A few yoars ago thero arose a man in Ireland by the name of Thomas F. Burke, a monk of the Doiini- can order, who attracted some local fame as a preacher. He has, from the first, been under the especial patronage of Cardinal Cullen, and for the last few years, in the Dublin diocese, has preached on all im t public occasions. But he was, how- pron ank wo here unjil he came. But now his naffie and fame are on every tongue. And if he would be called the Ccipaerd preacher in the Eng- lish language, it would be no more tban just praise. Here @ man, dug out, as it were, of the bowels of the thirteenth gongary ip nastio garb; here comes @ man in this 4ge phy, [ioe ‘ip pe steam; here 20 34 under! of yworldiings in age the Sushile fenton a the Gospel, in all the severity of dogmas and more, with all the earnest unction and enthusiasm of Ventura, clothed in the golden rhetoric of Edmund Burke. Standing in his ecclesiastical dress, the picture of holy, sacerdotal vocation, the living evidence of the faith that he teaches—of untiring industry in teaching and preaching and an uncompromising enemy of the licentious spirit of the it can then surely be said that in the evangelist Is lost the man. In the year 1847—twenty-five years ago— there came to Brooklyn, from Indiana, a young Breneretian clergyman, to. take charge of Ply- mouth church there. The church was Congrega- tional; but a suitable compromise was made. ‘This man was Henry Ward Beecher, then little more than thirty years old. He was from the first a man of talent and ability, and soon, therefore, began to attract attention outside of his congregation. He took up the slavery question, and for more than a @zen years rong. the changes on that subject. Now, for the last twenty years Henry Ward Beecher has been before the American people as a preacher of the Gospel, and his name 1s a household word in half of the homes in this country to-day. But the qnestion comes up: Is it notoricty or reputation? ‘i Pane Ward Beecher live in history? He is said to be eloquent in Plymouth church, but his published discourses are, for the most part disjointed, mechanical and nonsensical, deficient in either sustained manly argument or eloquence; and his sermons conta about @ grain of wheat ina bushel of chaff. His eloquence {8 spasmodic and rhaj ical— no sus- tained lofty appeals—no full flowing, rounded periods—but mechanical small talk, conversational glib, which can have no abiding hold in the minds of intellectual men. He has, however, humor and fun, and says attractive and even original things, but there is no backbone in utter- ances; his preaching is buncombe sentiment and maudlin slop; he caters to the social corrup- tion of the day, and only a debauched and a dement- ed age could stoop to notice such a man. About the year 1856, a young man Sppeares in London as a preacher, by the name of Charles H. Spurgeon, He had no education, he had no eloquence of language, but he developed vehemence, theatrical style and acertain air of roughshod earnestness which began soon to claim the attention of middle- class John Bull, From the first Spurgeon developed the character of the religious clown. Buffoonery, until his day, was excluded from the pulpit. If he could not preach the gospel, he could act it off. And this ts his forte, He is, however, a more sincerely be- lleving Christian than Beecher, his preaching being subjective, but he has no true eloquence to live in the mind of the world. He is at times coarse, vulgar and even blas- phemous, and the robust thought of the eighteenth century would hoot sucka man down in derision and laughter. Hoe is, however, quaint, and makes suitable comparisons and puts old things in a new light, and possesses that mage and ready, demo- cratio, familiarity, style of talk that catches the aK Pentecostal EA inary SUNDAY, JUNE 9, 1872—TRIPLE SHEET\ |, unrestral: to ta tates wa” er} eran Spuy says, nF, Ohi like tonder gsigrs, tako the bow, nde e! ‘frat are fashioned, eae aren, So his mind has grown on that conflicting point. Silence of the Christian Pulpits on the @ewish Perseoutions in Roumania—Ser- mon by the Rev. Dr. Gutheim. In a few days one of the three great festivals of the Jewish vhurch will