A Former Episcopal Clergyman’s First Sermon as a Catholic Pricst. To THE’KDITOR OF THE HERALD:— On Sunday, the 10th of February, Soptuaguesima Sunday, while \gne body of our late beloved Vicar General, Father Stars was lyingin state in St. Patrick’s Cathedral? q¥hile the same teaching poured from some pulpita and gle same wrangling from others, and the ecclestasticd’ year was enter- ing into tts second (and penitential) Stage, another event, not less significant in its silent éson on men’s souls, took place in St, Paul's’ (Catholic) chureh, Fifty-ninth street and Ninth avenue. At the half-past ten o'clock mass the sermon was preached by the Rev. Father Stone, lately ordained, Hardly more than thirty-flve years of age, Father Stone has, nevertheiess, @ history well known to many outside tne Church of which he 18 now a ministering priest, An Episcapal clergyman and a Doctor of Divinity, succes- Sively President of Kenyon and Hobart Colleges, and, lastly, the author (after his conversion) of a book which has been widely circulated, and re- ceived even by Anglicans with more or less favor, “The Invitation Heeded’—thid young priest has had a brilliant and successful past, and, of his own accord, has given up a most Mattering position, His first sermon as @ Catholic priest, before a host of learned men, his elders and his religious teach- ers, would naturally be a great occasion, A “maiden speech" is always a source of great per- sonal anxiety—a sort of keynote io the future carcer ofa public man, It would not be unusual in the worla to see @ man placed in this position very much taken up with himseli; too conscious of the occasion to be able to go earnestly or lucidly into his subject, and altogether too evidently cager for a successtul personal result. In Father Stone, none of this sell-consciousness appeared; and although he seemed perfectly at his ease, and thoroughly master of all he meant to say, there was mone of that dis- tressing straining after effect which one might have expected elsewhere. Whether it is hisown clear cut New England character which gives him that self-possession without assumption which we have described, or whether it is the masterly in- fluence of a body of men each so distinguished in some branch of learning as the Paulist Fathers, which has absorbed the former personality of this notable convert into another wider and higher— the personality of Christ—certain it 1s at any rate that he seems no longer the preacher, but the “voice” of truth. He chose his text appropriately to the penitential season now CEeate “Par- takers with the suderings of Christ, rejoice”— and went on to show the beauty, the dignity and the merit of Christian suffering, le explained the change from the “Alleluta,” in the Liturgy, to the “Sans tibi Domino,’’ the first being, according to St. Augustine, the jubilant language of heaven, used during half the year in anticipation of the glory Fe OC aye lon home, a ee ert yepresenting the language of earth, and use in peultentin Sonimemore on of our earthly ills and dangers. He then went on to develop the nature and meaning of sutfering, a thing insig- nificant in itself, and mere consequence of sin, and valuable only inthe spiritual order relatively to circumstances which have given it a new phase, Christ chose suffering as the means of the redemp- tion of man, thereby glorifying and neni it, whereas He might, had He wished, have redeemed the world by the first tear He shed in the stable at Bethlehem or the first drop of blood poured forth in the Temple at the circumeision. Again, He chose suffering, this meaningless temporal conse- quence of ain, as tho instrument wherewith to efface that sin itseif, thus teaching us to “take stepping-stones of our very delinquencies, whereon to reach heaven.” Father Stone spoke eloquently of the vaiue of suffering, altogether apart from its supernatural merit, and as @ proof of love only. ‘Who,”’ he said, “ever in the world would value a love that could not prove itself or was not cagerly ready to prove itself by suffering and sacrifice?” This prongns to his mind a touching trait, although a mete domestic occur- rence, which many might find sufficiently prosaic, even ludicrous; but the preacher went at once to the heart of the motive, and drew from it a beauti- ful lesson, easily seized by the least imaginative of his hearers. He said that some years ago an Eng- lish statesman, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, was going to speak in the House of Commons on the budget of the year, and that on this speech greatly depended his own