ALBERT IUKXES. Memorial Herman Delivered YeMerday by Itcv. llcrrlrk Jobunoo, D. U. Yesterday morning, at the First Presbyte rian Church, on Washington Square, the pastor, the Rev. llerrick Johnson, D. D., de livered a sermon on "The Life and Death of Rev. A'bert Barnes." TL church was well filled, not only by the regular attendants, but by a large number of visitors from other places of worship, who assembled to listen to Mr. Johnson on a theme at once painful and yet so interesting. Mr. Johnson commenced his sermon, taking Lis text from Psalms xxxvii, 21 "The steps of a good man are adored by the Lord, and he delighteth in his way." Not a sparrow falls to the ground without divine permission. The Heavenly Father feedeth them. God appointed the stars in their courses, and amidst the living are His purposes fulfilled. The way of man is not in himself. In Him we live and have our being. To Him be praise forever. Nothing, there fore, is outside God's providential govern ment. The text is in the form of a general propo sition, alluding to all, but the context de mands and specifies reference to the right eous, to one in whom God takes pleasure. and hence the translators have supplied the word "eood." Both good and bad, however, come under His plan. God tempts no man to evil, but Lie does tempt man to good. God delighteth in the way of tne uprignt man, w hose end is peace. No fitter illustration of these words were ever given than in the life of Albert Barnes. In his "Life at Three Score and Ten," he said his whole life had been under a higher power, and what he had done had been done as though he had no agency in the matter. In the ordering of his btepu there had been evidences of an approving Providence. This is proved by the fruits of his life and the universal consent of Christendom. He had known trials, but he had never been utterly cast down, for tne L.ora upneia nun. Mr. Barnes was born in Rome, New York State, on the 1st of December, 17H8. He was intended for the profession of the law, I r t i hm in llniiiilton ( 'olie". lnlM'l M and then consecrated himself to the work of the ministry. lie entered the theologioal seminary at Princeton, N. J., and was licensed to preach the Gospel on the 23d. of April, 1S23. He was ordained in Morristown, New Jersey, on the 8th of February, 1825. After five years there he was called to the pastoral chargo of the First Presbyterian Church of this city, and was installed on the 2fth of January, 1830. For thirty -seven years he discharged his duty in the pulpit of that church, and resigned on the 18th of November, 18(7, when he was elected pastor emeritus, lie died on the 14th of December, 1870. The date of his birth and that of his death mark the limits of a life having few parallels. There was nothing in the opening years as especially marked, but it was thought by his teacher that he gave promise of more than usual proficiency. It was thought that the law was suited to him. To the age of nine teen he had no belief in the Bible as the word of God. It was doubtless this early unbelief that gave him such ability in stating clearly the doubts of an unbeliever. He used to say his own early doubts were stronger than any he had ever seen expressed by any subsequent unbeliever. An article from Dr. Chalmers, in the Edinburgh lieview, first led him to lead to the knowledge of the necessity of moral life. His entire conversion, however, was due to a simple statement of a classmate. He always spoke of this as the change which affected bis plans in this life. It gave to the world the people's commentary. How signal the illustration that weak things in human estimation may be great things in God's ! Giving up his law, he entered the theologi cal seminary, and became a diligent student. Finishing his Princeton career, he assumed bis first charge as pastor at Morristown, N. J. He was thoroughly examined by the pres bytery, and ordained with great unanimity. Iltro he formed all those habits of regularity which w ere so useful to him in after life. The Sabbath-schools were assuming their im portance, and he became fixed with the know ledge of the fact of the necessity of useful commentaries on the Gospels, designed for Sunday-school teachers and Bible classes. He little thought when he first planned these works that ho would make his name a house hold word almost wherever language is spoken. Thus were the steps of this good man ordered by the Lord. In his first position he took grounds in favor of temperance. He had said, when he began his ministry in Morristown, there were nineteen distilleries and twenty drinking places where liquor was Rold. Through his labors eighteen of the drinking places and seventeen of tho nineteen distilleries gave up their work. Thirty years after, when the flood-gates of this iniquity were broken down, when the press" spoke not against it, and the pulpit was dumb, he dared to be singular, end said that the true and safe principle would be to