The Christ of the Gospels.

 Rev. Mr. Harris Second and Last EOAS"
 course on the Subject.
 Last evening Rev. MT. Harris, at the St. Johns street M. E. church, continued his ser mon on "The Christ of the Gospels, or of the Free Religionists, which ?" called forth by 8 paper read by Wm. H. Spencer at the Church of. the Messiah, in this city, recently. He chose the 21st, 22d and 23d verses of the 1st chapter of St. Matthew as his text.
 It is strange, said the preacher, why so many different notions of Jesus are enter Bible. I have no desire to make Jesus any thing else than what he is made in the New Testament. Referring at length to the pa per reported in the JOURNAL AND COURIER, he said he never read paper that came to so low astandard. He asked twelve questions First, Was Jesus born into this world to accom- plieh any particular purpose-if so, what Answer He shall be called Jesus, that IS, Saviour.
 Second, Are we in the conditions that need salvation if so what are those conditions Answer, we are in sins.
 Third Does Jesus deliver us from those conditions by saving us?
 Fourth, What is the method or plan by which he saves us
 Fifth, Is it not, by false reasoning, unfair and dishonest to accept the Bible fact that Jesus came into this wonld, and yet to deny the purpose for which he came into this world
 Sixth, Can there be any other honest in depreciation of his mission into this world besides that which is announced at his birth
 Seventh, Does the Bible, both the old and q hrnUoht fnD6th6r in the announcement of his mission, bear any other interpretation of that mission besides what is expressed in that announcement III the text
 Eighth, Are we justified in giving any other interpretation of the life and work Of Christ other than the Bible affords? Ninth, Must not then all other lnterpreta tion of the nature and work of Christ be anti-gospel and inidel?
 Tenth, Can we know anything about Jesus save in his biographies of the gospel and IL the bible at large?
 Eleventh. Is it not inconsistent to adopt theories of Christ that are not sustained by the bible standards?
 Twelfth, If we would give right interpreta tions of Christ they must be based solely or the Bible or such interpretations must be illogical, inconsistent and infidel.
 MT. Harris in answer to these question: was very positive in his assertions and was listened to with deep attention by the large audience present.

 Third Congregational Church. A correspondent says: Yesterday was { | lovely day, hamburger of spring The ail was mild and the sun threw it's enchanting rays over the face of nature, reminding us ot the heavenly light that illumined the counte nance of the first Christian martyr. Rev Dr. Dennen preached on the subject O ''Saul's Rejection, I. Samuel, 15:26. Afte | tracing the history and portraying the prin l cipal features in the life of the first King O. | Israel, Dr. Dennen said the Ok Testament seems to have been writer in human affairs. The Old Testamen resembled building half finished. The new represented building all complete. Saul great sin was disobedience. He would no undertake to say whether it proved failing from grace" Certainly Saul fell from a yer, great height to very low depth of depravit. that of consulting tue outlawed witch of En I dor. Dr. Dennen introduced many illustra tions from every day life, religious, socia l and political, to impress the souls of hi hearers, expressed in language clear, ters | and COnViucinp.