continuance in the conti- dence of the nation and in the counsels of his sovereign, His wife, to whom he was tenderly at- tached, was to accompany him and witness his triumph, The time came, and the carnage was at the door. Just as they were Starting the carriage door was shut with some haste and the lady’s finger was crushed by the hinge. Knowing that her husband’s thoughts were intent upon ailairs of greater importance to the nation even than to himself, she forbore to disturb him and leaned back in the carriage, pale but silent. So they drove through the long wind- ing streets, every jolt causing the crushed finger a throb of exquisite pain; but the true-hearted wife found her consolation in looking on the face of her husband and thinking of his comtng success. She left him at_ the door of the House of Commons and | Went to her place in the closely-grated ladies’ gal- lery. He was not to speak for some time, but she would not leave her place even now, though the pain made her head swim. The speech came off at jast and was stormily applauded. The great risk had become @ great success; the strain was over and she fainted in her seat. “Well,’? said the enthusiastic preacher, “was not that a love worth having?’ A sympathetic stir among his audience bore hima silent answer and showed that his simple illustration of homely life had told. “But what shall we say of Divine love?” he asked again, and then branched off into glorious histories of the saints and of the sufferings they had courted for God’s dear sake. Two of them—the mest impressive—will suffice here :— St. Peter, of Alcantara, lay dying in a poor bare room, all unattended and unwatched, amid the busy throng of a great city. He had loved God ail his life with a burning, hungry love, and now he was going to Him, to see Him face to face. He was very happy in his heart, but a torturing thirst now and then distracted his mind from his ecstasies of prayer. Aman came in at last, seeking from the Saint spiritual consolation, and was shocked to find him in this state. St. Peter gently insisted on giving him the advice and consolation he needed before allowing him to do any_ physical service to his own aying body. But when his visitor had brought him from the fountain a pitcher of puse, fresh water, St. Peter, raising himself with difiicuity, looked lovingly on the crucifix that hung beside him, and silently lifted the vessel to the lips of the ivory figure of our Lord, Alter a few moments’ contemplation he re- turned it to his astonished companion, saying, in gentle tones, “Friend, | thank thee for thy charity.”” Then again the preacher continued :— “Have you ever heard of that young Japanese gitt who Was martyred at the same time that many hundred Christians suffered for the faith, and who, being bound to the stake, was freed by the Names themselves which burned through the cords that confined her hands? Do you think that when she felt herself free she took the opportunity to leave the stake and make good her escape? Oh, no! But she stooped down and with her poor blistered bands gathered up the live coals at her feet, and raising them slowly, set them like a bridal coronet of roses upon her brow.’” Here mpoy around me were visibly moved to tears, and [Indeed the reverent charm of such stories ts indescribable. The closeness of argument, the precision of arrangement and the fluency of delivery of the preacher were each in turn advan- tageously conspicuous, and no doubt this gifted young New Englander will find as successful a career open to him in the Church of his mature adoption as that which he left in the Anglican Church. Still no one knows better than himself that with us success is not the goal nor the crite- rion of spiritual life, and that behind whatever lile he leads in public, whether it be long or short, easy or laborious, agitated or even, God will look into the hidden life of grace in his soul as the prin- cipal test of his worthiness. We may hear of him in the lecture hall yet; he has talents that would insure him a goou reception on that ground. His literary capacities may be measured by his “Invita- tion Heeded,”’ a book much read and deeply thought over. We conclude by hoping that the Church in America will be always increasingly made seyret by a harvest of such native talent as that of Father Stone (and of many others as emi- nent, but older in the faith, such as nearly all the Paulist Fathers are), and that in time she may count among them her Newman ana her Faber, her Wilberforce and her Manning. COLUMBA. The Ministry of the Protestant Episco- pal Church. From