RELIGIOUS. TIIE UNITARIANS. The Western Unitarian Conferenca met yos- terday morning in tho Church of tha Messinh, Mr. D. L. Bhorey In the chalr. Dovotlonal cxercines ware conducted by tha Rev. Jasper Donghet, of Shelbyville, I, ‘The Rev. 8. 8. Huuting, of Davenport, Ia,, read 0 paperon ' Tha Practieul Wark ot the Conference for 1878, What was the work to tie done in the Valley of the Mississlppl! Cer- 1ain powers werc in posscasion of the fleld, which might e called eccleslasticlsm, ortho- doxy, retiglous Indifference, athelsm, according to tho pulnt of obscrvation, The Methodlst Church had a strong heart, powertal Jungs, anil an Inventive bratn, and to attemopt to con- vart it by any dircct attack would bo uscless, Methodism nust bo Ilberalized, 1f avor, from the culturo within its owu schools, s thnt culture should bu affected by the ganeral suientitie, theological, and literary atmosphere 1t vreathed, Tho Eplacopal Church was gain- ing ground Dy the necessity of §ts own weight in lencning and the systemntic arrangement of ita milhnery departinent. . Well ndapted to the misslouary” work after Methodism haa been over the field and got the people washed aud dressed In good wholesale clothing, its matn chance was with those who liked the church style of religion. ‘The Presbyterian Church was strong ecclesinstically, but was held in pluce by fron bamds of theolors, Tose reverend wen- tlemen represented by the Millers, Swings, and Rabertson Sith, were simply too broad for the intellectual houd of tho Church, and were Jints of what was coming under the inflitence of a broader theologie and historle culture. Tfow to meet thia ccclesiasticism! should they meet priest by priest, Bishop with Bishopt No. They did not live under a mon- archy, aml should do nuthing to fncrease tho ruveite for unreasouing and arbitrary author- ity, The rrlclz was a mildle-man, who clajmed to speak the word swhich would bind or foose the conscience, They should therefore reject the priest, with the swhole system of error and superstition Iying behind him, and make a direet Issuafor the teacher and tor him alone. [n the effort tohulld Free Congregational saclctles they wero dolng the most practical work thoy could do. The speaker prafscd the methods of Mr. Moody, When he preachedof hunesty and of all the virtues, with the “Llood atonoment Ieft out, he was practical and of common sense fu his tnethods of appeal, putting & degree of 1ight into dark places, and prepaing rudemioda to be more receptive by stirring their native scnsibilities, L 'The Rev. Mr. Gordon, from the Committes on W reported recommending the reup- pointient of a Central Executive Committee, and the reappolntment of the Rov. Mr. Joues as missionary sud member of the Executlvo Com- miitea. ‘The Committee also recommended the r.\lainF of #1500 by apportfonnient upon the churches for the missionary work of tha Cone ference.

Often it happened thatboth stages were ropreachted in the anme mind at vari- ous titnes. Whoover reasoneid must sometimen doubt, and out of doubta came destruction, accompanfed by coustructlon. It was foollsh to scramble into another’s line of belief and act the bigot towards others who did not follow, Wiser the oas fu whom the chanees of mind eama i the natural order, without forcing or stuntiow the regular growth, WherathsChurch waa most imperious thure was the most out. npoken Infid elllj and atheism, The Liberal Chrlstians shonld be coustrictive, If possible, and they shoula carry hope and trust with them fn » fargor proportion than doudt and dishellef, "Tua Cunstructive Libernl aliould thy tu construct s certain temper of mind,—not certain bellefs or erecils, but that temper which admits of larger views and the full play of tho emotfons, & temper which is not afrald to bolleve as well ss to dis- belleve, Liberality was founded in roason and fuagination, snd tolerance fn consclence, To be & Libernl one must be something of & poct, ‘Chie sccond hopio of the Liberal was to go out ns the apostle of freedom. Rellgion had not yet taken hold of the universe with a reallzing sense. The old religious conceptions were try- ini to take In the new developraénts of the sgo. It was the duty of the Liberal to_stand at tho duvor of tlie sanctusry aud point men to the trus vest. 'The real Liberal would haye eudless aflirmations to make, and his bellefs would be positive, conatracting bet- ter {deas and destroying the poorer fdeas. What was tnost needed in'this nincteenth contury was truthfulness of preaching, an honesty of rellg- fous utterance, an honesty that would not nd- mit the slurring over a doubl or hiding an em- barrassing featurs of religion, Tho Liberal }.rcwncnhnuld bo not so much the apostle of ree rellgion as of (ree methods of retiglon, ‘The Rev, Mr, Chadwick made a few remarks, when the Conference adjourned. In the evenlng there was & platform meeting and the chtrch was crowded with people drawn thither by tho announcement that so many pul- pit celebrities would deliver sddresses, . ‘Tho Rey, Mr. Gordon, of Milwaukce, was tho first speaker. 1l¢ thouedt that the attituse assumed by the Couference—that the Unitari. rians held the fortress of the day—was most satiafactory. ‘The people of other bolicfs were all coming to them to get wisdom, and tosea what they had to say of comfort sbout tho great questions of plilosophy sud rellgion, It whas noticeable that at this Conference there ‘was less argument on theologic polnts anlwore quiet bellef than at former Conferences. ‘The Rev. C, W. Wendte, of Clucinnatl, sald that (Immni:o was romethiug of a strouchold for the Liberol falth, as thers were hore four pros- perous Unitarian churches, and the newspapers were unprejudiced, and _there were mon in tho orthodox pulpits, like Swing and ‘Thomas, who could join hauds with them though uot belong- Iug tothe Liberal Cpurch, In Clucinmti tho conditions were not so favorable, yot Unitarinu- {sm was vrogressing there. The apeaker said that fellowship and character wero leading features of the Unitarian Church. . ‘The Rtev. Mr. Ganuett, of 8t. Puul, called the attuntion of the audience to the Pamphiet Ifis- aton, a publication of the Church. [lo ailuded facldentally to the fact that Chlcago was the ouly city Io the United States except Boston which supported four Liberal churches, Tho Rov, J. L. Jones, of Jancsville, Wis. spoke about the acw movment cn_the part of t mt‘:lumm' of which great results wers ex- peetod. < . The Rev. J. H. Allen, of Cambridee, fol- lowed, Ilo had Lecn spondiuz the past seven nonths fn the Weat, and had learned a great eal about the resources of that part of the country and the auvance of the Irea Gospel in that feld, ‘e Ry, Mr. Chadwick offored a resolution extending the sympathy ol the Conference to Mr. Charles Brigham, of Brooklyn, who nad beon Jately overtakon by bliudness. [he Mr. Blippen, of Bostow, Lkened the Unitatian Chureh 1 this countrs'to a byelcle, witn Boston for the front wheel aud Chicigo for the little one coming after, Hu waa always In fayaor of building up in relli.'lon. rather than in tearing down.

In the carly days of ths raliwny, when trams moved alowly, watehes were imporfect, Lut now with,jtrains rushiug at forty miles an hour, watches were conatructed which weretrue to tho fraction of & sccond. Inreligion it was wuch the same.
