Thompaon proached the following sermon last ovenlog to a large congro- gation {n the Fifth Presbyterian Church, comer ‘Chirtieth straet and Indiana avenue, taking for bLis toxt: Creato in oe 8 clean heart, Oh! God, and renew a right 6pirit withinme, Caal mo not away from Thy presence, and take nui Thy Holy Spirit from me, Je- atose unfo mo tlie joy of Thy ealvation, and uphold mo with Thy freo spirit. Then will 1 feach trans- i‘rulm Thy ways, and ainners shall bo converted un- o Theo,—Pralms, lf,, 10-13, I prapose to discnas with you to-bight the question of s revival of religion. e who touchos upon this quostion mow befure any as- rembly of church-going pooplo can hardly fail of sympathetio attention. I thiok I have never known g0 wide au intercst to he feit in a rovival beforo as yot any special signs of it appeared as 18 manifest now. Thoro is a¢t presoat no revival of rclgion in this city; uo general re- vival anywhere in the land. Yot o religious awakening {a the subject of goneral conversation, Moo atand looking with largo falth into the near future lke those who watch for suorise. Not only is the earnesincss or this roliglous outiook in » time of no special religlous interest remarkablo, but the general oharactor of it {s also worthy of notice. 1t in wide and pervesive boyond any thiog we have ever known. Of courso the Church should al- veays look with faith aod hopo toward God. It would bs & disgrace to her if she wero not often on the mount of tho prophet's vimon, watching for the cloud no bigger than a man's hand, For thersunto Is she called, ‘T'o tho man who belioves the Biblo, a revival of religion, broad as tho earth and deop as hu- man wants and woes, shonld be tho burden of perpetoat prayer. To the man who rests on God's word, & revival of religion should be not only the thing of supremost desire, but of most natural faith. Promisos that give the earth to e the new Kingdom of Josus Christ; that weave their golden light around the dark world till it shines in the robes of & coronation day, when Christ shall crown bumanity with His own dignity and glory, should lead tho Christian’s faith to expect broader, fuller, doepor revivals. Ho should oxpect thom with a quict assurance itke that with whicn tho sailor in the harbor waits for the tidal wave after the atiracting moon has swept in etately powor above him, The Christian who bas read Church bistory sod belisves it is the unfoldiog of the thought of God among men, should not ouly expect ravivals but work for them in the confldence that God owns faitbfal labor and heara importunate prayer. He ‘should seo in them the movemont of » Jlaw mot uulike that which conditions the broadth of tho harvest on the fidelity of the sowing. Thorefore we say the Church shonld not only always expect s ro- vival, bat ever work for it as the consummation ot Church enorgy and faith. atill, tbe Church hss not siways done thls. Bhe bas alapt poaceful in barren flolds. Bhe ba: beon contont with empty lLands and garners. Qtten has been happy with only & name ta hive, Orten the locks of her sirength had by indolonce and slumbor boon shorn away. Lut now we are sare wo da nat ovaratata when wo say that tharo is throughout all the Church in_this city & gon- oral and oarnest deaire for mnd confident ex- pectatlon of & rovival of retigion. Dot only so, the desire extends boyond the Ohurch.” The people Who mako up our congro- gations but are not profeasora of religon ataa ox- pect it. It ia the toplo of convereation in circlos where religion usually has Hitle sbare, Tho dafly press not only noticea thia dritt of expoctation, buc froely lends ita great power to the work, The New Yark Eucning Post s fow wooks sgo devoted n leader to the quostion, and expressed most forcibly the conviction tbat tho groat want of tho Amstican peoplo now {4 a ro- vival of ulIFlon i mod suggeated. in very aenai- blo counsels, tho way io which such s revival might be promoted. Qur awn duily press has recognized the need of 1t in one way and asoth- or, and one of our papers i4 now giving dally re- ports of prayar-moetiuga aud other religlous gatherings, under the expreased conviction that wo noed & revival that shall cause honesty, puri- ty, and gogeral morality to take tha place of dis- honesty, impurity, and genersl immorality. What, now, aro the roasons for thus wide ex- pectation? Wuy do Christtans and poople ot the world vio with each otber in saying (from different standpoiats, pahape; but yet siucaralyy a rovival is tbo prime moral domand of this counkey ? ‘Thero aro threo general conslderations which have combined to diYuso abroad this provailing nentiment, Fiist, it {8 s recoll from (ko tendeucy of skeptical thought. Ihave on previous Sab- Latua not long since called your atteation to the terminus of much of the apeculation of onr day. Consider now for & momant how thoss spec tions become self-curative. ‘Thors is a point at which they touch the practical life of religion in & moat ualutary aod hopeful 1t is the poing whera the godless loglo infringes on the moral seuss of the community. God bas built up a rock coast-line to redtyain the vagsries of humnn thought. When thoss vagaries run the length of Mill, or Comle, they como up sgainst the buiwark of the world ; moral consciousnens, that hurls them back. When men take awsy God, ~—when Nature is tmnade a cold and stately pyra- mid of law, whoso central chamber 1s the vauit in which the Grest King is buried,—theu comes the reaction, not essily aionsed, but ircoulatible whos once It moves, of the heatt of the world, which is ever in leagua with & faith in God. Thls is the ground-swell following tho sgitstions of madern thought, and Liftiog the deopast feelings of men toward an older sud unconauerable faith in God. This resction will bo increaaingly pow- erful as the tendency of materialistic thought es more apparent. ‘The moral ssose of the world may not bo much touched h, tbs {ovestipatione end | conclusious ol Darwio, aolong as God ialefs as the begluniog MONDAY, of the development lino—tho sfficlent personal Caune of all ita marvelous unfolding, Hut when the ogic of ovolution ia pressed toits oxiremont vorgo, and a molenulo or a protiplasm suvplies the place of a (lod, then the noul of man flies in the face of that logic, and, were It tenfold more adamantine than it s, slnvera it to pioces, Ba we ary this domand for the recognition of God b the affairs of men I8 tho naturai result of the antecedont phtlosopic depial of (lod.

