Discussion on the Late Religious Parliament The Tribune Thanked for Its Accurate Reports of the Convention Remarks of the Speak ers. The convention of (he CmgTog.i ' lional churches of Lackawanna an 1 Laatrna counties was resumed at 10 o'clock vestmduy morning at the First Welsh ('oiigrepr ition.il obaro'i, Prov ince, when tholiiv. 15. L Evans, of j Hyde Park, iicniii preside I, and tho ltov. David Jones wni elected sscre- tary pro ten. in the aonvoid'tble nb--euro or' the secretary. J) Uwynfrrn livatis, of Glan Taf, Pontypridd. South Wales; Mr. James, nnoth ir visitor re I contly arrived from Wales, au I Oym I dsr Evans, a stulent ofOberlln, view welcomed to the meeting and admitted in in hers of the convention. Dr. Joiits. of Providence, in rop rt iug tho result of his visit in ronbaution with missionary wuric in Mooslfl an I district moved a special vote of thanks 10 Daniel Price and family for ptaoltU tluir residence at his disposal for tlfir meetings, and their invariable kind ness. The vote iraa carried unani mously. Mr. Davles, of Miners, then rend in Welsh his p'ip:?r npm "The tiflaenoeol the RdUtoas Pir!inmnt o' Chicago upon Christianity." The parliament wis held in the Columbia Hull of th great exposition when thirty nationalities were repis.)nte,l and tho commodious building wis thronged at the various sitting al though accommodation was provided for about 4.000 persons. DtSCRIPTION of THB PARLIAMENT, Tlien followed a vn'y interesti'ig de scription of the various raota and na tionalities represented nt the parlia ment, followed by'crlttoixmi onlled out of the following periodicals unfavora ble to the Objects and results of the parliament, viz: The Halifax Critic, the Living Church, Christian Newspaper, Episco pal RjeorJer, and in favor of the move ment tho speaker read extracts from the Congregationalist, the Evangelist, Chicago Standard, Jewish Messenger, the Buffalo Chnrch Advertiser, the Ln theran Evangelist end the Union Sig nal After carefully considering the quoi tion mid taking an Rflirtnativff view of the matter and convinced that the par liament would bo conducive of good risulte, the spiaker said it must be con fees id that :t ..- impossible us yet to indicate any positive results arising from the movement, but to his mind there were many points, which he minutely explained, which in tims wero certain to produce the results de sired by its promoter.-'. The argument briefly was that the bringing together of repreanttitiues of thirty nations and the great opportunity of com paring th principles and phases or tiieir different beliefs must of neces sity lead to an assimilation of opinion npon Home points in common between th m and tno fact of their meeting to gether must tend to an increase of brotherly love which was the banis of Christianity. Tho speaker made rof crence to the fact that the proceedings weie opened dally by the payinj of the Lord's prayer, which all joined, if not in language in spirit. Mr. Duvies concluded with a hymn wbich exactly interpreted the appeal of nis arguments. The discussion was continued by D.inisl J. Evuns, wio spoke at length in support of the pap r and urgued that it must be productive of gr.-ut gool, as it elorated all men upon the samo platform and this was according to the commission given by Christ. bit. JONES' liEMAIiKS. Dr. Jonea, of Providence, followed in an excellent spoech upon various phases of the movement and more particular ly upon tho unique character of the parliament in its universality as the only one of the kind iu the history of tho world. Rev. D. P. Jones, of the Tabernacle, Hyde Park, in a pithy speech referred to the lessons to all professing Chris turns taught by the history of the pur Jiameut, viz. not to bs conservative in their opinious and to be mure tolerent to all men. Mr. Jenkins, of Pardons, drew at tention to s-jveral iustancas in Mj lmniiuedlsm and other creeds where there were examples in rules of living that would put professing Christians to shame and the parliament, he hoped, would prove beneficial in this respect. The Kev. Isaac Thomas, of Rend ham. and Thomas J. Lawis, of Provi dence, continned tho discussion, fo! lowod by ltov. Mr. (Jeorge, of Pitistoa, who expressed a hope thatall Christian churches wonld make an effort to carry out the lessons gleaned from the reli gious parliament, (iwyfryn Evans, of South Wales, having made a few re marks, the discussion