" ABIMELECH AND ALOOHOL: Sermon by the Rov, E. F. Willinms, The following sormon on tho .temporance- question was proached yesterdsy morning at tho Torty-soventh Btrect Congrogational Oburch, by tho pastor, tho Rov. Edward I. Williams. His toxt was ¢ - . And s cerlaln woman cast upon_ Abimelech's head, snd Judges, ix., 63, Abimeloch, tho bramblo-king of 8heohem, was a thoroughly unfortunate man. o was unfor- tunate in his bicth, hisname, his charactor, his frlonds, ond his foes; in & word, disaster fol- lowod everystop of bis carcor.. On a small scalo, L history llustratos tho history of Aleohol, and us'anch I ask you to consider it this morniug. Abimeloch was tho son of Gideon. IIis mothor was a Bhochemito, an idolator, ns tho name (Fathor of tho King—n hoathen title) givon tno child toatifios. A good name Is & groat blessing. 1t pledgos its posscssor to sn offort to securo tho qualitios of charactor which distinguished him for whose sako tho name 18 bestowed. Abime- Ioch was plodgod in his namoeto the worship of Daal. Hiy father was a maa of reputation and storling virtues. Ho had dolivered Israol from Amalek and Midian, IIe waus a military bero'of the first olass; cool, brave,. decisive, ‘magoani- mous, and undelfish. ! For himself: aud: his fflucfinfi:flm “ho. & lmlfuhnrl ]tha so\(!luru]gn- W o . grateful pooplo pressed upon Plin. * Ho opposcd Ao, BRIt of Soisty which was rife in lus day, yot-yildod to ite in- fluonco so far aa to mako, without Divine authori- £y, 8 costly ophod, whose worship at Ophral, his own ity, he parmitied to tako tho placo -of tho worsbip sppointed at Shiloh, As o Judge, for forty yenrs ho guardod faitufully tho intorosta of the onplo. Tu morals ho was not ovorstriot. ITe had many wives, snd wos the father of sov- enty sons,. ¥o supportod o secondary, or illo- gitimato, wifo, in idolatrous Bhechom, the wother of Abimelech, Who, we mny - presumo, was oducated after Lis'mothor'y way Of thinkiug, to honor Baal and to hate Juhovah.;, - As o yol\ngl' man, Abimelech sooms to'havo | lived altornatoly at Ophrak and at 8hechom, and ta have boen of o jealous, aolfh, cruel disposis tion. A¢ tho timo uf which wo write, his fathor and- mother aro dend, and the brothers are from 5,ta 95 years of age. Abimolach baa not for- gotten thecrown which his _fathor-rejeoted, and, ertho one loast worthy of it;"is'most auxious to'woarit. ” S * Mark the paraliels thug far. Alcohol is of ‘ro- spectablo origin, atloast’ on it fathor's sido,— from tho grain of which, wo malie our Lroad, — but, for all that, “Las.’ no ..roal ‘ right | to. -exist. Thoronghly = unworthy, Alcohol | scoke to 1ule, ond to rula for sclfsh. purposes. With Aleohol ad with' Abimolech, wo may be suro that that which has no right to exist can nover attain to tho highest prouperity ; nuy, that this existence will cnrry o ourse with it from first to wluu of a_mill-atono to break his akull.— last, Tho desiro for & prominonco for which his talunts do not -flt - him, lends Abimelech into a conspirncy. Our first viow.of Lim nss young man is 88 o couspifator sgairst bisown kin, He has og htllu‘}wxincxplu 28 Calaling; oud ia fay more orucl, lio communes with tho houso of his mothors fathor, Ho appoals to anti-’ Ieraelitish projudicos.

Iloexcites their fonrs, " asking thom which is botter, thatall tho sons'of Gideon slionld roigu, or that one should roign, und that ~ ono their one “bono. and fesh” As s matter of fact, tho fcors ho_ oxcitos' ave groundless ; tho sons of Gidoon havo no inlnn:‘on of trying to rulo. Thoy are contant to nblde by their father's de-- cision, and to romain citizens of a Btate in which Johovah i King.. Dut Abimoloch assumos that they aro plotters against tho liborties. of Bhe- chiem, and tha _towns ' losgue with Shochem.
