Frothingham delivered aremarka- bie discourse at the morning service, m which he Im artlally dealt out his blows at the Catholics aud the Episcopalians aliko for the superstitions which ‘be laments to find them practising. ‘TH CONGREGATION ‘Was very large, and consisted apparently of plain, business people for the most part, to whom Bunday brought rest and reinxauion from care and toll, Con- ‘trary to what is the almost invartable fact in other Places of worship, the gentlemen were something more numerous than the ladies, and bald and gray heads were m a triumphant majority.

To concede that any unchristian people could bave an earnest and well devised sen: of divine things would be to stultify themselve: and so they preferred to render naught the argu- ment and illustration of the apostle. WHAYT 18 SUPRRSTITION? All classes of believers are ready io suppose their netghbors superstitious. Superstition is the great enemy of creed, all men cry oat, but nobody takes it into his head thai he is among the enemies of pure and simple faith, The common definition is that it Anciudes every unchbristian an unbellever. it 1s ex- ceedingly popular among Christians, but it never met mach tavor that I heard of among Jews aud Mohommedans, Others say superstition is “exces- sive reilgion,”’ as if there was a standard by whic! the exavt quantity of religion can be tested. Some Say itis “the beginning of religion.» No, the two things are autayonistic, are al war with one ane other all over the world. Some attribute supersti- tion to erring religions; but who shall tell us which 18 the false’ mune Kay it is devil worship, but the travel nearer who describe 16 ua fear ani ® cringing spirit in tie bed of heaven, Plutarch dwells with exceeding force on this vice of uperstition; but the German philosopher, Kant, hit matter more Dearly to the heart, when he sald “it fs a habit of regarding natural powers and influences ~ Peing. ponlese to Caprice, and 1t ts @ disregard of ww tn the natural world, the metaphysical world and the world of mind and spirit.

A duperstitious man 1s alarmed by some natural henomenon, » He cries out, “Ihave sinned—it is a judgment,” and he failson his knees and he brings offerings to disarm the wrath of the malnant being whom he cannot otherwise tiers Ut was only she other day that a Catholic priestim Kurope in- veighed against insurances as devices to bauik God, and tricks to elude the judgments ofthe Evernal, who sends misfortunes and death that men may be duly punished for their sins. AN BX-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES DIES A SUPERSTITIONS DEATH. An ex-President of the United States, lying on his déath bed, @ good man, of trreproacnabie life, called for & minister of the Gospel and expressed his desire to be sprinkled with the water of baptism, and his hope that 1t was not yet too late, being so sprinkled that he might entertain a confidence of eternal re- ward, ‘1his intelligent, excellent man had no faith in his virtue, truth, honor and integrity, or the tidelity with which he tried to discharge a great nauonal trust; but he hoped to obtain from some miraculous efficacy in afew drops of water what all the toil of along and wel! spent life would not procure. The preacher next referred at some length to the beet osCatholics and Episcopalians with respect to the Eucharist as superstitious, quoting In proof the catechism and prayers of the Episcopal church, and went on to say that even some Unitarian ministers who teach w a@ mystic effect inheres in the ele- ments of the communion by which those who ob- verve the rite are in some pecuhar and indescriba- ble Way sanctified. This, le said, is very es- sence of superstition; there is no better illustration of it than the rite of communion depending on the perishable elements of bread and wine instead of virtne. The spirit of superstition has taken posses- wlon ever of the sweet person of Jesus, represents that the sacrifice of His life dispenses with ours, that He stands in place of us, and something He did or suffered entities us to enter into glory of which of ourselves we should not be deserving. The next illustration was the belief of Catholics on the indulgences at the Franciscan churches, Which the reverend gentleman described as obtaining pardon for all sins past, present and to come; in other words, free pass to heaven. HORRORS OF SUPERSTITION. He concluded by saying superstition ts worse than war, pestilence, poverty, evil government, unjust laws or despotism. All these may be overcome or put aside, but superstition 1s a disease of the mind and the soul; a disorder inevadicable in the hear that demoralizes all our ideas of the universe 0! CHURCH OF