HELPFUL CHURCHES.
ELOQUENT SERMON BY THE GREAT
BROOKLYN PREACHER.

A Reply to the Query, what Is the
Church?"--It Should be Great. Prac-
tical, Homely, Omnipotent Help-The
Business of Worship.
BROOKLYN, Oct. 15.-The character of
the hymns given ont by Rev. DR.. Tai
image in the Brooklyn Tabernacle this
forenoon called for the unusual power
of congregational singing. Organ and
cornet and the voices Of the thousands
of worshipers made the place resound
with music. The subject was Helpful
Churches" the text being Psalms Xxx. 2,
"Send thee help from the sanctuary"
If you should ask 80 men what the
church is, they would give you 80 differ
ent answers. One man would say, 1T is a
convention of hypocrites,' Another, ut
is an assembly of people who feel them
selves great deal better than Others"
Another, 1T is place for gossip, where
wolverine dispositions devour each 9th
er." Another, ut is place for the cul-
aviation of superstition and can't" An
other, 1T is an arsenal where theologians
go to get pixies and muskets and shot"
