Ifa man is determined to preach on grumbling he can always find occasions and texia Tue easiest thing in the world to borrow is trouble, for everybody 18 willing to lend, Sydney Smith, during @ charity sermon, sad that Englishinen are known as lovers ot ther species, When, however, the contribution proved ethall, ho ended bis sentence by saying, “Englishmen aro kuown for their love of speele,’’ It would be well tor us if these words of the, post NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1876—QUADRUPLE SHEET. Wordsworth could be made applicable to our own ease:— A mau he seoms of cheerful yesterdays Aad confident to-morrows. The chaplain of the penitentiary has one advantage not enjoyed by apy other preacher in the land. No matter how dull bis sermon may be, he can’t preach his house empty+ Sometimes we weaken a dgcument by trying to strongtien it. A is groom a recommendation, in which he eaid that the man was sober. Patrick was dissatisfied, and asked his master if he couldn't be a little more positive and add that he ‘was frequently sober. Thus conscience does make cowards of usall The very words use to cover up & fault only serve to display its grossness ail the more. Most people use their minister as Moliére did his physician. ‘Of what use is your doctor?” said the King to bim one day. ‘Well, sire,"’ was the repiy, “he gives me prescriptions and | never follow them— that is all.” ‘We want our religion for an emergency, most of us In this we are not unlike Lady Herbert, who asked some one for a pretty pattern for a nighteap. “But what signifies the patiern in a nightcap!’? was asked. “Why, child, in case of a fire, you know.’ The advice is worth following. Have a becoming religion all the time, and then when tho disaster comes you will be sure to have on “tho wedding garment.”” ‘This winter we may bo sure that all the holidays in the chureh culendar will be religiously kept, ‘The rich will keepall the feast days and the poor will be sure to keep all tho fast days. Wq ought to have fair play in this matter of the relation between religion und science. If itis tobe demanded of theologians that they leave science alone, then it is no more than right for scientific men to leave religion alone, It can’t be expected that ministers will sit quietly by and see their theories pummelled by the iron fist of science and not say a word. If Huxley and Tyndall will let Moses and John Milton alone, the clergy will allow them to sit onthe ice of the glacial period and freeze to their hearts’ content, But if they invade the domain of theology they must remember that “there are biows to be given as weil as blows to be received.” There is a great deal ot misdirected sympathy in the world. We have known people to take pity on a home- less dog, and let 2 homeless child sleep on the side- walk. Absuch sights we always think of Sterne, who wept over a dead ass, and moralized about the uncer- tainty of life and the duty of looking carefully and kindly after those leit in your charge, but who at thai very time was cruelly neglecting bis own flesh und blood. Asa rule it 1s well to look after your own kin first, and then, if your sympathy has not been prop- erly taxed, you can spend the residue on stray dogs ana cats, When Bayard Taylor visited Baron Humboldt once, tho old philosopher whiled away the happy hours by pungent criticisms of everything and everybody. He showed the versatile American a great many curiosi- ties, and among others alarge chameleon, ‘The pecu- liarity of this creature,” said Humboldt, “is that he can look in two directions at the same time, With ove eye he can gaze at the heavens aud with the other he cun at the same time regard the earth very atten- tively, 1n tle respect,” he added, with a sly smile, “he is not unlike some clergymen.” Of course, the remark was a glittering generality whose application 4s confilnea to European latitudes. Mr. Spurgeon’s method of preparing his sermons 13 said to be very peculiar. With abuge cloak over his shoulders and a Havana cigar in his mouth he wanders through the streets looking at men and things, The smoke never gets into his sermons, how- ever, any more than docs the London fog. He is not above conversation with a carter or a butcher, and has a way of learning something from everybody. In his preaching he never plays tbe part of an aecronaut, soaring above the crowds that look up in open-moutned wonder, but seems like a captain who js willing to lead the way he waats his people to go, At the recent Church of England Congress Dr. Belcher humorously asserted that a ‘good punch is too good to be despised,” and then added that ‘‘a great deal of drunkenness 18 caused by a want of knowledge in the art of mixing drinks properly.’ As for the punches, he ought to be perlectly satisfied, for every religious newspaper in the country has taken occasion to give him a gvod hard one, and as for ‘mixing drinks,” the elergy still jnsist that the people know ouly too well the mystic art. It ought to be added thai Mr. Belcher was not a regular attendant upon the services of Messrs, Moody and Sankey. Universalism is not without its peculiaritics, Rev. Mr. McCarthy is unhappy over some of the tendencies he has discovered, and bas written a new credo, The only article of this creed which attracts our attention is that which declares that God will render to every man according to his-deedsy-with an intimation that if this “render” does not happen in the present life it willin the next. Now, Mr. McCarthy may put the label of Universalism on that bottle; but it strikes us that the bottie contains the regular orthodox prescrip- tion, The “all-right-anyhow’’ doctrine has suffered metem psychosis, and reappeared in the disguise of the Statement that every one who does wrong will be punished for it, if not bere then there. ‘hat kind of Universalisin is not dangerous to morals, An English paper, describing the eyes, hair, clothes, complexion, boots and gloves of Rev. Dr, Bevan, who 1g soon to occupy the pulpit of the Brick church, says ‘tbat bis morning discourse aims at enlarging the spir- itual conception, and that in the evening it is nsually devoted to winning sinners. When he comes to New York it ia to be hoped that he will preach nothing but evening sermons, In these latter days it soems necessary to give the public a detailed account of every personal peculiarity of a prominent mav. It 18 a process of vivisect‘on in which all take delight except the individual who is on the operating sable, We look ut him tbrough a microscope and get the exact hue of his cuticle and the precise length of his pose and then aunounce these startling facts to a wondering world. How miserable we should be if we did not know that Tennyson always weurs Ni 10 boots and gloves corresponding in size! Every letter writer tells tbe people that Dr. John Hall nas a habit of throwing his bead forward when he speaks, and that Dr. Wiliam M. Taylor provounces the word world as though it bad three delightial r’sin it. ltas the century of details, and if a man is great we want to know who bis tatlor is, and where he buys his gro- ceries, This is the way we worship our idols, Mr. Moody im his impassioned moments is apt to s1y something that will be remembered. It is a pity that ministers can’t take one hint trom this great lay preacher, and give up their long sentences. Long sen- tences are soporific, Whona man hits bard, it is al- ways with a quick blow. The best sermon is a kind of mitrailleuse; 1 shoots about a peck of little bullets, one alter the other, and then keeps still. Mr. Moody preaches iu this wa, He said the other day:—*Ouly two things God asks of every sinner; to let go, and to lay hold—et go ot self, lay hold on eternal lite.’ The “Rig-Veda,”” which 1s the oldest pieco of literary work ever done in India, has been translated, in part, by Max Miller. ‘This collection of writings, philosuph- ical and religious, has been the tavorite text book of a certain class of lay and clerical doubters, who throw it boldly at you whenever you dare to speak of the exceptional inspiration of the Scriptures, They tell you with overwhelming positivenesa that the threo Vedas aro so tuil of **bottom facts’ that the Bibio will very soon bide its diminished head, We have not been able to reiuto the statement, because we can’t read the ancient Hindoo language with any degree of fluency. But now that Max Miller bas given uso transiation we ought to expect Moses and Isaiah to fade away into thin smoke, and as for Solomon, well, ail wo can say is that the Queen of Sheba bad never read tho Vedas, or she would not have been so complimentary tothe King of Isruei. With these anticipatiovs we opened tho book, and tho result of our carelul reading 4s a conviction that the volume has been badiy trans- lated, or else that the free rehgionists have made statements not borne out by facts. Periodically Moses gets dethroned, and with singular regularity he goes back to his old seat again. Tho Old Testament has been battered and abused in every imaginable way, but somehow we can’t get on without Sinui and the cloudy crown that encircles its royal symmit. ‘ THE CHURCH OF ST. PATRICK AT HARTFORD. ITS DEDICATION 1TO-DAY—DESCRIPTION OF THE EDIFICE—OPENING SERVICES, - Hantvoxp, Conn., Nov, 25, 1876. .