prohibit that which spreads death and ruin around the land; he publicly advocated these principles till ho died. There was another source of evil in the land, of which he was as great an opposer as he was of intemperance human bondage. lie said tne gospel was an epistle of deliver ance to the captive, and by the freedom of the truth all the chains of slavery would be broken. He never hesitated to express his opinion of the evils, the wrongs, the crimes of Blavery. He thought it a violation of human right, and contrary to the will of God. Ills was the calm, sober conviction of a sober, truthfnl, loving man of God, and he gave it expression on every fitting occasion. He never attended an anti-slavery convention in his life, and it was only in the direct channels of his duty that he expressed his conviction. For many years he stood almost alone among his people in opposition. He did it when the mayor, firemen and police stood quiet while Penn sylvania Hall was fired by a mob and burned; he lifted up his voice in the pulpit and preached a sermon on the supremacy of tho law, and defended tne oppressed while the gates of the church were locked to prevent a disturbance. He did it again in 1851 in a discourse on one of the Psalms, when he said that if a man should come to him for safety, he would do as he would expect any man to do for his son under similar circumstances. He wrote and published his "Enquiry into the Scriptural View of Slavery; ' and during his last years he thanked God ho could die seeing America without a slave, and a land where a man could look in the face of every other man and say, "I, too, am free." His connection with the managerial gov ernment of the House of Refuge extended for many years, and he preached on the third Sunday of each month to the children of the colored department, and on the fourth Sun day of each month to the children of the white department. The work, however, the principal work of his life, and in which he was singularly suc cessful, was his proparation of the notes on the Bacrcd Scriptures. He says he had no special preparation for them, and made it a side work altogether.and for this work ho rose at 4 every morning and worked to t for more than thirty years. The subject of his ministry was then touched upon. From a sermon preached at Morristown, after a revival there, called "The Way of Salvation," a call was sent him from this church, which he accepted. He found here a united people. During the six years of conflict which ensued, his peo ple never wavered. To this conflict Mr. Johnson referred only by alluion, and said that to Albert Barnes it had been a terrible time till he come out of the conflict aoquitted by the highest judicatory in the Church, and without a stain. After poaoe he went steadily on with his pastoral work. Mr. Johnson then made a rapid sketch of the principal events in Mr. Barnes life for the few succeeding years, giving quotations from his writings of the various doctrines wmcu ue aeienaea. From his gradual impairment of vision he ultimately disoslved his connection with the church. This event took place on November 18. 1807. After his resignation ho continued at various times to minister to his old flock, and was seldom absent from the festival of the Lord's supper. What eulogy shall we pass upon suoh a life? How did he rise irom comparative obscurity to his proud eminence as an author ? Let us say as he would have siid, it is not so much due to the man as the God who called -such a man. "The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord." But it is true that with our ends our own rough hew ice has something to do. Behold the life work! What an example for young men; especially for those entering the ministry. He would do no moral wrong. lie opposed the running of the street cars on the Sabbath, unavailingly it is true, but to the end of his life he never rode in one on the Sabbath day. He was full of charity. Though prosecuted himself, he never prosecuted another. He never could have it his heart to have embit tered any life. He held firmly to truth and no power could sweep Liui from his moor ii f h. Ho Morel flu re Jika th c vr1 1 all bis virtues was his purity, born of th grace of God. He walked among men as one who had walked with God. He transformed his Cbrist-like spirit more and more, as if h seemed bathed in the glory looking down npon him from the eternal throne. At last God heard bis prayer that some disease with gentle stroke might dismiss him to a naf retreat. The stroke was gentle. II did not. know w hen it touched him. He fell asleep and woke with Oed. At the conclusion of Mr. Johnson's address the choir performed the sentence "I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me 'Write, blessed are they which die in the Lord, from henceforth, yea, saith tho Spirit, that they may rest from their labors, and thpir works do follow them,' " specially arranged by Prof. Everest, the organist, for the occasion.
