RELIGIOU Prof. Swing Selects * The Pulpit” as His Theme, And Discusses It with His Usual Eloquence and Tenderness.

Prof, Swing preached yesterdany morning at iba Central Church, taking as his text: Recaure the preacher waz wire he atill tanght tho people knowledge, —Becl.y zlh o B Unce there were only three learned profes- slons—the bar, medicine, and the pulplt. In forming a profession great time 1s demanded. ere and there a physician must have appeared i far-off times, but he must hiave been Innghed At awhile and have enjoyed at first but little practice. Then he must have dled under the eloud of heing supposed bewltehied or insanc. Then he must have had two, or five, or ten suc- cessors who posscssed more real merlt, and who won from the publlc a little more coufidence, Thinga must have gone on in this way until at the end of 1,000 or 2,000 years there must have been established In the world a medieal profes- slon, By slow cvolution Is a pursuit formed from a scrics of facts, . By simliar footsteps the legal pursuit must Bave entered the world, As soon as any patrd- archs or chiefs announced a law for a famlly or w tribe, it must have come Lo pass that some onc man soon beeamo remarkable for his memory of thesa rules and regulations, and for his experi- ence in and around the, tent of thechief. To thisolder and wiscr mdn tho younger men in trouble about land, or a apring, or an ox, wonll naturally repalr sceking advice. Presents from the flock, or from the field, or from the shop of the smith fngold or sllver,would begiven for the advice, and thus was the lawyer slowly created in the higher evolutlon of soclety. Moses camo up out of Egypt a lawyer, for, having been reared In Egyptlan court-life, he beard all tho Btate cases tried, and In his immense memory ho soon stored away the principles of Egyptian Iaw, and honce, while the flcbrew slaves werd rovine like n mob around the vales of Bluai, Moses wns closcted up In the mountaln golltudes composing a Constitutlon and statutes * for n new Btato to bo founded in Cangan. . To bulld up such an entity as the leanl profesalon may haye required a thousand or two thousand, vare ot experimentation and gradual approach.’ e the coming of-the Bar however obscure, we ses the lawyer in his almost fdeal perfection In . the clossie states. In the pleadings of Cleoro in Roman courta the reader of Latin finds the Iawyer's works so beautifully and powerfully @efined and performed that he may well wonder whether tho ninetcenth. contury possesses o barrister who might be writton down as the equal of ths [lustrioua Roman, A profession comes llke o sclence, orlikea trade. A few generations ago there was no sclence of chemistry. No one had learned that sertalu substances were formed ot certaln un- secn substanves. Elther accldentally or other- wise a few facts were dlscovered about gases or sollds, and when about this time thero sprang up the drcam that there was o liquid which would turn anything Into gold, then came a melting and boiling and mixing upof all things. Each cellar, aud cave, and garret beeamo o Jab- aratory, und each vot o erucibic that the mawkeal elixir rolght bo discovered, “The ellxir itdell ‘wua not found, but forth has come the sclence of cheralstry 80 useful aud brilliant fo this era, As comes a sclence by a slow amussing-of fucts and principles, so coines a_profession by o long tnd slow but surc march, Actionaare classified aito a pursuft like fluwers Into a sefence. ‘This belng the method of profeasional devel- opment, we shonld he prepared now to confess that grreat new professions are comingalong, for #a the world widena in its. thoughts and works it st lssuc orders for new workmen, and slong, without delay, tho workmen will come, Hence do not fail, iy friends, In your survey of pursuits to see three old learned profussions expanded to fiva or ten, for ns a river widens awny from its source and beging to foat more vessels and of der‘aar draught, so the stream of clvilization, wilening as {t “runs, begins to teke on Its bosom new alins to meot the démands of growing citles and growing commorce, The dlscovery of priuting las created the editor; the freedom and equality of the peo- ple has developed the school-hotise, and henca the protessional teacher.

