Rounp Lak |. Y¥., July 11, 1871. What an endless amount of “spirit wrestling’ these woods have witnessed and heard tn the past week! It may be talked of or written about, but it cannot be measured, and only those wilo have heard the prayers, tho groans, the ecstatic shouts, the sighs and seen the physical parox- ysms, the clapping of hands, the kneeling, the jumping, the blanching of cheeks, the faintiag of men and of women, can re alize the frenzies into which the human mind may be wrought by the contemplation of religion, With no desire to be captious, I cannot but think that a less demonstrative form of supplica- tion for or manifestation of faith and “power” would be more becoming the dignity of all appeals to the Deity, and yet it would be dificult to finda boay of people more earnest and apparently nonest in the views they express and the way they illus- trate their precepts by their practice. But there are, I know, quite a numter of devout people here who Y- 12, 1871.—TRIPLE SHEET. do not prefer this STORMY KIND OF RELIGION, and to whom the services in the circle las5 evening must have proved a gratifying occasion, And it was the calm, dispassionate earnestness of one man that soothed these emotional spirits down—that man, Rev. William McDonald, of Brooklyn. ‘The trees in the circle are all quite tall and straight, and it was @ strange sight to witness the assembling of the worshippers tn this Druid temple. It was an amphitheatre of symme- trical columns, with un umbrageous roof, through which a star peeped here and there at intervals, and a range of spectral white tents en- closed the assembled throng on all sides. Fifty lamps sheu a subdued light over the grounds, and as the bell cailed the brotherhood and sisterhood together through the narrow streets they defiled nto the arena, and soon there were 3,000 persons grouped about the rostrum. While the audience was assembling the leaders on the platform struck up a eheerful hymn—a sort of CHRISTIAN “SLOGAN” it seemed—and the strains were taken up by the people outside as they streamed into the circle, and at last singers and song alike were fused into one compact harmony. It was a splendid chorus, and nature’s soiltudes have seldom heard a greater pean to their Creator. At last the “power” was manifest, and many of the brethren began to shout 1n stentorian to nes, “Glory-be-to-God!”” “M-0-r-c p-0-w- er?’ “Oh, yes; come Lord Jesus!” “Right here!’ and Brother Inskip began to rub his handsas he looked over the heads of the throng and anticipated “a precious meeting.’” WHAT A NOISY CHRISTIAN Brother Inskip is! It seems to be a theory of his that mental ex cirement is the surest way to enlist the attention or affections of the audience in prayer or praise, and the more of this ‘sacred uproar” he invokes the more swimmingly the ship of salvation seems, In his eyes, to sail. And thereis something that “all those wno conld feel that their souls were parely and wholly sanctified and that they had been made White in the blood of the Lamb should stand up. Several huncred persons arose snd raised their night hands tn response to a further request that all should do 30 Who weve ‘willing to pray right Jhere for the outpouring God's spirit upon those who had not yet recewved it”? Then commenced and period Of vociierations, and “God be praised “rHallelujah!’ “Bless the Lamb!’ “More power!” were a few of the ejaculations of the congregation. One stout, old lady, on the right of tne stand, ralsed both bands, and, owing lo some asthmatic or throat affection, stouted In a manner that Was painful i+ deed to Hear, When these were seated Brother Inskip suggested that all tho-e who were willine at onee “right here in this meetin’ to give themselves up to God, and who wanted the prayers of the other brothers and sisters, to stand up. Several hundred of candidates stood and A CHORUS OF BIACULATIONS was the result at such a large show of wiiling hearts, Then Brother inskip proposed that those who were standing should sing a hymn wile the “wholly | sanctified” partof the audience prayed for then silenily. Afier this several other hymns were sung and re. peated at the ferviad request of the rec meeting disperse’, fully one third of the humming or singing ymns a3 they passed to their tents. Among the congregation was a group of persons copsisting of a young man and two women. They | sangloadiy and well, and prayed and laughet tn | their prayers tn a hysterical sort of way. — When Brother laskip proposed that “prayer tn silence,” the young man remarked in @ pecvish way to the young woman near him, “Oh, yes, silent prayer; aud the first thing you know ne'll raise a urricane,” ‘the young woman poluted to a very attentive listener near by, whom she apparently recognized, and said, ‘See, he’s takin’ tt ali in. You know he's got to preach next Sunday.’” In a few ininuates the ten o’clock bell tolled and all stole away to their tents to sleep and renew their devotions at five o'clock this morning. In speaking of the matter of these oft-recurring deyoutlons, as regniated by tie rules and as indulged in by the peopie voluntarily, I cannot resist the im- pression that there is TOO MUCH OF IT, and I express the opinion after much reflectton upon it. With most of the campers it 18 a continuous day here of excitemenrs of the strongest possible de- scription, and in many cases puluful to witness. Men and women are at all times here working them- selves up to such a high pitch of physical and ner- yous action that [ am sometimes opliged to feel anxious regarding them, though only @ looker-on and a perfect stranger. For example, after the regular services a few evenings since & prayer meeting was calied in the circle, and quite u number of people—certainly several hundred— attended, Among them was one lady who evinced a state of mental enthusiasm und nervous excite. ment that was truly dangerous. In the exces- sive zeal of her heart she rose in the assembly and ejaculated a variety of exclama- tions of a supplicatang nature, clapped her hands, wildly and rapidly, and vociferate. in a manner that alarmed ine for her physical aud mental welfare. Her face assumed a livid expression in the intensity of her nervous excitement, and the color forsook her lips, while the expression of her eyes became fixed and vacant. When this paroxysm—for it was nothing else—of excitement had sub- sided she was apparently exhausted to the last degree. And such cases are by no means rare both among men and women. Of course there are many