"To the induction of the skeptic it may have oo angwor, thetefote it duoa 1ot tako the foim of au argument, ‘Uho Tevival of an inteliectual faiL does not therefore comn in the shape of & philosophy to overturn panthesm or material- iam. that road in too long and crooked for the Impatient toul, Tho sous han wings, aad, apurn- iug tho deeert road that winds amoug the rocks of npecnlation helow, it Miew through mid- hisaven 1ho straight line of (aith and postulates tho cxistence of a living Almighty Gud as the beginuing and end of Iteasun.” Ho tho re- vival of (utelloctual faith comes at last by tho short, straight road of foohng. And theroforo §t takes its place bosida the moral and spiritual factors that make up tho expecta- tion of which wo are spoaking. Men atolocking for & revival of religion, becanss when acionca has baniabed God then tho soul expocts Him. It expocts 11im, 100, on tho 1ino of tecl.uz. 1t be- lieves in Ilis awlul powor to impress the con- sciousnees aven of thoss whose minds will not adwis His presonce. Not more certainly does the pendulum ewing back from its” high- ent elovalion to & corresponding one on tho otber eide than does tho world from its hours of intellectual doubt swing oversgain to n deep aud bLearty faith, Up agalost tho storio-linos and suow-arilts of win- ser the apring will press bor rosy feet, aud mark bor steps mtb the blo.m of lily and10se, Nay, tho bloow aud fintit wiil be all ‘thy richer for tho depth of winter snows. Iie who sliould cast the horoscapo of tho woila's faith iu God from tho uheerless speculntiona of Spencer, or tbe godlees fauaticiam of Cowmto., might woll despair of ro- ligion. But ail humapity sels towatd faith. At laat it flees from doubt nm from death iteolf. Upon this roacilon we have ent:rod now, and the booumbed moral seuse, rousing: tho lethargy which lad wispped 1t calls for the presouco of Gol. And mea, hardly knowing why. are asking, ** Whero isthe pramiss of His coming? " And the God they long for ia not tho reriduam of tho craciblo of selence, not tho equstion of mathematical demoastration, but the God who muves on the learts of mon, who kindles faith, aod bope, and love. Second--Auother consideration that explainy tho general lookiog for & revival is the con. scicuco-teaction from public immoraity. 1 need not linger long upon thia point. The lovg registors of crime with which tha daily |.ross abounds are but a partial sud superiicial showing, ‘They are ths outward aod vio.ent manifeatations here and thero, of tho flery surge that #o largely porvades toe social and pubiic lifo of America to-day. Tue ssddest isuot that crimo brosks out in high places or low, that the dockets of the Courts ansl cells of piisons aro full, b3t tbat these are but symp- toms of & goneral dtcadence of morals,—na 1003 oning of thio bands of mora! law aud s stalk ng abroad seccretly or opeuly of a spirit or dis- lonesty. impurity, intemperance, sud every form of vica that a:o perlous slige to Church aod Buate.

Business Lifo 18 t' » mania for wealth—at whatever dishonest coat,—social life is the passion for display,—and aven churca-lilo in oftou only saoctimonious ecitishoess, or bape tized ambition. Noiw, thoio is & conscience o tho human breast. There s a kind of genersl conscience. It may sle@h past tiligeand tuat moual defection, It may aveslook or be buud to thia or tliat lapse of wirtue. But it nover sur- sondors or abdicates. And sa in tho reformation awakening in Europe, though it be long appavently dead, it rings its volca B call to repentsuce througl the wilderneta of sin at last, ‘Lhe very densi- ty of the fotid moral atmosphore will give 1t vibrative porer. Once more it 18 the call of God. As from intellectusl doath, Ho awakes hu- mavity to & fsith in Him which it never has wholly lost; 4o fro.n this moral death He calls men back to 1nuate moral aistinctions, to a love of virtuo never wholly paralyzed, and & hatrod of vice never wholy dond.

