Gormen by Dr. Bellows—Ths Duty ef Kvery Manon Election Day—Aa Uraeut Appent to Voters, There wasa crowded congrezation yosterday at All Souls’ chureh, for worship and to lisien to an advertised discourse by Dr. Bellows on “The Public ‘Smportance of Private Fidelity.” The text selected ‘was from the sixth chapter of the Gospel of St, John— “There is a lad here who has five baricy loaves And two small fishes, and what are they among so many?” After an elaborate but striking and practicai imtro- @uction the Doctor earnestly addressed his congre- gation on their auty on Tucsday next, and said:— A miscrable attachment to busmess might Keep men from the polls oo ‘Tucsuay, ana the result ‘would De that some nuble-inmded reformer woud lose & seat, and the way would be Je: open for an {| ing election, He said:— To-day I address you aa the sovereign people, as the rulers of the land, and as the morning of tho day of clection approaches, I ask you what you will do on that day? When you appoint yeur officials, when you elect your agents to office, what do you surrender into their hands? Nothing less than your lives, your liberties and your property. You entrust them with the education of your cnil- dren. You confide to them the framing of the laws by which you will be governed in the pure administration of justice, You entrust into their hands nothing less wan the prosperity of this great State, and the ‘wealth of four militons of people. I ask you, are you alivo to what you are doing? Do think of the im- portance of the act which you aro performing, and show it by care in the selection of men? Doshow that you appoint none but good men—men of repu- tation and of education. A tailor, an ordinary one, musi serve a long apprenticesnip to his business; 80 must a carpenter or a blacksmith; the druggist most submit to a critical cxamination; a lawyer or @ ciergyman who would fit himself for nis position must give up the beat years of nis life to study and labor. But it seems our legislators, to whom we trust so much, need nothing of the sort, Halt of those whom you have sent time and again—{ make some honorable exceptions—to represent you in the Legistature have never read the Constitution of the United Staves, or that of the state of New York, and probably are not aware of its existence, And nv busivess nouse in New York, the meanest or poorest, would take thein as agents, ‘@nd with all their boldness, they themselves would never be guilty of such an absurdity, after tne traimtng they have received by listening to the speeches of the session, toapply even for a clerk- slp; and the very smallest item of theso things which you entrust to their care is the eacrmous wealth o: the Empire State.

By a kind of law of natural selection the strong iive through tbe contest and the weaker | fall; we have, therc.ore, two classes of men—the very best in the worid and the very worst in the world, The very best arc those who in THIS LIFE OF CONSTANT STRUGOLE have succeded in making a position for themselves, and ‘he very worst are those who, having been an. successful ti taeir attempt at an honest living, have thrown their viriues into ihe gutter aud betaken themseives to a life of adventure, and also that Maas of ignorance and crime which always hides iwel: in the aeus of a large city, because It can better ply its traae there.

The reverend Father said that ‘the | recklessness with which you select your Olliciais is the cause of the poverty of the people.

You pay one-nalf of your wegesa, and why isthut? Look lo the taxes? ‘nat is a small lem. You are opliged to buy the necessaries of Ite, and ine taxes entianee the rates of these, The waolesale dealer has to pay exorvitant taxes upon is house, store aod stables, and his customers mast bear the increased percentage arising from this addivion, The retail dealer is likely to lo the game, so that when the very necesat of life are bought by the poor man, he is paying a part of the taxes on & hunitred houses, although he doca not own an inch offreal estate. Nineveen-twenticths of the expenses of the government are paid by poor men. What should be our conclusion after these thongats? {tis this: You should be careful in the selection of those to whom you entrust so much. Not only on tue day of election should you be care- Tul, but you should give them to undersiand when selecting them as your empioy¢e and agents that you Will oversee their copduct.

Bishop Selwyn, of England, preached yesterday morning in this beanti(ul church, After the usual preliminary exercises, which, though lengthy, were renderea with aingularly impresstve effect, the Bishup changed his roves and ascended tho palpit. He took for his text Peter’s words to His Master:— “To whom else should we go, if motto Thea? Thou bast the words of eternal life.’ Having recalled to the minds of his hearers tho circumstances under which the passage he had quoted had been spoken, the Bishop discussed the special ground of Peter's bellef in His Lord and the general nature of the Christian's faith It was true that Peter was prepared, as wero also the entire Jewish people, for the coming of the Messiah; it was true that he had seen signs and heard words whicn eugat to have been suincient to convince sny rational being that the Chriss was D- deed the son of the living God, Yet there were many who had seen tuo same imiractes and had Its- tened to tne same words, and wuo mad nevertneless | tarned away unbelieving. ‘The seoret of Peter's | faith wasatnat it spruaz irom a perception of the | trata of Divino reve'auon, and oot from an iniel- | lectual acqut-acence in tue divinity of the Lord.

