Sermon by Rev. Dr. Wilmcr--Dclivered
at the United States Hotel, Atlantic
City, on Sunday Morning, Aug. 11.
On Sunday morning last, by special re
quest, the Eev. J. P. B. Wilmer, D. 1)., (rec
tor of St. Mark’s Protestant Episcopal Church,
Locust street, above Sixteenth,) delivered a
sermon, at the United States Hotel, Atlantic
City, on these words of Scripture:
11 But wisdom is justified of her children."
[Matt, xi, 19.
The ladies’ parlor answered the temporary
purpose of a chapel. The attendance was
large, and the sermon was regarded by all who
heard it as a very happy extempore effort. The
purpose of the discourse was to meet briefly
the charges made against professing Chris
tians by the unbelieving, and to show that
while church members are not iu all cases ex
empt from error, and, In some cases, even
gross inconsistency, they nevertheless num
ber among them invariably the beet men in all
the walks of public or private life.
Various arguments, the speaker said, had
been used to disprove the elevating power of
the Gospel npon those who accept it as the
Word of God and their rule of life. Skeptics
had scrutinized t e history of the Cbnrch
from its earliest ages, in order to establish
charges against it, and the errors and flaws
in the principles and practices of modern reli
gions bodies had been songht out with avidity
with the same captious design. Precisely in
this spirit the Great Teacher and Exemplar of
Christianity had been met and persecuted in
the days of bis incarnation. Christ had come
into the world to preach the Gospel. Bat his
mission was falsified, and his practices ma
ligned. The Jews, in striking accord with
the same spirit of calumny now abroad among
the despisers ot God and of hiß children, had
met the Saviour of men, and his forerunner,
with words of censure, to wit: “ John came
neither eating nor drinking, and they say: He
hath a devil ; the Son of Man came eating
and drinking, and they say : Behold ! a man
gluttonous, and a wine-bibber, a friend of publi
cans and sinners.”
It was in connection with these words that
Christ, rolling back the charge of his de
famers, had added the words of the text—
« But wisdom is justified of her children.”
Dr. Wilmer Baid that the true Christian had
no disposition to disguise his infirmities. Ha
knew himself to be wholly indebted to Christ
for all that he is and has. and he would, there
fore, not willingly detract from the work and
merits of his Saviour by arrogating any in
herent good to himself. Nevertheless, when
the Chrißtian witnessed efforts made oh the
part of nngodly men to bring reproach npon
the religion of the true and living God, he
had a right to be aroused, and in a proper way
to repel and refute the slanders. Of all tbe
arguments in favor of the efficacy of the
Christian religion, he held that there were
none more powerful than that which we had
in the example of Christian men.
In taking up the argument of his discourse
succinctly, he remarked, first, that the world
expected too much of Christians; for men
born with a corrupt nature, their association
with it necessarily involved more or less im
perfection even in the most exemplary. Then,
again, it ought to be borne in mind that the
major part of a Christian’s virtues were of
necessity hid from public view, whilst his
faults were always trumpeted forth to the world
and magnified. His earnest desires to God,
in the secrecy of the closet, to be more and
more conformed to his Maker’s image and
likeness, were unseen; and the same was true
of many of bis deeds ot charity and love in
his walk through life.
A universal state of purity in the Church,
was, therefore, not to be expected. Nor
would be deny that within the pale of the
Chnrch there conld be found, in addition to
the occasional erring, many flagrant examples
of delusion and hypocrisy. The good and the
bad were combined everywhere, in the Cburch
as well SB elsewhere; just as in the fields the
weeds lifted their noxious heads among the
cultivated fruits ot the earth. But instead of
this disproving the truth of revelation, or
throwing discredit upon the Gospel, it afforded
one ot its strongest confirmations. The
«Kingdom of Heaven” (the visible Church)
was compared to a net, gathering within it tbe
good and the bad, and the parable of the
« wheat and the tares ” afforded a similar il
lustration.
Having thus referred to the false accusations
made against professing Christians, the speak
er proposed next to inqnire How far the truth
of Christianity was illustrated m the life of
Christians ? if it should be fonnd that tbe
Christian religion produced no improvement
in the moral life of these professing it, then
he would admit that the Bible was a fable.
But he challenged the production ot any stan
dard of morals comparable to tnnt contained
in the Bible. |So obviously was the Bible the
only true standard of morals, that even its
enemies were indebted to its pages for the
light by which they songht to condemn it! No
man ever had—no man ever could improve
upon tke morality of tbe Bible, tor it was the
offspring ot Infinite Wisdom. The biographi
cal character of the Sacred Volume had ap
parently been given to it in order to prove,
by examples, the doctrines it contained.
Upon the whole, he appealed to history to
prove that the preponderance of virtue had
always been on the side of the Cburch; not
that all professing Christians had been good
