At a Into Sunday Sellout Convention nt
Crinvfni'dsville, On., Jlr. Stephens njipMred
in tho north oud of tho eiit portico of I.lh
city Hall, his rosidoiKV, n:id stood mpported
by his t'rtilehes, while ho nddrcwoil the as
seiiililed iiiiiltltmlo gatliered nrouiid him,
(tniiilliig in tljrj fhadu of tlio widonprcading
oaks.
After ktiiiio introductory remark', Mr.
Stephens caid !
'I'ho potllinii I now occupy, and the ppheio
I now Ilil is new to me. Xever bolbro have
I tiil t". " 1 an audience, largo or small,
Upon i !" lolutlng exclusively, not to
tiling il. " til.-, but to that higher life,
whie'.i ' i e inn- after. If I haw not thus
before -,i,ikeil publicly Upon such tulijeet.s,
it hat inn, been because 1 havo not thought
most intensely and profoundly upon them
from iny oailiest youth, it is a Hourco of
high gmtifieiition to mo to say lo you all,
upon this occasion, and especially to these
little boys, that the (irt nwukcnitiy of such
thoii'ihts in my mind was in a Sunday
school, and my tasto for general reading was
first ipiiohciied and broiight into active e.ter-ci-o
iu a Hiinilav school. It was at the Old
l'owiler Creek Log Meeting House, not fivo
miles fi'ijni thi i place, molo than n hall cen
liuy ago, I became a pupil in what was
nowii in a "t'nioii Sunday School. The
day I entered it was a great epoch iu my
life. It was in tlie latter part of summer
tho school was opened, or when I entered it,
and though but a small boy at tho time, still
I had to do mch work on tlio farm as I was
able, to do during tho week; this was pick
ing cotton or peat, or going to mill, or other
light work of like, character. It was only
at night, nud by a pine-knot jjght, that I
had any opportunity to study tho lessons
asdgticd mo ; nud yet, so deeply did I be
coiii'" intere.-ted In tho questions of the
1"m. ii Catechism, thai tw i o'cluek olteti
fun! 1 me ii'i-.iring over the e'.ia'iU rs of the
lihh- set apart for the next Sdnd ij 's exmn-
inidtou.
To tho impressions thus made, I am in
Mod in no small degree for my whole
futuro course In life, whether it has been fin-
;ood or for evil. It in tho luidat of any
evil tiiat lias marred Unit course, there is
finv tiling good to be found, or anything
woi thy of imitation, then it is due to that
.-iindav school and to that great eati-c
which you lo-d.iy celebrate with inspiiing
mottoes, baniiiT'', and music
What 1 propose to.iy at this time will be
adilrcsHi'd chiefly to the teachers, though I
IriM some thoughts I may express will bo
uilik-ratood by een the youngest pupil pres
ent. Teachers of nil these schools, let me
then, deeply impros upon your minds the
high and sacred misMnn you have asiimeil.
n ri -poii- i'lility it is little, if any, le.-s than
that of those anilia-sudi rs whose iiii-iou it
is to b'.sc-ch a sinful tvoild tobecn'iierecni-
cilcd to (in.!. YVi'at I ('.mil civ to you wili
be I Tic!', nn I will i'h.i-i- but ft v,- points.
1. In the iir.s place, then, let me conjure
you thnl in your teachings you abstain from
ail ic'iiirious poh i, lies. Let tho leading ob
ject with jou be t,i impress upon tho minds
of the voting under your charge tho plain
precepts of the Unly Scriptures, tho princi
ples im l teachings of Christ and his apo.stlcs,
and the bie.vicd influences of tho Holy Spirit
to change tho heart and reform the life.
This leads me lo the second point in what
I have to :-.iy to you.
