THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, MARCH 19, 1878, RELIGIOUS. THAE METIHODISTS, Thoe Methodist tninisters hiold thele regular Feckly meeting Yeaterday morning, in the {ecture-room of the Clark Street Church, how- ever, instead of In the usual place, Prestding- Fuler Willing occupled tho chialr, After the devotional excrelacs, the Rev. Mr. Crofts en- deavoresd to corrcct an erronovus improssion which had gone out In regard to the_proposed sotidote for the concert-saloons, What the League I pronase to do was to hnve free con- certeat Farwell Hall, to bo supnorted by the churchies, each evening fn the year if possible, {hus giving the youoz men ol he city all the lequnllucs they could find in the snloons He gave notlce that at {be nest meeting e should bave something to without the bad onc offer on this point. ‘Bishop Merrill, a8 per appolatment, gave the mecting an account of his recent visit to Mex- fco, and the condition of tho misslonary work there. It was scarcely realized, safd he, that g0 large 6 part of this country as Mexico wasa forclen land, untll ono cotered Into It, Every- thing In its nppearance impressed one with the Tho very land looked weatsy and one could not help sceing that it It was tho lome of (hought of ita oge. pat scen Uetter days, Catholicism. Up to the revolution of 1857, fume (n this country was Mexico, and the sountry was Just what Romantsim chose to make . The Church not only owned the church- nlldinge, but Ina incasure the capital of the ountryy 80 that epeenlaters borrowed money of the Church, Bome, cven now, wero In fayor of this oll systern of things, Onc of theso argued that the old times could bo bor- wero preferable, beenuse tnone! rowed then of hie Chureh for per cent, whila pow cavitalists charged 12. A very noticeablo feature to be met with in travoling throuch the country was tho abseuce of home Jife. Bome of thy huuscs fooked Ifttle better than penl- tentlarles. Many were mero mud-huts, with dirt floors, and” without chimneys. In fact, coukiug-stoves and chimneys were unknown there. Ahe furniture was indescribably voor and meagre, and the cooking quite at random. Cleanliness wns out of tho queation, and It was s terloud problem how virite, morality, cn- erzy, and enterprise could be doveloped under such circumatances at all. Peoplo wero not bought and sold as slaves, although the system of peonage was about ns bad as tho ofd feudal system, B tone of the later phases of sorfdom, © Teeht wleally, the owner of the laud did not own the Teoplt, yet they wera so bound to him thiat thoy couldl not get awvay from him, They could not 1eave the owner's Jand whila in delit, or, If they did, thelr new employers were obliged to pay tuat debt. There were no smaoll farms, but larze plantations, cultivated in the rudest sort of way, The Fuuplu actually clmmed that they did thele farming just as thelr aucestors did I, and that to mnke any changes would be a reflec- ton on thele graudfathers. Raflrond fills wero wmade by diggiig up earth, putting It into bags, carrylng them and nmm[vllngmum Into tho place where the fill was to be made. The averago wages were 37 centsn day. Out of this they gupported thelr families and pald their taxes and church rates, Everybody had to pay these, tichor poor. The masiers rescrved the llon's share for the taxes and church ratcs, so that the workimen really received a very small amount, and were poor Indecd. This class made up the Jargest part of the popuiation. Tho num- Yer who did Know anything about refinement was very Fuall, and they were about ns fanatical aethe Fest. Wit the rovolution of 157, tho power ond_eway of the Churel of Romo was sbridized. Vast quantitics of old, yaluable prnl"» ety were conflscated, and gold for atmost nothe I, 'Phe massea of the people were opposed to e Church party,—sometimes catled the Maxi- mitian party,—and thero was some encourage- nient to hopu thut that party never again would galn the ascendancy, Popnlar electioiis were a mero farce there, and the fact that they were o farce waa accepted and looked upon by the people as incvitable, Tho present Uovernment—that of Diaz—was pencrally acknowledeed, ond fts Influcnce generally felt. ‘I'he Civil Uovernment was In- ulined to encourpue improvemnents, extension of edticationnl facilities, nnd to grout religious tol- erution. Rellzlous processions, Catholio or Protestant, such as thoso scen in Chicago San- day last, were not allowed, and the exeeutlon of tho lnw In this reapect was absolutely fmpartfal, Menco there was an vpenlug for the missionary work of the evangelleal churches. Tho fubab- Atants of the country were wonderfully desirous of being informed,” but the Catholies looked with suspicion on overy effort to advance re- ligion and futclligenco amang the Emo‘vlo. There were no accominodations for them in the churches, and the scrmons were not calculated to educnte them out of theriguorance, Shrives, mementoes of alleged miracles, tawdry paint- ings representing tho apparition of the” Virgin when_the miracles were wrought, tables in the churches for the salo of trinkets, and other evl- dences ol superstition and lguorance, wero com- mon, Tho cxerciso of flagellatlon was sup- posed to bo peeuliarly virtuous, It was poluful to go through the country and gbservo mll theso ovidences of fguorance, weakucss, credulity, and superstl- tlon, and yet tho people belteved atl the tlme that they Were the most roligious on the face of the carth. ’l'l.