The New Pastor of the Broadway Taber- macte and Successor of Or. Thompson—An Old-Fashioned Sermon on the Gospel of the Grace of God. The Rey. W. W. Taylor commenced yesterday morning his ministry at the Broadway Tabernacle. It wil probably be remembered that Mr. Taylor at- tracted considerable attention among the churches last summer when on a visit from England to America, He occupied the pulpit for several Sun- ‘ays Of the Church of the Pilgrims, Brooklyn. He preached afterward iu several of the Congrega- ional churches of the city, and there arose, | Bpontaneously as it were, a desire among i tho religious community of both cities that he Bhould abide with us and be adopted into tho large Jamily of American preachers. Mr, Taylor retarued to als nome and chureh 1n Liverpool, England, and | when Dr. Thompson resigned nis charge of tho | Broadway Tabernacie and went to Europe he suc- | ceeded in arranging that Mr, Taylor snould become | his successor. | | MODERN CIVILIZATION | | .

The service was signalized by the admission of two young ladies into the membership of the Church, and, after the singing of the Doxology and the pronouncing of the benediction, the com- munion service was held, at which a large number of communicants attended, A Defence of Christianity—Sermom by Rev. Eli Fay, of Newton, Mass. There was a very siim attendance at the services | yesterday morniug at the Church of the Messiah, corner of Park avenue and Thirty-fougth street—a | result of course, doubtiess, to be attributed to the aopleasantly unpropitious combination of pouring | rain and slippery walks. However, those who were present had the gratification of listening to an ex- cellent sermon from Kev. Ell Fay, of Newton, Mass, Ifnotof that highly polished order of clergymen iving such reputation to the ministerial leaders of this church, he is oertainly a Man of aceming thorough earnestness, and tt the Gnest graces of pulpit oratory were wanting there waa no lack of vigor and force of utterance. ‘Tao sermon was a continuation of the series of Sun day discourses by eminent Unitarian clergymen on the tenets of their fatth, His text was Romans, t., 16:—“I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Ohrist.’” From the beginning the Jows had only one form of worship. They were much attached to it. In Jeru- salom there was extended culture. Their temple was a splendid work of art The Jews have one Church, The nation was the Church—a feature the Moras at Salt Lake have sought to imitate. In vazure' ONE JESUS appeared. The people turned aside to listen to the eccentric but despised Nazarine, Paul was among | these, Becoming a Christian he was forced to be- come an exile, He went to Rome—proud, imperial Rome, Under the shadow of the forum he started a Church in the name of his Lord and Master. He ais. not regret the cost of his ainctpleai-sthe loss of prospective honors and a life of ease ana luxury. Portraying at cloquent length tho Christian virtucs of Paul, he proceeded to show the difference between true moral courage and rashness. Pau said he was not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ. In this utterance was sub- limated moral courage. Faith in the divinity of humanity and immortality furnishes a stimulus to higher endeavor that otherwise would not exist. We itve and labor by faith, Destroy faith and it would destroy all our HIGHER ACTIVITIRS. He tilustrated this at length, some of the filustra- tions, parttewarly those drawn from the scenes of the late war, being as deeply touching as they were eloquent and pertinent, Faith, he snowed, was a matterof infinite moment, It was worth more than any positive knowledge. Ali the mysteries of the universe concerned them, but not as this matter of faith, The necessities and destiny of this TOILING ONWARD MYSTERY to call ourselves concerned them above all else. | He turned to the New Testament and there learned that there was one God, who was in all, for all, Uhrough all, Ho learned there of the Christ He learned there the teachings of this Christ, And what teachings they were ! He taught us to call God our Father; that He was the Son of God; that we might all be sons of God, He came as the Son and sent of God to give (igs aud life to the world. On the foundation stone of our 4 ~ is engravod the name of Jesus. We are not ashamed of it—ashamed of the character of the God it reveals; ashamed of the Nght it throws tnto the grave and beside which there ts no light; ashamed ot the ever-extending future which it opens in grand prospective. All the circumstances attend. aut upon the introduction of the Gospel are entirely consistent With its sublime character and purpose, Doctrines and promises, assurances and assump. tions so remarkable as those of Christ, and which were to be received on simple faith, because as they referred to matters which lie beyond the utmost boundaries of human knowle they were unsus- ceptible of demonstration, would havo arrested no attention if they had fallen from the lips of a man simply as his individual opinions and in- | tentions. On the contrary, they would have justly exposed him to the oharge of fanaticism or insanity and the matter would have dropped there. | ‘fbe newly chosen minister preached his drat ser- mons as the Broadway Tabernacle pastor yesterday. ‘rhough the morning was very dull and chit with | early showers, and though the cold, cheer- | JesS8 and constant rain sturm poured pitilessiy on all ouurch-goers, the Tabernacio was filled with @ congre; Auon In Which the feminine eiement | Was mataly conspicuous by tis absence.

