At H) o'clock the reading of the letters wai sus
pended to allow for the special order of the day for
that hour, the reading of the circular letter. This
was read bv Its ant nor, Rev. Mr. Spencer, of Rox
ioro The subject of the letter was
Laxity In Kellalnua HelleC.
The following Is an abstract of the letter:
What is the position of onr churches and of Ood's peo
ple Benorslly on tins vital fubjaot)1 Are these doctrines
field ami defended with that tenacity and moral courage
which their importance demands? Is od honorod by a
fltronr religious belief in His people? Taking their cm'
dnct as the measure of their belief, does it indicate that
"vitality and consistency which must emanate from a mi ad
(rapping the doctrines of Christ as veritable realities?
The careful and honest Observer of facts must onfoss
to a prevalent and growing laxity in religious belief. We
live in an age that is excessively liberal aa a.'e that
seeks to accommodate rather tban defend to appreciate
the ceremonies of religion in preference to religion itself.
Human tastesand desires are coniulted before the 'Tons
rait b the Lord" oi duty. Policy instead of principle is
the motive power in many hearts. Under the garb of
Christian charity, falsely so called, mtny are seeking
agreement by concealmeut. Forms and ceremonies, with
bo scriptural warrant, are observed with great stric'ness
and parade, while doctrines emanating irom the ete-n il
throne, and practices appointed by the Lord of' life aud
fclotv, are completely ignnrd.
Many of "the most essential doctrines and practice of
Christ ian and church life are regarded as unimportant.
Take, for example, the suhjoct of church unity, flow
many are constantly asking why all Kvangelical churches
cannot unite upon a common platform? The simple answer
is because the scriptural conditions, owing to laxity in re
ligious belief, are nit complied with. It must be rem um
bered there aro certain great Biblical truths to be ac
cepted as tacts, to be believed in and carried out before
(iod will permit an organic union. The Scriptures must
be aoccpted as absolutely the only standard of faith and
duty. There mut be a regenerated Uuurch membership.
Kealty to the ordinances and doctrines of the Gospel must
decidedly be maintained. (Scriptural discipline and spiri
tuality of worship must be observed. How
much of looseness there is in the reception
ol these great foundation principles, amounting in seine
quarters even to unbelief! They are'regnrdnd by many in
practice, if not in theory, as entirely nuimimrtant. for
any one who can encourage a looseness here on these vital
points, the transition is very easy to the defense of a senti
iuent quite current ai the present time. ' In t hings es
sential, unity; in tliiua not essential, liberty; in all
things, charity," Wnere in God's word has He given a
doctrine or requirement wbioh is a "not essential?" Has
Ue informed any of Adam's ran that He is in error in re
gard to His statement, that some of them are important
and some of them are nut? Nothing tha,'. emanates from
od is insignificant. He who numbers the very hairs of
our head, and without whose notion not even a sparrow
falls to the ground, has not instituted any law or prineiple
which is not essential.
The transition from this sentiment so fa'se to another
equally prevalent is not difficult. I reier to I he motto,
"K makes no difference what you Deli eve so longasvoa
think you are right." Never was there an utterance far
ther from the tiuth. It does nmke a difference before
liod what we believe. Our thoughts are not the stan ltird
of right. Heeause the heathen think tbey are right tnat
does not make them so. Me a a e affected by prejudice,
education, circumstances. God has given us what we are
t' believe. He bai not left this mutter to human caprice.
Nor can we add t or take from His appointments without
incurring His certain displeasure. ,Yet. how many will
take relate under this sentiment when shown to oe in
trror. and speak of their error as of little importance!
. The change from laxity in belief to inconsistency in
practice is very easy, and the existence of the latter is
evidence of the former. Men will act religiously only as
impelled by their be'ief. Their action for Christ will be
graduated by their belief in Christ. Conduot rises no
higher tban the faith which prompts it, even as water wll
not aoend above its source. Would a man wbo really be
lieved his neighbor to be in danger from a terrible d ue iio,
and knowing an effectual cure, fail to recommend and
urge its use? Vet how many there are, surrounded by
immortal souls, aHected with the terrible malady of sin,
indangerof everlasting punishment, who never recoin
mend the treat panacea of the Unspel! This is proof suf
ficient of the weakness of their belief in the doctrines of
sin. retribution, and redemption.
The inconsistencies of professing Christians are am.mg
the most potent belps to the cause of Sittan. Did men
have a firm belicl in all the teachings of the Bible, tUnv
would make thorn the controlling principles of their life.
Their hearts would be nearer right. Kootitude of lil'e
comes from rectitude of heart. Tus watch will not run
correctly if the mainspring be wrong. Nor will the prac-'
tice be consistent without an unfaltering experimental
religious belief entering into and acting upon the life.
In aeskin to correct this laxity, in demanding a
stauccher defense and adherence to the principles and
practices of Divine appointment, somedecUre it is an in
fringement on liberty of consoiea.ee and the right of pri
vate judgment : but this arises from a misapprehension
of what soul liberty is. A church holds certain truths
based, as it is believed, on the law of Ch-ist, as essential
to its integrity, and so does an association of churches.
A member comes to bold and propagate views contrary
to the accepted faith of the churches, for
that reason the band of fellowship is withdrawn,
percbance. There is no persecution in this. The con
science is not trammelled, the liberty .'tie Obaroh or
individual is not impaired. The Church and the Associa
tions have rights and liberties as well ss the individual, and
in txtrcismit ibeui does not invade tbe srctity ot indi
viooal conscience, or interfere with tbe right of private
judgment. Here then are tho proofs oi laxi'.y in religijus
belief, toe ex st once of which is disuunnraole to God and
injurious to His cause. How shall It be remedied? As
Churches of tbe Lord Jesus we have tbe power to awaken
a stronger puhlio sentiment in Uie mind of Cnristeadoui
for a in..re onwavering and sublime be. ief. Lotus in our
cburouer, and in our own hearts, e k for a mora vitnl
faith in the doctrine of Gcd's Word. Ijet us in our palpit
xalt the claims of Jesu, and elevate in cur preaching
and in our practice tbe statiuard of Christianity.
As baptized churches of the dear Redeener, set for tbe
detente of the Gospel, believing it is better toobeyG vl
tban man, let us take our stand b the old land'n irks and
seek to remodytlie prevalent laxity in religious belief by
an nncomprrmifing luiih in adherence to the appoint
ments of our Divino Lord, ,

