Pie ry Batas, pastor of the Preabyterian chur dedic: by Rev were F v. the Among the others present Henry DeLong, local Mothodist church, and Rev. der, pastor of the Dunkards. Rev. J. Fisk, who preached the ser- mon, chose as text: “The Lord, whom ye seek, will euddenly come into his temple.” Tho first portion of his discourse was given to catablishing two proposi- tions, the first being the existenco of a God, the second that he manifests him- self in houses built as places of worship. Ho sought to_substantiate these proposi- tlons by the Bible and by the teachings of nature, Ho then said: A fow ladies had seen that sin and in- iquity abounded In Council Blufls. They saw that the name of God was blasphemed and his laws foully spurned. That sa- loons, gambling houses and other houses of vice and iniquity flourished in public places, and the most prominent streots 80 that it would take the combined efforts of the pious and the good of all denom- inations to check the evil. They saw that now was no time for theological discussions, no time for sectarian con- troversy, no time for contending that the Baptists, or Presbyterlans or any other sectarian denomination was tbe best, that the question was: shall Christizuity itself stand? or shall we give up our faith inGod, and float without chart or com- pass into the vast ocean of unbelicf, of wfidelity and barbarity? They firat held union prayer meetings from house to house. But as theso meetings increased in interest and ono of them had a closs of sunday echool echolars at her house it was concluded to purchase, and fi houes in which they could te own and their neighbors' children the woys of truth and holiness, thom up in the nurture and of the Lord, and that they couid have a opportunity of teaching and sh their friends and neighbors th proncher of Mr. Sny- his t there is reality in religion: that there is a saving sovercign balm in the atoning blocd of Jesus, a comforting, consoling, cordial there, that can wipe out the hidden sor rows of the soul, and with its sweet joy- ful antidoto cleanse the heart from that pernicious sin that weighs down and de. stroys the happiness of the immortal soul, They accordingly organized a society, elected officers under the name of the Ladies Harmony Miseionary Society. 1t was necessary to bo incorporated in order to hold real estate. They had a charter prepared, and aro now regularly incorporated in accordance with the laws of Iov Tais, 1 believe, is the only corporation in lowa composed entirely of females.

In conclusion, I would to_the Indies, never get weary in ¢ll doing. You have taken the Bible s your guide.

T. J. McKuy, postor of the 8t, Paul Episcopal church in this city, He said: It is a notorious fact that a body of clergymen cancot assemble together without propounding among themselves the question, ““how shall we reach the masses,” or ““how shall we bring the peo- ple to church?” And it seems to be can- didly admitted by .he majority f thinkers that relizion is degenerating in oar land, Many lament the good old times when religious ways were ways well followed if not ways of ploasantuese. It is well to look around, examine thoe matter, and seo if euch admissions bo true, (o back with me a hundred years, or leas, ana think of the good old meeting house without fires or organ, with straight-hacked seats, solemn audie and much more eolemn pustor. Think of the dreadful Sundays that were spent then, listening to loug, dry discourecs concerning origingl kin und eternal pun ora o to the ishinent. Think of oug sermon, with & short intermission, during which people could go iuto graveyards und eat their lunches, and then liston to anothe sermon, just as long aud uninteresting and then go home to 2 choerlers house and cold meals, seeing or hearing nothi that could create a amile. | Now, is that your 1dea of religion? 1f Lit fe, and if 18 the correct idea, then | we must admit that christianity has de generated, 1f any wan is not a christian who does not go to church and listen t ant Dedicate a Union|a died fn | tvo long sermons overy Sund a ttell his wife and daugh | s ) and nctivity ¥ have ta renerated | But, br who can say sol | would never sent to exchange the present type christianity at ; their an of histories you will see th were men exactly | the ear s, and liv [ in the we do to-day. But why is It that they wero canonized as saint awso of the, prominence that their lives then recelved, owing to the ess that surround them on overy |band. 1 believo we are living as pure and noble lives o8 any of our ancestere Their doctrine was to make roligion as reonblo as possible, Sunday was the loomiest and sickliest day of the week the whole year. I deny that they did more for Christ, unless long praye nons aud lowness of spirits are better than bright homes, and joyous laughing childred, with puro hearts open to receive that which is good, and handa re: to perform acts of kindness, While wo do full justico to the grandeur of tho char- acter of the DPuritans, wo must ad- mit that their religlon was not devoid of blemishes. Religion was their only diversion, and to mako it a diver sion they turned their attention towara wite aft and the burning of poor, in nocent women as witches, They had no railroads, no operas nor theaters, no pol {tical caucuses, They had nothing. Not even a church sociable with tableaux and magle mirrors to stir thetr sluggish blood, Glance at the grandsons of the old Puritans as they float upon the sur- faco of New York social and business life, and then think of the New York city of to.day compared with the Doston of n hundred years ago. Think of the business life of to-day. Of the arts, the sclences, literature and commerce. 