be celebrated th: the world. The Feast of Tanase Reval which has no parallel even in Jewish history—will be commenced on Wednesday next. It ig the an- niversary of the revelation from Sinai, when Israel was appointed the standard bearer of Divine truth to mankind—‘“Hear, O Israel; this day art thou be. come & people to the Lord thy God.” This, then, was the theme which Dr, Gutheim would bring before the minds of his hearers, The event which this festival is designed to commemorate constitutes the most important era not history, also. It has exercised the most salutary influence on the progress of mankind. human race extends the moral law which was given on Sinai is in some sense known, and in all clvilized countries it is the basis upon which all contracts are made. Horeb sends its lustre over all lands and in per- petually increasing brilliancy. The descendants of those who, thousands of years ago, assembled at the base of Sinai to hear the law proclaimed com- memorate that event, with every recurring period, with feelings of reverence and gratitude. And Israel celebrates only in Jewish but the human race in that of For as far as the The light which illuminated THR TRIUMPH OF TRUTH over falsehood, of justice over wrong, of love over hatred, She steps before the nations of the world bearing aloft that banner on which is inscribed, “Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.” truths that were to save mankind. And hence the words uttered by God to Moses, and by him to Israel. are fall of meaning :—‘‘ Ye shall be a king- dom of priests unto me; Israel was the chosen custodian of the holy nation.” The changes which have taken place on the earth since those words were uttered must appear to every reflecting mind stupendous.

Gitpeer Davis, of the Reformed Church of the United States was introduced to the Synod and read a paper containing a history of the Hei Catechism. He alluded to the talked of union be- tween the two Reformed Churches, and safd thas the Ohio Synod had taken steps to have a union of all the synods. This action, however, had nos come before the Synod of which he was a member, but they looked for candor from all the synods. ‘While this matter of organic union was discuaded im his Synod they were blamed for demanding a thor- ough organic organization in all the synods, im Which all would have one faith. It was the opiniom of his Synod that the mere fusion of synods, eack having a different idea of a thorough organic unton, Would not accomplish the object aimed at. Mr. Davis suid that it was the glory of the Reformed Church that they had the general truths of Chriatl- anity, but none of them would claim that it individ- ually held all and the whole truth of Christianity, and he was satisfled that the Church which he re- presented would never claim such a thing. The greatest difficulty at present which the Charoly experienced was the difference of opinion, and ifany member could show some method by which these dif. ferences could be healed, and a solid fusion made of faith, the Church which he represented would be the first to sing a “Te Deum” in his honor. The Heidel. berg Catechism, in which his Church belleved, waa @ full exposition of all the doctrines of Christianity, and broad enough to be embraeed by all Christians. The work of Cnrist was the first thing to be done. The record of the Bible was that God had given us eternal hope, and this came through His Son. se that a knowledge of Jesus Ohrist, and in Him was the life. In the Church of Christ we had a@ new order of things, and there was their standing it, President Elmendorf delivered an address of wel- come, and congratulated Mr. Davis i rg: the He also discussed the differences in the doctrines of the Reformed Church of America and the Reformed Church of the United States, advocated the hturgi- eat prantiog of Ris Orn icnnnes and calneg fae e sties’ creed was broad eno und all tho Churches. pesiis PERSONAL. At the conclusion of the President's remarks, Dr. VERMILYEA, fa ogien | to a question of privt- lege, said he wanted to correct an impression thas prevailed that he intended to reflect w motives of some of the members by what he had said during his speech of Frid: ’ week.