The lecture room of the Beekman Hill Methodist church was last evening Milled by the audience which had gathered to listen to @ Ber mon on “The Coming Election; te corrapt eMcials and what should be done witn | them."

CHURCH. Religion and Politicse—Scrmen by Kev. Fred. Evans. An unusually large congregation assembled in this church yesterday, evidently to hear the ais- course, which had been announced previously. The pastor took his text from Romans xtil., 1-8. Tho Christian religion, he observed, is the ieaven which must permeate every institution and government, A family devoid of the spirit of Christianity is deaa; and the State is only @ family on a iarger soale. Let the love of justice and truth reign in the hearts of those who lead the family, and the angels will love to linger around its members. So it 1s with any government. If founded on tho will of God, if it bas the welfare of the whole in view, it will Work worthy of one ordained by the Supreme, its leaders veing in sympathy with the divine will. History 18 not altogether the development of the divine plan, a3 some belicve. The rulers of the city of Babyton did some things which were far from being the development of the plan of Jehovah, aud the RULERS OF ANOTHER BABYLON have done things which seem to be the develop- ment of his Satanic majesty’s plan. As Christians We are governed by Jesus Christ; but as citizens we are governed vy Satan. If Curist couid say to Peter, “Get thee behind me, Satan,’ surely wo can uso the same expression against those who interiere with our rignts, who Llast the hopes of our city, who ruin the rising generation and pollute our moral atimos- phere. As Christians we have some mighty works to rform in connection with politics, The Churea, indeca, should not be marriea to the , State. She 1m too hol; for any one except Vnrisi; v she 1s to exert a poweriul influence on nations an governments unti she brings the world Loto a purer atmosphere. We have clalins upon the state wach are natural and simpie and arise trem necessity. They are summed up in the terms PROPERCY, LIBERTY AND LIFE. Our cities are thriving, and itis from them that the civilization of the land must ge forth. Tnere- fore the government of the city must be a true one. Offices of importance and positions of trust sould not be the stepping stones to the temple of wealth, but rather to that of houor. To own property by trampling on the liberties of others is mean in an ooscare citizen, but @ thousand times meaner tn ofticiats and rclers, Our govera- ment on the whole is @ grand ono; bat some of tts constituent parts are rotten to the core. Some of onr city rulers seem to find @ pretext for their deeds in the term iiber.y, but no ruler has the liberty to lo injustice or to abuse the priviieges ge. him in order to accomplisa selush purposes. ‘ere tt possibie for our rulers to muzzle the press and the pulpit miquity, corruption, knavery and theft would abound und destroy the true education of our pubiic schools, the spiritual tone of the churches and the position our city holds, Reiorma- tion follows in the train of liberty. Every POLITICAL REFORMATION needs a Luther or a Meiancthon. The press in our time has proved a Luther, and otaer powers have nobly rallied round it, A jo has thus been writien in our city’s history w shall exert & tromendous influence on its future rulers. For this we are indebted to brave men, and they are in- debted to liberty, Regardimg our right to exist- enoe—are not our lives here exposedto the mercy of the best part of it, The text was from Mark, viil., 36—“What shall ft profit manif he shall gain the whole world aud lose his own soul ‘This subject of PROFIT AND LORS inseresis more or less Our whole race—the African who disposes of his industry's fruits for shells, the Indian who barters his pearls for brass beads and the farmer of civilized life, Who exchanges nis stores for money in our markets. Tho law under. lying all human transactions bas ita illustrations in thts grand principle, The principle 18 that tae ac- quisition of any one good thing is accompanied by the 108s of some other good The far- mer applies hiyaself for years to the study of sotts and {a ming impiements to qualify himsett for his evocation: 80 does the lawyer sud the artist aad the merchaut, Each gains a vast amount of knowl- edge that is usefat in his paricular line of business, at the expense of nix Complete ignorance on & great variety of otuer supjects.