\e{ were nltogether too docile, too easily led. What the Mextean peoplo need- ed was to think for themselves, He had been unable to discaver that tho people there had an kica that thero was any sort of conucction between religlon and morality, There wero a fewnewapaperaju the country,~threein Meglco, —but they posscssed no latlon, no cfMer- prise, and amounted to mnothing whatever, There wero no political gatherings thero to alse cuss publle queations, no polltical campalgus. ‘Tho only publle zatherings were ot bull-lights or clrenses, which were equally profitable and m]uully religlous. (Laughter, Hishap Merrill then proceeded to speak of what tho Methodists had done in founding churches and schouls in Mexico, referrivg llficlllll’l’ to Trinity Church in the City of Mexico, with » congregation of 500 and a mumbership of about seycnty, In Pucblo, formerly tho most fa- natlcal city In the Rcfinbuu. A church and schools had been eatablished, and wers in very successful operation, althouch Brother Dries, tho wmisslonary, took bis life fn his bands when Lo tlrst went ithero to futroduce tho Mothodist falth, Property hed been bought by the church to somo extent, and more_ouxht to bo bought, Lecause ths peoplo naturally got tho lde:fim‘ thase who bought property there did not intend toremaln mcro strangers and sojourncrs fn tho land, but that they meant to stay, The Bishop hind aesisted fu the dedication ot'a church during his recent trip, and remarked that the ringtug of the church bell was heard with deligut by the Protestants, and equsl dis- Rust by the Cathollcs, Everywherg he tad no- tived o willingness on the part of the peuple lo bo _fuformed and educated {n rollgius matters, and among them ho had been rejuiced to sen somo of the must sliucere cases of conversion Lehad ever mot in his life. Insowcof the larue citles thero wero freo schools catablisho by the Uovernment, prolessodly unsectarian In thelr managemont. In somo rascs Romlah prieats acted os teachors, and Homish text-books wero employed, but the Governuient was on thy lookout for this sort of thing, aud determined ta put It down aud seo that the schouls wery ug- clurlaw tn thelr conduct, Tho Uarrett Biblleal Institute Commitice, ¥ith the Trustecs, gave notice of s inccting to beheluat the Clark Street Church Tucsday, Mare at 11 a. m., for consultation with the I the [nstitute to determing the future poliey to be pursued In Mittug Its debt, After several other notices bad been read the meeting adjourned, —_— THE BAP1ISTS, Tho Baptist minirters held thelr rogular meeting {n Roum 4, No. 71 Raudolph strect, Jesterday mornlug. - By lovitation, the Rev. O. Perren, of tho Western Ayenuo Chureh, gave sa outlino of tho sermons preacbied by him Bunday, Tho Rev. Dr, Chenoy Introduced to tho as- 'Fmbly tho Rtov.

Tus regular order of wervices wos then taken Up, and, according to programme, the Hev, ¥, Chapell, of Evanston, was called upon to ;:ld o0 essay upon the subject of * Pastoral hlungv:l; Howl" Tho revercod gentleman andled his subject with ease snd grace, snd his Production was well recelved, £lo spoke of the $iealth with which the average minister sought mrhnnuu Lis pastorate. homade up his mw that it would be for bis {uterest Lo mako u shingo [n ‘his field, Le begau to luok lmflu Lim, d sccretly amoounce his H cotlon to lgn the charge of his d‘;‘tlklw winisters abroad, or mmong vacang Imn!m. untll be received & call that suited Tt ‘:"“m Lo accepted it, and told his congrega- St that bl sulud was tully wade up ¢ x tuild not be cbanged: ‘The results werd h-‘ually uupleasant, It bls salary wus fucreused “\‘-nwru actused by somi of unibitious or mer- m:\{y_gmuvcr or i1 Lls rewuneration was not opred, sumo brother was apt (o accuss somy ber brotlier of wakiog tllogs uupleasuot for hls bastor, and criminations and recriminations followed, to the dettlinent of the best interests of the church. [le took the gronnd that n minlster who was wedded to his church had no more right to coquet with anotler church than a married man had to coquet with another man’s wife or & widow, Neither had a church any more right to coquet with tho pastor of another church. Another mettiod was to reaign beloro accenting a call from another charch. This, the speaker thought, was not doing justice to the or himscll, 8thil suother method was to have his resignation take effect at sume time in the future, thus aiving the church nnd pastor timetofix gpmatters,tofinishenterpriscaaiready begun, and to give the congregatlon a chance to wet another pastor, ko that It need not be left s day_without a leader. This latter he re- garded as the most satisfactory and just way to proceed, v, Dr, Chenoy thoueht he could not Tho Res fully sgreo with the Jast brother {n his illustra- tlon comparing the minlster and his church witha man and his wife, unless tho contract rend that the pastar should taka the church far life,—for better and for worsc. Ho thought it not best that pastorates abould be continued for too long a time. Prof. Northrup had nothing to say, as he had had no experience Iu resignations. Tho Rev, Dr. Jackson sald he agreed with Mr. Cheney In some respects regarding changes, though he thought thev should not ‘be too fre- quent, Tlme and money wero often lost in this WAY. ’{henev. Dr, Morzan was much of the same oplnion with the last speaker. ‘The Rov. Mr, Cressy said sometimes it was quite necessary for a pastor to ml‘fn' .