ADDRESS OP REV. MR. NILES.
The following is the Address of Eev. H.
E. Niles, delegate from our General Assem-
bly to the General Synod of the Lutheran
Church in Harrisburg, May 12th, 18(88.
Mr. Moderator and Beloved Brethren:—!
perceive the pressure pf business tbst you
have, so tbftt i occupy your attention
but a few moments. It is with pleasure.!
that I appear b,efpi;ovp^ : to-day, as tbp ;riep
resentatiVe of the Presbyterian Church of
the United States, “ Constitution,” or New
School, so callpdj in order to bear to you
their Christian salutations. I take pleasure
in performing this service, because ofdate I
have been called into the neighborhood,
and have had a better chance to make the l
acquaintance iof rfajy#,C|burch. Formerly I
knew you hs a 'ednatituent portion of Jthe
sacramental host bearing the nams of that
grand flUbf Reformation, with! us;
in sympathy, komWafremtig under the same
Banner of the Cross. But during the dast-
m iff sSrVice has Uepnlside
by fltde,iVyLth sopae of your leaders., Auf.es-,
sign# have both floated pa the samp breeze;
we feeard the same general a
front, pur Cpmmander-in-Chief; have jnjtet in
the same conflicts and rejoiced over the
sapte. victories, sp th at now • I claipi th]e
right to greet you as comrades \n the Pf r
vice and to, clasp handp r with yop! in-brqth
erly embracetiXAp|liihae.)„L 'wi- • J
Having naentioned
perhaps I ought to say a word in explana
tion. It is, indeed, true that the greats
family, of in, ttiie
agreement in doctrine,
polity and historical associations, is yest Se-1
parated into various branches, and called
by as.'yiulafe awake,
various steps have been taken for a reunion
and eonsolifttitaMf)# t¥y«PWH@se to be
successful. (Applause.) n We cannot be
lieve that the spirit of heresy-hunting, or
the. habit of estrangement, should be allpWr
ed to keep asunder those! who ought to be
joined together." We look with hope to the
time when all questions of delicacy shall be
adjusted; when all,feelings of distrust shall
be dissipated, and when, through the Pro
vidence of God, there shall be one harmoni
ous Presbyterian Church— a Church
al in her extent, liberal in her policy, ag
gressive in her movements, and fraternal in
her sympathies,-always ready to co-operate
w.ith yours and with sister .denominations,
in all efforts for the evangelization of men
antfthe glory of God. At present, however,
I can speak for only one of six or eight dif
ferent sections' bf : Ptesbyterilths. As the
representative of twenty-three synods I
extend to your General Synod assurance of
heartfelt'and increasing sympathy. In the
name of one thousand eight hundred and
seventy mlnlsters-I give you and your- fel
lows the watchword of Christian faith- In
behalf of one hundred and sixty-five thou
sand.members, I greet the rank and file of
your division Of the Grand Army, and say to
you, Soldiers td the; Cross, all hail 1” For
an pqual qjpub'er' df children and youths in
our Sabbath-schools, I shout to the noble
co.mpfl’Uy of cadets whom you are also train-:
ing for the missionary service and bid them
good .cheer. May the God of ..our fathers,,
brethren, be with ua in these latter days.
He who raised up Zwingle and Luther and
Calvin and Knox to take * their successive
places in the line of appointed development,
and to contribute,' each one, his part in fur
thering the train of influences which have,
blessed the world —influences which may
be traced down through the landing 6f the
Pilgrims and the Declaration of Indepen
dence to the blessed revivals of religion in
later times and to the grand outbursts of
Christian patriotism in our day —may that
same Almighty Deader continue With us
and guide ns on in the march to victory !
We bid you God speed in every enterprise
for His glory.
We love to hear from you the same an
cestral rallying cry of justification by faith
in Christ alorte, and we pledge to you our
hearty co-operation in furtherance of that
which the .Reformers felt was “ articulus
stands vel cadentis eccleside.”, .rejojpe
that you as a body are
against those tendencies to formality and
ritualistic observances which are being re
produced again from the dark ages; and
we are encouraged by your sympathy to in
sist that the business of ministers and
churches of the House of God is not to pro
duce an imposing effect and dramatic imita
tion of worship, but it is to worship -the ; '
Father of Spirits and the Sayiourof men in
spirit and in truth. We appreciate your
efforts in the cause of Christian Education,
and trust that all your institutions of learn
ing may be increased in numbers and influ
ence proportionately to the vastness of the
work to be accomplished and as becometh
the church which has always protested
against that most baUful heresy, that “ig
norance is the mother of We
admire your hffobts for the production of a