The writer of this short article believes that this divinely appointed plan in allits fulness is set forth by the Book of Common Prayer so dear to the Anglican Communion, Religious Celebration at Melrose. To THe Eprror oF THE HERALD :— The celebration of the feast of “Corpus Christi,” which had been postponed, owing to the inclemency of the weather, took place last Sunday with great pomp at the Church of the Immaculate Conception (German), Rey. Joseph Stumpe, pastor, at Melrose. To say that the ceremonies were solemn and im- posing would be to give a very faint idea of the grand and magnificent services that solemnized the great feast. At four o'clock in the morning the cannons were fired and the chimes pealed forth their melody in acknowledgment that on that day the feast of Corpus Christi would be honored by impos- ing services, followed by a procession of the Most Blessed Sacrament through the streets andavenues of Melrose. By two o'clock P.M. a vast assemblage of people had come together, and afew moments afterward the music band, accom- panied by the Aloysius Young Men’s Society, of Melrose, with banners, and the St. Jerome Temper- ance Society, of Mott Haven, arrived, and took their respective places in the line awaiting the sig- naltomove. A’ three P.M. a solemn vespers was chanted by the choir of the church, Rev. Father Zimmer officiating as celebrant, Rey. Father Rosen- bauer, of the Redemptorists, deacon, and Rev. Father Duranquet, of the Jesuits, sub-deacon, Rey. John Kelly being master of ceremonies. Among the many priests who assisted were noticed Rev. Fathers Peudregast, Callaghan, Bonner, Father | Taylor, of Wilmington, Del., and Rev. Dr. Lovejoy, of St. Stephen's, New York. During yespers Rev. John Hughes, of Mott Haven, delivered an eloquent sermon to the multitude outside, who, owing to the overcrowded condition of the church, were unable to gain admission. It is estimated that at least ten thousand persons took part in the services, Ves- eee being finished Father Zimmer pronounced the enediction of the Blessed Sacrament, after which — the rocession moved towards the first altar, built on the road. First in line was Rev. Chi Cross, accompanied on either rae by an acolyte, each bearing a lighted taper; then followed the young ladies’ societies, numbering about eight hun- dred persons; then the young men’s societies, equally as strong; then the different men's socie- ties of Melrose, St. Jerome Temperance Society of Mott Haven; the music band, the acolytes, number- ing about one hundred each, bearing lighted tapers small bells; the choir, assisted by a juartet; about five hundred small girls, strewing gong, which was rung by the mas- notify the people that the Corpus Christi was approaching; the Voces the celebrant, carrying the Most essed Sacrament under ‘a canopy, carried by six lowers 5 | seen of the congregation, with gentlemen pearing lamps on either side of the priests, and the whole surrounded by companies of the Melrose ‘eatest devotion and religious feel- ing were exhibited along the line of the procession. The procession stopped at each altar, Rev. Stampe giving the solemn benediction, which was preceded in each case by the firing of a volley of muskets. After marching about one mile the procession rpturned and entered the church. The Blessed Sacrament was then replaced in the tabernacle, a few prayers were recited, after — the congregation quietly dispersed, Nineteenth Century Pulpit Oratory— Hyacinthe, Burke, Beecher and Spur- geon. To Tae EprTor OF THE HERALD :— For the space of nearly ten years, in France, be- tween 1858 and 1868, a Carmelite monk by the name of Pere Hyacinthe occupied a wide space in the eye of the world as an eloquent preacher of the Gospel. He preached year after year a serics of conferences at the old cathedral church of Paris, Notre Dame, and that he was truly eloquent and brilliant all admitted. Of a poetic temperament and a lively imagination—the great requisites of true oratory—and a spontaneous flow of language; a discursive mind, that could go back and take in the past and come down and calmly review the present—all finished off by a@ per- fect elocution; Nh therefore, unquestionably stood as the greatest pnipit orator of the age. But what sort of a Gospel did he preach? He wi chasing, in the latter years of his preaching, & | hodge-podge Utopia—a reconciliation of Catholl- ciam with the “society of the nineteenth centary,” and a compromise between Popery, Judaism and | Protestantiam, He was preaching a Goapel that | drew around him infidel members of the French Academy like