THE DIFFERENCE BETWKEN ASCETICISM AND SELF CONTROL—SERMON BY DR, GOTTHEIL. Dr. Gottheil delivered the second of a series of lec- ‘Mires On asceticism before a large and fashionable au- dience yesterday morning. ‘The reverend speal began by ug:—ibe sub. Ject which engages our attention is the atilerence be- twoen asceticism and self control | endeavored to show in my tirst discourse that Judaism, of all religions that ever gained any marked influence in the develop. ment of the human race, bas best succeeded in steer- ing a middle course, checking the unnatural tendency toward self abnegation and on the other hand helping Asses-or of tha Holy Oftiee. regation verio Apuzzo, Archbishop of its professors to acquire a self control and subjagation | of the natural lusts to the higher laws. | Judaism, if it were to remain itself, could not shut the door toa doctrine that was esgentialiy different to its own, containiig an element which, if it had been allowed to diffuse itself through the system, would have wrought an entire change, That this is not KTgtuitous assumption on my part can be proven from the Now Testament itself. he question is pointedly presented to us ina narrative of a diulogue between a Hebrew youth and the founder of the new religion, THK PARABLE OF THR RICH YOUNG MAN. We are told that awealthy young Israclite came to the new teacher and inquired—** What good thing shall | 1 do, that 1 may have eternal lite!’? At that timo men spoke frequently of a life that was cailed, vaguely enough, * cternal’’~ and this lite did not refer to ap existence beyond tho grave; but it was on earth, in Palestine, We read that the new teacher assured those who would follow him in the regenera- tion, that ‘the Son of Man shall sit ou the throne of his ory and that they shall sit upon twelve thrones Fadging the twelve tribes of Israel,”” This can reter ‘only to the political regeneration of tho Hebrew comn- monweaith to the time when the Messiah shall come back to earth bringing the new ord things, with the dead rising trom their graves to live in undis- turbed blissfulness, in what was surnamed the king- dow of God. The young Israelite, anxious to learn the truth about this, addressed himself to the herald of the new hope, and received for answer—what? “Keep my commandinents.’? What are they? ‘fbou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shait pot steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honor thy tuther and thy mother, and love they neigh- bor us thyself”? This ts au excellent answer, but notice that the cere- mouial law has been jeft out entirely, Not that it was meant to condemn or disparage it by silence, but it was not pertinent to the answer sought, It wase truly Jewish answer. You will notice that the Naza- rene teacher accepted the luws given by Muses, “Honor thy father and thy mother” and love thy neighbor as thyscit; only he put them last instead of first, as Moses did. He did not cavil at it, as some of his followers buvo, because they were loth to accord to Judaism the honor of having propounded the two lottiest laws of moral doctrine. The cavillers said Moses mount by neighbor only their fellow Israelites, Ifthis be so then the founder of the new religion either did not understand it in this way or accepted it in its more limited signification. ° But to return, The youug Israelite answered, ‘All these have | kept from my youth up; what lack L | yet?” 1t was no self-righteousness that showed itself in that apewer; it was 4 simple statement of a fact To the question of the voung man the following auswer Was given:—*Lf thou wilt be perfect, sell all that thou haat and give to tho poor, and thou shalt have treas- ureg in heaven, and come aad follow mo."? But when the youug mau beard this saying be went away sor- rowing, jor be had great possessions. This incident formed the occasion in which the new Master gave ut- terance to the familiar saying *‘that it 18 easier for the cancel to go through the eye of a needle than tora rich man to enter the kingdom of God." Now, this ig not merely a tale to point a moral; it {8 far and infinitely more, It is a declaration of the reitgious ideal, as conceived by the new school, and is placed tu sbarp and striking contrast with the existing und recognized taith. Jt said, Young man, if you wunt to boa good Israelite, keep the mand- nents, but you canpot enter the kingdom of God; bat if you would enter heaven, renounce thy possessions and follow me. The poor Israelite turned away in sorrow; and so did Judaism with bim, tor it was an impossible doctrine, Such @ doctriuve in the world as it Was and agit will always be, wiil never find favor, ‘The search after weulth is the patent tmpulse in man, the impulse of civilization, It is the innate desire of man to raise himself out of a state of poy- erty to affluence, Why should it be bardor for & rich man to be saved than the indigent? Do we not | know, do we not all admit that the temptations to evil are infinitely greater and more powertul with the poor than with the rich? Do we not ail admit poverty 1s, 11 not a justification, at least # mitigation of crime? POVERTY AND VICK, Suppose that by some magig plenty were brought to the homes where now hunger and want