With a view to_bring out the thought of the roper attitude of the soul while God 8 reviving: ils work, tho Major sclected tho account of Aunantas and 8apphira from the fifth chapter of the Acts, TIHE ADDRESS. In the chapter before this ono wo are told of a preat revival of religlon which was going on at Jerusalem, and we get o glimpse of that de- lighttal ecene whero “the young converts urc s3ling lands and other posyosafons, Bnd. bring {ng the money to the Apostles to help in carry- fug on the Lord’s work. But the dovil, who - terfered with God's flrat ereation, tried to apoll this new creation also; and, finding that he could effect nothing by way of persccution, he undertook to run te lnfant church from within, 'There were two peaple inside the church who Liad not been honest; they had s secret sl — thesinof covetousness,—and inatead of confeas. ingand torsakingit, they Kept #8in thelrhearta ns n dangerous eccret, “Whoever has a secret sina ifce a house with all its doors bolted and Lurred, but with 8 window 1ett unfastened, The thief will Lo sure to find it and enter, and thus &l the Tocks und bura witl be of no use. 8o the Devil will come in at the weal place where a secrect siufs Lid away and work his ruin in the soul.

THE TABERNACLE. TIE BVENING MEETIKO. An audicnee of 4,000 people were at the Tab- ernacle lost evening to listen to the preaching of Maj. Whittle aud the singing of Mr. 8ankey, and for the further purpose of holding tho fort till the return of the chief so snddenly called away. The cholr were out fu full force, and sang thelr very best, the hymns belog, *Yield Not to Temptation,” * Light in the Darknces," and * Puil for the Shore." Mr. Sankey sung, as neolo, that Orst favorite at tho Edinburg mecting, “Jesus of Nazercth passeth by, the cholr rendering the last line as i chorus, The opening Pm{cr was by Dr. Gibson. Ma). Whittle then took for hie text the account of the opening of the eyes of the blind man Bartl- meas, of Jericho, as recorded In the 10th chap- ter of the Uoupu\ of Luke. 1t was an abie and earncst presentation of the leading parta in tho narrative, with somethin, of the sume style of Mr. Moody, and was wel recelved. ‘The mecting closed with the benediction by the Rev, Mr, Spencer., .

THE TRIRTY-S8HVENTU SESSION of Rock Itiver Conference of the M. E, Church will convene at the Centenary Church, on Mon- roe street, near Morgan, on Wednesday morn- ing, Oct. 11, at 9 o’clovk, On the evening pre- vious the customary conference-reunion will bo beld in the lecture-room, at which the visiting aud resident members and their familles will meet {nfarmally, It happons this year that the opening of the Conference corresponds in date with the annual church soclable of Centenary, and s0the two cvents aro to be united, and n generul good time of a soclal chaeracter, for which this congregation s noted, will be an ad- ditlonal feature of tho opening. There are many reasons why the gathenng of tho Confercce this year is fraught with much more than ordinary interest to the members of the lsading Amcriean Protestant denoinina- tions. Itlsthe centenninl year of our fndo- pendence as a natfon, and the Church of Wesley has been so closely identified with the blrth, growth, prosperities, and adversitics of the Unlted Btates, that it would be difficult to write alistory of Methodisin in America without giving a pretty complote compeudium of the nation's history. Tho important part which the the followers of Wesley took {n our early strug- gles and progrees, Loth in camp and tield and council, are wWell knowo, and Methodists have been prominent {n every great departure In the line of human advancement made within the past century. Notably bas thls great Church made a noblo record for ftself inthe cause of mun's freedom, and thatat asaeritice whicheould scarcely have been expected ot the thne and under the circumstunces, cven for conselence-sake. At the gencral conference fn 1844 the question of the Churci's attitude on slavery camno up. Bishop Andrews, ons of the Houthern Blshops, was & slavehiolder, and the Northern branchof the Church,whichwaslargely {dentifled with the auti-slavery movement, took the reverend Bislop to task. e defended bis action, and the - institution, and was bucked by his co-religionists in the South, In consequence ot this discord the Methodlst Church parted jt- self in the middle, und from that thne has re- majned divided into the M, E. Church North, and tho M, E. Church South. Wo recall the “circumstances bocause ong of the leading cause of jubllation and thunksgiving ut the approas fog Conference {s found in the probable rennlon of the dliferont branches In one grand Amer- feau churels body, undisturbed by geographical or politicel lines, At the lust ‘General Con- ference o committes was appolnted to meet a like commitice from the Southern General Confercuee, who should toputher discuss the questions upon which the two divislons dlsa- greed, and Af possible formulute some basis of 1ellowship und reunjon, Tho tusk which these Committees undertovk was not an casy one, and tho dilicultivs at the outsct sumctimes ap- peared almost fusuperable. There were questions of ownership in church property to ba” settled, and many minor matters of a vexatlous charac- ter, But, tinally, by the exercise of Christlan furbearauce, tho obstacles vanished before work and prayer, and wll thoss inatters up- on wileh differeuces existed, wers mnleabiy arranged, and the preliminnrics necessary to thu grana marrisge of the Southern and Northern bruuches In a holy und eternnl unfon, after o divorce of many weary years, were all apreed upon.