Michelet and Renan, Louis Napoleon's infidel statesmen, fops and dandies, gentlemen of leisure and ladies of the demt-monde, those com- | posing the weight of his audience, who came, not to hear the Word of God, but of man. Poor, ‘mis- guided man! If he had on) PN ag the Gospel of Jesus Christ, pure and undefiled, he might have saved France the late terrible war, and givena new spiritual life to hia country. But the world led him away, and he is now intéllectualiy dead and for- gotten, Ho is buried In tho gtave of gbilyjon. les Williams, bearing the processional | | declared his ability to prove, by the Bible, the mor- | rily, deny the veracity of the Bibl | | ated in their pulpit teachings, The writer has had ® passion, if it may be so called, to hear our prominent preachers and orators, and during the past | which he must believe defective! | can he ace twenty years has heard most of the eloquent speakers of thattime. Father Gavazzi, as he preached twenty years since, was by far the most eloquent and soul-stirring preacher that ever visited our shores, and Louis Kossuth the most at- tractive and powerful political speaker. Gavazzi, with a vim that was admirable, was all “action, action,” and although his English was very de- fective, his features would often express more than words, and, with his Roman cloak wrapped around him, he would form postures that were strikingly beautiful and expressive. From all that we read his style must have been similar to that of Cicero. On the contrary, Kossuth, the Hungarian patriot, was quite the opposite. He remained in one position, almost statue like, possibly raising his hand once during an hour's oration; yet he held spell- bound immense concourses of people. He used pure Shakspearian English. His power was in the wonderful capacity for accenting his words which his musical volce possessed. So itis we find rare orators with characteristics the most —— Therefore no rule for public speakers can be laid down. There is now preaching in the city of Brook- lyn a man who, in be Gre cea excels, as a pulpit teacher, — and all preachers in that City of Churches. He came from San cisco a little over a year since. I papreney to hear his first ser- mon. He had a total absence of the usual clerical style; he spoke with great rapidity, but clearness; no time was lost in the introductive services, which occupied about ten minutes, instead of the usual half hour. Soon he gave out his tex’ \d from the word go started offat a rattling pace, speaking three words in the time usually occupied in enunciating one, His treatment of the subject was entirely original, his illustrations novel and his sermon—which was full an hour long—aroused his audience to the pitch of enthusiasm. He evidently had visited and lived in most parts of the world. His illustrations were drawn from his wonderful knowledge of astronomy and botany, and the nabits of all kinds of animais, birds and flahes, Such beautiful and exquisite word pictures as were hung before the audience I never before witnessed. In short, such #8 tor- rent of bprning eloquence as he poured forth was tfuly sublime. Imagining that this wonderful preaching could not be sustained, I at- tended in the evening. His fame had evidently been noised around, for the church, the aisles and pulpit platform were occupied and many people were unable to find entrance. Ihave heard him many times since, and | think he rather improves. The crowds are the same, and his congregation—the Ormond place Congregational—are erecting him a building almost as large as Talmage’s and on the same style. Ilook upon Dr. H. M. Scudder as one of if not the greatest and most effective preacher known to the American pulpit to-day. Pitching into “Cato.” To THe Epiror OF THR HERALD :— 1 have taken much interest in the theological correspondence of your valnable journal, especially in the communications of “Cato,” in which he has tality of the soul. In compliance with this asser- tion he, in his last argument, endeavored to show, acripturally, the non-existence of that mortal agency. Does not “Cato” see that he has committed an error? Has {it not occurred to him that a man, re- jecting the immortality of the soul, must, necessa- for does not that good Book, through multitadin paragraphs, show the existence of an everlasting soul? How ridiculous, then, to take as a criterion a work Again, how | t @ part of the Scriptures as true and disbelieve the rest? Can each mind suit | itselt which part to believe and which not? Now, ranting that “Cato” earnestly disavows *‘immor- fuity,” and consequently discredits the Bible, can he strengthen his point by referring to a work of which he disapproves’ There exists a certain class of people which believes in the nonentity of the im- mortal sou, Of whom is it composed? To ascer- tain we will divide our Christians into three classes—viz.: The first class is composed of the untutored, who, thongh genius undeveloped by education lies latent om, consider {t above their sphere to object to | which to them seem demonstrated beyond a | doubt; and others, who, having no thinking faculty | f their own, would believe in the “Arabian Nights’ re it but tanght them with as intense a fervor as that which characterizes their devotion to the Al- mighty. 