ispon the %taming eat ati a friendiy'svarning to
awake. reflection. Dull,' cold, heartless, in:
deed, must be the man who listens to the dirge
of the old year without thoughts; alike of the
past and future. Reader, you are not such a'
one; so lot us sit down and think awhile, ere
yet a few hours of the old year are left us.
E festoon hundred and fllty-nine—has It been
a, year of joy or sorrow to you? Have' the
bright hopes you indulged in at Its birth cul
minated in happiness of mind, health of body,
and prosperity of estate ! If so, you have rea
son to mourn his decadence, and perhaps trona-
Isle teat his successor should ho more chary of
these worldli blessings ; but if you have de
peeved thuitaliaye.no fear, as sickness and ad
versity call iolid tio bath which can disturb
your serenity of mind, and trust in the'future.
On the contrary, have the_bright hopes with
which you welcomed the advent of "Fifty
nine," gradually faded away ? Have sorrow
and disappointment dogged your footsteps
throughout his career 1 Has gaunt poverty
dossed your path? If so, you will witness
hie tHeesislutlon with gloomy satisfaction—trust
, bug that bright (lays aro yet In store for you
, when the now year comes. But, pause, re
fleet awhile—have you deserved the blessings
you invoked at the birth of the closing year 7
Have you done your duty to your follow-man
and to your God? Will your deeds bear his
and their inspection, and your heart your
own 1 If se, be of good cheer—brood not
over your sorrows and disappointments; re
gard them only as kind and gentle chasten-
Ings, sent by Him who knows all thiega s to
wean you from, the world, and draw you still
Flour to Himself.. Hope on, then, for Hope,
Without whose cheering smile life would be
valueless and eternity a void, beckons you for
ward to the New Yearl3 christening with
beaming glances.
But will your deeds of the past year chine
not before your fellow-men ? Dare you not
reflect upon theim yourself in the silent hours
of the night, when conscience, the great aven
ger, brings them its panoramic array before
you ? Have you forgotten who has spared
you still another year ? ; If so, how dare you
hope that the conduit one will bring you blears

ere they peas away; for it may not, perhaps, be
given you to witness tho close of the year on

wings over your weary heart, and soothe your
troubled spirit to met.
" War tips the hells so merrily!"
Another year is born; another volume added
to the mystic chronicles ante past, and a new
ono opened by the recording angel who, with
pen of fire, stands ready to inscribe, on yet
spotless pages, the annals of the future. It's
New Year's Morn, and wo'rejoico. Why 7 Is
it , because we are weary of the old one, and
are glad to look upon the smiling baby face of
'his successor ) Perhaps we have reason—per t
haps not. We rejoice, swim merry-betimes,
this Neiv Year's morning. hi it because we
!have grown a year older 1 Ilut have we grown
la year wiser ? We rejoice. Why, again? Is
It becatise we are a year nearer the grave, I( that
bourne whence "—all theories and philoso
phies to the contrary—" no traveller has" yet
" returned " to solve the ono groat mystic
problem—Death 7 We rejoice, some for one
reason, some another; sense good, some bad:
no matter, the serious and the thoughtless alike
hell With joy the birth of the New Year. Let's
be merry, aye, right merry, and wish all whom
we esteem und love "A Happy Now Year."
Let us fulfil the custom of our country, (but
too often abused,) and with sinecriiy aro our
guide, run from !souse Eh house with the
tidings of the New Year's birth, and wishing
to ono and all that it may be a happy/ono.
True, to souse, our cheerful salutation may
seem a mockery.; for, insincere themselves,
they may doubt our sincerity; they may bo
right; there may be treachery in the grasp,
falsehood In the eye, and a he on the lips;
and there trill be all these with many who ut
ter the vain words of "A Happy New Year."
To others, again, it will be a mockery to
wish them "A Happy Now Year," for love
and peace are essential to true happiness, and
I they love not their fellow-men, else would
they not crush them beneath their heel, and
despitefully use them for their own base and
, selfish Purposes, whilst peace reigns not
, within their hearts. Such may smile when
we wish them « A Happy New Year," bust they
'feel the mockery of the hackneyed phrase.
Wo " speak daggers, tho' we uco none."
' ro A Happy- New Year !" Whilst we go
about wishing it to friends and acquaintances,
let us remember that there are those about us
whose day-dream of "A Happy New Year"
has long since fled, and who have none left
now even to wisli it them—where silent misery
and squalid wretchedness reign supreme;
nllO9O HUM of happiness is now but small, for
it is comprised in " Bread and warmth."
Shall we ;lens it them 7 No ; let ue listen to
" The Plea of the Peon" to the appeal of
the widows and orphans, and the faint cry of
the infant, (hut little older, perhaps, than this
new-born Year,) who is pressed to its inothere
shivering broast, and seta's in vain its little
New-Year's happiness in warmth and suste
nance, whirls, it not given with timely hand,
it May not live to ask again. Let ma then,
ere expecting that the wish of " A Happy
Nevi }"ear" is realised to ourselves, endeavor
t o impart rat least brief happiness to others;
and in doing so wo dual reap our reward. Let
us remember_ th'e poor, and we thrill be re
membered of Him who rcwiir4eth openly the
good deeds that are'donci in isorct,
It's New Year's Day, and 011 r gaiety may he
1 dinuned by the reflection that some whom we
greeted on its last recurrence have passed
!from the earths, and their joyful response to
our cheerful greeting will be heard by us no
more—for them there will he hut Olin Ot)ter New
year's Pay—shall we not wish, and hope with
all our hearts, that it may be ingoca a happy
one 1 Others too, uslesse haunts we grasped,
are tar, fur away, and In this world stay never
Gross mur path, or meet our gnats Reale, and in
thought, only can we wish them a happy New
year. Others again have perhaps, in On: baser
that has passed, forfeited our confidencs, and
broken our trust--though n e cannot in since.
city seek them and take the prodisred hand as
of yore, we can still in thought truly wish
them a Happy New Year, in the hope that
It's New Year's Morn—but before we de
part from our homes let us retire to our
chamber, 14 commune with ourselves and be
still." Aro we, too, going forth with
(t treachery in our grasp, falsehood in our eye,
and a lie on our lips," to utter hollow compli
ments void of sincerity? If so, better re
main where we are, and struggle to erase the
plague•spots from our hearts, in place of heap
ing up still more deceit. Sternly lot us ex--
online out selves before passing others in re
view. What have been our thoughts and
clods during the past year? The monitor
within our hearts, whose still small Telco we
try In vain to stifle, will bring them one by
one before our Mental visions will they bear
the light
Mayo we done unto others as we would they
should do unto us ? Have we to the best of
our ability thlfilled all our duties to our fellow
reen„been charitable alike in thought and deed
towards them, nor in stir greed of gold and
selfishness -taken advantage of their need?
Have we'lent a helping hand to, the struggling,
and assisted the weak? Have we fought last
year's "battle of life" as true soldiers of right,
and-not might, and do we stand acquitted to
ourselveall knowingly haying, done any roan
Virrongt - If so, it ia,lndeed, well mittens f
we can bo Joyous this gew Year's - morning,
and when we go forth there will bo no freache
ryin,our firm and friendly grasp, no falsehood
in our gleaming eye, and no lie upon our
smiling lips, when we utter the Now Year's
greeting. Reader;thus may it' be with you ;
but remember the teachings of Aim who spoke
as man never spoke, and whose words were
words of light and love. Yon are about to
take your gift to the altar of friendship.
scßememberest thou that thy brother bath
aught against thee 1" If so, ig leave there
thy gilt before the altar, and go thy way ; first
be reconciled to thy brother, and then come
and offer thy gift."
Our, homily is ended. The knell of the
closing year Is still sounding In our ear, and
as we listen to it, in the same spirit of kind
noes and good -will we have endeavored to in
culcate, we wish to all who road it—“ A