you that the*agency pt the press in4||'pub

in support of the ipih|fe|aßee reform, recog

to separate: themselves. fr,pm the drinking

which Satan employs for the present |nd

prayers ascend in concert with our’s, that this
land of our fathers, consecrated to God, as
the home pf liberty and religion —for which
in the dark days of the revolution they shpd
their blood, and for which again in the re
cent bitter struggle for National existence
so many thousands have suffered and died,
that this our beloved land may not be given
over to the delusions of error, waste and
peril and continual discord, nor to the pre
valent control of ungodly men, but tlial the
free principles of the Gospel of Christ may
be more widely diffused, and tjhat our cher
ished institutions of justice And-religion may
be perpetuated to the latest generations.
[Applause.] We no|e Tjfitjj special satisfac

taken in behalf of those who come w> our
shores fresh from the Fatherland, who need
to be met with the warm-grasp of Christian
sympathy, to be directed to their "Western
and Southern homes, to be supplied imme
diately; with religious teachers, to be the
means' bf a true civilization, b.u,t.]v|io, when
thus properly educated, we' believe lire pe

the Home i Missionary work, brethren, in
all its' aspects and in all its parts, is of un

lead men back to the simple truths of the'
Bible; of the Protestant emigrants from'
Britain, and Germany to plant here in
America the germs of a purer and freer
faith—-so now I believe it is one primary
duty for every Christian in the land to

Christ. In that great basin beyond the
Mississippi River; where the wave of popu

ghenies, naeets another rolling. East ward

there the decisive battle between Christian

it is, that consequences of untold magnitude
depend on the question: How shall the
foundations of society there be laid ?- Cer
tain it is, that tha friends of a pure civiliza-i
tion have no time to lose, bat all together
should resolve to use immediate, persistent
apd unjiriqg to establish everywhere
in that mighty region the institutions of the
Gospel of Christ! .
We are glad, Mr. Moderator, that you are
Still in the field. Let fhere be go strife be

“ We are living, we are dwelling,
In a grand and awful time,
In‘ah age on ages telling,”
when wo have no time to waste in criticiz
ing each others’: methods. We have no en-.
ergies to expend in hindering each others’
fuccess. We inherit alike those gv.apd old
doctrines of the Reformers, truths funda
mental in all creeds, as oid as Christianity
itself If on- some minor points we do not
think exactly alike, that need not matter,
90 long as we can rally around one common
Standard, bearing t&.e motto, the charmed,
words, “ Jesus Alone I”—so long as. our bat
talions: keep step to tbe same music of Di
vine Providence —so long as we can bear
down in solid columns against th e same ser
ried hosts ol error and sin;[%pplause,] that
peed not binder us, so long as with Saint

ity.’', There is one body and one Spirit,
even $8 ye,are called .in .one hope of your
calling; one Lord, one: faith,.one baptism,
one God and Father.of all, who is above all,
and in you all.” Oh, that believers of every
name might better understand those signi
ficant words! . ■ _ -
Though in the dim twilight of former times,
str.ugglin g.amidst the mists of ignorance and
prejudice, different denominations may some
times’ have mistaken each othcrs’ emblems’,-'
and iti the excitement of the conflict turned
their weapons.upon their,own comrades in
arms; now, when the sun of Christian char
ity is fairly risen, there can no longer be
any excuse Jor such blunders. Recognizing
each others’ position and each others’ zeal,
we may claim fellowship with each others’
success. If same theological Erricson
I among: you shall give us a monitor which
shall Bear down upon the enemy with un
heard of power, we will Also" adopt it in
place of our cumbrous men-of-war; and if
any in our ranks can invent a needle gun of

- old musketry that Lias heretofore been. in

seeing eye to eye and His serried hosts
moving forward harmoniously. So shall
the day oi'conflict go on, until that evening
time of light, when the noise of battle shall
have passed away and gone down out of a
peaceful sky, where wave the banners of the
prince of'Peace, shall float the echoes of ce
lestial music announcing that the kingdoms
of the world have become the kingdoms of
our Lord.

OUB, COSSETS
are now so well known for then- superior Shape, Material and
Workmanship, that it is, perhaps, unnecessary for ns to apeak of
them further than to say that we have greatly enlarßecl onr assort
ment of styles, both of onr own make and inipor.tatkm, and can now
eatelv dely competition. It may be well said that
In Mrs. Shekmak's Corsets, ladies And
The laws of Health with Fashion's taste combined;
Supporting equally each separate part.
They cramp no action of the lungs or heart;
Ami nu injurious ligature is placed
To ninr the flexture of the natural waist.
Thelr fit is certain—and wliut’il stire to please,
In all positions there is periect ease;
Hie figures of the young.tliey help to fprm,
Aiding and not repressing every charm;
Irregularities of shape they hide,
pn that liv none can slight defects lie spied,
While e’en a figure, which is understood ,
As being-‘had, ’ nmylii tlieir help seem girai;
And matrons wearing them a boon will gain,
Tlicir early symmetry they’ll long retain.
