THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHIL ADELriIIA MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 18GG. Bpcta, that bu brought anything but honor upon tho ChilHtian name. Having, as the Kvaneclical dcnominatiDnsdo, a common faith, an1 ciitiRirnr; to the siune irn at docriuea tbat are the only true and ctTocilve weapons with whioh to make war against the etronholdB of pin In the earth, the idea ban fastened itself noon many minda that there U every reason for a htghor and more complete unity tn the various rank of Chris's army. Hut whl e jiood men have been formine and applying their tneoriea lor the accomplishment of this most demral.lo end, the work has been silently yet steadily advancing In the hundreds of association, containing thousands of votm men, scattered over the Protestant Christian, world. Here Methodic, Baptists. VreM tenans. Reiormed Dutch, Bpiecopalians, oou Rregationallsia, and Lutherans have met, proved together, labored ,thcV the I orrt each other only as the followers of t he Lord Jeu Christ. Their ntteuliOn has been Bbwbed Droarnest desires to save joum? men Iron, the errors and vices to which they are exposed and to extend in every W iup KodPcmer'B kingdom. Imperceptibly heir 1 S nave Seen together In Christian fellowship and atleotlon. The I arklM of nam w prejudices and jealosies have laen fromhelr minds. . While true to all thVraon"hle claims of their respective deno.nl uatiX they have ben led by the natural cul t nre that comrs from concerted and earnest rtlon with Christians of ever name, to take broad and liberal views of the desisns of Christ and ot the work of His spiritual Church on the earth. They have been in positions to see that tun bearing another denominational name codd love The Lord Jesus Const as sin rerelv as thcy-could labor with as pure desire and as earnest a zeal . as they to "ave immortal souls, and opuld strive with as much aidor as was ever kindled in their hearts, to be prepared for death and secure the rewards of heaven. Indeed, many of them have been better fitted by their associated work and ex por.ence to Inbor successfully In tbelr own indi vidual churches. Haying been trained to re--rd the spirit more than outward lorn of re iicion having been dealing with the vital truths and great duties that crow out of Christianity, they are prepared to ren dor the most efticient service in carrying out the best plans for the extension ot their own branch of the Church. And lroun those asso ciations we have reason to look for a more ex tended and consolidated unity for the future. (!od may uee them as a prominent instrumen tality lor marshalling His hosts tor the great and final battle with the powers of evil, that shall precede the dawn of millennial glory and the universal triumphs of the Christum faith. Speaking of the work of the young men, h said the fruits of a Soun$ Men's Christian Associa tion In this department are bo varied and abun dant, that it is impossible to present more thau a partial view of them within the limits of this discourse; Through their efforts to save young men from the power of vk-e and lead tlieiu to Jesus; through the systematic visitation of many at theirfbouses: and through the agencies that they brought to bear, young men arriving in the cities were placed at ouce under Christian innuences. They have achieved a blessed work, the macnimde bt which cannot be described. Could the history of the Association at New York, or the one at Boston, or at Philadel phia, or Chicago, be fully writteu, the commu nity would be surprised at the results of the labors of these Christian young men. For ejample, the New York Association ha been in existence for fifteen yeurs, and besides the result of previous years, during the last two a great work has been accomplished for the moral, social, and spiritual welfare of the young men and ot others in that great city. According to their report, they sustain a Bible class for young men, ten ieliiotn weekly services, besides five weekly meetings amoug the Germans. They issued five thou atiud circulars to the clergy of their own and adjourning Stutrs, urging them to turnisii young men coming to the city with letters of introduction to them. They also inserted advertisements in the various re ligious papers, calling the attention of persons le.-nding out ot town to the objects of the asso ciation, and asking them to send the names of any young men they desired to have visited and brought under religious inilucnee. These measures have resulted In immense good. Young men have oeeu visited, with the most cheering results. Multitudes have brought letters Irom the country, and been assigned to good boarding places, and placed in good busi ngs bituailous. The Chairman of the Employ ment Committee (V. F.Lee, Esq.) devotes a part of every day to this good work, and it has become a most important agency for the mer chant as well as the clerk. Christian mer chants make application to Mr. Lee lor moral and Christian young men, and he furnishes them. Thus the interest of the mer chant is awakened in the association, and tne young men are at once brought under the best social and teligious influences. During