I. Ill IIC H LOTTERY AND UAUIIMNU.
We commend to our readers the perusal of
the following extract from adieconrso delivprel
by Rev. J. W. Bchenck, pastor ol the Tenth and
Filbert streets church, on Sunday night last,
being a continuation of a course on the "Life of
Christ," In the delivery of -which some extem
pore references were niada to the pernicious
mode of promoting the financial interests of
Borne of the Christian church"8. As the thoughts
of this fearless minister of the Gospel aru based
upon the Divine law and our Lord's example,
the Christian public will not hesitate to confirm
the sentiments presented by a faithful ambas
sador of the truth:
We will consider our Lord's purilying act of
driving out the traders from the temple courts,
and its lessons to us.
By decrees, in the lapse of lime, th" usacre
bad grown up of keeping booths and stalls in
the courts of the temple, where everything
enjoined for sacrifice was sold. God had
enacted that instead of burdening themselves to
carry with them the animals, and flour, and oil,
and other requisites, they who lived at n dis
tance from Jerusalem might take the money
and purchase these tlung9, and tln-n oiler tuem.
Hence arose the custom ot holding these thlncs
for sale at points convenient to worshippers.
The business, in itself, therefore, was entirely in
accordance with the Divine provision. But
human creed Jor gain had taken advantage of
this gracious regard to the convenience' and
com tort of worshippers. And the traders had
presumed to place their marts in the very
altar's' presence. Here, too, was the money,
brokerage, which served the purpose of ex
changing the Roman com, which was the me
dium in ordinary transactions, for the Jewish
half shekel, w hich was required for the sanc
tuary. This was the sight that greeted our Lord's
eyes as He came' into those hallowed courts,
lie "lound in the temple courts those that sold
oxen and sheep ami doves, and the changers of
money, sitting." He beard the clatter of con
fused voices, as one and another trader urged
customers to deal with him. And where the
solemn and silent attitude and bearing of prayer
was alone appropriate, "Buy my wares!" came
uppermost to the ears. His Bpint is stirred by
holy indignation. To His work He goes.
"When He had made a 6courge of small cords,
He drove them all out of the temple, aud the
sheep, and the oxen, and poured out the
changers' money, and overthrew the tables."
The doves, lor some reason, he spares. (Was it
because the lloly Spirit bad chosen the dove as
His symbol when He anointed Ilim?) To
those who sold doves he came, and with
soitened utterance, perhaps, but not relaxed
determination, He says, "Take these things
hence! Muke not my Father's house a house
ot merchandise!" What must have been the
emotions of that band of traders as they hear
fiom Him whom they had seen at the Jordan,
where came the voice from Heaven, "This Is
my beloved Son,'' the peremptory order,
"These things hence i" And, in explana
tion, the strange desicrnation of the tem
ple, "My Father's house!" What a rush of
prophecy to memory ! How, in startling form.
Btood beiore them that rebuke, now animated
with a very resurrection lite, "la this house,
whifcta. is called by my name, become a den of
robbers in your eyes ? Behold, even I have seen
it, saitn the Lord." Well mleht "the disciples,"
in such a scene, "remember that it was written.
The zeal of Thine house hath eaten me up !"
How expressive this ot the manner in which
that zeal must find vent 1 How demonstrative
that that zeal will by no means tpure the earn il
abuses that creep into the sanctuary of (Jod,
through lock of proper reverence for that sacred
place and its Holy Lord !
And what class or age of men is exempt from
its application? As He who was "the glory ot
the latter house" explains "His sudden com
ing" and peremptory "purging" ot those hal
lo wea com ts, oy tne command, "inese tnings
hence 1 Stake not my Father's house a houss
of merchandise," a sound of authority starts
on its solemn way, tnat reverberates severe
visitation upon all kinds of profanation ot the
sanctuary, to the whole succession of genera-
tions of men. Now it sends its warnlner to us,
and it says, "Profane not that house by bring
ing Into its sacred courts your secular atlairs.
