ANNIVERSARY WEEK, Annual’ Sermons Before the New York Bib‘e Society, American and Foreign ‘Christian Union, Home Mission- ary Society and Female Guer- dian Society—Meetings this Week, &o., ae mw, ‘Toe New York Bible Society. Laat evening the Rev. Henry Ausuen, DB. Ds, of “Mash’s churc’, proached the annua} sermon om bebalf of the above named society, at St, Geerge’s charch, Stuyve- saetiquare The copgrega ion in atendznce waz Bot very large. The reading desk was eccupied by tho Rev. Dr. ‘Tyng, prster of the church, and the evening lesson read was the Sich chapter of the beck of the prophet Isaiah— “Bo, every ope that thirsts, let him como to the waters.” ‘The choir thon seng, with mauch pathos and fecling, a Heraphrase commencing -— ‘Feo Rev. Henry Anthon scleoted his text from the 7th verve of the 1%b Psalm:—The law of the Lard is per- “feet.” He said the character here given to the Word ef @od appeared in two books; different in teaching, but one im spt, Tho books of tho’ id Testament formed the ‘whole of the revealed law which Ged thought it necessa- ‘vy te bestow on man, im which were contained the types and foreshaciowings of a brighter and far more glorious sevenant; and if the high eulogium contained in the text ‘was due to that part ef the Holy Writings which was ‘kmown to David, it waa more than pre-eminently due to “ake Bible im connection with the New Icstament—which ‘eontained the saving traths of the Christian dispensation— ‘the full and final message of love from God to fallen man. ‘Of this law, the Scripture said, it was perfect, making wise the simple and rejoicing the beart—that it ise purer ‘Athan gold, and sweeter than honey and the honeysomb, He would therefore proceed to show how we came pos- wertod of se invaiuabie a treasure, what pains God him self took to give and secure it to as, and the purposes ‘and destinies ef such an imperishable a treasure. The Christian would thus see the obligation on him to use ft not en)y for his own salvation and that of bis family, but to sircniate it as the instrument for the salvation of the world. The Bible was perfect in such a degree that it admitted of no compromise with man; no one could add to it; and ifany dared to take from it, he would #o so at ‘the peril of his own future welfare. And it was needful ‘that the law should be thus perfect; for as a defective mirror could not give a true reflection, so also a defective eode of laws would fall to reflect the will of God. But the Bible was God’s own book, which he alone could hare eaused to be written—complete as a moral code, and com- plete also as the founta'n of true wisdom. It was the ebosen instrument in the wisdom of the Spirit to furnish ‘the Christian with all that it was neceesary for him to mew on carth, and t Jead him through ihe gates of eter- nity to the full fraition of glory in the presence of God. ‘The Bible was indispensable to such a being as man. Ie it were to be found the character of God; the law which exacts obedience from man; aud the means by which ho might avoid the just punishment aue to sin which he Brought into the world. If God bad not given man this Light anto his path,” it would be as if he had made map ‘with eyes to see and yet bac not created light in the eie- mepta! world. Nature woul. not speak but as God speaks: hroogh her. Science know of no means of arriving ai the ‘Will of the Almighty mind. A revelavion from God was ‘what was required and that not by oral tradition, but a ‘written revelation, for such traditions were never intended to be co-ordinate with the wul of God. Thoy bad dove no- Rebdbis, they to worship the enee Duilt ben geebad —, aod from cL} — altars the aman beings flo Poetry S57 came to tnels aid.end beputted millions wore degraded into the worsht ofidols. The Rev. gentleman then call- ed attention w the condition of the Pagan world as described im the nervous writngs of Pau! ; to their oppressive and crue! Jews, and to the tide of human depra' which flowed throogh every vein of their system. The ptures of the Old Teeta nent, during thie armost general night of igao- ‘and error, were shining lke some lonely star in ‘the firmament, and the influence ef the written law was to be felt. Some Ashantee