THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1866. - 01TY INTELLIGENCE. For Additional City Intelligence tee FtfPtJfage. FOLLOWIHU CHRIST. A Sermon Preached it the Flint Church of Chrlit, Christian Chapel, Twelfth Street, above Wallace, by O. A. Bar- ' ftholomevr, Pastor, on Sunday, Decem ber 3,1860. "And be said to thorn all, If ny nan will come after roe, lot him deny lilmsult, and face op bis croi duly, and lollow me." Luke U, 28. Ibis expression of the Master has been 'elected as mrreftire 01 the subject ot "lollowina the Lord Jesus Christ." It is our purpo-e to eati your atten tion to some things In whicn we should all lollow Jlim who gave His life that He might lead us into the enjoyment ot impiriehablo honors and unlading Joys In Ills Father's house. Hut, betore doing this, we woald have you to understand that we can only lollow Him wiiere He hat (jotit. We cannot follow Him to trie theatre, the opera, the ball-room, the billiard-saloon, or the taoe course; for He did not go there. W e cannot follow Him In smoking cigars, .chewing) tobacco, drinking intoxicating liquors, danoing, playing checkers, dressing extravagantly, or engaging in vain and foolish conversation ; lor in these He never indulgod. M either can we lollow Him in many ot the religious practices of the present day, such as the Mohame dan pllgrimares to Mecca, the Homan catuoiio penance, the lulant sprinkling of the 1'edobaptist, or the substitution ot the anxious seat or "luoarn er's ouich," as moan of "getting religion." instead ol that hearty obedience to the authority of Iho King of kings required by the Holy Spirit, of the tiioutai.tis who, on the eer-inomorable I'ontecost, ciicd.out In agony 01 sool "Men aud brethren, what shall vtcdol" If preuci ers ot ti.e Uospel were con tent to foliow the leadings ol the spirit of Christ, instead of the inventions 01 men, the multitudes that are continually seeking the way of life would hear tho simpie words ol J opus, Ho that bullove ii and is baptized shall bo saved;" or of the inspired i.ter, "Repent aud be baptized every ouo of you In tho name ot .1. sua Christ lor tki remis-ibn ot sins, and you shall receive the gilt of the Holy Sp.nt." Jla;t. xvi, 16; Aots il, 88. 1. The lirst thing in winch wo must follow Christ ir,iniplicit confide nee iiGod, His I fUlicr. For ' with t t faith it is impossible toploaso Him." Heb. li, 6. Several passages of Bcripture were quoted to show that Jesus bad the most perfect confluence in every word His Father uttered, as weil as overt thing He did. But the Fathor said ot Jesus, "This is my be loved Son, in whom 1 am well plea-ed." Confidence in God, tberoioro, implies faith in his Son, indeed, the belief that Jesus is the Christ, the Son ot the living God, is both the beginning aud tho centre of the Christian system. 1'he confession ol this truth secures lor us the confession of our names before the Father and the ange s of heaven; whilo he that Micvei It not shall be condemned. 2. Jesus declared that it was necessary to fulfil all righteousness; and, tuerefore, demauded that John, the harbinger, should baptize Uiin. Puis John did by leading Him Into the Jordan and hurting Him beneath its waves, and iorthwitb raising Hun out of the water. It was then and b.ere that God first publicly acknowledged Him i His Son. in like manner has God promised to ay luowluJge us as His children, when, having publioi ) confessed our taith In His Hon, we oomonstrate tnat faith by humbly submitting to Ills authority, it is when we are bap tized into Jesus Chritt that we aro brought into the enjoyment of tbe Dcnelits of His death. Horn vi, 8. It Is when, with believing, penitent hearts, we are baptized in the name, or by the authority ot Jesus Christ, that we are promised the gift of the Holy Spirit (Aots ii, 88), which the world cannot receive. John xiv, 17. That this aot, in wnich it is necessary to follow Christ, Is the immersion ol the whole body In water, is aihrniod by tae Apostle i'aul in the fol lowing language: "Therefore we are buried with bim by baptism into death," Horn, vl, 4; "Buried ' with him in baptism," Col. ii, 12. 