THE MESSIAH. God in His Providence—Sermon by Rev. George H. Hepworth. The Ohurcn of the Messiah, at the corner of Park avenue and Thirty-fourth street, was opened yester- day, and at the morning and evening services great Buinbera assembled to hear the eloquent ad- dresses of the able divime who officiates in that eminently fashionavie church. In the evening particularly the denizens of Murray Hill and the surrounding aristocratic district crowded into tue church and filled it to it utmost capacity, testing the powers of the courteous sexton to find sitting accommodation forall. After an ex- tempore prayer and the singing of a hymn the preacher delivered his sermon, on the providence of God, taking for his text the words of God tn the twentieth chapter of Exodus, twenty-third verse: — “Behokl, I send an angel before thee, to Keep thee in the way and to bring thee Into the place which I have prepared.” Beijief in the presence of God, said the speaker, seems to have been an all- pervading idea among the nations of antiquity. In Many nations it was the most marked characteristic, the inspiration of everything great and good which they accomplished, Each nation seems to have been possessed With the thought that GOD WAS FIONTING WITH THEM. In the Trojan war, the history of which has been handed down to our times in imperishable verse, Wondrous deeds of valor were dune, were giants in those days. but the those deeds was the bellef that thelr gods were hovering over them witnessing witi approval the | doughty blows of their strong righi aris, and, When Wiese arms grew ured, ready tv give them renewed strength, In the Hebrew race the belief in an ever. resent God existed even in a more marked egree.

In the life of great nations often seen. For instance, in the freat internecine war which desolated this country ¢ nation always trusted in ;, and when things were at their worst and the end secined near hand God delivered the’ na- tion and saved the country. Ap inspiration was necessary, and itcame to Lincoln, th: od man, and whet he with trembling voice prociaimed the emancipation of the negro, God who always decreed at men tn this country should be free and equal, rolled back the tiae of victory and scattered the ene- mies of the Union, Truly tlils last page of the his- tory of the country is written by the Almighty—aye, written in blood.

Yet, from all this evil free will flow, and Napoleon in his downlall will tear royal robes trom all the monarchs of Europe and from the Pope himself. Christians should therefore know that they are co-operating with God in the great work of elevating the human race and bringing about the great ends foreseen by Him: from all eternity, and being possessed with this thought they wil receive with equanimity whatever falls to their lot, confident that it is for their good, and that God will make all right in the end, an Will accouplish their salvation and bring Wem to the haven of eternal rest CHURCH OF THE RESURRECTION.

The Catholicity of Quakerism—Their Mode of Dress aud Wership—Service at Twen- tieth’ Street Chnreh Yesterday—Male and Female Preaching—Riches, but Not Cevet- ousness. Among the thousand and oue religions denomina- tions at present existing in the world there 13 not a body who appear more fully to comprehend and ap- preciate the scriptural command which bias the godly come out from among the worldly and their associations than the Quakers. In their mode of worship, their style of dress, their conversation; in their counting houses as wel! as in their private circles, tbe same uniform regard for their peculiar tenets 1s everywhere plainly apparent, and cannot fail to be seen even by the most casnal observer. Thetr significant employment of the second person SINGULAR, “THEE” AND “THOU,” in familiar discourse and in addressing their own Triends as well as strangers 18 suilicient of itself to point them out and denote their creed in whatever part of the world they may be located. Another remarkable fact is that, no matter in what country you meet a member of the socicty, or rather brotherhood, whether in the gay towns of England, where frequently articles of clothing are looked upon by certain classes almost ine th light of gods, or among the gaudily attired hosts of tne Parisian capital, where the cunning milliner exerts herself to the utmost to meet the requirements of the age in blending every conceivable color into the arena of fashion, the same simple ‘dress of the Quaker is to be seen, without variation, without change. The tall, dark beaver hat, with a brim in some cases five inches in width. hts spotiessly white cravat and short collar, the waistcoat so cur that it fits close up to the throat, the