Fox CHARITY's SAKE.-Tbe Rev.
r. Semple Rowe, of Washington
street Methodist Protestant Church,
Baltimore, preached on Sunday a
sermon on "a Coolies Hop in the
Name of Sweet Charity" in which
he handles without gloves the great
Charity Ball given in that city a few
lights ago, at which the President Of
the United States, the members ofhis
cabinet, and the wealth and beauty
of the country were present. "A
parade Of piety," said the preacher,
'and an osientation of almsgiviDg,
however meritorious the object, are
things neither Of which indicate a
well-cul,ivated religious taste or even
refinement of manners, ner are they
in place anyw here or under any cir
cumstances. The one is Pharisaism,
aud the Christ calls the other the
practice of bypocrites, and both of
them are the very reverse of that
v hich they go about T., show and ex-
hbit to the popular eye and ear; nor is
this all, but they completely destroy
whatever of virtue may seem to be
represented by such summing
Take heed that ye do not your aims
before men to be seen of them; other
wise ye have no rev ard OF your
Father hich Is in Heaven. There
fore, when thou doest thine aims, do
not sound trumpet before lhee," &c.
This is strong language, but not
more perhaps than the ostentatious
display of wealthy gsaudure exhibited
ON that occasion, called for.
