Mr. Beecher was in & critical mood yesterday morning. Among the notices on his desk he picked up one announcing @ concert in bis meet- ing house for the “Brooklyn Maternity.” Itstated that “the following guited artists were to appear.” “Now,” said the parson, ‘that’s tautology. To say one is an artist isto say he is giited. If not gilted he 1s no artist.” Then, going on, he read, “the Swedish singers, @ aouble quartet of mule woices.” “Well,” said be, ‘male voices may be the voices of lions or bulls, but from the connece tion Linfer these are men’s voices.” A lady was named as a “giited violinist,” and tere was gnother “gilted”’ in the list. So he concluded the Motice by saying that at half-past seven o’ciock the “giltea” doors would open, and in spite | be be. | ef the folly of tue advertisement Meved it would be an excellent concert tor a most worthy chanty. Having read the thirteenth chapter of Romans, in which the Apostie calls love tne fulfing’ of the law, he mamed as his text Luke xvii., 21. “fhe kingdom of God is within you,” Tais same declaration runs through the New Testament, In other forms of expression the same truth is found in the Old estament; but the new is full of this constantly fepeated teaching that men’s characters lie in | their inward individual dispositions, not in exter- mal circumstances or organization. The Saviour and his disciples dwell much on this as a funda- mental principle o! spiritual ite, placing peculiar Stress upon it. The kingdom of God is not meat aud drink, not sacrificai service, says the Master, but it is righteousness, peace, joy in the Holy Ghost, He that has these right moral conditions is mamed as acceptable to God. It is notil he belongs to the right sect, and is orthodox, but it he loves God and his iellow man be is assured of accept- ance and approval. Ihe spiritual kingdom isa moral iorce—the living iorce of a loving beart. That is the power 0: the kingdom of God. | nope A$ resides in tbe church, but no association of good men is necessary to development oi the kingdom, IT EXISTS IN INDIVIDUAL CHARACTER, The New Testament, without specifically statin, the fact, shiited the cenrral point o1 autuority and Fresponsitility, in the Hebrew cconomy the lather ‘Was the head of the house, the tamily, of the wile, Of tite child, Ifhe was gullty the 1amuly must suf- fer with him and for his uffences. su, too, Was it under Roman rule. But the words of Christ and the apostics place the Individual above even the family and all organizations or associations. They substitute the indiviaual as the seat of responsibil- ity. So, then, every one shail give account of himsels, No one has @ right to stand in anotner’s way. In this we have iuil assurance of personal liberty of opinion and action and of individual responsibility. We are not thought of by God as members oO: families or churches, put as each the representative o1 tne Kingdom. Moral character does not exist by nature. itis set up in each per- son’s heart by lis own volition, subject to instruc- tion and influonce. We have been taught that we gre nainrally siniul; that we inherit sin from our first parents: tnat we fell with Adam. By na- ture We are not worthy. We are BORN EMPTY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, @s we are empty of sili Or Muscular force, We are at first a bunuie of emptiness—empty of walking, Of geograpliy, of mathematics, of music and of art.

Hach man is to develop for himself out of these natural guts, which all share, tis own character and spirit- ual life. We all kuow how to develop manual Bkill or intellectual ability.

We do not come to this by chance or guit, but by choice and by slow growth, None are born absolutely good, though some are by birth better than others, None are born endowed with this element of love, and begins in the soul in the seed form, needing time and growth through culture.

REVIEW OF THE MARKETS. WALL STREET, SunDey, April 12, iva. } A review of the financial and commercial events of the past week docs not present many encour- aging features. There bas been little or no im- | provement in general business, Foreign merchan- dise was dull and unsettled in values, and, al- though there were during the week a considerable number of country purchasers in the city, the general testimony of jobbers is to the effect that Sales bave been limited in amount and confined chiefly to those articles absolutely necessary for immediate consumption, THE GULD MARKET. Gold vibrated between 1133; as the lowest and 13% as the highest price of the week, a fair aver- | age being 11334 a 1185,, at which the market closed. | Speculators in the room generally anticipate higher prices, whatever may be tue resuit of the to make it an additional ornament to the Eastern District of the “City of Churches.” | i¢ will seat 1,000 persons, and its | cost, inclading the price of lots upon which a | chapel is to be erected, was about $60,900, nearly | all of which has been already subscribed. The | auditorium is sixty-e.ght feet long and sixty wide ; the slightly arched ceiling is frescoed in imitation of aribbed roof, in which are two circles of gas jets with ventilating reflectors, The walls are work is of black walnut. The carpets are of er!m- son and garnet, the pew cushions of drab, tufted with crimson, and the furniture of the platiorm upholstered with crimson satin, a* beuutuul rose window, surmouoting an arched window twenty leet in height, ornaments the front o1 tne editice. in the year of the church are rooms for the church committees, singers and @ pastor's study, which are comiortaoly and tasteiully turnished. ‘The organ, which is oue of the finest in Brooklyn, 1s m the rear oi the pulpit; and the iront of itis handsomeiy decorated with forty-one * aking?