On" nt the lii-entest errors of the age is
an attempt, upon the part i f those who are
properly styin! lt.itiun.ilifts, to ij. ct all
truths, or to admit nothing as true which
will not bear the test of their intellectual
crucible, l roni tins class, at tins time, me
cause in which you arc engaged is in more
danger perhaps than ever before. In the
history of the human race there have been
several marked epochs. Tlie creation of
Adam and Kve, tho original progenitor-.,
with their fall, is ono of them, Tlio Hood
in the d-iys ol Xoah is another. Tho cove
nant with Aliriiliain another. Tho coming
of tin- Messiah, with tho in.-tiliitlon of that
my-ti.: organization known as the Christum
Church, another. We now hvo In tho nine
teenth century of this Inst great epoch or
era, and never before perhaps as I have
.iid, were the great truths of tho Bible,
IViiui (lencsU to lievelation,moro powerfully
n .sail' d than at pi.-ent, Thoso lio lead
the its'! mil tiro tho Hitionuli-ts relerrod to.
Thev u'o iiI-m ku.iwa as Materialists in phi
losophy, 'lii.-y live indeed piiilooophers uf
a h'gh order, and many ol them have titme
n v.i-t deal towards tho advancement oi
ph- -leal science In this day nnd generation,
but upon liio .disject of religion, or man's
rehit.t'it to t'.o l ity, thty have done, ami
nic ti ling, infinite jnU-chicf, The) wi iters,
among whom may bo named Couipto, Hux
ley, tsptneir, Uuiwin, nnd many others ui
the Kime sthonl, you may bo assured, are
making a de -p inipivulon upon the thinkers
of tlie tue, Their disciples tiro iimnerou',
including men, ami women too, of minds ol I
the higuest order. '1 his laet i i not to be
ignored. Tho usuu'.t.s of this school are to
bo met, nnd their sopliUms nusivcriil mm
confuted by the doctrines of tho Kuuday
ehool, by upholding smd sustaining, as it is
yuur ini.ssiuii to tin, tho plain and simple
spiritual truths ol the liible. ino iiinna-
mental error ol those iihilotoplierH releneil
to is the assumption that nothing is to bo
reeo'u-d a ttue which lie.theyoiiil tlie power
of huma'i reason ami human intellect.
They utterly ignore the great hut and irillh
of man's triune nature. In philosupby they
may well bo termed MaicrlalUtu, lor they
hohl that man is composed ul but two ele
ments, matter ami miml, Hotly unit iiitciieci.
The higher mid nobler part of nU nature,
hU spiiit or wiul, that which links him with
tho divinity, they Veem lo know nothing
about. According lo their philosophy, man
is hut a dual exUleiice, iu which he tlili'ers
not lioiu the bnue or inferior animals, ex
cept iu the, ibi m of his body, and the higher
development of the thinking attributes.
Tiio Ilible teaches tlio great truth that,
iii'urthe inferior uuinials were made, I iml
called man into ix.stence, eiuitcd in ills
own image and likcne- as to the trinity of
his coiiipotitiun, Man was composed nut
only of body, uud the elements of thought,
or mind, or thinking principle with which
the inl' lior animals were endowed, but in
addition to iln-c the great Creator breathed
into him a living spirit or Immortal soul.
Man, therefore, is a trinity, composed ol
bmly, mind, in.tl spirit or soul, The three
clcmwits oi his nuiure, though united in
liaiiu di!"U r.'-tti'ti, tire yet i-eparato und dis
tinct. The laws, moreover, which govern
J875.
ono nro totally different from thoso which
ffovern each of tho others, The laws which
govern Iho origin of life, and tho vital func
tions of the body during life's existence, arc
no lets distinct and dlirercnt from thote
which govern the Intellectual operations,
thnn the latter are distinct nnd different
from thodo which govern tlio moral, dovo
tiouni, nud spiritual part of tho triune being.
When intellect, therefore, undertakes to
Kuhjoct lo it tho operations of the ftoul or
Kpiritunl part of man, it travels out of its
domain, and attempts lo solve question?
which lie entirely out of its sphere. Mmi
Id, Indeed, most mysteriously, as well as
"fearfully und wonderfully made." In
body, lie is loril of the animal creation on
earth, lly intellect, ho can hoIvo many
most ab-vtriifo problems in physical nnd ma
terial noienee. lie can, nnd has unfolded
many of the peerets of nature nrniind us.
