T the Editor of The Chicazo Tribune : Cmrcaco, Oct. 8.—I observe that you kindly extend tbe courtesy of your columns to those who seem to be interested in the Tevival of pure snd undeflled religion. May I ventureto tres- pass on your space for a fow thoughts on the same subject 2 Daring tho whole of the sixteen wocka of the London meetings, under the minis- trations of Jessrs. Moody and Sankes, it was my great priviloge to be noar to them ali the time, and to assist, in some little measure, in the order and management of thoss services. I feel, therefore, competent to spenk as to the subject of Mr. Moody's preaching, as Well &8, to some extent, upon the effect of that preaching upon the pubtic mind and morals. Very promineat amongst the points on which Mr. Moody luys special emphasis are these, pamely : That tho loveof God extends to the whole human race; that the giftof His dear Son, our Savior Joeus Christ, is the measare of this great love of God to man; as our Redeemer and Tescher; that the firrt man sioned against God, aud thus brought sprritoal end physical ruin upon himself ana upon all his posterity; thatonly throngh the willing snd scceptablo sacrifice of Christ, in the giviog up of His spot- Iess lifo upon the cross, can be restored to man the logs of the life which mankind bassustained, and withont which they try in vain to improve their condition until they accept the terms of God’s grace, as made koown in the New Testa- ment; that this condition is repentanco to- ward God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ; tbat without the acceptavce of this condition all men who hear the Gospel, are dealt with a8 rejectors of God : and that they continue inthe state of moa-spiritual lite foraver ; that there is therefore no pro-pect for the impenitent but the blaciness of dark- pess forever, where the worm never dieth, and their fire is not quenched ; that it is the will of God that all men should hear and believe the os- pel-of His salvation: that there is no obstacle in the way of any man’s eterual salvation from sin and damoation bnt that whichis foundina man’s own will ; that the instant a sinner looks to God, through belief of tho message af tho Gospel, he 1s at ouce pardoned and restored to God's favor, and is accupted a8 one of His dear children ; that where this chenge is experienced, the person 8o couverted is under law to Christ to lead a new and holy life before God and all the world ; that purity, trath, honesty, and char- ity, must continue to abound in every such porson’s life, o that thenceforth the convert walk so 88 to plesse God: that any one naming the name of Christ, or what is called making & profession, and, at the same tixme, not departing from all iniquity, i8 nothing but o liar, & decolv- er, and a hivpocnite, to be shuuned by all men; ihat obedience to Christ, the dlaster, calis for duily fsithfuloess in His service, not ia merely religious matters, but in the most common things of overy-day existence; that ali worldly pleasure, such as that which caonot be pursued Yo the glory of God, mustbe wholly given up, and will whon the mav sceks to know the mind of the Master ; that intemperance, covetowsnces, indifference to the sorrows and misfortines of men, and niggardliness towards the need: and the afilicted, will, and must, all disappear,ind be substituted by temperance, humagity. gomwosi- ty, self-eacrifice, Liberality, and charity tovards all men. I might easily add to_the catalogue, andro- long the statement of points so much igsistecon in Mr. Moody's preaching. But theso will save to expresa the characterof the discoursesof your fellow-townsman and_his true, sweet-sig- ing compsnion, Mr. Ira D. Sankey. 5 T koow as a fact that this kind of preachinga the City of London, Eogland, has been followq by & most outspoken change of life in many some of whom were infidels, skeptics, begzars speudtbrifts, snd horse-raciog betting mens women of the lowest cast; men who owned and Fho lived on the proceeds of the dog-fighting! pit; clowns from the circus; and men whose urée of life had been the wine-cellar and beer- snloon. I have heard the lips of old fathers praise God for sons reclaimed from vice and Tolly: and mothers give thacks for daughters rescued from the paths of the destroyer. If it Were & question of mere veracity, I would, at s cost of some little trouble snd time. put into your hands the names and addresses of some of ‘oach of tho classes of the converts I have allud- ed to in this enumeration. True, Mr. Moody teaches thatall men need the same sacrifico for their sina - bat he also de- clares the ever-readiness of te great God to re- ceivo all who come witk frue heerts to Him. Farther, Alr. Moody dows DOb pander to any class of people. He has tte same Gospel for all Who . Nor doer the presence of the * groat” bear Lim. N0 o the people who fora nis sud- ence seem in che very elightest degree to mown him to anr modification of his_statements or o tonaderation of their exalted rank. e preached on. Grace,” in my hearing, be- foro the Princess of Wales with tho same plain- oling, earnest bolduess sud faithfuiness as 1 have bim a€ a0y of the hundreds of times Yove listenod to bis voice in Eagland. ooy is igid _observer of the Lord's- dsy and a whole-hearted tetotaler. He neither O les the tobacco-pipe nor chews the cud; and 18 no ‘‘dier-ont.” He conld have had choico of thousands of the richest homes of Great Britain, a3 places of call, but he seldorn went, and never whea he bad other work for the Master. He could easily have come k to ‘America possessed of many thoussnds of dol- jars, and I believe he came as he went: & man poor in this Iife, but rich towards God, and in 0od works. G I had no grest liking for Mr. Moody, nor over- much good-will towards his work at the begin- ping of his miseion in England, now over two years ago. lamat this moment only hke huo- dreds of thoussnds of British subjects who Soald williogly risk the losing of their lives to gave him if in peed of our belp. Iake these, 1 love him for his work's sake, and for notbiog else. None more worthy. I have watched hun closely for & long time, and was preseotat his Jast parting in England, and sleo one of his fel- Jow-paseengers over the Atlantic a few weeks ago, sud I can say that 1 regard him as & manof disioterestod aims, ana of a loviog natare, hoo- orable, kind to a fault, snd fall of zood will to all men. Mr. Moody 18 no cut-and-dried, sancti- ‘monious, canting pretender, but a real, gonuine, ontspoken Christisn. He took s part With the otber passengers in tho healthy exercises on board the steamer, with which every traveler is well acquainted who crosses the Aulantic Ocean ; and was always magoanimously able to rejoica over the success of &n opponent in 8 game of ‘“shuffle the toards;” and, when not takini his needed ex- ercises that wsy, he was plsyiog with his own ano Daily TEibune. NUMBER 33. or #ome one elge’s children all round the ship, while at the same time he was ever on the watch for opportunities of cowneading the Gospe! to all oo board: and the same thinga are true of Mr. Sankey, who deservedly won the good-will of sil who had the pleasure to bave been in his ocompany. A3 t0- the muititndes who flocked t¢ hear these mon in London, surely the history of the religions world affords no ex- ample since the days of the camol-haired proph- et in the wildernoss of Judes. Having occasion one night to go outsids of the Agriculturai Hall, in the north of London, I encountered disap- pointed crowds who failed to gain an entrance, ‘which I then estimated at 20,000, and there were then some 17,000 within the hall. ‘There is nothing barvh, illiterats, inelegant, rude, extravagaat, or wild,in any of Mr. Moody’a discourses. He does not give the least counts- nance to any kind of excitement. and I koew of a wounded-hearted woman compelied to weep aloud in one of the meetings, who sesmed to distress him. The whole of the meetiugs, in all their arrangements. partook of a very busi- nees-like character. The thousands whoat dif- forent times sought religious connsel were dealt with in a calm, co0l, earuest manoer ; and all appeals to the passions were disconntenanced. There are thousand and one places whera Moody aud Sankey would be welcomed to-dsy in the old conatry, and those who know tiem best would ive them the warmest welcomo lack. ‘This i8 a pleasant theme to me, but L must desist. when Ieball bave added one thought as to the foolish idea of Mr. Moody not beiog an ‘* edu- cated man.” Well he has not had & uoi- versity training, it is truo, but he has becn g0 well educated eomewhers that tho leading legal fanctionary of all the British Empire has sac day aftor day at hus feet and draukin his words. It is attnbuted to the Lord Chaacellor of the British House of Peers that he declared that ho had not heard the Gospel so well and perfectly preached in all his lifo uatil o heard Mr. 3foody, snd Lord Cairus is a gift- ed, accomplished scholar and & religious man, and he thus found pleasure in turning aside from the eloquent debatea of the noblewen of, England, to listen to Mr, Moody a8 the greatest preachers of theage. I beg to subscribe my name, with much respect, as yonrs truly, J. SamiNg RNTGHT. it EVIDENCE OF THE RESURRECTION. REVIEW OF JUDGE EOOTIL. T the Edutor of The Chicago Iribune: Cuaxparax, TiL, Oct. 13.—Judge Booth in his late discourse before the Philosophical Sosiaty of Chicago finds fault with the testimony of the Evaogelists, as well concerning the fact of the crucifision s the resarrection of Christ, for the reason, among others, that thev do nou agreo precisely a8 to the words employed to make up the superscription which, it is alleged, was placed upoa the cross. Itis o favorite practice among Judses to de- cide no moro than may be neceseary to dispose of the case, and it is somewhat surprisiog tuat the Judge did not follow this rule in the present case. The objection stated by him, a8 above re- ferred to, would, if it has any force as praof, disprove the allaged fact of crucifiion, which ot courss would Jeave no room to bs tronbled about tbe resurrection. As to this superscription, the Judge is not consistent_with his daily practice 288 Judgo or lawyer. If it is a conversation ha requires shezo evangelists to use the precise words of the person speaking them, in order to entitle their statements to belief. e utteriy 1gnores his own as well as the practice of all other courts, to receive as evidence, and ir-deed a8 proof, not the exact langusge used, butin most cares the substance of what was said; and that the same rule is applied by him in the due administration of justice when lost writings are involved Idoabt not. The discrepancies which he complains of doexist. Ergo, the whole story is {alse, and behold, there was not in fact a cruci- fixion! Bat farther the Judge seems dcicrmived to array Judge Booth the Judge against Judge Bootn the philosopher to the full extent of ail bu common sense professional and official life. In this case bacanse of discrepancies in tho state- ments of the witnesses, Le.refuses to bLelieva any, all, or either of them. Jones va. Smith is called for trial. Tha form- er swears that the latter owes him $1,000. The Iatter swears he does not owe the formor any- thing. Thisis all the evidencs in the case. He must find M verdict on this ewidence or the & court is bung,” and since the preponderanca of proof is not, in the estimation of legal in- quiry, found in the greater number of witnesses (necessarily), he may find in favor of Jones. He must belicvo the ono or the other, and doos believe, and that in the face of mors thaa mere discrepancy, {lat, noquahfied contradictiop. and :;t:dh eu the frequent official experiencé of tho ge. "1 thiok the Judgo will find it impossible dur— ing his professional and official experience ta recall any considerable pumber of instances which two or more persons have testified to the same transaction 1nvolving words and-acts in which the witneeses have agreed precisely as to what wa said and done, and yot in most of these Iam Tule sure ho was fully convinced of the Tmain fact in the caze, ond acted uvon the cer- tainty” of its truth.

Dis- crepancics in the statements of witnesses are 50 common that no one exyects anything else, and 80 nnusual s a perfect agreement in all respects that the fact of agreement itself 18 ratber a bad%e of collusion and imposition then exact truth, Itissafe to esy that almostevery fact foaud through the agency of humsd testinony is arnved at through discrepancies, icconsisten- cies, and denials.