the Church Almanac for the year 1873 there appears to be 2,700 parishes and 2,938 priests and deacons connected with the Protestant Epis- copai Church in the United States. It further ap- Dears that of this number of priests and deacons 4S1, OF about one-sixth of the whole number, are Withont parishes. Of this number about forty-two are doctors in divinity. When, in addition to this, we take into consideration the fact that a large number of the clergy of this Church in active service are employed as professors and teachers, agents for diferent societies and chaplains in the army and navy, the surprise will bo increased that so large @ number are disengaged. Some, from age and infirmity, having finished their work, are unable louger to labor. Others, though rich in the accumulated experiences of years, and of unques- tioned piety, have been compelled to step aside to make room for the more attractive vi acity of youth and the no less important consideration of economy in expenditure for salary, While others again, and this by far the largest proportion, as has been charged, are by temperament or educa- tion or lack of piety found to be entirely inefictent in the discharge of the ministerial ofice. That such is fhe fact in a single instance out of 481 of the clergy anemployed we would very sorry to assert, though some bigh in guthority have su de- clared. Whatever the cause may be, the startling tact is presented on one side, that one-sixth of the clergy of this Church are without employment, and on the other, that in the same Church a single society is asking this year for the additional amount of $40,000 for the education of young men for the ministry. There is evidently something wrong here, either on the Ved of the clergy, the laity or in the syatemyof education adopted. We have before us @ journal of the Convention of a neighboring diocese for 1870, In this diocese there are seventy-three parishes, forty-five of which promise salaries to their clergymen not to exceed $000 per annum, some of them running as low as $200, $100, $50, $25, One clergyman, well known throughout the country for his ability as a religious journalist, reports a salary of $7 a week. ‘This state of things should bring a blush of shame and ieaiena toy to the cheek of every honest layman in the and The ministerial office, we fear, has in many places boen so cheapened as to be despised. What We obtain without exertion and sacrifice we rarely value. The jor poung men in the minis- try—or {f married, to ¥ ithout “incumbrance!— is becoming too general, call do’ ang can hardly serve to wi the blessing OF ai any god in tho building up of His Church an saving — souls. lo} we gure that rare some of the clergy, including bishops, are williout fault in this matter. We may be im error, Yet, to us, it appears unwise to hold out inducements to young men to enter the ministry under the assur- ance that their education will cost them nothing, as the Church provides a fund amply sufficient for the purpose. Isit nota temptation to the inemi- cient, the improvident-and the ambitious ? The first yesson of life in our estimation, next to the love and fear of God for every, young man to learn, is that of self-reliance. Without this he halts upon the crutches that his friends provide, or sinks dis- couraged and retires from the race. Who would think of instituting @ fund for the education of young men for’ the study of the law or of medicine, or of journalisni,.and if such a fund were pro- vided ‘what wou be the result? Ana shall not the highest of all cailings that of the sacred ministry win youfig men of the right stamp, moved by the spirit of God, to give tnem- selves to his service? He who is earnest in pur- suit of an earthly object will only be quickened to ress On the more vigorously in the determination for its attainment by the deepest ens | and one wno feels called of God to win souls to Christ will require no pledges or promises of support to in- duce him to leave all and follow Him, We commend as a movement in the right direc- tion the wisdom and example of the Educational Soctety of the Episcopal Church in Virginia in its determination to ascertain the intellectual, re- ligious or theological views of all applicants for ad- mission to the ministry in other ways than by juestions addressed to the candidates, and also for adopting the following questions to be un- swered :— 1.

