Center Church.

Rev. Dr. Anderson, Of Waterbury-TwO
 Fine Discourses.
 4 sermon of strong inspiration, full of cons solation and the gospels power to gladden. the hearts and firmly to fix the Christians ! faith, was preached by Rev. Dr. Anderson at the Center church yesterday morning from Heb. vii, 15, 16, ''There cometh another priest who hath been made not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life' The introduction described a famous French picture of Jesus so Ifelike and truthful as to show at once to the eye his character of the comforter of all mankind. The distressed in every condition of life, the prisoner, tho slave, the moaning widow, the helpless child, are depicted looking to their common benign Saviour in their midst dispensing his comfort and cheer to each and all alike. Besides this gospel view of divine sympathy and aid for mortal woe shown in the eloquent painting of the artist, said the speaker, comes the risen Saviour fulfilling his promise to send the comforter when his mission on earth had passed. 'sThe power of an endless life," Gan ever present help in time of need," ''the same yesterday, to-day and forever" The severest trials of life, it's highest attainment, its only real hap piness no less than distress and suffering, at- tests the "power of an endless life'' to all believing Christians. Divine sympathy in human affairs shown by the life, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was con- trasted with the belief in idols, as those of Baal, and with all other than the true relig- ion. The subject was graphically illustrated l from the Bible stories, the annals of history ! and the best poetry of our language.
 l The church was we'll filled, the singing ex- I cellent and all the exercises interesting and ! impressive.
 The afternoon sermon of Dr. Anderson, as
 that of the morning, was of the same high ! order. His text was David xxxiv 5. The 1 subject was Moses character, his death, and l the penalty he suffered for his want of faith in God, and impatience at the rebellion of | his people. He and his brother Aaron were
 not allowed to enter the promised land. | They were gathered to their fathers-frst Aaron on Mount Hor, and Moses on Mount Nebo. TEe guilt of those in high stations is
 more conspicuous than of those in the com I mon walks of life and is more deserving oi punishment This and many other instruc-
 tive lessons ably set forth by the speaker. His fine delivery, fervent appro
 priate prayers, and reading of the scriptures
 held the marked attention of the hearers tc ! the close.
