DR.. Fuller Of Baltimore, the blaudness of the wealth
ef having permitted largs congregation to assemble
In the edifce. The mornings worship commenced
BY singing the 3soth hymn, beginning with the
following lines,
Plunged IN a gulf Of dark despair
We vrstehed rinners lay
Abortion Of Scripture, from the INST episte To tn.
CorinthisBs, and second chapter, was then read,
~nlcn was followed by an impressive prayer The
.'4th hymn was then sung, commencing as follows:
There is fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Enanuels vpibsn
Or. Fuller then commenced bis discourse takibc
for his text 10th chapter eth verse St. John: "Of
sin because they believe not on me"
The following Is ab.tract of this truly eoouent
sermon: There are two important differences to
be drawn from these words. Fir.t'y men are respon
sible for their teief, and secondly unieisf is the
great crovning fatal sin. Dr. Fuller snforcsl these
two divisions Of his subject at conside able length
aud with great argumentative pover He condemned
the popular fsllacy that mans belief WAS subject
OF little moment. Charming who was the brivhtest
| luminary amongst our intellectual men, with the
exception OF wrbst.t, had faid, "unbeiief Is rot
awayrcriminsl" Lord Brough says, 'sOne's belief
Is not always voluntary" God, however, has told
rs whosoever believes not shall lie damnedn I'm
doubtsdiy MANS belief Influences every action of
- life, although others may be unaware of the
secret influence which SWAPS his action. Like the
spring Of clock, which concealed from view, vet
controls all the works, or like the slender rod of
railway track, which nevertheless directs the course
OF the Ponderous train The exceeding sinfuIners Of
unbeiief was then dwelt upon, it was this crime
which caused Paul to denounce himself as the chief
Of sinners" The .rn,cr lasted ,r over an hour, and
the service conc:acei by the choir which was we'll
conducted, singing the anthem, Praise the Lord all
ye people" The bened;c,ion then pronounced
and the congregation separated after collection had
DEN taken up towards the building fund We
omitted to rsntion, that at tine termination of the
Rev. Dr. fuller's rermoo, the Pastor # the Church

To tile congregation, in which he ALLUDED 10 the time
that he had been with them, spoke in high tenn.
Of the religious and Moral character OF tie congre
CATION over which he presided; as well as Of their
efforts In the cause of Temperance and public educa
aon. He also spoke with reference to the respecta
bility Of the neishborhcod, which at the present
timc, although it had been overlooked contained
three churches within ashort distance lie likes se
made mention Of the improvements about tho locaL
