CHARITY SERMoN.-Rev. Bernard A. Ma
guire President Of the Georgetown College,
preached, in St. Mary's Church, yesterday,
from the text "Now there remain faith, hope
and charity, these three; but the greatest OF
these is charity lst Corinthians XIII, l3
Remarking that he had preached charity SER
mon to the same congregation, two years ago,
and was fearful of repeating that discourse If
he confined himself to the latter part of his
text only, he entered upon definition Of talth
what it was not, and what it was. Hope, Of
which he gave very eloquent description, nat
urally he said, followed faith; but both faith
and hope were tor time neither would exist
In heaven; but charity, the greatest OF the
heaven born trio, was eternal, and without 1t
faith and hope were dead. He dwelt on the
necessity of good works as the fruits OF faith.
Catholics be said had been charged with lllb
erality, because they did not unite in matters
of religion with those out Of their church; IN
matters of faith there could be no libcrality,
for faith was the belief of what God had re-
vealed, and in this there could be no compro-
mise; but in works of charity Catholics knew
no difference of faith; they asked not, when
they found distress, whether the sufferer was
Catholic, Protestant, Jew or Infdel. The
Catholic Church was not fashionable church;
it was the church Of the poor, and to relieve
the wants of the poor and preach the gospel to
them, was its special mission.
A very crowded congregation, including a
large number of members of other denomina-
tions, listened to the sermon with the deepest
attention, and the collection appeared to be an
unusually large one.