or Hotientot bat! said that sen was usele because it only shone in the dav; and thas the athiest had made the great discovery tnat where the Bible was there was slways daylight. The necesmty of a mera! revelati 10 was apparent in che fact that it was the rtapdard by whica the will of maa .was brought into conformity with the will of his Creator Tne mode and d had reserved to himsel!, refusing to be dic- the short sighted reason of i} i 4S 3 i i to os that might spend our time in driv tpg dargains ig vainly, and talking nonsense. Bat they were what we bt understand our Creator whe to us, and that we might ration- ally hold con ith Bim! For four thousand soars God spoke by the lips of saints aad prophows, and after wards, in the mystery of His windom, He #0) the Jows from other people by laws which’ made them odious im the eyes of ihe world; and thus He prevented tacir —— with other nations. The purpose of God was thus apparent, for the Jews wore destived to be the Keepers and preservers of the sacred oracles, until the advent, in the fulness of time, of the promised seed, #ho ‘was to appear for the redemption of the human race; aud when He came He raid of himself, “| have come into the work! io boar witoess of the truth.” Ana He bore this og, His death, His re- leftas @ legacy © Hw chareb, and and martyrs have died t© maintain and set forth the doctrines of ite sacred page. The Rev. geatiemas then reviewed the which had come over the gociety, and how ite value had beer eobanced since the Grst invention of metallic types, and of the hand Press; then of the turning off of the single sheet of and the advent of the power press. If a years ago, aby one had said that an army of angele could bave printed 30,000 copics ihe Bible in the time now taken to do it, be would have been laughed tesa medman. But now, by the aid of steam presses and steam navigation, the Bible was priated with incoa coivabie rapidity, and scattered allover the habitable = This was the result of the inspire\iou of maa; aad moat pot be believed that these wonderful inventions were on! fer the quick cirenlation of intelligeace and mersant , Dut they were intended to make Rnown to the worla the “law which is perfeet, convert. fag the vou!” The Bibie bad a powerful iniueace upon the child which now creays to cross the ——_ whom i nourishes ap into a man of (od, and fe the captive who has just light ir his coll to read the only companion hts solitede, Tt bad alro a over stubborn ibe mystery of hie unbelief coustted in his never baving ™ un! coma in his never bavi earefuily read the New Testament, Scott, the celebrated commentator, baa left the valuable testimony that at he had despised the Bible as much ag reverend gentioman then the unacript: teaching# of the Church of Rome, that if the Bible were ally read it would be the moans of disseminatin, Tirecien, whereas that church was iteclf the fountain ot cag A ge 2 and impiety with which the church of Chri ever been afflicted.

The former, he said, were designed to be and Continue the leading powers, and to become as wile ar ‘the world. Their laws, their literature, and their religion ‘would ertond everywhere. [t mattered not what was in- seribed upon their banners—the nations that bell up the Bibie must prevail. Nature willed it, humanity willed it, God willed it. there was nothing to prevent it.

Ata vast expense of blood and treasnre, God had given that Rook unto us: and it was Hi will that that paro and perfect light should shine into ail the derk places of the earth, into the doors of misery and the beunte of crime, until an emancipated world and eymoathi«ing heaven shal’ sing together the song of Mowe: end the lamb. In concluding, the Rev. gentleman dwelt on the necessity for ail families to read the Bible, and to ‘seoiet in ite circulation, There were many who never road ital all; while others might die before they read it through. But tho best and wisest of maokind spent their nights and by in the study of ite sacred pages, every one which if signed wih the blood of Christ. The Bible Society bogan in 1832 by suppiying some Sunday ‘schooia with about 44% books, and in 1857 this supply had increased to 96,000, and the grows amount to 1140,000.

