A Dliconnt Before the Independent

ndet d, in receiving wo see their necessities,
their weakness, their obligations to us, but iu
giving they present themselves as rich, power
ful, munificent.
The Apostle asserts tho same fact as to men.
Jlesays in Hie text It Is more blessed to give
than to receive.
In this insertion it Is not denied that there
Is pleasure iu receiving; it is only asserted
that tiie pleasure of receiving is inferior to the
plPHSiire of giving.
The simple fact of receiving Is a blessing In
Itself. What is received may have been
itrnd-lngly bestowed only given to meet the
demands oi publio.oplnion and yet, if tho re
ceiver is in circumstances of need.lt is blessed to
receive. lint the blessing is only material. Tut:
recipient of the charity can eat aud wear what
is even given grudgingly. So mucti bread and
meat, however gotten, if put into a healthy
stomach, will produce so much blood, muscle,
and strength; aud so much cloth, put Into
coats and pantaloons, will keep out so much
cold. And this is tbe view apparently taken by
many of their benefactions. But what a mise
rable, naked, skeleton blessing suoli a person
receives! Ills brother has treated him like a
hungry horse; he has regarded him merely
as un animal; be lias given so much to
bis stomach and limbs, but lu the manner of
tbe gift has bad no respect to his soul. In this
caso something is bestowed, but more is with
held. That gentle and brotherly consideration
for the poor which awakens gratitude, and
opens the henrt to good and pious counsels, is
withheld; that blesset', heavenly sympathy
with huiuau suffering, which makes the suf
ferer feel that you have shouldered a part of
his trouble, is withheld. You have put bread
Into his mouth, but have given no food to bis
higher humanity. See that orphan boy ! When
his parents died, decency demanded that bis
rich and stingy uncle should take bim home
With bim. In tiiat family the boy eats his
grudged meals, and grows outwardly sturdy,
perhaps, but that sunshine of sympathy, those
fond caresses that are lavished upon the chil
dren of the family, and which, bestowedfu
him, would make liiui forget that he is an
orphan, are not his to enjoy. Without beart
nourlsiimeut. he grows up crushed, dwarfed,
Indurated. With worse food and poorer cloth
ing, but more smiles and more love, he would
have thriven much belter, for the soul un
willed would have grown.
' You call on a merchant for a subscription
for tbe cause of missions, and he gives, but
does it with a surly look, and with im
patient, surly talk. You have your five
dollar note, and, poor, innocent, unconscious
note that it is, it does not know bow miserably
it has been given, and in the treasury it will
count just as much as that other noto which
was prayed over and given with glad and cheer
ful heart. But how does it atl'ect the collector?
Don't you feel in some sort paralyzed and un
prepared to go to the next place? You have
tbe money, but with it a re bull a bruise, if not
a dislocation. If with the gift you had received
a smile and a fervid good wish for your success,
you would have been lightened aud wiuged for
your next visit, but, as it is, the gift has made
your heart, and your step, and your counte
nance heavy. And when that money is sent
out to the foreign Held, ii tuo spirit lu which it
was given could be Bent with it, if it could carry
the giver's grumble and frown. It would make
the missionary's heart to sink wlthiu him.
But, God be praised, the blessing of receiving
need not be merely physical, poisoned by the
superciliousness aud pretension of. t lie giver,
Jt need not be a mere bread aud meat
bleBSing, to be measured by tli amount
of muscle to be manufactured out of it.
Gilts need not be like tiie honey which
we get from an old dead tree the honey
Is pure, and the comb white and beautiful, but
the tree is worse than nothing: we wish to
cleanse the sweet prize from the smell of the
rotten wood, aud t brush oil" the hllhy pow
dered fibre. So, with grudged favors, we would
brush and rub from them the canker of stingi
ness, aud forget the vile spirit in which they
were given. But a favor almost becomes
another thingr, a sixpence grows into a dollar,
nay, into thousands, when it is cheerfully
bestowed. It is as when we have gathered the
ripe and luscious apples from a living tree,
whose bending boughs sloop aud laugli la the
glorious sunlight to make thoclieerfuroirer.and
neem to say, "Relieve me; it will accommodate
me. Don't you see I am burdened with riches ?"