As the clussle world never knew liow many muses oF zrutes it lind, sometimes counting three, sometimcs tive, and sometiuies nine, 80 now our contury knows not whet powerful professions it enjoy: but it must say three no wore; it must en. large this charinfug cireto and let hands joln which hung cold, neglectod in former woncra- tlons, Each century will heneoforth launch one new professlon, . Chlcf mmong the pursuits that have been, or. are, or can b, one must reckon the pulplt. It 18 rendered great by tho quality of {ts {dcns, And this {s whut. datermines the qneation of merit everywhere fu human affairs, Paintings, or statuary, or sclences, or. lrru!auluru ary ereat sceording to the fdeas out of which aud for which lh? l%r‘ufi. ‘Tho pulplt, therefore, in that it deals fn tho definito doctrinea of Chris- tlunity, and in the genernl {deas of natural ro- liglon ‘and morals, must be in theory the Lighe est of all professions. Let us theréforo think somewhut about this day. Wa caunot explore the continent, we can only run our bark by its shore. ‘I'he history of Its advent cannot differ from the bistory of the dawn of the other profes- slond or sclences. The hnls oftice must. have come along slowly, descending from man’a re- lgioua noturo snd need, just’ as the Bar de- acenued from the laml need of society, Mun must carly have ruléed Inguirles abont a Cre- ut moral obllgntion and destiny, there must huve spruug up men to atudy luto these things, and to whom at last eame' the: young and theold to mnake known their wants und to seck light and consolation, ‘'Tlius Abrabam appoared amone qm Hebrews, Confuciue smong the Chiuese, Tlato amnong the Greeks, Auzcllus among the lhmuul‘—l. e first shupes of this great min- fstry, From Enoch to Moody this apustolfe succession stands unbroken, ‘The coming ot Chrml with a detyite theory of ctere nity, and with an humense Inspiration clothed with full %twernnruresnlull whoso er- Tand th then hud been vaiue, and whose beart hulf full only of faith uud hope, Chrlstfanity did not create tho pulpit, but It burried It along towani puwer, the doubie powerof detlilte truth aud burning impulse. As modern thought hay transforined ehe uld magiclan into o chemist and the old astrologer Into & rational astronowmer, so cnmu.un{ has transfurmed tha Pagan priest of Rome, or Ureeee, or Pt luto a4 minster or truc morals and freo relizlon, Saul wus o preacher before he nict the Chrlst, but a preach- er of amall or false ldeas, and with sy unworthy apirit, Chrlst took the preacher Baul and gave bim better texts for better discouracs. Tho grestest of all professtons {n theory, 1t has niot been, in fact, ureat to the degree of Ite capadity, For wild sud burtful fdeas have al- Wuys sprung up Lo juar the kleal. No profes- slon woves aloug parallel with its theory, 1t ouc lovks at Clearo and there, fu that wilrror, sees aud detines the Bar he will' possess a beaus Wful picture, but should he attend falthfully the actual courts of the world, of many towna . tweeu modern Tuscany and Arkausas, he will find a humilisting number of justances lo which o will fail to seo the utbity or glory of the lewal profession, Thus ull professiuns run behind theic theory aud do not in one instunce, perbups fu o geueration, catch up with_the fdeal. It §s the common sorrow of all arts and pursuita that they coms so far short of expressing outwardly the luuer dre: In this universal -Iwncumlnfi ne rofesslon suffers more thaa the pulpit, Belog he hiichest art, It §3 the most dilficult, 1t i3 easily marved. The middle or [ntensely thco- logkal wres loaded it down with (oollsh or un- profitable fdeas, The despote losded it with cruelties. The superstitions loaded [t with uo- tlous absurd and paluful or laughable, sud then the sccts camne slonx and loaded it with recrimi- vations aud bitteruess. Dowma displaced xfw.n principles, miracle displaced reason, u Diving €all to the minkstry made common sense aud learulng unuecessary, sectarian strife displaced love, aud this the ereatest of all thas professions bas moved alovg an fuvalid or a wisantbrope rather thag a suilllug hero, Yet, burdened as It has always bects it now stands to-day the best vrofesslon which fought 'ita way throush and ovut of the dark sges. lw- mrh.‘cl. fodeed, it 13 not wholly ashamed cowpare lsell whh* the ~law and medline sud stitcsmanship of the durk Ages, companious.of- 44 journey and ite slus When the medical profession were treating all (llseancs by blond-letting, and scfence was seelng the sun o around the earth each dsy. the pulple neetd not blush at its eloquence against a heretle ora witch, Out of the dark ages all the pro- femslons come much Mke men rising up from o night's debauch, or like criminals led into court nfter theirlast exploit in glen or bighway, A rough ret were all the professions fromn Constan- tine to Luther. Ascuming now the theoretle worth of the pulplt, let us mark briefly two qualitics of It, —its manner and its matter: It should indeed avold mannerisme, A man- nerlsm Is something doncor said slinply because it has long been doncorsatil. Tt s 4 custom which no longrer reposes nsvm any loxic, but his- tory. In royal Jamds an fdlotie child fa placed nupon the throne hecause his father onco sat there In witdom and merit. The idiotic success- or is not, indced, a King, but anly a mannerism, Unnuestionably all the professions should de- throne mannerisms as they go alung, and place thelr power In thelinnds of not {dlotic suc- cessors of former Kings, but of new Kinga tn ail ways worthy af the new aud enlarged empire. A young clergyman once recived nrlu|utnnsllc letter from a Vrinceton theolozian, Leling him that his preaching wouid be ntterly vain unless hie fiest explained the text tothe people and then established {ts truth by Scripture, and then rssed home an application to the audlence. lmun the. former pze bad its mechinery for con- verting men, and it had not the least “idea that any kil of a harvest could posaibly he grown or garnered by any other Implements than those which were hanging up ju their barns or stowed away In their ahieds, All manners inust be flexile. The wig and gown would possess no longer any power on our bonch or at aur bar, Society Is always inovin away from its encampment, not in purault of new cssentinls, but in pursuit ol new scenery, Along with the movinz crowd the pulpit must be _scen willlng to Jeave the old camp behind ond to journey toward new rcones, Asthe vizorous and good-hiumared ol people follow thelr sons and daughters toanew world or to the Western prairfes, not heenuse they then- selves love change, but heeanse they wirh thelr sous and daughters to follow the star of deating and to steike n new world in its spring, and not fn ita dead autumn, so the pulnit muat hold itscll reaay to sirike tent and join {n the un- avoldable migrations of the young centuries. 1t §s nssumed by many that a change of style means achange of Guapel, and that only infidels ar heretles can be gullty of any innovations In the world of religlon. “Bint whoever will read the poems of Choucer and then of Whittier, will find that {¢ 18 not pocsy that has changed, but only the Janguaga and imagery, and public’ and pritate taste. The love, and friendship, and sorraw, and {uy, the feasting and the mourning sung by the last harplsts are the same as when sune by Ihn who first taught the Enclish lan- ngze to step to a measure. Lovein1fomerand fi‘v‘vc In Longfellow are thn same.only the one wan embodied In adomestic Peelope.theotherin awandering Evangeline.

