CHURCH OF TIE COVENANT.

The Bible nm All-COnvincing Proof Of
Christlnnity-Misbcli In It's Applica-
tion-Duty or Christin ns-Sermon by
DIR. Chaplin.
The Church of the Holy Covenant, corner OF Park
avenue and Thirtyfourth street, was yesterday
morning moderately well filled. After the usual
exercises OF prayer and the reading Of the Scrip
lures were concluded, the choir sung the 294th
hymn. Its rendition was magnificent. High
above the rest rose the voice OF the soprano, now
trembling with melting tenderness in supplicaton,
now growing clear and full, triumphant In conf
dence. Succeeding this came
THE SERMON.
In the absence OF the regular pastor, Rev DR.. II.
b. Chaplin, OF Rochester, occupied the pulpit His
subject was his text, which was Luke xvi. sl:-
"And he said unto him. III they hear not Moses ana
the prophets, neither will they be persuaded
though one rose from the dead.'u In the parable
OF the rich man, Lazarus he began, is taught that
In tine future state there is either Joy or misery.
Here we may be rolling in wealth, there penniless
here beggar, there prince But what are earth
y riches or poverty They are but for an hour. Let

In this church the Rev. Father Superior orthe Re-

the commandments or GOD, preached yesterday

commandment He said it was, Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God, and thy neighbor as myself for the
love Of God;'' and He concluded that these two
commandments embraced the whole law. The
reverend gentleman dweh for time on the great
mandment in connection with IT, he said that by
the word honor was meant respect: Thou shalt

It also implies the greatest reverence towards

to honor our parents and those who hold the place

will love them in fs~
TIME AND ETERNITY.
On the other hand God pronOunces terrible curse
against the child who disObeys his parents or re-
fuses TO respect them. Even Pagans in old times
lnculcated this duty Of love to parents. The Holy
Fathers, st. Cyprsan and st. Cyril, declared that
every act OF dsobedience shown the parents Is con.
sidered by God as manifested towards Himself and
every act OF respect exhibited towards parents He
considers as paid TO Himself, and lie rewards and
Furnishes accordingly No matter whether parents
are good or bad, the law holds that they must be
Eonorcd and children must love them. The very
reverend gentleman then said he wOuld consider
this commandment next Sunday in its relation to
the civil and ecclesiastical authority.

The plnst nn interesting question would
be- What becomes Of the successful men ?

The reason is clear. The father laid the
basis Of business one way and the sons
build another. Men who earned their
fortunes by hard work, by diligence; that
knew sixteen hours toll, BY personal at
tention that were their own book keep
ers, salesman cashiers and porters, are
followed by sons who do as little ms possi-
Bile who delegate TO others all the work
they can, and who know more of the road
than Of the ledger. Famous hotel men
were gentlemen, men OF intelligence, men
who were the equals of the beet in
the land, and who never sunk the
gentleman in their trndc. Young men
who fling the example of their sires to the
wind, lind it easy TO squander valuable
name, run through II fortune quicker than
it was earned, and find themselves, while
young, at the point their fathers started.
One thing is quite marked in New-York.
1t is tho fact that the heavy business is get
ting into the hands of foreigners. The
heavy importers, the great bankers, and
much Of the trade Of value is slipping out
Of the hands OF the Americans, as the trade
of England got into the power Of the