Wo are ready to answer, "Beautiful, good
humored, benevolent creature, your spirit is
sweeter aud better than even your fruit I"
We have been so fortunate as to be aoiualntel
Wltll men who, by the spirit of their benelicenco,
made receiving a pleasure, I kuew a man who
made bis own lortuue
"Whose soul proud science never tati-'ht to stray
Far as Ibe solar walk or milky way;"
a man of no broad vtewsongener.il questions
The money had come in last, but not fast
enough to ruin his heart. It came not into his
heart, but Into his chest. When ha was asked
for a gilt tor the poor, he usually handed
over the amount needed, aud returned thanks
for the privilege, and then, with a heartiness of
manner which showed bow deeply and simply
sincere he was, he expressed a hope that he
might be honored Willi many such calls. I
remember another instance, which will illus
trate our point. A clerical friend had come
from tbe country to beg for a poor church, I
had taken him to the counting-house of a mer
chant, who bad scowled at ine for brinirimj
him, and had left upon his small gift aud upon
our spirits the spell ol his meanness. With a
sad heart I led my begging frleud up the street
to another establishment, vve now lound our
selves lu quite another atmosphere, it was
like passing from the north pole to the balmiest
May day of our own climate. In this place
giving was a regular part of the business, and
apparently tbe most pleasant part. The firm
had a formal account with the Dord. The case
was no sooner sluted thun a baudsomesuin was
given by the principal, aud the book handed to
two brothers
s, who gave in tno same spirit, j. ma
done, I was thanked for the opportunity
afforded thein of doing good, aud requested to
call again wheu I had a good case. Here giving
was not a mere physical net, but one of holy
cheerfulness, and hence receiving was not a
Wore physical receiving.
The enjoyment of such receiving Is not
one of mere money-getting, or mere eating, of
being warmed aud filled, but a noble leollug is
conveyed with tbe benefaction.
Us ten to the beautiful words of Rnrlnt.nrn.
'Give, not grudglugly, or of necessity, for God
loveth a cheerlul giver." This Is the giving
that makes receiving a blessedness. Here is a
gift according to the letter, but aooordiug to the
spirit also. A spirit is communicated alomr
with something external. The reclpieut sees
the gif t not as a mechauloal act, but as a soul,
a. lite, in which the mechanical disappears. 11
sees the spirit of goodness lu his benefactor, and
f.-uiu t ho beauty of 1L
What we meaa Is, that the highest blessed
mens of reoftivlng depends on the spirit of givinir.

EinJTlnm? When vou look at a fruit tree, for
1 n doe it lodk more noble and Utgulllod
it ns receiving ine Huniigin
stances. There, In yonder hovel, Is a poor crea
ture in whom vice has been followed by Its
natural attendants poverty, neglect, and ruin.
There seems to be no place in her heart for hope,
much hss for reformation. The world Is dead
to her, and she Is waiting to die literally. There
Is one thing can touch her yet, and that Is kind
ness. If you can make her fool that someliody
cares for her, vou have found a path through
which you nuiy finally enrry happiness Into
her soul. A mere gift may not do it; sunshine
and rain are gifts, and much more beautiful
eills than money unfeelingly bestowed. Hut a
benefit -coupled with gentle pity, and offered
in such a way ns to show true Interest In the
sufferer, will call her back to life, and another
Mngdiilene, like the first, will wash your feet
with her tears, and wipe them with the hair of
her head.
Again, you nro anxious to save a soul; that
soul must be the recipient of your lessons,
your eflort", your advice. But shall receiving
be a lesson lu this case? Most certaluly not
by coldly given counsels, not by brow-bent-
lug, but rather by unostentatious and nfl'oe
tloiuife wonts of Christian sympathy, which
will breathe ft heart of love, and show your
estimate of tho value aud preciousuess of a
soul.
And Inst of all, what is there In Jesus of
Nazareth and Ills religion that makes receiv
ing such a Joy? We are saved by tho Cross.
Hut what does that menu? Not merely that
the Jews and Ilomans put Christ to death, but
especially that He was a voluntary sufferer:
that lie gave up ills life when all the powers of
earth and heaven were at his disposal for Its
defense. Out ol love He gave Ills life for us. Iu
the gentlest mood ol sorrow, uud in the noblest
mould of love. Ho linked pain with Immortal
compassion. Touched by His sublime giving,
wo receive His gill with abashed aud humble
grntilude.
But let us now turn from the blessedness of
receiving to t hat of giving. Wherein does the
blesst tlne.-s of giving consist, aud how is it
superior to Uin of receiving ?
