CENTRAL METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Saints and Their Saviour.

The Rev Benjamin NJ. Adams preached yesterday
forenoon TO large congregation in the Central
Methodist Episcopal church. South Fifth street,
Williamsburg He took for his text the tenth verse
of the fourth chapter OF the First Episte OF Paul to
Timothy-"For therefore we both labor and suffer
reproach, because trust in the living God who Is
the Saviour of all men, specially of those that
believe" Mr.. Adams commenced by saying
that every man has his inspirations A man
Is superatvely selfish, and he goes forth in the
world grasping at everything he sees. That Is his
inspiration. The sehshness of lover, VINO dedes
all Things for the object OF his affections is his nspl-
ration. In all cases action Is inspiration. and no
saint can be inactive. The duty OF the saint ls 10

latng wealth, by setting good examples TO his clerks

tons. None OF us are exempt from prosecutions.
There never was person. no mater how pure, who
was not found 1auIt with. Positive people-th0se
who say what they mean and mean what they say
are most subject to censure and persecution and
negative persons do not escape IL altogether no
matter how amiable they may be. But the positive
people-St. Paul was one OF them-accomplisn the
most glorious work. They labor when they believe
and labor continually. WHAT we all most need is
more faith In the supernatural-more faith In the
living God. With this 1alth In we can accomplish
ANYTHING. We must feel the inspiration OF Christs
presence before we can labor and suffer reproach;
for Christ Is the special Saviour OF all who have
faith IN HIM. He Is everything that you take him

Mr.. Adams announced that vote ON the question
OF lay representation would be taken in his church
to-day Monday. The polls will be opened at half
past three O'Clock in the afternoon for the purpose
giving the female members OF the congregation an
opportunity to deposit their ballots and will be kept
open until six O'Clock In the evening. They will be
reopened ut quarter TO eight O'Clock for all men,
bers. Mr. Adams Is himself opposed to lay repre-
seniation, but he expressed hope that every mem
Der OF his church would vote one way the other.
He asked those who In favor OF the church as l
Is to vote against the proposition, and those who are
dissatisfied with il to vote for II. The General Con-
ference should be fully informed of the sentiments of
the members OF all the congregations under its con.
troll.

Sermon Of the Rev. WrI. p. COrbit-The
Coming Encroachments on Original Method
ism.
Yesterday being Communion Sunday In the sacred
and ancient building OF John street Methodist Epis-
copal church, it was filed with large respectable
and appreciative audience. After the usual morn
ing religious exercises had been gone through, the
pastor, Rev. VIM. p. Corbt, came forward In the pull
pit ana announced as his text I. Corinthians, XII,
1926, commencing wIth-"And the Lord Jesus the
same night in which he was betrayed took bread,n
&c. After few predatory remarks the speaker
went on to eucidate the words OF his text, during
which he took occasion to prove that the commu-
Mon was commemorative service of divine appoint
ment; and this was manifest 10 all present, for
Saviour said-"Do this in remembrance of me-"
lie also nstanced the Feast OF the Passover, which
was one OF the leading feasLs Of the Jews, which
observed 10y Gods own people in commemoration OF
the destroying angel passing by the houses of the
lsraelites, while the houses OF the Egyptians
destroyed because there was no blood typical OF the
blood OF Christ to be seen there. TINS the great
song OF the redeemed hosts before the throne Of
Goo, that they had overcome through the blood OF
the lamb lie then ably defined the object OF the
Communion, the efficacy OF it and the great end OF
It, After eXpatating at some length very power
fully on these heads, he concluded most practical,
evangelical and effective discourse which was very
attentlVey listened to throughout.
The minister In reading over the different notices
OF public meetings to be held IN the city during this
month, said there was one which would be held IN

this present month, and only he was bound or rather
compelled, to read It, he would abstain from doing
it. For himself, he protested against 1t with his
whole heart and soul, and before That intelligent and
respectable congregation he did In the name OF
the Divine Trinity, in the names OF Che apostles and
prophets, In the name of the santed martyrs whose
blood was the seed OF the Church, in the names of
the founders OF their beloved and Scrptura Method
1sm-Wesley, Clark, Benson, Watson, Waugh and a
host OF others-he entered his solemn protest. In
the name of his departed wife and children he did
so; and that was to prevent the lay members OF the
church from interfering in the spiritual affairs of his
beloved yet simple Methodism. When that day ar
rived then was their pure Methodsm done, and
done forever. and nothing but chickering's and end
less disputes would follow.

