It must be remeiubered when one speaks of o growlug fotellect that loyo fs o quality of the mind, and s included In this fuct of prugress, Love once wus_wide enouglh _to include only its own family, Then [t reacned out and took in tribe, Then o untion. But this sentiment lins cnlarged itself, ns it has lived, just as ariver eularges all the way from fountaln to sea, and a3 §t has grown it lhus demanded broader statementa of law, politics, and religion, The huwman heart unites with human teagon in de- munding a justive, n mercy, o liberty, that shall reach n larger throug. As love muves vut of fts own housu it wishes to take its fnstltutlons along with it and bestow themn upon the peopie it visite, It was ensy for our remote luthers to condemn all the heathen, for they hated the heathen go cordially, st foast they loved the world so teebly, "The Duke of Alya boasted that hie iind put to death 36,000 heretivs by oxe- cutlon und the Pupe wrote alutter to hloy, blessing him for helpingmankind Lo a better re- iglon and urging him tu gzo on In the blessed eu- torprise. In days when the human heart beat so low, when {Ls love was only the instinet of an anlmal for its own young, any kind of a doctrine about thu heathenor abuut the atonvment or faith met the full nced of the soul, Thus the progress uf lovo is the uru'%vruss of doctrine, for out of an awakened heart there must como o wider atoncment, o broader delinition of falth, of heavon, of the wholo ufilco of Jesus Christ, aud of the fmport of God's Word, The growth of affeetion is an cyolution of doctrine.

It is nevitably the forcmost theme of thought and discussion, taking precedence, for the time, of all toples whatsoever, 8ince luman nature fs what it Is, we ought to expeet nothing else.

The utility of these 80 frequent national convulslons, {nvolving changes of policles and offlelals which nobody can predict, s certainly open to grave doubta, At least the futerventng apaces might be lengtle oned with good offoct. Biure, however, there s to be a reconstrue- tlon, or an attempted reconstructlon, of the personuel of the Exceutive Department of our Government every fourth year, it is deslrable that the purest and noblest olements of soclety should take part in {t.

Arouud tho pulpit wers arranged a multitude of tropleul plants, and it wos covered with flower-baskuts and bauquets, tokens of love from members af the congregation to thelr beloved pastor, The chancel was also beautifully decorated, and on {ta front was o shield bearing the letter “H" in white flowers. Inthorear of the chancel tho ‘walls were tastefully garlanded with evergreens, from the centro of which there stood out fu bold rollet the dates 1851 and 1876, A chiolr of nbout fifty boys and girls, the lat- ter dressed In white, were seated around tho pulplt.