We answer that the pleasure of giving does
not consist lu the simple fact ol parting witli
what we have. On the contrary, if there be in
the heart no fount of goodness on whose si ream
our gifts float form to their object, tho sepera
tion from our treasure must be painful. It is
like plucking the feathers from tho living bird,
like ten ring open tho oyster lu order to extract
the precious earl; like Jerking out, the Jewel
that luing In "(he swine's snout, and rending the
tough flesh." 11 is not tUo giver, but the
cheerful giver who is blessed. It Is uot tie
who shows mercy who is happy, but he that
"showeth meicy with oheerluluess," he that
"loves mercy."
True, giving Is an act of tho soul, by which It
comes Into harmony with God. It is a Joyful
recognition ol the charity that scekelh not her
own, which does uot live uuto Itself, which
conlesses Itself Its brother's keeper. Inaword,
it is Divine benevolence, in thought, iu feeling,
iu action. It is a spring lu the heart which
does not content itsell Willi boiling and bub
bling within its own narrow limits, but delights
to flow forth and make all without to blossom
Willi gladness, it Is an Instrument of music
w hose cords, touched by the trembliug linger
of sorrow, send forth strains of heavenly com
fort. It is a feeling ready to be converted
into bread, and meat, and clothes, and firewood,
and lodging for tno wretched. It is a cloud,
troubled aud restless until it pours its shower
of relreshment upon t he parched wastes of hu
manity. Ii is tho Good Shepherd, whose step
is never so light as when his shoulder is bur
dened with tiie lost sheep which He has rescued
from the wolf. It Is the Good Samaritan, who
forgets an enemy's hatred in a brother's misfor
tunes. We often hear about giving from a sense of
duty, but If our view be correct, the blessedness
of benevolence is fur, very, very fur beyond
this. The sense of duty Is something stern and
strictly Just. It waits until want and woe
knock at the door. When it hears the knock,
it opens the door and inquires, with a solemn
face, What may bo the matter, and what is the
extent of its own bond ? But Christian benevo
lence, instead of waiting tor wuut to knock,
knocks at the door of want, and chases away
sorrow with the smile with which it asks the
privilege ot relieving. Is it not so? What lias
been the spirit of the noble philanthropists of
the world? Was It a stern, calculating sense of
duty that sent out John Howard, aud Kllzabeth
i'rye, and Florence Nightingale, aud Miss Dix,
and John Wesley, and Saul of Tarsus? Nay,
brethren, a sense of duty can provide us feet,
but these servants of God and hnrnanlty moved
on wings; they travelled in a whirlwind; tlioy
worked for nothing and found themselves: they
were oil' on the errands of love before the sense
of duty had finished doing his sums. By the time
duty bad got on his boots, aud taken up his
stnlr, all-loving, all-giving, self-forgetting
charity had entered the hovel of poverty and
set the table; and by the time duty arrived,
charity had departed, leaving a rainbow over
the door, and nothing the mailer wiiniu.
Shall we now ask why giving is more blessed
than receiving? Have we not answered it? Is
not the very spirit of true giving a bliss in itself
already? It is a baptism which purifies and
saturates with tho very spray of the River of
Life. Like the sun, it moves and shines in its
own light it gives without losing, it wins ad
miration and ;gratitude, but humbly lays its
trophies on the altar of the Lord of ail. It is a
Joy, a glory, a sanctity of inner life, blossoming
wmi perennial beauty.ana nenuingauu break
ing wnn an exiiausuess iruiiage.
But not only Is tho spirit of giving superior to
the state of mind and heart involved In re
ceiving; the true giver shows his superiority to
the receiver lu all tho forms of his happy
activity. As tho stars are over the clouds, so Is
the giver over the receiver. XI lie oesiow bread,
the very llesh It yields Is his. If he supply coal
or wood, the warm glow that drives awuy the
deadly chill is his. His is the roof thut keeps
out the storm: his Is the coat that blunts the
pinch of the frost. If he give sufe counsel in
trouble, his is the peace that comes buck to tin;
heart of his neighbor. If he pick up a fallen
child in the street aud tenderly sets It on Its
little feet again, the gruteful patter ot those feet
Is music of his own making. If he draw a soul
to God, its shouts, its peace, and, lu some
sense, its renewed life are his. Inhlm is ful
filled the word of the wise man, "There is that
which scattereth and yetlncreaseth." In open
ing his heart to men, he hath opened Heaven to
himself, andall men have opened their grateful
souls to him. What he scatters is seed; what
returns to him is a great harvest. Tho covetous
man is like tho liorse-leech, ever crying "Give,
wtvo I1' Til i u 11 1 flit witli rnval'.inon lid 1 1 tin.-tb-a.
fs like God, ever entreating, "Take, take!''
