ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIBLE SOCIETY. SERMON OF THE REV. H. HARBACUII, AND CORRESPONDENCE RELATIVE THERETO. LANCASTER, Dec. 1, 1854 Rev. H. LIARBALTII Dear Sir :—The undersigned have been appointed a committee, by the Lancaster County Bible Society, fo solicit is copy of the appropriate and able discourse you de livered at the late anniversary of said so ciety, for publication. Very respectfully yours, " W. BISHOP, • ROBT. D. CARSON. LANCASTER, Dec. :2, 1854. Rev. W. BISHOP, ROBT. D. CARSON, Esq. : Herewith I transmit to you the sermon which you as a committee, request for pub lication. It was written '-I feel it my duty to say, at intervals snatched from compa ny and other business, on the day of and previous to the anniversary, and cannot, therefore, be as clear and connected as 1 should desire in yielding it to the public in print. With this explanation, I submit it to you and to those to whom it may come. Yours truly H. EL.A.R.BAUGH. "As the truth ie in Jesus."—Eph. iv. '2l We are.engaged in circulating the Bible -THE BOOK. If it be asked more nearly, what is its substance—what are its contents ?--a thou 7, sand, answers will be at once returned.— One will answer—lt is a book of cunning ly devised fables," gotten up by imposters; another replies—it is a collection of myths which originated in the childhood of na tions, and have gradually assumed the ear nest reality and solemnity of facts ; anoth will say—lt is a work of wise men, written as a commentary on, and a confirmation of natural religion; another—lt is a system of divine revelation, containing instruc tions to a divine and moral life; another— It is a book of laws, histories, doctrines and promises, intended as guides to heav en; having all its influence from its adap tation to move the minds and motives of men. Even when it is agreed upon that its contents "are . truth, there are still a thou sand answers to the question, what is the truth which it contains. One will have its truth measured and moulded by the truths of science; another, by reason; another by common natural sense; another by natural instincts and feelings; another by any and every individual mind. It comes, therefore, as a very important practical question to us—what is the Bibl6l What is it independent of, and over, all science, reason, opinion; or the judgments of men? What is it absolutely in itself—as it comes to us, not to be measured and moulded by our minds and hearts, hut to measure and mould them; challenging our attention and reverence—as it comes to all men, wise and foolish, high and low, good End bad, as a power over them?— What is it, as it knocks at the gate of the palace, the door of the beggar's hut, the portals of science, the cabin of the slave, the cell of the prisoner—alike and the same to all? What do we desire to say it is in itself, as we seek to place it in every fam ily, in every hand and in every heart ? “The truth as it is in Jesua." As it is in my science ? No, beyond that. AB it is in my reason and sense ? No be yond,that. As it is in my views and desires ? No, beyond that. As it is in my age and country I No, deeper still As it is in my sect and system? No deeper still. No, no-- fore and above and over all these—the truth as it is in Jesus—from Him by Him, through Him and. to Him. We may have and• give the truth as it in science, systems, sects,—as it is iii his tory, traditions, interpretations—as it isin letters, verses, chapters—as it is in packs of paper and parchment,--as it is in pul pits, in sermons ) in Sabbath-schools, in families in book-oases, on parlor tables— in leather, satin or gold—we may have it in all these ways and give it in all these ways, to all, and. yet we may have and may have and mar have given, what remains nothing but a sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. “Ye have not so learned Christ; if so be that ye have heard Him, and have been taught by Him as the truth is in Josus."— If we will know its contents, we must learn it in Him and from Him. Jesus is the source and centre of all truth. As the leaves,blossoms, fruit, twigs, branches and trunk of a tree must be traced back,to the germ in the seed, so must all that the Bible reveals be traced to its centre and source in Jesus. "I am the truth." In Him are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. There was no truth before Him. In the beginning, before all worlds and beings, was already the Word. That Word was with God, was God, and that same Word was made flesh, and dwelt among men, full of grace and truth. The revelations of the Old Testament were in and from Jesus. "Before Abra ham was I am." The truth was by Moses by David,by Solomon and by the Prophets, b .t in them. The holy men of old, who sp . e in God's name, themselves did not even always• understand what they spoke, for they searched diligently "what manner of time Spirit of Christ,- which was in them did signify." In Christ -was the truth absolutely, as source, in them only relatively, as channels and reflectors. As all the Old Testament truth