A Three Years Review

at the Humphrey street Church-Dis-
course ON the Lesson of the Fate Of
Charles r. SpauldinG.
Rev. s. II. Bray preached morning ana
evening. In the morning he spoke OF MS
pastorate. He was formerly member OF
the Methodist denomination, but three or
four years ago went over to Congregation
alism and became pastor of his present con-
gregation. He said that after holding his
present opinions for three years and after
a thorough investigation into the tensts OF
the two denominations he Is more firmly
convinced that his transition from one to the
other was correct He likes among other
things the greater permanence that attaches
to the situation of Congregational pastor.
If he had continued a Methodist he would
now probably be transferred. His passionate
here has been very prosperous. Over one
hundred members have been added to the
church, mostly on profession of faith, and
the church has moved from its old quarters
into their beautiful new church and every
thing is in good condition.
In the evening the subject of the pastors
discourse was the death of young Spaulding
and its lessons to young men. The text was:
seThe way of the transgressor is hard" He
said: These words are true yesterday, to-day
and forever. Every law has its penalty,
which its violator must suffer. ''The wages
of sin is death" THE soul that sinneth it
shall die" OF young Spaulding I would say
nothing which he himself would not say were
he here. What was the cause of his down
fall? ''Lewdness and rum, - said business
man to me. 1 would add gambling, that of
which it is said: 1T is as fascinating as a
rattlesnake." The cause of gambling. it seems
to me, is the meagreness of the salaries which
SO many young men receive. Salaries must be
small on account of the pressure of COM
petition. The young men have almost de-
serted the country towns and the manual
occupations which their fathers followed.
They prefer a cIerkship in o city. Every
Young man who leads bad life, began some-
where. He drank his first glass, played his
first game of cards. If he did not he would
never die gambler. My closing words are
those which form the rule of the road, 'Keep
to the right" There is divine impulse on
us which tends to draw us to the right and it
is only by resisting it that we do wrong.
Keep to the right and you will not have to
say, ''This is hard winding up for me, but
rather, sis this death? All is welll''

Sidney Brooks Rogers, q well known shoe.
maker, residing at No. 1875 Hill street, was
| buried Saturday afternoon from his late res
| idencs. Rev. Mr.. Butrick of the First Bap-
fist church offciated. There was quite q
large attendance of friends. Deceased was a
native of Stratford and had resided in this
city for about forty years. His health had
been poor for 30 years, dyspepsia being the
difficulty, on account of which he dieted and
confnsd himself mainly to the role of the
vegetarian, abstaining from meats, finding
that this aggravated his complaint. He was
an Unsuitable reader of instructive books,
papers and periodicals, and possessed con-
siderable fund of information. His friends
deny published report that he was misery
and stinted himself, asserting on the contrary
that he gave literally for one of his means,
both to the church and in cases of personal
need, and often showed a selfs-acriicing
spirit for others, also that so far from leav-
ing $40 600 he died poor on account of loans
made without security and through his kind
iberality. He owed no man anything and
while eccentric, shy, and reserved, he was at
heart an excellent and worthy man of the
best impulses, and his eccentricities arose
from i'll health, and II is stated that his &C.
centric leanings are much magnifed by the
reports of neighbors unacquainted with the
true facts. He was never married and leaves
three sisters who reside in this city. He was
buried in Evergreen cemetery, where he
owned lot. His age was &C years and

The church was filed to its fullest seating
capacity.
At the Second church the pastor, the Rev
Mr.. Blakeslee, in the morning, preceding his
discourse, preached a short sermon to the
children. giving a brief description OF the
life of Christ in his youth. This discourse
interested the older ones of the church as
well as the children. The sermon following
was also very interesting and commanded the
strictest attention from the commencement

Judah p. ssnJamin's Ancestry

lEF0m q heceub washington AossoE'1
Iheard fact or two about Judah p. Ben
iamin's early life the other day which were
new to me. Hia father was small, dark
skinned Spanish Jew, who kept little fruit
shop on Market street, Charleston, s. @.
Benjamin's early life was spent in that shop.
He was educated by the Hebrew Orphan Asy-
lum of Charleston, graduating under the caro-
of Charleston College. He was agrass orphan
by that time. His mother, disagreeing with
bis father, had left her home and gone to
Beaufort, where she opened general country
store Forty years ago she was conducting
it successfully. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin
were devoted adherents to the grand old re-
ligion of their fathers, and Judah P. Benja-
min was educated in it. He has always re-
tanned his respect for his race, although he
married Gentle and has never been identi-
fed with the Jewish Church You remem-
bsr his fine reply in the Senate when he was
tainted, in a hot debate, with being Jew.
'sThe Senator" he said, rising gracefully and
speaking in his usual graceful way, will
please remember that when his half-civilized
ancestors were hunting the wild boar in the
forests of Silesia, mine were the princes of the
earth" The Senate was electrified and the
carping Senator was silenced.
