Yesterday's Mestings at the Tabornacle and Farwoll Hall Largely Attonded. Two Practical and Pointed Ad- dressos by Maj. Whittle, He Shows Himself to Be the ‘Worthy Comrade of Mr, Moody, How the Good Work Goes on in the City Chuxches. FARWELL ITALL. A RBLIOIOUS MOVEMENT n Uhfcago which implies the laying ‘of street- railwags to the peace of the mectings, and the purchase of 200 additional ecars for thie accom- modation of the worshipers, Is an event which challenges the deepest attention of all classes of thoughtful people. In view of the absence of Mr. Moody at the funcral of his brother in Northiicld, Mase,, the morning meeting which had been ndvertised at the Tabernacle at8 o'clock was changed to ‘Farwell Hall, and the two meetings at 4 and 8 p, m. were Joined Inone at the first mentloned hour. This cautious policy was not justified by the results. A very large meeting of Chrisilan workers were early at the hall, while streams of peopls who had not heard of tha change in the programme were all the mora- ing coming and going to and from the Taber- nacle. The afternoon meeting was one of the most successful yet held, and might have been repented {n the evening with Maj. whittle to speak and Mr. Baukey to sing. The anxlous bicarts of the ministers have been reassured; it fs not ‘Moody, but God, who is reviving 1lis work in the hearts of this people. The abscnce of the leader was painfully felt at first, but at the morning meeting it became cvi- dent thatMaj, Whittle was very much at home in taiking to Sunday-school teachers and other aetive Christians, while his ofterncon discourse, or, more properly, Bible-reading, was with thie demonstratlon of the splrit and with power. Henceforth this Chitngo cvangelist will take rank among usaas n workinan that needeth notto be ushamed, rightly dividing the worl of trath. Like Mr, Moody, hie i8 n lsyman; was formerly the Bcerctary of ths Elgin Wateh Cotnpany, which prolitable place he’ resigned three years ago to devote himsclf to savlue souls. Siuce then he has been remarkably suceessful as an cvangelist, and was only waiting for the are rival of the Englislt and_ Irish brethren, and the more perfect organization of the revival came palgn, to start on another tour of mectings In #omic of the chiel cities of the'Northwest, ~ His presence ot this time Is providential. He {s probably tho only man equal to the emergency, and his work yesterdsy was both o revelation and o surprise, There wns a lnr;iu attendance of ministers at the 8 o'clock service, who bad cvidently taken thefr own advice and rallled to the support of the revival work, which was felt tobein n critieal condition. ~ Mr. Sankey wasat the organ and Prof. Stebbins wias on the platform with n large detachment of bis choir, Sluging by Mr, Sankey, that beautiful solo: Draw me nearer, bleased Lord, "To the Cross where Thou hast dled. “ Wark, for the Night Is Coming,” by the whole congregation; prayer by tho Rev, Dra, Thompson and Chamberlaing sud then Maj, Whittle began hls remarks at Phil. I, 24; * For unto you it {s given nthsbehalf of Chirlst not anly to” believe on Ilim, but also to sufer for His suke.” TOE ADDRESS. This passago of Seripture has come tome in view of the greatresponsibility which I8 so un- expeetedly Jald upon me. It Is patural under the creumstances that we should feel a degreo of depression and a painful sense of responsi- blity, in view of the work In which wo uro en- gaged, withour leader suddenly called away frow the head of our columng but wo are dolog this work with faith in Jesus Christ, and it is our duty not only to belicve In ILhn, but also ta suffer with Him. In theeleventh chapter of Numbers Moecs fsin great depression, Tho people began to murmur against God for want of fiesh to cat and Moses says unto the Lord, %1 wn not able to bear all this people alone, be- cause {t j8 too heavy for me. And if Thou deal thus with me, klll ine1 pray Thee, out of hand I I have found favor in’ thy sight, and let mo not sce my wretchedness.”” "Moses was o typo of Christ, but Clirist wns greater than he, for Christ carried the whole world fu His arms, and Ald not complatn, o bore oursins; He car- ried oursorrows. The Lord had compassion on Moses amd gavo him _seventy men to help him judge the people, and to these men he gave o portion of the splrit which was upon Moses, and they all prophesied in the camp, They ha a special gift} so also lad the seventy Disciplea which Christ sent out_beforo Him.

But now that the dispensation of the Splrit has began, not only Barnabas, and Peter, and Btephen, but all who have faith in the gloritied Sunof God, may have the baptism of the Holy Ghost and of power. 1le Lias griven us a proof of this in taking our brother out of the husiness-housca of Chieago und anofnting him to Prcm.-h salvation with the power of the oy Spiclt, Let us try to obtain adefinite ides of this glle of power. It is not the same ns the 1t of conviction of sln, or of converalon, or of assurance of pardon; these are all gifts of tho same gpirlt, but the gift of power ia a speck outiaourhu; upon_tho soul that fully dovotes itself to Christ, and fully believes In Hlm as the risen and gloritied Son'of God, After establishing this doctrine by pleatiful Scripture references, the speaker urized tho no- cessity and duty of being baptized with pow- er through faith in tho Bavior, not asin the cross, not a8 {n the tomb, but 2s now seated at the r{;:hl. hznd of tha Futher, from 4rbence ha shall ‘como again to judge tho quickund the ead, ‘The Mayor then closed tho exerclses with prayer and the benegiction, THE TABERNACLE, THE AFTERNOON MEETING.

We liave no knowledge of God except throngh this wituess. But tlis withcas testilles of Iiis Justice, of His merey, of His love and compns- slon, of His willinguess to forgive sin through falth in the blood of Ils Son—mniare proof texts right to the point. We know nothing sbout the future except through this witness, Who knows austhing about Heaven except what Christ has tatght iim?_ Iave the astronomers been able to find {t!

You must do one of the two things, cither nm:v: Hls testimony - or {mpeach the witnees; and this is just what” infidelity has been trying to do for 1800 years, and has failed. ‘The great sin of the world is rejecting the tes- thnony of God's Son.

My frlends, bear in mind that the testimony of this witness mitst stand, It will stand for you if you accept His offers of graco and pardon, and through faith fn His name become a child of God; it will stand ugainet you it you continue to reject His en- tLreaty to come unto IUm; it will stand ogainst you liere, and it will stand againt you when the tead shail be ralsed and are judged out_of the things which aro written In the Book of Life. 4 He that belicveth in the Son of God hath the witness in himself.”” IIave you this witucss in yoursclyes that you arc u true bellever in Christ? If mot, there stands His testimony agalust you as a ehiner, lost, condemned, fn danger of cternal death, Let me entreat you to accept the truth which this witness tells you, and act upon it. 'Then the revelations of eternity will be according to His sure word of romise. * There remainoth, therefore, a reat or the people of God.” ‘The sermon cuded in = prayer, followed .with tho benediction, At tho close, prayer meetings wers held (n the two largs Inquiry roowmns, holding about 800 people each, both of which were fllled. A deep and_prayerful spirit sccmed to pervade the whole nsscinbly, which foumd carncat expres- slon In these after meetings. THE EVENING MEETING. ADDRESS BY TUE HON.
