Wilham Munroe, and reading the Senptures, 91st psalm and 22d chapter of Revelations, Bishop Kingsley then announced as his text— “And I, if T be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me,’’—John, ch. xii, v. 32. These were strange words to the disciples of Jesus. They had exercised more confience in his ability to establish his glorious temporal kingdom now than at any other time since they had been with him, and now he is about to die the death of an assassin; Their hopes gave up the ghost, They Were afraid to ask about him. Peier had said, “Be it far from thee, Lord. Why, the*world is just beginning to believe on you, By such words and acts you will not only not draw your friends to you, but scatter them." But Jesus answered, ‘Aud I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will’ draw all men unto me; as if one who was politically the bope and bead of a nation should talk of going to the gallows, Strange news this; but this death was to be the grand procuring cause of the salvation of our guilty world. Notice the manner of our Saviour's death. The expression means literally “Jifted up” from the earth, his body nailed to the cross and erected in the presence of the people, It means also coming up trom the dead, also His exaltation to glory “‘Him hath God exalted, &c. In this sense the prediction has been fulfille: Again it means that Christ must be lifted up by t Church, The seliish Jew supposed that ke and his nation could monopolize the favors of Jehovah, and exclude the outside world from the holy of holies; but Jesus rent (he veil asunder and brought the needed blessings’ Tne Chareb is to hold np Jesus asa divine man. The minis- ity and Sabbath school are to do this s0 tbat a world lost by sin may look and live, The fundamental truths tanght by this act are just sach doctrines as we necd, and atttuct the attention of all thinking men. There are times when the tremendous question of his future des. tiny comes up. Not to think puts man on a level with the brute, Such as do not meditate live like brutes, amd like brutes they die. The truth which is ‘tanght is Jesus, is , manitest in the flesh, This ie the foundation of religion. We must be careful and be- Jieve in the personality of God, The mind needs some- thing tangible upon whieb to base its conclusions, God anticipatea this and sends Christs in form of man. ‘This opposes idolairy on the one baud aud Pantheism on the other. The seasons, Merten aap and nature are not God. All grades of infid@lity are trying vigor- ously and continuously to rob man of that strong con- sciousness of # real, personal God, who demands obedi- ‘ence and whose province it is to punish. But here 's God manifest in the flesh, bone of our bone, heart o: our heart, being God to ur,’ ¢o that we see the divinity without being destroyed. Looking on Christ we sce somewbat of the love, tenderuess and glory of the infinite father. As Jesus loves me so God loves me; as Jesus sympathizes with me so God sympathizes with ‘What isa boy's conception of God? He inquires after God ag the plant in a dark cellar stretches up- ward toward the window. He asks who made this and that, “Who made you, Pa?” He is taught to say, “our Father’ and be thinks of God as if he were » man, This is good to show him the distinct personality of God. Through his earthiy father he | up to God, his father. As he obeys his father so he feels he ought to ovey God; a8 4 father punishes so he is tanght the nature of divine justice, Thus these duties aud requirements «re laid upon him. After a while he gets more enlarged views, and does not limit God, Worship supposes a heart to teel. He that formed the heart shail he not love’ Christ re- vealing the Father to us being manifest in the fesh is the great remedy for Pantheism and iufidelity on the one hand, Polythiesin and idolatry on the other. Another trath brought to light is the immortality of the soul. Ths was partially revealed before but like the twilight reflecting the light of the sun. But Jesus brought it ont fully, “bronght Ife and immortality to light,’ &e. The first reiigiows duty is trust and conf. dence im “our Father.”’ Immortatity, the sou!, going on measuring the flow ef eternal years. A man can't afford to be a worm. If feeis he has capabilities of 4 forecaste as far as imagina- distance, and realize that tinte to # far in the past as it was once in to cat and sleep and a TRev. be present, and th the future, be eanvot afford aan, die. Along with this trath is that resurrection of the cs eternal retribution, Ts these doctrines and if they are not what we need and ihe world needs. These enlarge our horizon, make men feel steady amid the storm of life and the upheaving of its Waves, point us to when the sea shall give up its dead, when friend shall meot his friend, and all who ave be- Heved in Jesus shall inhabit the land Where no chilling winds or poisonous breath Shail reach that healthful shore. It was onde asked who is this Son of Man. The title is peculiar, Christ had no father, and yet he is cailed the Son of Man; but He was the son of ali humanity. He took upon himself, not the nature of angels, but the seed of Abra born of a woman, wade under the law, Christ, then, is related to every human veing. His heart 1s more united to every heart than one human heart is to another, Every one in the shape of human- ity may look up and be reiated to Jesus, He ientifed His fortunes with ours that We migh« identily ours with His. If an angel could come down to sympathize with you—He has reen no sorrows, He has not trodden the thorny path, He has felt uo heartachcer—we would say, this is advice to you who art free (row sorrow, but not for me. A friend has lost achild—you viet him and condole with him; tell bim of (hrist’s provision for children, to dry up his tears, and he asks you, “Have you ever losta child?’ You say, “No.” ““Then you do not know my grief.’’ But you had the same expe- rience, God took one of your own sweet culldren to Rory.

