LiturgicaI Worship.

IA Mountain Missionary spoke to
his congregation about Litttrgical wOr-
ship. He sends the substance of his
remarks to US, which we are glad to
present TO our readers. Ed. s. &.
There are several arguments urged
in favor of our use of Liturgy. Ii
seems to be thought by some, that the
strongest is, that it is a thing of the
highest eXpediency in preserving the
faith, and preventing the introduction
of false doctrine. But the arguments
found on the nature of the Liturgical
worship are the best; for it is work
of Gods people. ! cannot think that
this truth is sufficiently attended to,
or pressed upon the attention of those
VINO have not well considered it. 1t is
that the Church, the body of the as
sembled members of the Church pres
ent. are met to worship God. They
have not met for that purpose only;
but for that high purpose certainly
Are they to worship by giving their
assent to what is done. only; or in
heart only? 1t seems that a just esti-
nation of Gods people requires more
than that. Fer does not st. Peter Il
Peter ii. 81 call them "holy priest
hood to offer up spiritual sacrifices aC-
ceptable to God by Jesus Christ ?" and
He calls them "a chosen generation, a
royal priesthood, an holy nation. a pc
culiar people; that" they "shOuld
show forth the praises Of him who
hath called" them out of darkness
into his marvellous light Worship.
then. and the Offering up Of spiritual
sacrifices is their ri4ht function and
proper Office. This principle makes
| our Book of Common Prayer, the fit
test expression of the dignity. worth,
and office of the Christian people, that
is now in the world. Our mode of
worship is intrirsically good. Com
mon worship in supplication and pray
ers, as well as in praises, is right. Acts
iv. pa. PrecOmpOsed prayers must be
very expedient for this purpose, if not
absolutely necessary. But this Is not
to say that they are always necessary
or expedient, when other purposes are
to be considered.
Then let me ask any baptized Chris
| tian, if he be a godly man, whether
! he call himself an EpiscOpaliau, or
| Presbyterian, or Methodist, or Baptist,
or Romanist, what there is in the
words or the principle of our worship
| that hinders him from joining with
all his heart in it q? and let us who use
| this service remember how excellent
are the privileges of the members OF
| Christ's Church. and lift up all togeth-
er, our hearts, as well as voices, devout-
| ly to God. B.

THE new Ku-KluX bill now pushed
forward to its passage in Congress Il
excessively despotic and inquestorial
in its features. 1t places the entire
South at the arbitrary disposal OF
Grant. and Empowers him to use the
military forces of the country in max
ing arrests. and takes the trial of the
eases from the State Courts 20 those Of
the United States. 1t makes any ar
rested member of a body of outlaws
responsible for all acts done by any
who may be able to escape arrest 1t
il lamentable fact, that there are too
many outrages committed in portions
of several Of the Southern States. 1t
is equally plain, that these acts are
rapidly bringing over our heads, the
horrors of such legislation as is above
described. There are other conse-
quences. The disability bill Of Mr.
Beck, Of Kentucky, which lacked on
ly fifteen votes Of the necessary two
thirds in the House last week, would
have received the requisite number,
but for this Ku-KluX excitement. The
Southern democracy owes it to Itself
TO suppress these lawless acts. or to
show that it cannot do it. There
should be held democratic meetings,
and the party should be placed equal
ly on record as IT deserves to be for its
opposition to these acts in which too
many radicals are really the guilty
party.

TroChu, who had solemnly promised
to inform her of the approach Of dam

the mob began to assemble about the
Tuileries three of her friends, Prince
Metternich, the Spanish Ambassador
and NJ. Lesseps, formed plan for her
escape, and went to her rescue. NJ.
Lesseps stood outside and haTangued
the mob for the purpose of detaining
them, while the two other gentlemen
went in search of the Empress. They
found her Iartaking of a very frugal
lunch with one of her ladies, and her
fears could not be aroused. Seeing it
impossible to persuade her, the two
gentlemen used force to remove her