When Mr, ‘taylor | commenced M18 sermon proper he spoke with a | Sootch burr, but, what was far better, With a Scotch | earnestness. it was a sermon built upon | the old-fashioned models, texttal through out, with an introduction about the text, the reguiation three divisions, and tuen three | bub-divisions from each of these. But, though this J 8 Le form and the skeleton, tt was clothed with h a warm-breathing, buman life, and with 30 ine a@ fervor, that the skeleton seemed tmper. ceplible to the enraptured audience, who found Mhemselves beguiled into listening with the in- tensest mterest to a sermon that was doctrinal from the first sentence to the Jast, There were none of the modern tricks of pulpit eloquence; no mimt- cry; ho piace for the joke to come in; Ho sensational bentence that brought down the house with a sinile aud # Utter that was smothered by the proprieties | and decorum of the sacred place. There was no | auwateur searching for trath, no toying anu coquet- Ung with it, but a plain talk about God, salvation, TIME, ETERNITY and the haman soul. Jn speaking of tho presenta- tion of the Gospel on the part of the preacher, he Adinitted that it Was an oid story; and tt was a very Bimple story, too; but the presentation of it was Pver new—just as the kaleidoscope is both old and | new.

STEPHEN'S ROWAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. Sermon by the Rev. Dr. McGlyon—The Mira- cle of the Loaves and Fishes~Holy Com- munion—Preparation fer Kaster—Human Judges of Mon’s Souls. Though the weather was so wretchediy bad yes- usual with a large congregation. The music of the mass was rendered by the officient choir with cus- tomary ability, the singing at the vespers being especially fine. High mass was celebratea by the Rev. J. J. Boyle, & young clergyman just ordained, and who now, after 4 most distinguished collegiate course, has been honored with a professorship in the Eccler slastical Seminary of Philadelphia. After the first gospel the Rev. Dr. McGiynn preached from the gospel of the day, in which is related the miracle of the loaves and fishes:—The miracle of the joaves and fishes is the type of the blessed Sacrament, The Gospel speaks of both in the sixth chapter of St. John, and in time and place they aro closed together. The miracle occurred abont a year before the Saviour’s death, when He, with His disciples, went apart for rest from the city, The disciples had returned after preacbing in the provinces and needed quiet after thelr labors, But the multitude must nave heard that Ohrist had crossed over to the opposite coast from the city, and they flocked around Him tn Jarge numbers, being in all about five thousand men. ‘fo feed these, lest “they night faint by the way,” the Saviour performed the miracle, To these same people also, in a short time alterward, He promised the Sacrament of the Kucharist. It was not by the display He made ia performing miracles that the people were atira ed. to Him, It was because they had seen that He was doing miraculous deeds for the diseased; that He was compassionate to the sick man; that He was doing these things because His heart was touched. This was one of the tests of | His divinity. He tola ua to “leara of Him, because | He was meek and humble of heart.’ ‘The example of His life in this regard should not be lest signt of. If we are Christians, then we must iearn to follow in the footsteps of the Master. We must conquer ourselves. We must be meek, charitable, bumble, when nature would prompt us be the reverse, We must forgive the Blanderer aad the liar, as well as avoid the vanity it might cause to expose thelr fatilogs. God alone must punish, and He alone can read men’s souls, This conquering of ourselves 1s a miracle—a reat miracle—and wins men to God. ‘The maulti- Gospel, followed Him because He was “meek and jumble of heart’? The charity which man prac- tises towards his fellow man is light {rom another juman heart, but it is also light reflected from the eart of an Incarnate God. This miracle of the loaves and fishes was in some respects the greatest of all His miracles. 1t was periormed belore the largest number of persons, and it 1s plainly the type of the Holy Commuaion, When the mut- Utudes had eaten they cried aloud that that was indeed the promised prophet, and the Saviour had to retire to a distance lest they might insiat upon hailing Him as King and treating Him with kingly honors. But in this miracle we may learn how that other muracie of the Eucnarist was given to us, and may understand His invitations to us to be fed. The loaves and fishes were given to the Israelites lest on their returning to their homes they ‘might aint by the way.”’ And, during all the ages since the institution of the blessed Sacra- ment, the Saviour’s love has continued to feed the fainting souls of iaithiul Christians with that other Tood Which is His body ee blood, and He will do | so to the end of ime. From the works left us by the holy Fathers and the opinions of great theolo- glans Lam persuaded tnat the varly Church tucul- aled ie receiving uf tue Diessed Sacrament every ; day. We must remember that we should not walt to be perfect before receiving Holy Communion. Were | We to do so we should never receive It. The blessed Sacrament was instituted to help us to greater love of God, to greater charity, to closer ties with our Saviour. It was given tous to make us better, to draw us nearer to God, to make us feel more con- stantly our dependence on Him, and, by tae bond ot love which constant union with tilin would form, to sustain una protect us and bring down upon us more abundant graces from heaven. The reverend preacher thea weit on to 4 about the necessity of preparmg for the Baster communion, and advised his hearers especially to practise charity. Fathers of families should learn from the gospel o! the day to help sick men and lead them by their own example of Christian virtues to wo are so far irom being ashamed of the Gospel, that we gratefu'ly accept it as a lamp to our Teet and a light to our path, the foundation of our faith and hope, our soul’s unfailing support, CHURCH OF THE DISCIPLES, Natural Afllection—Sermon by the Rev. B. W. Martin, D. D. Tn consequence of the inclemency of the weather the attendance of devotees at the Church of the | Disctples, in Steinway Hall, was unusually small; i but those who faced the storm were repaid by hear- ing an eloquent and earnest discourse from the lips of the Rev. B. W. Martin. The learned divine took his text from the thirty- frst verse of the first epistie of St. Paul to the Romans—“Without natural affection”—and com- menced by stating that the Apostle Paui had, tn his day, to lament that the people were without natural adection, iu that corrupt and mercenary fondneases were destroying and eradicating it He would speak with regard to religious affec- tion, First came conscience—that wondrous hidden power thas can ‘“inake cowards of PEACE AND PURITY Yet with the majority of men how low and this ts the them.