Use not this place to make or contrive your
gains. Plan not here your worldly enterprises.
Load not your mind on coming here with your
temporal pursuits, your accounts, your schemes
of ootaining the things ot this lite."
Aud especially regulate not the appoint
ments oi that house on secular principles.
Make not the management of the house of the
Lord a matter id bargain and sale, a question
ol protit and loss. Bewate that the aim to
secure revenues and make striking impressions
on the populace lead uot to fleshly appliances
and sensational expedients to draw the crod
and to obtain money. Beware that tardea, un
godly and tiniH-serving, be uot catered to, aqd
be Lot made to determine the manner of eirort
. to build up the house of ttie Lord. Beware
that a so-called "liberal Christianity" be not
made the "Master whom ye follow," and so
practices which the pulpit must denounce be
admitted luto the sanctuary, and nut into the
hands of enemies as a terrible argument to
nullify the teachings of truth.
And with peculiar applicableness do these
notes of warning come to uh. Already do we see
the strange picture of the lottery, and the auc
tion, and the theatrical performance eveu,
largely used for the purpose of raising funds to
build, aud repuir, aud support the house of God.
Think ot taking a ten-rent pleee, the property
of a little boy deceased, aud at the time or ser
vice holding it up and calling for bids upon ii,
xintil the agnrpizate rises to one hundred and
fifty dollars! Think of keeping a "trotting
mare" at a church lair, to be "voted" (rallied,
not?) for as a means of "prospering" ( 1 ) the
church of Jesus Christ 1 Think ot a olay in the
very sanctuary, wuh the pulpit stretched out t
the dimensions of a staee, in which the promi
nent character is a dniulien, swagserincr, swear
ing Irishman- the objec t, to raise reven to
sustain the ordinance:-, of the bouse ot God 1
Behold the gradation! How it calls up the
first Psalm, "Walking in the counsel of too ki
godiy;" "oiandme in the way of sinners;" "sit
iing in the sessions of the scornf ul." Well dos
a secular paper of this city close its comment
on the lust ol these proceed mas with "ltepent,
ye sinners!" What would He who pureed the
temple so summarily do should H j walk into
one of these "popular" and "profitable
"Kcbimes" for putting the people's monev into
the church's treasury? Metniuks the "marc"
would make better 'timo than ever; and the
"actors" would play strange, pantomime; and
the projectors of the'e enterprises woiili, I
ween, partake of the tediniis of the Jew trader-.
How this city would echo with "these things
hence 1"
The house of God was built for His worship
exclusively. Its ordinanees are chaunels
through which we render to Him His propnr
service and glory; and through which Ho con
ves to us the rich awards of His grace in Jesus
Christ. All 6ave this is contraband. And this
oons;deration may serve to suggest what ur
the proper principles and ways of sustaining
the Church.
But here that God is the only Lord, and Hii
behests, indicated by His Word and Providence,
are our only duty; His' laws, plainly written,
our only principles of practice.
One Word, one work, one wav, cue end l
the rule here, as one God is th- Jtatrr. "Holi
ness becumeth God's house," and nothing else.
This expression of the Divine mind must b re
cognized, and that solemn respect be paid to
the appointment and service of fie hri-e
which that recognition will generate. The
eanctuarv'e courts must appear to us ns did
Bethel to Jacob, "drecuiful " and for the same,

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH.--PHILADELPHIA, SATUKDAT,
LA Ooikrie Carjiival. As the time
dravs ne.ir lor the consummation of this, trie
n, est sipmfiiant ol eveuts, dedicated in honor
ol ll.e licht-footed Mw, expectation is natu
ra'lv aroused, Ideas arc at once enlivened, iam y
tutus with images ot the past, and desire seems
to hasten the moment which shall present to an
appreciative public the crowning glories which
an Abel and a Ritley, with Napoleonic stra
ttey have so fitly devised. Wc do not con
sider ourselves prophetic, neither would wo
te considered sciolists, when we assert this
grand Carnival likely to eclipse all and every
attempt heretofore ottered in the character ot a
public cnteitainment.
