ligiOus service in a rink OF a circus ten
il some;hing out ct the common theI,
is "A pleasing ipccngruity about IL which
to rany persons is highly amusing
Wit, the philosophers say, consists IA
putting thoughts ;G:c unexpected re-
lations; and the effect of holding a re-
ligious service in a place that is not AT
all appropriate to it, has upon many
minds the effect of wit. They attend
such a service for the same reason that
they go to see the five-legged calf oil
the two-headed nightingale.
These places are haunted not only by
worshipers of the incongruous, but also
by that large class of persons who have
been happily described as ''the camp
stool congregation"-those who always
20 where the newest sensation is, and
who are never truly happy except when
they are in a crowd.
Of these two classes there are enough
in any considerable community to
crowd the largest assembly room that
can be found in the neighborhood. And
when the crowd is gathered, it is easy
to stir up considerable amount of feel
ing. The persons who compose such
an auditory are generally excitable ;
the lively music, the vigorous and pa
thetic appeals of the preachers readily
affect them, and we often seem to see
large numbers of them entering upon
the religious life. .....s .. $500.
Such services, however, come to an
end before many weeks, and then these
new disciples find themselves suddenly
set adrift. Like Daniel Webster on a
famous occasion they cry out in dis
tress, .'Where are we to gO" All their
religious experience has been connected
with the rink or the tabernacle when
that is closed they are not drawn in any
other direction. The influence of locali-
ty upon the religious life is great deal
stronger than some persons think; the
place where prayer is mont to be made,
learned to pray love to betake them
selves; the less cultivated the worship
per is, the less inclined is he to worship
in strange place; the more is he'de-
pendent for his religious enjoyment up
on local associations. Though the
churches all open their doors for these
converts of the rink, very many of them
will fail to enter the churches or, ifI
they do goa few times, all the sur
rOundings are strange to them and they
soon cease to appear in the places |
where they weuld be welcome.
1t is true that MIR. Moody always does
his best to induce his converts to con-
meet themselves with the churches, and
some of them do so; but, after all, the
great majority of the persons who unite
with the churches as the result of his
meetings are those who were regular
wOrshippers in the churches before he
came; while most of those outside the
churches who have been interested in
his meetings either abandon their re-
ligiOn when the rink is closed, or else,
if they join the churches, run well for
a very short season, and soon fall out
by the way.
