God and the Boston fire.

Abstract of }crmon, by X. VI. Web
ster, Dec. lst, 1872.
The smoke has rolled away, We
have had time to collect our thoughts.
and to weigh the already expressed
thoughts Of other men, Ii all that
has been said about the great fire, by
reporters, Editols, and preachers, were
written, the world would hardly con-
tain the books. And as Elihu waited
till the three older friends OF Job had
spoken-thinking days should speak
and the mgltitnae, of years should
teach wislon'-but afterwards spakc
with strong feeling, for that their words
had srieyed him, and they had nst
honored God so |, having waited till
the wise men have had their say, and
being griayed that they have not-as |
tbink-honored God. will express my
feeling and conviction.
Many tru2 things have been uttered,
Many sensible suggestions have been
made. Boston has been well criticised
and counseled, and much sympathy
and coincidence and substantial help,
has been generously offered, The wise
men sav-Bnild your mansard-roofs.
hereafter, Of iron and stone Instead. Of
wood. Make your streets wide.
Leave, here and there, and open space
in yonr rows of buildings. Make your
roofs fire proof first, and ornament at
forwards. And they make many prac.
teal deductions, and seem willing to
learn many usefu! lessons, but they
find, in the great conhagration, no
place for God. 1t is notorious. how
carefully the Lord of all the earth is
ruled out, even by a large part ct the
religious press.
Does not God then govern the world
after all 30 yes !; We are told, "but
II. does it by immutablc laws which
He instituted once for all. and with
whose working He never since inter,
fercs."
But in that case, We reply, God can
do nothing for US, save as these law
do it for us, and all the government
we can rest upon, is the government o
natural laws. But what sort Of gov.
eminent is this? for it can neither
teach, defend, chasten or comfort us,
except il a blind, u%nreasoning way
Such a government is quite as liable tt
injure as to help US, They may tel
us, indeed, that in time we shall Learn
the methods Of nature, and adapt our
selves to her laws, and then, living II
harmony with them, we shall be safe
and realize the highest ideal of man
hood. and all Will be well. But on
answer is in that case the worl'
ought to have made some advance il
this direction by this time. The trutl
is, however, that the world has mad
no advance al all-saye as it has mad
it, in connection with, and by the in
spiration Of, a faith in the ~supernatuta
in working, the constant interfering
the careful governing, the wise chast
eniug, and the loving RULE Of the eve
present, ever active, personal God.
But we may ask again when di
God institute these Laws: They wi
say when He made the world" Ye

The Depot OF the u. ID, q IL. /. ~ II"
is nearly completed. The present
structure ~(intendei for a freight de-
pot) will be used for both passengers
and freight till the opening of another
season, when it will be used exclusive
" for freight, the Company proposing
to erect a spacious and beautiful Pas
scngcr Depot, the exact site for which
has not as yet been definitely settled.
The Round House, to accommodate
four engines is being rapidly pushed
forward, and will be finished in about
two weeks. Its dimensions will be
sixty two feet wide in the rear, with a
frontage ftty-six feet, sixty feet deep
on the walls, and through the center
sixty-four feet, giving a slight convex
rcarase.
Ground has been cxeavated for the
building o. the turntabie, but owing To
the unstable condition of the grounds,
the workmen striking a bed of soft
sandstone underneath which a bed OF
the finest Kaolin was found, wherein a
crowbar penetrated to a depth of f'r
feet -work is for the time suspended
till a pile driver can be procured,
The water tank for the supply Of
the engines is completed, the windmill
having been put up yesterday. The
engines can get their Jill now at any
time. The whole work being done
around and about the Depot grounds
looks like business, and will aid ma
terialIy to the appearance Of the upPe'
portion of our city.

far enough to lrd Their tod actually
ut work, unless, indeed, natural law is
their God. And in truth, one would
suppose, did they not deny it, that ina
ture is their God, for, otherwise, We
never find their God, doing anything E;
it is always natures forces and natural
law that are al work.
These reflections lead us TO make
three propositions.
lst God is erer al ,eork in and up
on and by means Of natures forces, 1"
the sane scase, in ,chtch men are at
rori.
Not by a train ofeauses or influences,
which he set going. ages upon ages
ago; but by direct, personal effort,
put forth to-day to supply a demand,
or accomplish a good for which there
was no provision yesterday,
They may reply TO this, and say,
But you limit God, It. YOU allow that
he has not on hand provision for all
possible contingencies. We say he so
arranged things at PRS, that all posi-
Bile necessities are provided for from
the start
We answer that the saving is not
true. 1t might be true, indeed, were
the world simply m aggregation Of
matter,
But since Free Wills como into the
account, w affirm that God cannot
provide beforehand for all demands
and necessities.
To say that God provided from eter-
nifty tor all his children by establishing
certain relations and laws Of matter, is
to Say that God determined e~rery'h'"y
from the beginning, which IS to say
that there Is No trce-will IN the uni
verse but His: which is to say, again,
that there is no sin and no righteous
ness, for these are not possible where
there is not free will,
The truth is, God FREQ children are
constantly starting new trains ~ofeauses
and effects, producing new necessities
every day. Nor do we limit God by
saying these are not provided for be-
fore hand, for if there is not provision
in face. there is abundant security for
it, in his perfect intelligence and in6n.
tie love, And what we teach is just
this, that the all-Fathdf is always on
hand to do, here and there now aud
then, whatever the exigences Of the
particular ease may demand. In Him,
/ VIC may say, it is provided for before
hand, but not in fact, not in things.
For want Of space in these columns,
we must omit here much that belongs
here, and very briefly state what need:
more length.
