The meeting was first addressed by Rev. Mr. EvERrs'
He said although all the moral movements OF our age
are animated in the main by tue same spirit iooAhs
the elevation and salvation of the race as the one gaho
object o their pursuit yet each possessed some radical
principle by which it distinguished from Alndreu
associations The Bible Tract and Seamshs oeneVoeht
societies each had objects specific and dehned Inc
object of this Society prominently 10 vlndi-
cato the sanctty of the family relation. In the
present order which human society assumed, the
hand of God recognized in the institution OF tne
Family the Church, and the state. The Churcn ID
ia visible relation had undergone those changes
which the varying state and condition humankind through
the progress Of ages seemed to require tie state hsd
risen up decayed and passed away and then assumed
new forms 10 adapt itself TO the wants OF the race put
the Family relation which seemed TO have been the
Immediate emsnston of Divine wisdom renamed the
same as at the beginning The Ancents furnish striking
and beautiful examples of devotion 10 the Family nsuu
ton and their best Philosophers and Poets recognized
its superiority What was said by another OF the man
who had no music in his sou" he would say with EN-
phasis of that man who did not regard with peculiar
sanctity the Family relation. Such man was " NJ ior
treason stratagem and spoil Were the Family what
IL should be we should have need Of State, or OF
Church for each Family would be state IN ITSELF ana
each Family a Church in its own house
10 prosecuting the objects OF this Society their WORK
was rather preventive than rtorma0ry In large ma
iorty Of ca would be found that the entrance upon
lhe paths of sin originated in the want OF proper re
gard 10 parental and family obligation the part OF the
child induced perhaps by harsh and unkind treatment
where there should have been shectonate snd endear
ng carefuness by those having charge OF their early
/ education He urged the necessity Of an immediate
prosec uton the plan for erecting the HOME ne one OF
the most efficient means OF preventing the increase Of
vice among the honest but desoate and homeless poor
Bishop JAMES of the NJ f. Church, also made AN in
erestng address designed particularly TO advocate the
necessity Of the HOME and the meeting was closed by
| singing and the benediction.
