livered another discourse Of the same Ros.
pei type, both at the morning service In
the Academy Of Music, In this city, and at
Tho Christian Herald service at night In
the New York Academy Of Music. His
text was taken from Mark Z, q: zone thing
thou lackest."
The young man of the text was splen
did nature. We fall in love with him at
the frst glance. He was amiable and frank
and earnest and eduoated and refined and
respectable and moral, and yet he was not

ia the words that have read TO You, zone
thing thou lackest." Isuppose that that
text was no more appropriate 20 the young
man Of whom have spoken than II IL APP