closod by the Rev. David Jones, of Hyde Park, who, iu a spirited address, referred to the udverse criticism which hod come al most entirely from the Episcopalian press, nnd showed tho narrow and in tolerant spirit which mamfostsd itself iu this country in the same manner ns shown by the Episcopal press iu tho old country, but one great lesson observed w. that of tolerance to all people and to bo a light to o;io another. It wus decided to publish tho piper as read in the "Gsnhadwr." The Revs. D. P. Jones and Isaao Thomas spoke upon the position of the "(Jenhadw'L and a general opinion was exprossed that it should bo subscribed for more freely amongst tho connection. THK AFTERNOON MEETING, The afternoon meeting was also con ducted in Welsh, when a very learned discourse was preached by the Rev. Mr. Davis (whose p'lper we h ive re ferrod to) upon Matthew xill, 59. At the conclusion of the sermon, tho ques tion of the belter observance of the Sabbath day and the nctlon of the American Sabbath union was intro dncod by the Rsv. DiVid Jones, of Hyde Park, who said that the Rsv. Peter Roberts, Olyphant, und himself had been r quested to draft the follow ing resolution, nnd to request the representative of The Tkiuu.se to in elude thessme in bis report: That we, representatives of the Welsh Congreg:itloul churches of oastorn Penn sylvania, in convention assembled at tho VVolsh Concregational church, Providence, June fl nnd 0, heartily commend the or ganized efforts of the clergy ami laity in the city of i-cninton, to enforce the ob servance of the Christian Sabbath, and of the law of 1 71H. We wish them Increased earnestness la the work and hope that the campnlgn instituted by them will not ro lax its efforts i until all unnecessary and lufumons merchandise done on the Lord's day is entimly done awav with. We a!BO urge the members of our congregations, representing over 2,000 adherents within the city limits, to uphold and contribute towards this beneflciBUt movement, which is now demuuding financial aud spiritual support. Tue Rov. David Jones, In introduc ing tho resolution, made a telling speech, in which he said it would be a disgrace to Christianity in general and to tbo various ohurehes in particular, if the battle was not o .rried on enthu siastically to a triumphaut end nnd the very commeudable objects attained, ana in this the promoters of the move ment had every claim upon the finan cial nud spiritual support of their mem bers. It was a fact thut clgur dealers and ilriiLjgints actually paid the $1 line each Monday by informing on themselves and that it showed the profits which wero made on the Lord's Day when thay appeared happy to pay the fine so readily! At first tho term "Donyism'' had beou applied with ridicule by per sons in high authority to some clergy of tho city, but when prominent people felt that they could not keep Rileuct any longer bnt oatDt out boldly and defended Mr. Deny and his associates, there tvss an evident toning down in the nonaioal ridicule und jibes. If they would only stand together Sboul der to Shoulder, the battle would tie won and that must be the result as the ever gathering force wbioh was deter mined to have the Sabbath properly ob served woul 1 noon be so powerful that its voice must bo olsAved and its de mandj acquiesced in. THE TlllllUN!-: THANKED. The Rev. 1) A. Brans, Puritan church, Providence, also dwelt npon the le' il efpSOt of th? question an 1 was followed by Dr. Jones, who expressed his thanks to TBI TtttBUNE tor its oorreot report of tno convention pro ceedings and to its representative for l is attendance to report tho proceed ings whloh had pastsd in the Welsh language. The service concluded with nn ex cellent Welsh vermon by Gwynfryu Evuti.i, South Wales, which we regret wo are nouble to produce owing to the limit of space. At the evening meeting the Rev. D. P. Jones, of Hyde Parle, preached an excellent Welsh sermon npon the ''Atonement of Christ," and prefaced his rem irks upon, Ores, the b.-st inilu encs to meet tho needs of tho people; second, personality of Christ aud his atonement; third, the value of ths doc trine to man as a sinuor. The convention proceedings through out have been of a mo3t harmonious nature, and tho largo number of dele gates from tho two counties expressed themselves as highly delighted with the Hospitality of their friends in Prov idence, and particularly of Dr. Jones, tho pastor.
