The Bibie Unitarianism accepts a8 an inspired book—a book written by Ten who were led by the Spirit of God. But the Spirit of God does not check or enslave the human reason. It expands and ennovles it, makes it more to see toe truth, more abie tosay it. Divine A4nspiration does not crush out reason, but vitalizes It 80 that it can see the truth more clearly aud en- Ureiy.

Unitarianism declares that retribu- on and probation are in both worlds; that there 1s @ foreiaste here of heaven and hell, and that there is there as nere progress, experience, discipline, educatiun, Orthodoxy has taught tnat we are to consider this world a vale of tears, and to wink only 01 the other, ‘This is a ruined world, where we are obliged to stay, but the sooner we leave 1¢ the happier we suall be.

Churches, NEW JERSEY CHURCHES, UVedication of a New Methodist Episcopal Church ie Hoboken, At the close of the evening service yesterday the edifice which has been in course of erection nearly three yeara in Washington street, between Seventh and Eighth streets, was consecrated to the service of the Lord by Rev.

Dr. Wakeley, a well-known Methodist c\ergyman, and Mr. William S, Hanmer and his son, Rev. Charles 0. Hanmer, when offensive language was adaressed to Dr. Wakeiey by the younger Hanmer, and endorsed by his father. Han- mer, Jr., having sometime since withdrawn from the Metnoaist Church, and having not yet attached himself to any other, the aggrieved clergyman was, of course, unable to commence ecclesiastical pro- ceedings against nim. Hanmer, Sr., however holds the office of steward in Trinity Methodist Episcopal church, Newburg, and Dr. Wakeley at once pre- ferred charges against mim for slander, The pastor of that church, Rev. William P. Abbott, appointed nine non-offictal members of the church court to try tne case, and fixed on the 28th iust. for the first hearing of testimony. The pre- vious differences between the parties, leading to tne use oj the opprobrious language, ‘seem wo have arisen from tue attempt of young Hanmer to jon wwe New York Conference of the Metuodist denomi- nation and the success{al opposition by Dr. Wakeley, who irapkiy told the Conlerence that the young man Was Lot possessed of tne qualifications for the exercise of the Christian ministry. But the irienus of the parties, fearing the scandal that would be brought upon the Church if the trial were allowed to go 00, Have made streauons efforts to effect a settiement oi the affair, Rev, A. A. Ferguson, of Saugerties, formerly presiding elder of tue district in Which Young Hanmer was temporarily employed in his status at that tiaie as “local preacher,” visited complainant and detendant, aud, seconded by otuer Trienus, at length succeeded in arranging the mat- ter gatisfuctorily.

