Mr. ADAMS SECOND LECTURE.-The
Tabernacle was crowded almost TO suffo-
cation on Friday, by anxious listeners to
man before the Lyceum. The subject of
his discourse was the Importance Of reli-
gious faith, or faith in the fundamental
truths of revelation, as the only basis oil
genuine social morality .... 49,.
On his way hither, Mr.. Adams deliver
ed this discourse before the Young Mems
Association in Hartford. The Congrega.
tionalst, a religious newspaper published
in that city, makes the following remarks
respecting it:-"As a theological disquis.
ilion, the discourse Of Mr.. Adams might
be objected 10 as incomplete but crit.
icism here is not perhaps admissible. as the
venerable orator repeatedly discIaimed al
intention IF embracing any thing more
than the most general views Of Christian
li,y. The articles offaith to which he con
| fined the discussion were three: viz, The
existence of God, the immortality and &c
countabi ity of man, and the divine mission
of the Redeemer. He made men respon
sible for their belief In these great truths
and showed the indispensablenes OF suct
a faith as basis Of all social and individ
ual happiness and virtue. The discours
had in it many strong points Of truth
which were rendered alternately glowing

beauty of the speakers truly versatile ant

guarded in the language used. "Eadicu-
lions Of q tendency on the part of some Of

guarded use Of English. "To withdraw

lilly, TO withdraw from the ENTERPRISE in

The LOST BIBLE FOUND. Most of our rea.
ders have seen historical notices Of the misfor.
tunes of the family of the Rev, MIR. Caldwell of
New Jersey, in the revolutionary war. MIR. C..
was pastor of the Freshly terrain church at Eliza
BEETHOVEN, and like most of the clergy of thar
church at that time was jealous wing. His
activity against the British made him mark for
their vengeance, and in one of their frequent in
curtons into HAT neighborhood, when he was
from home, Il company OF soldiers surrouded his
dwelling, and one of them deliberately leyelled
his musket at Mrs. Caldwell, while on her
knees at prayer, and fired, killing her instantly.
The party then retreated, carrying off several ar
tcles Of plumber, and among them Mr. Cald'
wells family bible. NOT long ago, and more
than sixty years after the event we have been re
cordng, an old woman living on Long Island,
called on one of the grandchildren Of Mr.. G.
at Morristown, N. j. and presented this den

by Mr.. Caldwell III his own hand writing
then the record as made by the soldier who stole
it, and various memoranda by subsequent posses
sors.--Phik Sentinel.