He can explain tho phenomena of ocean
currents and depths, explain tho laws which
govern tides, winds', storms, nnd tornadoes.
1 Iu can iniike clear to the commonest under
"landing the principles which govern cloud
indoors in their formation and progress,
with their tremendous elements of rain, hall,
and lightning I Guided by liio unerring
law of the intellect in search of those phys
ical truths which lie within its proper do
main, ho can not only penetrate earth's in
nermost purls, and read, witli unerring
accuracy, iu history for cycles of ages ante
rior to the creation of tho human race, but
can soar to the skies calculate eclipses
mi.fiiretho distance to tho moon, tho sun,
the planet, and far-oil' stars ; and give their
weights to the fraction of an avordilpois
pound. AH this lies within intellect's legit
imate sphere ; but under its guidance ex
clusively, man can gain no knowledge of
the operations of his own spirit, or that soul
which unites him, and puts him in com
munion by regeneration, through the mys
tery of the atonement, with the Almighty
hlmsci I'!
On this subject intellect, by itself, is nn
utterly un.iblu to give him any light tt it is
to eutible hit i tj uiiilci diuid anything a'.out
Itii-el.iws Winch g n -rn liif principle,! l
lile, or tii'.-'o vi'il ii-ii -lions by which il is
M!4aincti. Far bo il from tlie tuiche.- of
Biblical truths to decry the grand achieve
ments of science in its legitimate spjiere.
Their province Is to show tho proper bound
aries lo which intellect, according to tho
laws of its own exbtcnee, ami by tlio rules
of reason, nut -t be confined.
Nothing is truer than that
"A lltllJ learning Is a dangerous thins;
Drink djop, or t.isle not, tho 1'lerlan spring;
1'orblnllow draughts lu tjuleate tho brain,
An 1 drjuktwr deeply s jbers us oxalu."
While the shallow draughts drawn from
the intellectual fount do often but intoxicate
the brain, yet ''drinking deeply'' from tho
ever-Jiving waters of Divine inspiration
never sails to "sober us again." It is from
this source ti-at nun is taught that in spirit
ual mailers ihe wisdom ol Ibis world is
olion fniiiiil t i be but foolishness when bal
anced in tin- heavenly scales.
Tlie d ic.i-iiie.i of ihe Ilible teach not only
thai i.'.:..i is a trinity, with .separate and tlis
tiuc; e iiiiponc.-it parts as stated, and which
are cell governed by laws operating iu dif
ferent spheres, but that tho great object of
this probationary life is to cultivate, develop,
and keep pure all the-e parts or elements
the body, as well us the mind and soul.
Tin scare some of the plain and simple
truths, teachers, which I have thought it
proper to say you should impress upon the
minds of your pupils. i!y these doctrines
and principles they will not only be shielded
against the errors dated, but their innate
moral souse will be cultivated their spirit
ual attributes of v, ot.ship and devotion will
be developed through tlie mysterious agency
ul prayer, ami their regeneration that new
spiriitial liitth, through faith,. so essential to
salvation, will bo con-umniated, ami by
which their fallen human natures will be ele
vated and sublimated to a proper fitness for
that higher lile, in which they will bo in
r.eifeet and eternal communion with their
Creator.
To von, little children, I tay, "Let no ono
deceive voti." let no temntiii ' doctrines of
any philosopher, however learned, beguile
vou into the belief that you have not in you
somethin;; which placet you high iu the
Mialc of txi'teiitj above the bate brute, the
hore, or the d ig. liver l.ccp it in your
memories lh.it vou havo not only a body
with its various members, und an intellect
to control tl.Oae members, but that jou havo
also within you a null, u spiritual part,
which gives to you immortality, llccolleet
that, uccordiiijr to the divine teaching, the
body is tiio temple tif Hod, and should
therefore, not be mglected or unduly cared
for, but that it, na weil as the intellect and
the soul, should ba duly cultivated ami Uf
vcloped so as to fit them in tiio iwirrccliou
for that life hereafter, where there will be
no more pain nor bull'ering, but an eternity
of perfect happiness.