ture the letters be referred to a committe1, whose
duty it shall be to extract from them whatever is of

laid upon the table.
At eleven o'clock the Rev. Mr. Hornberzer, of the
Spring Oaiden Baptist 'nurch. delivered a sermon,
that being the spec's! order for that hoar. ,
After some devotional exercises the reverend gen
tleman announced his text from tha Hth verse of the
Mb ibspter of tbe First epistle of John: "There are
three that bear witness on earth, the spirit, the water,
nr.d the blood, and these three agree In oue."
The following is a short abstract ot
The Hersaeai
The Spirit bears witness to the word.lbut this witness is
performed in various wars. Tbe Curialiaa dies. Natu
rally he bas lbs same misgivings as other man. but through
t he burnt lis is able to lean upon Const and die happy.
)Vs aevw st Uie uunodly die se. i heirs it aa tad ol
dark ritxpatr. The utmost that an ancient nhtlnsnpher
could say after a life of deep thought was, ' I believe that
tbrre is a life beyond.
Tbe seoond witness is tbe water, by which weaader
stsnd the ordinance of Christian baptism. When we see
a candidal going down into and coming again fross the
water, we see a type of Christ's death snd resurrection.
Thus by tbsordinanre the death and resurrection are con
tinued for ages. What eaa be said for those who setbut
a bght value oa (his testimony or do away with it alto
getner. m
The other witness is the blond, the Apostle referring
thus to ths holy supper of the Iord. The cora-nonion
exhibits the vicarious character of Christ's Buffering for
man. Probably there bas not been a Habbath since tbe
atoeneioa of nor Lord bnt that some body of Christ ians
bavegatht red somewhere to commemorate his sufferings
by tbe breaking of bread. Wbat greater proof can you
want of thee ivine nature of tbe man? Do not fear that
an overthrow can ever come 'o believers. Tou are bnilt
npon the firm foundation of Christ and the Aposties.
There is no other name known among men whereby we
may be anved "
At the conclusion of the sermon Mr. William Bnck

and the principal one is whett -c candidates for
baptism should be examined before tne church
aloue. Some dlBcussion took ylace on the subject,

shonid be given as a recommendation according to
the best experience.

