with a few excoptions, at the attompt to leave out the Nicene Creed. ‘Tho prayor-book, as it gtands, gives tho ossontial truthof tho Gospel ; though dome of the points ‘montioned n the Bishop's letter might bo revised, aud thus Iso nway all praterioe of cavit, Whon'any othor than Ottt 1 pronchod from tha pulpit of our hurch; whon it adyocatep tho worship of the sirgln, or the adoration of spints, thon’apd not till then will.it bo time for men to obey the divine summons aud come out of her, I main- tain tho Church is far from any such condition ot prosont, 1 Judge tho conyse ho will pnraue can be con- jootured.

Mo dodicatory oxercises of the Church of 4ho Messiah occurrod at the new ediflco, cornor of Michigan avenuo and Twonty-third strect, yosterday forenoon. The dedicatory prayer was offored by Robert Goliyor. Tho sor- mon’ was delivored by tho Rov,. Dr. Bel- lows, ‘who choso his toxt from Hebrews 8, Vorsea 10 and 11, Tha toxt, ho said, prodicted s time when God would coage to refor mankind to the tables of tha law; whon it would bo so sim- plo that no interproter would be needod savo the individual hoart and consoience. As Unitarians, his hearers had an part vorified this prophocy. They neceptod no positive schemo of salvation; Tecognized no pricsthood, and had no written créod. And yet thoy built churches, “God is 8 Bpirit, and thoy that worship Him must wor- ship Him in epirit and in truth,” mon said, and ot thoy build costly churchos. His endosvor would bo to explain this. Tho church had been built as'an nsylum to which its congrogation and their childron could come for eheltor tho troubles of the world. It was necessary to their feolings if not to s, that they shonld appronch God with somo symbol of a rovorence. A common langungo ud n common place of meoling woro requisito if wo would unito in common prayor and praise. God was not to bo propitiatod or flattored by offerings. If wo thought God could be flattered by our praigo wo should cosse to worsbip Lim. ‘We make our worship stately and costly, bocauso wa know our God eannot bo moved by sncrifices or prayors, It isto teach this that we make our publio places of prayor so beautiful, but God's only templo is in ench hoart. Unilarians pay genorous stiponds to pronohers, In order to havo them tell thom they havo no prieathood. Prove that Ohrist saved o human soul by sprinlding the faco with water, and that coromony. would .de- gonerato into a vulgar, shocking thing. It was because Baptism snd otherceremonies wero only symbols, thet wo wero ‘'so blost in using thom. God's epirit was s puro that men ' “wero compelled to symbolizo it Unitarians do the vory things which their re- ligion did not valus, thoreforo, every ono of tho fentures of a robed priocst and a vaulted roof dis luted the ossonco of prayer; but prayer must bo diluted that its tasto may bo approciated by our follows. Either error, that whioh confounds tho Church with its forms, and that which thought it could exist for good without thom, was -to be shunned. Theso forms wore no moro tho os- souce of roligion than the locomotivo the og- sonca of stenm, Christ's followors hind to dog- matizo in order to perpotusto what in Him was &0 avauoscent in its boauty and glory. No ob- ject in naturo ovor cast a true shadow, and Hia shindow was more or less distorted. The scien- tific world will noxt year bo watching the transit of Verus crossing the sun,—by its shadow, and by that only, can we Teasuto tho distance of tho onrth from thesun, Nowwhen Jesus livedindiroct conjunction with God ‘and’ ‘man, 8s the planot will bo botween the sun and carth ; whon Christ mado his wonderful traueit across the diso of tho Divinity, no wonder that this exquisito apiritnal phenomenon attracted the attention of tho whole world, in orderto monsure the' distance of man from God, If tho oarly aatronomors erred in ‘measuring tho physical distance, o hundrod yonrs .io. why should wo wonder that the unparallelod phenomenon of Christ's transit” across God's foco bad been as orroncously regardod, A reli- gioy which naturo loved, roason endowed, sud humanity nccopted, rejooting it only whon upon it by s hard and domingering . forco, was ono which the Unitarians had adopted, Tho croed of nine-tenths of nll Ohristiaus declares | the human race in » Btate of rovolt against ita Makor, and alrondy condomned to etornal misery. This religion offerdd ‘ounly ‘dorfpin oonditions of escapo, er otornsl ruln, Josus Ohrist s the cooqual with God, and oxecutod tho'bond by taking tho sins of the world upoy bim, Baliove this, and thus be saved, tho life of purity you may live serving only as an indion- tion of your boliof, This was the orthadox faith, The spenkor did not wish to troat tho roligion which had beon lived by many holy men Tith disrospoot. - Ttoligion was - 80 nocosaary an intorost of humanity that it swill roar itself ipon anythivg that will support it.