Tlio lltl'di'il KstiltC
No trust hcqiit'iuiv.d by wealth to poster
ity has ever been so hnucstly mid eliicieutly
iimnii-.'i'.l as that of the millionaire CiirarU
to Philadelphia, lie gave freely of hi
i?'.l,lIO,iiufi, notably n fund of i,UOO,000 for
lh founding of tlio orphans' home. It is
erected on a tract of lorty-one acres within
the city limits j contains to-day COO parent
lesj little one, and is in a ilouiishing condi
tion. Tito building cost tho amount of tho
specific bequest and tho institution is sup.
ported out of the net incoino ot the Uirard
e.tale, wlii.'h hist year was i?l!!S,f!21. Dur
ing the last four years tho trustees havo
profitably Invested $SO0,Oi)0 of surplus in
come from tlio etato Tho desire of the
tostnt ir that no minUer or rellgluus teacher
ever bo pirmltted to cuter tho homo has
boon religiously re.peetcd. Among ills
other bequest to Philadelphia was $10,000,
the Income of which was to bo expended in
tho purchase of fuel for the poor, and has
noblv served that end. Yet it is a fact Unit
preachers do go there, denying that such is
their occupation, L'ldeaija Timei.
lllshop Ames lells a story of a whlto man
in Mi-nmri.in the cldcn time- of slavery,
who said to one of his ervuuts: "Poinpey,
I hear you are it great preacher." ''Ye,

let us have n plain word about the greed
for sermon", tn prevalent in these latter day.
Wo doubt whether there over was a time In
thp history of tlio Christian Church when its
inlulftcni were placed in ho awkward, diffi
cult, and unjust a position as they are to-day,
fircnt, pxpensivo edifices of worship are
built, for which tiio builders run heavily in
debt. That debt can only bo handled, tlio In
terest on it paid, and the principal reduced,
by filling it with n large ft'itl intirerted con
gregation, That congregation cannot be
collected nnd held without brilliant preach
ing, Ilrillinnt preaching is scarce, because,
nnd only bcc.iue, brilliant men are scarce,
and scarcer still the brilliant men who havo
the gift of eloquence. So soon, therefore, ns
a man shows that ho cannot attract tlio
crowd, "down goes his house." lie may be
a scholar, a saint, a man whose examplo is
the sweetest sermon that a human life ever
uttered, a lovely friend, a faithful pastor, a
wiso spiritual adviser, and oven a sermonizci
of raro attainments and skill, but if he can
not draw a crowd by tho attractive gifts of
popular eloquence, ho must bo sacrificed to
tho exigencies of finance. Tlio church
must be tilled, the interest on tho debt must
bo paid, and nothing can do this but it man
who will "draw." Tho whole thing is man
aged like a theatre. If nn nctoreannotdraw
full hnites, the rent cannot be paid. So tho
actor is dismissed and a new one is called to
t.iko his place.
There is an old-fashioned idea that a
church is built fur the purposes of public
worship. It is not a bad idea ; and that ex
hibition of Christianity which presents a
thousand lazy people sitting bolt upright in
their best clothes, gorging sugar-plums, is
not a particularly brilliant ono. It was once
supposed that a Christian had something to
do, oven as a layman, and that a pastor was
a leader and a director in Christian work.
There certainly was a time when tho burden
of a church was not laid crusaingly upon
the shoulders of its minister, and when
Christian men and woni"n sto'il by the man
who was true to his office an 1 ir.i" to them.
W
c -cm to have outlive 1 i(, a i I a thousand
American ehiir -lies, partic.il -.rly among the
great centres of population, uro groaning
over discomfiture in the sad results. Tntcnd
of laying their own debls like men, they lay
them on tho backs of their llotindoring min
isters, and if hccinnot lift them, they go htint-
ig fin- spinal columns that will, or tongues
that hld a charm for their dissipation. It
is a wrong and a shame which ought lo be
abolished, just as soon as sensible men have
cad this article.
