arooil part lu tho rcvoiu ion or 10HS, for it was in tills
school that Jam"i, by a chaneiu us charier, brought
to end tho Papal control in that momentous
hour when constitutional principles were tremtnnr.
In tho balaoce. , '

ol thono who wore Intoroe ed In the education

toe old Charier llouso, playHia: waile his school

to bun "Jomi, why do you net tip so early tn the
f.oi.-don fojr this damping? His loplywas: "1
okI It l)"'au-e iny motuer told me." (Applause.)
lhii.. In the outct 01 il;n, he laid down t hat arand
rule t conduct which, In the blo'slnjr ol Uod, led
to treat and wise results.
fv llnd him, In tire year when he bad at'ained tho
aye ot seventeen, n"rinjf tbo arand old college, of
Oxford, to coTimenoe an academic career. In Enjr
)nnd, among the lower classes, who aro far removed
1rom kiowltdgo, there was a aenoral bo ie( that Mr,
Wesley wan an uncultivated tauatio a man without
culture, withocrt discipline and brain; bat this belief
was soon uprooted.
Mr Wesley commenced bis ecclesiastical career with
all the avidity ot a young-, ambitious man, wno lolt
that there lay before blm a oareer of ft ory. Ua be
cam not only an excellent Lit n so io ar, vorkinj
in tho most prev rina way tor the accomplishment
cl the treat boncdt wlrch that ianguago wou'd 71 ve
li m but we are told that he read and spoke in the
Latin language with a power that astonished his
own tntors. Mounting the pyramid of Greek learn
ing, be entered fully into tho Greek schoo', and read
with the utmost skill lrom the old actio astlo tri
bunes. Be mastered it; and so apt did be become
in it that be could discern its riches with the tante
of a critic, so as to become acquainted with the
nicer and more rellned beauties 01 that elnssioal
tonirue.
We dud him well posted in mathematics, and a
perfect master in the art of donate. He too his
stand tn the University of Oxford, afrrotably to
liisdepioeoi liachelor of Arts. H i made bimneit'
master ot the leading eharaotonsilcs in tbo history
ol our nation; ho wont into nothing that dissipated
the nrind or weakens the brain, lie stands forth as
otie who has dono much for the extension ofseho
lame power among the rising (feneration.
Jt seems to me there aro two alones in America
that cannot be debated or disputed : The glory ot
your free churches these churches that could
have done what this Methodist Church baa done;
and the glory ot your free schools that groat
glory that destiovs the monotony of learning,
and tbat covers tbo ground ot tho Kopu'ilio with
the banner of lipbt and the banner ot Christian
teaching. ( Anp'ause )
JRut it was this classical craving of John Wesley,
with tne fflouous attainments oi his co'iege career,
tbat culminated in thai great comp imouc of the
Greek lootnrerhip Mr. Wesley being appointed
Greek Lecturer at the ayo of tueuty-turno, an
uuusua ly early period for a man to rccoive such au
appointment.
I say that It seems natural that this distinguished
Engush scholar should be said to be filled with
Janatical impulses and passions, as a man incapablo
.of appreciating the nicrr beauties ot art, or the
subtle disquisitions ot philosophy, or the brilliant
Iienutfosoi cultivated intellects, either in art, poetry,
philosophy. It is obvii us ihat Mr. Wesley wad a
well-read schoiar. a man ot learning, a distinguished
gentleman; and I do not only lav aire a on these
great features ol bit early lilu, out I notice a Chris
tian, ministering- to the conversion of bouIs, to the
tamest truths ot the Gospel.
in ihe midnt of Viciom scenes at s.'hoot, he re
solved, by the help ot God, that he would forever
hun ihe evils that degraded and dooused many ot
the yean men around him. It was then that he
sought tho companionship of a small numbi r of
wise And aooer youths . He associated togetaer
with a lew ; tie resolved to live Iraxilly no doubt
hi comparative povortv would for 03 frugality upon
water Instead ot wine; be reduced
