Sermon by Rev. Dr. Bancroft on the Ap-
prsachinG Miliennu ilcign and Glory Of the
Now Rejected saviour. .s.
This accomplished scholar and earnest evangeli-
col preacher selected for his text on yesterday the
words from the prophet Isaiah, XXI. l1-"watch-
man, what OF the night" &c. &C. The sermon was
eminently OF a prophetic type and illustrated the
Dcnt OF DR.. Bancr0ft's theological opinions. In q
most eloquent and instructive manner the preacher
alluded to the past dispensational dealings OF
God with man, and pointed out with much
ability the awful Judgments which are 20
usher In the miilennlal presence OF HIM whose
L0rdsnip by the world Is now disowned. llc Doc
TOR then showed the goodness OF God In describing
nrst Tor the comfort OF His people. the bcssedness or
the morning before the night, the victory before
tue c0nnct the glory before the shame. fhiloso.
phers talk about Tho day Ct knowledge. the day OF
Science the day OF progress, the day OF advance
ment &c; but they DO not speak OF the night. &c.
clesastcs speak OF their Church. Or their tradition,
&C.; but there IS very little said by them Of the
might The preacher concluded with number or
vary practical rcmaI KS stating that the battering
rams or scepticism have failed TO make q brc2cn
within the walls OF Christianity. There Is an entire
absence of everything that pertains TO politics In
an Tie discourscs Of this gentleman.