Who was primarily in tho blame for this
condition of tilings, wo do not know; but
we suspect tho ministers themselves ought
to bear a portion of it. Beginning in New
Dngl ind years ago, the sermon in America
has always been made too much of. The
great preachers, by going into their pulpits
Sunday after Sunday with their supreme in-
tillectual ri.'irt--, havo created tho demand
sii"h ell'ort. Metaphysics, didactics,
tpologeti'-s, arrayed ill robes of rhetoric, have
held high con verso with them. The great
tlicli-gieal wrestlers have made tho pulpit
their arena of conflict. Homilies have grown
into sermons and sermons into orations.
Preachers have a-k set aside the teach
ers simple lor mat oi ino orator.
Thev will not admit that they have been in
tho wrong. Witli a knowledge of the human
mind which cannot but make them aware
that no more than a single good sermon can
be digested by a congregation in it day, and
that everv added word goe- to the glut of
intellect and feeling, and the confusion of
impressions, they still go on preaching twice
and thrice, and seem mure averse than any
others to a change of policy. It is an intel
lectual gormandizing, an I no activity,
and no rest rellection. It is all
cram and no couflectioii, and they seem just
us averse to stop craniing as they did before
they apprehended and bemoaned the purer
tv of its lesitlfs.
But we arc consuming too much of their
time. Tlio dragon, with its multuilinous
heads, nnd arms, and feet, is to meet them
next Stiinlav witli its mouths all open. It
has done nothing all tho week bulslecp, nud
it is getting hungry. Woe lo him who has
not his twa biz sermons riivly! Insatiate
monster, will not one suffice'.'
"No." says tho dragon; "No," n-ivis his
keeper and feeder. Brains, paper, ink,
lungs ho wants all you can give, and you
must give him all you can. Tho hoti'O must
ba nihil, the debt must be paid, and you
mutt be a popular preacher, or got out of the
way. Meantime, the dingon sleeps, nnd
meantime the city is badly i tiled; drunken
ness debauches the people under the shield
of law, harlotry joitics our youth upon the
sidewalks, obsceno literature Blares our
daughters out of couiitonaiico from Iho news
stands, and litllo children, with no play
ground but tlio gutter, and no homo but a
garret, are growing up in ignorancoand vice.
If tills lazy, overfed, loosely articulated
dragon could only bo split up into ncttvo
men and women, who would shut their
mouths and open their eyes nnd hands, wo
could have something different. But tho
sermon is tlio grent tiling j tho piople think
so, and tlio p'eneher ngretswith them. We
should like to know what Iho Msutcr thinks
about it. 6'ci-ioiifi'.

Ono of the most exqui.-ite wondcn o( tho
sea is tlio opelet, a (lower resembling very
much tho German China aster. It Ilia tho
appearance of a largo double aster, with a
quantity of petals of a light green color,
glassy as silk, caeli petal tipped with rose
color. Tlieso lovely petals aro never still,
but wnvo about iu Iho water, while tho
llower clings lo tlio rock. Ho innocent und
lovcly-loukiiig, no one er.uld suspect it of
eating anything; certainly if it did, only a
bit of rainbow or a drop ot dow. But Ihnso
beautiful waving petals have other and
more material work to do to provide food
for a large mouth, which is cunningly hid
deep down among them. They do their
duty famously; for, as soon as a silly littlo
fish comes, in contact with those rosy tips, bo
is btruck witli a poison fatal nud quic' as

be inclined to ny "then I prc'Uino this book

Observations regarding the growth of man
have determined the following interesting
facts: "The most rapid growth takes place
immediately after birth, the growth of nn
infant during tho (lnl year of its exisienco
being about eight iuche. This ratio of in
crease gradually decreases until tlio ago of
tiireo years is reached, at which time tlio
size attained is half that which it is to be
come when full grown. After live years tlie
succeeding increase is very regular till the
sixtoenth year, being ut the rate, for t.io
averago man, of two inches a year. Beyond
sixteen the grnwtli i feoblo being for tlio
following two years about slxlocnth's of an
inch a year; while from eighteen to twenty
the increase in height is seldom ovir ono
inch. At the ago of twenty-live the growth
ceases, havo in a few exceptional eases.
