The weather TO day has been charming, and as

attended The furor over the nrst appearance OF
spring and summer fashions having subsidized the
leaders Of society pay less attention TO their own

MlDDLEToWN, June l3, 1859.
1t has been q most delightful day and the attend
ance at most of the churches was good, though not
so large as might have been expected. The SER
mons were mostly Of the usual dun and monoonous
style OF preaching that pervades churches of
late though there were exceptions to the rule. One
of the most eloquent and interesting sermons which
have ever been heard In the First Baptist church was
delivered this morning by Rev. F. Mccarthy, native
OF Virginia, late student at Rochester University.
His text was taken from ST. John xiv, 6-"Jesus
saith unto him, am the way, the truth and the life;
no man coneth unto the Father but by me-" The OBJ
ect of the discourse was to restate the claims of the
Son OF God to the highest reverence, worship and
affection OF His people and the world; and this the
speaker did in manner entirely different nom the
customary style OF modern preachers. TIL HIS ad-
vent the Jewish nation had known and worshipped
one God while at the same time they recognized the
gods OF the neathen nations around them,
but as holding subordinate place. 1t was
Christ VINO taught their priests and teachers
and the philosophers OF the day OF one living and
true Cod and His sef-assertion as manifested in
the announcement that al and My Father are one'
and the new doctrines and revelations which He
made to the multitudes that Hooked to hear Him was
more marvellous than all the miracles wrought by
Him. II was through Christ alone that we received
the daily recurring necessares and comforts Of life;
through Him the faintest aspiration heayenward;
through Him. as the medium OF approach 10 the
Father, that we received answer to prayer through
Him that the soul Is reconclled ana saved, ana
through Him comes the only assurance we nave that
after death we shall live again. Christ, His mission
His character, His divinity, now made the
theme OF almost countless books-the larger share OF
them inhdel in tendency ana designed TO sap
the foundations OF Christianity and the Christians
faith and hope He urged his hearers to cultivate
an affection for the Saviour to cling 70 Him and His
cross as their Benetactor, Saviour God-the all IN
all to His people.

Capron made very eloquent appeal to his congre-

Redeemer. The lesson to those who suffer in like
