Notwithstanding the oppressivepess of the day yesterday the Church of the Disciples was well filleg, Alter the sermon the celevration of the Lord’s Supper was observed. The text was the twenty-fourth chapter of St. Luke, nineteenth verse—“Ang he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Conceraing Jesus of Naz- Breth, which was a prophet migity in deed and word before God and ail the people.” We may speak of Jesus, my dear friends, as the long looked lor, as the one longed for and prayed for, He was the answer to a people’s petition, as He was the fulfiment of tne promise of Jeho- vab. We can better understand the post- tion which He occupied in the Jewish econ- pmy by looking back for the promises God made througn the person of Moses. Watle Moses was looking forward to his reward in the future he at- ‘ered these words, whicu became a rich imoerit- ance, a precious legacy to the people:—**The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee 4 prophet trom the midst of thee; | will raise up @ prophet from thy people like unto thee, and | will put my wordsinto his mouth and he shall speak ali that { commana tim.” And upto the time of Malachi this long jooked for prophet had not appeared. The peopie of Israel bad ceased their wanderings and tad taken possesston of the green fleids of the Prom- jsea Land, and yet this great leader had not made his appearance. And every generation increased {m the intensity of their longing, till at last the long- ing included patriotisin and religion alike—it was ‘whe one thought of the people; and when the Mas- ter came at lust—the incarnate, prophetic Spirit, God with man, Emanuel—Johp was questioned | reads soncerning His mature and His mission. Bnd he coniessed and denied not, but contessed, “Iam not the Christ.” “What, tnen, art thou Elias?” ava he answered, am not.” ‘Art thou that prophet?” and ne answered “No.” The emphatic word in the text, Gear iriends, is the pronoun, ‘Art thou that prophet ?’ and in that pronoun was concentrated the longing of a thousand years. We readin St, Jobn, wixth chapter:—‘Th:n those wien, when Shey had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, "This 1s of a truth that prophet that should come ‘nto the worid.’” And again, in the seventh ehapter, alter another mira-le bad been periormed and the peopic bad aesra of it, they said, “of a $roth this 1s the Propet.” So the nistory of the whole Jewish race seems to culminate at Bethle- bem.

FIGHTING WITH SHADOWS—-SERMON BY BEV. 0, B, FROTHINGHAM. The Rev. O. B, Frotbingham preached yesterday morning on “Fighting with Snadows.”’? He based bis discourse for once on @ Scriptural text, quot- ing that part oftne Epistie to the Ephesians which alludes to human battling with evil spirits. ‘This doctrine of evil spirits living in the air is a very oid one, We find it among the Hecrew long before Christ, who believed in evil spirits dwelling in the chambers of the air.

They are related to huve been so thick thatif mortals nad only seen them they would nave been airaid to move for fear that they would tread upon them.

BEECHER ON THE CERTAINTY OF MENT FOR SIN. Long before Mr, Beecher threw his new light colored soft hat upon the Plymouth church plat- form yesterday morning every seat in tne great plain barn-like edifice was fliled, the doorways were patked, and a,deuse throng stood in the street vainly regretting that they had not been a few minutes earller even at the expense ofa cur- tailed breakfast. In deference to the neat the pastor had puton a white vest, though it was plainly apparent that he was suffering from the early stages of his usual summer infliction of hay Jever. After the usual organ voluntary by the veteran Jonn Zundel the services were epened by the Portuguese Hymn, Miss Lasar singing the Orst lines as soprano solo with very fine effect, the other portions being arranged for duets, trios and quartets, with Miss Holbrook as contralto, Mr, Hill, tenor and Mr. Camp, baritone, the full Plym- outh choir joining in the cnorus, under the ad- mirable leadership of Mr. Camp. Thougn every- body was crowded add hot, and Jresh air was scarce in spite 01 open doors and raised windows, this beautiful old anthem induced a thoroughly devotional spirit in the vest throng of worship- pers ana inclined all to join heartily with the pas- tor in a fervent invocation to the God of all Grace His blessing on the services of the | day. Judge Porter occupied @ prominent | MR. PUNISH- seat in the front row of the gallery, and listened through the sermon with rapt atten- | tion apd evident relish to tne telling ilinstrations and sirong positions assumed by Mts client. Among the usual notices read was one that the pulpit would be f.jed in the evening by a Baptist pastor whose church in Brooklyn bad been “‘ais- | jeliowshipped” by a vote of Its sister churches jor liberal views and practice Im reference to ad- mission to the Lord's Supper of those wno have not been baptized by immersion. This gave Mr, | Beecher an Opportunity tosay that no Cristian | ekurch | COULD BE PUT OUT | by an ecclesiastical vote; that the light of a true | | | Christian, of an earnest church, could not be ex- y any or all men’s endeavors, and giad to know that the church over that he w. | which his “dislellowshipped” Baptist brotner pre- Victor Hago s sided was. jor all the vote of exclusion, a church, and its members beloved be all. Mr. Beecher took his text from the second chapter of Romans, the assertion that “God will renaer unto every man according to bis deeds—to them woo by patient coutinnance im well doing seek for glory and honor and im- mortality, eteruai life. But uote toem that are contentions and do pot, obey the truth, indigna- uon and Wrain, tribuiation aod anguish, upon exery soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first and also to the Greek.” He deduced from tais text tne simple announcement whicb, put in the phiiosopoic language of this day, would stand that, im moral as well as physical affairs, every cause produces its preper and necessary effect. An evil life must invartably produce Ms consequent of suffering. Pumssment is bus another term forefect.