We would not particularize, and yet, while
referring to a matter so nreenant with Vfc and
faydy. wc cannot forbear calling the attention
ol our readers to the fact that JJirafehi has
charge of the department o important to the
saltntorial art. It may be interesting to notice
that bis selections have been made with a view
to gratify the most lastidious tste, prominent
among which may be classed the "new Military
Galop," composed expressly for this fete. This
superb production, intended to convey to tho
perceptions a semblance of the great conflict
between the grand armies of Prussia and the
Confederate German Slates, will introduce ths
novelties of the "needle gun," while tho clash
ing of cavalry sabres und the roar of lield
pieccs will lend an enchantment only secondary
in consideration to an actual campaicrn.
Th's, however, is t,,,t a tithe of tne many
chaiai terislieii t'.nt has been called in requi
sition to grace this festive occasion. .VutliiM it
to learn, no pains have been spared to make this
the initiatory Lat, the great event of the season.
Cdstunicrs, desisneis, etc., are busily engaged:
new and unique designs are hourly discussed,
while tho classics are diligently searched to dis
cover some conception of the ancients not
hitherto developed by the ingenuity of the
moderns.
Can we say more, when wc confidently assert
no Masquerade will be more liberally patronised,
and Fuprertiily cniojed than that o the coming

Lf.ctcke on Ophthalmic and Aural
Scruert. Dr. Von Moschzisker delivered the
first ot a scries of lectures oa the history and
progress of ophthalmic and aural surgery last
Thursday, at the hull of the Philadelphia Uni
versity. The lecture was well attended by an
intelligent audience of bath sexes. The Pro
fessor, alter dwelling upon the importance of
the sense of sight, and tho many diseases to
which it is subject, gave the history and
accounts ol the progress oi the science of ophthal
mology. He insisted particularly on the gre.U
necessity of specialism in every branch of medi
cal science, ouoting the brilliant toast of Pro
fessor Dundap, ol the University of Utrecht,
olfered at the banquet ot the members of the
International Congress ol'Ophlhamology, viz.:
"To Medicat specialities to specialism nowa
days, the essential condition of true progress of
science." At the point where, to-day, human
knowlcdce has arrived, no mind, how powerful
soever it be, can flatter itsnlf to be encyclo
padic; as. In order to understand any science,
aud appreciate the common principles which
link one to another, a general course of know
ledge is necessary up to a certain epoch, like a
common starting point; so the progress of every
science individually, absolutely requires special
ism. Who among us, alter having devoted him
self for twenty years to tho study of the eye.
could believe to know it entirely ? Who says
prepress to-day says specialism 1
We earnestly recommend this course of lec
tures to the public, as they will seldom have an
opportunity of obtaining so great an amount ol
information on these important subjects as the
present one from so justly celebrated, an oculist
and aurist ns Prolessor von Moschvaisker, who
unites, to add to bis attraction as a lecturer, a
classic and eloquent style to his vast erudition.
Robberies. On Thursday evening Pas
chall Morris, dealerio agricultural implements,
went to his siore in the Giraid block, Market
street, above Eleventh, which had been closed
and listened up an hour and a half before, and
as soon as he had opened the door he discovered
that some of the implements had been piled
against it to prevent easy access. Forcing his
way in. he then saw a man leaving hurriedly
by the back door. Once inside, he found that
the tire-proot in the wall hsd been entered by
breaking away the brick work at the side of the
iron door, and a gold watch stolen from it.
There was money in the tire-proot, which the
thief had not reached when he was disturbed.
In the hurry of the fellow to eet away he left
behind a skeleton key and the tools he had
used in breaking into the dre-proof.
