To the Edilor of T'he Clicano Tridune: Crrcago, Oct. 30.—Prof. Swing will so0a be obliged to give up the church building on the North 8ide where ho now preaches, and if bo re- maics in Chicago some suitable place for him to preach in must be obtained. Chicago cannot af- ford to loge Prof. Swing, and if there be mani- fested in the matter what ia known tho world ovEr 08 Chicago spirit and enterpnse,” Chics- gomen will not permit the great Professor, recogpized as the profoundest thinker in the ministry, to leave Chicago. This i3 his home. Here ho has achieved his greatness. Prof. Bwing is a8 much a Chicago institution asis the Lake Tuncel. Itis well known that ho has a 8ou’s affection for Chicago, and will not leave us if he can belp it. Now, it is probable that, owiog to con- tinued ill-health, the Rev. C. D. Helmer, the able atd loved pastor of the Union Park Congregational Church will be compelled to va~ cato hia place there, and seek u more congenial climate and that abeotute rest in which alono is thers hopa of his permanent recovery. The necessity is & griovons one both to Mr. Helmer and to his congregation, who justly esteem him a8 an eloquent preacher and an excellent pastor. That it is, howover, & necessity, candor compols pastor and people to admit. The Ubnion Park Church is & large and beaatiful puilding, having as fine an suditorium a8 can be found in tho city. It ia also centrally located in the very heart of the city. 1t has nowa Iarge and intelfi~ gent momberehip. The church is, however, in debt. Its financial necessities demand that its pulpit be filled—znd filled at onco—by a popular and effective preacher, one with an estabhished reputation, ono whose character a8 a man and a preacher will securo at once the contidence of tho congregation, and fill the church to over- flowing. Prof. Swing is_the very man to take chargs of the church. The church is the very place for him. Prof. Swing, though not a bigoted belicver in the-infallibility of John Calvin or of his Apcstle Patton, and hence not a Reaperand Sower Pros- byterian, is 8 good Congregatiopalist. Iis doc- trines and beliefs a8 contained in his sermons are not essentially different from those held by the leading divices of the Congre- gational Cburch. He can fill the Union Park Church with the finest and best pasing audience thatcan be gathered together in Chi~ cago. In aadition to the present members of that church, 100 men can be found iu a day who will sgree to pay from 8100 to $250 esch an- nuslly wto the coffers of that church if Prof. Swing be called to its pulpit. Let this suggestion be sdopted and these most Qesirable results will bo accomplished : First—The Union Park Church pulpit will be filled by one of the most renowned preachers of tho world. _Sccond—Tho debt of the church will bo speed- ily paid. i : Third—Prof, Swing will bo farnished s beau- tifal, commodious, and contral church edifice. Fourth—Chicago will retain her great preacher in her midst. Let the Union Park Church at once take this matter into serious consideration, ond briog abont the arraugement suggested. ‘It furmshes ready snd slmost the only possible solntion of the embarrassments which threaten its continued existence 88 & church. Mr. Helmer having at heart the interests of the church, and aware that be canpot in the present state of his health do justice to himself or to the church, will, withont doubt, give the plan suggested his warm a; proval. R. 8. T.p- T REVIVALS. OUR MINISTERS AND THETE WORK. 7o the Editor of The Chieago Tridune : Caicago, Oct. 28.—I have noticed in your col- umos it has been announced that Meears. ‘Whittle and Bliss have been invited to come to our city and unite their efforts with ministers and Cbristians in creating the much-discussed revival of religion in our city as early aa pos- mble. Itishoped that, if this unusual course is begun and carried out, it will result in great good. One, however, would almost be led to suppose that, in consideration of the zcal with which our ministers havo labored to bring this about, they were well-nigh discouraged with their own efforts. Let us consider what dis- order and chaos would scon reign without them! But if they are gathered together all in one place for the object of revival, it is only for a limited time. Then let them be assured their efforts are appreciated asthey are, and that they are doing great and marvelous good here. What city can boast of more lesrned, faithfal rinis- ters than Chicago? Let ua take care, for every pow and then we are reminded forcibly to cher- ish and encoursge them, lest New England, whoze work it may sppear is nearfy all done up, may call and enccurage £oms away, or lest New York or Brooklyn ehall send forth the sum- mons, *Come and save us." From the latter city, good