FOURTH PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. SERMON BY REV. BENJAMIN N. MARTIN—THE COST OF WORKI¥G OUT OUR SALVATION. When any man excels, said Professor Martin, yesterday morning, in a particular field at a par- ticular calling, he is putforward by men and made much of because be bas this peculiar ability. We have plessure in honoring such talent and exhib- iting it 10 the world, Soit is with the trath of God, Truth is a divine power. It makes those who practice it excel before God.

He then welcomes the service of superstition, and the more he goes the more ne comes ander the influence of a priesthood which governs with an iron wil, Passion is the bond+ age of the seul. It nas no control, nor any idea oi control. It straggles selfishiy agoinst others. If such a man ts not miserable it is because he is rable that he is content.

Sitaated in a neighborhood wretched, barren and unprofitable, and, to boot, with ail the villanous surroundings of the Harlem flats, It becomes a marvel that the space of the ed:fice was not at all commensurate with the de- | mands of the faithful in the vreinity, The services at St, Cectila’s cnurch were conducted with usual solemnity. The mass selected tor the day was one of Generali’s, and under the direction of Signor Mora it was splendidly Miss Loutse Denison bota during the “Cr at the offertory sung With considerable taste and jeeling.

Dr. Flattery, nas been suifer- ing from malarial lever for some time past, owing Lo the horribie surroundings of the church; yet he preached an able sermon from the text, “Amen, I say anio you, tere shall be joy in heaven for one sinner aoing penauce more than for amners owe ieee ones who dota not penanee.’” The peeacher djjated with great tendcrness upon ¢tbe toucning details of the prodigal and upon the mercy ofthe true Father of the wanderer. ‘The sermon was replete with eloquence and beautitul imagery. BROOKLYN TABERNACLE. DE WITT TALMAGE ON THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST. Yesterday morning, as usual, this edifice was filled to 1ts utmost capacity by the followers of the Rey. T. De Witt Talmage. He selected for his text partof the ninth verse of the eighth chapter of Romans—‘‘Now, if any man have not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his,’”” In opening his dis- course the preacher said that ne was aware that | there were several interpretations of this tex but, without going into the merits of each, he pre- ferred to select the most natural. Tne spirit of | Christ was one of gentieness.. He became angry at times, cs when He pursed the Temple and when He showed His anger with the Pharisees, but in most instances His nature was inoffensive, gentle and pieasant, His gentle disposition Is the most apparent when we think that, possessing a power with which He might tear His antagonists to pieces, He bore all His trials as He did. His | gentle disposition was recognized by tie | poor and afflicted. Invalids came to Him and asked that He might put His hands on their wounds, No mother had a babe too delicate that REY.

THE FREE TABERNACLE. A DISCOURSE UPON LILIES—SERMON BY REY. J. JOHNS. A rather small congregation listened yesterday morning to an eloquent sermon by the Rev. J. | @ Tabernacie of the Methodist Episcopal charch, Thirty-iourth street, between Seventh and Kignth avenues. The text was from the Song of Solomon, seventh chapter and third verse, In the course of hia sermon the preacner donna, in be F said that efter niun’s fall bie ways were knotty, | | anchor. at one time oF crooked, polson- kind, good, crooked, poisonous, Wh: life we see a man knotty, ous, and at another gentle, | so remarkable a change mast be attributed to the power of tue word of the Gospe!.

Christ looks upon himself asa lily ofthe vailey, tender, deitoate, pure, ira- grant, and says, ‘:0, tov, should my peopie grow up around me.” The bad man Is metamorpaosed, by the power of Christ’s word he ts changed from the hateful thorn of stn to the beauttiui luy of god- dine: he passes from the condition of the sinner to that of the saint; irom the aspect of a demon to the form of an ange}. As companion lilies in the Chureh, how much do we not desire the conver- version of our neighbors? See the sinful condition of society; behold how VHS WICKEDNESS OF MAN compels the use of locks, safes, and conservators of the peace to defend us from each other. If ail maukind were lies in tne valley of Onrist’s Charch, how great a fragrance would go up to the nostrils of God! But the lilies of His garden are allowed toremain here below, because Gad can. not afford to take away the beauty and fragrauce of their works, ‘The thorns of abuse that are di- rected aguinst pastors, preacher-, teachers aud fellow members of Gods Church, pierce all tne members of it, The lily thac is cultivated in the garden obliges us to admire Its splendid veaury and rich aroma; bat that whicn is found bloum- ing in the wastes and solitudes of dreary forests, attracts a thousand-fold vur sympathy, admira- Ulon, love. We take it up tenderly and piace it im our bosom, saving tne fragile flower from sivasting: its Rweetness on the desert alr.’ So, tov, is the tender infant lily that has strayed iroin Cprist’s flock taken up from snis wilcerness of sin by the great Trapsplanier and made to bloom in heaven.

