A Mini er Ordained by Wor (From the Revolntion.} A new incident in history of the church oc- curred at Marblehead, Massachusetts, on the 2d. At the ordinance of William Garrison Haskell, as pastor of the First Universalist Church of that place, the Rev. Phebe A. Hana- ford, of Hingbam, delivered the charge, and the Rev. Olympia Brown, of Weymouth, the Prayer. This being, so far as 1 am aware, the Fst occasion when women have taken a lead- ing partin the ordination service ot any churcb, ithas seemed tome worthy of notice in the Sexsieate, and & matter of interest to the world. A novel incident of the service was the lying on of hands, conducted by four ministers, Mrs. Hanaford and Miss Brown participating. The cbarge by the Rev. Mrs. natord was as beautiful as the eloquent words and forcible manner of that spiritual woman could make it. She commenced by saying, “George, my dear brother, you have chosen ‘Phebe, the Charch of Hingham,” to give you the solemn charge, and to deliver ‘Unto you the oracles of God, one of which is your behef that there is neither tribe, nor caste, mor sex in the religion of Christ Jesus.’ Near the close of her remarks she ex- pressed her assurance that he would succead: because, among other reasons, “he had shown choosing & woman to take this part of the service bis views, and bad thrown down the gauntlet to those who would place women and idiots side by side on the statute-book.” As n whole, her charge was masterly, womanly and more impressive than meualty listened to on such occasions. The prayer of Miss Brown also deserves especial notice for its fervor and elcquence. —_—_————_-.