black pantaloons and immense broadcloth coat are stereotyped fashions, from which no deviation is ever made. The female attire is gencrally as conspicuous in shape and color as that worn by the men. It has frequently been said that all these peculiarities are eyidences of cramped and narrow religious views, and are INDICATIONS OF ECCKNTRICITY occasioned by adhering strictly to tenets which are as overstrenuous as they are unnecessary and un- called for. Be that as Itmay, no one can doubt their entire sincerity in the majority of instances, and their unostentatious manner, combined with their candid and charitable mode of life, goes a long way in proving that at least they adhere in great part to ‘the primeval metbod of Christian worship. ‘The meeting house in Twentieth street was yes- terday morning toicrably well filled by about nalt- ast ten O'c\oC! ‘his 18 the largest and most cor fortable mecting house they bave in New York, and can easily seat a THOUSAND PBRSONS. ‘The congregation attached to this place 1s also considerably larger than either of the other two, and the beholder could but be strack with the ex- tremely respectable aspect of all present. There were five elders present of the male side and three female elders. Alter a pause of about twenty minutes, during which time the study of mental arithinetic or some abstract science could have been suc fully carried on in the mind, one of old ladies laid aside her deliberately knelt in the bonnet and quietly and rayer, and her supplications were certainly of a eautitul and touching description, in which she desired that all who had met there might be filled with the same spirit of holiness and tranquility and Theet at the throne of grace with one accord; if there was one present who had not partaken of the heavenly gifts, that he might be stirred up to lay hold of them without delay. Having ended her prayer, which lasted ten minutes, the congregation standing the meanwhile, she retired to her seat and as rapidly as possible clasped her hand over her forehead, as though Lo prevent the too sudden escape of the HEAVENLY VISION which the spirit had conjured up. Again a silence of fifteen minutes ensued, and again caine the same solemn thought of how much quieter could death be than this, ot a movement occurred for some time, but at length one of the male elders on tie gj geat began to wriggle considerably in his seat and change the walking stick be held quickly from one hand to the other, now pressing the knob on the end of it aguinsi first one cheek and then the other, and gave other Imdications of the working of the spirit within, FINALLY HE OSB, and, after remaining standing with his eyes closed for about a minute, he said:—The memory of the Saviour’s discourse with the man who had com- plained of his brottfer’s covetousness had been forci- bly brought before his mind that morning, and he conid not » feeling that that same spirit of covet- ousness pervaded society to a very great extent to- day. The illustration which the baviour gave tohis disciples in relating the parable concerning the ma: who bad received Ko much of Gad’a DountonnADrss that bis barns and could no con- tain them, and that he was compelled to them down and rebuild them, was as beau! and as ples to be treed from the crime of.

At the well of Samaria He imparted to the misguided Samaritan woman wealth beyond computation, at the same giving a splenaid illustration of the equitable manuer im which Ho dispensed the gifts which His Father had placed within His control. Set aside coveteousness, then, and endeavor to follow Him who spent His career on earth in endeavoring to teach mankind the value of God's gifts as well as the timely and good purposes for which they were to be employed. After the above discourse, which was delivered with great earnesiness and simplicity, the old lady fa named rose to her feot and addressed the meeting. Her first words were, ‘What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world aud lose his own soul?” It was, she sald, NO SIN TO HAVE RICHES, for God frequently gave them as a reward for time and talent spent in a certain vocation in the world, or it might be the result of an honorable ambition which every one of good feeling applauded, but in either case it must be remembered that God did not give them, He only lent them to the possessors; He only made aman @ repository, and gave him in- structions to dispense them to the poor and need and not witbhold them to his own destruction. It was @ special penaity for a rich man to hold his wealth against the direct commands of his Creator; and that mam must be weak tudeed who thinks his wealth is his own to do ashe likes with.