AVENUE. MADISON REFORMED CHURCH. THE HOLINESS OF GOD—SERMON BY BEY. H. T. GANSE, Summer’s opening Sabbath showed a compara- tively slim attendance yesterday morning at the Madison avenue Reformed church, corner of Mad- ison avenue and Fifty-seventb street. But then this is a large church, and what would seema slim attendance here would be a large congrega- tion elsewhere. The pastor, Rey. Dr. A. I. Ganse, preached a forcible discourse, his text being Isaiah vil, 13:—‘Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.” Alter stating the eircumstances under which the words of the text were nttered he showed that the lesson enforced was a reliance on God and not on other help. Isaiah taught that God was the Lord of Hosts, and that in their arms of weakness he conid imfase omnipotent strength. The meaning was to fear God and there would be nething else to fear. Very ulfferent views are taken of une FEAR oF GoD. Some insist that there 1s nothing terrible in Goa; | that the idea of God should be one of tatherhood. Otbers teach that He is tecrivie, a God of terrific threatenings. Such go with anxiety all their days. lt was proper that they suould disabuse themselves of either of these extreme toeortes. ‘Yhe tirss word of the text was the pivot of the | whole matter, A proper understanding of thé word sanctify made it perfectly clear, Man may be sanctified, or, in other words, made holy, A place may be sanctified. How, it Is asked, can we sanctity the God of Hosts, a being wno is holy? There isa breadth of meaning Im the word as here used that does not Seem apparent at first view. Sanctify the Lord of Host make Him holy in your thougnts, in your love, in all your demeanor. It is the holiness of God that makes and sustains fiis terriblecess.

WILLIAM HAYNE LEAWELL. At the Central Baptist church. Forty-second street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues, yes- serday morning, Rev. William Hayne Leaweil, of South Carolina, preached to a large congregation. The text was taken irom Matthew xxil., 42— “What think ye of Crist’ Among the most frequent topics of ordinary conversation is that of greas heroes. The reason is obvious, Those gteat men have filled a large space in the eyes of the wWorid, have occupied a prominent place in the mighty events of time; their actions and in- fluence have changed the destiny of nations and they have filled the earth with tne glory of their achievements. One often says what one thinks of great men; not because his opinions will #lter the state of affairs, not that his voice of condemnation or Of praise will poison the repose or make glad muste tn the hearts of these burted chiettains, but because they Wave made the history of the world, It cannot, therefore, be otherwise than interest- ing to ask alter the iife and character of Him who changed the era of time and planted a kingdom within, and not antagonistic to otner kimgdoms, which knows no limitation 9s to time, territory or subjects. Jf no other good could be received from such an investigation but a determination of CHRIST'S EXACT INFLUENCE in framing high character, still Ishouid pronounce for aluse stady of fis life. But when we remem- ber His Was a life spent for the redemption of mankind, and that He has hung the destiny of our race upon a& correct belief in Him, the question assumes an importance paramount to ali othets and momentous to the soul of every living ma Christ des @ claim upon our faith. He not on commands that we beieve in iim, but giver ns ample reason for *o doing Without stultitying our- seives, Witsout blinding our jadgments to ‘ollow the tendency 0 onr warm sympathy, or Without compromising ourselves in the smallest particular. Agaio, ie has a claim upon our confaeace, based upon His personal resurrection. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is capable of clear demonstration, the woubts of iniidels the contrary not with- standing. He was cracified, as proiaue nistory te.ls us; He was laidin tne newtomb of Joseph of Arimathea, and He was not found on the morn- ing of (he third Gay, ° His aiseiples believed Him to Mave risen. Are they mistaken, who left ail and followed Him; who were with Him in cays of | darkness and nights of sorrow, who knew His person, yea, tie very tones of His voice? is Peter mistaken? Peter, who cursed and derted Him, and on whom Christ turned that gaze which burned into the very heart of the false and cow- ardly qixerpie y Is Josus’ mother mistaken? Does & mother lorget her children? Toe disciples were not weak-minded mea, ‘Tne jack toat they are called “unlearned” in the gospels does not establish the motion of ig- botance. he phrase merely means they had not deen trained in the schools of the rabbies. Christ has a claim upon our love as weil as our faitn. Men sometimes love those who do not have and Who vo not want to have any claim upon their hearts, while they often refuse to love those Who have every claim upon them, This claim of Jesus is based upon His love for our race. When « great venefactor beneiits # sc eprlaegesicoenenineoljeaseensta a J class he secures the love and gdmiration of every hon ‘The yeomanry of Eng- aracter of Josep! ie and SCARECROWS OF JUDICIAL TRUBUNALS.