1t causes the city of Now York to appear like a magical creation. Where the grandfather had one care, the grandson has twenty. Ho must keep pace with the civilization in which he is placed or he will be crushed. Is it a sin to eupport the opora and theater? Is it a sin to dabble in commer- cial and political life? If it is, then what must wo do/ Man must either advance or rotrograde, and the latter means death. If people prefer to retrograde, and lament the advance of the tlmes, let them do so, but lot them do so at _their ownperil, and at the peril of religion and all christianity, for people will have pleasure. They are disposed to obtain it lawfully if they can, but if that bo im- ponaible they will obtain it unlawfully. ““But” says one, *‘our churches are not 80 well attended as formorly,” How does he know! Where we had one church in former times, we have twenty now. There are many othor reasons by which to account for the apparent decreaso of ch-going people. One ia the intelli- that is forcing its way into the The pews contain more intelli- o than the pulpit in meny places. The newspapers are filled with better sermons { the people bear at their hes. When this is the case. we cannot blame a mon because he will not consent to listen to two dull prosy sermons each Sunday. Tho clergy aro oftentimes unfairly treated in this matter. You blame them d say that they are the cause of it. heir sermons are found fault with. 1f you ctiticize the preacher, remember the task thatit devolves upon him to perform; to prepare two sermons every week, upon subjects that are popularly considered best, not by any means the most enter- taining. Betore wo make up our minds that ro- ligion is degenerating, lot us go into the largo cities and seo what mankind s do- ing for mun, Lok at the hospitals and asylums for the diseased and helpless; homes for men, women and children, and outeasts. The charitable institutions that gpring up on every hand. The feeling that is mot shown in church-going iw shown by acts and deeds of Christlanity practically performed ina thousand other wa own ch 5. he deed and not the creed is growing more sud more to bo the standard by which man's Christianily is judged, Practico is going to be from henceforth tho criterion of real religion, Wo now have the commercial age. Men aro striving for riches, after the ex- ampls of Vanderbilr, Gould, Rothschild aud Aetor. But thiz is not done for the sukio of riches so much as for the sake of | becoming noted; to achicve distinction and rauk in society. 1 have known men to delve in gold miines, not for the gold litself, but for the power tho gold gave They spent it just as freely as And that 18 what men are striving for to-day. At onoago thls eame | motive impelled men to bo warriors, at cr, mor It 18 not wrong to ba trouble is that men do not wake the best use of their woney., We think for theso ressons that this age Is unfavorable to the progression of religion. Look back to the begiuning of the clvil war in this country. Do you remembor how the blood ran through the veius of the nation like efreams of molten fire at tho open- |ing of the enemy’s firo upon Fort Sump- tor ¥ We becamo a nation of warriors ready to take up arms at a moment's notica, Iaith is not dead; not even sleeping. Lt & man but touch our religlon to mo- leet it, and you will see men spring up on every hand " to dcfend the cherished ro- ligion of their fathers and willing to die for the sake of God and Christ, The one most beautiful name of the founder of our rellgion was and is Eman- uel, or God with us, Not only with us in tho past, but now, and even to the end of time. 1f rellgion is degenerating 1t is God's failure, and that is impossible, We must not be afraid to bring our christian life into contact with our secu- life. The time is coming when men will realize that they can follow their business pursuits and glorify God at the same time, It is not necessary to be a clergy- man to do this, The artist who painting & good picture glorifies God just as much in that act as the minister 1n the pulpit, and the mechanic who drives a nail and dock it well thereby serves God just as well an the artist who painted the trane figuration of the sainte, or the pastor who expounds passages of scripture from the pulvit.