Five Baptist churches in Philadelphia report an aggregate accession of members on profession of faith of thirty-one not heretofore reported. Four were added to the church in Chester, Pa., on Sun- day last; thirty-one have united with the Baptist church in Linesville, Pa., as the result in part of an eight weeks’ meeting held there; nine have been added to the church in Providence, Pa., one of whom is reported as a Methodist preacher. The First and Union Baptist churches of Pittsburg, Pa., have united their Yeeble forces in one strong ‘church, to be known as tho Fourth avenue Baptist church of that city. Six persons were baptized in the church last week. Rev. A. Wilson has resigned the pastorate of the Salem Baptist church of West Newton, Pa. Twenty-two have joined the Baptist church in Franklin, Ind, since January. ‘The Baptist church in Madison, Ind., has called Rev. B, F, Cairns, of Vincennes, to be their pastor. There is aremarkable Baptist preacher in Baltimore, Rey. Dr. Fuller by name. He is pastor of the Eutaw place church. He has provoked a contro- versy with his church, who insist on increasing his salary, while he peremptorily declines the in- crease. We doubt if a companion preacher can be found for him in the country. In McGranville, N. Y., forty have been seeking pardon, and many have believed and united with the Baptisc cnurch there. At Jericho, N. Y., seven have recently pro- fessed faith in Christ. Twenty-five inquirers have attended meetings in Pemberton, N.J., most of whom have been converted. Seventeen have united with the Baptist church in Coiumbus, Ohio, of which Rey. J. F. Stedham is pastor. Rev. W. H. Kling, of Great Falls, N. H., has accepted the pas- torts of the Baptist church in Wakefleld and entered upon his duties. Revivals are reported also in Greenwood Baptist church, Brooklyn; in West Meriden, Conn., and around bBellast, Me., and among the students in Franklin College; also in the North Baptist church on Staten Island, where eleven were recently baptized; in Shaw- mut avenue church, Boston; in Bowdoin square church, where twenty-five inquirers recently pre- sented themselves; in Spring Garden church, Phil- adelphia; in Grace Baptist church, where six were baptized on Sunday night, At ‘Truxton, Morris, McGranville and East Durham, all in the State of New York, there have been revivals and a large number of conversions, Rev. Mr. Van Meter writes from Rome tothe Baptist Weekly to say that every one of his schools has been reopened and all are now running on more successfully than before. His Bible school tor men and youth is largely attended every night. He was about to open asimilar night School tor women. He de- clares that the cause of the trouble which closed his schools for a while was his distribution of Bi- bles and Testaments and tracts and the domiciliary visits of his teachers. He was requested to with- draw from the Vatican mission and to teach or- dinary things in his other schools and he should have no further annoyance. He declined, METHODIST. Revivals of religion continue with unabated in- terest all over the land. In Galion, Ohio, the Methodist Episcopal Church reports 160 accessions within seven weeks; in Glen’s Fall (N. Y.) Metho- dist Episcopal Church 107 had been received on probation up to February 3, the result of a revival Still progressing; in Springfield, Ind., there have been 60 accessions to the church this season; in Ka- per chapel, Dayton, Ohio, 60, and in Penn Yan, N. Y., 40. On Penn Circuit (Pittsburg Conference) 70 per- sons have found the Saviour; at Carpenter’s Sta- tion 60 souls have been converted and organizea into a church; in Newtown and Irwin charges (same conference) the conversions have been 30 in the former and 22 in the latter. At Bradley chapel (Pittsburg Conference) 50 have united with the Church; at Sharon, Pa., 45 conversions are re- ported; at Searsport, Me., 60; on Gaines charge (Central New York Conference) 50 souls have been converted; in Georgetown Del.) Methodist, Epis- copal church 50,and in Dayton, N. Y., an equal number. In the Methodist Episcopal chureh, Burbank, Ohio, 34 conversions are reported; at Mifflinsburg, Pa., 40; at Glenwood, Iowa, 55 have united with the Methodist Episcopal Church; on Adamsville charge, Pittsburg Couterence, 100 have been received on probation, and the good work continues; in the Methodist Episcopal church in McKeesport, Pa, 220 have been received on prcbation since last conference ; at West Bridge- Roan charge, Pittsburg Conference, 50 souls have een converted; in Glassborough, N.J., 70 acces- sions are reperted; in Bloomsburg, Metno- dist Episcopal church, 60 baye found peace; in Mayfield, Troy Conference, union meetings of the different denominations have been held for eleven days under the