persons who will view these remarks from a prejudiced standpoint and consider their author @ scoffer, but they are reflections that are forced upon me, and I say that it 1s physically dangerous, and must be at least weakening to the mental facuities, where such excessive prostration ensues froin such undue excitement, Lust say also that observation, here as elsewhere, leads rae to the belief that it 1s rarely among the most intelligent Methodiats that such excesses of excitement are found to exist. It is usually among weaker organt- zations, who are led up to this stage by the fervid exhortations of those who ure their intellectual superiors, Almost any one who ever visited a camp meeting must have noticed the seeming lassituae in rela- tion to all other matters save the services aud prayer meetings which pervades all the wor- shippers. In a quiet, sleek sort of way they wander about the grounds, and accost each other as “brother” or “sister” tn @ sleek, supdued voice, ana if anything outside of the real objects of the meeting 18 mentioned to them they seem almost absent minded. Another pecullarity 1s the prevalent stinginess among many of the visitors 1n all the little financial Obligations they incur. Lodging ts turnished by the in his presence and manner that seems to pro- voke demousiration. He approaches the desk and shouts, “How many are there here that have hola of Christ to-night?” A storm of voices on every hand echo “How many?’ “Glory, glory, giory!” “Come to theymercy seat!” and one man on the right of the rostrum almost deafens those near bim witha high-pitched, strong voice, as he yells “A—men !’ That man's “amens”’ are one of the lustitutions of the meeting. Amid a whirlwind of sobbing sounds and groans and shouts like those just given, a manly voice on the platiorm gives the keynote of the hym Biow ye the trumpet blow, ‘Tue giadly solemn sound, afd again a storm of voices make the woods resound in song. Then a “reverend brother” advances and reads a long list of requests that have been hauded in, ask- ing the prayers of the congregation, which were read as fullows;— “From a mother for her three unconverted sons— two of whom are here, the other in Minnesota.’? “For a Catholic priest in Cincinnati.” Ghiot the next national camp meeting at Urbana, 10. “A wife asks prayers for an unconverted hus- bana.” THE READER— Then follows another which I can’t read, but the Lord knows what 1t ts, “A clergyman asks for the conversion of his daughter here to-nigiit.”” At the close of the reading of these requests the congregation engages in slient prayer for several minutes and a brother on the platform begins an. ther hymn, in which all the congregation again take part. Then Brother Inskip steps once more to the fren and siates that there nas been some question rai AS TO THE PLANS to be carried out at their meeting. Well, sald he, I don’t know that there will be any pians about it. We are going to do away with this plan or methodl- cal way of holding our meetings and conduct them ag the spirit moves. Tnere has been too much method, as “method” is generally underswou among Methodisis, and when we came on to this stand tonignt we had no idea whether the meeting would be held In any regular Way or whether auy sermon would be preached. We think it would be as well to hear ‘what the spirit wishes the,brethren to say, and now Tam going to call on brother McDonald if the spirit prompts him to speak to us. az Brother MCDONALD then stepped forward ana said he proposed to say someting to themon the subject of Christiaa-hohuess, He then proceeded in w very attractive and calm manuer to discuss the various PHASES OF SANCTIFICATION, contending, among other points, that although there were many saucufed men aud women truly and devoutly surrendered to God, stti! amoug these there were some Who were not sanctified whuuy. He be- lieved that entire sanctifiction was not attainable Without experience even after the Christian had voluntarily yielded himself up to God. By degrees i further acts of grace would become revealed, cording as iigut was given to him to see his ways, and at last the sanctidcation | through iaith was complete, To illustrate his idea he took the case of Brother Inskip, who, when he became converted, Was au ardent votary of the use of tobacco, and even continued it for some time—a brief ume, however—alter he was ordamed. At last the debasing navure of the habit was revealed to hun and he determined no longer to Geille himseif with THE FILTHY PRACTICE, and he abandoned it. In this way, by surrendering all ior Christ, sanctification became perfect. But it could ouly be done through faith, and the attainment of @ hich degree of faith was @ matter about Wii} many were mistaken, some believed that it wos necessary to hold on to faith; he believed that to realize faith tt was best to let go—to let go oj everyting. He had seen those who had wrestied and struggted and fought for faitn, and they had said tO Imm that they had not got tat which they so strove for. He had told them that struggling for it was not the Way to get it-—and he would maintain that belief, The true way to get faith was to ask and to beileve that we had received, and then we should be satisfied through faith, Faith was the’substance of the thing itself. Toward the close of uis argument Brother Inskip, who, a3 I have already stated, 13 u noisy WRESTLING SORT OF CHRISTIAN, asked in ® sort of compromising way if Brother MeDonald @idn’t think a litte wrestling and strug- ging with faith was good? Mrother MCDONALD hesitated @ moment and re- plied tha’ he was about to say no, but that alter all he (aougit that there were some people who ought je and wrestle and hold on with ali their might, ; shuply to convinee them how littie they accom: i by i Them they g@eneraily lec go and plisn emoyed tho (ull pleasures of sanctidcation.

He didn't know Ul he could make them shout, and wouldn't do it if ne could, and therefore asked of them their earnest attention.” The drift aud imeaning of his remark was felt during the whole evening, and he at ance re- sutwed his discussion in a quiet, thoughtiul, earnest aud exceeningty linpressive manner. His voice 13 full, rich and soft, and it was apparent that his words had more real effect than any amount of vio- lent exhortation could have, The lawer course would bave MADE AN UPROAR which would have distracted attention, waile tho line he parsued piainiy pinned @ thought on every mind by its resistiess earmestuess and soothing utter. ance.