In either case it may be equally sipcere. It s ho conscionce-appesl to God from the weaknoss and wickedness of the cioaturo, ‘The Christian ssys God must come dowp and stay this fearful ide. Hin spirit must tbrow sin into the dsylight, and hold up judgment in s torrible perspective. Aud the men of the world will say, * Call it the Holy Spirit,—or call it the seif-assorting moral power of the spirit of man,—but a quickening of morat perceptions aod an uplifting of the standard of mankood we muat have, or wo are lost.” o the Churcl and tlio world aliko feel the forca of this reaction of conscienco for pubdlic and gen- oral immoiality, and o it bsse a hope of some better day ahead. A third reason for the expectation of & revival of rebgion ie to be found in the tidings from Qreat Bntain, Boro and more tbe brotherbcod of msn asserta itsolf, The ocean bo louger di- wides the flow of religious sympathy and iuflu- ence, aven 64 its waves aro poworless to hinder the communion of business, The grest moral gulf-stream ssts from Britalu to our suoros now, And, sa the gulf-stream from the tropics wakes islands in tho higher latitudes into sud- den bloom, so lhulfood uews from Eogland, 1reland, and Beotland, can hardly fail to bo wiih- out s quickening effuct on us. “Who can hear tho jubilacés that ewell out from Victoria Hall without a switter heart-beat, sud aa inyoluutary prayer? Buch scenes as tho groat citles of ibe kingdom bave wituessed rouso again tho faith that had elambered, and litt up tue hope whuse eyos had drooped. "1hey tell us that God lives, that Hoe anawers rayer, that o {8 wiling as aver to pour out Y!iu Bpinit upon all Hewh. Not ouly 80, but thoy toll us that our ideas of slow growth are tho cluldren of our unbelief; thst God can suddenly call thousands to Hia standard. Those glorious tidings bave been carried into evory town and bamlot in the land. Thej sre yet spirit facts, concerning sin aud grace—this world under the power of tbe nex¢—tho old nature conquered by the new, They are lupg like & message from God Himself into very ioma, Theyaro preschod abont in clnreh, talked of in tho car, pandared devoutly by beliovers sad wondertogly by unbe- liovere. No wonder thiey irreafstibly lead on those questions : **Why not here ? Is not this what our people need ? I8 not Gy lory in Americs a8 dear to Him as in Epgland "' Nowondor they turn the hearts of the people almost as oue face toward the beavena that hang aliko over both con- tinents, and the God who is averywhore presont. The threo moiives we have now alluded to ope- rate in different measure on different mnds, but all togsther are opaiative in prodaciag the expoctation of & general revival. And sccord- iug as one or $he othor predominates, [t detor- mines tbe kiud of & revival tuat is desired. ‘Thus it & man Is mosat deeply impreased by tho prevalonce of skopticlsm he will think mout sbout & quickening of the ideas that make for faith in the existenco and proviaence of God. s will want a sevival of couviction, and per- hiaps will sea in it the cure for all our troubles. gain: I & man bo dooply concerned In pui- lio welfars, and bave carefully measured the dengers that thresten a Hepublic for tho provaleuce of ambition and dishoposty, bs will want o rovival of the nghteousnces that esaltesh & nation.

Bsbold bow broad aud iuclusive s thing is o rovival of religion; bow many interests it represents; for Lhow many planes it may bs sincately considerd and desized. And let there be o Phariesism to bresk the grand acgord of this pra; Because I do not desira just the part of it that you desire, may I oot therefora stand by your sida and help to stay un your baade?

Huwbeit Jeaus auffered him pot, but said unte himi, Go bome to by frisads and tell {hens how great things the Lord bath dute for tuve.—iork, ., 18,19, My text teachos this truth : firat, that & man's homa Lias the first clsim on him, and the last, It ho gota aick of beast, or brain, or body, as this wan ald, aud wandoers awsy o get well, when ho once foels woll saough to take up the burden of | whores, or woia money or un!nm.