direction of Rev. E. Davies, of Read- ing Mass., and the result has been 200 conversions, 106 of whom have united’ with the Methodist Beal church, Last Sunday Beekman Hill church, in this city, received 14 on probation; in Forty-iourts street Methodist Episcopal church, in this city, 20 persons were at the altar last Sunday, 10 of whom have united with the church on proba- tion; in Nostrand avenue church, Brooklyn, 20 were seeking and 12 a to know their sins for- given; on the Sabbath previous also 9 were re- ceived here on probation. Churches are to be ded- icated in Gilman, Ill., to-day, in Allen, Mich., on the 19th inst., and in Putneyville, N. Y., February 23. The walls of the new edifice for the Beekman Hill Methodist Episcopal charch, in this city, are near, up, and the whole structure will seon be enclosed. A Methodist be potas Sunday Schoo! Union has been organized in San Francisco. The Builalo Common Council have tendered the use of one of the public school buildings of that city for the use of the Jersey street Methodist Episcopal church during the rebuilding of their edifice, recently de- stroyed by fire. The Methodists of St. Paul, Minn., to the number of nearly one thousand five hun- dred, Sn with 00 from Minneapolis, gave Bishop Merrill a warm and hearty reception on January 31, on his going to reside with them, as directed by the last General Conference. CONGREGATIONAL. Mr. Beecher goes West on a short lecturing tour Monday. Rev. H. R. Timlow, late of the Christian Intelligencer, has accepted a call to the Con- ag ey church at Southington, Conn. Rev. Dr. . Bartlett has, atter much persuasion, withdrawn his resignation of the pastorate of Plymouth church, Rochester, N. Y. Notwithstanding the great fire, the Shawmut church, Boston, contributed on Sun- day, January 26, $3,600 as their annuai gift in aid of foreign missions. The Christian Union Society at North Truro, Mass., changes its preachers every two years, having Methodists and Congregation- alist8 alternately, Rev. Charles H. Bullard, of Hurtford, has been appointed District Secretar, of the American Tract Society for Connecti- cut and Western Massachusetts. Rev. James Bourne, late of Kast Kutiand, Vt. has accepted a cali to North Stonington, Conn, The South Congregational Church of West Roxbury, Mass., has substituted a Bible exposition ser- vice on Sunday afternoous instead of peel It has been tried and proved eminently successtt interesting and useful. Ill health has compelied Rev. H. M. Holliday to resign his pastorate at Alma, Mich. Rev. W, S. Karr, late of Keene, N. H., has become pastor of Prospect street Uongrega- tional church, Cambridgeport, Mass. The Congre- gational churches of New York, Brookiyn and vi- ity find that their plan of a General Foreign Mis. sionary Committee works successfully, The second annual mee of this committee was held last week (a Rev. Dr. Storrs church, Brooklyn, when fourteen of the societies wore r ted. The ol of the o1 tion is to it the A. B.C, ¥. M., and its ability to do 80 very materially can- not be questioned. The aggregate amount con- ear to the American Board from pine of the churc! in this vicinity was $14,365, of which the Church of the Ptigrims gave $4,904; the Broadway Tabernaele, $3,515; fr Budington’'s chureh, $2,650, &c. These figures indicate some ane over the contributions of tle previous ear. _ a 1s TRRDTTERIAN. he endowment fund of $200,000 for th eshy- terian hospital in this city has been pring te subscription. As Mr. Lenox proposes to add $25,000 to this amount, if a like sum is raised by others, it is reasonable to expect that the friends of this institution will respond to this generous offer, and speedily complete the contempiated e1 dowment of $260,000, ‘The Presbyterians of Gon- zales, Texas, are about to build a church. The Presbyterian missions have eight presses at work in Shanghai, China, a type foundry and electro. typing and stereotyping establishments, ‘The church at Big Rapids, Mich., have nearly com- pleted thelr house of worsnip to hold service in it. The Observer states that more tian eight bundred Presbyterian ministers (not counting editors, eegretaries, foreign missionaries, 4c.) are abso- mn oly uperplovee, eisbont anything ae in their profegsio le in the vineyard, And this fact, re tay, js actually tated in Bia midst of alabored argument to prove the peces- sity of organized means vo rise u} more ininisters, Surely, it adds, if we have a system to put three or four hundred new men into the work annually, we ought to have a system to put them and the eight or nine hundied surojus