Dr. Ryder’s Lecture Last Evening. Ahighly fasnionable congregation assembled at St Peter’s church, lastevening, at 7f o'clock, to hear Dr. Ryder’s lecture. Subject :—The Papal authority beneficial! to society” We have seldom seen this spacious edifice so crowded, as every nook and corner were literally jam full, and several ladies had to seek accommodation on stools that were temporarily placed between the tiers in the ailse of the church. The orches- tra, previous to the delivery of the lecture, per- formed with admirable taste and execution. Dr. Ryper, accompanied by several of the Catholic clergy, entered the church, from the sveristy, and commenced his discourse, at 7h o’clock, P. M., and did not conelude until nine ‘Taking his text from the fifth chapter of Luke, he s1id:— It in {mpoasibl templating the beautiful marr the record of God, jast read, res of Simon Peter, not to recogolge in thet individusl, the peculiar and marked destiny which it was th intention of the avers eee bergen spd a. : toat apostle, in regard to the great wor! an’ Salvation; the medium of which was the establish- mentof hig church upon «arth, After the very frat mom nt in which St Peter presented bimeelf, the Savior bails him es the firat medium throvgh which Christiani y was to be promulgated. and says—“ Thou art Simon tost will be called Peter” Andrew was an older disciple than Peter. It was Andrew that intro duo-d bim to the Savior, and yet it is recorded that Christ said, Thou srt Simon that will be called Peter” It is signifieant—it is true, that the Sa- vior concen'rated a peculiar power in Peter.— Peter, acoording to the words of the gospel, which he hed sot forth in the text, was designed by Christ to be “the catcher of men,” and the representa- tive of the Savior on earth Savior of the world was desirous of instructing the multitude. He gers out in the bark to which be was attached—and that burk was Peter's; the other bark was Jumes’. He felt an anxiety for the salvation of the multitude. Pater says, in that simplicity of heart which characterized biz “Lord, we bave been toiling all night, amid the multi- tude of fishes, and have caught none.”? Even then, the Savior does not seem satisfied—for the Savior of the world egain turns to Peter, and says, “From henceforth thou sbalt catch men;” thus figuratively showing bim thst in nets would be caught those who were stranded upon the waters of infidelity, and that those w caught in their toils, $o then,we find that r was appointed by tha Savior of the world. to be the “fisher of men,” It so happens, then, that unless we are caught in the toils of Peter, we shall be like the Leviathan of the dvep. left destitute upon the waters of tribulation ‘When [ reflect on those, therefore, that acknowledge the authority of Peter, I feel emotions, I cannot say whether 6f love, or scorn, or of pity, in relation to those who reject the authority of the Sovereign Pontiff, the illustrious successor cf St. Peter. When I read in the pages of the history of the Church of England, from the hands of ber servitors—when | read, that according to their predio- tions. in the year 1735 ‘popery would be dertroyed —when Tread the exclamations of many of their eminent chureb- men, in relation to the everthrow of popery- and when I now see that this bas pasned away, that these’predio. tions bave not ed; that instead, in the yerr 1843, we cai an intelligent aod an en- btened community—and none is more enlighten- ed than the community of New York—when I find them. I willeay, hailing ucorssor of him who wes to be lost in 1735; shen [ see that last now, in 1818, to be the father of a new dynasty of civili- ustion, that is to ba tounded—oh, | om forgetful of every feeling of indignation, and thank God that the spirit of rejudics that bas b-en instilled into the minds nf youth ty some fanutical wm pirit ot bate. of apimos.ty to tha Pope, is me pelled—I thank God that perioo Je now passed away, and that now the successor of St P-ter is reeogn's+d as the futber of a Christian people With such an auspicious state of things, we must now ask, what have those succesors cf St. Peter— what heve :hose Pontiffe, done? Let us study their lives -their destiny—their characters as men — ‘To make it plain to my dissenting brethren who have come here this evenivg to learn the character of these men—to them. I say. come, then, and examine, narrowly examine, the character of these Pontiffs | say, then. ip the first, place, tbat the Pontiff’s authority is and hes been beneficial to the world, as Christianity has extend- ed. To enw nerate all the benefits resulting from this souro: is impossible. It bas produced civilization, the sand sciences and the papacy bas produced Chris- tisnity. I eay, then, that without the authority of the Roman Pontiff, Christianity would have. ceased to exist ‘What is Christianity? Is it mere form, dra@n from the Holy Scriptures? I disbelieve it. The protection of the religion of the Glorious God and his worship. is confided to more than the Holy Scriptures. Chris- tiantry is the system, the revelation, the establiching iumtitution made by the Savior for the purpose of srouring the sulvation of mankind, toencircle the entire globe, and be m.de known to every child of Avam. Ii ja the religion, the established system, by which Chris’ designed