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
Interesting Lecture on Church History.
Dr TUII FBV. ITO/JAB U. MARTIN, BICTOR OP Till
On Wednesday evening last Nev. Thomas 31.
Martin delivered an interesting Mature in the
church of which ho is rector (Trinity, Episeopal—
likto Dr. Coleman's—Catharine street, above Se
cond) upon the condition of the Church at and pre
vious to the assembling of the Council of Nice. lie
stated in opening that it had been his purpose to
give, an account of the " Council" itself, but ma
ture- deliberation had induced him to devote an
evening or two In the history of the Church pre
paratory to this important , event. No one, tie
thoeght, could look out over the historic interval
which' had elapsed since the birth of Christ with
out being struck with the wondrous details of the
panorama,. The poor commencement; the wee
mittens of the early Church, and the peculiar re
sults of its thousand contacts, all cowbined to at
test the Divine origin of the Chastise 'Religion.
The ma* portion of the eveniug's lecture was
devoted to the part performed by Constantine, as
the first Christian Emperor of Rome, in the great
drama of the history of the Church. The time had
evidently arrived, said the speaker, when it be
clime, the interest of Constantine to embrace the
'Christian Ikith, though muoh was added to show
Itetk No atop of 'the Emperor was not entirely ds•
feeld eflitigher motive'. The fatuous phenomenon
;or thi Mating otos" which bad appeared in the
' , lfoun-day sky to Constantine., held by some to bare,
been m 44011010, was commented upon Al a speak
litlva' theme, tattier then absolute fact. That a
huilinous appearance tad been teen, bearing some
resenableutse to a area cross, was not incredible,
as similar phenomena Were ester new toccanionally
ebterved in the rays of the noonday "an, bet that
the Greek inscription upon It, "Ily Mi., Con.
quer" as was related by fineable', the Bishop of
Ctesares, was literally true, was more difficult to
believe, and was probably attributable to the ex
cited state of the be,holder's mind, owing to the
circumstances in which he was placed. Assuming
the period of this occurrence to have been at the
awful crisis in the destiny of COnstantine, when
before the walls of Rome, there could have been no
occasion more favorable to producing upon his
high-wrought Imagination a religious awe which
would transform any extraordinary appearance in
the heavens into a sign of the prevailing Deity of
Christ. This was especially probeble when taken
in connection with the religious aspect of affairs at
that period.
The Edict of Milan was next referred to, A. D.
3t3, as having for Its object the Imperial decree of
universal religious toleration. Such a decree,
while It did not specify any particular faith, could
evidentlyanly have been intended by Constantine
for the benefit of Christians, as all other religions
were already tolerated. The state of political affairs
at that time ores here minutely described. These
were thon,two seats of the Emperor, an Eastere:and
a Western, the thrmer at Constantinople, the latter
at Rome, both being, under similar circumstances,
equal in authority. Sometimes, however, their
strength was net equally divided, when It happened
that the conqueror took all, as was the case with
Constantine who under the Christian banner of hie
legions assumed universal dominion over the em
pire.
The fact of this Imperial patron of Christianity
net having submitted to the ordinance of baptism
until brought upon his death-bed, was introduced
with this explanatory reason : Constantine con
ceived the idea that the real intent and efficacy of
Christian baptism was to wash away forever all
the sins of the person receiving it t that he bad
previously committed, and for this reason ho had
deferred receiving the ordinance until the latest
moment, in order that there might be no accumu
lation of sins to account for thereafter.
Much was said towards the close of the lecture
to attest the sincerity of Constantine's profession
of Christianity. In the first place, he had been
for many years a professing Christian. Ile bad
inscribed the Cross upon his banners. Even Gib
bon, sneering Infidel as be was, believed, or at
least affected to believe, that Constantine was sin
care in his profession. It bad been urged against
him that, having In the Edict of Milan tolerated
all religions, he had thereby given his assent to
Pagan worship. This, said the speaker, was an
unjust criticism, as such religious toleration on the
part of the Emperor bad but shown his wisdom.
Our own country emulated the wisdom of this
policy. That the law-aiding genius of the
Christian religion had shown Constantine that It
was his policy to introduce it more widely into his
empire was admitted, nor were his ambitious and
obstinate characteristics denied.
Tho gradual development of Church got ernment,
and the ultimate uolon of church and State, were
neat considered, the latter having been effectually
consummated when the Emperor became the head
of the Church, oven ex Queen Victoria Is now the
head of the Church in England. To show the rapid
increase of the Church utter the Edict of It
was stated that in the year 400, leas than a century
afterwards, the empire numbered, in the Eastern
division, ono thousand bishops, end eight hundred