men into a place where they can work and be supported in their work! We think so too, The Rey. Mr. Knight, of Dundee, Scotland, who was recently didotplinea by his. presbytery for preaching in a Unitarian chured exchange with Key. Mr. Martineau, has got lu self into fresh trouble, This time itis prayer not preaching. He has written and published an article on prayer, in which, among other things, he declares taat lo pray for fine weather or for rain (except as a humble expression of man’s depend- ence upon forces that are vaster than he, and on Him from whom they emanate) is quite as illegitimate Os it is to pray against the approach of Winter, the return of Summer, or even against to-mbrrow's sunrise.” The Fourth Presbyterian church, Syra- cuse, N. Y., which has for some time been in course of erection, is about completed, and will in a short tine be dedicated. The entire cost of the chu! including lot, is estimated at $52,000. Rev. Dr, Booth, of University Place Presbyterian church, New York, last Sunday received fourteen persons tore the church on proiession of faith and nine by etter, in EPISCOPALIAN, The Rev. Dr, Storrs’ church, in Brooklyn, has been purchased by the Episcopalians for $30,000, Fiity clergymen of the diocese of Massachusetts have signed a memorial, petitioning the Standing Committee to call # special convention lor the election of a bishop. Inthe diocese of New York there are 307 clergymen, 188 churches and chapels, 25,827 communicants, 24,369 catechumens, 2,514 Sunday school teachers. Many of the clergy, at @ recent Convention of the Pittsburg diocese ot the Episcopal church, advocated the abandonment of the sunday school system and a general return to the ancient practice of religious instruction in the family, The Niger Mission of the Church Missionary Society, which is an offshoot oi the West Alrican Mission, is entirely conducted py native teachers, priests, &c., with a native bishop, The principal stations are Onitsha, on the Niger River, tirst occupied in 1857, and Lokoja, also on the river, Akassa, Brass and Bonny, on the sea coast, are also stations, the latter having been occupied but a lew years, Bishop Crowther, the native bishop, ordained last year, m the new Bonny church, which the King and chiefs have helped to build, three ministers, and admitted the same day five young men to the Church, whom he calls the first fruits of the Bonny Mission. There were more than four hundred natives present at the services, who, buta lew years since, were cannibals, One chief and others of lower rank were giving up their idols, and King and chiefs were alike interested in the boarding and day schools, which were in flourishing condition. The ritualistic movement goes on in England. In Southampton a ruri-decanal Ineeting of the clergy was lately held, wyen the subject of “conlession’” was discussed, and it was agreed by a majority of 30 to 6to promote itin a modified jorm The attention of Bishop Wilberforce has been called to the matter, and he has promised to make inquiry, Rev. J. Edgar Johnson, formeriy a Unitarian, has become an Episcopalian, and been ordained to the ministry in the diocese of Albany. Rev, William A, W. Maybin, formerly of St. Paul's church, Brooklyn D., N. Y., has taken charge of church work in Aberdeen, Miss, An amusing scene took place in St. John’s church, East Hartiord, on Sunday evening. The choir had just finished chant- ing the psalter for the day, when a large corona of evergreens holding a couple of dozen candies, was found to be on fire. It was suspended by wires directly over the chancel, and held by Jarge wreaths of evergreens reaching the ceiling and sides of the sacristy. It was impossible at the moment to pull these down, and they were soon on fire, the lames spreading rapidly along the heavy ropes of dry evergreens, The Rev, M. Hobbie, the rector, threw off bis surplice, and so also did the choristers, who, with the males in the audience, rushed out of doors for snow, as no water was available. Then commenced a’ funny scene, all of these men throwing snowballs at the burning wreaths, They thus succeeded in putting out the fire, which, but for their prompt efforts, might have proved serious. ROMAN CATHOLIC. The Bishop of Richmond has issued a pastoral letter calling attention to the need of Catholic Christian education in the diocese, He urges that Catholic parochial schools be established and fos- tered, so that the rising generations may be as godly and pious Catholics as the present are. A triduo has been celebrated in the Church of San Maurizio Dei Monti, Rome, in honor of Blessed Benedict Labre, One of the consequences of the national pilgrimage to the church and shrine of St. Genevieve (Pantheon), Paris, will be the complete restoration of that very fine monument. The Cathoue Keview has private information of the death of Louise Lateau, the celebrated stigmatizer, ‘The royal decree has been promuigated whereby the State formally takes erg oe of sixteen con- vents in Rome, . J. A. Darragh, 0. 