Kelly the Winner in One Round in Two Minutes. &e. &e, &e, A prize fight for $1,000 came off yesterday morning, near Douglasville, Berks county, Pennsylvania, between Thomas Kelly, of Philadelphia, and William Parkinson, of Pottsville, Pa, The fight lasted but two minutes, one round only having been fought by the pugilists, when Parkinson, who was getting the lion’s share of the punish- ment, seized Kelly by the leg, which was foul, and Kelly was at once declared the winner of the fight. The affair was witnessed by more than one thousand persons, who seemed sadly disappointed at its hasty termipation. THE MEN, William Parkinson.is a Welshman, and a puddler by profess'on. He worked in an iron foundry at Tamaqua, Pa. He is thirty-four years of age, five feet three and « half inches in height, atid weighed one hundred and eleven and a half pounds. It is stated that Parkinson has fought several times in the English rimg, and loft a sbod record behind him for gameneas and good behavior. His battles in the Old Country were with White, NcNulty, Tibbitts, Mason and Bedworth, of Dudley, the latter being for £50 a side. He says that he beat all his men, with the exception of White, with whom he made a draw, the police having interfered and puta stop to the affair, while the tide of victory was flowing in bis favor. , Parkinson came to this country about four years ago, and tried” hard to get a match with Johnny Hickey, but was unsuccessful. He then’ endeavored gto get a fight with Keating, but was again disap- pointed. He then made overtures to Dick Holly- ‘wood, but the little type-sticker could not be coaxed into amatch. After offering to fight any one hundred and twelve pound man in the country without findmg a cus- tomer, Parkinson went to the coal regions of Pennsyl- vania, where he had been employed quietly until the dav of the fight between Sam Collyer and Johnny McGlade, when, mecting with Kelly on that occasion and expressing a desire to appear once more in the prize ring, a match was made between them on the spot, aud he immediately went into traiuing at Pottsville, ander the mentorship of Ed. Williams, the pedestrian, who, to his credit, brought Parkinson to the scratch’ in most capital condition. Thomas Kelly is a native of St. John, New Brunswick, and has lived in Philadelphia for the last eight years. He ia five feet five inches in height, and weighed one hundred and nine and one-half pounds. He had fought twice previously. His first fight was with Adam Erfort, twenty-seven rounds, one hour and twenty-seven miu- utes, in 1865, under the assumed name of ‘Hastings’ Kid,” and bis second under that of ‘‘Buckshot,”’ thirty rounds in one hour. He won the above matches easily. Kelly, is twenty-three years old He was trained by Mike Carr, at Point Breeze, Philadelphia, and was brought to the scratch in as tine condition as ever man appeared in the ring.