American and Foreign Christian Union. ‘The anniversary sermom of thie society was delivered on Senday evening ip the Reformed Dutch church, la fayette place, by the Rev. Dr. J. M. , of Prince. tom, The reverend gentleman tok ‘ee Yile text tho lin ‘and 16th verses of the first chapter of the Epistle of Paal totho Romans: ‘So much as im me is Iam ready to preach the Gospel to you that are in Rome also. For I ‘am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto every one that believeth; unto the Jew first and also to the Greek.’’ He stated that bis subject was “the Christianity that we have to diffuse and the means we have ef diffusing it’ He then spoke of the experiense of St. Paul, hie sufferings, and the reasons he had for giv- ing utterance to the sentence contained im the text. From this ho passed on to a consideration of what genuine Chris- tianity is. It is not a mere profession ; it is not the observ: ance of ceremonies or ordinances that have passed away. Tt is the truth contained in the Gospel of Christ—that which exalts the mind of map, and teaches him to look from his own merits, from earthly refuges, to the “lamb slain from the foundation of the world,” in whom alene the sinner can find hope and encouragement on his way tothe grave, and who is the only one that can do anything towards accomplishing the salvation of his immortal soul. The hope that the Christian ie to have in Christ is a true faith; not merely @ faith that causes him to be persuaded ‘Wect Christ dwelt amoogst men, but a faith that makes him know Jesus as his Saviour, his mediator, his everlast- ing and omnipotent benefactor, and the Son of God. Having fully aad clearly concluded with the frst head of his discourse, he proceeded to the second, in an eloquent ‘and impressive manner. Such s the Coristianity,said be, we have to dittuse. It isa happy and encouraging thing that in these days so many are being led to say, ‘(What must I do to be saved?” To this question the ambassa- dors of the cburch of Christ have but one anewor to return, which is—bvelieve in Christ, in his all suf- ficiency, in his medi and in aul the offices which he performs as Saviour of the se. Tals is the Prosopby of the Gonna it is simple, p! reaches to capacity every one, ano is vox of all approach to complex philosophy. It is opposed to all systems of hoathenism and {aise Christiani- ty, and in ite very beautiful simplicity it comoate and overtbrows them. it is the object of this society to spread the truth of Christianity wherever @ taise or impure Christianity prevails. We have for our object the telling of mankind in whatever country or whatever clime the Be iy yy possess. them that they have erred on the most vital poiuts of the Christian doctrine. This is work that requires of the person by whom it is undertaken that he have assurance not only of the error of those whom he addressed himself, but als) tbat he be fulty conversant of the trath which he com. municates and bave unlimited confitence in it as being the word and power of the Creator. This is a critical work to undertake. 1: is a work of love. It is netone of denun- ciation and excitoment—it is one that is to be done qaletly , mildly, and i a spirit of faith and love; yet the ambaasa dor must be earnest, zealous apd paient—he muss feel Of a city impregnated with the most ious, and virulent disease.

At the time that the Emperor Constantine introduced Christianity to the Roman empire by law, a great macy of the erroneous ceremonies that now = I ; i revel attempt was meade to amaigamate s good many of the heathen cerem nies of the time with the doctrines ef the Christians, so that a reconciliation between heathenism and Christianity might be effected.

The apnual sermon before this society was preached last evening in Dr. Adams’s church, Madison square, be fore a large congregation, by Professor Sumi, of Andover, Mass. The reverend gentieman commenced by observing that the relations between the speaker and the hearer were not, as generally supposed, mainly dependent apon the efforts of the orator, but they were recipro- cal; and while the orator needed to be pre- pared to speak, the audience needed to bo prepared to hear. The duties of each were equally incumbent. What was the true tone of hearing, and speaking religious troth? The answer coukl be drawn readily from the inspiration of Divine revelation. He would endesvor, in the discourse, to consider, in the first place, some of those distinctively beautiful views of truth, exovedingly intense in their nature, and penetrating in their influence om the preacher. In the Scripiures wo find that God is the representative of thought aad feeiing. The two primary constituents of emotional feol- ing were love and anger. They were tho most purely personal qualities which could be attributed, and were, throughout the Scriptures, ascribed to the Deity. Taore were no more distinct truths in the Scripture than “ God is love,” and “God is a consuming fire” A being with. out love or anger would be impersonal, as “ he who loves good as @ consequence hates evil,” aod “ be who loves life and light, hates death and darkness,"’ and a class of emotions