On tho part of soma there may bo groat approbensiona of eovil, on tho part of othors tho glad omotions of hope. Thero are dangers on both sides. Rovival is ro- turn of Jifo, and there ia always danger when thero 18 living power that will sccomplish something. Thore fs, fist, the dangor that tho character of the work done shall ba too entiroly cmotional, aud Lience too evanescent. Multitudes lna great swakenlng are brought to take some step to- srard a better lifo, and fall to continuo in holy walkiog, Wo choerfully concede the danger. Religion is good for nothiug when it simply loads to tom- porary joy. When it is simply & fow hours of sunsbino that covera the treo with blossoms that promiso o marvelous fruitage, and loave us to soo thom fall in & fow Lours aftersrard, Re- Tigion must be deeply rooted ln conscience. It munt slowly and continuously build up soiid character, 8imply to arouse tho owmo- tional nature so that a Church s bap- py,—dancing on Pisgah and waiting for wings, will do but littla to change the accnnl current of lives that must battlo with adverso forcos in tho realitios of life.

This danger is » vory #orious ono, 1t gots to bo understood m somo clurches that there will bo a rovival each wincer, in which increaso shall be lad, all shall ba alive and at work—all hot whilo the woatbor is cold, and all cool off when the weather grows hot. Then como sermons starched with extremo polize- ness, or rugned by doctiines, or namby-pamby 10 cateh an audicuco, or ornato to gain & roputa- tion, or scholastic to balance the letting-down to tho practioal in the winter-time, Nets, audhooks, androda, and boats put away, No more fishing for a year. Somo Enstern gontleman gaid that he wos told 1n Olicago that if & person went over to April unconverted, ho must then wait until noxt January. 1f thisworo in any sense & necos- sary reeult of revival-meotings, lob there naver bo another special meotiug, There are immenss advantages in the tofi?lll’ Babbath services, 1n our having the holy hour, tho uncrowded hour, the groat public in favorable listening attitude. 1s it owing to revivals that we cannot do better work on tho Babbath? T confess I stand in {front of this danger without a solution. Poa- sibly, however, it is because we need s roat revival in our Learts as Christians, "orsibly it is bocauss we bave not beon suf~ flcicutly careful in our mothods, so that we could come boldly befora the largest audionco, relying boldy on all wo say sud doas true sad reasonable, i “Wuirdly, & great revival will bring this fact : A groat” many sinners will make fiusl docistons to tholr ruin, A great revival {:mcipuums des-~ tinics upon us, We come nto the Government Borvice as_loyal soldies, or we burry over and join the robels.

Each man is responsible, and that responsibility eannot be sbiftod upon thaoso who tell the truth.

I cannot beuitato to declare the groat offer of soul-brond to tho perishing, oven though they add to thoir guilt Ly rejestion, All blessings may be porversions, and yot they are blessings, But thero are alno great dangers in not having rovivals.

FRANCIA MANSFIELD, Tho Rov. ¥rancis Mansfiold, pustor of the Church of tho Atonemont (Episcopal), preached at tho church yestorday morning from the fol- lowiug text: A And Tio came and dwelt in & oity called Nazareth ; that it might be fulfilied whick “was spokon Ly the tho proplets, He sball bo called a Nazarene,~att, Nazareth is not montioned n the Old Testa- ment or iu Josephua ; but reference is first mado to this town in our text. Therefore it has no bhistorle importance until it becameo celebratod aa tho early abodo and Lome of Jesus, But ita connection with the hintory of Christ duriug his childhood aud early mavhood is quite sullicient to give ita hold upon the imagination and the feelings of men which it shiares only with Bethlohom sud Jorusa- lem. Tho town is situated in a boautiful valley upon the slope of & hill which is connected with the southern ridgos of Lebanon, just bafora they sink down into {he Plalnof Esdaelon, Tho ptaco had always enjoyed a great colobiity for ita wonderful beauty, fortility, aud g~ clugion. Of the ideutification of the an- clent slto thero can bo no doubt. The name of the modern town of Eu Nazirah is aboat tha samo aa It formerly was ; it ie within tho Prove inco of Aaliles—it is near to Cana, ns Bt. Juhn also fmphes; a precipica still exista in tho veighborhood ; aud, finally, a sorios of testi- monies reach back to Euseblus, the fathor of ecolesiastical history, which reprosent the place ay baving oceupied an invarisble position, The modern Nazaroth Lelongs to tho hetter class of Enstern villages. It Las o population of betweon 9,000 and 4,000, of whom » fow are Moham- medaus sod tho romainder Katin or QGreok Christlans. No great voad hag ever passed throogh 1t to conuect it with othor places of imporianco, It ia in- closed on one side by a ridge of rock from whenae the Bavior was to have Leen precipitated at ouo time by lus infuriated countrymen. In the distanca, shout 80 miles uorthward, may bo adon Mount Hormou.

