Bishop Nicholson, of the Episcopal
diocese, of Milwaukee. made mis- an
nual visitation to Trinity parish of
this city, on Monday, April 80. In
the evening he preached in Trinity
church and administered the apostolic
rite of confirmation to class of
twelve persons. His sermon was on
the Christian doctrine of the resurrec-
tion of the body, and was mastery
presentation of the Christian argument
as opposed to the objections of MIA !
so called scientists. He emphasized
the difference between what is false
and what is true in science, and clear
IL proved that the scientific idea of
the indistructibility of matter is an ar
gument in favor of the resurre ction of
the body; and that whereas the immor
tality of the soul was not essentially a
Christian revelation, having been
taught by pagan philosophers-that of
the immortality of the body was essen
TALLY a Christian truth, which was re-
vealed in the resurrection of Christ;
and that the whole Christian doctrine
is, the salvation and immortality of
both body and soul. From this he
drew the practical lesson that keeping
the body in temperance, soberness and
chastity is one of the highest obliga
tions Of life. The sermon was deliy-
cred without notes, in the bishops
forcible manner, ard was listened to
by an overllowing congregation, many
being unable to gain admittauce. A
pleasant reception was held at the
rectory Immediately after service, to
meet and welcome the bishop. 1t was