that man should be reformed; consequently it contains principies of belief and precepts to be ob- served; it enlightens us with regard to our creation, our early history, fall, and redemption. It contains all tha’ fa peedful for us to know and believe concerning Goo 8nd man; 2nd for its revelation we blees God; and an we find, it epeaks to the heart and mind of man, and thar itis the will of the Almighty God, by this divine reve- lution, as far as his will hes been made known to man. The thing is as evident as noonday, that ther must be some authority to expound the Scripture, and present to man what he must believe. Now, where will you fiad tnat authority which will have the iofluence over. men’s minds, come of whom are as circular as the univers, others as crooked an amole. Where, | sek you again, will you find this? You may finda newe, Trligion, or that gives newer lewe; but not with the au thority of thi nor, and having innumerable diff-r- ences among themselves as to their articles of faith The law of God impresses two points on us—the power of the understanding and tae will. Search where you will, and you ‘wil not disco religion which influ- once, the lettered and unlett the philosopher and the fool as this religion does, Will you tell me it ia ip he written word of God? Attempt it not, for if you you ure subverting the word of God to the p:rdt- tion of man. Did God intend that oll mavkind should be taught by the written word? I answer, 00 In the first place, because he did not do it himself Ip the second place, because heeould not. All men did not Ivarn to waite and read, neither was (here any command. mert that they should do so, But Almighty God did not doso, because he never wrote the pages of Scripture He gave no authority to the apostles to write them — Ocly twocf the apostles wrote All the others were merely disciples. There were aporties and martyrs who had sealed their'tertimopy wiih their blood before the Scriptures were written. The apostles did not neither was it intended that the written pag be read by all mankiad. So, then, theirs could not be the authority to tech all kind Again: I might speak of ite impossibility I like to dilate on this sutjrct before my disser.ting brethren, beeawseit ehows the impos- elbilty of their position that the Bible itself could teach mankind all thacit was neceseary to know. Will you pre- tend that the holy scriptures are as necessary to teachs ebild as @ philosopher? You cannot You have sclved this problem yourselves. You have only taken part of the boly scriptures. Why have youdone this? It is» fact, that the Catholic church’ has admitted a third more into her Bible than you have done; but why or how ja it that you have the rcriptures at ull? Where did you get them? Did you receive them from cr through the disciples and martyrs? Had you them be- fore the sixteenth century? They existed before thut nd it was only then that the Bible was placed in your hands, It was from the Catholics they who preserved the sacred volume. T' cnly authority from whish it could be taken; and you haveno Bible. There is the question. This would startlvan unbiased mind.

There is not a crime that was committed, which was not attempted to be founded on scripture. When provinces were deso- Isted, sit was drawn from soriptw when the rieb opprersed the poor, the strong, the weak, thy were justified in scripture, ven the dreadful cruelties perpetrated by the French Revolution were at- tempted to be justified by seripture. What, then, | aek, oan we conclude? That you wijl sin with all your mind because others did it, whose histories exe related in holy scripture, and your own interpreta‘ion of them If all wen are to be turned to God tbrough the holy ecrip- tures, then say I the laws and the prophets are at fault But, now. let us take Christianity as it was established in the Holy Soriptures. Can it be by the authority which God bas designed? We oan settle it by referring to the Scriptures jar Divioe jour bad selected his ghurch— making Peter, and his successors on earth, the loud —that church, which was to “ spread throughout 8'l nations.” He promised to remain with his church throughout all ages, even to the consummation of the world Our -Divine Savior slso commanded that there should be uvity in his churob, and therefore declared that hrneeforth Peter was to be the’ catcher of men;” and, though thrre were to be aids. Peter was to be the head ‘he Saviour sid, , “Thou art Peter, and on thie rosk | wiil baild my churel i to thee I will the keys of the kingvom of heaven” Here Peter is mide io be the great and glorious gatherer, who was destined by the Saviour to bind all nations. Again, “Thou art Peter, ad upon this rock I will build my churoh—feed my lambs”? The third time the Saviour asked him. ‘“Lovest thou me, Simon?” Peter answering, and tearing lest there was something lurking in the Saviour’s breast, tnid,* Lord I do,”—the Saviour is satisfied, and says “Food my sheep.” Peter stands by modestly, and still hi ive with which he wan Invested by Satan has sought 6 to roy you” The Saviour tells that allare in equal danger — e prayed for thes, Peter, that thou may not be betrayed” This was known to the Saviour ; and then the Saviour said, “ Go preach the fonpel to all nations” Peter was to be the supremo head of the