Chapin, oi New York, proceeded to based upon the twenty-iourtn verse of the fourth chapter of Jonn:—“God 18 a spfrit, and they that worship hun must worsatp tum in spirit and io truth.” He con- Rev. ship where tuey could express their own faith according to the light of their conscieuces and wor- ship the Father 10 spirit and im truth, and which also was expressive of their taith in Christ and, comprehensiveness of God’s love, and the result of His worship bore the name “All souls.’? He hoped they mignt find @ shelter for their de- youtest affection; that they mignt grow daily in knowledge and grace, and come nearer to that perfection which Christ had set forth as the high- es: standard and expression of all souls. In the discourse he was about to deliver he propoged to say something concerning the aspects o1 Christian- Ity in the present time. 0 in all ages and con- ditions was a religious being, and ideas concern- ing religion lay at the 1oundation of human lite. THR RELIGIOUS CHARACTER and tendency of our age could not be regarded as @ subject secondary importance. ‘They might not seem to interest us, but in reulity they touched ug more closely than anything else. ‘The speaker Ma:ntained that although @ spirit of wordliness prevailed this was not an irreligious age. This was a scicutifie age, and instead of ignorance and religious faith vetng most in accord with each other the converse of that was true, for all genuine culture and all positive advancement il know- ledge qucken apd render more imperative re- ligious thougut. If man were only a material pro- duct, ike @ wayside Weed he was of very little but there was a tribunal above nature to which the human soul appealed, and the greatest fact that science untolded ia our day was not the greatness of nature, but the | greatnesa of mind. ‘The deepest movement of thougbt im the present age was not toward the rejection of all iaith, but towards the realization of the genuine substance of faith, Men im our day were s0ilvitous to grasp realities and facts, In regara to the great facts of existence he (Dr. Chapin) was of the opinion that this was a time of | earnest Movement, and that men were never | more interested than now in religious questions, ‘Lhe inteliectnal endeavor of the age was TO CONSTRUCT, NOT TO PULL DOWN, and he was free to say that there were men in the Church ot England, denounced by the majority, who, tor Christianity and vital religion, were ac- comphehing a conservative work, in considering the religious tendencies of the age the speaker said | that the irrepressible soul ol man sought to find the sources trom whicii all those things concerning the futare sprang. The conclusion was that spirit, not matter, Was the ultimate tact, the governing ower of the universe. Christ declared that God 4 @ spirit, and the moral and religious conclusion was that God should be worshipped in spirit and in truth. In our day religion was conceived in the spirit rather thai in the letter; in substance Tather than in form. The religious tendency of the age is toward a comprehensive liberalism and agenuine catholicism, A man’s religious belief was to be injerred from the expression of his life. ‘True worship was true service, the imitation of him who went about doing good. Brief addresses were delivered by Rev. J. M. Puliman, Professor | Tomlinson, of Ohio, dnd Rev, S.A. Camp. Rev. Mr. Gunnison condneted the dedication services and the congregation made the responses, Kev. £. C. Sweetser made the prayer of dedication, Rey. J. M. Pullman, of New York, preached an eloquent sermon in the evening. 8T, JOHN'S CHAPEL, Confirnmiation Address by Bishop Pottcr. At the usual morning services, the. rector, Rev. Dr. Weston, was assisted by the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix, Rey. Mr. Cook and Rey, Mr, Mills, The Right Rey. Bishop Potter administered the rite of con- firmation to a class of 100 candidates, consisting of a few adults and many youths, irom twelve to sixteen years. ‘Tne girls were in the usual ceremonial dress of while muslin with flowers in the hair, looking devout in their simplicity ana sedate as the occasion warranted, During the singing of the Fighty-ninth hymn, Oh Happy Day that Stays my Choice,” the candidates presented themselves at the altar. At the conclusion the Bishop made a short and effective address, as fol- lows: “Dearly beloved, you have in the last ew Weeks passed though scenes ii tone church com- memorative of the Most solemn and tmportant events the world has ever witnessed in the pas- sion and death of our Lord, and bis glorious resurrection, You have eNperienced the truth = of His great) expiation for our sins on the cross in bringing you and me re- demption. With His blood our Saviour has pur- chased for us salvation, For this privilege we in our bodily presence have become members of His Church, In this honor we are equals beiore the world, All meet on one common level alike. Social distinctions here are forgotten, The identical words which have just been pronounced with the laying on of hands over you have been pronounced wiike over the greatest sovereigns, pontifls, states- Men, scholars and iumblest members of the com- munity. As you lave vowed to be faithful to your duties and His commands, so have they. these identical words are uttered at all the rites of the Chureh—by your sponsors, at your baptism, in the bonds of Matrimony, in the last | sad committal fo the earth, im “ashes to ashe: dust to dust,’? when we fade trom | sight forever. £ agree with St. Paul in his injune- tion to preserve the sanctity of the body in the tise of pure water—Hebrews X., 22.—as a help to our saivation, and | enjom it upon you to do like- wise. We are all subject to change—some for the petter, others for the worse. The vicissitudes of jue are apt to excite despondency and lessen our saith, 1 believe that many of the toils whicu seem our greatest trials bring to us greatest good. Let not your Jaith be shaken by them. In all scenes, sn ail times look upwards to the great Anchor—our hope im the cross, to win the crown. As your light shines before men so shall you re- fect. honor upon your profession. Let your as- sociations be with the sons of God, Be faithtal in all things, Remember the last words of Christ to is discipies, ‘Peace I leave with you, peace | give unto you,’’ ‘The music, in charge of Mr. Horsley, the organist, was admirably rendered by @ chojr of twenty-two voices pending action of Cougress, ana basing their ex- Pectation chiefly upon the fact that the want of a fixed policy by that body and its issue of more cur- rency will tend not only to weaken the public credit but the faith of European investors in American securities, the result of which may be a return of some of these securities to the United States, They predict a decline, especially in some of the railroad bonds placed abroad, when it shall be understood that they represent largely diminished earnings, and a consequent sympathetic decline in our own stock market, which, as is claimed, will tend to stiffen the price of gold. . The fore- going are, of course, mere theories, but they tend in @ measure to illustrate the temper of this mar- ket and the promptness with which it may respond tothe most delicate symptems of financial doubt at home or abroad.