Others They had another Office, and that was TO
show proper example TO all young men In follow
ing higher pursuits and in keeping clear OF all that
would InJure them They should keep aoof from
secret societies as the most crying evil OF the age
Within the last quarter OF century these societies
were not so prosperous and active as they are now
Freemasonry, for instance. was never more active
than now. They looked for neophytes among the
Catholics, and had even seduced them to believe
there was nothing inconsistent with religion IN thus
disobeying the dictates Of the Church. He had
heard legal gentleman of high attainmenis,
who very likely believed what he SAID, tnat
the Catholic Church was not serions IN condemn
ing Freemasonry because Archbishop Hughes
was freemason, many eminent priestswere Free
masons, ana even Pope Plus TX. was Free
mason. These young men then had the power to
keep aloof from this Society," they were protected by
their SOdalityfor this society had subverted all au
thority and even claimed TO be religious assemblies
He advised them TO avoid all such societies and OF
continue to cultivate their minds In proper man
ner. He cautioned them against the seductive, and
dangerous and irreligous literature which was
spread around them.
There was time when English Catholic literature
was almost unknown but now, on the examination
would find excellent literature, which they could
not only study with satisfaction, but even
contribute TO themselves. In conclusion ne
prayed that as God had blessed their SOdality

ALL Another difficulty lay IN conservatism, which
puts the leaders In opposition to the people and 10
honest progress, and then the people march over
them. Too much conservatism, when makes people
cling 10 perniciOus institutions may be productive
OF stagnaton, disease and death. Another difficulty
Is misapprehension OF the doctrine OF the nallibll
ity OF the Church. The Church Is based the revea
ton OF God. and there must be, in government
as well as in the Church, a supreme trlbu-
nal authenticated to decide. The constitution

reason why Catholics should be prejudiced against
Protestants. He had heard Catholics clergy men
and lay say that Protestants had principle OF mo-

God and the Ten Commandments. Tney were preiu-
diced against the abolltlonists, who had been the
best friends The free laborng population ever had IN
this country. II the people once know the truth
they viii put prejudice under their feet. The rev.
erend speaker then referred to the prejudice prevail
ing against emancipation and granting the suffrage
TO the freedmen, and spoke earnestly against such
preJudlces, and he also pald glowing euogy on the
character OF the American people for having adopted
short, sharp and decisive policy in this respect,
the success OF which was wonderful They had
'rained'' 400 teachers and five millions in money
upon the South for the education Of the freedmen,
as the only pun shment America inlcts upon rebels.
The reverend gentleman closed with an eloquent
peroration In favor OF the unity OF the Christian
family.

The services opened with prayer and reading or

hymn was then sung, which had been printei and
circulated throughout the church. This hymn was
the last production OF the late Dr. d. X. Zee, and
was written by HIM for the UniveTsast festival held
in Boston i'll May 1869, and was never again sung
till yesterday, at the funeral services OF the amened
discourse which, though somewhat long was
listened TO throughout with the most breathless
attention. The reverend gentleman more than once
during the delivery was overcome by his feelings,
and the congregation were frequently touched 10y
his mention OF their departed pastor TO break out
dwet upon the bitterness OF the bereavement caused
by the death OF Mr.. Lee, and the loss thereby
sustained by his own church and the church
large, but drew the attention OF his hearers 20 the
comfort which could be drawn from true religion
and the blessed gospel OF Jesus Christ. He referred
TO the suddenness OF the death and to the fact that
the deceased cut down in the very midst OF his
usefulness and with his harness The speaker
also gave q slight sketch OF the late Mr. Lees lhe
from the time that he entered the ministry, at the
OF twentyone until the day of his death at the
age OF ifty-two and concluded with an ANALYSIS of
his personal character At the close of the address

member OF the choir, and after prayer the congr ga
lion were invited 10 take last at the features
of their deceased friend and pastor. The immense
gathering, almost without the exception OF an indi-
vidual, nled past the coffin, and, amid universal
weeping, gazed for the last time upon the familiar
form OF their much-lOved teacher. The remains
were then placed in the hearse and the mournful
procession started for Greenwood where the body
was inferred in vault belonging TO friend OF the
family.