In afew minutes an elder of aldermante proportions knelt in prayer, and, after invoking a cry a upon all present in that building, he prayed that throughout the length and breadth of this great country God might make His power manilest and reclaim thousands of wanderers into the fold of Christ, Another silence followed, and in a moment the last named gave the signal of separation by seizing the hand of a brother near him, and every one seized each other’s hand, and, hats being tie next requisite called for, the meeting separated. 1. Was apparent that some of the elders knew how to employ # part of this world’s goods, for some of tue horses and carriages which were waiting at the entrance of the church were simply magnificent, displaying not only wealth, but great taste also. A PROPHET IN HIS OWN COUNTRY. Av Inspired Bishop in the Tangled Wii of the Apocalypwo—Messenger Snow Delivers a Despatch from Heaven. The Most Reverena Bishop Snow, who advertises himself as “the much-abused Messenger of Christ,” Preached yesterday afternoon in the chapel of the University, Washington sauare, The subject was the “Downfall of the Nations,” and the preacher's ad- Vertisement attracted about one hundred persons, ‘who attended to learn what were the particular na- tions it would be prudent to keep away from in the immediate future. The prophet sought his text (as usual) from the book of Revelations, several and va- rious chapters of which he recited, rather than read, not 80 much for the purpose of expounding the inspired writings as of supporting and sus- taining his own opinions on things in general. He took especial delight in quoting those chapters and verses of St. John wherein 1t is predicted that the towers of the earth shall fall and crumble until not a whole brick Is left anywhere; that the mountains shall be rolled out fat and the valleys raised up, and that out of a certain great mountain a@ stone shall be cut, without the ald of human hands and unseen by human eyes, which stone shall be hurled against the image whose feet are com- posed of a mixture of brass and clay. POPULAR THEOLOGY, the preacher said, is a humbug and an atro- cious lie from beginning to end. It pre- tenda to interpret some portions of the Sa- cred Writings literally, whereas every man to whom the Lord vouchsafes especial wisdom knows that the Scriptures must all be regarded as so many figures of speech. It ts ridicnious for ordi- nary mortals to think that they can or ought to read the Bible for their-own iustruction or that of any- body else. pres ia) those who lead spiritual lives and ave in the habis of entertaining the Holy Ghost at regular intervals shouki dare to put any construc- tion whatever on the words and phrases used by writers who were themselves taught directly by the Holy Spirit how to express His ideas on all the sub- jects in which mere mortality ought to be interested. It is falsely asserted by those constitutional liars, the upholders and professors of begs theology, that the Scriptures are to rellea On for all the light that is needed to guide the darkened mind in this world. No such thing. The popular theologians are all humbugs, and they have brought the world to a pretty state of morality and progress by their absurd teachings. ‘The audience knew well—and if they did not know it they were very ignorant and their education had becn lamentabiy neglected—that the moon had no light of its own; but it shone under certain circum- stances, and when placed in certain positions rela- tive to the earth and the suv, because tie light of the sun was reflected from its surface to this planet, and Luna was only A DEALER IN SECOND HAND ILLUMINATIONS at best. Well, the Spirit of the Lord God was as the iginal light of the sun, which never changed and never waned on any account, notwithstan ling the crazy notions of some benighted astronomers who pretend to see darksome spots upon its face. If the Spirit of God shines upon the pages of the Scrip- tures, then they reflect the true light of salvation; but otherwise they are as dark and deceptive as the moon under an eclipse. ‘the Spirit of God had visited him, the prophet, and when he rested his eves upon the sacred it became luminous beneath his gaze and the truth shone from every line. Every word he then spoke was the pure truth as the great God intended it should be re- vealed unto mankind, and he called upon God to ratify His prophet's words or confound him there and then. (There was no audible contradiction.) ‘The towers to which the author of the Revelations had alluded were tall rhetorical figares, used to sig- nify the Kingdoms of the earth; the mountams meant the crying abominations that had infested the world in the shape of ROMAN CATHOLICS, JEWS AND MORMONS} the valleys indicated the humbie and not at all nu- merous body of righteous persons who were to be found scattered here and there among the various sects of Protestantism; and the image whose feet were of brass and clay was the scarlet and accursed anti-Christ known as Popery. The towers are fall- ing already. There was France, the bloodiest and most unholy supporter of the Roman Popish in- famy—where is France now? Down in the dust where she ought to be. And where