goes out from him, `§o it shows back to Him. He is in it what the life is in a tree; take him out, and all is a dead skeleton that can utter no meaning. He that has not found Jesus iu the Old Testament; has, not the key of any of its truths. In his case, as in the case of the Jews, the veil remains: untaken away when they read. it, "which veil is done away in Christ." There is no truth separate from Him. "I am the light of the world." He is the sun. All other bodies are dark. He only hath light in Himself. What seems to be light in the Pagan world and in the minds of natural men, is only reflected light. In Him is its home. As in the nat ural.world no body shines unless it is first ihonc upon ;• so in the spiritual world there is no truth except in the presence, power and light of Him who alone is the truth.—' All truth is bid in Him—hid from the wise and prudent—hid until it is by Him re vealed to such as receive it as little chil dren—revealed in Him—to no one separate from Him. • Since the Saviour's incarnation, there is no truth that is not in Him. Even the Holy Spirit has no new revelations to make though He is the Spirit of truth. He shall only •'lead into truth.'.' "He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak." "He shall take of mine and, show it unto you." "He shall teach you all things, and bring all things unto your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." The truth is only in Je sus. He that supposes himself to have learned any truth from the Spirit which he has not before learned from Jesus, de ceives himself by a fancy. The more closely we examine the Sa cred Volume, the more will we find that all its contents are truth in Jesus, and that they have no value to us or to the world, except as they are so received, understood and given. All its LAWS are the divine will in Jesus—"in the hands of a Media tor." By him the moral law was given— "in the hands of a Mediator"—by Him completed, in Him fulfilled. The law on tables of stone, as an outward rule, is an abstraction, a dispensation of death. It was never intended to be complete in that form. It was to be taken up in Christ, and to be made a living law in Him; to be in Him fulfilled. In Him alone is the letter of the law filled out with its proper life and spirit. It is only in Christ Jesus that it is "a law of life"—a living law. It is only in Jesus that the law becomes a true law to saints. In union with Him, the law is put into their minds, and writ ten upon their hearts. Thus as John teach es, the law becomes a new law, and yet it is the old, still—it becomes new iu that it has attained its true position, relation, and power in Christ Jesus, and in those who are one with Him in a new life. So, the ceremonial law is only true in Jesus. To Him it points—Him it typides —in Him it ends. It would, indeed, be a shadow, if He were not seen as its sub stance. In Jesus, what seems to our nat ural sense trivial, in the ceremonials of the old testament, acquires a momentous, sub lime and solemn meaning. He is the Sun, in the presence of which all the Jewish ceremonials appear in glorious light. It is the same with the Judicial law of the Jews. It was the discipline of the Na tion for a coining Christ. It was a school master to train and turn the national feel ing to Him as its centre and soul. By it the tribes were all bound together unto the hope of Israel. He is the Shilo of Judah —the central tribe, to whose hand alone the sceptre at last belongs, and to whom the gathering together of the people shall be. To Him shall the nations bow as once did all the sheaves of his brethreu to Jos eph's sheaf. As to prophecies—"Of him gave all the prophets witness." Whatever may be their nearer meaning, and their earlier fulfil ment in the events of nations, yet these become themselves again prophetic sym bols whose end and meaning is in Jesus. "The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." All prophecy finds its mean ing in the spirit and position of John the Baptist, crying I am not he, but "Behold the Lamb of God !" .1f we examine the history of the Sacred Volume, we find that it also finds its full and final meaning in Jesus: What is it but the account of men, who sought Him, who had found Him, or who hated Him.— AlLthe occurrences of sacred History are but the movings and activities of that di vine and gracious w.u.a, which has its most central, and its greatest manifestation in Jesus. If now we follow down the stream of time, and of history, and notice how the true contents of the Bible have beenf,un folded in the consciousness of the Church, we shall see that all doctrines grow out of, and show back to Jesus. As He stood in the midst of the Seven Golden Candle sticks,"So He stands in the centre 'of all faith, illuminating all by His own light, and animating all by His own life. As a branch out from the tree is dead, so all truth, all doctrine and all faith is dead, except in Jesus. In Him is the vigorqf eternal life—in Him truth is as fresh water " THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST.