Exhibition of the Stewart-Knoedler Collection at Leavitt Art Rooms. It must be peculiarly paintul to @ man who has spent a good many years of his life in bringing to- gether a collection of paintings to see them sud- deniy scattered under the hammer of the auctioneer. In the case of Mr, Svewart tne pai is, no doubt, deadened by his absence trom the scene, and per- haps by the growth of new affections. Attracted by the charms of Paris he has decided upon making that great centre of all that is brilliant and refined in human civilization his favure home, and those who have known how really enjoyable Ute is there wiil envy his iortuue rather than blame his resolution, Sooner than nsk the chance of damage to his pictures in bringing them to Paris Mr. Stewart resoived to dispose of them. This sale will give au opportunity to picture buyers to obtain quite # numoer of excellent cabiuet pictures, Though there are some pictures of large value the collection is principaily made up of works which are within the reach of bayers who are moderately rich. It would be diMcult to find a number of painungs more adapted to the requirements of a sale, for almost every taste will be able to fina some subject pleasing to it. In- deed the only fauit that we are inclined to charge against the collection ts the small REPRESENTATION OF NATIVE ART. There are a few pictures of our own school scat- tered on the walls but to find thac they might easily be passed over without nouce, In one in- stance especially this would be unpardonable, Un- der tne unpretending utile of “Spring Foliage” (75"), we have one of the most charming and truch- ful sudies of nature we have ever seen, THE ELALORATION OF THR LEAVES and wild field flowers is perfectly wondrous. The art- ist has carriea imitation as lar as it fs possible—fur- ther, indeed, thun mt would be desiraple, except on Tare oceasions—as a proof oi the power and feeling which aided and directed him, Nor is this charm Ing little picture @ soulless copy. Within it we see the evidences of @ power of artistic composition Which 18, indeed, rare, None but a close siudent of nature, who was also a dexterous technical work- man of a high order, Would have painted this litle gem, which to us 1s worth a whole exhibition of the careless landscapes we too often see after our native arusts. This “Spring Foliage’’ ought to bring @ high price, and we hope the art patrons will mark their appreciation of home merit by displaying @ generous rivalry for its possession, if only to teach our artista that if they put work and knowledge into their paintings, the public will treat them as highly as tney do foreign artists of reputation. Among the foreign landscapes two small subjects come to our mind, differing widely in manner of treatment bat both possessing merits of a very high order. Noei’s “souvenir de Dieppe” gives us a very miserable but very picturesque cabin in the fore- ground, with some verdure, and io ihe distance the old tower rises f:0m the sands, CLOTHED IN MYS(ERIOUS GRAYS. It 18 excellent in drawing and composition, and strong in color, which 1s voldiy anu decisively laid on. Diaz’s “Fontainebleau” 13 quite the opposite of Noel’s charming realistic litle work. ‘Fontaine. bleau” is treated in the classic manner. ‘Ihe fore- ground ts in aeep shadow, ald the high lignt of the picture 13 seen through @ vista in the dark trees which overhang a bit of water on which tne light falis geutly. This effect has been delightfully treated, the painting of the water ing forceful and masterly in the extreme. In addition to the techuical excellence of the work it 1s 1ull of myste- rious power and suggestiveness. It is impossible 10 look at it without falling into areverie. Of course 4t will speak in dierent tongues to ditferent people, but the man who can stand be.ore it without having something suggested to him by ihese gloomy shadows must have very little power of thought or reflection. It is probabie the mass of people wont like tnis now gen d because itis too strong and says too much. ‘ney Wout understand it, but We cannot nelp that Iv is the unpleasant DUTY OF THB ORITIO to tell people what they ought to like, and this little picture deserves attention, Quite ta a different genre, Killang’s miniature picture of *Solterino” (82) turns our ihoughts to “the pomp and circum. stance of glorious war.” To say that the work Detore us 18 an adequate representation of the radeur and sublimity of the terriilc struggle at olferiao would be to display @ total ignorance of the sutject, but without going 80 lar we will say that it 1s an ad miravie rendering of an incident which occurred pretty olten during tuat hard contested fight. A mounted officer 1s quietiy watching tue pro- gress ol tne conflict, while wo his left a company of Voltgeurs are retreating au pas gyinnast que, In the foreground lies a dead soldier. He has been kallea (the artist has not leftus m doubt of that fact. On the leit we see a Jew wounded men, jeit behind in the advance. ‘The groupings are admira- bile, and the action of the figures VIGOROUS AND NATURAL. There 1s not a bit of exaggeration, and those who have seen troops in action must have often beheld just such incidents. ‘fhe Landlord’s Portrait,” by Brillouin, is anower miniature gem. It belongs ww the Melssonier school, and has all its excellent drawing and bril- Nant coir, The expressious on the faces of the group of soldiers who are watching the progress of the work which o young itinerant artist nas taken seriously in hand are capitatly rendered. ‘Tne whole composiiion is marked by @ keen sense of humor aud unusual power of grouping. The figures are weil and freely drawn. Fiorent Wiliems and Victor Van Hore are represented by a composite work painted with great vkill. There 1s not much story, but in the texture, treatment and the manage- ment of light tne execution 13 deligniful, “THE UNFORTUNATES,?? by Ritter, is an excellent genre subject in low hife. It is tull of droliery and of the poetry of poverty, which we can best admire when we don’t happen to feel ti. This painting has many warm admirers. But we ave warned that we must pass over many other gems of ar by pressure on our space, and will just liager long enough to say afew words avout a 4 Jew important pictures, which are grouped together in the catalogue:—Leroux’s “Ufering to the Gods” is a@ really reireshing work. It classic in snbdject ana im treatment. ‘This artist has gone back in spirit to the Roman period and painted real women of flesh anu blood, ‘fis draw- ing is marked by refinement. Inthe flesn color he has introduced s0 much of that olive tinge we oiten meet in Italian Women that it strikes us at first as being false; but the harmony is well preserved, broken in the drapery by the introduction of a very ea blue garment. which it would have -been betver to have leit out, Beyscliag has @ great deal of POETIO FEELING, and colors well. He is represented by a now sub- ject, which displays more than usual wer and care. “Grandmother's Birthday” is deligattully painted, well composed, and tells a simple and affecting story. The study of the child bearing the flowers could only have been paimted by a real artist, who had both technicai knowledge and much observation, as well as Gi np with childhood, Perrault’s “Mother and Child” is another worthy work, full of retinement and strength, It is well drawn and remarkably rich In color. There 1s about it that poetic realism which ts the very highest quality of modern work. Couture’s wonderiul little work, the -‘becadence of the Roman Empire,” has already been the suvject of a long notice in these columns, and we have only agaia to express our admiration of the strength and unity of its composition, correctness of drawing and richness of color. 1t is @ precious gem. With regret we notice there are many notabie works of great artistic value that we have lover Without notice, but we nore we have said enough to induce any one interested in art to visit the collection and see for himself.

Abram Bea!, Abram Beal, for eighteen years past agent of the New York Prison Association, died on Sunday morning, February 26, aged sixty-eight years. His whole life, from youth up, was devoted to useful, self-denying, but unpopular works of benevolence, He was born in Chatham, Kent, England, and all the early records of his life associate nim with Sun- day scnools, ragged schools, prison reform, and a universal sympathy with the weak and fallen, At eighteen years of age he interested himself for prisoners, and walked thiriy-iaree miles from his gome to the couuty town to d id and ob- tain the release of ® young man on trial for crime, When he came to America he naturally and instinctively gravitated to the Prison Association, and were he has tound the myssion of his life, It is admitted that no singie individual accomplished so much in restoring back to society and usetuiness the wayward, ule weak and fallen as bas Mr, Beal; and in his daily walks among all tue city and country prisons he found ns bach ined with every phase of human sorrow, and nis broad, sympathizing spirit went out to them al Often was hit lum for the chai and bis entire ite since he came here has veen de- voted Lo practical and scif-sacrificing charities, In tue intervals of delirium a few moments before h death his sister heard him distinctly poor prisoner with tiese works:—‘I ama dying man; J can do no more for you now, my iriend; you must go to the Governor yourseif und plead for your own pardoa.’’ Mr. Beal was a Methoulst by pecenasion, ont was an active member of Mr. rher’s church, from which his remains will be buried.