and cold reign, would not the visible eflect be apparent to all in the dimmmution iu the calendar of crime on the next mnorping? The gew teacher who offered this advice | occupied no high position; he was not even educated, | according to the standard of education in those days, | and his first disciples were bumble fishermen, and | yet this rich young man went to him, willing to take good advice from any source, but he acted wisely in not acting on the advice offered. What would pave been the resul: if he had followed 11? ‘The distribution of his wealth would have given reliet for a tew days, and then there would have been a re- lapse and things would have been worse than betore, Inazmuch ag the rich man, now despoiled of bis wealth, would be added to the jist of the poor, while by keeping bis posressions in bis hands he could suve hundreds by providing work for them. The young Israelite has unjustly vecn made the prototype oi sell. righteousness. We do not hesitate to accept him as 4 worthy representative of Judaism, brought face to face with the pew doctrine, justly appreciating the value of a tai property for whieh he would be beld respons: The young Hebrew and not Judas Iscariot represents the true spirit of Juau- ism. — Lot it not be said this is mereiy an ideal hoid up | before us—the general deductions held up beiore us forbid tbat, Wealth is held up ag a biparauce to the attainment of the kingdom of God, and an unattain- able ideal is fatal to any religion; but bring religion down to everyday life, then how’ well ber teachings consert with each and all uf the legitimate oy human endeavor—show that no sacritice is der of uny one save 8 nded h as will be productive of some | tangible good, Iniuse an almighty faith ina just aud | living God; enjoin above ail things reverence lor bis | commands and assume that there are no outcasts in the true Kingdom of God, and then all ears must !isten and all hearts consent, and ail minds see the light, and | Done will turn away sorrowing, tor all snuil waik in | that light to be blessed by it, CARDINAL M’CLOSKEY. ‘The Heracn yesterday, misied by an announcement published in a religious paper, stated tat His Bint hence the Cardinal would, on the 10ih inst., celebrate his sixty-sixth birthday.

JOAN WEISS. The fifth and concluding lecture of the present course was delivered by the Rey. John Weiss yester- day aftervoon in the parlors of the American Geo- grephieal Society, his subject being the ‘Latest Form of Prometheus.” In beginning Mr. Weiss said:— ‘The latest form of Prometheus bas its ancient root tin nature worship and the old antithises which the euriiest men and women noticed—light aud darkness, night and mora'ng, summer and winter, the birth ot a | child and the death of an old man. The old myth 13 referred back to this nature worship and worked up to the form im which the Athenians kuow it; but atthe time that Aischylus wrote his tragedy—"Pro- metheus Bound”—tbey knew nothing of the origin of | the myth, and the Athenians, who sat upon the benches of the theatre and witnessed the periormance | of the tragedy, bad no idea of the ancient root of what they saw, For that we are indebted to the com- parative ‘nythologists of the present century, who have ¢raced to its origin this story of Prometheus; and thus we ure enabled to form @ conception of this myth which was not shared by Socrates, Pericies, Piato—nay, oven the author Aiscbylus bimse! old Sanskrit names entirely changed. The personili- bolic characters and trom that into personal immor- talities, was ail forgotton, aud when the Greek mind wok hold of the system of gous they (the gods) became highly compact persons, who transacted | business with human beings uod were actuated with butman loves and hats; but «the few broad Phases of the earth and sky, in their primiiive sim- ety were enurely lost. Ascbylus, im taking bis Pransaesy, absolutely ignored tae cosmical origin of tho inyth, and its latest form was purely ethical among the Hellenized Greeks. What 1 was that eventually be- came the tragedy, he continued, is the subject that I wish to treat ol, Ido not enter here upon the vexed question of the origia of thepame, although | privately Uunk that tt came from the Suuskrit pramata, which signifies to extort by force, /ramata was the stick | Which the old Sauskrit priests used to revolve, and thus gain the fire which they distributed to the people, and although tuis was unkuown to the Greeks the idea of tire always clung to Prometheus, tt ts peculiar that @ light-myth became developed in personulity and then entered literature, 1t 13 because nature is noting but @ metapbor—the simpie elem of nuture can be translated into the symbois of the physical world, Everything can be traced to the old antitheses between hight and darkness, THY ORIGIN OF MAN, Otd nations differed us to the origin of man, but the Grevk was ulways clear on one point, that once being born his career was a coustaut succession of strugzles | agdinst hostile powers, ‘this was symbolized by cloth- ing Athene (the Greek Minerva) in complete panoply and giving her @ shield, thus showing that one who builds must always be ready to resist und battlo for the Protection of what has veep built. St Paul reters to this panoply and resistance when he says “Put on the whoie armor of God."’ The Greeks thought that sirite was the parent of symmeiry and that payment was ex. acted on the spot for every lite enterprise, Mr. Weiss here spoke of the labors of Hercules aud the trials of Ulysses, and said that there was always a Penclopo wailing for the one who successiully resisted the trials and temptations of life, When the time came for Aschylus to write his Prometheus Bound’? he took up the old myth in the state ip which it was then kuown to the Greeks, Zeus is represented in the drama. as 4 tyrannical parent, but i was not the Zeus of the Athenians who sat in the theatre and witnessed tho play, 1 was rather a picture ot nature emerging from crudenoss and adjustiug itself | with mankind, Zeus bad still within bimself the tate | of nature’s exacting order, ‘The Athenian audicoces rose to w roliyious enthusiasm for the superiority of | their conception of Zeus to that which was pictured iw the play. Greek tragedy was uot theatrical amuse. ment, but bigh argument and appeal to the best eio- ments of man’s nature, Nothing like it was ever known uot the Christian Church put the narratives of Scripture into dramatic form, uod then again the | same emotions stirred and the same teura flowed that | fell on the benches of the old Greek theatre, Prome- | theus representa the forethought and Epemstheus the atterthought. In the play the idea of uutagonism is never lost sight of, but the warfare was transierred from the stage ot nature to the human stage. When Prometheus said that (he gods were bent on monopo- lizing all the gifts to man he jaid @ plan to thwart him and ut the same time enunciated the great modern truth that man’s free will must, at ali huzarda, be re- spected. ‘The creation of Pandora and ber fatal curiosity in opening the fatetul chest which loosened ail the. ills of the world, but retained Hope as u blessing, was then dwelt upon at considerable jength, HRRCULES ON THE STAGE. The play goes ov, he continued, Prometheus is chained to the rock and the vulture is gnawing at bis Vitalis; bat he bas a secret, and Zeus knows it and tries, to discover it, anu, in trying, grot relenting. Just here Hercules is introduced, siguifying that strength should covet the alliance of foretnougnt. The position of Hercules ta the drama ts vory impressive, very religious. He is the man who liberated by strength and endurance the Greek type of a power devoted to the service of the common people. Hercules makes himselt givine through werk and suffering, and it is he who delivers the vound Promothous. ‘ine Greeks celovrated the virtues of Hercules by an annual foot race, run by night, the runuers carrying a lighted torch und passing it trom one to another. The Greeks bad a later® myth about the generous Titan (Prometheus) which’ represented tim as creating mankind. This later myth, which ts nota pure myth, becauso it runs into allegory, shows tears, fashioning it into the form ofa perfect mau, while Psyche, (the Greek for outterily, and typical of the buman sou!), hovers over the clayey siatue of the finished man, and ligbting upon it endows it with im- mortallife, During the lecture, Mr. Weiss gave utter- ance to the grand sentiment that when a man recuives something gratis which he ought to have earned, it ravages his house, it barms bis household. Pundora was a gilt unearucd, and she had alla man’s rage tor prying into things uatemperea by @ man’s prudent system of observation, Next fall, Mr, Weiss will deliver a series of lectures ta this city on the female characters of Shakespeure, which will be all entirely new. BOB INGERSOLL AND PRESIDENT HAYES. The subject selected by Colonel Robert Lugersoll for his lecture here on Wednesaay night next is looked upon and was yesterday widely discussed by repub- lican politicians of the Custom House, Post Office and Union League as significant, [1 1s called “Political Questions of the Present and Answers of the Future.” Colonel logersoll’s close relations to Mr, Blaine, nis ox- pressed repugnauce to one or two of President Hayes’ Cabinet appointments and other circumstances have led to the beiet and tear on the part of republicans thut he means to denounce the policy of the ud- ministration, and that such action on hie part will mean’ that the position taken by hn Blaine is one to be maintained by him and his iniends for partisan purposes. Colone! Ingersoll, it will be remembered, was selected to nominate Mr, laine at Cincinnati, Disgusted with Hayes’ nomination, he retired into privacy and legal practice, but was in- duced by letiers from Mr, Hayes to take the stump for the campaign. His speech wud tuat of Mr, Evarts in Cooper institute were justly considered by ail parties | as the ablest eflorts ot the campaign, and by bis ora- tion Mr, Ingersoil established a reputation jor earnest oratory and epigrammatic style which will insure hima magnilicent audience here After lapsed into lectures on social or educatioual topics, and was very success(ul in the West. But the political crisis presenis too mavy salient points for Mr. Inger. soll’s invective, satire and epigram to permit of lis resisting the temptation to lecture THE WORKKINGMEN'S WANTS.