The foreign commerce of the port for the week Was:—General merchandise imports, including ary goods, $11,278,078; produce exports, $4,742,056, and specie exports, $596,914. The total mer- chandise imports since January 1 this year are $121,670,692, against $127,175,971 last year, and $123,024,055 in 1872, The votal exports of produce since January 1 are $73,804,997, against $69,398,543 last year aud $56,611,421 in 1872, The total exports $15,689,913 last year and $6,606,634 in 1872. THE MONEY MARKET during the week showed no material change from | the easy condition heretofore reported. The offerings on cailloans were abundant at4 and 5 per cent, with exceptional and temporary ex- tremes of 3 and 7 per cent, and good mercantile Paper was discounted at 534 and 7 per cent. Money is returning from its use in New England, and the presumption is that there will be an abundant supply during the summer for all the wants of trade and speculation, Foreign ex- changes have been quiet and uniform, and the variation of rates but slight. Greenbacks con- tinue worth about 88 cents on the dollar. THE BANK STATRMENT reported in this colamn yesterday shows a dec- crease in the total reserve of $210,200 specie and $1,402,300 legal tenders, or an aggregate of $1,619,500. The liabilities were increased during the week by $1,200,300 of deposits, In loans there was an expansion of $2,552,600. The excess over 25 per cent legal reserve is now $18,080,825, or a de- crease during the week of $1,917,875. The total ous- standing loans amount to $293,666,300.

Operators contented themselves with small profits and quick returns rather than launch upon @ sea Of speculation subject to hourly dis- turvance by the short-sighted policy of that so- called representative boay, Congress. They also begin to realize that other intluences are at work than those which spring from prospective inflation ofthe currency. Just as the produce market is affected by dulness in grain, and the cotton and other markets by causes regulating supply and demand, so is Wall street specially responsive to the changes that occur im the various railroad securities of the country, which constitute the basis of its transactions. Seventeen railway com- of receipts during that time of $883,263. Two weeks ago there was an attempt to rally from the prevailing depression on the strength of Congres- sional tunkering, and the effort may be repeated during the present week; but since March 27 the | decline has been steady.

Though | there is very little doubt that it will become a law, yet it will be invested with @ degree of uncer- tainity until the signature of the Executive is affixed or the bill vetoed, in view of which buyer and seller alike prefer to waita little. There have been some speculative ventures based upon the Probabilities of the future, but as a general rule trade languishes, and even the boldest | among the speculators hesitate about making or 01 specie since January 1 are $9,045,880, against | accepting contracts having long to run. Inflation seems to be the order of the day on every hand, however, but in many cases the action of Con- gress on the inflation bill was discounted rome time | since, The volume ot legitimate business transactions during last week was rather small. Dry goods were in moderate request at the best, while in many depart- ments the trade was emphatically dull. The bulk of the hardware business is over for the spring, while furtner downtown among the grocers, produce dealers, &c., business has been dull and unpromising. Atthe Produce Exchange business in flour, wheat, firm, and the markets were characterized by a greater degree of firmness—transactions for both imme- diate and forward delivery having been at better Prices, Pork and tard were dealt tn with greater free- domi also, and almost every successive day brought a further enhancement in values. On Saturday, at the Produce £xchange, business sowed # iair auuregate. Flour was in demaid and firm. Wheat showed an im: provement of lc. per bushel, but closed tame at the ad- vance. Corn was in good demand at about steady figures. The transactions in oats were liberal at advanced prices. Barley and rye were negleeted. Pork was quict but about steady.” Lard was firmer, but also quiet. Sugar was in demand and firm, but other groceries were quict, Cotton was quict at unchanged prices for lots on th “spot” and aabade easier for “tutures.”” Petroleum was juict but steadier. Naval stores were dull bat not essen- ally changed in value. Whiskey closed about steady. Corrox.—The market tor spot cotton was dull and values to'an extent nominal. For future delivery only a limited business was consummated, at @ decline of 1-160. perib We quote; . Uplands. Alabama, N. Orleans, Teras, Ordinary.. +208 13 A 13.