6 second clase consists of persons having keen called perceptions, educated, endowed with great con- | berths tn the hospital; it was eight or ten feet by | Rev. Frederick M. Gr: ception for certain studies; some perceive the | mysteries of language; others evince a marvellous knowledge of human nature; while others, agatn, have a wonderful predilection for mnatc, ke. Be: ‘ond their forte everything is obscurity, and al- hough some candidly think themselves capable of | discerning the intricacies of studies ont of their sphere, they see but to a certain boundary; beyond that ail is darkness. Among the third class are numbered some of our most profound thinkers; men who recognize the superiority of human-kind over the brute crea- tion; who, ae ov. research, pre convinced of the magnitude and magnaniming of “God's works,” and convey their thoughts to myriads of reflective men. “Cato,” L fear, belongs to the second class, Let him bear tn mind the proverb, ‘A little learning is months it ists in, ‘The; in this regard. which the; selves. ment for the outrages committed by their coreligion- ists upon us. are too charit silence into consent or approval of those acts. But, knowing what a great agent the gre is to correct and to lead public opinion, he fe! on this subject was virtually an endorsement of the outrages, The eruptions of Vesuvius, the earth- a dangerous ee is genius is hay mig cdl and although he embody his thoughts in flowery lan- guage, and thereby misiead the oredulous, he falls vo Lnprewg & Inveligct.

This mission of Israel is holy and peculiar. The priest- hood belongs to the sanctuary, but the whole earth ig the sanctuary in which Israel is to preach the truth and to proclaim the ona true God, so that all may eventually be brought to Him, This duty involves upon rael self sacrifice. It is unlike that priest- craft of other nations and religions which sneaks through the mp, seh and byways, and fattens on the gifts of its deluded followers, It 18 as different to that as lightis to darkness. It is that priestcraft which has engendered animosities inst Israel and eee those gross persecutions which have sullied the 8 of history and are a foul blot upon hamanity. t man could have heard for of the persecutions of our ooreligion- amania and not be appalled thereby ? have been the standing theme of discussion for four months, and they have not failed to make impressions upon those who had the head or the heart of humanity. THE PRESS HAS DONE ITS DUTY But while reading the Kaleidoscopic reports in the Henaup of sermons preached in the pulpits of our city and vicinity, he failed to finda word or @ line condemnatory of those outra; Here was an opportunity of doing to others that would wish to have done toward them- re Wasa chance to make some atone- Byt they failed to embrace it. We ly disposed to construe that it that its silence quake at Antiooh, the labor strikes and many other like things have been made themes of pulpit dis- course, but not one allusion has been made to those outrages. But, thanks to the governments of the civilized nations—Italy, Germany, England, and, more especially, our own government—vigorous efforts have been put forth to stop these outrages. And let us hope that the perpetration of such out- rages will soon and forever unknown and un- heard of, and that the law of God, as given on Sinai, may prevail over bigotry and fanaticism, and Israel's mission be completed; when all man- kind shall worship the same God and be united in holiness and peace. APPOINTMENTS OF PRIESTS. Archbishop McCloskey Fills Some of the Vacancies in the Catholic Churches. Yesterday Archbishop McCloskey appointed six assistant pastors in the Archdiocese of New York. The Rey. John McQuirk, a graduate of Mount St. Mary's College, Emmettsburg, and student of the American College, Rome, has been sent to assist the Rey. Dr. McGlynn, St. Stephen's; the Rev. Patrick Malone will