    RELIGIOUS IXTKLLIGEVCE.
Dr. Stockton’s Forthcoming Sermons.
The following is the substance of the introduction
to the series of Sermons on the Bible, commenced
last Sunday evening, by the Rev. T. H. Stockton,
pastor of the Church of the New Testament, at
Eleventh and Wood streets. The series, as we have
already informed our readers, is to consist of ten
sermons, continued,'until completed, every Sunday*
P.M.,
After the reading of the second Psalm,
efforts to separate God from Mb Christ 3
milers and people saying, “Let us break their bands
-asunder, and cast away their cords from ns," the
preacher thus proceeded : :
Alas for our beloved country! Alas for the land
which, bo lately, was the joy and praise of the whole
•earth !' Alasfor our skies—darkened with the smoke of
■civil war' Alas for ourlulls aud plains, our ileitis and
forests, our brooks and rivers, our spring tiowera and
amumer harvests, and autumn fruits, and wiutersnows;
• till stained with fraternal blood! Alas for our homes,
wild with weeping; our hearts, dumb with woe! Alas
for our balls of State, our temples of religion—planning
in vain, praying in vain! Alas for our camps and fleets;
rfallof heroes, richly supplied, but often poorly led, and
seemingly slaughtered in vain! Mourn, Columbia!
Mourn, Liberty ! Mourn, Religion! Mournupou your
high places! Cry out among the nations: “Pity us.O,
‘ye Powers, whom toe have so often pitied! Among ye
‘all, whose hope was ever so bright as ours—whose
eclip&eofhopewas ever so sudden and sad! Beadlrom
:your thrones, 0, ye chieftains of our-Revolution, ye
■framers of our Constitution, ye founders of our Union,
ye formers of our States, and ye fathers of our Churches’
forget your glory and bliss, and, with Washington iu
grief, bow your honored heads in silent sympathy with
the lamentations of your children!"
0, Father of all; hearns! 0, Sayiourrf all, hearus!
O, Comforter of all, hear us! Give not Thy heritage to
reproach, 0. Lord! nor let the people whom Thou hast
■chosen, and anointed, and erbwned, be put to such
•utter shame! By Thine own right hand, lift us up, 0,
God! and say to the mocking world: “Behold, America
is redeemed! and henceforth her purity, peace, and
power shall be greater than ever; her unity, love," aud
concord shall decline no more!"
Who would not respond to such a prayer. Amen; a
thousand times, Amen ?
And yet, my friends, as Christianity is greater than
patriotism, greater, than philanthropy, greater than all
that issmerely human—being essentially and eternally
distinguished by its divinity as welL as its humanity—
ao there is a civil wav in .progress greater than our civil :
war. It is a civil war as extensive as civilization itself.
It demoralizes and- desolates society throughout all
Christendom. Whether the State be monarchic, aristo
cratic, or democratic,., and whether the Church be
Greek Catholic, Roman Catholic, or Protestant, every
■ where, in Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and - among
the islands of the sen, this greatest of all rebellions is
the same ancient, malignant,-inveterate, insidious, aud
murderous adversary of all that is true, and right, and
good.
Are you'ready toASk, What war, ar'whose war is this?
I answer at once, it is this war of Antichrist; I might
say it is the war of Satan, for I mean Satau; but Satan is
Antichrist. I might say it is the war of infidelity, for I
. particularly mean infidelity; hut infidelity is Antichrist.
I might say it is the war against the Bible, against the
Church, against the ministry, against the Sabbath, and
against the ordinances of the sanctuary, for I still more
particularly mean all this; but all this isthe war of An
tichrist; for the Bible is the Book of Christ, and the
Church is the Church of Christ, and the ministry is the
ministry of Christ, aud the ordinances of the sanctuary,
excepting human additions and perversions, are the ordi
nances of Christ,
0, iny friends, my heart is full; and it is “out of the
abundance of the neart that the mouth speaketh."
Would any know why I have never been in the habit of
preaching political sermons ?-why £ have rarely
-touched political subjects, and never made them sensa
tion themes for the Sabbath? I know the attractiveness
of such topics, especialty in the present crisis; and, in
all probability, this house might be easily-filled to over
