THEATRICAL rREA CJ27.NG.
rin Monday we expressed vir views
on
the Bul'Ject of tbe new system of preaching in
the theatres of nr city. We condemned it in
all honesty. From the numerous communi
cations we have received we select the ablest,
the one given below, from the Rev. Dr. Nadal,
Of the Methodist Chorch. It is courteous and
of no email force, yet we cannot change our
MTessed opinion "one Jot or one tittle."
Performances such as those at the Chesnut
Street Theatre last Sunday evening Bavor too
Lsational preaching are as far asunder as
Jhe antipodes. We therefore give the oppo
BHe view of the question.

w must go alter those who will not come to
,,b We must use all possible innocent skill to
induce men to heur the Oospel and be saved
Now Mr. Editor, permit us to examine the
fibleclions of your article to this innovation, so
cu lied First, you characterize it as -an attempt
to amalgamate the Church and tue world. " It
is certainly an attempt to bring the sinfu
" :S . Armim convert wicked men and
bring them Into the Church But it is no more
an attempt to amalgamate the world and the
Church than we are guilty of when we rent
our pews or lurulsh Iree sittings In ou r churches
to uersons who are not Christians. Ihe object
lu both cases is to preach the Oospel to sinners;
to win the world over to Christ, not to y ield the
Church up to the Influence of the world. Ihe
fact that tbe church was built for worship, and
the theatre lor amusement, docs not alter the
case in the least. Christians niuitt be "Instant
out of season" as well as "in season." If people
cannot be brought to church, we must preach to
them wherever we can find them.
Again, the article In uuesllou asks "if It Is
safe to mix opposing elemenls?" Certainly not.
when the aim or the natural tendency or the
mixture Is to the mastery of good by evil. Hut
where the aim or the natural tendency of such
a mixture is to purse out the evil, then by all
means let the mixture take place. Aud the
result wllJ not be "to weaken the barriers be
tween the Church and ihe world," but to in
crease ibe number of believers, and make the
bulwarks of the faith stronger. The barriers of
tbe Church are not intended to keep sinners
out, but only to keep sin out, and to defend
penitent sinners after they have been brought
in. The barriers are not gateless.
Nor can we feel the force of the argument
which would sbo v that "tue sight of tbe minis
ter on the stage, surrounded with the parapher
nalia of the theatre," would make the theatre,
rather than the Oospel, prominent in the miuJs
of the hearers. The effect on true Christians
would be to fill them with gratitude at the con
trast between the Gospel aud tbe vanities and
impurities of the theatre, and especially at the
thought that so many would hear the Oospel to
whom it hd so long been a strange sound.
"With the regular theatre-goers the result might
Indeed be, bsTiieTelkqkafh claims, a mixture
of the sacred and profane, of 8uakopeare aud
Matthew. The hymn, as you say, might easily
come in coutrust with a trivial song of the even
lug before. But, surely, it would be well to a 'lr
a 111 tie salt into the bitter fountains of worldly
feeling and thinking. Matthew and Jeremiah
bad better effect an entrance. They must be in
before they can be masters. Indeed, the Gospel
of Christ is bold. It dares to no intoanvcom-
pany, only it will go In Its own spirit aud with
lis own arms, to couquer and purify.
We may be told that "the attractions of the
ordinary churches are suftlcleut for all who de
sire." That may be, but the Bride of Christ
wishes to save those who have no "desire" to
be saved. Sho would do everything in her
power to awaken the deslrn. She would arrest
them in their career on the road to ruin, and
beg them to hear the story of the Cross. She
Knows that, by nature, all are children of
wraui.
We are not sure that we understand what Is
meant when the article in Thk Telegraph
lens us that "the qalet, dignified, orthodox
way ot going to heaven is quite broad enough
for all that desire to travel In it." it mmin
that it is not orthodox to preach religion out
Side of a church? When the article lu question
decinres that "If sinners will not hear the Gos
pel in the regu ar churches etc., they had
belter let Christianity alone." rni ti sin.
ners will hardly heed the exhortation. We beg
them, on the contrary, to hear the Gospel auy
?. ?nd .f!on.any. m'hlster, rather than not
at all; for the Word of God is Intended to
change the perverse mind; and the most
curious, profane, scofling hearer may become a
devout disciple. We Join with ThsTeleqrapu
in quoting the Divine words: "If itiev hear
not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they
be persuaded thwugh one rose from the dead."
J or the reason furnished by this text, we ODpose
the purpose for which It was quoted. We siy,
let them bear Moses aud tbe Prophets. There
is no other chance for their salvation. Make
them hear; follow them up and down through
the earth till they do hear.
in a word, the argument of The Telegraph
assails the economical principle on whioh the
evatgellsmof the Christian Cburoh, Is based.
In accordance with this mistaken view, the
field and street preaching of Wesley aud Wbit-
neld was all wrong; nay, the very Apostles
were wrong In preaching lu the prisons, by the
wayside, by the streams, In tbe desert, or
wuereveriuey iouna a soul to De reproved or
instructed. In this view it is wrong to preach,
especially, in any place whose aim is not
in sympathy with religion. It Is Vrong
to attack sin In its strongholds, even when in
vited. Our Saviour ouht not to have preached
In the house of Simon the Pharisee. It Is wrong
to go Into a drinking house to expostulate with
its visitors; it was wrong for the early Metho
dist preachers to so to the fairs in Ennlan.l ami
snatch the poor sheep out of the mouth of the
lion, so far from agreeing with this view, we
nolo it to be right to preach wherever men aud
vUIiJ T? ar?,fuud to listen. If the gamblers of

