Slavery and the Revival of Reli,zton, A very barge and attentive congregation easenbied at the Obureb of the Paritans, Union square, last evening, to Dear the first of » tories of lectures by the Rey. Dr. Cheever, The subject of the dissourse was ‘Tne Bin of Slavery as Affecting and Affected by the Revival of Trae Piety.” After the singing of a bymo, the reverend gen Seman offered @ prayer for the welfare of tho oburcd and pation, He prayed that as, according to human vision, the time for the coming of Goi’s kiogdom was nearly ap proacbing, true plety might spread abroad and flourish io this city and im this region, and that there may be in truth asesson of refreshing from the presence of the Lord; and that in regard to those who havo been op- pressed and kept im bondage, God would bring the people as @ nation to repentance. Ile prayed also that thore pornicions Inwe which disgrace ‘he statute books, wnd the oppreestve practices waich ba, been built upon hem, might be Diotied out for eve) ‘hat the arm of the oppressor might be broken, and th: oppressed go free that they may be blessed with the (ui enjoyment of that liber y with which Chriet makes bis people tree.

The ob ject of tho true revival of ro igion, then mast be the roak ing up of the nystom. The slave will be wo glad to got bis Nberty—for bo is told to une bis liberty, if ho oaa, and to remain in bondage bo longer than he can beip it. The moment the masters are couverted, they must ree the evil of whieh they heve been guilty and endeavor to make amends 10 tbe Objects of oppression, for the simple aw of Chriet was— Thou ehalt love thy neighbor as toy- solf.”’ Tho first duty they owe the slaves i# to wet thom free from bendage and to pay them fair hire for tavir la bor, And this the masters would bave to do If they were truly converted, for they could not proteod to be Core Hans Without belug guided by the word of God. And when they came to the record of wvih—whewer they began with Mores or the prophete—they world fot that slavery was nothing ies than man stealing, and that the refural of man to give liberty to his brother has always been visited by God The waquiry could not be puraved one mom without Cus result, even in the «wees snd moet beautifel of those prophecies which relate to the coming of the Redeomer.

Quo of the marks of @ truly good man waathe refusal to partake of the gaiua of oppres slon—ihe tabing of the servant's labor without wages, and taking savantage of crue! laws to do him wrong. They would fiod thet God heard the prayers of the oppressed: and they woald conclude that there was po good reason why laws of sin that were thought execrable under the Roman empire, should be turned into good laws im the American rep ib lic, If the slave holders were converted they would not be in obedience to any other jaw than that which st. Paul melsted upon. A troe revival of religion must root bp and cast out that system by which the nation is #rori feed to Molooo. If tt make men beter than what they wore it will be a truc revival; if not, is will bea mockery. If the liar, the thief and the extortioner were turaed ialo would bea realrevival.