flowing by an announcement of such discussions. Ido
aiot undervalue them. I deem them of vast importance,
at a proper time, and In a proper place. 1 have long
burned with desire to let my own soul out, in the name
of God and .in behalf of our country and the world, in
some of these relations,* and have found it hard to re
press the fire. While so many—old men aB well as
young, and even young girls,—are speaking so warmly
m such connections, I, too, might, at least, be pardoned
for attempting to improve some suitablo opportunity in
a similar way. But both in the Capitol at Washington
and here at home, I have always felt that the more eom
• .anon ,and immediately-saving interests of the Gospel
were the most pressing interests ior the sanctuary and
the Sabbath. And if we could only rise to the true sub
limity ard majesty of such themes as these, we should
\ all, preachers and people, be so entranced by their con
templation as to forget, for llio time, that there was any
thing like a battle-field on the face of the earth.
In this brief introduction, I cannot even begin to inti
tmiftte all I think, and wish, and design to seek, and, if
possible, byjhe blessing of God, to secure, in this Beries
ot sermons. But—for one moment—see I I have taken
away the Bibit! Whatnow? Here we are—living,
thinking, feeling—full of life, full of thought, full of
feeling, and the universe is around us! Where is Ihe
sun? Gone down. Wliere is the moon? Notyetia sight.
Where are the stars? There, they shine! Well, what
does Nature say about Christ? about the Bible, theßo'okv
of-Clirist?- or Christ’s Church ? or Christ’s ministry? or
Christ s Sabbath?.or Christ's ordinances of the sanc
tuary? Nothing, nothing, nothing! Not a word—not a
lireaili! Neither sun, moon, nor star; nor the earth
itself has a whisper of Christ. So far as Nature’s testi
mony—so contemplated—is concerned, there is no
ghristl Ilere we stand, iu a universe without Christ ’
Who, then, is with us? The State is here, but the State
knows nothing of Christ. Natural religion is here, pre
tending to know something of God, but utterly ignorant
•of Christ. Philosophy is here, but equally a stranger'
to Christ. And, finally, science, in its three great forms,
is here, but stolid ns the rest. That is, Anthropology
.isi here, but knows no man, of any race or age, like
Ghrint. And Geology is here,'but never discovered the
name of Christ on any of her subterranean tablets. And
Astronomy isthere, but never saw the home of Christ,
or heard of Ins existence, in any of the worlds she has
explored. All is dark; all is dumb; all is death and
■despair!
What now? See! I have brought back the Bible!
What is it? It is a spiritual revelation. It is moral sun- *
rise. It fills the moral heaven ind earth with instant"
. and perfect day. It shows us Christ , on the mountain,
transfigured—God owning him as His Son; ffie dead
rising to attend him; the living looking and /listening,
Admiring and adoring him! The BibJrepresents
Christ; ; and the church of Christ, and .tide ministry of
Christ, and the Sabbath of Christ, aud'the ordinances of
Christ.
. And what now? x ' Antichrist,-gtarts up—-gigantic, of
fended, full of wrath, full of power.
■' Natural religion Bible is false! There
jnaybea God, but; there is no Christ. Let us break
these bands asunder; let us cast away these cords from
ns! f
Philosophy Science accords.
Anthropologygxelaims: Away with. Christ! I want
at leaßt a mingtfed thousand years for the transmutation
of apes intfeKen. Let us live and die as improved ape 3!
. And Geology responds: Away with Christ! I*waut
jnnunHfeable millions of ages for the preparation of the
. earth #or the race of improved apes !
Amp Astronomy caps the climax with the cry: Away
Wi%K Christ: I want an eternal infinitude of space, illu-
Jmned with innumerable suus aud systems, but with
./■"only one world inhabited; and that the earth, with its
/< tribes and nations of improved apes!
f And so, professors yield; clergymen yield; prelates
yield—suggesting the suspicion and the sarcasm that,
after all, some seeming men may be but little, if any,
better than improved apes!
Surely, ‘ 1 He that sitleth in the heavens shall laugh :
the Lord shall have them in derision! ”
After these general remarks, the regular discourse
Vas opened, on the text, “ Thou hast magnified Thy
word above all Thy name, 9 * —Psalm 138, 2.