1 hat those pas sages refer to the "ancient maunor of baptizing by immersion" can hardly bo questioned, since John 'Wesley, and nearly all other loarued rodobapt.sts, confess It. 8. As soon as Christ had been immersed the Uevf 1 began to tempt him. ho sooner has the Christian entered upon has now Hie than his great enemy begins his efforts to reclaim him tn his dark dominion, ont ot which he was ceiivered when lie was trans lated into the kingdom of God's dear Son. But Jesus successfully resisted every temptation. If we would "come off more than conquerors through Him that has loved u," we must loilotv Him in tho manuor in which lie rosistod temptation. When baton appealed to his appetite, He said, It is written that man shall not live by it. ad a'one, Dot by every word that proceedoth out of the mouth ot God." When His lore ot riches and dominion was appea'od to He said. ' It isv.ritteu. ihou sbalt worshli) the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou servo." Waen II is vanity was appealed to He said, "It is written, Thou sbalt not tempt the Lord thy God." thus, by the use of "tho sword of the Spirit, 7 He put to flight His great enemy. Thus by it use we succesfully repel hie assaults. But to be able to wield this Instru ment we must ' let the word ot ChrlBt dwell in us richly in all wisdom." But Jesus also resorted to prayer as a means of resisting temptation. When tempted to resentment, as when He heard that Johu was beheaded; or vanity, when all men sought Him; or discouragement, when be saw wealth and intlu ence and powor arrayed againet him, He would re tire to some solitary place and pray. He sometimes even spent who e nights in praver. Follow Him in tliiB. fti d you will surely triumph. We should fol low Him in His unselfish interest in others. It is said ot Him that ''He went about continually doing good." Wo have not spaco to lollow tho speaker in his discussion ot this part ol bis theme. Alter the sermon ended, the speaker proceeded to hear the conleeslon of candidates for baptism. He stated that he did not feel at liberty to impose any other conditions upon persons asking to be baptized than liat imposed by tue Holy iSpiiit, wiiic'.ns simply t,o oouiess with the mouth the la. Ih oi the heart in the Lord Jesus. He then requested the caudida cs to stand up and make "the goo-J coutessiou." This each one aid, in the hearing oftheeniire audionoe, in these words: "I believe with ail my heart that Jesus Christ is the Son ot God ;" alter winch they w oro lod into tho boptistry and gently buried into the waiery grave and raised to walk in newness of life. This was an occasion well worth witnessing. The exercises of the even ing were enlivened by the tiugingot several heart cheering songs of praise, in wrr.ci the whole congre gation engaged. The services in this church are always free, and strangers are made to feel at home. Two Large Fibes Simultaneous De struction of a Large Brewery and Rtrkinq op a Malt-Hocse. Shortly alter 8 o'clock lat evening n brilliant lipht sprang up In the north western section of the city, aud an alarm of tire was quickly sounded. The fire proved to be the extensive lnger-beer brewery of Gu&tavua Herpier, situated on Tuonipi-ou street, tx-t areeu Thirty-first and Thirty-second street. Tli- main structure was ol stone, tliive stories luali, and one hundred feet deep and fifty feet wide. It abb almost entirely destiroypJ, together with the contents, consisting ol valuable machine y, ap paratus, aud fixtures. 5t)i)0 busb.pl of matt aud HOOD bu"u. Is of hops were tvirued, and 2M0 bar rels ot lafier beer were entirely ruined. The tire is attributed to uceideatal oiicuuistauee?, and the tntiie 1ob is estimated at SlOO.Ood, upon vuiwh there ia a partial iusuiauce in the Royal and other companies. Beared? had the bells doue ringing tor the above tire when the mult-bouse ot Meis. Franci and William Perot was di-covered on fire. The r-trueture is situated in the rear ot No. 314 Vine street, and extends back to New street, covering an immense atea of ground. The tiro originated in a new winu of the building nearest to New street, and iu a short time the cupob was on ore, mus crummy n bonuternuie lisht. The firemen were promptly on band, having been on the qui vive by the other tire, and quickly proceeded to tho place. Two or ths kilns were destroyed, and a considerable amount of water was thrown into the building. It ia imyossiblo to approximate the loss, ft a