is the antl-Christ Pope? Coming down every day, and all good men rejoice at the approaching doom of abominable Rome. And so it will soon be with all the kingdoms and empires of Europe. CHRIST 18 NOW COMING Yea, He is at the very door; and his chosen peo- ple, the true seed of Abraham—who are not the Jews, nor the Romans, nor the Mormons—will now possess the earth and rule ft, The chosen people of Christ are they on whom the Holy Ghost has de- scended, and whom He has inspired after the manner of immortal beings. It 1s an outrageous falsehood to saygthat every human being has a soul vy virtue of his humanity, ar that he was born with a soul des- tined to inherit and enjoy 1mmortality. No; immor- tality has been conferred on us long after birth, by the special visit of the Divine Spirit; and very few of us have been thought worthy of immortality. ‘The river of water flowing from the throne of Divine grace, set up in THE APOCALYPTICAL CITY OR THE JUST, has only been sparingly partaken of, and the Roman Catholics, the dew and the Mormons have been ex- cluded from the privilege of immortality, (Here the prophet consulted his watch and admitted it was time for him to stop.) ‘The sermon was listened to pretty attentively throughout, but now and then a somnolent listener would insist on going to sleep, when he was sure to be attended to by an active friend of the prophet’s, who danced actively from one bench to another, supplying a weak child with water, or tick! a dozer’s nose ani presenting him with a palin-leat fan, by exercising which he might keep himself awake, The services conciuded with @ hymn, m which the great Captain was most unmusically in- voked to lead the audience immediately to battle against all the demons of Romanism, Judaism aud Mormonisin. BETHEL METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH. COLORED The Want of Faith and the Necessity of Wis- dom—Sermon by the Rev. Mr. Jenkins. Yesterday morning there assembled at Bethel Methodist Episcopal church, situated in Sullivan street, between Bleecker and Amity streets, a very small but respectably dressed congregation. This cnnreh Js under the pastorship of the Rev. Mr. Tur- pin, a gentieman of education and profound minis- terlal acquirements, The congregation attached to this chareh is excessively large—tin fact too large for its dimensions—but the humble circumstances of many of its members prohibit them from enlarging their present stracture.

She isa tree of life to them that lay hold upon her, and happy is every one that retameth her.” Ab sinners, sald he, that retain the spirit of God and walk in the path of righteousness, their ways are the ways of pleasaniness, and all their paths are peace. But to walk in the path of right- eoushess nan must acquire Lhe knowledge contamed in the Seripture, which the Almighty has submitted to us a8 & guiding star TO THE GATES OF GLORY, “Happy js the man that findeth wisaom and tne man that getteth understanding,” saith the Lord, Mang of our brethren complain ot the rough way the Christian walks, This is only for want of faith. if after redemption we could Wwaik a straigut road to Jesus many of us would have been in glory tong ago, But the Lord did not intend it to be so, God tries us all and tells us to believe in Hin and we shail be saved. “Lam the faith and the light.” These and many other words of encouragement He gives us to lead us on. If we be- Heve in Jesus our way 18 pieasantness and our paths are peace. ‘Ihe Christian's path 18 rough, If ike a snake, we are init now and then out of it, very often We get too far out and allow the devil to in- fluence us to remain out.

Brothers, all of you who retain wisdom grasp after more, and then, saith the Lord, shalt thou walk in the way safely and thy foot shall not stum- bie. Wisdom holds the length of days in her right hand, and in her left are riches and honor. by the acquisition of wisdom, together with ite fa execution, man is left to enjoy a much longer ue.

Sale of Pews—An Overflowing Treasury. ‘The regar sale of pews in the Jewish Temple Emanv-el, corner of Forty-third street and Fifth avenue, took place yesterday forenoon. There were still 127 pews unsold, and the constitution and by- laws of the congregation require a sale yearly dur- the month of September, until all the pews have been disposed of, Punctually at ten o'clock Mr, Myer Stern, one of the trustees of the congregation, ascended a smail stand erected in front of the pulpit and declared that the sale would com- mence. He stated the terms of the sale, which were as follows:—Each pew for sale had been appraised by the board of trustees, and the price affixed to it was Gnal. ‘The competition among purchasers Would therefore be only as to the premium to be Daid for the pew over and above such price, That Premium must be paid in full at the tme of the delivery of the deed for the pew, together with one- half of its appraised value; the deierred payments may be made in five yearly instalments, interest at the rate of seven per cent per year being luposed upon the amounts remaining due. it was at once evident that there was not much bidding to be done, the trustees being perfectly satisfied with the present financial condition of the