8. A., since May last, has been confined to the house at the pac residence, St. Augustine's church, Philadelphia, suffering from a spinal ar- fection, He is not likely to recover. The Most Rey. Alexander Taché, Archbishop of St. Boniface, is suffering from a disease in one of his legs that pre- vents him (this writing) from exercising his apos- tolic functions, St. Boniface is the See of the British province, known 4s Manitoba, on the Red River of the North, lying off north of Minnesota. The disease of Monsiegneur Taché comes from posure in the discharge of nis duties in that in hospitable climate. The financial report of St. Vincent’s Parish and Orphan Asylum, Baltimore, makes a gratifying exhibit. ‘The receipts hav becn $8,387, and the cash remaining in the trea- sury $1,437. The receipts for the Asylum in- clude @ donation of $500 from the late Archbishop Spalding. The Voce della Verita publishes @ story concerning the miraculous cure of an Abruzzi wood worker, whose finge: one hand were paralyzed by an accident. Every- thing that could be had been cried to restore life to these members, but being unabie to work he be- came pious, and while invoking the intercession of St. Francis de Paul and re ing the communion, on the 3d of January, his hand was restored whole asthe other. The plastering and frescoing of the new Cathedral in Boston, Mass., is nearly finished alter a year’s continuous labor; the cost of this part of the work cannot be less than $40,000, mission was opened in the Cathedral on the Feast of the Purification by the ain Fathers, who have since held another mission in St. Augus tine’s church, South Boston, at which,thirteen con- verts were received. On the 3d of February they commenced @ mission, or rather a renewal o! one which took place a short time since, at the Cathedral chapel of the Holy Cross, Boston, which is proving very fruitfal, crowding the church both at the morning and evening services to its utmost capacity. At the close of this mission the Re- page) Fathers will give one in Jamaica Plain and in Worcester, Mass. MISCELLANEOUS. The Rev. James W. Ward, of Lakeville, Mass., of the Rev. William HM. Ward, of the /nde- died in this city a few days ago, in conse- » of injuries received by a fall from a horse A. P. iad 10 D.D., writes a touching Vhina, and addressed to the E car. appeal from Canton, students in various theological seminaries, calling for missionaries, The up town Israelites, residing on the east side, announce @ fair early in March in tden. Their object is to raise a fund for the establishment of a German and Hebrew free school. The entire amount of expenditure of all the foreign mission funds gathered in the British Isles is estimated at £900,000, or $4,500,000, ‘This sum represents the money actually passing out of the offices at home and administered from the United Kingdom. Adding the sums raised in the mission fields and expended by the agents of the same british societies, the total sum amounts to £1,100,000, or $5,500,000, In Syria, from Antioch to Carmel, there are ninety-five places whqre Prot- est: hools are maintained. In some of these places, a8 in Jerusalem, Damascus, Beirut, &c., are several of these schools. Besides these, there are @ number of important establishments of other faiths, In Beirut alone are eighteen large educational institutions belong- ing respectively to Moslems, Greeks, Armenians, Maronites, Jesuits, &c. Rev. Dr. Irvine McGee suc- ceeds the Rev. 8. P, Spreecher (now of the First Presbyterian church, Utica,) as the pastor of the First Lutheran church of Albany. Rev. G. W. Pow- ell, of Leroy, N. Y., has accepted a cali to the Uni- versalist church in Baltimore, Md. Rev. L. F. McKinney has resigned his pastorate of the Univer. salist church in Bridgeton, Me., for his heaith's sake. A Universalist church was recently organ- ized in Nyack, N, Y., and the society are now build- ing a house of worship. There are about forty families in the society and Rev, W, P, Payne is their minister. FORTY-FOURTH STREET SYNAGOGUE. The Unity of God Main ed=Sermon by Rev. S. M. Isaacs, Our history, said Mr. Isaacs yesterday, In a few remarks prefatory