GODS GOVERNMENT.

SERMON BY REV. LoTTA CRossLEY AT THE
UNIvERsALIsT CHURCH.
The Universalist church was well filed
yesterday to listen to a sermon preached by
Rev. Lolita Crossey, of Ohio. Taking her
text from jeremiah xii, Is: "And it shall
come to pass, after that have plucked them
out will return, and will bring them again,
every man to his heritage aud every man to
his land"
She said that there is a plan and q purpose
which runs through and guides the divine
government. 1t is also evident that God
hold in His hands the workings of these plans
and He makes them serve His purpose. These
purposes and plans affect the whole moral
creation. God cannot act in contradiction to
His own nature. The speaker then gave q
beautiful outline of what is supposed to be
Gods manner of governing and of His gov
ernment, and said that every one some time
in life has been made to feel this divine
power and influence. 1t is unreasonable to
ask why God has not unfolded some things to
u.s. and we give the best proof of our belief in
Him and His greatness and divine power
when we acknowledge our inability to COM
prehend these things which we do not under
stand.
Enough of the mysteries of Gods acts are re-
vealed to fit each of us to act well our part in
o. this life. The passions of men are not pur-
posely disciplined and human nature has not
been sanctifed yet. We are better to-day
than all the nations which have played their
part in the drama of life, and gone the way of
all life. The chief agencies of Gods govern
ment are still working their silent ways TAX
ing this world of His out and into the light
of liberty and glorious everlasting life. Men
and women are coming out of tho wilderness
of sin, and are receiving the word which is to
save their souls.
1t is not shown in Scripture when Christ
shall have given up the authority to God, but
that time cannot take place so long as there
remains any government in this world op-
posed to that authority and power which
Christ shall give up TO God even the Father.
lie will reconcile this world unto Himself
through His sublime gentleness and love,
when sorrow, sin, and pain shall be no more;
when God himself shall be God in all aud
over all,

"Jesns Knows 1t ALL" Mr.. f. A. Wilson and
DIR. Honsley. DIR. Joseph Taber johnson was
then introduced. and spoke on the temper
ance question from a medical standpoint.
His efforts were directed especially to o refu-
tation of the popular argument that the
use Of alcoholic stimulants is necessary or
good. "There is" he said, "a growing belief
in the medical profession that the so-called
alcoholic stimulants do not really stimulate !;
and after defining a stimulant, he went on to
show that the administration of alcohol to
the man Of wasted energies gives him no
additional power, but rather takes away from
him that which he may still posses. 1t mar
cotizes and paralyzes. Athletes are all well
aware of this, and hence trainers of men for
boat racing, bicycle riding, base ball playing
and the like prohibit their men from indulg-
ing in its use. Brain w6rkers, such as edit
ors and other writers, were cautioned against
the use of alcohol, as, the speaker said, the
kind of work which they do under its influ-
ence, If they do any at all, is not such
as to show them off at their best. Alcohol
is not a food, but rather a poison. An
ounce and half, it may be- in some cases
of extreme exhaustion may help, but
more Injuries. 1t does not protect from cold,
as is sometimes fallaciously asserted.
DIR. Kane and other Arctic explorers have
found out from experience that alcholic
drinks steals away from u man more than his
brains. 1t takes the heat of his body also.
The Swiss guide over the Alps, too, knows
drinks. Nor does the use of alcohol help
men to bear the heat. 1t does not help the
| laborer to perform his work, but decidedly
lessons his muscular power. Alcohol lisa con-
stant damage to the efficiency of the army
and navy. 1t does not keep off disease, as is
sometimes asserted by the ignorant, but
actually and alone produces many of the
| diseases from which we suffer. 1t further
| more makes many diseases which men have
worse than they were before. Many facts
and instances were adduced by the doctor to
prove these assertions. In conclusion he re
| ferred to the hereditary transmission o.
| appetite as one of the most terrible aspects o.
| the whole subject. The talk us whole wal

THE HEAVENLY MANSIONS.