congregation. ‘Their receipts last year were no jess than $92,627, while the actual ex- penses of the church were only $38,179, enabling them to make 8 donation to the Hebrew Orphan Asy- lum of over $17,000, However, three pews were sold, bringing, with the premium, over $5,000 into the treasury, the rest being rented at prices varying from $260 to $350 per year. At the Synagogue Shaarai Teflla the selling and oes of pews was also made the business of the day. Here the sales were made privately, varying from $500 to $1,500 per pew, and over one hundred seats were rented at prices ranging from $100 to $200 per year. BROOKLYN CHURCHES. A NEW CONGREGATION, Rev. Hugh Smith Carpenter at the Poly- tecunic Institute. Since June last religious services have been hela every Sabbath in the chapel of the Polytechnic Institute, in Livingston street, where the Rey. Hugh Smith Carpenter, an earnest and eloquent minister of the Gospel, preached to a somewhat small but gradually increasing congregation. Mr. Carpenter was formerly from Portland, Me., where he presided over a very large church of the Presbyterian denomi- nation; but for a number of years prior to last spring he was pastor of the Westminster Presbyte- rian church, in South Brookiyn. Last spring, how- ever, he HAD SOME DIFFICULTY with @ portion of the congregation there and re- signed the pastorate. A number of the members of the congregation who espoused his cause joined with him and commenced the formation of a new church, The chapel of the Polytechnic Institute was secured, and there Mr. Carpenter nas been preaching since June, as before stated. The move- ment has been attended with such success that they are all encouraged to continue it until their object shall have been fully attained. It 1s the intention of bn Leta and congregation to make this a free chureh. Mr. Carpenter is apparently about fifty years of age, and his discourses are characterized by re- markable force and elegance, which, when com- bined with the preacher's earnest delivery, place him among the ablest ministers of ‘the Cily of Churches, Although the new church is now in its Infancy the people are sanguine of ultimate success, and are now working to secure It. Mr. Carpenter preached yesterday morning before @ comparatively large congregation, selecting his text from Joel i, 27—“And my people shall never be ashamed.” Shame, the preacher said, was at once the most delicate and the most tyrannical condition of the homan mind. None other was so subtle, and none other so sweeping in its reach. Shame vetoed the most vehement inclinations and checked the most ae designs. There might be observed, he ¢on- tinued, TWO KINDS OF SHAME. That which related to our external circumstances, and that which regarded our internal conditiol Pride and vanity presented one aspect of sham God intended that He Himself should take conspici ous delight in all ae pecan al therefore they were to be emboldened in His name. God's people, in the first piace, should never be ashamed of their faith in Him, and, {n the second place, should never be ashamed in their faith. it was seen, however, that the Almighty always placed Himself in such an attitude upon this earth that mankind could love Him or dis- card Him, that the human heart could exult in Him or despise Him. This was to make the affection offered Him @ moral ern He saw fit to present Himself in such an attitude that they could choose or refuse Him. Mr. Carpenter, in the concluding portion of his discourse, referred to the trials of Christians in early days, saying that to be a witness tor Jesus was to be a martyr, and spoke of the promise of the Lora tained in the text that His people would neve: ashamed. Mr. Carpenter also preached in the evening. PLYMOUTH CHURCH, Plymonth Church Shorn of Female Loveli- ness and Fall Fashions—Preaching by “Brother James?—What He Thinks About New York and Sixth Ward Society—Hell Don’t Surpass ft. Plymouth church was not crowded yesterday; the uncertain weather of the early morning ani the ab- sence of the pastor kept that portion of the congre- gation away who reside some distance from the church, That which was remarkable, however, about yesterday morning's congregation was the large number of men who were present. Woman im her loveliness and her adornments was not re- presented by so great a throng as usual, and the femenine portion of the congregation who were present were not arrayed in anything that was remarkably characteristic of the prevailing fall fashions. ‘The announcement made very early in the service that the pastor of the church would preach inthe church next Sunday seemed to be received with delight by the congrega- tion. It had been feared that the neea for a com- plete convalescence on the part of Mr. Beecher might extend his vacation another Sunday. That this was not the case was heard with heartfelt satis- faction, Mr. Beecher’s brother James has occupied the pulpit of the church during the Jast few Sup- NEW YORK HEKALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 181U.