Eagerly as (he Saviour invited us to partake of His sacred vody ald blood, it should be remembered that He Himself, appear- ing, as 1t were, like aslighted lover, told us that there was vet a terrible condemnation for those who had hegiécted to prepare properly for the sacred feast, The reverend doctor concluded with some forcible remarks concerning those people who, as it were, put themselves in the judgment seat of God and presumed to read the most secret thoughts of men; to pronounce upon the exact limit for light which the Almighty had given to many of His creatures, and then to judge whether or not the Almighty shoula or shuuld not act otherwise toward these, His creatures, than as the feeble minds of these poor human judges would direct. God alone was Judge; God alone could read the heart and ander- stand the aspirations of His creatures’ souls, THE DOMINICANS NEW CHURCH. Opening of the Church of St. Vincent Fer: rev—Vather Burke’s Sermons, In the formation of the world’s history tt has be- come axiomatic that the march of civilization and the spread of the religion of tne true God have ever been characterized by a corresponding cuitivation Of art in t's various branches, Hence it was that those periods which were brightest In the exis- tence of the Church were marked by a proticiency in painting, sculpture, music, &c., such as has not been attained in more recent times. Although the converse of this axiom is not necessarily true, still it remains undoubted that art is a choice handmaid Of religion, as the efforts of all religionists tu iden- tify them amply testify. Not least among those who have won many hearts to the fold, by appeal- ing to them through the medium of art, are the fathers of the ORDER OF ST. DOMINIO, The charch they have just completed, at the cor- ner of Lexington avenue and Sixty-sixth street, may challenge the admiration of all who venture within its walls. It was commenced over four years go, and alter two years Was so far advanced that the dedication took place. Since that time the pas- tor, Rev. Father Lilly, procured the services of Messrs. Lang & Kinkelen, of Muniob, to execute ten fresco paintings on the walls of the interior, Tu1s alone cost $4,500, and painting and decora- tions were carried on at a further expense of $12,000, The entire cost of the edifice foo up $150,000. The basement wails are of stone—the upper ones Of brick; but the front is to be cased with brown stone, it ts 175 feet long by 75 in width, the main entrance being through the front on Lex- ington avenue.

