The Universalist clergymen Of New York and
vicinity now hold public religious services in the
Hall Of the Cooper Institute every Sunday after
noon. Yesterday the Rev. f. II. Chaplin and the
Rev. E. G. Sweetser oficiated. Rev. Mr..
Sweetser opened the services with prayer,
and Rev. E. II. Chaplin delivered the sermon. His
text was taken from Luke Xviii, 7-"Therefore I

CHURCH OF THE MESSIAH.

The Grace Of Contentment-What It Is
and Why 1t Should he Cultivated
Sermon by the Rev. Henry Powers.
At the Church of the Messiah, corner Of Thirty
fourth street and Park avenue, the pastor, Rev.
Henry Powers, preached yesterday morning, Sc
lecting his text the eleventh Of the fourth
chapter OF Pau's Episte to the Philippians mot
that speak In respect OF want; for have learned,
in whatsoever state am, Herewith to be content"
lie said this was remarkable declaration, con.
siderlng by whom and under what circumstances
it was made. 1t uttered by Paul. the apostle of
liberty and progress, whose life had been one
tinued struggle, who was old. sick and de-
serted Though entitled to the confidence
and respect Of his fellow man, as he
says OF himself, "Of the Jews five times
received 40 stripes save one. Thrice was l
beaten with rods, once was stoned, thrice
suffered shipwreck night and day have been
in the deep. In journeyings Often-n WEAKNESS
and panuness, in watchings often, in hunger
and thirst, in hastings often, in cold and naked
ness." In despite Of all ne could say al have
learned in whatsoever state l, am Herewith to be
content" He could not have said this at any
other time. Certainly not before he was converted
and when he was breathing out threatenin9s and
slaughter towards the saints; not when he be-
sought the Lord to remove the thorn from his
side whatever that might have been; not when he
was smitten on the mouth before the Jewish San
hedru, causing him TO cry out, ''God shan smite
thee, thou whiyed wall" No. lie had learned to
be content through that
DISCIPLINE OF SOUL
resulting rom the struggle between the outward
ana spiritual man, a content which Is never an
original gllt but Is the attainment Of lifetime OF
eHort. The speaker then proceeded to show now
very few, no matter what the condition Of lie,
possess contentment, drawing the conclusion that
Man never Is, but always TO be, best" and then
inquired, What is this grace OF content 7" 1t Is
not the result OF satisfaction with the condition
and outward circumstances Of lie, for, as Is our
dutyswe are constantly striving to improve these.
Health IL better than sickness, wealth than pow
erty, ana as the tastes, the bcnefcent impulses Of
our nature are good, SO are the means Of crafty
ing them. In that civilization which prompts Us
TO effort for the Improvement Of our situation are
we better than the benighted African, who sits
down IN his squalid misery. He argued against the
idea OF happiness being found the fewness OF our
wants. and added satisfaction with our situation is
not to know OF the opportunities for achievement.
He showed by the example Of Paul how the esti-
mate of self declines as the sight Is enlarged. In
sight OF Gods glory the prophet exclaimed, "woe
is me; am man OF unclean ips.n Nothing can
