HEP- WoRTH. ‘The usual large congregation assembled in the Church ofthe Disciples yesteruay morning, Mr. Hepworth preached 2 very earnest and eioquent sermon, after which he exnorted his people to come forward and help in the work of bringing souls invo the Churenb, in a manner indicating that will, 9—O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but 1D me is thine help.” lLhave been greatiy inter- ested during the past few weeks in the description of man, his present condition and future pros- pects, as afforded by the Scripture on one hand aud by the ordinary judgment of mankind on the orner, Aud need. not say that I have been greatly surprised to find that both sources of information lead to precisely the same results and deal very largely m thesame statement of facts. The Bibleis the embodiment of belp/ulnesg and this implies the heed of succor. All through the Old Testament smd the New are promises given by God, ana yet ho promise would have been given unless we had stood in utmost need of supernatural, miraculous aid. Promises of nelp such as those given to us are mot uttered in the ears of angels; they are beard alone by THOSE WHO ARE LOST and cannot of themselves find their way imto the light. Iaiscover throughout the Bible one kind of testimony, to this eflect—that you and land al) the generations of mankind have gone far astray from the original bome wherein we were born, and beneath whose rcof tor a tme fe were 80 bappy. We have gone beyond the reach of those who have loved ut—have gone be- yomd the sight of the paternal roo}; we know not whieh way to turn, and we shall inevitably perlah Dunless some aid outside of ourselves reciaims us. ‘Again, we are represented as tnough we had talien imto a Geep pit, and, though we try ever so Zewious:y to climb up its slippery sides, it is in vain, ad unless we are velped we sail lie there till We die, Then once more, we are likened to 1hos® caught im anet, entangled, and the more we strugele the more hopeless our case becomes—we ure im the power of an evil has been on the watcn for us, and has caught us.

Terry yesterday morning, in the Eighteenth street Methodist Episcopal church, preached @ very sensational sermon witn the | above title, He commenced by saying that, tn re- | gard to the doctrine of infaliibility claimed for the Pope of Rome, it was an almost direct assumption | of the powers of Carist, St, John telly us 1a bis | time there were many anti-Carists, and to-day his | words would also hold good. Anybody who keeps his eyes open wi!l discover that in our own coun- try Romanism nas become a very powerful polii- calelement. There are recent movements which make the discussion of this question peculiarly appropriate now. The recent appointment of AN AMERICAN CARDINAL (a Carainal beiag the next officer in dignity to the Pope), the controversy in London between Mr. | Gladstone and the Roman prelates in that city, and the question of parochial schools, make it necessity to examine the claims of Catholicism. We all hold this is a free country, and free speech is guaranteed to every American citizen, andif Methodism, Presbyterianism or any other “ism’? aMiiated with politics, 1 hold that Romanism would bave a right to discués them, and even apply opprobrious epithets in @enunciation, with- | out attaching to persons any wilful wrong, Ro- munism is @ great ecclesiastical system, which attained its highest grandeur, gioiy and power in the dark Middle Ages, when the masses of the people were ignorant and superstitious. A faith im the iufaiiibility ef the Pope when he speaks ex cathedra as the Viear of Unrist, the successor of bl. Peter, is one belies; that he is supposed to nave absolute temporal power is another. Five or six hundred years ago bis words made KINGS AND PRINCES TREMBLE. The Catholics accept the Scriptures, with the old Apocry pba attacheg, but ds it is a common maxim ‘With them that the judgments of men are egring, ine mialiible word oi the Pope—iu interpretin: the Seriptures—is taken betore the Word of Go itself, (fhe worship of the saints comes in as an- other part of the system, especially the adoration oi the Virgin Mary.

William Paul Costigan. The music Was of tue usually high order. Among the gems rendered were the “Domine Deu a tenor solo, and the “Qai tollis,’, a dust irom Rossini’s “Messe Solennelle.” The rendering of these se- lections by Mme. Brignoli, Mile. Manter and Mr. Komeyne, supported by the effective accompani- | ment playing of the organist, Air. Daniortu, wav not merely creditable, but even provocative of piety. Inthe aiternoon, at vespers, Lambilloti's “Regina Oil” and Nava’s “Tamtum Ergo” were | | # | Yesterday being the feast of the ivangelist St. | Mark Dr. McGlynn took as his text the Gospel— | Luke x., 1-0—which the Uhurch appoints to be read | On that day, and delivered an instructive discourse on the divine mission to preach. We are told that | after Our Lord had come from Galilee into Judea He selected seventy-two disciples and ordered them to goin tvos to prepare the way for Kim in those places which He was about to honor by His pres- euce. Insending them He does not conceal from them the vastness of the work, but tells them that “the harvest is indeed great, but the reapers few,” nor the dangers to which they would be exposed; for He warns then that He sends them as “LAMBS AMONG WOLVES," In giving them instructions as to how ther were to journey from city to city and place to place He admonishes tuem to piace thelr reliance for sap- Po) on tie provicence of God and the charity of he people, He even telis them the mde of saiu- tation they must use on entering & house;—‘'Say Peace to tunis House.’ What & beautiful form of Salutation! Now pregnant with every good wish! But ne —lf the son of peace (oharity) be there, your peace Will rest upon it, but if not it retarn to you.” No more simple and expres- Sive exposition of the necessity Of that virtue, by Which we love God above all things and our neign- bors as ourselves lor His sake, could ve given. Uur divine Lora admonisnes not only the preach- ‘sof His word tobe filed With clarity, but to communicate it to all peoples, adding, Uhat if the pearers be BO. imbued With thas spiri the prayer of the preaener Will be in vain. He Goes not say that the preacher shall not receive Dis reward; on tho contrary tte inti that te Spirlt shail retura to warded 1 properties to i | have been supplanted by his labor and his work.