[Laug] tor.] Ile thought that It was not infrequent the casc that stipulations were mado in the call that acertalo time sbould be given by the paator to the church beforo resigning, and ho considered this the best plan usually. The ltev. Dr. Howitt was of tho opfolon that crcurnsiances often controlled the action of the pastor {n taking leayo of bis church and cou- gregation. ‘Tne Rev, Mr. 8tate, of Jollet, said this ap- peared to be an experience meeting, but he bad no particular experfenca to relate, 1le thought the best plan was the last proposed in the casay, ‘Fie Rev, Dr. Everts did not quite agree with tho Rev, Dr, Cheney reparding frequentchances, loclied instances where churches had b rreatly benefited by long pastorates. Therce srere times, it was truc, when it was plaln that a change would Db beneficial, and then he be- Jleved both church and pastor should exerclso thefr best. jm;fmcm. {u a Christlan spirit. Tho Rev, Dr. Ives was in fayor of what ho considered long postorates, o thought that ten or fiftcen years wasa '“E pastdrate, and that twenty years was a very Jong one. 1f n pastor rematred longer than'that he thought he ‘pastured on tho church, ‘Tho Rev. Mr. Blackburn, of Oak Park, thought that a church which would let o pastor pasture upon b was decidedly green, The speaker thought, also, that too “frequent changes often had a tendency to cut off growing men. The Rov. Mr. Kermott otlered somo fllustra- tions, showing that fnjustice might bo dune to tha pastor_in reslguations, as wejl as to the church. The question was so complicated that hie belleved no general rule could be adopted, Prof. Ricuards Lelloved that ono principle should be constantly Lorne in mind,—that nll parties concerned should labor to continue the pastorates as long as possible and oracticable, though hiodld not koow as forty-year pastors ates were always desirable, Ileagreed with the casaylst in one thing, and that was that there was too much coquetlug among pustors and churebes, and the matter was Feulnc to be too much of a commercial transactfon, ‘Tho Rev. Mr, Kimball did_not belleve fn sud- pen changes, He thought them detrimental to the interests of the people. ‘The Rev, 3r. Alllson was of the same opin- fon, ‘Tho Rey. Mr, Perren thought 1t would bo ex- trcmelly dificult 1o lay down any definite rule. e belleved that therewere pastors whochanged for no other reason than that they could preach tuelr old scrinons over again, The Rev, 3r.

Chambers’ Journal, During the winter evenings, when the chil- dren were engaged with thelr lessons, our tame rat, Blily, was usually to be found on the table rummaging among thelr books and cateling at thelr pens; which latter amusement be enjoyed very much after the manser of a kitten runnin, after a knitting-needle drawn _quickly up an down the tablu; but as these nmuscmnents rather interfered with the studies, Billy would occnslounlly b dismissed 1o the kitchen, to which be had o great dislike. o never stayed therc lunger than he conld help, but on the first chauce would rush up tho stalrs aud scratch, or rather, I should eay ’goaw, for adwiit- tanee. éncnk‘nfil of this gnawing leads me to observe that one objection I bad to recelving him was the fesr that he would be very mischievous bat fortunately I never found him g0, Ha had free access to a pantry where o varlety of eatables, usually conaidered dear ton rat’s hieart, were to bo found; Lus I never knew him to lujure auything, or even to cut the paper covering of any ancrl. no matter what it contained. No doubt it was partly owitg 1o his being so_well fed that he was not driven to theft by hunger, I gencrally scattered for him on the shelves some grains of rice or pickles of starch, and to thoso be belpea bimself when ncilued, From soap or caudles he turned uway in disgust, being far too well bred o rat toin- dulge in such Jow tastes; but he dearly loved n Uit of plum-cake; and, shall I confees it, hu was by 1o means a tectotaler. If ale was used ot diuner, he would rush eagerly about the glasscs until he was au‘uplled with rome io L3 spoou, belleve, before hie came to us, he had been ac- customed to even stronger putations, In which, however, wa did not fudulge him. I have sald he was not mischievous, neltler was lic, us mis- chlef ainong rats 18 penerally understood; but there is no rule without exception, und Billy hiad o decided penchaut for kid-glovea, If any were Ieft carelessly about, ho wns sure to ret liotd of them and havo the finzers eatenoll in a few minutes, I cannot tell bow many gloves e destroyed, until repeated lessons of this sort enforced more steady habits, I nust not omit to mention his fove of music; when ho heard v\ howm or has forgotten thom.
