THE PULPIT, The Future of Our World. The Réve Dr, Thomas Takes Up a Now T'heme, Sormon on the Knowledge of God by the Rov, Mr. Holmor, Bishop Whipple at Bt James’ Chareh. THE FUTURE OF OUR WORLD, Sermon by Illll'lll‘\h Dr. Wiomas, of the First Deth mlist Churel Inspita of tho raiu-storin, o very 10780 andl- enco nyyombled at tho Fivat Mothodiet Church Jast night Lo hear the Tov. Dr. Thomes prasel on *Thoughts Concoring tho Futuro of Our World." Uho Rovorend gontloman took his text from Hobrows 18, 8: “Josus Chtist the samo youtorday and to-tay, and forever,” and spoko substantially na follows: Tho mind tiros of ono thing, whethor it bo good or bad ; and to meot ity varions moods snd wants we aro put Into a world of wondoriul variety nud constaut chango. You ean novor ox. haust ity facts snd eay thero 1s nothing moro to learn. Tho ficlds, tho troes, tho wkies, ond tho olouds look just the eamo on no two days or howa in the ycar. Taking n suggestion from this large and rolinblo book of Nature, I come beforo you with a subjeet at this honr differing somowhnt from thio lincs of thought to which' yon have boun Tistoning in tiie past wook, n (o discoursos up- on tho fufluences that affect sacioty. Thay wora wholly practical, and doalt with the affairs of overy-day 1ifo ; and such wa conccive to be, as o rulo, tho niost uroful form of dincoursc. Dut it is o ually profituble, aud does for tho mind what nul.hiui; o could do, to sometimes venture out upon larger flolds,—to go into tho somowhat speculative, and even fmagivative. It is good to stand and Jook ont npon the oconn, thongh wo can seo no distaut shoro ; to look into the depths nvove ug, though wo hava no wav of roaching thon ; nud to gaze upon thoe stars and conatelin- tions, thonglt we may not aven know their nnmes, Indoed, wolind it aimicult, intho world of thought, to Iny down any ruloor impoce nuy couditions or preveribo any li:its, Wo may suy what wo thik of tho prosent, but what wo call tho pros- ent is iteclf n abifting point, moving forwasd into now scencs and exporiences; and by this very moving forward we soon como to hnve n past,—a past of our own,—and as the mind gety ntronger, and travels back over its own ronds to the faintest momories of its own beginnings, it findy it impossiblo to pauso thero, and must ask and is ourious to know what wasin the longer pust bofore it came to be, And therais no ond to this backwakd rond, that renches into the long “youterdey,” And g0 tho mind, os it stendily Roes forward with ench day futo the now fature, #ioon comes to ask something of the to-morrow of lifo, and tho day, awd tho year, and the forover atrotchmg atill on beyond to-morrov:, Wo follow ono lifo ‘with 8 deep interest to aeo what its future years shall Lo and the inquiry widens and docpons in in- terest whon wo permit it to take in our world nud to askk how leng its yoara shall continue, an what shatl bo the lifo of its children in tho ceu- tuvies you to cuma. Shall the caith itself soon como 1o an end, aud all mankind dio with thow comugon mother? Or slall tho earth Jive on in tho vest brothethood of worlds, eud aur raco coutinno to ropeat tho sad exporiences of pov~ oity, of luat, nnd ‘of war, and go tho weary rounds of lifo and dezth as wodo now? Or is thera u growth of tho ngos, and will mankind riro by a slow dovelopment into tie better con ditions of universal brotherbuad, intelligonce, peace, and religion ? ‘We muy rockon somothing as to what the fu-~ turo will bo from wiss tho past has_beou, from {1 forces at work, and fiom the Diviva plan oftor which and for which the world and man woro muda and aro governed, Man i8 g0 8 part of und related to tho wholo croation, or to {ho crth and tho forms of life below hiwm, that wui- ther bis pas’ nor his futuro ean woll bo studied nlono; so that the iuquiry must relato to both tho curth and man, As 0 the prst of our oarth, thoe most probablo conclusion of aeionce points il tho nobular hypotuesis, cud upposes that the intter composing the entire solar system onco existed in vho condition of a singlo ncbulous nnss oxtending boyond the orbit of tho most remoto planct, and that this nebulm had s glow rofation’ upon sn axis, and that by sndiation it gradunlly cooled, theraby contracting ils dunensions, As it contructed ity dimensions, its volocity, according to tho principles of mo- chanics, nocessnrily incrensed, und ‘tho centrifu- gal foree thus generated in tho exterior portion I thie nobuln beeone equal to tho attraction of tho central masy, ‘This oxterior portion then be- come detached, and revolved as an immensn ring, orzone, Au the central muss continued to cool and contract in ity dimensions, othor zomes be- camo detuched, whilo the centrnl mnsa decreascd in nizo, and merensied in donsity, ‘I'ho zoncsthug suceesstyely detached gonorally broke up Into eoparato mugses, revolving independontly about the sun. - As each of thedo pianstary masscs bo- camo still further coolod, it passod through o succossion of chunges similar to thoss of tho firse nebula ; rings of mattor wore formod sur- rounding the plauctary suclons, and theso rings vlumately broke up and formed gatellites revoly- ing; about their primaries. Atter such & concoption as this, geology intro« duces 1w to hor vast porious, and tells of tho Azue when our carth was a rock-onerustod filobo, rolling on in darkuesg with no sign of lifa uypon its_bure aud heated surfaco, Then of the long Palcozoie ago, whereln tho contiuen:s were slightly litted above tho wators, snd the first forms of vogolable and nnimal fo appoared ; ood then of the Mezozoie ngo, when,, in tho Lot sir and the almost cou- stant rains, the carboniferous poriod, by iv rank growtbs, puritled the nir of ity oxcessivo carbon, und the hugo forms of styange anlmely appeared on the land.