MASONIC TEMPLE. LOOSE THINKING AND LOOSE LIVING—SEZBEMON BY REY. 0. B. FROTHINGHAM. The Rey, 0. B. Frothiagham's subject of dis- course was “Loose Thinking and Loose Living.” His sermon was an elaborate plea for earnest, serious thought, as opposed to idle aeceptation of empty forms and estabiished creeds. He said, in substance, that there is any more immorality or looseness of thinking and living now than has been in the past may well be denied, but it is undoubtedly true that many of the deficiencies of modern life are to be ascribed to careless, loose thought. The most beautiful, the noblest, feelings of men, heightened by thought, relapse again into sentimentality, and ultimately into bestiality. There is no doubt that the prevailing tendency among the masses of mankind is backward and downward, Noble char- acters may be ound in all ages and countries; not alone in Christendom, but outside it, There are men and women who, unwatched and un- taught, do the noble and true; they could not do otherwise, But take the average of mankind, is it not easier for them to he than to teil the truth—to do wrong than to do right? This 1s not due to what i: called “the innate depravity ol man,” but it is the animal still lingering in hu- manity, Tuereiore itis that when unrestrained by thougnt their tendency is downward, back- ward. Thoughtless people are almost always mischievous people, PAST AND PRESENT. Looseness of thought results in looseness of liv. ing, Who, however, is to tell what looseness of thought is? The Romanist, the Calvinist, the Universalist, the Uniiarian—they ali entertain dli- ferent views of rignt thinking. Upon all questions that pertam to the spiritual nature of men, most uifferent opinions are given. ‘These are but cliques Wno pretend to ebjoy the exclusive knowledge of right thinking, and the person Who says that everbody 1 ditfering with him is @ loose ‘thinker 18 a loose thinker himself. And yet, jouse thinking is undoubtedly one ofthe characteristics of modern times.

What wonld be more immoral? People would say what becomes of conscience, of individual right? Ah, it ali depends as to whether this doctrine is neld by thought or by mere tradition. Among the Turks it resulted in mere passive submission. Was it so withthe Arabs? Kead the htstory of Mo- hammed and how, under the impulse of this great doctrine, they swept away the empires of Europe. The HOguenots of France were the strictest pre- destinarians, and yet they were noble, swect- minded, sacrificing men. Cromwell and his fellows Were fatalists, and so were the men who built up | New England. They ielt that their wiiis but echved the divine will and that they must live up to that mighty creed, sitting once in the Academy of Music, I observed at the ceillug some small baloons that had probably escaped from the hands of children. As the barmonies deepened these bubbles obeyed the waves of sound, and grouped themselves in accord with its decree: iritual powers of man,.when stru this y dogma, grogp themselves in obedience to its true comman UNIVERSAL SALVATION. Universalism taught the salvation of évery man. It was claimed that man was but a football of God, aud that the thief, the murderer, the pigate 80 and debauchee were all but man, puppets of God, playing thelr — ordere parts, What, will you say, could be more baueiul thau such a doctrine?

PATRICK’S CATHEDRAL THE CHURCH EVERLASTING--SERMON BY THE REY. FATHER REARDON, OF ST. BERNARD'S. At the high mass services yesterday Rev. Father Reardon, of St. Bernard’s church, in this city, preached the sermon, and the mass was sung by the Rey. Father Kane. Father Quinn, the Vicar General, at the close of the mass referred to the grand ceremonies that are to take place in the Cathedra! to-morrow (Tuesday). He said that the demand for tickets had been immense, and that although every effort had been made to satisfy the “claims”? of every one who had applied for a ticket, there were of course a great many persons Who would have to be disappointed. He said that a large number of the applicants were non-Catho- lies, and tnat if there had been 10,000 tickets more than there actually were they could hive been disposed of “at saie”’ toa good advantage, and he humorously remarked (hat it was a great pity that tos eagerness to witness the ceremonies had not been taken advaptage of in order to help some charitable object. He said that the mere ceremony of imposing the berretta would occupy | but a quarter of an hour or so, and that the pew hoiders who could not get tickets should bear in amind that the ceremony was one in which the parish of St. Patrick’s was not the only parisn in- verested, It concerned the Catholics oF the entire city, and be hoped, therefore, that those wno could not get Seats would look at the matter in | that ligne. Father Reardon's sermon was brief. It was an argument to show that the Catuolic Church to-day Was the great bulwark, as she had always been, against immorality and heretical teachings.