Lord deliver trem! Every pow apd then we hear them tappiry at our doors. Then should not the mul- titude of the words of our ministers be an- swered, by endeavoriog to practice more faith- fally their emnent Chnstan teachings from week to neek. < Sy Let not any one think me partial if I illastrate farther by speakiog of the eforts of & few awmong the maoy. Of those who hear the able extemporaneons discourses from the Rev. AMr. Bartlett, genial, whole-souled miniater of Chriet's example, 0o one will goon forget his words from the text: * Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” While ho encourages sil missionary work, especially that, waich we call foreign, be says 1t ia not expected! we shall all g0 abroad. but st home we sbail be- come missiouaries, where may ever bo found ob- jects of poverts, psin, avd pity. Tbose who listea to the powerful, unsectanian teachmes of Bishop Chevey, surely they go away feeling their hesrts are punted and made better. What more can well be given from any text which bas been portrayed from our earnest, hard-woriing Artbar Mitchell? Mr. Gibion’s sermon on '\Vords and the Spirit,” is indelibly impreesed, I am sure, upon tho besrts of all who heard if. Sllivan, our minister from Erin's Isls, the sound of whose words in condemnation of that + unjust Judge” is not forgotten, plesda for the Savior's cause 28 earnestly, if we bat think eo, 2s even Brother Moody. Let us pass to the, North, whers we find the eminent, aidily Bwing.Ate Rob. our-sculs stirred P NI 1 NUMBER 67. within us. by the war, as Mr. Swing shows ns how fallacious are all the argnmenss of a Bacon, Aristotle, or Plato? He carries us up above these clouds of unjust Teasoning to the vory feet of Jesus, the Som of Righteonsness. Mr, Collyer, although he gives us occasionally the ;' Clear Grit" on a Sabbath aftoruoon or even- ing, yet pleada with holy words. Wo won't cross over to-day to tell of the faithful Good- speed, Goodwio, Fellows, and many others oo the West Side. Why, just the work that is being dono there would be leaven enougn tc Iaige a revival unprecedented. Then let Moody and Saukey, Whittle and Bliss, continue to work where they may. When they come thoy will be Teceived most warmly. Letus endeavor, in the meantime, to practice what 13 g0 ardently preached. M. 8. G e MOODY AND SANKEY AT BROOKLYN. TUESDAY'S MEETINGS. The Brooklyn Tabernaclewas opened at a very early hour, and the throng of worshipers had completely filled the building whon tho service: began. More than 100 went a=ay tnable to flnd room. Mesars. Moody and Sankey were ths only persons on the platform. A largo number of clergymen were in the audience. Mr. Moody gave out the 125th hymn, “I waited for the Lord, my God.” Ho then asked allto uvite in silent prayer for persona whose requeats he read —a widow for the converson of her two sons ; a mother for her children, inclading s sick son; 8 sister for a drunken brother. Aftersard the Rev. E. M. Hawlay prayed for those who had made requests, alio for the fourteen young men who rose for prayers at the meeting of the previous evening. After a short sornion from tho toxt. ** Ask and 1t shall be given unto you,” Mr. Moody announced that there would be a few moments of silent prayer. and a large number arose and requested prayers for sous and dsughters. Some ladies asked for prayers for husbands, and one “*for 1 poor druvkard.” AMr. Moody then said that all who des:red to bo prazed for might rise. Noarly the whole congregation stood up, and 1o 3 voice choked with emotion Mr. Moudy prased that their names wmight be written in *‘the Lamb's Baok of Life,” and a chorus of ** Amens” came from the vast assembly. He algo prayed for the ciuldren of those present, for drunkards, acd infidels, and for the whole tongregation. Among Mr. Moody's rematius in_tho evening “I would lics to just weigh men. I wili put the scales up here. L. agine them haoging dowa from heaven 1n tus Dall, and wo to be weighed. Some iugnt say. *I bope you aro mot going to weigh mo by tuc oid Jewish law, the 'l'en Commandwents.” ‘Tues toll ua the Sermon on the Mountavolised those. But we read: *Think not that { am come to uz- 8iroy the law or the proghets; 1 am nui come to descroy, but to fultil.’ lustead of the law be- ing abolished, He lifted it thousand timey lugber when He came. Men ray they are not giuners. Let us be neighed in God's scaues and see.” Mr. Moody then cnumerated the vital parts ot cach of the Ten Commandments 23 tho weights to be usud in the weighiug and prowiny of Infidels and taeo misersnle soif- mea. rightcous Pbarisce wera then meia. plorically weighed by the spoaker, aud also ‘gomo ** professed” Christiwns,” who, 11 you find out thas they are professed Christiacs, Jou must go to sowe musty cuurch record.

