PLYMOUTH PRAYER MEETING The attendance at Plymouth prayer meeting last evening was a very large increase over that of the two previous weeks, every available place being occupied. Belore the services Mr. Beecher said:—Tnis has been a week set apart by the Christian Church for prayer for the conversion of the world, and the week has been divided up and @ different topic assigned to each day; and you will remember in your supplications that the sub- ject for supplication to-day is, “The revival of re- ligion in our land and all Jands.” Brother Charles Morton and Professor Sprague each prayed, giv- ing the specified subject due attention. After a bymn, Mr. Beecher said:—The two ex- tremes of opinions in respect to revivals of re- ligion are alike incorrect and mischievous, There are those on the one side who suppose that re. vivals of religion are mere paroxysms of artificial enthusiasm, by which 1s meant that kind of enthu- siasm which 1s gotten up by the definite application of visible influences, and not in any proper sense divine; that tbey have no basis in philosophy; that communities are drawn up, a8 the sea is by strong winds into waves, that pass away, leaving things as they were before. That is one extreme and a mistaken one. The other is where men look on revivais as the only method of spreading the Gospel, and largely men think of revivals of religion alter a pattern of one ip which they have engaged. . 1 regard revivals as just as much provided for in nature as human nature, as society, as any Other organization, be- cause they follow irom the application of known laws, and takes nothing from its sacredness; because I preach the truth and it 1s taken im according to the capscity of eacn hearer, does it follow that itis not divine? When I preach of the love of God and 1t ts received according to the minds gtven by God, 1s it any less sacred and divine because it acts through natural causes? That isan idea that has prevailed in ig- morance bot cannot prevail in thisday. But ve- cause these states we cali revivals of religion are produceable by natural causes, being so produced can they contain the divine spirit? I don’t hest- tate to say to any man that revivals are like crops, so 1s everything inthe world. There is nothing worth having that is not got by way of work. We use the proper cause to produce the | desired effest. Now whatcan be called a revival of religion’ There are three elements:—¥First, itis au intensification of moral ana social feelings; second, it is emotional and moral sentiment at work in & great any minds—these are the two that We can understand; third, is that the minds of men are opened in this way, they are brought together ina iervor common to many, and are open to DIVINE INFLUENCES in a way that they are not at other times, it seems a special form of the spirit. Lf you let grasa grow untouched there 1s just so much sunligot available, but uf you plough deep and expose it to the sun it absorbs five times as much sun as be- fore. Now there are conditions of tue human mind in which the Divine spirit 1s co-ordinate and works with duplex power, and when you bring men to- gether there is a power comes down from on high such he do not have at other times. This is what [ understand by revivals. As long as they are the Operations of the human mind—oi the human intelligence and Uy ae pagent Mel be of every degree of excellence; they will be of the lowest jorm and rise as men’s intelligence rises. The lowest forms will be paroxysmal naturally. Such revivals are invested more or less with the exces- sive phenomena that may be all cleared away without affecting the central element. These re- vivals are not, on the whole, to be desired, and yet they are immeasurably better than LETHARGY AND UNBELIEP, As communities grow more and more in moral truth all these violent and agonizing forme of re- vival tend to conse, and they beeome quieter, deeper and more effectuai; and in tne improve- meut of the type comes an improvement in the re- vivals, till you come to an average state so high that it becomes # continual revival in the Churcn. Yes, some say, “That is the style, and we won't have anything till we get that.’ Suppose | see an overcoat, well made, warm, Juxurious, and I say, that 18 the style of coat for a gentleman, and there is @ rough roundabout or pea jacket. I know it is greatly inferior, bat I wou rawer have that than shiver, I wonld take an army blanket ratner than shiver in the cold. Therefore, I say that the lowest forms, wows they have mapy drawbacks, are unspeak- ably better thah noth{ng. Some ask why we do not seek a quieter method, by education, by teaching men how to care for themseives. We shoud. This world is & whole. The Church is not the oniy method. He uses schools and colleges, and all institutions. The Church stands among them, it is one of God’s m ngers. But then, why seek tiisway? There area ren many things men can do, when under the influence of this common tide, which at other times could not be done atali. Do you suppose this late great contest would have beea carried on but Jor @ sense Oo! patriotism? Who supposed that that firat gun fired at Samter would bave