NEW JERSEY CHURCHES.
ST. PETERS CHURCH, JERSEY CITY.

Sermon by Father MeQnnde. &. 1.-The Ne.
cessity for Good Works.
In st. Peters church, Jersey City, solemn mass
was celebrated by Father Renaud, s. J. After the
FIRST gospel Father McQuade, $. j., preached ser4
mon from the gospeI OF the day. dwelling particu-
larry on the verses. Not every that saith TO Mes
Lord. Lord, shall into the kingdom OF heaven;
out he that doth the VIII OF NV Father, who in
heaven, shall enter into the Kingdom OF heaven.'i
The preacher commenced by saying that If wei
could see into the hearts OF the vast multitude OF
men In the world should discover that they
have
NO AIM But TO PLEASE THEMSELVES.
When We look seriously into the lives they lead
we shall find that they are living only for tue chs
jOyment or themselves and the gratlfcaon or theiE
senses wishing 70 have their own way In every
thing. as If they had really no end before them. Tho
question then arises, are we
CHILDREN OF CHANGER
What did our Lord come into this world for? Was
1t to do His own will No. He expressly declares
that lie came not do His own WILL but the Will OF
His Father who sent Him. So we are not mere to
do our own will, but to perform the Will OF God, who
created u.s. and to accomplish the end for which eX-
istence was bestowed upon US. And To accomplish
THIS end We should

Christ did not stop at any sacrifice. His whole
God you must give good example to your childrens
see that they go to mass and be careful TO keep
them from EVIL associations. Be honest IN your
dealings with your telow.men. Christ says 90 Not
into the Kingdom of heaven, but he that dOtn the
VIII or Ny Father who s In heaven shall enter into
the Kingdom OF heaven" In other words, 1t is not
sufficient to have 1alth, though IL ~ necessary to-
accomplish the VIII OF our Father who IL In heaven
before we shall be worthy To enter into His Kingdom.

d0ubly oppressive, and IL would be unwise 10 risk
an injury TO the health OF the congregation or to
task the strength OF the priest who Oficates at last
mass, and who has, OF course, TO remain fasting
until 1t Is over by OBTAINING them longer than II Is
necessary for them to fulh the obligation hearing
mass.n
RRPoRrkR-Yes; but. considering the deplorable
events OF the past week, II would be scarcely un.
reasonable to expect that the pastors OF the different
churches would have something to say on subject
with which, rightly or wrongly religion has been
considerably mixed up.
CLERGYMAN-Rellgion had really little or nothing
10 DO with that unhappy business. Previous 10 the
ianlentable occurrences OF Wednesday last IL might
have been fairly supposed that The religious ques
uon was more or less involved In that proposed
Orange demonstration; Tut events have shown that
Catholics, at least as Catholics. had no share what
ever IN that awful work which followed. They were
DULY APPRAISED AND ADVISED
OF their duty in the matter by their Archbishop and
clergy. and am proud TO say the latter were
listened 10 and cneeruly cbeyed BY their nOcks, as
they always have been In matters appertaining to
the spiritual affairs OF their people.
REPoRTER-But supp0sing the clergy were 10 adj

them on their having hearkened TO and pr0fted by
the admOnttOnS OF their pastors, would that be
leading to the assumption that such marked obe-
dience was something extraordinary or unusualY
CLERaYMAN-Precisely. II u.s. OF course matter

such signal and happy response from our people;

AN EXHIBITION OF SURPRISE
or lead to the notion that contrary result had been
looked for as probable or possible. We knew that
after our solemn warnings those persons VINO would
congregate around the scenes OF tnat demonstration
on Wednesday would not be Catholics I'm fact though
they might be In name--like the man Campbell who
was killed IN that ARRAY In Brooklyn last night, but
who, though he could try TO disgrace the Catholic
cause, had not been really Catholic at all
for many years. The events have justified our
opinions and our course, and no blame can now
be attached to Church or her people for the
disasters Of the 18th of July.

the pastor, who Is an eOcutlonist OF no ordinary

such verses as the following TOO plainly told his

OF them is DEATH
.For the wages of sin is death.''
'Beware OF false prophets who come TO you in
the clothing OF sheep but lnwardy they are raven

"a good tree cannot yield bad fruit neither can

'.Not every one who shall say Lord, Lord, shall
enter into the Kingdom of Heaven"
The but thlnly yelled emotion with which the
pastor read made deep impression on his devout
flock, and few congregations In the CITY separated
such outrages under the name of religion properly

Rev. Dr. Leyburn, Of Baltimore, at the earnest sos

morning. and preached to q large and fashionable
congregation The sacred edfce is located upon
a prominent portion OF Broadway, and while

a fair sized congregation assembled at this church
yesterday notwithstanding the oppressive state OF
the atmosphere. The esteemed pastor, Rev. DR..
Burchard, delivered the sermon taking as his text
Proverbs ill., ,:--'Trust in the Lord with all thine
heart, anu lean not unto thine own understanding"
The doctrine which the speaker deduced from the
text was that the Will Of God and not human wisdom
Is the standard of right and the rule OF moral con-
duct. The following points III proof were presented
with great force OF argument
!. The Will OF God Is in harmony with the great
principles OF moral rectitude.
III. IL Is always safe 10 follow the revealed VII! OF
God and never safe TO devlatc floiD II.
H. II IL loyal TO obey MS Will, because He is the
Lord our God.
The nierences from the discussion were
First--Any doctrine practical maxim nconsst-
ent with the first principles Of moral recttude must
DO false.
second--The popular sentiment received and acted
upon, "Of TWO evils choose The leasi,' on moral sub,
jects, Is wrong.
The principle OF expedency was clearly illustrated,
and when It was proper TO choose evil, not moral
evil which Ia sin ever, but the choice must be be-
tween natural evil, when no moral question Is
involved.
in conclusion the Doctor referred 10 the

had supposed myself almost as much alone
on this question as was in this State fif-
teen OF twenty years ago on the question of
emancipation or manhood suffrage. But |
am finding sympathy and encourag cement on
all sides. Public sentiment in this State on
this question is much more favorable than it
was to emancipation in 1861, or TO manhood
suffrage in 1866, and yet, in two years from
the dates given, both causes had achieved a
permanent victory. | mention these rem
iniscenses for the reason that many
people are unfortunately more influenced

character or benihcence Of any movement.

But let us one moment consider the sig
nticance Of this great question. 1t means
temperance in the place OF drunkenness. 1t
means purity in the place of RIGHTEOUSNESS.
1t means education in the place Of ignor-
ance. 1t means official integrity in the
place Of plumber. IL means the order and
decorum OF the parlor III the place of the
confusion and violence of the bar-room and
the corner grocery. 1t means peace in the
place of war. In Que word, it means the
elevation Of our civilization to plane I'M
mensely above anything heretofore known
or attanable in any other way.
And how simple and easy the means to
be employed silent and simple as the great