Gorgeous Church Edifices.—The British
Standard, speaking of the increase of church edifices
in England,' says: A number of them alarm us by
; their sumptuousnesß and splendor; and adds, that
the temptation in that direction is to overdo, and
that probably, in some cases, this error has already
|>een.committed. .
■ The same authority, speaking of the Rev. C. H.
■. Spurgeon, says : “ This distinguished preacher has
left London, for a short trip in Holland; not for the
Sj. t purpose of recruiting his health, but with the inten
\ \ tion to preach twice or thrice a day throughout the
\ great towns and cltieß, and to address the students

•Emperor of the French has decided on giving to the
•Canons of the Church of Salnt-jean-de-Lateran, at

TESTIMONIALS.
FROM REV. JOHNNOTT, D. D.,FROFESSOR IN UNION
COLLEGE, SCHENECTADY, N. Y.
Schenectady, January 17,1862.
Dr. Lighthill— Sir: Having been cured by you
of a discharge in an ear, which hasbeenveryof
fensive of late, and .asfarbackas I can remember
always more or less so ; and having been much im
proved in hearing since under your care, I feel that
I cannot withhold this acknowledgment from any
use it may be to others, especially as I have applied
in vain to my family physician and other physicians
of reputation. Yours truly, JOHN NQTT.
CATARRH CURED,
[FROM rev. P, R. RUSSELL, LYNN, MASS.]
I have been much troubled with catarrh of the
worst type for some twenty years. It gradually
grew worse, producing cough and hoarseness, de
stroying the sense of smell, and breaking down my
general health to such a degree as to compel me to
resign my pastorate and suspend public speaking.
I made diligent üße of the usual remedies, such as
snuffs of various kinds, nitrate of silver, tar-water,
olive-tar, and inhalations, but without any very
salutary effects. Last summer I heard of Dr.
Lighthill’s successful mode of treating catarrh,
visited him, and put myself under his treatment. I
began immediately to improve, and thiU improve
ment has gone on to the present time. My catarrh
has gradually melted away, my cough has disap
peared, my voice has become natural, and I am once
more able to preaqh the blessed Gospel. Let me
advise all troubled with catarrhal difficulties to ap
ply to Dr. Lighthill. P. R. RUSSELL.

New York, January 7,1862.
I have pleasure in testifying to the skill and kind
attention of Dr. Lighthill, who has relieved me from
a troublesome deafness, brought on by a severe
cold. I shall be happy to answer any inquiries
made by persons seeking information at my address
as above, ROBERT CLIYE, Book-keeper.
This may certify that, having been afflicted during
the year 1856 with severe and almoßt total deaf
ness, and having tried the ordinary medical and
surgical aid, under the care of those esteemed as
eminent practitioners, I was induced at last to put
myself.under the care of Dr. E. B. Lighthill. His
treatment was brief and successful. I was com
pletely resto ed, and the cure is apparently perma
nent, I have all confidence Jn D.l.L.’b skill and
integrity ijLthe-diseases he makes specialties.

Dr. Lighthill has succeeded incompletely restoring
my hearing, which was seriously impaired, although
previous to applying to him I was treated by several
physicians without the least benefit. Any further

I hereby certify that I have suffered during many
years from trouble in hearing; one ear at laßt be
came entirely deaf, and the other so bad as to ren

time, and without pain, restored to me the use of
my ears, so that I can now hear perfectly well.

the professional skill exhibited by you in your treat
ment of a case of Bevere inflammation of the throat
and ear with which I have lately been afflicted.

complaint, which several physicians had previously
sought in vain to mitigate.

