WASHINGTON, March q, 1870.
The severe storm thinned the congregation in the
morning at the Metropolitan church. A faithful
few were present and among them the Vice Presi-
dent who can never be ranked among fair wea-
tner Christians. Dr. Newman spoke from Mark H.,

was at once the great inconocast and restorer
OF his age. He destroyed traditions that en-
barrassed the law ana brought order out OF confu-
sion and light from darkness. This was emphat

CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH.

The Rev. Mr.. Hanna's connection with the Central
Baptist church, Williamsburg, having ceased his
desk was occupied yesterday by the Rev. Samuel T.
Hilman, who preached a thin sermon to thin con-
gregation. The sermon was attentively listened to
by the few persons present, oil Of whom had been
"sprinkledn before they entered the sacred ediice
by Jupiter Pluvus, the arch-enemy OF those VINO be-
neve IN immersion.
Mr.. Humans text was chapter xiv. verse 25 OF
the Gospel according to st. Luke-''Then he said
unto Them, fools, ana slow Of heart to be-
lieve al that the prophets have spoken" In
expounding the text, Mr.. Hilman said that there
are pictures that have entranced and enthraled us
and LETT memories and taught lessons that we can
never forget but the greatest picture ever held up
to human view was that of Christ nailed to cross
with malefactor by his si6e The contemp lation
OF that picture has chastened and refined the hearts
Of thousands ana led them to eternal happiness.
But there few who noticed the full significance
OF that great picture. Even the apostles failed to
recognize, as the dying thief did, the significance
OF the cross MIR. Hilman dwet at length upon the
crucifxIOn OF Christ and the circumstances attend
ing It, and closed after having impressed upon the
minds OF his hearers that there are many thieves
living who Will never receive an invitation
Christ to sup with Him In Paradise.

WASHINGTON, d. G., March 27, 1870.
The services at the Unitarian church were to-day
conducted by Rev. II. w. Bellows D. d., OF New
York city. The preacher took as his text the four
teenrh verse OF the twentv-nfth Psalm-.The Sc
cret OF the Lord Is with them that lear HIM. He
said the great duty in teaching the Scriptures was
to make them plain; that In the various religious
denominations all were striving for the same end
though there existed distinction In detail. The
Roman Church performed their religion In the pomp
OF the mass The Calvansts ran INTO extreme Views,
and liberty OF conscience wit them was carried to
an excess far worse than the tyranny which the
Church at various times had exercised The Quaker
waited for the moving Of tne spirit. The Reformed
the Trinitarlans, the Unitarians, and variety OF
other churches strOve to
MAKE THE WORD PLAIN.
Had not God claimed this service He would not
require Hs children to study HIS ways. Had not
God claimed this service He would have made His
word plain and relieved mankind OF the necessity Of
searching after truth. The secret OF the Lord must
be equal tC all for all iDd religious peace In all 1t
requires. The reverend Doctors sermon was rather
abstract but put forth many important suggestions

Church embracing all. Owing TO the storm the
church was about half filed. Several members
OF Congress were present.

preached to-day, taking the text from Romans chap

was intended TO show The folly of study
ing the Bible IN fragments and build
ing whole systems OF doctrine upon isolated
passages without regard to the connection, the par
tcular object OF the writer the general tenor OF
Scripture. This was varlously illustrated, showing
the erroneous systems which ad thus been formed.
The speaker then proceeded to state that great EVIL
had resulted from Protestant views OF the
work OF Christ particularly by separating
His death from the power. OF His re-
baby confined their teachings too much 20 the law,
its penalty, the sinners guiit, the wrath of God,
and the sacricial death Of Christ, limiting the
view to the death on the cross and not bringing