Wo v supposo that tho forcen thit have workod inn tho past, aud that work now, will continmo in tho thne to como, and that man's fituro on the earth will Do largely, ns in tho past, along the lineu of n botter smntorial. prospority, & highor eivilization, and a purer religion. Tho strugglo of our race in the long past has beon mainly for food and raiment, and up to this timo buts vory smalt numbar have bad aven thesa in any tolarablo abundunca, Home of tho rea- sons for this long and widespread povorty of our world aro found in tho want of skilled Inbor, in unjust governments, aud in tho untold waste ot war. Thoso will bo ovorcomo in tho futnro, A gonoral intolligonco will produco skillful wor erd in sl hnes of industry, and scienco wiil con- tinue to mulliply tho power of man over naturo. “'ha highor lnte\lx;dneu aud o fondoror justico will givo tho world wiso and just laws; and tho samo clemonts, with _an icronsing respect for vational and Individunl rights, aud o growing senso of tho brothorhood of man, will in timo mnko sy groat war impossible. It is easy to 500 how thoso results will soon fill thoe carth with wonlth, Enough money has boon wastod 10 war afono to have given overy man and woman in the whola world a Lomo, and overy child & _good oducation, and overy villego and community a library aud o clhurch. Lot tha world now agroe to stop this one vast expense, and turn all the standing smues into wseful Wborers, and want would soon disappear. In the coming future, undor nil tho various in- dustrios and appliancon of sctonce, thoro will bo impraved and clicaponed methods of building, of travel, of commerco; and tho timo will como when all tho babitable parts of our now world will bo moxo Lighly cultivated than aro now tho best parts of Ireland or Franco. In all the longth of this yast land thera shall overywhera Do smiling flolds, sud blooming orcliards, and pleasant groves, und shadod ronds, nud homos of overflowing plenty. Amd so of Llurope, Asi aud Africa, the timo will como when no child shall ery for bread, aud no’ bogger bo on tho street or paucor languish by tho wavsido ; when no poor. woman shall | sit all day in n cold, baro parret, and sew for a poor uhilling, With this higher intolligonco aud thoso better materinl conditions will como lees wickness, aud Btronger bodics, and fewor deaths, for chitdhood, and longor lives for adults. Tho poverty and sickness of tius world bave too long 'muu set down nx r:u-ta of n wise I'vovidenco, when thoy should have been charged to tho ig- norance and #in of mankind, Thon thera will boin the future moro soll goyornment among the people, & goneral dis sition to do right, and less need for tho inte: ferenco of law, and the timoe will como when tha most perfeet form of a republican rulo shall bo tho governmont uf all lauds, The forces aro already at work all over Iiurope that will soon mako a despotic yulo imposeible. Thoe doep mur- murings of the lower people that now disturb and even threaton modern civilization, are only the agonies nnd unrest of thelr hard lives, and theso will, by and by, gain wisdom ond strongth fo gssort thcmesolvos wisely and beljrto bring about tho nocded reformes, Then'in the coming futura our world will reach and rost in a purer roligion, All hoathon idols must fall, and ono God Lo nacknowledged by nll pooplo.

Whroo or four thousand years ago n Nnamathitn theologian, in a colsbrated doctrinal controversy with Job, askod this question, “ Canst thou by sonrchiug find out Gud?* From this iv s ovi~ dent that even in those very early times thonght- ful men had cocountered” tha difliculty that a finito mivd ulways fiuds in_trying to grasp tho inflolto.

Tor if wo oanmot know God ab ell; it through tho lititations of our own facultien wo cou acquira no concoption of such o Ioing, thon thero 1s an end of all theulogy and wll religion as well, But tho real dilliculty does notlia just hero, and tho metaphysicians cannot ecompol it to hio horo, ‘Ihe fact “is that while wo do have sumo comprohension of God, wo do not knew all abont Him, It is truo as was implied in Zophar's ques- tion, "' Canat thou find out tha Ahmighey unto perfection?” Oh, ua; cortainly not, If wo could, wo should then and thors bocomo God.