B, Frothingham on the Jewish and Christian Dream of Heanvow, and the Duty of Goed Men in Oar Present Municipal Crisis. . It having been understood that Mr. Frothingham Would speak on manicipal and election matters yesterday, a large congregation gathered in Lymo Hall, to whom he expounded his theory of the king- dom of heaven and its relation to our pres_nt crisis- His text was Mavthew, x1, 12, “The kingdom of heav- en suffereth violence and the violent take tt by force.” Toe kingdom of heaven, he said, is » dream—one Ol the sweetest and oldest of mankind. It was dreamed away in tee ages when history was not known. It was dreamed in Kgypt Jong ago by a name long since gone. It was dreamed in Greece; it was dreamed in Spain by Cairnac, in France by Fenelon, in Britain and Ireland by Harrison and Thomas Moore and others, and in our own iand by men burning with the same expecta- tuon and ardent feoling as animated the Jewisn dreamers, From age to age it has beea recoived in beauty, until when Jesus camo he found a body of people who entertained this dream in its purity, as ‘we find it in the New Testament. It was the dream of Jesus, too, and in a't His ministry it was ofvenest upon his lips. “The kingdom of heaven Is within you,” “The kingdom of heaven is at baud,’’ was his constant cry. It ts certain that we shall never un- derstand Jesus, His dream was one of A NEW SOCIAL STATS, though his followers entertained another kind of vision. They dreamed of a kingdom of heaven which was to be yonder—not here. This world, they said, Was about to close up, and all our interest in it must cease, because religiun was the oniy end, ‘{hero was to ve nO more marriages or births, no further accumuistions of pruperty or comforts of home. Society was to be gradually drawn in and a now Kingdom set up on the otner side, And they pat words in tho mouth of Jesus as if too, dreamed of a kivgdow of heaven in the future world, Idouvtit, said the proucner. The dream ‘wos always ia the same direction, The eiements ‘were always tue same. There were to be nv more ‘wars or confitets between parties; Do more iraad, de celt, hypocrisy. But there was also anotier con: ception of it. It was.to have grades and dignities and ranks—wnat the Churon wou.d call a nicrar- chy, Some thiags were to ve at the top and othors at the bottom; vome powers and capabilities were to have authority over others, Plato had @ similar concepiioa when he saul that society was composed or fiten peoplo—rute' iver peopie—wairiors, and brass peovle—toilers.

ST. STEPHEN'S ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH, Sermon by the Rev. Father Griffin—God’s Goodness to Men—Tho Trust to be Placcd to God—Morcy and Love. At St. Stephen’s church yesterday morning high mass was celebrated by the Rev. Father Lyach, the masa sung by the choir being Metnor’s, after the first Gospel the Rev, Father Grifin preached from Matthew ix., 15-18. After explainidg the meantog Of the text the preacher proceeded to show how great was the love of Ged for men, instancing the numerous examples in the eid law, as well ag in the new, ta which God manifested his desire for THE SALVATION OF HIS CREATURES. ‘Tne miracles performed by the Saviour during His Musion on earth were 80 many proots of infinite love aud meroy. God wished mon te rely upom Him, to irust tn Him, to ask Him for forgiveness, He did net want to have smners think that He was os merciful or that He was UNAPPROACUABLE BECAUSE OFFENDED, No doubt He was just and omnipotent, and hated #in so much that Ho’ PUNISHED THE CRIMES OF PARENTS even to tneir third generation.’ But siil! He was mer- ciful, and ever invited ali who mignt be in sin te Buvplicate fer pardon. Resting in His promiwes and paternal volicitude tor all Wis creatures, tie weary soul mizht, witn all the hope a ontld feels toward its parent, humbly ask for a restoration to God’s friendship. While, however, this great bond of love aad sympathy united the Creator and the Creature 1t should be well borne in mind that PRESUMPTION ON GOD'S GOODNESS was di rous, and hence the sinner’s supplication should founded as weil On & sense Of nis OWA unworthmess as on the great goodness of Goa. Many feared God too much; otners presumed too much on this love for taem; orners, again, were Without hope on account of tneir sins. The preacher then continued in eloquent words to speak to the hearts of tae congregation conceruing the va- co sin placed the soul, With UMPrecsad mpem ses shere Was no , Who read the ger: ae MM ae at the judgment Beat all Will be iui bare. Agaln recurring to God's, love and mercy ina beautiiul cxposition, combin- ing Gou’s mercy with the sinner'’s misiortunes, he spoce encourag.ngly, urging the use of sacraments as the best way to secure salvation.

Mr. Beecher preached yesterday morning to a crowded audience, finishing up nis sermon of last Sunday, from the same text—“Wutci and pray lest ye enter into temptation, for the spirit indeed ts willing, bat the flesh is weak.’ Hesaid men do not have instruction enough in regard to the, elements of a Uhristan Ufe that depend upon tne physical organization, Better views are dawning, and we hope that the battle of life will be more surely and easily fought, and that manhood willbe higher, richer and more sure.