The toxt was—Johu; 4th chaptor, 84th vorso ¢ ** Josus eaith unto thom, my meat ia to do tho will of Him that sont mo.” Thin.is & comforting saying,—it allies Ohrist to the wants of mankind, Tho sources of onrthly food aro conatantly drying npand wasting away: To whom did Josus go for His constant aid and strength through His numorous triala, which’ changes His, lonoly and, sorrowful lifo to # poscoful and joyful ono? Cortainly to mo earthly sourco. Tho disclosura’ of euoh’food awakoned tho intorest of the dlsoiplos. Itisin. tho Intelligont, willing servico of God that such strength comos, and this it is to do ‘the will of @Qod, . Lifo - s in actionj it “is in the blood, not' stagnant, but .tho = hedlthful, activo, flowing ‘current,” The soul has no; life: but what is busied on work.. Just so is it with the young servank. of Cbrist entoring into the kingdom. Ho wishos to know what to do. But it munt not be an nimless aotivity, but in sub- sorvionco to s will, Not like o ship sailing rud- dorless and without o chart, but one dostined for o particular p8rt. Moro than tlus, morely to work intolligently is not enongh. The motive power of the soul must bo caught from sounding tho dopths of God's purposes, acting with Him— thon ia it roal work. Jacol's long yesra were but fow days in his Inbor for Raokol. When a Christian can say, like David, *“ Lord, I am Thy sorvant; Thou hast loosed my handg,” thon s his labor light, and he can run with willing foot to “do his duty, Tho sad- dest 'of the forebodings of mon is the thought that their work commouced, must be left undono, DBut the happy followor of Christ can gny, “Lord, I have tluished the worlk Thou las given mo to do.” Norandom work isit. God sots his disciples to do no uninfi, aimless éxistonco. It accomplishes its ond, though ho who doas {6 may " uot think g0, As iunwoll- dircoted avmy under tho loadorship of au ox- perienced Goneral, a soldior forgets his isola- {ion, and, by the enthusiasm of the multitude, bocomes atronger himscll; so in Christ's army tho Clhinstinn {8 not alone. Josus says, * Ono sowath, anothor ronpoth,” and all are part of one groat Lond doing tho same work. Not man's work, but God's worl, is tho Christinn dofug. But how cau ho'know that he is enjoying suol morit,—doing the will of God? Tho Bible pointa it out'; 1t ia tho chart, and many sro tho way- ‘marks thorein shown “for his comfort.” How re- splendent its pages will b at the last day, and how will the Christian_wondor at Lis own “indif- ferenco to it befors, Wonld a pilot traverso the geas and nover look at lis chart, or attempt to learn his course or dostination ? * Yot such is tho conduct of many in thoir earthly march.

Qhurch. . As to tha prospocts of such s Ohuroh, Dr. Porking sald that it might draw & fow. of tho. Episcopal churobes, as tlioy now exist, into tho :organiza- tiou, but'he did nob think thero would be largo accessiona from what are tormed tho * Evangel- ical churches,” as many of them proforred tho prosont nssociations, aud wero willing to con- tend for what thoy bolieved to bo tho truth where they wore, er v i Asto nnow Assistant Blshop, r.Perkinathought thero would be :on jmmediate effort on the art of some of tho churcles to socure one, but [ id not botiovo it wos advisablo t this {imo 88 Bishop Bmith could roturn to the diocosa an oxercise his episcopnl functious as of old, It was probable that Bishop Smith would be ad- dressed t ouce upon tho subject, and ho had no doubt but that ho would return. Dr. Porkins rogrottod tho action of Bishop Cumming vory deoply, both from motives of .porsonal friondship and for tho eake of tho poace of the Church, s A roporter of the Courder-Journalintorviewed Mr, William Cornwall, Br,, one of the most rominent mombors of Christ Church, and & Emmz;i Episcopalian of this city, on the subject of_Bishop Cummins' withdrawal, Mr. Cornwall cheorfully gave his views upon the subjeat, and readily answered the questions pronmmdnd by our reporter.

