SEA CLIFF CAMP MEETING BISHOP ANDREWS AND
REV. WILLIAM TAYLOR AT TIE CAMP MEETING.
SEA CLITY, L. l., August IA, 1875
The latest Of sensation this place is the pres
ofRev. William Taylor, formerly OF San Francisco
and well known as the california Street Preacher
until by his evangelistic abors in different parts Of
world for the last thirteen years he become better
known During the few months preceding his return to
America he was hborng with Moody and sankey in
London and attracted mutitndes TO his preaching And
yet there is nothing brilliant apparently learned
about his matter of presenting gospel truthS
He preached here Tuesday evening and Wednes
day afternoon Ho came up here unexpectedly on
Tuesday evening and being invited to preach at half
past seven p NJ accepted, as no says he can preach
at any time on fifteen minutes notice He IL a
fine specimen of humanity, and since he has
been abroad his beard has grown patriarchal and
now reaches down hts breast Thirteen years, too,
have made their impress his hair and beard, and
there ''silver threads among the gold" He
has very powerful voice, capable OF reaching vast
multitude. His forte, like that Of all most of those
eminent evangests who have sprung up lately and
suddenly among us is in tho exposition of the Scrip
lures He has fund of anecdotes and Illustrations,
which no has gathered up in hts travels and which he
makes very effective in tho calculation Of
PRACTICAL THINKS AND DOCTRINES
Of the Bible. For instance, In his sermon here on
Tuesday night John L, 12-But as many
cefved Him to them gave He power to become the
of God, evep many believed His name''-hc
lated experience and conversation no had had with
an intelligent Scotchman In ST Vncents Island in
which the way of faith was made SO plain that way
| faring man though n fool need not therein. He
lkened the case of pentent sinner to that of patient
anxious to DO healed of hts disease But he trusting
TO the physicians credentials rather than to the ply
| stefan himself Now said Mr.. Taylor, tho Doctors
certificate cannot make you well IL you are sick neither
| the Word Of God you if you are sin sick.
Jesus alone can save you But you must receive Him
1t is TO those who receive him that He gives the power
to become of God.
There is quaintness and a crudeness about Mr. Tay-
ior's expressions which is sometimes very striking and
effective Referring to the origin of sin he remarked
that GOD Almighty would never engage in the manuac-
ture of devils He would have something better than
that 10 do. Wednesday he preached "Union with
Christ and gave illustrations to show that when the
believer at with God all things work together for
| good One Of those illustrations story Of gen.
ueman in Russia driving his carriage through place
| infested with wolves Tho evening shades fast
falling ere he reached tho spot which he had hoped to
pass rapidly and safely But his horses tired
and were travelling slowly, when wolf jumped
his path and in striking for the horses the beast became
| entangled In the harness thereby frightening the
animals, who ran at their utmost speed and arrived
safely at their destination where the gentleman killed
the wolf and had his horses lives and his life pre-
served Thus 1t is said Mr.. Taylor that have often
been spurred on to greater endeavor and greater dill
gence by enemies who havo sought my life becoming
entngled in the harness with which the Almighty has
equipped me- Speaking Of
MEASURE FrDKLIrY
which believers should render Jesus no remarked
that the Lord wanted them only TO display the same
devotion 10 Him that good dog led by his instinct
will manifest toward his master He will fight for him
or die for him If need be-
We had able sermon hero on Sunday night from
DR.. Foss, of Harlem, and another from Rev H
Patt Of Brooklyn, on Tuesday morning Wednesday
| night Bishop Andrews gave us some words Of wisdom
based Romans i'll, 31-'Do we then make void the law
through aith9 God forbid: yea establish the law ~
He remarked that the Gospel is preeninenty system
OF faith And yet there are who so about to esab
Tho Bishop gave illustrations Of this and then went
TO explain the proper relation Of the law to Faith and
the object of Christian faith and its operation in the
human soul 1t was very plain, practica! effort, as
indeed, have been all tho sermons preached this
camp meeting When Mr.. Plat preaching Tues
nLusrRAT1oN OF WHAT PATH CAN DO
For three years previous TO last Sunday week he had
been obliged TO walk about with two because OF
injury received IN his knees But at that time, while
visiting at Ocean Grove he cured by lady placing
her hands on his knees IN the name OF the Lord She
declared she had been sent there by God for that
pose and he Immediately laid aside his canes and while
he told the story he gave emphasis to the bystrk
ing his feet on the platform several times He aise
stood all the time while he preached and he did asi
Sunday for the first time within three years.
Thursday Bishop Andrews and Mr. Taylor LEFT here
TO visit Denvlle On J Camp Grove where they
gagged to preach 1t hoped that Messrs Moody and
Sankey would spend few days with as here but while
managers debating the propriety Of inviting
them the Round Lake Camp Meeting people telegraphed
across the ocean and received Of their accept
| ance.
This programme may be changed, however, when
they fall into the hands Of committees and friends in
New York and Brooklyn and other cities II is possible
that they may spend day OF two, at Sea CliG next
month.
Yesterday morning the presiding elders who have
been here and many of the ministers left for other
places and other duties and last night had formal
! wind up of this camp meeting. The Rev. Mr. Mont
gomery, of St. Paups church. Elizabeth N J., preached
the closing from the text eye the hight Of
the world; city that is set a hill cannot DO hid
Let your light shine before that they may SEQ
your good works and gorfy your father which is in
heaven" The discourse was eminenty practical and
elected the hearty response of the audience But the
ardor Of the congregation dampened by tho shower
OF rain that beat and into the tabernacle and hence
the camp meeting for 1875 closed without the usual
prayer meeting and finish of such gatherings It was
however and taken altogether tho best meeting Of tho
series that has been held on Sea Cliff Camp Grounds
To-day great many returned to the city and quiet
reigDs on the Cliff
Our great musical jubilee has been postponed indcn-
nitey and $40 600 organ, which cost less than
tenth that amount has played itself out Tho rain got
at it couple Of weeks ago and gave such cold that
it has recovered YETI and though there Is organ
