The Influence of Christianity.

This religion has come down to us
through the ages. attended all the
way by righteousness, justice, temp
erance, mercy, transparent truthful
ness, exulting hope and white winged
charity. Never was its influence tor
good more perceptible than now. 1t
has not converted, purified and re
formed all men, for its first principle
is the freedom OF the human will. and
there are those who choose to reject it.
But to the rnass of mankind, directly
and indirectly. it has brought uncoun-
ted benefits and blessings. Abolish
it-take away the restraints which it
imposes on evil passions-silence the
admonitions of lite preachers---let oil
Christians cease their labor Of char
ity-blot cut from history the records
of its heroic benevolence-repeal the
laws it has enacted and the institu.
tons it has built up-let its moral
principles be abandoned and all its
miracles OF light be extinguished-
what would we come to? I need not
answer this question. The expert
ment has been partially tried. The
French nation formally renonnced
Christianity, denied the existence of
the Supreme Being. and so satisfied
the hunger of The infdel heart tor a
time. What followed? Universal
depravity. garments rolled in blood,
fantastic crimes unimsgined before.
which startled the earth with their
sublime atrocity. The American
people have and ought to have 20
special desire to follow that terrible
example of guilt and misery.-Judge
jeremiah s. Black in answer to Inger-
soil.

About five O'Clock p. NJ. q small boy
