where temperate and eloquent sermon was
preached by Rev. DR.. Adams ON "Protestantism-Its
Nature and Influences" The learned doctor took up

doctrine and practice OF Professionalism and argued
dispassi0nately that the Reformation, though not
without certain n0n-essental errors, conferred

Adaptation Of Man 20 circumstances.
The attendance at Plymouth church yesterday
was, a. usual, large and fashionable. After the
ordinary service the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher de-
livered an eloquent and highly srgumentative dis
course choosing his text from st. Paul-"For have
learned In Whats0ev6r state am In Herewith to be
content.u The remarks OF the reverend gentleman
were chiefly directed towards demonstrating the
possibility Of man adapting himself to all the varia
lions OF circumstances and to show that there was
mighty power in the soul capable Of resisting oil the
temptations Of the world. Nor was the effort super
human, and the best method to satisfy the holy am
bition OF the mind was at once to begin to learn to
accommodate oneself TO the many vcissltudes of
life.
DR.. Bacon, OF New Haven, who made an earnest
appeal Ia behalf Of missionary support, and In the
course Of his address alluded to the many qua1-
cations necessary for the ministry, c0ntending that
ability and faithfulness were among the most I'M
portant ones. Those intended for the Church must
have knowledge superior to those whom they teach,
a. well IA varied faculties OF discourse TO enable
them to communicate the needful truth clearly and
forcibly. In conclusion the reverend gentleman
earnestly adverted TO the large fields yet open for
missionary labor, and strongly urged upon those
present the necessity OF giving substantial support
to those institutions which furnished ministers 10 all
parts of the world. The services terminated shortly
AFTER nine O'Clock.