to h’'s sermon, is not like any Other history. Weare called the chosen people, and yet we are subject to all the vicissitudes of other men, and it may seem strange to some that it should be so. We have been separated from men that we might be a holy people anto the Lora, As Moses declares DB Deuterouomy iv, 3-1, muse that the Lore ne In 40d; e t ; side Him. Out of heaven «made thee to h His voice, that He might inay@¢!, thee; and upon eal ie He eres ee 4 eat words out oi = * © Know, therefore, this day, ,*04 consider it in thine heart, that the Lord He 13 Gow! 2 heaven above and upon the earth beneath; there % one else.” You are all acquainted with our mora !aw, said Mr. Isaacs, The Ten Commandments delwred to our fathers on Mount Sinai are not only if our synagogues, but they are in every Christian chuveh. But let others do as they please in regard to the.; - wit Stand by our own charter. We are certai rh be- “I DORS NOT MEAN “WE, “Tam the Lord thy God” does not and cannot mean & plurality of Gods, And Mr, Isaacs said he looked for the day when a proclamation will be issued de» claring that the Lord is one God. “Unto thee it Was showed," said Moses. There was nothing se- cretabout it, But some of our modern Israelites ask what right they have to be bound by the laws And statutes of their fathers. If we recur back to our history, he said, we shall find that our fathers promised to do as wellas to hear ail that the Lord had commanded, and to teach their children to do like- wise, | ‘They Were satisticd that the Lord would not Sive them any laws that were not for their well- Deing. Th fore they said “we will do and we wiil hea: How ready we all are to call upon God in the time of adversity and trial and suttering and sorrow, but in the hour of joy and prosperity how apt we are to forget Him, “And because He loved thy fathers, therefore He chose their seed alter them, and brought thee out in His sight with His mighty power out of Egypt. To drive out natioi from before thee, greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an taheritance.” In recurring to THE SCENE ON MOUNT SINAT we must see what the law says, It was to be for all times and for all nations. We hear that law, but we doit not. We see it before usin the ark of the testimony; we hear it read in the syna- gogues every Sabbath day, and tn our families and in our schools; we see it and hear it in concurrent testimony, but we will not do it. We run after strange gods; whereas it was shown thee, accord- ing to the text, that the Lord is our God, and there is none else beside Him, There is no mediator with, no companion for God. The Decalogue proves this conclusively, The first tour command- ments reiate to the duty of man toward God, and the other six to the duty of man to man, and It is imperative upon us that all these should be strictly observed, By disobeying them we run agreat risk. While the commandments of men have been destroyed or ignored, these commandments, de- livered to Moses on Mount Sinat, have been made the foundation of the laws of all lands, Though they may have often changed the law, they have never denied the unity of God. No Jew will worship another God, nor will he worship idols. And yet there ts a sense in which we all worship tdois of some sort. Our fathers, while waiting for the law, with the re- Mmembrance of God’s great and gracious dellve ances fresh before them, made a golden calf and fell down betore it. WE HAVE OUR GOLDEN CALVES, too, which we worship, every one in the chambers of his own heart. The poor have their idols as well as the rich, But we should never forget that the Lord our God is one Lord, and that there is none else beside Him. Mr, Isaacs offered a few remarks, in closing, to a youth who had been admitted to the Mitza. He urged him to love the Lord his God witn all bis heart, and to honor his father and mother, that nis days might be long in the land which the Lord his God should give him, And he must never forget that unto him it was shewed that he might know that the Lord He is God, and that there is none else beside Him. Mr. Isaacs closed with a fervent prayer for the peace and prosperity of Isracl and the coming of the Messiah among men. fs _ SALES AT AUCTION, Bs AT AUCTION, ROBERT SOMERVILLE will sell by auction, on Monday and Tuesday, 17th and 18th insts., at the Somerville Gallery, #2 Fiith avenue, ti valuable stock ot fine Oil’ Paintings belon| Williains & Everett, of Boston, who, in consed late c of their city, have determined to dis- e ax above, at the Somerville Gallery ,where they are now on biti A™ ree.