The pulpit must have nted it the right granted all fta companions n thought, the fl%fl. of perpetusl changze of manter withiout subjection to the reproach of andoning the Gospel. The repentance which John preachied {n tho wilderness is the same ns that preached by Savoparola, and ns that preached by n? Kempls, and ns that preached by a Fox or o Channing, only the different nerloads demanded different outward expressions, Wien a monk repented, he covered himeelf with ashes: when a Quaker met that sentimeht, ho donbled his kindness and his honesty, The an- clent grieved, the modern reforms. ‘There are fow virtues of oratory more potent than freshness.

One could ‘not do the work of the other. Many fnstances were re- lated to prove the truth of this, The Majur re- lated with much feeling some incldents of the revival In Chilcago, Gud would biess every one In the audience If they only witled 1t so. " God had told lis followers to carry the tews of eal- vation evergwhere, Every Chiistian should put 1o work the talent he had. God's word was bet. ter than that of any man, and onc reason so many attempts at conversion failed was becanse Christlans gave so much of thelr own words, and not enongh of God's. On God's word all Christlans onght to unite,—~that was a common ground on which all could stand, and it is swhere all ought to stand. If what he said did not azree with what God _sald, hie ought not to he belleved.

No. 07, * When He cometh, when He cometh,” was then sung, dur- Ing which those who desired left the hall, less than one-third of the large audience retirhie, The Rev. Mr, Billinan then offered a thought to the effcet that na handpicked fruit was the most valuable, therefore the hand-to-hand work Lrother Cole hal been talking about was the worlt which would do the most good, and he ureed all to enzage in it 8Silent prayer followed, Mal.

Many persons in the sudience asked for prn"er- for themeelves and tor frieuds, after which a request made for all the professing Christians and those who wished to becomne Chrlstians to rise, and they were asked to endeavor, each one, to bring some unconverted soul to Christ. *itescue the per- ishine ' was then sung softly, In dismisaing thecongrezation Mal. Cole lceouzhit his hearera not to talk about the inectiugs, tut to talk Christ. Ail could agree on that, The benealetlon was then pronounced by the Rev.