And while be told them at the be- ginning they had need of patience, he cheered them by saying that not only those who aro aiming at the lowest ideals were saddened by failure, bus also those who are aiming at the highest. Were they not they would be careless and stolid, Some men of tron will, nerves of steel and the dl- gestion of an ox are never discouraged. In tempo- ral and spiritual matters they have a sort of courage not of the highest Kind, but of unfalling power. Otnera have been born melancholy, Nothing can rouse them from it, Christians are, as @ mass, struggling men, and as such the apostle spoke vo them, bidding them have patience, ‘The reverend gentieman said he had a few things to say to them Which migit inake them bear their burdens more patiently. You commenced the Christian life with @ mistaken idea of tt, You hoped to go straight through to HEAVEN'S PORTALS, ‘The gushing gladness of young converts changes. They chafe at steady toll, So tnruling were their first experiences tnat thelr thoughts of confiict were thoughts of victory, never of defeat, Religion was to pass you along life’s way as smoothly as the Ve- netlan gondola glides, or as tho Nght, airy pleasure boats of Central Park. Finding yourself in a life- boat on a stormy sea, and having to puli both oars Of faith lusty or arive on the rocks, you have need of patience. It encourages you that there is not so much StIR IN THE CHURCH about you as before you became a convert, now seem to say, “‘Shilt for yourself." And this you have found not so eusy. Alter illustrating this at eloquent length he urged that the great end of the Gospel is to make sell-sustaining men. Many are discouraged because they are not happier in the Christian ilfe, it mast be remembered that rain, a8 well as the sub, makes the harvest, and the clouds are as important as the sunshine, So pain 18 healthy for the soul.

FIFTH AVENUE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, Anniversary of tho Young Men’s Social and i ! } i ; 1s here propounded by the Son of God, Benevolent Seciety—Interesting Scrvices— Sermon by tho Kev. Dr. Adams on “True Greatness.” The Fifth avenue Presbyterian church last even- ing, On the occasion of the anniversary of a social and benevolent soctety rormed of the young men of the congregation, was quite well filed. Tne old «and young were there, and espe. cially were there present a great many young men and women. in the pulpit sat three venerable pastors, whose heads are streaked witn hair of a silvery hue—the Kev, Dr. Adams, Dr. Hall and Dr, Alexandor—and whose labors are well known to the pious folk of the Scottish kirk in New York, Atthe opentng of the services Dr. Hail an- nounced @ hymn, which was sung by the audience, Dr. Alexander then delivered an impressive prayer, and read from the Scriptures the twentieth chapter of St. Matthew. Another hymn followed to the beau- tfal tune of ‘Harwich.’ The Rev. Dr. Adams then began nis sermon, taking for the subject St, Mat- thew, xx., 26 and 27—‘‘But it shail not be so among you: but Wuosoever wiil be great among you, let him be your minister; and whosoever wili be chief among you, let nim be your servant.’’ He said, A NEW ROLE OF LIFR That which immediately followed this declaration proves how confused were the notions of the disciples of our Lord regarding His fature intentions. It was not strange that some ideas of personal ambition should mingle with thelr thoughts, and that there should be swimming, as it were, in their mind golden visions of What would be their lot when He the King of Heaven should come to His own. In such a case we can readily excuse in @ mother’s heart the feeling which gave rise to her request that her two sons should sit with the Saviour in Hils glory, the one on the right hana and the other on the left ‘They were a away by mistaken conceptions of Ohrist’s royal promotions. In His answer to this request ‘to sit with His Imperial Majesty. He does not infer that there will be no royal promotion or no degrees of promotion. He shows that they have not a true idea of that by which such promotion. may be ob- tained. Not knowing the full bitterness of the cup He was to drink they an- swered they were able to endure what as to endure—the _fellow- ship of suffering by which they shoula alone enter the kingdom—the constituted reward of true greatness. The occasion had come when Vur Lord should propose His especial doctrine In regard to greatuess. It had fora long ume before been esteemed a3 authority, power, oMice.