Brethren, Is it not blessed to give, more blessed
than to receive?
Gentlemen of the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows: 1 do not belong to your order, but I
have read your rules, and have mot witli fre
quent instances of the good you have done. I
find that the book known as tno Odd Fellows'
Manual is replete with Scripture quotations,
both from the Old and the New Testaments.
1 find, too, thai oneof your degrees goes beyond
the mere duty of one Odd Fellow toauother, aud
recognizes the universal brotherhood of
Die ruce. With your recognition ot the Bible
in this book, I cannot understand how any
man can honestly be a member of your order
without accepting the Divine authority of
Christianity.
Taking this view, therefore, we cannot unite
with some who oppose you, aud who oppose all
such societies as un- or even nntl-( 'hrlstian. If
the Constitution and laws of tho United States
only recognized God aud His word us you do, I
should be content. You are, of course, not a
church; If you were, the even limited secrecy
of your order would be inadmissible. But who
will deny the right ol men to uuile for mutual
security? Your society, In its beneficial as
pects, a i understauu it, is only a sort of life
aud health insurance, for your mutual support
In sickness; for the benefit of widowhood aud
orphanage. And to oppose you as unchristian.
or lo reject you lrom tho Church, as wo learn
some do, is about as rational as it would be to
oppose an insurance company because some of
ii ouicers were not Christians, or because they
lusured persons without examining them in
viie creeu or catechism. There are bodies of
Gospel minlsteis who are united in beneficial
societies similar to yours, excepliug the degrees
and the regalia. Your secrecy, as I understand
in n, y Ulfcttnt to prevent impositions, and
wfttir, . , V more objecllouable than
watchword of snaVuiy
m i"h "lv; u'"fore, can I not oppose you, but.
Yiiu ;.f "" "'usi congratulate you upon a

which the nation has Just pissed. With vou I
rejoice in a Union preserved l hro gh so costly
a struggle but who reimlu, are wtu all they
cost. And I would epoolul)y eommend " vo
your own principle of universal brotherhood:
In this sacred place it Is aUinit I should
yon that this princip e is euiullively ciiristian
Christ Urst proposed a reliKtoU for the whola
world, atid taught the brothrhood of man as
the norm of civil law and Individual life.
Dear brethren, before the Holy Scriptures
&ud their heavenly teaching, tUwe j uvliuer
Jew nor Gentile, neither Romanist nor Pro
testant, neither Odd Fellow nor Mason. Let
me, therefore, urge npon you the Instant ac
ceptance, by faith and Its profession, of the
religion you so copiously quote In your books.
Home of you, I hope many, are already Chris
tians. But, my boloved brethren, I need not tell
you that It Is not the writing and printing of
Christ's words in our books that will save us,
but their Planting and germination In our
hearts. Like your society, everytiiing tern-
? oral should be placed on a Christian founda
lou. But It Is not enough to place our earthly
interests on thut foundation. We must also,
and above all, plant ourselves there. Christian
foundations call for eternal rather than tem
poral structures. Christianity, while it en
wraps families und nations and time, also cir
cumscribes eternity, shall wo build only a
house of pasteboard on the base of a pyramid,
anu burii we ereci only earthly economy on me
eternal Christ? Brethren, the Joy you have In
your own unity throughout tho war, the grati
tude you pour forth for our natlohal Integrity,
must not ouly rise to the universal breadth
which your fourth degree so beautilully por
trays, but each of you lor himself must appro
priate the Christian life and work for the
highest lis well ns lower good of the country of
which each of you Is a son, and tho race of
which each Is a brother.