Ho knew Christ conid heal huw, for be eaid **1f Thoa wilt,” and not ** if Thou canst.” Nothing plensed oar Savior so much as faith, He honored 1L at s1gint, paying oat the pure gold of His love and bleeziugy, But thero was also tho wan sicic with the palsy who had not tho same faith, Yet four other men bad; ctud hero is the koyoote for these meetings. They took him up and carried him away thruugh tua great multitude to the feet of Christ, and be arose, took up his bed and walked. Buat Christ first 8aid to him, **'Tny sins be forgiven thee,™ as though the paley of the soul was wore in need of cure tnau paisy of the body. “Those four men bad faith and God honored it. No it may ba with any of you four men who have faith. *You too can’ 8ave others, and wich true faita may leal the world to see wonderful things in Brooklyn. In the ovening the Rink was crowded to itsut- most capacity, and aaother overflow meeting wag held in the Simpeon Methoditt Episcopat Chrch, where Dr. Dursea conducted the services and— while Mr. Moody was presching st the large meeting—Air. Sankey sang. Following are passages from Mr. Moody's sermon : Man must become “ pricked to the heart.” Spur- geon saya that when aman becomes pricked to the Leart he dies. The old man diesand the new one iy born. O the man geta mad and eays, *1 won't ko tohear that manngain. I don't like what be says, It makes me feet 100 bad.” In otder to wake men up we must either get them mad or convert them—ons ox the other. (Laughter.) Itisasmucha commard to repent as o kep holy the Sablath day, not to lie, not toéwear, If any ote goesoutof thisball to-night withiout repenting, he or she breaks a commandmeat, A storm is coming that will sweep all befaro it; only thoee will be saved that will repeat. Tho desiructcn of Jerusalem swept off 1,109,008 Jews, but God took care of those who wers faiihful to Hum, Oae iu as surg uxthe other, Whatwasit onthe Day of Pentecoss that made the Jows 80 suddenly want to repawt? It waa the Holy Ghost, who showed thetn what a dresdfa} sin they bad comamitted in kiiling Corwt. Threo thoussad were baptized tlist day. 1 don't think Peter £nd Jobn slept miich that mght for joy. o . . I don’t iike 3 man who is scared ulo repentance, lie saflors in o storm, An hour beforo they Wece awesring; now they aro bolduwig a general praser- mceting; when the storm his passed they will oo swearing aguin, Supposs some one shauld shout Fire ! Lere. Many of you, I have Lo doubt, would repent untii yon got outside, nd found you were safs aud there was no danger, and then you would be 38 bad a8 ever agaln. Others say: '*Yes; what you say is good. But this is not my time. When God makea me feel then I'll repent.” Wo must repeat at once, We aze Dot to wait for our feclfngs. I cant control my feetinga. 1f I conld I would feel good all the time wouldit you? But wo can control our minds. I never saw s man who really wanted -to retarn to God, Lut God helpod kim. Supposo I walted 20 go to Chic cago, and am directed 10 the wrong trafn. Ey and by a fritnd comes along and tells me that the traln [ am in goes to Boaton. 1 don’t believe him at firat, but Lo convinces me. 1may feelas good or as bad a4 I want to, but f [ don's take my carpet-bus and get out of that train, Pm bound to go to Boston.