I have been Buffering for some time with noise in
my head, and deafness. Having applied to Dr. Light
hill, I have great pleasure in saying that he has com
pletely relieved me, so that now I can hear as well
as ever, and am not troubled with the noiso.in .my
head.
I may also mention that a young man named
Henry Laws, staying with me, was aslo afflicted in a
similar manner, and Dr. Lighthill was equally sue
cessful in his case.
JOHN MURDOCK, 197 Fulton-st.

Dr. Lighthill— Dear Sir: I am pleased to be
able to testify to the efficacy of your treatment in the

Dr. Lighthill: I am happy to testify to the com

T>EAD THE FOLLOWING CARE
-*-!> FULLY. —At-tha close of a Course of Lectures, de-*
livered to us. Members of one of thtrmany Classes of
PROF. C. H. BOLLES, who has been developing his dis
covery for nearly four yean , at I*4*o -WALNUT Street,
in tbe City of Philadelphia, iu the application of GAL
VANISM, MAGNETIfcM, and other modifications of
ELECTRICITY, the following resolutions were unani
mously passed:
Msolvtid, That, as we have been eve witnesses for
many woehsm the Institution of Prof. Bollcs, and have
good reason to believe that he has*discovered new prin
ciples m tiie application of fclio different modifleatioasof
Electricity to the various diseased conditions of ihehu
inan system; aud that, in the treatment of different dia
easea, we have been'convinced that, in his baud, as also
his Students, the application of Eleciricity is a reliable
therapeutic; and that he has taught us a new, rational,
£ i scientific Philosophy, and we belfeve the only re
liable theory of disease and mode of cure.
That, In our jadgeaent, the philosophy ad
vanced, and so clearly demonstrated iu the Coarse of
Lectures, is entirely new and original with Prof. Sollos,
and not known to the Medical Profession, aud that the
great success which has attended hi 3 practice iu this city
is alone the result of bis srientific discovery of Electrical
laws hitherto unknown to man, and: that the many
failures of other men iu this city using this mighty agent
is their ignorance of the true principles or Electricity
Resolved, That we.in duty to suffering humanity,and
for the great progress of the human race in approxi
mating to a condition of health and happiness, commend,
the Professor and.his theory and practice to the public,'
and bid him God speed, as we believe his great mission
is one of benevolence and mercy, :and calculated to
benefit humanity ia the only scientific and reliable way
to a final restoration of health and physical happiness.
Resolved, That,we tender to Prof. Bolles our thanks
for his lucid instruction and kind attention to us, iuiivi
dually and as. a class; that he has redeemed every
pledge or assurance made by him, and that in parting
from him he has our best wishes for his happiness and
prosperity, and we heartily commend him to all scienti
fic investigators, and also to the diieased of body or
mind.
Also, Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting
be signed by each member of the class, and published in
the city papers.