Street Presbyterian church was rendered very small by the inclement mood of nature out of doors. Tne humid clouds, descending, Gently wept in rainy tears. And they made umbrellas the great necessity of the day. The Rev. David Mitchell, however, preached with great earnestness and spirit a sermon en- titted “A PRISONER WITHOUL COUNSEL," founded on the sixteenth verse of the fourth ohap- ter of Paul’s Second Epistle to Timothy—“No mao stood with me.’ ‘The Apostle in this tender and beautiful passage, said the preacher, has reference to his last trial at Rome. There was little prospect of obtaining jus- Uce at such atribunal. He writes, as if fearing lest the murderous intentions of his enemies should be carried out before he could see and em- brace nis beloved gon, ‘I am now ready to be offered.” Paul then had been regularly brought up for trial, Imagine uhe scene. ; There is reason to.believe that on the trial of such 9 distinguished Christian as Paul the court room would be crowded with eager spectators, At lengtn the prisoner appears, an aged, white-haired droop- ing man, but with a heavenly light in his eye, and marked by an undaunted yet reverential bearing. He 1s without attendant, without iriends or coun- sellors. ALONE BRFORE THE TRIBUNAL he came; for he says, ‘No’ man stoou with me.” ‘This certainly may mean that he stood alone, with- out any friends; but it also means that he was with- out counsel. He had no one to plead his cause, This text, then, suggests the inability of the Apostie to pay for counsel. An advocate ts appointed vir- tually to plead tor the poor and ignorant, who can- not «io justica to their.own Claims; but in times of desradation the counsel makes money his one con- aition of taking a case, CORRUPTION AND BRIBERY held sway during Nero’s reign, and a man lke Paul must plead his cause alone. Secondly, the text suggests the danger to a coun- sellor who stould undertake Paul’s detence, To identify one’s Self with the Apostle under trial w: to ald and abet the religion of Jesus Christ and ‘6 incur the danger of persecution. Thirdly, the text shows the Apostie defending Dimself in A SENSE OF INNOCENCE of the charges made against nim. Yet be pleads “guilty,” for the accusation is in substance that of preaching Christ, of whom ne was a follower ana a believer. From his bar as {rom a pulpit he preaches salvation before his judges and prosecutors, AN EXAMPLE FOR ALL THE WORLD, In conclusion the preacher cited this fearless for- titude as an example for all the world, and said that the text pointed to the one advocate of Christians, Jesus Christ, the righteous, To nim we should look under all our trials, and at length for justification at the bar of Heaven.

Despite the inclemency of the weather there was a very large Congregation assembled at the humbie litle edifice Known as St, sStephen’s church, om Carroll street, near Hicks, at the principal service yesterday. Rev. Father Doran preached, taking fom { | his text the Gospel of St. Jon, wherein is recounted the miracle of the feeding of five thousana persons by COhriat with five barley loaves and twofishes, From this text une speaker called to the mind of his hear- ers tne fact that our Divine Lord kad demonstrated of ‘His compassion for the temporal wants of Bis follow. ers, When they had tasted for three days, while list- ening to His exhortations in the wilderness, and the wants of nature demanded attention, He fee@ | them thus miraculously.

Dee Chapman. Tho pastor of the Bedford avenue Methodist Epi copal church, Rev. Dr. Chapman, preached yester- day morning from Matthew, vit., 20—“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them,” In his introdue tory remarks the preacher dwelt upon the fact thas all things animate and inanimate yielded fruit, an@ that nothing existed without a purpose. No woman or child had ever lived without having to = greater or less extent contributed to the aggregate of the world’s advancement and possession. The speaker enumerated the various callings followed by med who yielded frutt in their respective spheres. Wa might not be able to analyze the vast aggregate of work and trace each element to its author, but the leaders stood out in the world’s history and some of their fruits survived them. Ohristopher Wren lived in St. Paul’s, Raphael in his Mad Shakspeare in bis immortal dramas, Bacon in “Novam Organum,” Newton in his “Principia,” Luther in emancipated Germany, Weasley in the Methodist Church, and Ohrist in Christian ofviliza- tion, literature and religion, that is at once the wealth and the hope of the world. Fruits were the test of the practicality of religion. Theorizers abounded In every community, In the financta® world their baseless projects were the pests of all business men and the ruin of not afew; in the political world they kept that cauldron for- ever boiling with thetr impracticable methods; and io the Church they were for ever speculating about the heavens aud the earth, A prudent man would not accept a new invention or discovery from its strucvure or finish, but would subject it to experiment. God had acted upon that principle In giving the world Ohrist f= He had not only clearly and plainly revealea theory in doctrine and im ethics, but he reduced 18 to practice in the Character and life of His Son—tae world’s model. And inthe propagation of Ohrise tianitly God designed that theory and He wg should go nand in hand. He who went out among the benighted heathen and preached that the Gos- pel was an illumination was to prove it by showing that it tlumined Him; He who proclaimed to Sensual and the imbruted a Gospel that ena‘ man to triumph over His appetites and carnal na- ture was tO prove its truth by m His own appetites conform to the dict of His moral being, and He who preached a Gospel that ‘could cleanse from sim must prove that assertion by the purity of his owm character and life, Fruits were the tests of cl acter. It might be that a botanist might tell by the structure of te tree or by the texture of leaf flower its kind, but the frutts were the practi test by which the people judge of It.