great amount of grain v.ui damaged, but some of It iuav prove ol some value. The main building hud a fire-proof, fortu nately, and it remained intuet from the fire, but much water found its way there. Mr. Perot in forms us that some portions of the building h ive been standing two luudied years, aud this 'is the Crst lire that ever occurred tiiere. The chinch adjoining the malt-huusc was in dunqcr at one time, but by the uxeitious of the. firemen it was saved. The lii'ht from both fires illuminated the Leaven in the northern section ol the city, and produced an impression that an iuiiueif-e con flagration was raging. Danger of Interfering Between Max and Wife. Edward O'Neal, residing at the Miners' Anns, on Water street, above Dock, was arrested on Saturday uight, on the charge ot stubbing a marine with a pocket koll'e. O'Neal, it is alleged, was ill treating his wife, Hd the marine interfered. Two severe cut were in flicted, one in each tbih. Alderman Butler committed O'Neal Icr trial. ScnooL-l'EAcnERH'AlEKHNO. The school teachers connected with onr public schools held an adjourned meeiing on Saturday, in tho Ice-tuie-room ol the liirls' High School, in Sergeant slreet. Edward W. Shippcn, Eq., called the meeting to order, and stated that the object of the meeting was to receive the report of tho Committee appointed to lay tho petition of tho teachers lor an increase of salary betore tho Committee of Councils. t A verbal report was made by Mr. P. 9. Dcldeo, who stated that the labors of the Committee had not been completed. lie had conversed with members ot Councils and found that, as a general thing, they were disposed to assist the teachers. Mr. Shippcn stated that he had conversed with most of the members of Councils, and found quite a number in favor of the bill in creasing the salaries of teachers. Mr. Bhippen alluded to the labors performed by the teachers, and stated that the whole number of teachers employed is 1300, and that 1169 re ceived less than $1'23 per diem; 1039 less than SI; 793 lew than 98 cents; 413 lesj than 88 cents," and 227 less than 82 cents. Mr. Shippen con cluded by advising each teacher to see the Councilman of their Ward, or their friends, and urge upon them the necessity of granting the increase asked for. Statements wete made by Messrs. Bcldeu and Barker, showing tbe amounts paid teachers in New York, Boston, and other cities, which amounts exceed the sum paid in this city. Alter tbe appointment of a committee of one from each ward to devise a plan for an orgpni zarlou for tho improvement of the condition of teachers, the meeting adjourned. A Shakp Operation. A rather odi case was heard on Saturday before Alderman B'dtler, at the Cential Police Station. Ueoreo Johnston and John Lazarus were tbe defendants. John' keeps a drinkery in Sixth street, near Arch. Johnston claims to be assent for the Treniont brewery. The charge was, that the two con spired to swindle a man named Jones, who lives in Watkins street. The prosecutor bouerht a gold watch of Richard Walker, for whicli he paid $90. Sometime after the purchae John ston called at the house of Jones, in company with a man whom he represented to be a con stable, and asked to see the watch, saying that Walker had stolen it. The watch was shown, Johnston declared it to be his, and threatened to arrest Jones for buying stolen goods. At the same time he insisted that the watch should be returned or the value of it handed over. To stimulate Jones to a speedy corclusion, Johnston said Walker had been arrested and locked up at the Central Station. Jones requested time to rertect upon the matter, and after Johnston and the reputed constable had left, he sent a friend to the Central Station and one to the house of Lazarus, to find out if Wi lker had been arrested. When Lazarus was questioned about it, he told the same story as Johnston had done, and, in addition, that he had bcem arrested by George Smith, deiec'ive officer. This story was a fabrication, as Walker had not been arrested. Defendants were each held in S1200 bail for their appearance at Court. Press Club Banquet. On Saturday evening the third anniversary banquet of the Press Club was given at the La Pierre House. A number ot invited guests participated with the members, and the affair was a success.