church—the pastor among his own colleagues. Now ‘wo understand Christianity, because there was authority on the part ot God—and the mere snfidela—the pbiloso- phers who disregarded Christianity— Plato and Aris otle —were covfuted on this very dawn of the Penticost, which telis them that Jesus of Nazareth was the very atop they had immolated. The multitude of man- ind recognized no other than Peter as the hoad of the church, and it was clear that Christianity was thas established, and that it was by the au- thority of the Divine law. The Saviour says, “ And lo I am with you all days, even unto the consum:- | iation of the world.” It is la possible for us to imagine that om such authority Curist would ever desert his eburch, Peter was the foundation; the church was the edihow, and we can’tremove it; and the obureh can’t exist without Peter That authority is now vested in the hat o Pontiff. Let us now, then, look to past ages 1#Paie authority exited then, it exisia now; but it te an authority that existed aad’ was reoognizad by all the councils in the Christian churoh. It was by Leo -and whenever and by whom—the~ #uo- cessor of Petor—it was Peter that spoke—it was Peter who was the head of the church, n in former days Ser se mans of Febgton wore Saseiles, oa hesay? * | Sital episth, The great St. Jerome, when to to determine a pol t of religious controversy between som< of the men of bis day—bi jo hed tt the soriptures from ied to by these men, what did in his beau ac the Hubre: wrangle,” he sa; that is,the authority from the chair of St. Pete: know that the man who leaves the ark will be swal- lowed in the waters that surround him. This was the cbaracter of St Jere: aod ni did ifculty that arise. nor a war take place, in which the authority Roman pontiff was not acknowledged They kings bow to his supremacy, and the names of tl seondants of 8 © were identified with Chris- tianity, and the doctrine was every where taught that religion consists in bawility and in implicit submission to the will of God, ax expressed through the successor of 8t Peter. the Popeof Rome. Be not scandsliz-d at my raying this, for it is clear to my mind that bis authority is based on that of St Peter. For this reason. all the advantages that have accrued from Christianity are from the Roman pontiffs if there was a nation convert- ed, then there was a misstonary sent from Rome Ir-land was gonverted by St Patr ck, Eugland ky St Gregory Germany, France, Soain, and all the other nations of Europe were christianized by the Roman Pontiffs These persons who commenced preaching to the heathen on their own sutherity, bad no success ; their were not bless-def God They were on their rr sponsibility. and God Almighty did not favor them All were converted under the sovereign Pontiff Aiter the miesionari-s had drawna nuwber to their faith, » bishop was consecrated and sent to have the oversight of their immortal souls. There was refere: difficulty.

Even the French theologians, who listen more to their prejudices than their conscience, are ed to make the acknowledge- ment, that not a single sentence uttered by the Pope’s ew cathedra is at variance with these principles. This in @ proof. at once, that God has chosen the Pontiff of Rome to be the guide and teacher in the way to heaven But not merely in @ spiritual point of view, mey we ebarrve the benefits resulting from the 'Popes— What was the condition of the world et the first in- troduction of Christianity? It was a wilderness of pagan superstition aud idolatry. Paganism and cruelty were every where present. They were nemed afier orimes. The Pagan could not invoke his god without thinsing of some crime, debauchery, &c Christianity poured light on them. What would the Bible do there ? Scatter the Bible in Africa, or any other nation—sup- pose, for example, it were placed ia the hands of a pol- ished Greek, what would he made out of the Bible He would have found, he would hat mens of humanity, depraved to a might be a murderer or a robber, there are these cburactersinthe Bible. This is in*the book. Then comes a Greek philosopher and reads Christ’s com- wairsion to his Apestles—‘Go ye to all ing them in the name of the , the Son, and the Holy Ghost,” and he immediately concludes there are three gods. A Trinitarian comes and says. ‘Oh! you have read wrong: there is but one God? “Oh ! ays the Greek, “I can read and understand as well as you’? This is the consequence of the present eystem of Coristlanity Hud it beea the primitive system, this would not have occurred ‘The apostles would have explained the subject; and there are the successors of St. Peter to expound it now. They did not give them the Bible, but expounded ‘the will of God. This was the primitive system. You see by the history how it wrested the holy sorip- tures. They then resisted the authority of the sucora- sors of St Peter; their influence was mighty; they made up quarrels, and when the mizhty sought to over- power the woak. took their part; they did not fear the fuceof men, aud when the kings of the earth refused obedience to their mandates. they poured their anathe mas upon them, an example ef the determination of the Popes ir exhibited im the character of Gri- gory the Seventh He protested against the proceed- ings ot one king, and fearlessly told him of bis errors.