towards moral good nocessitaved an opposite couree towards moral ev). We were driven to atopt the idea that God stood within emotional qualities or with them, and we could not consistenily say ho had the one and not the other. Was it an iliicit passion for God to hate ovil? And might not love in some cases be improper? (pon the belief, then, in the biblical truth that God was a2 intense immaculate spirit on both sides of his character, depended the force of the preacher. Woec @ men realized that a being as self-conscious a# himse’ made him, and would cal) im to account, he was aroused to a sense of nis condition. The finite and responsible man war Lius brought into con tact with the inflaite and ompipotent God. If nothing but wrath made up the Deity the soul would be influenced by fear. If the Deity wore all love men would relapse into an unthfiking imbecility. Tho Bible taught the truth of the guilt of man; yet there was a na:nral desire to look at apy otber than the judicial side of the divine character. There were many degrees of guilt, and it wag the duty of the preacher by divine inspiration to determine these in- termediate points. The old dispeneation had a tendency to awaken be mind to a poignant sense of guilt and to this ‘was owing t tho intense vitality of the O.d Tesiameat—it made the Hebrew mind so vivid and intense, contrasting with tbe Permian will. people of God were separated purposely from the great mass of the Oriental world, and Dy these means the truths that God ts a judge, became by their biblical education impressed upon their minds, and grew dimme?and dimmer and dimmer upoo the minds cf (we other patens. The minds of the present day needed Ww be kept act've with reference to the doctrines of atone- ment and retribution. Guiit and expiation wore eteraal pondenies sot over against each other, like and he ~=who | know Ly Wasa pecwiarity of the biblical handiiag of this subject tbat the atonrment was represented to be a The preachug of those who wee characterised by re ie freedom evinced Lhe most passiouate appeals to man’s sense of guilt, thus reaching his reason ia enforcing ‘tporeciaion of tne porsousl qua r persoval qua i- ties of the Dety—a reverence for the Divine majesty—a fear of his wth, anda desire for hie love. Tho mental ‘state of the 100-professors of religion proved this. Op the secénd point of his dwcourse, the reverend gen. Ueman obdse'ved that {f the effectiveness of the oravor ‘were dependent upon the receptiveness of the audience, there was netd of some moral carnestness in an audieace. lt was necewmry to know what were the allinities and antagoniems of the audience to the word of God.

The steamship Vanderbilt, Captain Lefevre, from Havre and Southampton, 28th uit., arrived off tho lighthouse carly last evening, and reached her dock about two o’clock this morning. She brings nows to the afternoon of the 28th ult , four days later than previous advices, ‘Special mails were made up at the general post oflices of Paris and London, consequent on the United States mails being taken by the British scrow uteamer City of Balti more, sailing on the morning of the same day from Liver- pool. ‘The steamship Harmonie arrived at Cowes om Tucaday morning. THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT. The House ot Lords sat for a shorttime on the 26th ult. , Dut no business of any importance was brought under consideration. In the House of Commons Mr. Macartney asked the Se- cretary for War whether the entire charge for pay, al- lowances, clothing, appointments, stores and horses of the increased force of British troops, now serving in In: dia by reason of the mutiny, would be defrayed and pre- vided for out of the Indian revenues alone, and if not, what proportion would be charged on Imperial revenue; also whether any portion of the cost of transport had been borne by the Naval or War Departmants. General Peel sald that every farthing of the expense would be defrayed by the Hast India Company. The Chancellor of the Exchequer then moved that the House will, upon Friday next, resolve itself into a com mittee to consider the act of the 1dth and 17th Victoria, c. 95, to provide for the government of India. After referring tw the overwhelming majoritios against Mr. Baring’s motion, “Tnat it ts not expedient at present to legislate upon the government of India” ‘He said that that majority had only given to the noble lord then at the bead of the government permission to bring in bis bill, but by no means pledged the House to any of its details, When the present government came into power it thought it advisable to lay before the House scheme for the government of India, which was in some respects like that of the preceding government, yot dif. ferent from it im many material particulars. Tho right honorable gentleman proceeded to contrast the main foatures of tho two bilis, contending that tho bill of Lord Palmerston, though very plain and simple was yot despotic and dangerous; while the bill of the pre- sent government, which had been etigmatised as compli cated, waa only complicated so far as it partially intro duced into the government of indie the elective principle of