Lut his great genor- osity was manifest in sdopling the Bons of hix Lrother Alpbeus for liis owncluldren, as we hava somo conridarable ovidonco to provo that he did. Mo Holy Scriptures give us but very mangrs information concerning tho enrly life of Jewia, Uiis bistory during tlus poriod 18 ecomprehonde.t within & “few brief sentoncen. —Human curi- osity desirea to Lo gratified with more completo dotalls, Hopee mavkiid havo resorted to fictitioun storien concerning this interesting period, Htranga storios nra narrated concerning the boyhood of Joaus in an apocryphol Gospet, which _waa written 1n the Aravic lauguage by somo Christian some timo about the mixth cei tury. The tradition tolls us many curioas inci- dents concerning the miraculous proveibs of tho child Jesus, At ono timo, a3 we are told. the chiildren wera engagod at play ; thoy wera making imnges out of clay ; they contrived figures torep- resont oxen, aseos, sbeop, aud sparrows, and they wero viciug wit cach other in the IJaudable contention to ece which should mako tho bost images. Jeaus also made soma figit-es out of elay, and told the boys ilo would’ nuw compel them to move s His command. Ac- cordingly 1Io Lade thom go andcomo at His will and the figures oboyed His beheat, - At anothor time wo aro informed that the boys choso Him for their Kivg {n play. They extem. porized a mumic throno, and epread their gar- monts upon tho carth for a earpet, end placed a crowa of flowors upon Iis ead. And cvery ono who happened Lo be paseing by they compelled to do homago to their King. At length a Loy Liad been bitten by a poisonous reptile in tha adjoining forcst, and the childron apnealod to Jesus to boal him ; but ile cummanded that tha lad should bo conveyed back to the woods by hia attendants, that they should drivo the snakoa from s nest under the rock, and compel him to euek out tho poison from the wound. They did all this at tho cowmand of Jceus, and no rooner had tho serpent sipped the poison iuto bis own wystew than it swellod np, burst ssander, and died. ‘thoso pleasing fictions ure also minzlod with accounts of other actions which had tho character of boing cruel and revengeful rathor than kind sud mereiful, “laus, for instanco, wo ara told by an apocryphal gospol written by @ vpercon by Lbo namns of Thompson, in tho Greok lasguage, that ju re- turning homo at one timo Josus wus accidently mob by a carcless boy who ran againat Him and theroby threw Mun down. Iinmediately Josus said to him whenlo arose: ** You have upssi we, aud now I will overturn yoi, mever mord Lo rigo.” Prosently tho boy eickoned. and eoon after died. Indeed, 1t i3 said by tho same un- reltablo writor that Jesus bocame g0 mischiovons sith the uso of L3 supornatural powor that tho neighbors complained to Josaph about his ex- treme maliciousness. Ilia father gontly ropri- manded and admoniglied Ilim ; but Jesus roplied, “ I will hereaftor abstain from ncts of malico, cruelty,” and revenge, on thy account; but my sccusers who have Dronght to you complainta of my behavior ehnll ro- ceivo tholr _own proper rocomponso.” Consequontly Iis accusers wero all smition with b:ix;duuu; but Jesus sftorwards restored their sight. Thesa anecdotes sorve to show tho great dia- panty between s gouunlug aud authentic gonpol and owo whicls i3 spuriods, 1t teaclies us what kind of Innguago aud materials uninsvirad men would have chosen for the composition of their gospels, They would bhava given us bombast in- stend of plainneas; thoy would bave writtou incrediblo fictions Instead of such sime l)lo truths as tho evangoelists havo written. ustead of profound and celestial wisdom, thoy would have given us nothing but folly and nonaouso. Their writings possess evident marks of their human origin ; whilo tho works of the Apostles bave characteristics which aro oqually evident that thoy aro divino. Wo are {nformoed by tho sacred bistorian that Josus grow in wis- dom aud 1n stature, and in favor with God and nan, Boyond thia'the gonuino gospels tell us_| nothing nbout one period of His lifo, which Insted for cighteen yoars—from the &ge of 12 years to tho age of 380, when Ho cu- tored upon the active duties of Iis mimstry. All that wo learn of Him for the on- tire period ia comprehended in ono single son- tenco. Nothing moro was. nocessary, excopt to gratify an idle curiosity, which it Is not the pur- paso of tho Seriptures to do. It was tho object of tho Evangolist to givo an account of thebirth aud lineage of Josiy morely, together with & brief intimation of His coudition during the period of s minotity. They wero required to spond thelargest portion of theirlaborain describ- ing His charactor, in narrating His wordsand Ills miraculous doeds aftor His actual entrance upon the duties of tho ministry; for thess wers tho Jmain subjects which it concerned tho spiritual intorests of men ta knaw. There is sometning #ad 1 tho very sound of tho namo of Nazareth, whenever wo “hear It moncionod. Jeaus nover visitod this placo but twics aiter em!rlnF upon tho ministry. The firat time, fmmediatoly aftor being baptized by Johu, buraing with new zeal and inflamed with earncst anxtety for tho salvation of Iia countrymen, Ho wentto His pative village and préachod the gompel in their pypagoguo, DBut as o himself hath maid, *' A prophet isnot without honor save fn Jus own country aud among his owu kindred,” He loft them at this time and returned to_preach to them again aftor His fame bad aprend throush sl tho country ; when His miracles and wonder- ful works had raised Lim to a high dogreo of eminence among mavkind and bad placed Him npon the summit of His carthiy glory., At ona timo Ho piéached from tho words of thie prophoc of Ieainh and appliod the langusgoe to 1Nimnself.