WILLIAM PARKINSON, THOMAS KELLY. Witness present—Wittiam Draven, PITCHING THE RING. The rine was pitched in a valley about one mile west of Dongiasville, by Ovater Jack, of Philadelphia, and nis assistants, At the break of day they in their work, and had everything in readiness long before the fighters were prepared to commence hostilities. On the east of the ring was abigh hill, thefeides and top of which were densely packed with eager gavers. The branches of the trees in the vicinity of the place were filled with men and boys, who were more inclined to climb thap to stand by the ring side in the snow, which was nearly a foot in depth. The ring makers only put up one ring, the outer one being dispensed with on this occasion, which created great confusion and crowding. There should always be two rings. THE BETTING. As the crewd congregated the partisans of the men began making offers to bet on their favorites, but neither py seemed inclined to offer odds on the result. ‘One andred that Key wins the fight,” was offered and taken, and jn a moment afterwards even hundred was called out by one of Parkinson's friends and quickly covered. Smaller sums were more numerous, and “fivers”’ were in abundance, nearly every man on the ground evincing a disposition’ to invest bis pile on the object of his choice. Merriment and betting ruled the hour after the crowd assembled before either of the men made their appearance. THR COLORS Parkinson sported a purpie nag wt red and white border, while Kelly had a green with a golden in the centre and a gold star corner, ARRIVAL OF THE ‘. Kelly was the first to make bis appearance at the ring side, and he threw his cap over the heads of the crowd, landing it in the centre of the ring. He immediately followed the cap, and was bailed with a burst of shouts from bis partixans that fade the ‘‘weikin ring.’ He ik atin the southeast corner, and seemed contident, Parkinson soon followed, a‘ter shying in hia castor, was received by a thunder re crowd, and one enthusiast offered to bet “ handy part of a’undred bon the r hold man.” Kelly wan seconded, by Jo!

For some time a party of seven discharged soldiers had been carrying matters with a high hand in this the upper and lower (Rio Abajo) country, The robberies they committed were almost innumerable, the persons they waylaid numerous, and tho value of the stolen property would reach a bigh figure Horses were taken from the United States corral at Santa Fé and from other pointe, with saddles, bridles, blankets and pistols to match. At Alburquerque a store was visited by the party with the ostensible purpose of purchasing goods; but learning that the only oocupants were the proprietor, Mr. Joseph Pohrner. and his wife, the villains tied and gagged them, took about $800 in money and other prop- erty and left. The next evening the thieves gave a party or ball at a small town near Alburquerque, and on @ ‘ing took with them some riding stock, &c., belong- ing to the parties ‘hey had been entertaining. Passing to the next villaze the same course was followed, Several times more occurred these bailes, or fandangoes, and their accompanying thefts, but near Canada de la Alamosa their prospering career of crime was brought to a tragic ending. They had given the usual party to the winning senoritas of Alamosa, enjoyed themselves -bugely, ana finally departed with some horses belonging to Alamosans, The horses were soon missed, and a number of Mexicans, mounted and armed, started in pursuit. They came upon the robbers, who were slcep- ing, unawares, fired a volley from their revolvers and charged. Two of the rascals escaped unharmed: one was killed and four wounded. Of the latter one was drowned in attempting to escape across the Rio Grande, and the three others apprehended at Leesburg, near Fort Selden, and will be tried at Alburquerque. 3 ‘A few days since Colonel J, H.

The Corporal seemingly acqui- esced in the plan, but as soon as possible notified Colonet Watts of it. The robbers by some means became alarmed and fled, and though pursved and fired upon, made their escape in the direction of Santa Fe. General Robert B, Mitchel!, Governor of New Mexico, arrived (rom the States last Tuesday. He has removed since his retura a number of the Territorial officials ap- pointed during his abseoce by Acting Governor W. F. M.

The coach in which Goveruor Mitchell arrived from the States encountered, about seven miles east of Max- well’s ranch, a territic storm ot wind, The driver was blown from his seat a distauce of about forty feet, the dust was driven in clouds across the country, and even stones of considerable size were borne along by the tor- nado, The coach was fasteved with chains to prevent its being carried away, after which the Governor and conductor were forced to remain inside for safety until the storm expended its fury some twelve hours later. Under the new mining law of the Terrii of New Mexico fifty-four leads, with an aggregate of 151,050 feet, have been located in Dofia Ana county since April, 1865. Of these leads 28 were zold, 18 silver, 6 copper, 1 of platina and silver and 1 of kaoline, The silver leads were principally lovated neur the towns of Dona Ana and Las Cen in the Organ mountains; Ek near Pinos Altos and Fort Bayard, in the Sierra ire mountains.