In conclusion, there is one danger ngalnst
which I would aflectlonately warn you, aud
that is the possibility of becoming the antago
nist of the Chuich of Christ. I am happy to
know that ninny of your number are devoted
Christians. You are a benetloiul, not a religious
association, and far bo it from me to recom
mend the adoption among you of religious
tests. Let men of all religious beliefs share tiie
pecuniary safeguards of your Order. In a high
and holy sense even unbelievers are our
brothers. But, to my mind, your ritual, wit h
its forms of prayer, carefully omitting the name
of Christ, gives you somewhat the aspect ol a
Church, and of Church not Christian. This is
much used against you, and is, I think, a fea
ture not without dnngcr. I'ermit me to iuqiiiro
whether forms of prayer might not be altogether
dispensed with iu a society purely beneficial,
and repudiating the charuoter of a Church.
My dear friends, your beneficent spirit ns an
Order, your cherished idea of the uuiversal
brotherhood of man, your kind, fraternal
nursing of the sick, your noblo care of widow
and orplinn, were all born of Christianity, and
are wholly uuknown beyond the borders of
Christendom. And I earnestly hopo that noth
ing will have your countenance that, to the
most remote seeming, will place you lu a hos
tile attitude towards the Church. Sho Is the
mother and cherlslier of every form of pubilo
and private good.
Finally, brethren, your appointment of this
day of national thanksgiving is, in our view, a
happy omen. It seems as though the Dlviuo
Spirit, the Holy Comforter, had visited you and
drawn you to the altars of the Church. You
evidently felt, aud thut rightly and wisely, tnat
if your Order was to engage in public worship,
tho church was the filling place. You have,
therelore, come to the church, to the churches
known as evangelical; and iu the name of the
church we bid you welcome to her altars and
to her service. May the offering of thanks
giving: Which your order this day presents be
lore the Lord, come up with acceptance before
Him, aud may tho answer of Heaven bea bless
ing upon you and your brethreu throughout the
country, anu upon me nation i
THE COLORED WEN OF ALABAMA.
Florence, Ala., April 10.
Hon. William D. Relley, Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Sir: 1 see in the Washington Chronicle
that a fund is being raised by members of Con
gress and others for the purpose of sending
Koutu, curing tue summer ana fan, radical Re
publican documents, for the instruction and
guidance of colored voters and Southern loy
alists. This I regard as a highly desirable aud
necessary movement. Down here those who
do not take Northern papers get but little relta'
ble Information as to the political situation
It should be understood that such documents,
circulated among the freed men, would be read
euner by them or to them, if thev even
thought they contained any political informa
tion, nine out 01 ten wouiu waiic nve miles to
nave mem read.
I am a colored man, a native of Pennsyl
vania. Have charge of a large school of Ireed-
men at this point. Am supported by a i'eun
sylvania Aid Sooiety. Was educated at Oberlln
College. Asiue irom my occupation, i wish to
do what 1 can in Ibis section towards enlight
ening the newly enfranchised in regard to
voting. In this work 1 wish to secure what aid
I can lrom the North.
It Is really amusing to see the wonderful
change in the demeanor of the whites towards
the blacks since the nassage ot the Heconslruc
tion bill. Let the North not be mistaken on
this point. Southern politicians are, without
uouot, going to use every exertion to secure the
aid of the freedmen in their efforts again lo
raise themselves Into political power.
Kverytlilng here Indicates that the late
Rebels will bring to bear upon the colorod
voters all their powers of persuasion and de
ceitful manifestations of kindness. They have
commenced already. Their strongest argu
ment at present is someihing like this: "we
are belter friends to you than the North. Why
do they not give their own negroes political
rights ?" etc. You can hear this argument fall
ing from their lips every where.
Intelligent Southern colored men will, of
course, vote the straight radical Republican
ticket. I am confident that they will lead tho
lemainder in the right path. But to do this
succest-lully, they must have the co-operation
of friends at the North. If the issues are fairly
presented to the freedmen of Alabama, I have
no fetus ns to the results; but if they are to re
ceive their political Instruction at the feot of
their old masters, then we may fear the worst.
The hympathies of southern colored men,
ignorant as they are, are with the North. The
slave always did believe that his freedom lay
somewhere beyond the snow clouds of that
secllon; and, now a freeman, he still turns
thither his eyes for protection in li is new-found
liberty. Run out for President any radical
Republican, a man whom, down here, we can
conscientiously call a "Lincoln nisn," aud the
blacks would vote for him to a man. "None
other need apply."
But your pardon, dear sir; I only wished to
ask if you eould put me In a way to get such
documents as would aid me in the work of
enlightening these people in regard to their
new obligations as citizens. Hoping to hear
from you at;an,early day, I am, dear sir, yours,
etc., Oscak M. Wakinu,