The following Is a letter of Joseph N relrwol,
Pemoornl lo candidate for City TreuHurer, to a
member of the U. H. Henale:

rpon thesnbjeotof the propoMM 1 xi . t. i c n cr . ti
United State Navy Yard at league Island. I
have been informed, aud I believe. League
Ihland has been wholly reclaimed from, the
rlvrr Delaware, and is only prevented from
overflow by large banks of stone and earth. It
In surrounded, excoptupon onesldo.by a marsh,
and for this cause, as well as from Insalubrity.
It ban bren unimproved and unoccupied, except
os pasture land, at a moderate rent, sine Us
reclamation. The fust land is from six to eight
feet below blgh-wuier mark at all points, and
would cost over a million dollars to level and
fit lor use os much as u ill be required for tbe
large purposes project CO.
If the object Is lo trer-t foundries, the spongy
nature of the sell would make it Impossible to
get a proper foundation for the bulldiugs exoept
at a great cost, nor could a well of sufficient
depth be dug for largo castings. It eould not
cofct less than two or three million dollars in
ship-bouses, dry-docks, and other structures
row in the old yard, which would huve to be
abandoned. 77ihj the gift of the IiVmd would be
drar, and still dearer if $2,000,000 were added to
the gift towards fiUmn it fur use. Most of the
ship carpenters employed in tbe yard now
reside In Kensington, nearly eight miles dis
tant from the Island, where they would con
tinue, as Government work is not sufliclontly
regular or remunerative to Induce a permanent
removal. The Island is at least live miles from
the supply stores or the city. Tue approaches
are ns low as the Island itself, and unfit for
building purposes, and for d Ihi.hu t from
hydrants, gas, improved streets, police and rail
roads. The. placehis only to be visited and seen to de
monstrate its unfitness, and I would humbly
suggest, a visit by a committee of Congress for
the purpose, before so great an outlay Is in
curred or promised, where performance is im
possible. There are minor objections, whioh I
will not urge. I am as earnest as any Phlla
delphlau In the desire of the location of a first
class yard, but It is my duty, impelled by the
same feelings which you have, to state to you,
as a public man. It will cost at least four million
collars to fit .League Island for tho least effi
ciency as compared with the present yard. If
you add foundries, etc., that will be an addi
tional expense, which I will not undertake to
estimate.
The present yard man be extended for about two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and provide
all the round necessary now and hereafter with
out disturbance or delay. I am ready to give fur
ther information, lleing persoually nuknown
to you, I reler youtoauy of the Philadelphia
delegation of tbe House to be assured who I am.