JAQOB’S EXAMPLE OF CONSECRATION TO GOD SET BEFORE YOUNG MEN. At the opening of his sermon yesterday in the syna- gogue in West Forty-tourth street Dr. Mendes remarked that their nowly founded Hoorew school had been in ac tive operation for amonth past and had proved a great success, It has sixty pupils—a large number in sosbort atime, Bat the number might be larger, and would be Mevery, parent in the congregation whose children do not attend other schovis would send them to this, He thanked the parents who visit the schools on Sunday mornings, and hoped others would do ukewise, There 14 a Talmudic proverb, said Dr. Mendes, that the tute of the fathers foreshadows that of the chil- dren, This is not us well koown and understood as it should be, und yet in this Bible history the fate of the jathers empuatically toreshadows that of the suns, Let us take for our consideration trom the Sedra to- day, said be, the situation in which our father Jacob is placed. In patriarchal times, when men were born and hved and died in the same village circle, it ‘was an unesual thing for a young man to waniler away from nis home, And yet Abraham did this and setiled in & Strange land, Would not one think that the family bad wandered enough after this? But no, Abraham was a wanderer and so was Jucob. It would be needless to cuntinue this burrative; you will recall at once the history o1 theso wynderings. And unhappy Israelites, like their fathers, Lave wa up and down amoung tho nations of tue earth. Wandering Jew” 18 more thay a mere fiction, It is to the early part of Jacob's journey, suid Dr. Mendes, that | call your attention this moruing, and to young men und jor young mon 1 speak. The Doctor then briefly descrived the patriach’s jouruey and called espeeial attention (o the mutual covenant entered tuto tie outset between Jacob and the Lord Almighty, in h the Jatter promised the patriarch “Whither thou guest 1 will be with thee; 1 will not ie: thee unl I ave done ail that Ihave spoken to ul ot.” Jacob awoke from his vision, and aud, “Sureiy THK LOKD Is IN THIS PLACE, and I knew it not.” He then mude u soiemo vow that if God would bring him back again in peace to bis Jather’s house then ue would serve God ail his days and would give a tithe of ati tbat be possessed to tue Lerd, Note the threefold vow—God #haii be my God, this pillar or house shall be dedicated to God, and I will give the tenth to thee. Our young men to-day go forth into the world and sometimes ity the atmose proiound solitude of great cives. Is it not fitting tuat attention should be given to the future at the starting? Jacob went trom Beersheba to Haran. He kuew where he was guing, und overy young wan should Ktow this beiore he starts from home, And knowing this they should make their vow that {1God will prosper them they will have bo otner GOd, nur pay ties to any other, In bis jather’s house Jacov had heard ali about the true God, who, though iwvisivle, was mightier tar than ail other gous. ibe Iree thinkers of that vay could not see Him, and why should tuey then believe in His existence. Again, Jacob was going inte wtamily and to a country of idolators, and it would be good Policy tor him tw make himsell agrecabie ty tne peuple. But lung before be came to thet be vowed that Gud the Lord should be his God, So do you, young men, make the Almighty your God und don’t bow duwn to the gods of pleasure, of lasbion, Of tame, &ce, You:his the time tor religion, Woat is greater or povler than a religious young un? And here, said the Doctor, 1t me give you a pracieal rule:—Whenever you seo ultempts imade to batter down truth, if you examine tue circumstances car fully you will fud that great iguorance prevails there, It 1s only the tools why sy (uere isto God; they are only Laseful in tueir deeds and they seek not the good of others, Jacob again would build a touse tor Guu. So do you, young wen, sald the preacher, but build it in your hearts and in your hommes. Practice consideration toward (nose among whom you may be placed, Mere strength is pot worth much without training and caution, So also of sincerity; it you practice nut this at Home what will you do when you come to battle with the world? DISSIMULATION DEGRADES YOU in the eyes of yuur teliow mon. Jacob, too, would be charitable, He would pay uthes ot uli that he pos- seased to God. Never let your euse and comfort keep you.drom performing cis of charity. Youth is the time for engaging in such acts. ‘oo many confound pleasures with triendships, but tne friends of the thea- tre or the baliroom will hot stand the test of adversity. Select Iriends that you would take into the privacy of your homes, into te presence ot your mother or your ster, And when you tind such friends bold them crate your intellect, yuur emotions, your Jacob did, to the Lord, und may you go iorth successful as Jucob was. Don’t ve prossod back by those who would tell you that you are too youag, The work of the worlu mast be done by young men, The Voctor then quoted examples of novie young mea who in early life had made their mark, such as David, Pascal, Kichelieu, Raphael, Pitt, Wash: ington and others, in every department of human society. The history of neroisin is the history ot youth, Bu strong, be firm, for wherever you go the promise is that the Lord your God will go with you, METHODIST MISSIONS, THE COMMITTEE'S ADDRESS TO THE CHURCH— NECESSITY FOR