the past year hundreds of young men have thus been placed in good situations. These men have come from every part of the United States and now foreien luuds, even from Turkey aud Armenia. Altogether this Association expended this last year $10, ODD, yet it is proposed to erect a large and eleeant editice at a cost of $250,000, lor the morul and religious beuetit of the youug men of the city. The idea iB to present attrac tions that will counteract the evil influences of the demoralizing amusements and temptations of the city. A grander plan thau this cannot be executed! Already $200,000 ha.ve been sub ttcribed to the enterprise by the princely mer chants ot New York. The membership is 1300. The lait report of tnis Association says: "In no year of our history have we accomplished as much legitimate work as in the year just closed." The Boston Association has a membership of 1500. From their report we learn that hun dreds of young men have found the Saviour at thp prayer meetings held by the association, an 1 each month adds to the number. Prayer meetings are also held on board the receiving sh'p Ohio, btationed in Boston harbor, every evening, resulting in frequent conversions among the sailors. A band of nine youug men go forth every hunday morning to labor among the seamen on other vessels in harbor. A class for literary improvement meets on alternate weeks, tor declamation, reading, essays, and debate. The social element is largely introduced into the association, with most excellent etlect. The rooms are spacious and elegant, aud are visited oaily by about eight hundred persons, who come to read the papers and periodicals, and to take books from the library. The library num bers 3550 well-selected volum?8, such as are calculated to exert the most benetlelai influ ence upon the mind and heart of the reader. Twenty associations reported last year libra rlta rviifaiiinLT nil lurirreeute of 32,105 volumes, What an Instrumentality we have for good in frit i a maci rvfr annn a Christian literature I And wimt a. rnntmst does it present to libraries made un " of notitlous works, silfv novels, and fhZrallz nmtiv" ot bstlouable pro- the demoralizing narratives 'TltA PSi1taila1iYin.

Since that time i...AraA k.. tpUnn their rank with the fifteen hundred, making a force of two thousand .n iha lihrarv nnmhnra over three thou sand volumes. Many young men have been aided In obtaining suitable employment and n...nrtahla homes. The sieW have been Visited, th nAprlv relieved, and mill of those who were walklnn in the ways of death have been iai lnt.n the nathi of life and hanniness. Lite rary and social meetiugs are held, and the mnnthiv meetmds and Quarterly reunions are occasions of great Interest. Classes have been estaniisneu iu mc i iuub tuutuaKCB Greek, and German, and Instruction Is imparted v nnmnetent nrotessors. The Chicaiio Acbociation Is dolnsr a ereat work in all departments. According to their report a year ago, they had obtained situations the pre vious year for sixty-one young men and seventy boys, ana permanent ana temporary employ ment for einht hundred and sixty-seven females. fiwlr TiAHrdinff.hniiae Committee had obtained auitahle nlaeea for all the etraveers who had ia them. They sneak of tho previous year (196) 68 oue f rare abuudant labors and in pater Drosperlty than any year since the organization of the Association. Yet the Ust year (1806) surpassed that. They then afforded relief to five thousand families, and procured niiua tlnns for three thousand persons. What a uplcndld spectacle, tbat cjty presents I This A v sociatlon, a It were, is erecting ao arch over the gate of the city; and over thousands, as they come within the influence of Its power. In the department of city evangelization this asso ciation is doing an immense work. In this de partment they are most effective nnd successful. For eight years they have sustained a dallr union prayer meeting and a Saturday evening social prayer meetinir. They report the whole number of mission schools In ibo city as I containing 0543 teachers and scholars, tract distribution U carried on more sucorssruuy jihnn ever before. In response, to their appeal to' the churches, liberal contributions nave been mndo to carryforward this work, wnile many active and devoted Christians have addpd their service, to the work of personal vislta- Permit me to read an abstract of a letter in regard to one of the meetings and good works ot this association. The correspondent says: I am happy to rofo' t0 dollghttol meeting held here last tveniua- under the auspices oi the Voung Men's Christian Association ot this cltv. It hold in on ol the dining-rooms of the Sherman House. The pastors of all evangelical denomina tions were quests. The object ol the meeting was to draw the tide of general Christian lowing into one channel, and it was fully realized. That there was secondary purpose, to stir anew the sympathies ot the chinches to,- the Association, u doubtless true. Jl.e Association is accomplishing a no bio work lu Chiearo. Ever seeking to act as an auxiliary , not a rival, to the Church, it lias done what the Church could not do, and much also which the Church might have done, but has