The Rev. DR.. Wild, OF the Seventh avenue Meth

the results OF the late Christian Alliance. His text
was from Romans XIV, 22-"Hast thou faithf Have

ethn After q spiritual demonstration OF the COL

boastings OF men and their declarations OF faith as
being mere results Of surrounding circumstances,
the reverend divine proceeded to show the differ
ence between law and principle. The obligations

origin in principle; tney are changing detailed

land in IS42. The first meeting took place in
Exeter Han, London, June l, 1S43. In lS45 the
second convention was held In Liverpool. The
frst real conference, from which they now num-

August 1876. The question which arises in most
minds now is. What good has the Alliance done9

as good as those admitted Law. not lore was the

BEDFORD AVENUE REFORMED CHURCH

Revelation the Open Door OF Heavcn~-
Disastrous Results OF the Teachings OF
Free Thinkers-ScrmOn by the Rev. DR..
Porter.
Yesterday morning the Rev. f. s. Porter. d. d.,
pastor Of the Reformed church, Bedford avenue,
preached q sermon from the first verse Of the
fourth chapter OF Revelations-"And behold door
was opened in heaven"
DR.. Porter endeavored-t to snow that the revealed
doctrines OF human sinfulness, OF the immortality
OF the soul and OF human destiny were responded.
to by human consciousness, and when the light
through the open door or heaven revealed
these truths and the holiness Of God and
the necessity OF escaping rom the consequences
OF sin by trusting in the atoning blood OF Jesus
Christ through the witness OF the Holy Ghost our
own consciousness attested the truth OF divine
revelation. Many were trying to close this door
because they did not like the light. They wanted
.naturasm," which was chaotic emigration
from one quagmire to another; they wanted athe.-
ism as q substitute for Christ. What would be the
door Oe closed; take away the Sermon on tue
Mount, the summary OF all rectitude; take away
all the sanctions OF the suffering, death and
resurrection OF Christ; take away this light from
our literature and hush our songs in the
nursery and In places OF social worship and what
would be lett? Bacchanaan oaths and everything
that belonged to old paganism would take their
place. These free thinkers asked for this state OF
Things In the interest of liberty, but when men
could not stand the laws OF God, which were all
good for soul and body, they had better get out OF
the universe. Without the religion OF the Bible,
what motive could be supplied to philanthropy,
what impulse to statesmansnip, what sanctity to-
lover II the doctrines Of infdenty prevailed civil-
zatlon would be wheeled back and a reign OF des--
potsm would be inaugurated.

INDIAN MATTERS.

Washington, 10. General JEFF. c. Davis,
commanding, has authorized Quartermaster
at Fort klamoth to issue to the Modoc pris-
oners at that post such small quantities of
clothing as can be spared from the supply on
hand to prevent unusual suffering among
them.
The Indian Commissioner telegraphed from
Montana that the treaty is concluded with the
Crow Indians, by which they cede their pres
ent reservation and take other lands on the
Missouri River.
Washington, 10. 4 number of letters have
been received from Quakers and other friends
of the Indian Peace Policy, asking executive
clemency in behalf of the Modoc Indians
lately on trial for the murder of Gen. Candy.
Many OF these letters raise the question that
the trial was illegal under the decision of the
Supreme Court in the Mulligan case. The
civil court being opened, the military tribunal
had no jurisdiction. Another question raised
is that Gen. Candy was killed while acting AS
peace commissioner and not as an officer of
the army in war. The questions will come
directly before the President for his action, as
the court for the trial of the Modocs was or
ganiAed in pursuance of the opinion of the
Attorney General, that the military court had
jurisdiction in the premises.