And he must go homo through all risksof lapeing, though there be & man in the world who is to bim a4 the very Christ tosave bim. and that men is ta one placa while his home is {n another. Ho must pot follow him and cleave to nm for tho power to be a man ; he must go home audcleavs to that and to God ; so tuat in.ono word there is no resson under heavan why a man shallnot 0 home when ho is once fit to live thore, oo matter how eacied the rensons may sesm to be, or how painful againet his return, Tho man from whose story my text [s taken had been pursoysed, a8 tho Seripturos aay, with s devil, by which we aro to understand in the simplest senda that ho wan wot bLis owo master. How be came to be poesessed [o this ugly wsy wo ahsll never know. Allwe can know corisinly i8 this, that when this dreadful power onco had its owa way with him, those about him cou!d not control bum at all ; ho took his own way {n spite of all they could do, and it was as sad and datk # way as wo can well imagine. He wou)d wan- der awong 1ho tombs and cut himsolf with gtoves, with some such idea perhaps in bis poor, dark mind as the proplicts of Daal hiad for cu:- fiuge tbemsolves on Carmel. It was in thus feacs {fui condition that Jesus found bim and restorod him to himsolf, giving back to Lim what Buab- pell calis **the sovereign keeping of i onn right roason.” sod then, when this 19 dove, he ‘wants to go wharevor hie Savior goew, to cleave to tim forever, aud morge kis separale soul su {ar as bie was nble into that divine soul which had caled Lim oub of darxvess into hLight, and so he inakes Lis prayer that be might be with Him, but Jesus saud, No, go home tothy fricads and tell them now great tuinga the Lord Lath dune for thee. And ic is not hard, I thing, to reshize in some deg-eo why the man did not want to go home, Sucu memories a8 be bad of it would be panfol boyond measure, expecialiy if, like that hapless man who died the other Jay on the Paciic coast, the evil spirit had entered into lum through the portas of his own will, and kept posseseion of bim mainly through hia own mis- conduct. No paiu in such a case could bo equal to that of meeting b8 old trionds sgaiv, and looking tbem in the face with the welta of the broken fettora on his wrists, and the outs sud gcars of tho flits oo bis bsggard frame. Ile wan well again, but the wight of the ofd places and old frieudn would bring up the past like a dreadfnl drosmi: 1t would be enough slmost to drive him back smong the tomus to face tbem, and with them tho awful shadows of something worse than death; and so he prased wbat 1o might be with Him who bad seen bim but a moment, and restorsd him to life and hight ; butJesus said, **Goback to thy home aud thy {riende,” it may be. too, as I bave hinted, that in any case hie hnd tois feel.ng of utter dependeuce on the man who bad wrought io bim such & wonder of Licaling, sud must go with Him that he might 'bo sb & to bold his own sgainst the evil sparit it it ebould try to master bim agaio, but what Jesus waid afterward to His disciples He said now in another way to this man: ** I is expediont for you that I go sway. Yon mast learn todo withont Ma in this nutwaid way, before you can really have Me with yon. Your power lies not in your depeudence on me, but on the holy spint ¢f Goed. You must go back where sou betoug. tako up your life again whers yua lost it, meet ‘your old frienda manfully, and take tho bittir with the aneet. You must gsther up the raveled loops of your life the best you can, and bogin azan to do the thiogs jon were duing beture yuu went all Wropg in the might of this uew manhood. Yoo must make full proof that you are restored to yoursslf by being & man, and not & moro ape pavage. Let Mo get out of tho way as aoon as possible, aud when you tell tha story of vour restoration _do not say what I have done, but what the Lord hath dope for you in Hia tender compassion, becanso thisis God's compassion thac Las found you vut, dispelling the darkness, breaking tue cuains, and openiog a new and Imni way through Mo Whereby you msy bo saved. Iof Miuve owa self can do nothing. The Father which sent Me, Ho doetb tho work, so you must go home aud cleave uot to Me aay mare, bot to tha Father." And we muost soe tho perfect wisdom and warth of this command i thin truth first of all ; That when once s man really bas & home that he can call his own in the best souse, then thero is no other place o the wide world whers be can live tosuch good purpose ss ho can right there, There may bo regions like some I bave seen in my abuence from you this summer, where s nobler landscape shall salute him as he walky forth in the morning, sod mingle it glory wi.h his dreams at might. The amenities of life may be finer in other piaces sban they are whore God has cast his lot, culiure and maduers may touch a loftier liue, libraries aud galleries aud other thingu he loves mav bein the germ only whers ho lives, wiuls whers be migbe lve ther may bave flowered art into s noble orfection, He may imagino that 1f o could go here and there snd meet this man of that in a friendly way, and lalk wih them iustead of eeeing snd’ hesring them through the distorted atolospberes of tho lec- ture-ioom, it might be as if be should ait with Boctates in Asbens avd drink in his wisdom fresh from the fountain; or that if ho could worsbip fo such & church and hear such & mao preach every Bunday. he would open the very Rates of beavou to bis noul, while tbose bo in compelled to hear cau only stumblo with him & hittlo way through the wilderness, with no opsa viston of the entrancing glory from ono year's end to soother. All this may he between tho lace where Lo lives and that whero ha thinks o would lave to live; but if this is his homes, if ho belong: here and mot rnndar. bis Jonging is an empty dream.