his diet to iho lorui ui iuv v...,,. H,.u,
taught himseir (hat every man shou d use alio
greatest diseip.ine with his appetites. He was not
moved at thai day by tho highest relist ous motivu,
ana yet there was ever witlnu bim the desire to do
what was right and shun ttiat which was wrong.
but Wesley was soon unpopular with some of the
peop . He was cal ed all manner of epltbo s b his
follow students while, laoonngia his work of estab
lishing the holy lehgiou.
At about twenty-throe years of age bis father, in a
letter, S'jeaks hopeluliy of bis religious condit:ou.
He tinds re Igion to be h's steady, earnest study.
Wesley comes into the deaconship of au estab isbed
church. He Is on the road to a high religious stand
ing. He becomes his lather's steward, and explains
the Word of the Gospel 10 some degreo; bin, as yet,
there does not appear to be tbat blight light shimn
111 his soul which was anerwards to illuminate the
souls of hundreds of thousands.
He turned bis attention to those in the world to
thia Mew World,. wh'ch baa always fascinated the
hearts of a 1, from the days that the l'uritans first
landed on Plymouth Hock.
He turned bit attention to these soattorod S'atos
on this American comment. With all tho ardor 01 a
ncble resolve, bo determined to visit these colonies.
Jt is difficult to say what passed in the mind ol Mr.
Wesley when bo ciossed the Atlantio to settle down
in tho Btate of Georgia a very dilhoult fcState to
nettle in lor a gentleman like Jttr. Wesley, lor he
brought his notions ot discipline, which, no doubt,
caused hit (allure to bo satisfied with ih j country.
Georgia was a State co rupted at this timo by the
great evil oi slavery, aud we cannot forgot his
impressive words, ' tbat the English nation was re
sponsible for slavery," and also "that slavery was
the sum total of all human viliames." After two
yeais' experience in the New World be lolt Ame
rica. He arrived on the shores of tho Continent in
nab, and in 1738 be left America, speaking thoso
emphatic words, "I shake tho dust lrom my feet "
And yet it was this visit to America that became
of great servioe to the spiritual lite of this eminent
man and servant ol God. Jt was on that day, when
out on the Atlantic, In the mlJst 01 a migli'y storm,
be observed men and women who, while the storm
was howlmg, and tne waves were dashing over the
boat that great storm so typical of the storm of tile
lie saw with astonishment tbat these plainly
dressed people were Moravians German men and
women, w be were quiet the women knitting wmle
an awtul desth stared them in the lace. air. Wesley,
with all the axporlonoo be possessed, was surprised,
s no aid to tuem, "How is it tbat you can be thus
placid in the aiiust of this s.ormf" and ibey gave
him that ever-memorable answer, whioti ought to be
ngravva on the soul of every person, "Iho Chris
tian Is never atrald to die." It was not the vaunting
ot mere worldly courage it was tho deep faith that
strengthened tne soul in timo of terrible danger.
tie returnod to London, and wended his way up
Fleet street, np a na"iow lano, goes Intj a uttie
meeting-house wnme the Moravian biothren and
BiHieis vray; bo mingles bis voice in prayer with
them, and ot us earnestness, all have but to think
oi the emotion that swayed him on board tho vessel
on tne atormy Atlantis. He was there a devoted
church eieigyman. Fired witn zeal, be rosoivod, if
pos.-ib'e. to devote hUnselr to greater energy in
the service of the Cburtu of England.
instead ol being eloquent in declamation, in
stead oi being exoited lu intense frenzy, it is our
duty to say tht Vi eeley was a quiet preaohor, per
suasive, with a knowledge of the wants ot human
,na ure with marvellous k low ledge of the Gospel
witbthe.most intimate f'amiluuity with the weakness
.and gratifications of men, with great powers of
apnea ing and denunciation.

It was this great teaching of Wesioy that led bo
many to conversion and CtirisiiamtT, where must be
