A sermon of this chaacter was preache! yesterday morning by the Rev. Carles FE. Harris, of the Greene street Mo thodist Episcopal church, and was listened to by © very largo number of people, who, by their attntion, maniferted considerable interest in the teach ing of the reverend gentle nan. After be usual exercises, the Rev. Mr. Harris came forward and ag an introduction stated that he was afraid ‘that he bould say something that might perhaps tread ‘upon th; toes of some of his hearers, but that he could not be!p tha, as there was but one oourse to persue, and that was thopath of duty. He tot bis text from the Epistic to the Philippians, Ist chapter 27th verse —‘‘Let your conversation be as it be cometh jhe Gospel of Christ.’ After a prefatory remarks he said that there was no anahgy between the past government of the ancies republig and our own, because the Ameri mn nation has ‘thrown off all allegiance to the past.

He wanted that spirit in every man, from the President down, and then ail could say that their ‘‘con- vVersation was as becometh the gospel of Chriat.”’ In conclusion he stated that, as a minister of God, be would not attempt to tell or teach them in what manuer to cast their vote, whether for Bell, Breckinridge, Douglas or Linsolp, but he wanted thom to go to the polis with a bay 3 spirit of brotherly love, and al! woul! be woll, thouga the sermon was a very long one he was lis- tened to with great attention.
