Israel said unto HIM, SO shall thy Judgment be; thy
self hast decided it;' and on this he preached a
good orthodox sermon, showing what Christians
may expect by minding their own business and
looking out for the welfare Of their souls.

The "Litfle Church Around the COrner''-
New Years Service-Whnt rhe Rev. Drs.
Housht0n and living Say About Sabine's
Sanity Scruples.
At the beautifully decorated Church OF the Trans
nguration, Twenty-ninth street. near Fifth avenue,
yesterday morning the sermon OF the day was de-
lvered by the Rev. Dr. living in aid OF the mis-
sons Of the Church. At the conclusion Of the service
the HERALD reporter waited the Rev. Drs.
Houghton and living in the vestry. After some
remarks on the missionary labors the conversation
touched on the
SABINE SCANDAL
The worthy Dr. Houghton, who seemed suffering
from slight lung ndlsposition averred in tone OF
meek depreciation that he could see no justification
for Mr. Sabnes refusal to read the funeral services
over George Holland, except some scruple OF prin-
ciple and he could not even see that.
DR.. living, VINO is a hale, slx-foot champion OF
the Lord. remarked, In his full, oeep voice, that
Sabine had
NO RIGHT TO REFUSE HIM
whatever. Ii was admitted all round that Sabine
would be glad to hear no more about the matter.
Dr. Houghton, however seemed as much riled as a
man Of his mid temperament could be within fifteen
minutes alter morning service at Sablne's would
be contemptuous remark tnat There was some one

days before the funeral he simply asked IL the de-

sire not TO trench on another clergyman's parish.
They informed him that George Holland did, and he
consented Mr.. Jefferson said, II think it right
inform you that tbs deceased was an actor to which
Dr. Houghton replied,
~ HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT.N
He did not know at the time OF Sablne's refusal,
nor afterwards, until he saw it in the HERALD. he
supposed the way in which 1t was believed that he
was "in the habt OF doing such tnngs'' arose from
the fact OF his having performed similar service
some years ago for
POOR GIRL, AN ACTRESS,
at the request OF Laura Keene. They had, perhaps,
remembered this, but he saw nothing in either act
but that which mis- duty dictated. Or. living vigor-
ousy seconded this remark. DR.. HoughtOn tnen

eyes, though slightly burned, are all
right. Charley Eccles, the newsboy, was
