SERMON BY REV. DIR. RYLANcE.


Yesterday morning, at tho above church, sermon
was preached by Dr. Rylance on "Modern Revival
ism,' marked both by originality and ability. The
services were intersperscd with the music usual In
the Episcopal SERVICE the double quartet choir of the
church comprising some excellent singers, among
whom Miss Emanuel is distinguished. DR.. Rylance
said in regard to modern revvals eve make con
fessior of faith in one holy and apostolic Church ;
meanwhile are surprised with 100 diforont schools
of theology. and now IL is question Of importance
what attitude wo shall maintain toward them.
The simplest answer would be-We are
right, and all tho rest wrong; but
mat,er-this settling down In apathy Churchmen
are, 1t is true nstinctvcly conservative; they love the
quiet and orderly ways IN which they have been
trained, and this is legitimate and just; but it is
different thing TO say that when egangeliss who
not ordained preach the Word of God they should be
denied comfort aud aid. Must every man who
breaches the Word OF God receive ordinance from a
bishop No the blinded zealot would not claim this.
We should love church and its ordinances hut
will claim that Christ ordains alone. The re-
vivas which have lately taken place have