officiate at the Church of the Immacu- late Cee a East Fourteenth street, and the Rev. James Flood at the Church of the pad Cross, West Forty-second street. The Rev. Father Briody, of Newburg, will have the assistance of the Rey. John J. Keoghan in the administration of his parish. The Rev, Patrick J. Brophy will en- ter on his missionary labors as the successor of the late Father Keenan in the parish of the Transfig- uration, Mott street. Itis expected that other ap- pointments will be made next week, and the vacant eee lately held by Bishop McNeirny, SICKNESS AND DEATH AT SEA, The Athena Investigation—No Physician on Board—Recommendation by the Jury. Yesterday afternoon Coroner Keenan investi- gated the circumstances attending the death of- the children Joseph Witundski and Frederick Schu- bring, who died on board the German emigrant ship Athena. The Coroner did not go as exten- | Sively into the case as he would have done had not the Castle Garden Committee of the Commissioners of Emigration already made a thorough investiga- tion. synopsis has ee in the HERALD. Henry Hocher, of 87 West street, who came as steerage passenger on the Athena, deposed that they had coffee in the morning, evening tea, with ship bread; all the steerage passengers and herrings, pork and beans, prunes, saur kraut; those that were sick had extra soup; all the pas- sengers had ali they wanted; no passenger com- plained of want of food; there were a num- her died on the a perhaps twenty; three or sour died of smallpox; those that had the smallpox were ,separated from the rest; the other sick remained with the other passengers; the first mate and captain pre- scribed for those that were sick; there were twelve six; there was another place for the sick about eighteen feet long; there was plenty of air there, furnished by sails andthe side lights. John ©, Christoffers, captain of the bark Athena, testifled that he left Bremen April 4, with general cargo and 474 passengers; the tonnage of the vessel was 1,064; before reaching quarantine had eighteen deaths; the captain said he we his assengers an abundance of good, lesome food; had no doctor ‘on the vessel ; for hes Let ti mye a8 al men. vvoostor Beach, M.

Dr. Vermilya himself did not know the name of the Rutger, for he called itthe Rutger Theological Seminary. (Laughter.) When such profound ignorance in the doctors of divinity as to the institutions of the Church as this was shown, what could be expected of the rest? Dr. Vermilya had made a most elo- quent and able speech, and he would ap- ‘al to all the members who were present if this were not so. He wished he could praise his taste and judgment for the same speech, but he would not undertake to do this. The speaker then went on to speak of the question of the adoption of the report presented yesterday in recommending the creation of an ‘additional professorship om Christian polemics in the Theological Seminary. He alluded to the acrimonious discussion to which it jad led. There was no division among the mem- bers of the committee in the making of the re; Dr. ANDERSON defended himself from the a upon him Dr. Vermilyea, saying that he been assailed in the most fagrant manner in the debate of Friday. He contended that the committes had performed the duty which they eee ap- pointed to perform, and that thie; acted under the feeling in the Syn that some change was needed in the management of the semi- nary. Dr. Anderson referred to a conversation he had held with a prominent member of the Church, who charged that the affairs of the se were not conducted as they might be, and that none of the professors there could build up the institution. He also said that there was a general FERLING AMONG THR STUDENTS to leave the place in a body. nis ee t Dr. Garretson to his feet, wto ao he would advise Dr. Anderson to change the style | his argument. If Dr. Anderson did hot he (Dr. Garretson) would be obliged to have, as he could not remain and Isten to words which caused him more pain than any he ever heard. Dr. Garretson had een born in the Dutcn Church and had lived there a hia life; but he had never been pained so much # he had been by these words, The venerable Dr. Anderson, in reply, declire@ that he had been longer in the Church than Dr. tar- retson, but that was no reason why he should hep silent when an institution tn which they all hai 6o great an interest was sinking under bad mange- ment. Dr. Anderson continued his remarks ati noon, when the Synod adjourned for the day, wth- out taking a vote on the report. The session vill | be resumed to-morrow. EXIT BROWN.