ment will be made on aud after the first MONDAY (4th
day) of May inßtant. The assessment will embrace the
following items: .
1. INCOMES.—AII incomes for the year ending Dec.
31, 1862, innst he returned to the Assistant Assessors, un
der oath, in accordance with the instructions of the Com-,
missionerof Internal Revenue, upon the blank fofcms
provided for that purpose.
Each person will be required •to return his total in
come, so far specifying the sources from which it is de
rived, as to enable the Assistant Assessors to decide,what
deductions shall be made therefrom.
HUSBAND AND WIFE.
Where a husband and wife live together, and their
taxable income is in excess of $6OO, they will be entitled
to but one deduction of $6OO, thatbeing the average fixed
by law as an estimated commutation for the expense of
maintaining a family. Where they live apart they will
be taxed separately, and he each entitled to a deduction
of $6OO.
GUARDIANS AND TRUSTEES.
Guardians and trustees, whether such trustees are so
hr virtue of their office, as executors, administrators,
or other fiduciary capacity, are required to make return
of the' income belonging to minors or other porsous
which may be held in trust, as aforesaid; and the in
come tax will be assessed upon the amount returned,
after deducting such sums as are exempted from the in
come tax, as aforesaid: Provided, . That the exemption
of six hundred dollars, under section 90, of the excise
law, Khali uothe allowed on account of any minor or
other beneficiary of a trust; except upon the statement of
the gnardian or trustee, made under oath, that the
minor or beneficiary has no other income from which
the said amount of six hundred dollars may be exempted
and deducted.
INCUMBRANCES, RENTS. AND REPAIRS-.
Interest paid by any person on incumbrances upon tbe
dwelling-house or estate on which he resides, may be
deducted from income; also his payments for necessary
repairs; as well as the amount actually paid for rent or
any dwelling-house or estate which is the residence of
the person assessed.
Persons receiving rent may deduct therefrom the
amount paid for necessary repairs, insurance, aud in
terest on incumbrances upon such rented property. The
cost of new structures, or improvements to buildings,
shall not be deducted from income.
MANUFACTURERS AND DEALERS.
The profits of manufacturers are to he taxed without
regard to the fact that the articles made have already
paid a tax. • : •• • -.
A balance-sheet, such as is generally made by dealers
at the close of each yeaT, it is presumed, will show the
amount of income received. Such debts as a dealer or
manufacturer, has charged as “lost,’’may properly be
deducted in estimating his income, and n afterwards
anything is realized from them, it should be considered
asaportionof his income for the year when received.
Debts lost or ascertained to be bad, since December 31,
1862, should not be deducted from the amount of income
for the year 3862.
FARMERS.
Every farmer or planter will be required to make re
turn of the value of the produce of his farm or planta
tion, without deduction for the labor or services of him
self and his family, or for any portion of such produce
consumedby himself and family. r
The amount paid by any farmer or planter for hired
labor and necessary repairs upon his farm*or plantation,
including the subsistence of the laborers'; and the ma
nure purchased by farmers to maintain their lands in
present productive condition will be allowed.
Farm produce, which the producer has on hand on the
31st day of December, 1862, must be appraised at its mar
ket value on that day.

• 'having been "made ''for' the year 1862.
These returns muse be made to ' the Assistant Assessor
within ten bays, from date of delivery of the blanks.
Neglect, or refusal to comply within the time named,
imposes the duty on the Assessor or Assistant Assessor,
to estimate the income and the tax upon enumerated ar
ticles, with an addition o SJtftyper centum. ,
The entire income taxor every person Will be assessed
at the residence of the.party, and not at the place of bu
siness. _ _
LICENSES.
All licenses assessed in accordance witli the act of
March 3, 1863, will continue in force until the first day
of May. 1864.
** And alflicenses granted after the first day of May in
any year, will'expire on the first day of May following,
and will be issued upon the payment of a rateable pro
portion of the whole amount of. duty imposed for such
licenses; and each license so granted will be dated on
the first day of the month in which it is issued: Pro
vided,: That any person, firm, ~or corporation, • that on
the first day of May, 1863, held an unexpired license,
will be assessed a rateable proportion for the time be
tween the [expiration of the license and ttiefirst day of
May, eighteenXundred and Bixty-four. ”
All persons doing business within this district must
apply for a new license, to run from the date their pre
sent license expires, (which, in most cases, is Septem
ber Ist,' 1363,) to the Ist of May, 1564. Whenever, by the
amendments, new. rates of license are established, the
new license will be assessed at the new rates, and, in all
cases where the present license expires September Ist,
1863, the new license will cover a period of eight months,
and must be assessed to pay two-thirds of the yearly tax.
PENALTIES,
When an assessment for license has been made, upon
neglect or refusal to give the list or make the application
Within the time required, and the assessment is re
turned. in the annual list, the fifty per centum penalty
prescribed in section 11 must be added, and cannot be
remitted, either by the assessor or collector.
■ By .the act, March 3,' 1863, the penalty of two years'
imprisonment is added-to the punishment provided in
former acts, for those who fail to take out license when
required by the excise laws of the United States. .
The former annual assessment was much embarrassed
for want of information .on the part of citizens, with re
gard to the duties imposed on them by the excise law.
It is manifest that, with the knowledge how attained, on
the part of the tax-payer, and with the assistance ren
dered by this circular, that ignorance of the law can no
longer be pleaded by delinquents, in the hope of avoiding
the penalties provided. EDWIN T. CHASE,