Prices have not varied much within the pest month, and there are at present no indications of any improvement, or any material alteration. The money market is comparatively easy, which has been produced partially by the great falling off in the de- mand, more than by an increase in the supply. Within the past week, a lgrge amount of money has been paid to the stockholders of the various banks, railroad com- panies, insurance companies, ko , in the way of divi- dends, and a part of this amount has no doubt been in- vested in stocks; but only a part, asthe prospect réiative to our finanoial effeirs is so gloomy that cautious capi- talists cannot be induced to become invelved any deeper in the most prominent securities, than they now are This class of ospitalists does not touch fancy stocks in anyway.

The banks have acer tain amount of control over their specie, and the bill- holders cau, so long as the banks sustain themselves, command the ep-cie in exchavge for the bank promises; bat the cepcsitors are, in fect, the great regulators: oy time, raise or depress prices, as may from time to time suit their interests. They have it in their power to depress prices for property in this city tens of millions of dollare, simp!y by draiaing from the banks two or three millions of dollars in specie. It would not be for their interest to cause @ suspension: for, in that would advance toan irredeemable paper point, and every thing would hecome very much ia- flated ; but in the event of their wishing to depress Prices for the purpose of purchasing, it would only bene- ceesary for them to drain the banks to # point bordering on suspension, and keep them in that position The result of this would be » great contraction in the operations of every bank—an vauce in the rate of interest and a tight market.— As money became scarce and advanced in value, prices and those holding the gold andsilver would be able to purchase at almost their own prices. The drain of five millions of qpecie from the banks of our principal cities would depreciate pro- perty more than one hundred millions of dollars, estimated that the drain of about five millions sterling from the Bank of England, depreciated property in Great things, has depreciated the value of property in this country at least one hundred and fifty millions of dol- lars, We cannot realize the enormous influence of the movements of specie upon prices, until circumstances compel us to look into the matter, and we do not see how slight the tenure which sustains the value ef property, until we are in danger of suffering from it. The enormous power a few capitalists possess, can hardly be believed; but it is nevertheless true. The delegation from the capitalists of London tothe British ministry, threatened to compel the Bank of England to suspend, if the bank act of 1944 was not de- clared inoperative, at least, for a time—and their de- ‘The ministry knew the power of the party the delegation represented, and they They could have com- pelled the Bank of England to have suspended in less than one week from that time, had they wished. The depositors here have the same power; but it is more dis- tributed, and they have a greater number of institutions to work upon. The banks of this city, however, govern all the rest, and whatever operates upon them, operates upon all. It therefore appears that the bauks are ina v. j they may at any time be com suspend specie payments. The government must soon ge amount of money, and whatever amount of money the government obtains, in the way of new loans, must be paid in specie, and this specis must come from the banks.

The Latest Rumor—General Taylor—Predesti: narianism—Gen. Scott, his False Friends—A few Important Facts, not generally known in the United States. The squabbles between Gen. Scott and Gens. Worth and Pillow, and Col. Duncan, have given rise to a rumor that Gen. Taylor is to be sent to Mexico to supersede the General-in-Chief, and to act with the powers of a viceroy over that deluded soi-disant republic. General Taylor, it is known, has but a short leave of absence granted to him, to attend to private a irs i Mississippi. After the limit expires, it would seem unfair to send General Taylor again to the Rio Grande, (where there is nothing to do,) to epose on hie laurels, and again to suffer with the ened of ‘masterly inactivity.” As the ad- ministration is epposed to the holding-a-line policy, itis out of the question that Old Z Theald resume the eainmand which he resigned to General Wool. Whether Scottis to be re- called or not, it is certain that Gen. Taylor will be required to perform active service. Tt must be remembered that_the plan of the President and the Secretary of War isto hold on to the territory now in our possession, and to push our conquests still farther.