Hrmlfnl, That this practice is no longerdefensibleatt.be
bar of the great Protestant principle expressed by Chil
lincwnrtli, "The liiblo and the Bible only' is tha religion
of Protestants; and, that as in the order of tne Muster's
teaching belief and baptism are indissolubly joined, that
ss in t he precepts and practice of apostolic timss Ave find
nothing interpolated between, we do not, ss Baptists, as
pire t a charity which passes the cunrity of inspiration,
but p tirnt ly await the baptism ef nor brethren of whatever

DEATH IN A STORM.
(Singular Death of sn Indian, his Stinaw, and
bis Don.
A Sioux City flowa) paper says : We learn
the follow tux interesting; particulars of the
death of the noted Indian farmer, Yellow Hawk,
and his wife and dog, near Fort Sully, from
Colonel BaDnistcr, who has just returned from
the Upper Country.
Yellow Hawk was a shrewd old Indian, who
had abandoned his native mode of life to a great
extent and gone to farming on tho Peoria Bot
tom, a fertile piece of land in the up river coun
try. By his industry and economy he had accu
mulated wealth enough to purchase a horse and
cart, with which he has been in the habit, for
the poet few years, of traversing the country,
and disposing of the products of his farm to the
different forts and posts within his reach. Ue
always carried with him a canvas tent, which
he would pitch whenever he saw aa approach
ing etorm.
About three weeks ago there passed over Fort
Sully a terrible thunder-storm, and in it old
Yellow Hawk yielded bp the ghost. On the day
following the etorm a party of men happened
to run upon a little canvas tent pitched upon
the river bank. There were no signs of life
about it, and one of the men, out of curiosity.
Vent to it, and lifting tbe canvas door stepped
in. There, in one end of the tent, sat Yellow
Hawk, erect and rigid as a statue, with his
eyes wide open, and one hand firmly grasped
on a dog's neck, and the dog standing on hU
fore legs, and partly sitting yn his haunches,
staring wildiDg in the same direction as his
master, while on the other side of the dog was
the wife of Yellow Hawk, resting on her elbow
upon the ground, and staring in the same direc
tion that the other occupants of the tents were
gazing. The man was inexpressibly terrified
by the spectacle, and his first impulse was to
run; but there was something so wildly strange
in their eyes and in the general expression of
their features, that he was bound to the spot.
Not a muscle of their faces moved, and they
held their positions like statues they were
dead!
The balance of the party were attracted to the
tent by the prolonged absence of their comrade,
and they saw the scene above described. They
left the tent without disturbing the attitudes of
tbe dead, and went n to Sully and reported
their discovery. A party of soldiers, immediately
repaired to the spot, aud found them still in the
same positions.
It is prebumed they were killed by lightning
during the storm of the previous night, still
there was no evidence that their death was
caused in this manner. Their features bore an
expression of intense fear, but there were no
signs of the lightning's work about them, or
about the tent. They were buried on the spot
where tbey were found by the Indians.
'
At the palace in Potsdam there U an un
wonted appearance of activity. All the prin
cesses and -their ladies are busily engaged la
picking lint.
Nearly thirty years ago Napoleon III pub
Ufbed a comparison in which he said: "France
with all her military expenditure wonld not be
able to bring 200,000 men Into line upon the
frontiers, while upon the line of the -Hhlne
alone 500,000 men could be collected against
her in less tban a fortnight.' This proved to be
very nearly the ease in the present war. In a
fortnight's time tbe Germans had about 500,000
mtB on tbe Rhine, and to these France opposed

Berlin, Oct. 0. King William sanctions the
demand made by the Germans who were ex

they have sustained thereby. The German mari
time towns also require special damages, assert
ing that, although their vessels escaped capture,
the injury to the shipping interests of the king
dom through their compulsory sojourn in
foreign harbors was great.
It Is complained that France has placed her
self Ih opposition to the progress of civilization
in having seized property on tho high seas, and
an indemnity is now asked for in order to pre
pare the way for the universal recognition of
the principle of the freedom of private property
In time of war under all conditions.

Complaints Against Mecretnry Cox.
Special Despatch to The Evening Tflesjraph.
Washington, Oct. 6. With regard to tho re
moval or resignation of Secretary Cox it may
be stated that the first complaint made against
him was by Senator Chandler and General
Cameron, members of tbe National Republican
Executive Committee. Chandler, it is said, de
nounced Cox to the President as a conservative
Copperhead, and stated that ho had endeavored
to interfere with the Republican Commit too in
making Its assessments.
As a matter of party policy, Chandler said It
was absolutely necessary that Cox should be
overrnled. and given a hint that he might re
sign. Both Cameron and Chandler, so the story
goes, urged Grant to appoint Senator Williams
to Cox's place. The President followed the
advice of Chandler so far as to overrule Cox in
his decision that clerks who go home to vote
shall have pay deducted for the time they are
away.
It is taken for granted by some that the Pre
sident will remeve Cox, or that the latter will
resign. This, however, is not so certain. Chan
dler swears he will have Cox out before the
close of the next session.
