organizations. In conclusion he traced the effects
upon modern progress ana civilization OF true Chris
tanity, In their relations to man, Individually con-

course Of these latter remarks he referred 10 the
Richardson Mcfarland tragedy, denouncing in

the assassin. The sermon, though occupying over
an hour, was listened to with the most earnest
attention.

imposing. They consisted OF a grand high mass in
the forenoon and vespers In the afternoon. The
church was very prettiy decorated with evergreens

adorned with q profusion Of fresh flowers, pre-
sented by the ladies OF the congregation. At the
left OF the grand altar there little crib, in which
was small infant Jesus OF wax, surrounded by sew
eral lighted candles.
The Rev. Father Ronay, the eloquent clergyman
who during the last Advent season delivered the
weekly discourses, delivered the sermon. He took
his text from the Gospel OF the day, and Tor
hour lwelt upon the great benenb mankind

the end of the world from the incarnation. 1t
had been long age OF darkness and despair for the
world from the time OF the fall OF our first parents
until the birth OF the son of God IN Bethlehem. The
IDEA prevailed OF the coming OF CHRIST
that the Messiah would come into the world as
great conqueror VINO, at the head OF armies, would
bring the whole world under the power OF the people
who came from Judea. lie came, however, to con-
quer men by love and suffering and humiliation, and
haa set them an example which all good men should
endeavor as far as possible to follow. The speaker
after dllatlng upon the life OF the Saviour and the
sunerings He underwent for mems sake, closed by
calling upon all good Christians 10 be mindful OF the
passions OF the Lord and to show by their lives III

was vocal and hideous at intervals with discordant

Christmas Decorations and Christmas Music.
Filled to overlooking by devout and fashionable
congregation, DR.. Tyngs Episcopal church In Six
teenth street presented cheerful aspect yesterday
morning. Tokens OF the joyful Christian annlver-
sary were everywhere visible. Beside the altar
on which the sacred elements Of the sacrament
covered with snow-white linen, were cOnspcuously
displayed, stood large evergreen trees, emblematic
OF the never-dyng faith OF the Christian and along
the galleries. About the ornamental pillars support
ing the Illuminated roof were entwined garlands Of
the immortal shrubs OF nature. The mellow Decem
Der light falling through painted windows upon
frescoed walls, shed radiance upon the upturned
faces OF the congregation; while hallowing the
scene soft, delicious music stealing from the lips OF
the well-traned choir, harmonlzed by the sonorous
organ, spoke the benedictl0n OF art on the ormali-
ties OF religion. Madame Anna BISHOP, whose spen-
did voice was heard clear and high above those
whose united melody filled the sacred edlnce, was
the principal soprano. In chant III psalm anu
hymn, her joyful voice, singing the praise OF the
kedeemer III tones more eloquent and impressive
than the uterances OF minister or assistants sank
deep into the hearts OF the assembled people, and
powerfully affected all who at the mothers knee
were taught to reverence Him who for hate substl-
tuted love, for vengence mercy. and proclaimed TO
an astonlsned word the blessed doctrine OF Faith.
Hope and Charity.
The services were characterized by more than
ordinary display OF devotional feeling In the hearts
Of all the devout worsnlppels there seemed to pre-
vail living sentiment OF gratitude TO God their
AC6pouoSs
were eloquent OF inward alteration. The cold Tor
mallty Of Sunday observances was not shown, but
the lively and humanizing warmth characteristic OF
the Christian anniversary In older lands was
pleasantly apparent. III satisfactory to see the
hard features OF the merchant the careworn face OF
the banker the stern rg0r Of the millionaire change
into seasonable ana Christian expression under the
measured words OF sacred import and the res0und-
ing tones Of choir ana organ. The pains and penal
ties OF the Old Testament were for the moment for
gotten; the everlasting damnatl0n promised to i've
slxths OF the human ignored aud only the bliss
remembered.
Al the conclusion Of the services, which were most
interesting, the Rev. DR.. Tying preached very clio.
quent and effective sermon on the anniversary OF
the Saviour's birth. after which the sacrament was
Administered to large number OF persons.