PROMPT AND UNITED AC- TION. Tho Missionary Committee of the Methodist Episco- pal Church, which sat here for a week and adjourned Jast Tuesday, appointed a sub-committee to prepare an address to the Church. That committeo has dono its work, and the Christian Advocate of this week will contaim it in full; bot from its advanced slips we very sad ®iings. «In 1874 the debt amounted to $121,816 92. Retrenchment was suggested, but the needs of the work prevailed. In 1575 the debt had | grown to $185,562 84. Rotreuchment was discussed, | but postponed, in 1876 the debt has grown to * > $6, and retrenchinent is ordained. Last year the Missionary Committee asked the Church for | $564,185 60. This year wo ask for $850,000. During the past year the society disbursed $699,904 35, and has. received from ail sources $594,188 38, The receipts have fullen below the roceipts of the preceding year $68,207 58, aud the debt has gone above what it was atthe begumming of the year $76,702 72, till it now reaches the evormo of 355 56, Beyoud this it cannot go wil peril to the society, peri to the Church and peril to the cause. On the other band the gen eral commercial stagnation has increased the demand for 1 m the home work. Avd | we m successes in the foreign work de- mand increased vigor and support. We have thus been ina strait. And our action is a compromise be- tween these confiieting torces, ‘To answer tue cry for more help with less help, or none at all, has been ex- tremely painiul in spite of the conviction of duty. ‘This pam has been relieved somewhat by the Christian spirit iu which the strong have nobly voluuteored to bear the burdens of the weak. ’? The comumitiee then describe the cutung down of in every department and of appropriations mission, foreign and domestic, ana yet the Missionary Committee wero unable to do anything tor the older and more certamly cstavlished conterences, The committee say they are not, however, disheart- ened forthe result, They ask the Church for all she is able to do and bave faith that the people will measure up to this call if they ean be shown their duty and the entire membership can be reached. They instance the Methodists of Canada, who, with less ability, give five ttes as much Methodist Episcopal 'Chureh of bis Republic, those of Great Britain, who give twelve tin per member as is now asked of the Church here. Congregationalists of the United States, too, give five or Six times as much as the Methodist Episcopal Church is asked for. To meet the exigencies of the hour the? committee suggest that the plan | and instructions of tne disciplins should be followed, aud that every preacher snould do his duty auder this plan; that the Sunday schools of te Church should be organized into missionury societies, and ope entire day should be given to the subject of missions in every church, They further suggest that the missionary collection be taken early und sent forward to the treasurer immediately, and thas one y in the week of prayer be sacredly devoted to this subject SAMARITAN HOME FOR THE AGED, This oxceilent mstituuion is forced to appeal for the first time to the churitable public ior aid.

J. Hart, was forging and uttering such checks, Mr, Blair states that on Octo- ber)18, he cashed a check for $75, drawn upon one of Mr. Gunther’s water-marked blanks and dated October 1, The teller had doubts as to the genuineness of tho signature, and sent the check to Mr. Guather’s office, but ho was not there, On the follow- ing day two more of the checks were sent to Mr. Gunther’s office, and his son pronounced them forgeries, The toller thereupon returned them to the banks from which they had come. ‘That was, Mr. Blair says, the first intimation any member ofthe | firm had given tho bank ofliciais that checks had been forged by Hart. They never evon informed tho bank that Hart bad left their employment... Mr. Gunther, Sr., bas not personally done so up to the present tine. About two weeks after the statement that the | checks in question wero forgeries, Mr. George Guo- ther, the oid gentleman’s son, called at the bank, the teller asked him to look over all the ch@cks ot i firm and seo it any othor forged ones been paid, Ho did so, and declared there were lorgerics among them. book was balanced and Mr. Gunther took all the checks away. A few days afterward he brought buck ‘one of them, dated October 15, for $75, and which bad been cashed on the 18th of that month, and declaring it to be a forgery, claimed that the bank should bear the loss. Mr. Blair states that the bank will probably pay the check of October 1, which was pronounced a torgery by Mr. Gunther on the 19th of Octover, but not the one brought back by the latter. He denies that the bank turnished Hart with checks with which to perpetrate his forgeries alter bi been denounced bi je Orm. There had been, he states, torgertes of cbs on the old firm of C. G.

At carly dawn the display of bunting was complete onail the public buildings, and Broadway looked handsome with flags flying from ali the hotels and mogt of tho leading stoves, Tho aceumulation of flaga used in the ceatenuial decorations made it easy ta decorate, and the national ensign was unfurled from thousun stwils and trom the windows of many of any military display lett the glory of celebration to the veterans, who turn out every Year and muster ip good force, notwithstanding theit auvanced ages.