Gunning delivercd the third of his scrics af Jectures on " Sclence and Man " to a large and reapectable audience at Hershoy's Muslc Hall, yesterday afternoon, The subject “Races {n the Making" was a very fnteresting one, ond waa latened to with much attention. The following 1s an abstract of the discourse: The speaker sald in begiuning that no one should say that In grappling with the problem of the origin of man and tha races of men, we nre benting' our heads acalnst o frultless ab- straction. The human mind never bent its powers to the solution of n more practical question than this, The school-men toyed with questions which hod mothing to do with the conduct of e, We are concerned with questions of seupendous interest to the welfare of our kind. ‘They ex- ended thelr intellectual netivity on thls ques- fon: “WWhether, in a state of Innocence, all bahes are not born boysi’ We are heginning 1o expend s portion of our activity on this ques- tlou: **Whetler, in a state of rutlonal exorcisc of the facultics, nll baves should wot be born welll” They beat their Lrains against this question: * Whether (iod knows more than [le Kknows that He knowst" We are heginning to cxercise our powers on this queation: * Whether man, knowlng whence he came, ana how, will not know better how to order lifs conduct of lifet” 1f man can truce lLis origin toa mys- terigus Power that wrought by what we call thy methods of nature, the factors belng many and diverse, the types of inan should be many and diverse, The speaker considered then low far tnan, 1ike the anlmals around Wim, varied with the aspect of nature, Ile showed that animals, fn general, take tho color of their habitat, He showed how they vary in form according to thele habita, flo then deltneated a tribe of Diukas, who lve on uplands by the White Nile, a land whose soll fs red-brown. The culor of the Dinkas is red-brown, Ile drew i man from the nelehboring trive of Dyoors, who llve on a low land between two tribitaries of the Whita Nile, The color of the sofl fa black, und the man Is black. The habltat of the Dyoor I3 like that of tho erane and lamingo, and the Dyoor fsa kind of Samfugo-man, With little head, long _neek, long oud gaunt lmbs, au spreading feet, he strides flumingo-like over the - marsh. Here, then, wmon men who live almost os - near 1o Na- ture ns the animal, and are consequently alimost as miserable, we flud the satne protective adapt- atlous betwean the color of the man and that of hia habital, aned an exceptional adaptation of form to an exceptlunal mode of Hife, ‘The whiale of Arctic scas las a thick under- garment of non-conducting blubber.

To 1he Edilor of The Tribune, Curcago, Feb, 10.—By the decislon of the Bupreme Conrt just rendered it seoms that Cook County is not to be saddied with an enormous bonded indebtedness for any purpose whatever without the consent of the people, While this doclslon reems salutary, on account of our frresponsible County Board, not to say corrupt, yet there Is no doubt that Cook County should have a Court-louse, nnd that very soon. But thapeopla are not willing to intrust the power of uklng the money necessury for that purpose to the present Boasd. A hew County Board st then be bad, und that can_only be at. tained by the assistance of the Legialature, But I “would warn tha public that a like Toard will agaln be elected If the thme for such election shall ho fixed at the same tine with the general clec- tlon in the autumn, We saw the result last fall, It became impossible to remove w bl nominee from the party tlcket, It was tried last fall In vain, Such nominess haid pald their asscasments, and therefore it was Impossible to fuduce the Central Committee to remove them, They claimed that the whole ticket would be en- dangered If such puriution should take place, and henco the bad snd the good remalued upon tho ticket, aml they all went jo together or wera defeated together, What has becn onr experience In regard to clrction of Aldermen heratofore? Sa long as Aldermen were elected on the general ticket the autumnjwe hauta Common Councll which rohl the public, What was the result when our present Councll was elected! Only gl mon were chosen, fur the reason that no other ollicera werc chosen at the same thine, and an oppostunity was given for tho voters (o se- lect the beat, and the best they did select. Now, my buinble apinfon I that if tlio clee- tlon of County Commissioners shall bo con- tinued as It now, In the fall, it will be o no avall that the whola connty shall constitute an election district,—we - will have the sainc result, But if such election should be moved forward to the spring timo, and be hicld at the same tima a3 the wunlclpal election, wa should avoid all gi\ny politics, aud the best men would bo osen. I do mot think that by the aldition of the County Commissloners the mnnleipal election could "ba cndangered by numbers, but - it seems to ba wlvisablo also that - o 1w ba passed roviding for the election of the town ollicers Far "t cities Of the State at the. same timer such election to he held by tho same judues, and ins regular lawful wuy, (ustead of by & moede without any cheds upon ballot-box stuf- g, as ot preacut, . ‘The county, the town, and the diy olicers are local in their charucter, and bave nothing to do with partisan politics, and it would scem proper that they shoulil all ba elected at the same time. Tho numbers arc 8o limited that only falr and bonest men would be chasen. think the experiment of choosing vur Common Councll at such a spring clection has been so emineuily successful that none should doubt that the time wheu the election was held waus the ohifef factor in tnat result, Therefore, | would eall tho attention of the publlc to the fact that Benator Kitdle bus introduced a bill (u the Leg- fslature to changa our municipal etection from thy apring to the fall. This would, indeed, be wolog bk Lo the old corrupt ways, lustead of stauding by @ precedens o bappily created by our last sprinz vlectiou.