PLYMOUTH CHURCH. SORROW AS A SOLACE IN LIFE AND A GUIDE TO AN ETERNITY OF HAPPINESS—SERMON OF REV. H. W. BEECHER. Plymouth church was thronged to its utmost capacity yesterday forenoon by the usual congre- gation in attendance. Mr. Beecher appeared in excellent health, voice and felicitous manner at the pulpit desk, and the church choir and mem- bers sung the psalms given out with clearness and harmonious precision, The pastor offered an elo- quent and lengthy prayer to the throne of divine grace, beseeching a coutinuance of mercy, support gnd comiort irom the Supreme Ruler ot the uni- verse for all present, for those who were absent, lor those who were in temptation or danger, for the police, magistrates, the President and all leg- islators, and, in One, for the diffusion of the spirit of divive love among all the nations and peoples of the earth, that all may tend to the honor and glory of God, A collection was then taken up in aid of the ‘American Seamen’s Friend Society, and Mr. Beecher asked for liberality among the contributors, | While the money was flowing into the baskets which were circulated he said he had not the con- fidence that the further request he was about to make would be so cheerfully acceded to, Hd said it had always been the habit to consider the first Sabbatli of May as a special occasion in that charch, During the past year this church had been in fire and in flood; but there had been a witness in their behalf, in the increased attendance at the Sabbath school and at the Mission, of the presenee of the Divine Spirit. The proof of the presence of Divine grace among them during the past year would be manifested When it Was known that on Sunda, next they would receive over one hundred ne members into the fold of Plymouth church. lie mentioned this fact in honor and praise of the Creator who preserved his people, and in evidence of the mercy to them.

Mr. Beecher then read a list of thirty appli- cants for admission for membership of the church, Jollowed by @ list of seventy-five persons who had made protessstons 01 faita. The text of the sermon was from the Second Epistie of St. Paul to the Corinthians, i, 3, 4 and t—Blessed be God, even the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of mercies, ana the Gd of ali comlort; who comiorteta us in ali our trib lation, that may be to which are in any trouble, by t For as | the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our con- with We ourselves are comlorted of God. | solation also aboundeth by Christ.’ “For godiy | sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be | | repented o1; but the sorrow of tue world worketh | aeatn.”?

Bishops are the judges of true and false doctrine, and judges of what is right im the aiscipline of toe Church, It is the offlce of the bishops to watch over the education of youth and especially of cam didates for the sacred ministry, to admit the worthy and reject the unworthy, to appoint pas tors of souls. It is to the bishops alone that the priests are amenable for all things relating to their sacerdotal functions. 1t 1s the duty of bish- Ops to uphold the good pastors of souls and to sus tain them in their struggle with the world; to re- prove, exhort and even to remove from the sacred ministry, independently of any civil government, Priests who become unworthy of their position, Your Lordships have before your eyes what has unhappily befallen the Church in Eogland, where persecutions caused first schism and then hereay and the degradation of tne clergy ana profanation o1 sacred things. Your faithiul people, thank God, are not prepared to receive an order of things totally at variance witn the institations of Christ. We deeply sympathize with them, de prived as they are, by the iniquity of a tyranulcal government, of their true and legitimate pastors, but we glory in the Ormacss and faith with which they condemn the enactments of their despotic rulers, which, having no binding power (because Rot founded upon justice and truh), refuse even gacted things from sacrilegious and polluted bands. We admire your devotea clergy, who, though tneir chief pastors are struck in your sacred persons and vast numbers of themselves thrown into prisons for duty and conscience: ke, fre sti'l neither overcome nor even dispersed, but glory in their sufferings for Chiist’s sake, We are delighted to learn that our Holy Father, to mark bis appreciation of your heroic suffer ngs for the faith, has been pleased to raise to the most eminent dignity of Cardinal one of your venerable body, the illustrious Archbishop of Posen, sull ia chains. Courage, then, most reverend brothers and confessors of tie faith, the Catholic worte beholds you with admiration and glories in your firmness. Embracing you wita brotherly affecues and profound veneration, We are soar devoted brothers in Christ, t JOHN JOSEPH LYNCH, Archbishop of Toronto, + JOHN, Bishop of Londoa, + JOHN FRANCIS, Bishop of Tarepta, Vic.