Tt was a mattor both of surpriso and rogrot-with him, and ho rogarded . tho, Bishop's withidrawal as oxcoodingly unfortu- nato for tho Church, . Whilo Mcr, 8hiclds was talking, ona of his por- _aonal friends, and s layman in tho church, camo in and, joining in the conversation, oxprossed his belief that tho withdrawal of Bishop Cum- mins from the Church would mark ono of the most important and oxtraordinary ovonts in tho history of the Ohurch.: Mr. Shiclds bolioved that it would depend on tho futuro courss of Blshop Cummins., TFor o Tong timo the diseatisflod party in the E?hcopnl Church bad not been vory small or unintluou- tial, ITo believed that from the tono of Bishop Ciammiug' lottor ho would not yield tho authority to administor tho rights of his offico. Tho dis- affooted faction would bo likely to adhoro to im, glving him the jurisdiotion of o Bishop, and bis dlocoso exteuding ovor all the United atos, . ‘With reforonco to the action to ' bs taken by the.Church in the cago, Mr. Bhiclds read from tho canon the provision that, in caso of the res- ignation or withdrawal of & mlhister, the Bish- ops must hold o meoting within throo months of tho timo of such action and "depose tho minister from hiseacrod offled. o Mr. 8. thought théro was notliing wrong In tho Bishop's action: when he communed with | tho Prosbytorians, but he thought it injudiclous under tho ciroumstancos. v 6 Mr. R, A, Robinson was alao_intorviewed on'|*: tho subjoot, but he was quite roluctant to givo, atiy docidad expressions, oxoopt that the with-" drawal of Bishop Cummina bad tnken overy ona by surprise, and cansed a* profound rogrot” in many Epiecopal oireles. - ° 5 r. Robinson was of opinfon that the Blshop's action was not at oll a rosult of any consuro or dissatiafaction ome tho part of the Church for Lis notion during tho sitting of tho Lvongolical’ Allisnce, but that it was moroly & culmination of tho litt10 @ifferoncos which havo foryoar oxistod hotwoon him and tho Church, as indicatod by thoe Bishop's letter. No doubt he was anxions to bring on tho isane when. ho took part fu tho communion with the Prosbyterians. But it was nothing atrange for Epincopslians and membors of other denominations to communa_ togother, and thoso who raised any serious objoctions to such action were very few. Mr. Robingon #aid that the duties of the Bishop in this diocese had for somo timo boon unplons- anit to him, sud that 'ho had for sovoral years. been very much dissatisfied with his flold, of labors. This dissatisfaction had caused a corre- spondlng indieposition to that nctivity that was domanded of him. It was Mr. R.'s opinion that tlus indisposition topiscopsl duty of tho Bishop bogat a slight dissatistaction smongat his pooplo, and that his knowledgo of this feoling was partly tho causo of his action. Dosidea this, ho gavo. thio Bishop crodit for all the reasons essigned in” his lettor, and bolioved that it was his intontion toplaco himself at the hosd of & now Church _organization, with tho office of Bishop, bis Load- - unrtors ot Now York, and Jnxhadlnt{on in the nitod Statos., _ i i From tho intarviows recorded above, quite a wido difforcnco of opinton is digcornible, mark- ing tho two tronds of thought in the Eplscopal Church, Iowever Eglncopnfllua oxpress thelr views a8 to Biehop Cumminsg’ official conduct, and consnra or approve him thorofor, thoy ssem to ackuowledge him, one and all, a8 a brilliant, vl[ior(ms and nfluential preachor.