Nouc of it was written before His death—some of it pot till near a century after His incarna tion. It existed in a living form, iu living regenerated hearts. The word in them, and they in Christ. Thus it was, even when it was not yet written, the truth in Jesus. It was afterwards recorded by then as the outward expression of the truth as it was in Jesus; while it was still published and perpetuated in living hearts. On the parchment it was the letter, in the hearts of the saints it was spirit and life. It was not the truth as it was on the parchment, but the truth as it was in the new life of saints, and through them traced back to Jesus, that had power, and was the deep est manifestation of truth.' Oh how many have the truth as it is on paper, who have never felt the least power of the truth as it is in Jesus. How many I have never been brought into such union with Christ, as to find and feel, that the Bible is the representative of any thing beyond what the natural eye, and the nat ural heart can perceive. How many there are who have never yet learned the secret of the Lord as it is with them that fear him, to whom alone he will show his covenant. The seed of the word must have a soil —that soil is Christ formed in the heart the hope of glory. The Saviour's parable teaches us that the ground must be pre pared for seed. It must fall into good ground. The grain of wheat accidently wrapped up with an Egyptian Mummy dill be there for thousands of years, manifest ing no power of growth or increase. The word of God may be in the houses, hands, brains, memories of men, but is the truth there, not in Jeius. It is out of its soil. It is in stony places, by the road side, on the rock, and there it remains alone. This accounts for the fact that the ho liest men, not the most learned, have al ways entered mostly into the divine word. Piety, faith, have always been the true in terpreters of the Holy volume. "if any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether, it be of God." thank thee, 0 Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth, thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes." This accounts for the ta.,t that the Church is zealous in circulating the Bible in proportion as it is under the true power of the life of Jesus, the Head. Trtie love and zeal will only give to oth ers what it has learned to understand and value itself. Those ages, and countries, in which the deepest piety has prevailed have alone done most to spread truth. They felt the truth, not as it existed in volumes, stored away as a literary curiosity, but as it was in Jesus. To them it had come, and by them it was circulated, with the energy and vigor of that eternal life of which it was the offspring—as the living will of Jesus. In the first ages, when the Church felt the vigor of its youth running through all its veins, it held forth the word of life with the steady energy, and holy defiance of a martyr's zeal and love. Later, when Northern barbarism, and Southern effemi nacy, combined with the colossal powers of existing paganism. poured in upon the bosom of the Church; it, was as when a strong man is crushed by heavy pressure. With wounded hands the word of life was held forth in weakness. The inward life beat but feebly through the dark, desd mass. But time brought forth triumph, and new life gave new impulse to the spread of truth. Jesus appeared anew, and the truth appeared in Him with the energy for a life that beats direct from the heart. In the ages to which we refer when on ac count of the hea,vy muss of unpenetrated, uusanctified, and unappropriated powers which had fallen in upon the bosom of the Church, anything short of the direct exer cise of authority, and the application of external power, seemed too slow a process to meet the threatening emergency—the offices of Jesus in the Church were gradu ally reversed. Instead of following the order of the commission which is teach, baptize, rule; the first was gradually ne glected while the two last became promi nent, and the very last most of all. In stead of Prophet, Priest, and King, it was King, Priest, Prophet. The pulpit with its prophetic voice became comparatively silent, consequently the altar grew dark, and authority reigned , in the exercise of blind and fearful powers. Religion be came more an outward than an inward power—rather an exhibition to the senses than a light to faith. Because the Proph et was silent, the Priest grew superstitious, and the King arrogant and arbitrary. In that age religion culniniated in power— power that lacked light; and on this ac count left chaotic and lifeless, all that lay beneath it. Jesus, and the truth in Him was still in the Church. His promise "10, lam with you" was not forgotten! Cast down, but not destroyed. History gathered strength ? A better age began to dawn—better as it was later. Thus does the stream gather new power farther on its way. The age that came did not create a new christianity or a new history, but restored the order of its Factors. It is the honor and glory, as it is the justification of the :1:4; LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD."-BUCHANAN _ . work of circulating the Holy Scriptures.— One example must suffice. Dr. Levander Van Esq., Roman Catho lic Professor and Pastor at Marbtirg, in 1817 translated the new Testament i ttier man. This translation, which is prop need bylearned Protestants an excellent o e, re ceived theapprobation of no lessthant ,irteen of the highest ecclesiastical dignita ies of .Europe in the Catholic Church, an is by 1 them recommended to be used in s hools, families, and by private 'christians. It is published with a most excellent int odue tion of more than 40 pages, in which tile i general reading of the Scriptures by Chris tians is advocated with astonishing clear ness, decision and force. Quotati ns are produced, long and short, from 140 less than fifty-four Fathers, Bishops, i'opes, Cardinals, and other dignitaries from Clem ens and Ignatius down to Pius the V 1.,. born 1717, and the Pastoral letter of a Salsburger Bishop, 1782, advocating the right and the necessity of the general reading of the Holy Scriptures. Of this translation of the truth as it is in t Jesus, the astonishing number of 456,87 , copies were circulated in less than five y4ars af ter its publication ! Such was the desire for the word of life created in thd minds of the people by that movement whi6h ask ed for the restoration of the pr phetic voice: in the church. Such is th deep sens&of.thel-church, whenever it c rnes to expeess itself, of the truth, tjaat pie y, like plants, cannot flourish, grow beautiful, blotun; and bear fruit, except in the free light of } heaven. Every age and country eharacterjzed by living and growing piety is also marked by a zeal for the diffusion of the woriof life. As in the natural world, in that p riod of the year when growth and life begin to teem over the earth, the sun begins to rise higher and to shed wider and warm er its beams of light and life i sd in the church, the time when those "that fear his name" begin to "grow," is also the time when " the sun of righteousness bctgins to arise with healing in his wings." When that glorious " golden age," of which the dreamings of earnest pagan hearts' in all ages have been the types, shall br j eak in, then also shall those who wave their palms of joy and victory from the mountain of the Lord's house which is higher than all hills, call to each other : "0 house of Ja cob, come ye, and let us walk in tike light of the Lord !" That time is not yet. Let us, mean while, go forth in the spirit of the great commission : "Teach all nations." I Let us not forget, on the way, that only ao we are in Jesus, can we either know or give the truth as it is in Him. In union with. Him, animated by His, life and spirit, ire may "lift the latch and force the wair," into those renovating mysteries of wisdom and knowledge which are in Him.