ELEGANT DISCOURSE by REV. CHARLES d.
ANDREWS AT CHRIST CHURCH.
Christ church, navy yard, was we'll filed
yesterday, and the rector, Rev. Charles ID.
Andrews delivered an eloquent and effective
sermon from the text, ''In my Fathers house
are many mansions. go to prepare place
for you" The rector said deep in the human
heart is yearning for home. The weary
bard in his lonely wanderings, who found his
grave in foreign land and after many years
at last sleeps under the shadows of a tardy
nations capitol, embslmed the germ of this
human sympathy in that immortal verse,
"Home, Sweet Home" He touched the
heart chords of the world, and the
echo of the one grand symphony will never
cease. The prince and the peasant alike
pause to listen and to weep for the heart
goes backward to the cradle song Of memory,
the romps of childhood, and the mothers
face. Long years have vanished. New rela-
tionships have woven new charms in this
passing life. Grand achievements and
humber successes have settled around our ex
perience, but let the heart sing of home and
all these vanished years come back, and we
stand again by the old hearth stone. We
hear again the laughter of merry children.
We lay our weary heads once more on the
bosom of mothers love, and feel again the
pressure Of lips that have long been cold and
silent. Home, Sweet Home" brings us back
to old places and familiar paths, or thrills
us with sweet content in our present
joys. Never did Christ more deserve to be
worshipped than when he sealed his doctrines
of love with the promise that there should be
home in heaven. Proprietary rights are
strong in this world, and ownership is a pre-
rogative that man guards with jealous care.
From nations who make war for the conquest
of territory down to the vested rights of cor
porations, who grind labor out of men for
greed and gain, the right to own inspires the
heart of man to tyrannize and to drive.
Thank God thore is no such assumed right
in heaven. The child Of God sees the lights
of heaven in the gloom and shadow Of death
and as the stars shine brightest in the darkest
hours of the night, so the gathering clouds of
dissolution only serve to bring out the ap-
proaching glory. We shall say good night
some day forever in this world Pray God we
shall say good morning in the home of oui
souls in heaven,

THE NEW MAN.

ais CHARACT ERIsTICs DESCRIBED BY REV.
DIR. LITTLE AT ASSEMBLY CHURCH.
At the Assembly Presbyterian church Rev.
DIR. Little preached from the text, III Corin-
thians, v, II, Therefore if any man be in
Christ he is new creature; old things are
passed away. Behold, all things are become
new" Considering the characteristics of the
new man we find his chief attribute to be
that epitomizod in Corinthians, chapter 13,
under the name Of charity.
The new revision CONSTITUTES this word
"love." This quality is peculiar to Christ
aud the true Christian. II is the photograph
Of God himself, who is the source of love. II
is extended to man in his helplessness, and
the follower of Christ will share it with man.
In this nineteenth century we are un-
earthing tho past. Many relics are found in
the excavations at Pompei and other buried
cities of the east resembling our modern tenn
pies and works of art but we have never yet
found the ruins of a hospital, an asylum, or
other charitable institution. History does
not mention their existence previous TO tho
Christian era. The first humane proclama-
tion was issued by the emperor Constantine,
prohibiting intanticide, which had prevailed
in Rome under the religion of that empire;
and II was not until tho eighth century that
hospitals began to bo founded by the kings.
We may "a well look for an offspring with
out iathor ana mother as Tor an institution OF
this kind without Christ aud Christians.
The second specification of the love of the
new creature Is that we oonfne IL not to our
benofactors that IL be disnterested "For il
ye love them who love you, what reward
have your DO not the publicans the same ?'
A man thinks naturally of wrong done
TO him as deserving his revenge, and cares
only for tho oflense against himself and for
its atonement.
The new man In Christ subordinates the
offense against himself 10 its consideration as
a breach Of Gods will.
81 will not think only Of the wrongs done
90 Myself, but those Of my Father" perhaps
the grandest, most comprehensive, aud com
plete evidence Of Gods love is that lie gave
His only begotten Son that whosoever be-
lieved in Him might not perish. The time
OF Christs redemption has ceased, and with
the Infinite Joy Of the Divine Being, He calls
heaven 10 rejoice, "for | have found that
which was LOST God 80 reiOices over His
success that He calls all Heayen to rejoice
with Him.
Man can only rise so high as to call his
friends TO congratulate him upon riches and
honor. Tho new man is also manifest by His
missionary spirit. Every Christian may test
himself by his love for lost spirits.
This characteristic is often feeble in the
average Christian, but IL can be developed
and trained 10 great usefulness.
