Changes In tho Church=Scrvices, From the New York Tvibuna Tho mods of conducting divine servico in the Drotostant Epiacopal Church not ouly varies in difforent parishos, but s beon £o ETEADILY CRANGING AS A WIOLE, during tho past soyenty years, that, as rondored anywhoro to-day, it would present vory stranga fentures to the worshiper of the last coutury. ‘Thero havo been five causes, both for this atendy altoration that Los boen taking place, and for tho present varintlons of use in difforont par- ishes. One of thoss causes I to bo found In tho romarkablo growth and spread of High-Church principlos sfuce Bishop Ilobart's day, sixty yoarn ngo; in the subasquent growth and spreud of the Oxford views during tho past thirty yoars; and in the consequent sproad of Ritualism, or Catb- oliolty, in tho lst ffcoon yoars, A sacond cauna in doubtlosa 0 bo found in tho genoral advance overywhore in cathotical tasto, which showa itsel? in improved axchitocturo, in tho * decoration of parlors, of publio halis, of tho saloons of atesmbonts, and oven in such lit- tlo mattora as advertisng circulars, which are printed in polychrome, A third couso arlees from tho fact that thener- vice, a3 an outward coromonial, must take ite ehapo somowhat from tho structuro and arrange- ment of chancels, which, with the growtl of High-Chureh views, havo themselves boon con- stantly varyiug in tho past efxty yoars. A fourth causo is this: Tho Church is a living | body. Sho Lina hiot custome, and, without defln- ing mauy of them, carrics them along with ber down through time. The consequence is, rubrics * bnve nevor in tho past, or in any form of tha Church, been oxhauative in thoir directions ; NOR 18 IT PRACTICALLY POSSIOLE to mako them so. It Las nover boon necossary, for nstauce, Lo deflug by rubric that the verses of the Panltor or tho e Deum should be read altornately by minfstor and people, or sung an- tiphonully by the cantori and decani sides of iho choir. here is no rubrio for tho insertion of a hymn at morning ¥orvices botweon tho Gospel and the sormon. Thia cuatom arose for tho pur- poso of lling up tho interval while the clergy- mon was in tae vestry-room chaugihg his sur- plico for the goon, Somo_clurchos theroforo, nowadays, where tho surplico is not changed, will bo found insorting tho hymn, according to older custorn, betweon tho Epistic and the Gos- pel,inutend of betweon the Gospol aud tho sermon, on 'the ground that the Gospol which annouuces tho “good nows,” and tho Creed wbich for- malates it, aud tho sermon which explains and enforces 1t practically, form a unit which should mot e broken in upou by a hymn. There uro no diroctions, too, a8 to what shatl bo duuo bo- foro aud after the sorman st Evoniag Praver, and as to what kind of a blossing shatl bo given at tho close. From tho faot then, that ccrtain customs, not specified by rubrio, may fall into gradual decay it one contury, and become slowly gathered up again ot a subsequent period, varia- tions arise in the sorvico, A fifth causo of steady sltoration in the past half-coutury, snd of contemporanoous variations now inthe rendering of “tho servico, is to be found 1n tho resolutions and AGTION OF THE GLNERAL CONVENTION. Tor instanco, a pumber of yoars ago the Convan- tion pormitted tho singing of sclected prssages in any servico, provided thoy wore takon cither from the Bible or Prayer-Book, ienco, whiloin somo churches an futroit is sung boforo the Holy Conmunion, the Benedicius bofors tho Conscs crution, the Nuno Dimittis after the Blessing, and the Invogation of tho ‘Lrinity is given boforo tue sermon, in others thoy a1o not : cach moda boing equally authorized, aud diversity being tho rosult, ~ Tho Convontion also hae ugain and again authotizod the division of tho servicos. enco it haa followed that while, in many churches, the Morning Prayer, Litany, aud Com- munion, aro stitl said nliogother ss ono long service, in others thoy ate separated oud suid at dufforont bours, A briof account of the main changos that liavo occurred in tho last sevenly years will nob Lo without interost. 1f tho reader goes back to 1790, bo will fiod an almost wvarinble arravge- ment of chinucels, and o corrosponding roudor- ing of the sorvice, o will find o Atructure, kuown 8y 8 _ “ rnEE-DEORED," elther standiog in and filing up the chancel, or stunding without tho chavce! sud at tho head of tha contre alley, 'Lhis fabrio consisted of threo compartmants, councoted one over the othicr, The uppor compartmout was a lofty Y:;Ipil. with soundiig-board over it.
