as REIIGION.

After 1867 wears Of the Christian era
It may well be asked what progress has
the religion Of CHRIST made among
mankind? We know that it has e1erted
8 great influence among men. But
when we cast our eyes around US not
onlv in the vast area Of H~esthendom, bu
also in the nations that are said to be
subject to It's influence, how little do We
see Of true Christian influence! We may
take any OF our cities IS an example
The records of startling crime are
Astounding. OF the minor vices, which
are contrary to the spirit Of the Masters
teachings, there is no account; but they
can be told by the million. Even If We
70 into our churches, dedicated 10
CHRIST. how much Of uncbAritSo 81 eness,
bigotry, pride and secret sin might be
hunted out!
We speak moi in the spirit Of s Re
former, but only to exhibit the results Of
that train of reflection which is brought
about by a view Of the human race, as it
now exists. Wars and rumors Of wars
prevail. In Italy the spirit Of revolution
IS abrosd. In France and Germany sn
explosion is daily expected. In England
Fenisnism faces oppression and wrong,
as witnessed by the Manchester riots.
Russia and Turkey look defiance at each
other. Mexico has just en- erged from
var to anarchy. Brazil, Paraguay and
Chill flourish hostile ornaments. The
United States has failed to settle the
basis Of permanent pacifcation, after
the civil war has been concluded
for two yesrs. The organs Of
the President snd Of Congress hUrl
threats OF violence and resistance,
and keep the people uneasy with appre-
tensions of a bloody revolution. The
most ignorant and b~srbsrous Of the pop
ulstion are decreed the rulers IN one part
Of the Confederation and the balance Of
power 10 the whole. Crimes abound.
The Divine inspiration, known as the
Sermon on the Mount, whica would
unite mankind in peaceful and happy
concord, is scarcely ever deemed worthy
OF being quoted 80 authority IN sdjudica-
ting the controversies or regulating the
conduct Of men. The spirit Of christian
ity Is Ignored. We need missionaries Of
peace in our homes, streets, temples of
justice and ever at the altar. We have
begun sadly to grow worse. What
is the esuse.9 Are the prin-
eiples Of Christianity wrong? Was
CHRIST an impostor q? We DO not
20 believe. Aud yet those principles are
either very worthless and their Author a
false Teacher, or ws-mankiDd-are 8
very degenerate and unteachabls race.
Wehave had cline upon line and precept
upon preeept, here q little and there 3
little" We have improved but very
little under the very Lamp Of Inspiration
and with the clssrest Illumination Of the
Sun Of Righteousness. The truths Of
religion are certainly an anchor Of hope
and a source Of happiness, temporal aud
eternal, where they are riEidly followed.
But the world rejects them-prscticany
st least. The world must be degenerate,
blind and ~intrsetsble, when we witness
the enormities, the diseords, the crimes
that daily occur 10 the very heart OF
Christendom. Missionaries are needed
At home. 1.-THE harvest is great, but the
respers are few" -
