There was q large congregation assembled in

great work which the church had to perform IN that
community. lie thanked the vestry LOT providing
him an assistant minister, through whose instru-
mentality souls might be brought into the fold of
Christ and the church enlarged and beauthed.
Rev. Charles N. BabcocK then proceeded TO de-
liver his inaugural discourse, which was an able
ana eloquent production. He took for his text the
eighth verse OF the forteth chapter Of the prophecy
OF Isaiah-''The grass withereth the flower fadeth,
but the word OF our God snail stand forever"
Nearly twenty.six hundred years had passed since
the evangelical prophet uttered that declaration,
the voice OF the inspired speaker was heard no
more on earth, and he himself In his own moriai.y

The Hunger and Thirst for RighteousnessEf
Tho Inward Necessity Is the Source Of the
Outward Act.
Mr.. Beecher preached yesterday morning to his
usual large congregation from Matthew W, O.
'Blessed are they which do hunger ana thirst after
righteousness; for they shall be fled." Hunger
and thirst indicate the wants OF the body. The
alarm bell rings when the body needs, and we
hunger. IL Is sign that the body is wasting and
food Is needed Hunger may under certain circum
stances become pain, but in its normal state 1t Is
not unpleasant. 1t Is only when the
want is denied that 1t becomes painful.
II you look at human life in its
origins you Will see that hunger has been one OF the
most important stimulants to action. Now the
same law prevails In the mind-that Is to say, out.
ward activity springs from inward hunger. Some
yearning or longing, the development Of some
faculty craving It's food answers TO the hunger OF
the body. All the outward motions Of the man are
developed from some appetite fnher'ng In the in
ward. This is the law, then, which we recognize