torned abont those who had been in opposition to the South? It was not twenty-four hours before men were lifted out of their old opinions, Old Presby- terlan elders who would hardly dare to walk across the street on Sunday, stood on tne corners and talked politics openly on Sunday. (Langnter.) We see the advantage of unity of feeling; we see it in War, in politics, in fashion ; it is a greater thing to see it in religion. Once in a while the Commis sioners “flush” our sewers and cleanse them all out, Well, communities need flushing once ina while and afterwards jor years the average ten- dency may be raised. After Mr. Beecher had finished Dr.. Edward Beecher gave a few remarks tending to show that no man jeads an individual life; that all are de- pendent on some circie or community. DEATH OF A WOMAN. ALLEGATIONS AGAINST A PHYSICIAN. Mr. Brandenbdergh, living at No. 67 Broome Street, yesterday afternoon reported to Coroner Croker that his wife Mary, twenty-five years of age, had died after giving birth to acnild. He re- flected severely upon tne professional conduct of | one of the attending physictans, and seemed w think that his moce oi treatment amounted a most to malpractice. The matver will receive due | attention irom the Goraner. TILTON VS.BEECHER Fifth Day of the Great Scandal Suit. REVISING. THE JURY. Four Men Challenged and Two Excused. Six New Jurors Accepted by Counsel. The Case To Be Formally Opened on Monday. A jury was obtained on Thursday nignt in the Buit of Tilton va. Beecher. It was revised three times and made whole yesterday. Over this jury 8 contest was made, in a few cases excitedly, and forsome apparent advantage in the man to one side or the other. Some very wortiless material was nearly obtained by the avidity of some on the panel to be accepted, eltner for occupation, cu- Thosity or the per diem. Jurymen are as often born as made, To answer the requisites of two corps of keen, incisive lawyers requires, above all, that & man stould have something sincere about him, Each side inthe case being entitled to two peremptory challenges, they proceeded at the outset yesterday to exercise their privileges, and after securing four new jurors the counsel held a consultation about twoof the twelve who were in the tox in the morning, and by mutual arrange- ment both were excused and their places filled, go that alter getting rid of six men they succeeded in completing the jury after all. Thus a week bas been expended in fussing over the Judge who should try the case and in picking @ jury. ‘The lawyers seemed relieved yesterday that they could now have rest until Monday, when wey grapple with the evidence, Roger A. Pryor has been made to do consider- able work already, particularly in cross-examina- tions. He and Mr, Evarts have the quaintest faces in sight. Both are bland, somewhat self-conscious men, quite diferentin age and perhaps culture, although Mr. Pryor has been, if not a student, a good miacellancous reader. Evarts’ slim face, with excess of characteristics compressed inéo it, 1s well known. Mr. Pryor bas a long head, very broad at the temples, and long, black hair, swept straight be- hind his ears affd turned under at the end. His profile is not harmonious and his underlp largely projects beyond the upper. His nose ts combative and prominent, Great purpose is expressed by his countenance; the eyes are wide apart, darkish gray and glittering, and he fully answers to the ideal of the duelling editor and politician he once was, Hehasavery healthy, ruddy skin, and is dressed in blue cloth. His body is wiry and active. His manners are conciliatory and genteel, even flatcering. Mr. Pryor is a man of patience and enterprise, and has stood firm through the dim. calt years of waiting lor practice in @ great city where he came as a stranger. Tae mysterious creature of tne trial ts Judge Porter. He sits back and looks in comical gran- deur at the spectacle, Mr. Shearman, in the meantime, 18 putting nis head through @ cord of law books and is industrious asa bee. Mr. Hill, the junior counsel, keeps his highly animated black eyes and Napoleonic head reaay for the great work before him. Judge Fullerton 1s @ stout man, of florid com- plexion and judicial bearing. Perhaps no person in the whole array of counsel has more the quiet, mind-reading tace and carriage of @ counsellor of long practice and disciplined facuities. He con- fers very little, rises with his eyegiass in his hand, and interrogates, in a cogent, manly way Mr. Evarts, speaking with no more precision and with even less ease, There is listie of the petti- Jogger in Fullerton’s method, but he 18 said to be capable, in the height of a trial, of badgering a witness unmercifully, turning out his mind like a reticule. He 1s expected to cross-examine Mr. Beecher with the whole ingenuity of which he is capable, being a devotee to practice and carrying his full talent to every case. His iight blue eyes, relieved by reddish flaxen mustache, brows and hair, look allover a juryman’s face, searchingly and expansively, and still not witn feeling any more than if be opened his door to look out ear- nestly at the weather. ‘The Court sat at eleven o’clock.
