Street Preaching.

EDITOR HERALD: AS we know you
to be a believer in the Bible, we were
surprised that you evaded the acknowl-
edgment of that fact in your reply to
an "open letter." and for that we felt
that you richly deserved the lambast-
ing which Mr.. Allis gave you. We
do not know Mr.. Moody nor his ante
cedents. He may be, and we are in
clined to think he is, doing good; but
as to the ordinary street preaching, we
are decidedly opposed to it-especially
such as it has been our fortune to wit
ness. Indeed, we do not believe there
are but two circumstances that will
justify it. The first is where the
churches and all acknowledged places
of worship are closed against the advo-
Gates of reformation. Such was the
case on the Day of Pentecost, when
Peter preached to the multitude, and
5000 souls were converted-when Lu-
ther was deiied the churches in Ger
many, and Mr.. Wesley in England.
Secondly-In the case of very pop
uar man after whom the multitude
will run, and no hall can be found
large enough to contain them. Such
men are justified in preaching in the
market places, or on the public square.
But there is no excuse for every little
enthusiastic fanatic, who has not tai
ent enough TO teach junior class in
Sunday school, to mount curb stone,
and harrangue the civil people, who
are attending to their business. The
result of all such work is the degrada-
tion of religion and the bringing it
into disrepute. The jeers and SCOTS,
Of the skeptic, and profane
on such occasions, will over
balance all the good resulting
from what the fanatic can say. We
love the Bible and we love religion,
and we deprecate anything which may
bring them into disrepute. This is a
delicate subject and very few are will
ling to speak their opinions in regard
to it. But, notwithstanding, we want
every man, woman and child to enjoy
their own religious opinion freely and
fully; yet if we were authorized We
would take these tomtit preachers that
are spouting on the corners Of the street
and walk them straight home, and
while on the way we would kindly
tell them, "You are damaging the
Masters cause" B. l.. PEEL.

Harmo Action of
the Delegates.

SAN FRANCISCO, July lst.-Conven-
tion assembled at l0:30 this morning,
the enthusiasm evoked by the nomin-

in which he said he differed from Bid

The Beecher Case.

This case throughout its long trial
has developed more legal, or illegal,
novelties than were ever imagined. In
many respects it is the greatest trial
of the worlds history. In ancient
times SOLOMON decided the ownership
of baby by little strategy, which
showed more the power of absolutism
than of law. In modern times we have
had the trial of WARREN HASTINGS
and AARON BURR, both remarkable
cases. But the BEECHER case has no
parallel ia the past and may have no
like in the future. By the power of
intellectual genius HENRY WARD
BEECHER had become almost a god,
when he was in an instant thrown from
his moral pedestal, and by man
far his inferior in ability and social
standing. We would institute no
comparison between BEEcHER and
TILTON, because great guilt separates
them, and in running BEECHER TIL
TON has overwhelmed himself. At
this late day unanimous verdict will
not restore BEECHER to his former
high position. Conspiracies of MoUL-
TON and TILToN may be discovered,
but still it will not elevate BEECHER
to his almost venerated position. The
trial has developed so much of christi
anity of man and SO little of the re-
ligious truth, that we fear BEECHER's
day of usefulness is over. MOULToN
and TILToN, and Mrs. TILToN
even, were hardly interested in the
case. Throws supposed wrongs,
MoULTON's Sights and Mrs. TILToN's
character were forgotten, and the
world gazed only at the central figure,
BEEcHER, who, by his eloquence,
had moved the world. BEECHER was
on trial, and the world was anxious to
see if the eloquent preacher, the facile
writer, the poetic thinker, had squared
his conduct by the Christian religion,
and we are afraid, despite unani-
nous verdict in his favor, the verdict
of the world and the church will be
against him. The world demands that
the preacher of the Gospel shall be
an exemplar of its purity and perfec-
tion, as far as humanity will permit.
In this BEECHER has failed.

The Call commercial report, dated
the 29th inst. says:
The steamer Orizaba arrived this
morning from the South, with the
first considerable shipment of San
Diego and Los Angeles honey. In
April, owing to the light rain and con-
sequent small crop of blossoms, it was
thought that the yield for the season
would be very light. Since that time,
several of the heaviest producers re-
port the prospect very much improved
and that the crop will equal that of
last year. If the season had been en-
tirely favorable, the production would
have shown heavy increase over
last year, when our shipments to New
York, Boston and other Eastern mar
kets were twenty car loads, or 4OO, 900
pounds.