The subject of wintering milchl cows is one in which a large majority of oifr read ers are interested, for probably .riost of people who own but a single domestic ani, mal keep a cow, and those who areinot thus limited generally include more or less of these faithful creatures among their stock. And the mulch cow is worthy of this dis tinction: She produces one of ..he most wholesome and nutritious articles of food which we possess—one always in demand, and which there is no means of suplplying.— Good cows always command a high price, for they pay a good profit. But this profi. , it depends largely on the attentionjthey re ceive from their owners—whether 'they are so fed and cared for that they_ are thrifty, healthy, and yield largely' of mil at all seasons of the year. It is poor economy to winter cos upon dry 'food alone. They need something more succulent and nutritious. A I full flow of milk requires a generous supply of the right kind of fodder. Carrots, beets, pars nips, or turnips, in addition to hay and an occasional feed of meal or shorts- 1 a judic ious use of hay, roots and meal—will keep the animals healthy and in goody flow of milk even in winter. In Engla:nd milch cows are fed principally on turnips and coarse fodder, and are stabled thr ugh the winter. They have,a slight feed of straw or hay in the morning, noon and vening, with an occasional supply of good straw to their mangers. Their stables are i pt clean blit well littered,and are also well ventila ted, avoiding as far as may be currents of air; from which cattle will take cold as wel' as human beings. The proper v4ntilation of stables, both for horses and cops is too often neglected. 'But all hive not and cannot pr cure, the proper supply of roots.. The dro th of the past season injured materially o entirely cut off the root crop in many pa3its of the country. In this else hay and 6. tl grains must . be used, .and these prepared answer very well the dei pose. Good, Wel/- . cured hay is being despised, even by the most aristo cratic of the Fill Pail breed, though if first passed through a good cutting machine, it will be more readily and more economically consumed. Give cows what hay they will •fnlly dispose of, and a peck or so per day of bran, shorts, 'or provender, wet to a pro per consistence, and seasoned with a little salt, and they will continue in milk almost ! as long and give nearly as much as when I supplied with roots. Oats and • barley, or oats and corn, ground together, form a good mixture or provender for this purpose. If Corn meal alone is used, it should be mix-' ed with cat straw or hay, and slightly moistened—but a large quantity, of this grain has a tendency - to dry off the milk.— It is better adapted to fattening than milk- j making purposes. Both potatoes and ap ples are excellent food for cows, but cio not produce as rioh milk as either beets or car rots. These roots are probably among the best foods which can be - provided—to be used in connection with other kind of fod der. No single food will succeed as well as a proper variety. The thrift and health of all kinds of stock requires a supply of water, either frequently and statedly, or always within their reach. It should be brought into the barn yard, that cattle need not be compel led to wander off to a distant 'stream or pond through the storm and cold. Such journey they will rfot • undertake unless quite thirsty, when, were the water within their reach, they would drink much more frequently, but less at at time, not injuring themselves by abstinence at one time and an over supply at another. Their comfort in this respect as well as in shelter and cleanliness,is the best econ .omy, as an animal *ell cared for and kept warm and clean, requires less food to keep it in thrifty condition. The best manage ment is generally the cheapest in the end, and is always the most satisfactory to the thorough going farmer. We shall be glad if these hints call out from such any proveinent or modification of the course w have indicated, drawn from a wider expe rienoe than our own.--Rural N. Yorker COULDN'T BE OUTDONE.—KendaII, of the Picayune, relates the following, which occurred in his presence at Baden, in Ger many : "At this juncture we were joined by'an English party, when the subject matter brought under discussion was bathing. "I take a cold sponge bath every morn ing when at home," said John Bull. "So do I," retorted the Yankee. "Winter and summer," continued the Englishman. "My system exactly," 'responded the Yankee. "Is your weather and water cold'?" pe riod John Bull. "Right chilly," continued Brother Jon athan. "flow 'cold?" inquired John "So cold that the water freezes as I pour it down my back, and rattles upon the floor in the shape of hail!" responded the Yan kee; with the same cunning twinkle of the eye. "Were you in the next room to me in America," he continued, "and could hear me as I am taking my sponge bath of a cold winter's morning; you would think I was pouring dry beans down my back !" The Englisman shrugged his shoulders as with a chill, and marvelled. An Old Author quaintly remarks : Avoid argument with ladies.
