Dr. Gurk % A portion of Seri pture—the 8th chapter of Kings, commencing with the 12th verse—was then read by the when the cor tion united with the choir in singing a hymn, of which the follow- . ing are the first two verses : And will the it eternal God. ‘ On earth blisb his abod+? ‘ And will be from bis radiant throne w Accept our temples for his own’ These walls we to thy honor raise, Long may they echo with thy praii And thon descending fill the place, With choicest tokens of thy grace Dr. Tustin thea followed in an impressive and fervent invocation to the Divine Throne, earnestl: imploring the great Jehovah to avert the nati calamities which seemed to im} with sach threatening horror over our glorions country. Another Lymn was sony, when the Rev. Dr. Boardman preached a forcible and edifying dis- arse from Psalms, 83 11—‘'For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a deorkeeper in the house «f my God than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.’ A text such as this lends natarally to refiections on the duty of all men to give their presence to the house of God, as well in acknowledgment of our entire dependence on His bounty for all we are and all we have, as for the sake of securing new blessings through that gate of Heaven for ourselves, our families, and our country. After referring to thia subject in its general bearlnys, and endeavoring at some length to show’ that the erection of evangelical churches was of great public benetit, and leagued with the best interests of society. he thus eloquently alluded to the vast benefits which im'ght ially be ex- pected to result from the erection of the beautiful edifice in which they were then assembled : We are all witnesses to the signal liberality and efficiency displayed by those immediately engaged ‘a the prosecution of this work. This beautiful edifice attests at once their prety and their ben: cence, their love to God 7 bave assembled —— dst the generous sym- pathies of the commanity oo ge tas a gratefol fering to the Triune God—Jehovah. A work ¢ this is impressed with a bigh value under any circumstances, even ina secluded village or among the mountains. hat, then. must be its importance here at the very heart of this proud Confederacy. For Washing! any other eity of our country, isto be regarded in two es- sentially different ts, which may be styled domestic and foreign, or local and relative To the one it is popular al ke tm every commu- nity; required for its own benefits, r-straints, helps, teechings, and consolations of religious o feances To the other it is allied by strong and intimate ties with every town and hamlet. It is scarcely too extra’ it to say “+with every workshop of the Republic.” This isnot a mere speculative connection, but an actual, vital union. ‘the pulses which beat here send their vibrations to the remotest ints of our vast territory—into every babitation that claims tbe protection of our jaws. Itis in this view especially that we insist upon the importance to be attached to the erect! of a new evangelics! church ia our Metropol But, however humiliating the confession, we are obliged to admit, that the tendency, as well with nations as with individuals, is forget God The experiment of self-government whi-h we are trying, and which is justly led as involvi the cause of free institutionsth oughout the world, is not yet ted. There are omens along the horizon which at times cause the best and wisest ameéngst us to trembie for the iasue One thing at least may be considered as immutably settied—our fature depends upon the favor of God, and the only effective met! by which we can counteract the calamities with which « e are threatened is to use the weapons He has furnished. It is no dis- paragemen’ to our Constitution and laws, to our Lames and magistrates, to say that there are eviis they cannot cure; wrongs they cannot redress ; ils they cannot avert.

With what ney a DP vet a vent the fatal results of such evil spirits, r the Gospel of Christ? If learning and eloquence, it lofty culture and ripe experience were ‘all that ‘was necessary for this purpose, these evil and cor- Tupting spirits would long since have been driven rom the Capitol Ne r ful passion, no sec- tional ant pathies, no fanatical maledictions, no Mercenary tratiic, can resist such. The power is stronger than the strongest human arm; !ts victories reas beneficent as are decisive. But what ‘We need. what the whole country needs above all ngs, is, that this benign influence shali be en- here, at the ver tre of the republic. it come down u restless, conflicting, ble community, like rain upon the mown , Like showers thet water the earth, and the ems that solve our statement are soived.

At the close of the discourse, the Rev. Dr. Jun- kia led in prayer Asolo soprano, entitled ‘Flee asa Bird,” was then sung in spirited style by Miss Gurley.

Numbers of vessels laden with coal arrive dally at the fuel depots, requiring a small army of laborers and putting {n requisition a large number of teams in discharg- ing them.

These compose a very large and respectable class of our citizens, and coi uently the Saturday-night markets are f equently very largely attended, by both dealers and purchasers. We have before noticed the order and decorum of the Northern Market on Saturday nights, and we only desiga to call attention to Centre Market in the same re- spect. The absence of order and decency is fre- quently noticeable; the gany ways are blocked up by gange of Reretes, of both sexes and colors, Whose profanity and obscenity are in the highest degree disgusting to the respectable ladies and geatlemen who are necessitated to hear it. This market, during the sale honrs of the day, is as well conduct as ny of itskind. Why migtt not the laws of decency be enforced during the Saturday-night market? should be protected then.