opinion as to his qualities as a preaoher from mere

Ile was afterward* received at the City Ilan by
Mayor Tiemann and a Committee of the Common
Council of the city. In reply to the address of the
Mayor he said : •
stir. Mayo, and Gentlemen of the Common
Cowin! and Felloto•Citizent. Ido not mean
to yield to the impulses of feeling on this occasion,
although I can scarcely conceive what could be
more flattering to me than this generous reeeptioe
in the metropolis of my native country and under
the auspices of the constituted authorities of the
city. Nevertheless, lam sure that any seeming
indifference to this cordial welcome ,would argue
me guilty, not merely of caprice In regard to my
fellow-eitizens, bat even of injustice to the divine
goodness which permits me, alter a long absence,
again to enter the otrolee of true patriots, of affec
tionate kindred and life-trled friends. [Applause.]
Inquiries have been addressed to me on all sides and
by all parties. I hope that those who listen to me
are aware that I must be impatient to reach once
more, and es soon as possible, my yet distant fire
side ; and therefore I am aura TOO will be content
to receive very brief answers. at least on the
present occasion, to those kind lequiriee. I
have, Mr. Mayor, met with no accident by
land or by water; with no 1189lOut hindrance
in my way; have enjoyed good health in
every season and In every clime. I have
met no unkindness anywhere, but, en the con
trary, the respect everywhere entertained for my
country has procured for me among all classes and

remember with gratitude so long as I shall live.

ciety in European E tides with what existed there
twenty•live years ago, when I bad the ;ermine to
visit the Eastern continent. T think that I sae
safely say that all the nations, every ration on that
continent, Is more pro emus now than It bas been
heretofore, and is making decided progress in ma
terial and moral improvement, yet at the same
time it is most manifest that the institutions of
government existing there, which either are
ancient oe were founded and constructed upon
ancient principle are not adapted .to the
exigencies and sentiments of the present day, anti
therefore It is that every country in Europe—the
whole of Europe—seems to be at this moment ba
lancing between the desire for benefialed change,
and the fear of dangerous innovation. Our own
system, constructed later and ander better auspices,
seems to afford tons—seems tote adapted to all the
changes of national life, and to leave us, therefore.
happily free alike from the need, and from the fear
of organic. change It mast always be diffloult to
determine how far we can lend encouragement to
those who seek to reform the institutions of other
countries, even with the hope of benefit to them ;
but, Mr. Mayer anti fellow-citisens, this, at least,
we can always do—we can endeavor to conduct oar
internal affairs, as well as our foreign relations,
with truth, candor, and justice and moderation.
and so commend our better system of government
to the adoption of nations, by proving that that
system Is founded in public virtue, and that we are
IIA a nation at unity with itself. white it reeks only
by peaceful and lawful means to promote the pn...3-