men, but that all the best men who had lived
since the dawn ot the Christian era had been
Ch-istians he held to be an incontrovertible
fact. In this category were at once numbered
the bravest warriors, the noblest patriots, and
tbe most distinguisbed men of science. As
tbe ancient Temple at Jerusalem had been
reared of the choicest stones, so the Spiritnal
temple which succeeded it—the Church ot the
living God—contained within its majestic
framework tbe choicest sonls of all nations
and ages. Thiß fact was, he said, illustrated
by universal experience. :In every communi
ty it would be found that the most humble,
the most modest, and the beßt man in it was a
follower ot the Lerd Jesus, and many of these
bad come into tbe Cbnrch through a lile ot sin
and the most abandoned habits, showing the
living power of Christianity upon the believing
heart. So true was this that it was universally
expected that when a bad man became a re
ligiouß man, he would be a reformed man—
that his former hannts »f wickedness would be
exchanged for the sanctuary and the society
of the good. Thus it waß that “ wisdom was
justified of her children ” in the life and con
duct of her devotees.
But again: H the effect of Christianity
upon the heart was merely to reform the
moral character its claims would be uDsns
tained. The religion of Christ went much
deeper than this. Unbelieving men might,
and often did, lead exemplary moral lives, bat
it was fer the troe followers of Jesus alone to
crucify the world to himself, and thus, to the
public eye, to sacrifice the world that now is
to that which is to come. This was actually
being done in thousands of instances, wherein
men, possessing capacities fitting them for the
highest positions, gave themselves up to a life
of comparative obsenrity, in order, by patient
and retired study, to shed new light npon the
sacred page by its critical exposition.
Turning to the present status of Christianity,
the speaker was glad that its professors conld
no longer be called a deluded people. The
wisdom and learning of tbe world were in
in fact decidedly on the side of Christianity.
Its dark passages had been explained; its ap
parent contradictions reconciled, and its Di
vine authorship vindicated beyond the possi
bility of respectable gainsay. All this at
tested what his text declared, that wisdom is
Indeed justified of her children.
But the argument did not close here. It
was not merely for the gratification of self, in
its highest and most exalted sense, that the
followers of Jesns had abandoned the world.
Fro eminently had they attested their unself
ish love of their Master’s cause in their zeal
to carry to the benighted of other lands tbe
eternal blessings ot the Gospel. In doing this
they were oft times required to bury teem
selves for years from the view of civilization.
There was to day scarcely a corner of the
earth where these faithful heralds of the Cross
had not penetrated. It was to Christianity,
also, that the world was as much indebted for
all tile benevolent institntions that bless it as
it was for the cbnrches with their high walls
and spires pointing heavenward, and music
rolling upon every gale.
In view of all this, he would ask, was this
the people that was to be despised and reviled
for their schisms and their worldly-mindedness?
No ! Like the inspired Balaam, when asked to
pronounce a onrse upon the people of God, be
would answer this request in terms of blessiDg
“ How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy
tabernacles, O Israel!” “ How Bhall I curse
whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I
dety whom the Lord hath not defied V’ On
the contrary, «Blessed is he that blesseth
thee, and cursed is he that enraeth thee.”
it Let me die the death ot the righteous, and
let my last end be like his! ”
The testimony of Christians in tee hour of
death, the speaker also regarded as a potent
vindication of the divinity and power ot their
religion. There, at least, hypocrisy was un
masked. And yet, who had ever heard of a
single instance in which a Christian, in his
dying honr, had regretted his faith in Christ,
or wished to expunge from the record ot his
life one act of piety ? No one had ever heard
of such a case; no one ever would. The very
idea of it was preposterous.—Tbe contrast be
tween the death- bed scenes of believers and
nobelievers, drawn by the speaker, was vivid
and powerful.
In conclusion, Dr. Wilmer addressed a few
kind words of admonition to lukewarm profes
sors, and those who were indifferent npon the
subject oi religion, and who were, perhaps,
despising the precept and example of pious
parents. To the latter, e»pec<aliy, his appeal
was earnest and pathetic. To the hardened
son, who had been favored with tbe counsels
of a Christian mother, now departed, he called
to take his stand by her grave, and, as he re
membered her prayers and example, and tri
umphant death, declare, if he could, that there
■was no troth or beauty in the religion the pro
fessed.
Dr. Wilmor is a fine-looking man, some
what on the wintry-Bide of life’s meridian, is
evidently a man of culture, and is much be
loved by his congregation. HU sermon, of
which the foregoing is a meagre synopsis,
appreciated by persons of all denominations
in attendance, both for the olevatiDg character
ol its matter and the pleasing manner in which
it was delivered.

