CENTER CHURCH.

The Annual Address to Yale Theologl- l
 cal Students by Rev. William HI l
 Fenn, ID. D.. of Portland, Me at Gem |
 ter Church Last Evening. |
 Center church was we'll filled with people | last evening, among the congregation being most of the members of the theological school for whom seats were reserved in the body of the house. The occasion was one of
 special interest, being the annual address to
 the members of the seminary, which was
 given by the Rev. William H. Fenn, D. D.,
 of Portland, Me. President Porter, IL. D.,
 presided, and Mr. Tenn made a very inter-
 esting and able address from the subject,
 'sThe Relative Power of the Modern Pulpit
 as Compared with the Old Time Pulpit"
 during which he said: "There can be little
 doubt but that in old times the preaching
 was more meat and drink to the people than
 at the present day, and sermon in those days was a great and awful truth, and was felt as such by the people of those days, whose inn aginative powers were great The preacher in those days was elected such for life to rule over one set or class of people, and laid his plans we'll with the future, but now a preacher may be hele' one day and there another, and so may have no op- portunity of becoming acquainted with the people over whom ne IS plac6Q or IuclA ways. There is a great want that God should be l brought to the front. We miss the demands and authority of God. Not that the truth is not told, but that the authority is not with 1t. Religion is placed so much on the human side, son little on the objective that it looks l to superficial thinkers like imposture. The | early volumes of sermons on heaven made | the Christian readers eager for more on the | subject, now heaven seems to have gone | further off and become almost an astronomical problem and we fly low and don't like to talk about things we don't know much about. | That heaven has somewhat entered into the earth is true not only of spiritual teachers, but men in general also. When treated l as specific aud personal, men do not frighten at the old time imaginary interpretation of heaven or hell,
 and as the old timber drops out men Of I stronger timber are put in as support In the | presentation of the truth. We remember
 how in war we give authority to get better
 and greater authority, and 1 have no doubt
 myself but what the modern pulpit is nearer to God and Christ than the old-time pulpit
 was, and that the present pulpit will accom-
 plish it's end more successfully than the old. Ours is a more just and conscientious way ot
 handling the scriptures than the old way.
 Rev Dr. Fenn, who is an able speaker, then
 showed the advantages of the sermons ot the present day over these of former days.