the British constitution. In every other respect it con- tained elements for a conncil quite as able and well ia formed as any council which might be selected as the pominees of the government under the bill of Lord I’ai- morston. Hoe defended the various provisions of the Dill which be had himself proposed to the House, and said if bis resolutions should be adopied in spirit, however modified, he bad Litie doubt but # bill might be founded up. a them, which would be found beneficial to the best interests of India; but whether agreed w or the contrary, he hoped the House would beware of allowing party feeling to creep into the cons\deratihn of any mea, sure for the government ot that cauntry. Lord Palmerston raid the speech of the right honorable gentieman might have been very appropriate if he were moving the second reading of bis own bill; instead of which, however, he waa giving it a# a fanoral oration over the very measure—India bill No. 2—which he haf himself murdered. The fact wes, the Indian Minister was responsible to Parliament, and it was in Parliament the elective principle was requisite to secure a proper admin- istration of the government in India, The oeuncR would not be the governmont of India, it would only be the adviser of the Minister; for were it to have control there would be an end to ministerial responsibility. Under those circum stances it would be absurd t have it appointed by the elective principle. Mr. Gladstone said he was of opinion ‘Uat it was rach to leg wiate at al) while war et)! raged in India; but as Parliament had decided diiferently, he had bowed to that decision, but protested against the resotu- don which bad been placed im the Speaker's hand. [le did not approve of either of the billa which bad been pre- sented to the House, for neither of them provided a council with such varied information with respect to India as was to be found in the present Court of Directors. The firet thing requisite was to pro. vide for the protection of the peeplo of India, from the ignorance, the indiscretion, and the errors of the government at home, and in the next place that no wars, such as that in Persia, shoald be entered upon in that country without the knowledge of Parliamont. Colonel #ykes and Sir H. Verney thought * unwise to legislate for India while the country was at war. Mr. Gregory moved an amendment, that itis not ox pedient to pass any resolutions ef this moment for the government of India, Mr. Ewart seconded the motion. Lord J. Russell said the object of the amendment was to prevent legislation for India daring the prosent year, and the honorable gentiemen sbould have given notice of such an important proposition, instead of bringing is for ward after honorable members bad left the house under the impression that there would be no serious opposition to the resolution. Mr. Mangles opposed both bills, but if obliged to give ao opinion be gave preference to that of the present go- vernment, and would give his support t the amend. ment. Lord Goderich said he would reserve t himself the right of moving, on Friday, aa an amendment, that tho modo of procedure should be by dill, and wot by fesolu ion Mr. Horsman suggested that on Friday they should orty come to the resolution that the government of falia should be transferred to the Crown, and then that @committes should be appented to arcertaim te best mode of carry ing out the resolution PRICE TWO CENTS. Alter some discussion Mr. Gregory withdrew the amend» ment, and the original resolution was agreed to. The Committoe of Supply was postpoved antl W.dnes- day. Op the recond reading of tho Excise Duties bill, Mr. P. O’Brien opposed the inerease of the spirit duty im Ireland, and moved as an amendment that the bill be read the se- cond time that day six months. Mr. Fsmonde seconded the amendment, After » shert discussion, confined te the Irish members, the House di- vided, and the amendment was negatived by a majority of 227 to 36, The bill was then read a second time, The remaining business was then imposed of and the House adjourned, FRANCE, The Moniteur publishes the following paragraph im the non-oflleiat column:— There are cortain porsons who, !n order to maintain un- easipers in the public mind, day ivout false pews.

Jules Favre for the opposition and General Perrot for whe government, stand as candidates. People generally ex- press little doubt of Jules Favre's success. The Paris correspondent to the London Chroni:I¢ says:—~ The French government have resolved to transfer the distribution of 100,060,000 francs authorized for the drain- ing of agricultural lands; it is much too little for the large amount of surface which requires draming. Application bas been mado to the French government by the native iropmasters for an increase duty on foreign tron. This would be to reverse the liberal policy of the government of his Majesty, who porsoually entertains very enlightened views on the expediency of freeing trade from restrictions of every kind, The London Glove contains the result of the elections. In the Third district, Gen. Perrot, the goverament candi- date, has obtained the majority; that im the Fifth distriet, M.