The report of the seizure of Mr. Nelson, on a
charge of treason to the Confederate traitors, is
oonfirmed by Tennessee papers. The Nashville

American says that forbearanoe has ceased to be
a virtue in dealing with such men: 9
“ They h-ve courted the penalties of treason
with a Heaven-defying hand, whioh has exoited a

burst out, and will never case until our State is
freed from their loathsome and dangerous presenoe,
or until they suffer the penalties of their crimes,

“Mr. Nelson, and all like him, would consult
their own safety by a graceful acquiescence in the

dignation of a people, now thoroughly aroused,
will consign them to the merited fate of those who

TALK ON ’CHANQS.
The New Orleans Crescent ot the sth says:
It was very pluvious on the flags yesterday. Tho
corners were deserted; not a corporal's squad to
be met with, even at Col. Baxter or Ogden’s cor
ners. We have been favored with rather too much
of the element for comfort within the past three
days. In some sections of the country heavy
showers of rain may be of advantage. bat the bot
tom or low lands have had a auffioienoy for the
present.
The inquiry was made, “when will the next bat
tle come iff or take place ?” There wore some re
marks that tbe information given by tbe Black
Kopablionn papers in New York that Commodore
Btringham, with tbe big fleet oi 350 guns and 8 500
noon, intended to attack Norfolk is a deception,
intended as a blind ; that the tl_ct and armament
are intended for the Gulf of Mexico, say New Or
leans With the present fleet in the Gulf—sailors
and marines—the Linoolnites will be able to oon
oentrate a foroe of ten thousand men not very far
from New Orleans before the present month ex
pircs. It will be well enough for our authorities
to take heed. Mississippi Sound requires half a
damn more gunboats at onoe. Weekc ago wo sug
gested the fitting cut of sehooners as gunboats,
with Bteame;s accompanying. Tho steamers Ore
gan and Arrow are all that are yei os the lakes.
Two more gunboats are wanted to be permanently
located at the east end tf tho Bigolets—old hulks,
if strong, would answer, converted into floating
batteries, with two or more gnns,.andono or mere
sieam-tnge at hand.
home private intelligence, in the way of letters,
comes through from New York now and then.
There are a great many pretended Southerners
now in all the Northern States. Perhaps, South
erners here and Black Republicans there. We are
not aware that the Sonth will be benefited in the
least by the return hither of the .numerous 00-ope.
rators of hundreds of onr oommeroial firms. In
faet, we do not understand how su many of our so
oalled citizens remain at the North, hear and wit

