Tying. last evening. at the Michigan Av.

an immense audience. Perhaps the rcfu-
sal Of Bishop Whtehouse to allow the
use Of the church had SON meibing to do
with filling the building. and il so. his
opposition can be made very potent
element Of good. since his objections To-
eure crowded houses. The sermon. care.
fully prepared. evinced high order OF
intellectual ability. and wa. listened to
with brcathless attention. II was an in
vocation and protest-in thst it com
pared the greatness OF Christian duty with
the smsllness Of sectsrisn dogma. and the
liltlrness of mere form.lities with th.,
grand charity that Illustrates the faith o.
martyrs. II showed that all great refor.
mstions sprung from the persecntions oi
the church. which denied to others the
same freedom Of opinion it claimed for
itself. Now that Mr.. Cheney has been
formally deposed. it remains to he seen
whether his career OF usefulness Is to be
ended by the arbitrary fiat Of mere srbi-
trsry power. From the qniet m ,nner in
which the congregation asserts the right
Of conscience. and resists the claims oi
biso'ry. it does not seem likely to so ig.
nohly terminate. Mr.Tvng has himself
srffs'ea from the intolerance Of narrow
notions Of Christian du,y. and his re-.
msrka were evidently made from = tense
Of deep conscientious feeling. Wheth,r

that those who denv the right Of con.
science will not sickle about the right