not. For many years, it baa conducted a daily prayer meeting at lit rooms, and no similar prayer-meetluv, . exempt that of ftc York, has been mure signally blessed. It has an anally disbursed thousands ot dollars for the relict of the poor: it is. in laot, the great agency through which this work is oarried on in this city. It has turniaited hnndreds of men ana women with employment. It has dis tubuted tracts and religions newspapers without number, lis members have been instrumental in tlio promotion of revivals throughout the North west It labors as earnestly tor the promotion of the spiritual as of the temporal well-being of ail whom it ran reach. It carries the loaf in one hand and the Gopol in the other. During the prevalence of the cholera, a few weeks since, its members were among the most fearless and active ot the good (samaritans; and during tho war Its ireauent and sell-sacrificing ministrations were enjoyed by hun areds of onr soldiers." The report adds, "As the melium through which to leach the nearly 100.000 of our popu lation who neither attend church nor the Sab bath School, we leel that no other instrumen tality could take Its plnce. In affording relief to the destitute and sicu, the Association expended $22,000, an in'-rea-e of about $8000 over the previous year. Last year tbev visited more than half the families in the whole city. Such facts as these are certainly most eloquent advocates of tho noble institution." The Washington Association desires to build a building through which they may reach the 20,(0 voung men and women in that city, a veiy large portion of whom nre nit under Christian influences. The Buffalo A.-socintiou employs a city mis sionary and sustains two orthre large and flourishing Mission Sanba'.h Schools, in which there have been a number of hopeful converts. The Montreal Association reports thus: "Our general mission work that is, visitina from house to house, the hospitals, jails, and other institutions is kept up with varying success. Since our last report our missionaries have made about five tbotisaud five hundred visits, tbat is, about fifteen per day. The oar racks and all the vessels in the harbor are regu larly visited. About forty of our youug men have, during the winter mouths, been engaged in cottage meetings in different parts of our city, with satisfactory results. A day prayer meeting and two Sabbath evening prayer-meetings are held in the most thickly inhabited parts of the city. 80,000 tracts were distributed, and relief as well as spiritual instruction was atlorded to the poor, the sick, and the dying. From New Haven we have the following re port: "The present work of our Association is the establishment and support of mission schools, prayer meetinps, and temperance meetings in neglected and degraded parts of the city, among which is u Bethel meeting for seamen, which has been in successful operatiou for more than six yei.rs, and which has been repeatedly visited by our Heavenly Father with converting power. We also organize aud sustain neighborhood prayer-meetings in various parts of the city, bdd at private houses, which have resulted iu great good." But 1 need not multiply evidences of the useful ness of these associations. God only knows the blessings that have been thus carried to tens of thousands of precious souls. The speaker then gave an account ot the noble work of the Christian Commission, saying it sprang from the Young Men's Christian Associa tions ot the country. He then sali that God has erven to tbem the seal of His aivme approbation. No one can for a moment doubt that they arc destined in the future to be in His hand instru ments of great spiritual power; for never in the world's hisiory were there such oveuinss, so at tractive and wide fields of usefulness, as now present tnemseives to earuesi Christian laborers. The susceptibility of lens of thoufands to moral influences and religious impressions; the new vitality that seems to be infused into the heaven-appointed lorce.s for good; the acencies of associated effort of the public and the pie-s, through which masses of men can be reached and nibved all are powertul stimulants to prompt and enercelic efforts for advancing the inter-sts of humanity aud religion. Then, events are transpinng 'that far exceed in importance the greatest revolution of the pnst, aud are them selves germs of still mightier changes for tue luture. God is overturning and overturning, preparing tho w ay for the reign of Him w hose right it is to sway the sceptre of supremest dominion over the' natious. A country, too, invites jour efforts upon which great tri umphs have already been achieved. Here freedom ut thaught, freedom ot speech and of the press, occupy the thrones of power. Here, recently, liberty has crushed its adversary at the moment that it had gathered up and concentrated all its strength to establish its claims and extend its dominion. Here industry and commerce, educa tion, literature, and science, are rapidly becom ing the handmaids of religion. I he sign; of the times indicate that in this tield the (treat decisive battles between truth aud error are to be fought, and tbat here prizes are to be won . . .. .