the South and its dearest interests In Ootober
and November it will be inoumbent on the com
mantling general of this military department to in
terdict a part of the many thousands who will be
returning to our oity. On the other hand, it Is well
known that pseudo residents have left our city
within tho past six weeks who have given informa
tion to tho vilest BUok Republican prints in New
York and Boston, of what our authorities were
doing The movements going on at the Bhlpyards
over the river, the casiings at onr foundries, have
all been accurately described.
PROM TBXAS.
A correspondent of the New Orleans Crescent,
writing from Brownsville, Texas, July 15th, says:
We are still in the Same uncertainty as to our
own position in tha war that we were three months
ago. Are we to have a blockading fleet on this
ocaßt? Arc we to be invaded ? The mixed oha
rioter of our papulation makes these important in
qulnes to ue, for there is every probability that an
invading foroe would meet with considerable aid
*ad comfort In this seouoa Thzro arc a great
many weol dyed Yankees here, who have not, be
cause they oannot, forget or forego the Union
They made fortunes in the old oonoern, and to
make money, with (hem, was the highest objeot of
ambition Under toe new order of things these
old business connections have to be broken up, and
they will probably have to give plane to merohants
and people of Southern birth.
The trade, whioh was carried on with Boston
and Now York houses, will break down; first, be
oause most of the Boston and New York bouses will
go to the wall; and, secondly, beoause they oannot
o mpete with New Orleans merohants. Men will
etrive to avert their peounlary ruin, and, as tha
Yankees hereabouts constantly olaim that the
United States oannot be dissolved, they are just
about green enough to lend Old Abe their strength
and muscle to keep It alive. Therefore, I say that,
if this point is ever atiaoked, the invading foroe
will meet with prompt and efficient encouragement
from many residents of tho frontier, and some of
them new holding offioo nnder Texas and the Con
federate Government.
Wo are rather nervous just now at the reported
departure from New York of Billy Wilson’s
Zouaves, lest they may oome down here In faet,
it is dir6otly asserted that a foroe from Fort
Piokons is ioovits bly bound to land at Brazos
Santiago, for the purpose o( oarrying out Mr. Lin
coln’* projoots. We havo seized tha forts and
TUblic property, and still hold them We have a
large quantity of arms, ammunition, and other
available tfi ,ots, whioh we oaptured from the
lalo United Statea forces Are wo to be allowed
10 hold and possess these things without some
effort being made to “ disport. ,r us and take tho
things again ?
More than that. Greeley has said that the Oon
federate States must be hemmed in, and that the
Rio Grande must be held, beoause iu that way only
was slavery to be environed If Greeley has sny
Idea of iho polioy of L ncoln. or has any ir.fluenoe
at Washington, will he net m>.k., some effort to
have his favori'o policy carried out by the autho
rities at Washington? More than that, a letter
has been received in thia oity from a lady in
Washington, who is the wife ot an offioer who was
onos stationed on this frontier, and she says that
preparations were u<-der way to make a demon
aeration co the Rio Drasde. I do not pat moth
faith in all them reports, but, then, Igo on the
line of probabilities when I assort that It 1b pro
bable, beoause it is possible, that a force may ron
down here from Fort Pickens, with one or two
thousand men In it. and before it oould be met in

about half a dozen meu, with guns, proceeded to

that there must be some cause for the alarm We
are told by one of the gentlemen composing
the party, that, on Wednesday afternoon, they
saw tiie animal near the top of the mountain, but
oould not get a shot at It as the dogs refused to
soent It. The description, as near as no oould as
certain, was, that the beast—whatever it Is—is
about four feet long, of a dirty, yellowish color,
and very fleet. We give the above for what it is
worth. It is said that a panther escaped somo
