He rsshea g have al power taken out Of the hands
Of the present Representatives. and claimed that ali
laws should return to the people, giving them IRE
opportunity OF accepting such laws or refusing
them. This was tue only way TO educate the pconl3
IN political science. A change like this would
destroy the system of theving now in vogue
When any change took place politically one ael Of
thieves succeeded another set. Every body elected
was o thief lie would have new constitution FOR
the United States. The present one was q mistake.
but Mr.. Davis WAS unable to give any definite IDEA
OF what should take It's place. In fact, the speaker
was OF opinion that tue only party which could save
the country was the new democracy whatever
that democracy may he.
Dr. Andrews followed In an explanation OF go

and transcendental social science. Some discussion

LECTURES LAST NIGHT.
y5uaS MEN IN HISTORY.

Lecture by the Rev. j. =. Morris.
The first of course Of three lectures was denver" a
last evening by the Rev. John 5. motifs, u. ~ OF
Baltimore before the Young Mems Christian Asso.
citation of st. James Evangelical Lutheran Church
In East Fifteenth street. between Second 2nd Third
avenues, on the above subject. The object Of the
course IL 10 repensh the treasury OF the association
for useful ana practical work. The attendance last
evening, although limited 10 naInbers was highly
respectable.
The lecturer, on being introduced, proceeded 10
say that there was no doubt that lnordtnate gratn
cations, INDUCING our wayward passions, and yield
ing IN general TO the sensual over the spiritual lead
to premature old age. william Hewitt, the English
author SAID that he owed his health at seventytwo
years OF age to four doctors, and these
snet0 sno soe s meb,
added good humor Young men were to be
the guardians OF trade, commerce ana religion. Not
only were special instructions Civ en- In the Bible TO
young men, but they were mentioned with great
emphasis In lt In various places. II young men
would practise the lesson OF the Book OF Proverbs
they would be examples OF sobriety and integrity.
The Apostle Paul in one OF his passages said, II
write unto you, young men, because you are strong"
lie meant strong in fighting the battles OF the Lord
The history OF the Church Is full OF refreshing Incl
dents In which young men were very active In pro-
noting reformation. David was but young man
when he began those works OF piety which distin-
gnsiied him, and Solomon was but a young man
when invested with the robes Of royalty.
After dilating at considerable length on several
other promiDentS criptura characters who had dis
tinguished themselves wniio young men, he said Lu
ther was but young man when he began reforming
the Church from idOiatry and Papal despotism.
Having admonished the young men present to fol-
low In the footsteps OF those whom he had cited the
reverend gentleman closed his discourse by o refe-
&C., who had taken front rank In the word be.
tween the ages OF twenty aud tweDtI-six.

The opening lecture under the auspices Of the

system OF government service was the most useless
and the most awkward Of any civilized country and
would inevitably rail- TO pieces AZ 1t paralyzed the
honor and poisoned the spring OF action OF the gov
