"A comparatively Small Congregation
Sermon by DIR. Quint on the .sThcories
and Experiences of Religion
The congregation of Plymouth church yester.
day morning, If compared with other congre-
cations in the City OF Churches, may, probably, be
considered large. Compared, however with that
OF previous vacation Sundays, 1t must be regarded
as small. The feminine element was not there In
force-a circumstance that may be attributable to
the condition OF the atmosphere, Which threat
ened rain rather than to any want OF allegiance
to q church in which, 1t is said that element finds
peculiar favor. DR.. Quint OF New Bedford, occu-
pied the pulpit and preached from the ninth verse
OF the fifth chapter Of the First Epislle OF john
five received the witness OF men the witness OF
God IS greater; Tor this is the witness of God,
which he hath testified of his son' The Doctor
has an aiter.d dinner and sleepy way Of saying

and proceeded from this text TO preach a sermon
on the theory and experiences of religion. Among
other truisms in which the sermon abounded were
the folowlng:-Just as far theory Is practical il
that theory worth arguing about only those
thlngs are essential when are used; truths, in.
deed, that go into the life of man. Comparatively
few theories in religion are OF TINS vital character.

could never be put upon paper. Wnen we see.
what sin really is David's words are no longer a
mystery. The best theories OF prayer are found In
the prayers OF IN Old Christian who has walked
with God THESE many years. Having examined
the correctness and completeness OF the theory
the Doctor proceeded to examine the stability or
the theory. II man were troubled much about
doctrine, and II he were d believer let tIm come 10

Confession and the COMMUNICATIONS
by the Rev. DR.. RYlance.


The subject for the morning discourse at st.
Marks, yesterday, was Confession and the Con-
fessonaL" After the usual services Dr. Rylancc
drew attention to the fact that efforts were being
made both here and abroad to revive supersntions
was claimed that the Church was passing through
sary to give the matter any thought so far as his
dead issue, but the old controversies had been re-
opened and the question could not now be re-
garded with Indifference. The reverend gentleman
then began to dilate upon the subject of ritualism
which, he said, was taken ron the Church OF
Romes ana then proceeded to treat the
question, and contenaed that confession
as brought into vogue by the Ritualists in
England was not In consonance with the
teachings OF the Scriptures. it was renounced at
the Reformation, and the time had come when
every man OF the Church must see TO 1t that such
aouses should not be allowed to exist In the Prot
estant Church. He gave q historical sketch of
what he submitted was the origin OF the confess
sional, ana proceeded to argue that sacramental
confession was not necessary to obtain the forgive
ness OF God for sins committed. lie contended
thas CHRIST was the only mediator to the Father

June 20, 1874.-Dr. r. v. Pierce, Buff
falo, N. Y.-Dear Sir: II Is with q happy
heart that I pen these lines TO acknowl.
edge that you and your Golden Medical
Discovery and Purgativo Pellets arc
blessings to tho world. These medicines
cannot be too highly praised, for they
have almost brought me out OF the
grave. Three months ago I was broken
out with large ulcers and sores on my
body, limbs and face. I procured your
Golden Medical Discovery snd Purgative
Pellets, and have taken six bottles. and
to-day I am in good health. all those
ugly ulcers having healed and left my
skin In q natural, healthy condition. /
thought Of one time I could not be cured.
Although I can but poorly express my
gratitude to you, yet there Is q drop Of
Joy In every word I write. Gods bless
ing rest on you and your wonderful
medicines In the humble prayer OF
Yours truly, JAMES o. BELLIs.
When a medicine will promptly cure
such terrible eating ulcers and free the
blood Of the virulent poison causing
them, who can longer doubt It's wonder
full virtues? DIR. Pierce. however, does
not wish to place his Golden Medical
Discovery In the catalogue Of quack
patent nostrums, by recommending II
to curs every disease. nor does he 30
recommend Il; but what he does claim
Ia this: that there is but one form Of
blood disease that II will not cure, and
that disease Is cancer. He does not
recommend his Discovery for that dis.
ease, yet he knows II 10 be the most
searching blood. cleanser yet discovered,
and that Il will free the blood and sys-
tenn Of all other known blood poisons,
be they animal, vegetable or mineral.
The Golden Discovery Is warranted by
him to cure the worst forms Of Skin
Diseases. a. all forms OF blotches, pim-
pies and eruptions; also all Glandular
Swellings, and the worst form OF Scrofu-