—TRIPLE SHEET, Gays. He mw very unlike his half-brother Henry not 1m physical appearance only, but in mental build also, James i# the son of Dr, Lyman Beeoher’s second wife, Harriet Porter, whose family is described in Dr. beecher’s “Autobiography” a8 one of elegant refinement and of distinguished social position, The second Mrs. yi ane ee ood ts dames, her bi- ograpber says, had a fee |, COM and packers and yover | mate a ery i was justly regarded as & model. Her son must have Ioneriied shaee qualities of his mother which ena- bled her to be composed and serene. He lacks the Jollity, freedom of speech, and naturalness of his eminent brother, and this contrast will help to tn- crease the fervor of the weloome that will be given to the pastor when he occupies his accustomed place next Sunday, Mr. James Beecher's subject was, as announced by himself, “The exaltation of Jesus Ulrist by rea. son of His peculiar nature,” The text selected was the ninth and tenth verses of the Second chapter of the Epistle of Pant tothe Philippians—‘*Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him aname which is above every name. ‘that ut the name of Je- sus every Knee should bow, of thingsin heaven, and ‘things in earth, and things under the earth.” The exaltation of Christ was the consequence of Lis low- Iiness here on earth. If we are to be tuly exalted in life our exaltation must be dependent upon our humanity. Itwas the great bane of our religious life that 'men put so much seitishuess in it, thus making the Sermon on the Mount A KIND OF PIOUS ANOMALY. ‘This thought was pursued at sowe length under every Seree, of illustration, showing the natural connection between true humanity and the wue exaltation of our own nature, He aiso endeavored to show that the effect of @ life of formalism in re- ligion was productive of deeper degradation than that of = heathenism or — intidelity, If we wanted to find how low men could descend morally We must hot | go to heathen, but to Chrisuan lands, The spiritual pride that was wrought by @ pharisaical religion Produced characteristics of national lie that were more Gegrading than anything that heathenism produced, ,lt required a palace to make a hovel ‘possible, required religious observances te make @ Sixth ward possible. It required a Filth avenue to make @ tenement house or & barracks possible. He believed there was more heathenism and more degradation in New York clly than any other city on the Continent, He had seen the partahs im India, the South Sea Islanders, the trackers tn Florida and’ the degraded tribes of South America, but he bad never seen such men aud women as in New York city. London might equa! them, but HELL DID NOT SURPASS THEM. The reason of ail this was that religion was nota fruitful religion, but a selfish one. Our love for Christ was up and not down. We should seek our pag work and life among the lowly aud the humble. JERSEY CITY CHURCHES. Services at Grace Church | (Episcopal—Ser- mon by the Pastor, Kev. Mr. Kice. Foremost among the Protestant Episcopal churehes of Jersey City is Grace chureh, at the corner of Erie and South Seventh streets. The pastor, Rev. Mr. Rice, is one of the most earnest and yet unassuming laborers in the cause of religion. Nothing sensa- tional ever penetrates the sanctuary; no diatribe or invective against the heterodox ever escapes his iips in the pulpit or out of it. Quiet, retiring and ex- emplary in bis demeanor, his great success as a pastor lies in the fact that his practice as a Chrisuan never conflicts witn his preaching. His text yesterday at the morning service was from St. Pavi—‘The old things have passed awa: behvid, ail chings are become new. ‘The apostle desires to convey by this expression that there is 4 complete change in Cirist, embracing the heart witnin and the life without. He does not tusinuate ‘that our frail natnre 1s destroyed, for in that case there would be no conflict with sin; but the heart is so changed and the atiections so transformed that the man hates sin. There is a great difference be- tween the abandonment of an evil habit and a change of heart from the siavery of the devil to the love of God. The tree may be cat down, but the sprouts will spring up and become not one, but many trees, so that the last state of that man is worse than the first. ‘The preacher then exhorted bern his publications now by the is scarcely a Vocal or instrumental ay] Sea tina!

The Religious Services in Washington. WASHINGTON, Sept. 18, 1870. Rev. Dr. Boynton to-day preached before a very respectable and intelligent congregation at the Assembly Presbyterian church. He took his text from Ephesians vi., 18—“Praying always with ali prayer aud supplication in spirit and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints,” Christ had said to his disciples that “unless ye be converted and become as little chil- Gren ye shall not enter mto une kingdom of heaven.’ The Rev. Dr. Boynton drew from his text arguments and reasons in support of the necessity of prayer and delivered a sermon which throughout marked by great originality of thought and power of expression. He explained clearly the eMcacy of Prayer and of spiritual mediation just as on earth such things were likewise needed. Rev. Dr. Rankin preached in the morning in the First Congregational church, corner ot Tenth and G streets, upon the subject “Doing Truth.” Ateleven A.M, Eider 0. A.
