RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
The late commencement at the Theologi
cal-Seminary at Andover, Massachusetts,
was an occasion of much interest. Forty
young men graduate& In connection with
these exercises, the Alumni heldtheir usual
annual meeting. Instead of a special address
or sermon, 'as customary in former years,
questions were discussed that are addressing
themselves with great force to the Chrisl
tian thought of the world. We gather
some thoughts from the C 6 ngrsgationalist on
the topics diScussed. The first was upon
"Popular Amusements." Rev. Mr. Mead
protested, in an essay of great power,.
againat the idea that more 'abundant amuse
ments are necessary. Reassumed 1. Chris
tians must assert the essential wickedness of
all amusements which:are enjoyed only by
depraved taste. 2. They must caution
against'amusements which, ifinnocent pos
sibly in themselves, 'are of evil 'from their
associations and-.concomitants. 8. They
must studiously avoid denoUncing as wicked
theta Which are neither , right Or Wrong,,
while,'4th, they must take care to assert the
truth that 'needless and' excessive' devotion
to amusements, in thentielves innocent is
wrong. • Dr.:E. Beecher,'*hen the question
was thrown opeit for general discussion,
thought there existed necessity- for meeting
this question. of amusement. ; He favored
' the idea of an ideal character, until enthu
siasm is awakened._ Its 'pursuit will thus
be the highest pleasure and sensual
pleasures will be -abandoned. ' The next
topio was, "Is itTdeairable for, 'pastors
to preach more thaw one sermon on a Sun-
Jlay.'! 'An essay in the affirmative was read
_ by Rev. Mr. Itankin.in.which he brought
forward and answered the following ob
jections : 1. "The_ unity of the impression
la destroyed by two sermons:" 2.- "Two'
sermons a Sunday will kill ther minister."
3. "The people have not strength to hear
two sermons,a day and profit by them." 4.
"With one sermon there will be more and
better Bible study." Having disposed of
s" these various objections, he argued lin favor
of two sermons :1. It will secure the better.
observance of the Lord's day. 2. Morehear
ers will be accommodated. Smile cannot
attend if there is only ene sermon. 3. It is
the only way of maintaining our denomina
tional position. Other churches will be
, open and we shall gradually lose our con
. gregations. 4. Two sermons a day are es
...rNsential to preserve the pre - eminene.e•of the
New Englandpulpit. Rev. Mr. Barbour then
read an essay in favor of one sermon on Sun
.' day, arguing :1. In order to give proper time
for pastoral duties he should be spared the
•; second sermon. The making of one is a full
week's work. 2. It is due also to the peo
ple. They need something good. They
have not time to hear and digest more than
one: 3. The truth itself demands bat one
discourse of a Sunday. It will prove more
effective if compacted and sharpened by a
week's labor on each sermon, than if two
- verbose and emasculated discourses are
.preached.
A correspondent of the Liberal Christian
giving an accour tof his trip Wein to New
England, in passing through New Jersey, .
utters a. doleful - complaint of the state of
religion "down in Jersey." He represents
the land wholly given over to idolatry, be
cause - not a single Unitarian': Church or
minister is to be found between Philadel- -
phis and New York, and but one or two
feeble Universalist e,enie.rs. He thinks a _
terrible weight. of superstition rests upon
the land; the old bitter metiPhisics of
,Princeton oppresses the heart; blunts the
conscience, or provokes the contempt of the
people. The New York Christian Advo
cate suggests that the Unitarians should
support one:home missionary. in New jen

the space of an hour and a half.
14 The Richmond Diipatch represents the
I ministry of the Northern
,Methodist
Church as no better than horse thieves or
• bounty jumpers, and that this is the verdict
- I
of nine-tenths of the people of Virginia.
"The people," it says 7 " cordially detest
the whole concern—Bishops, preachers and
horse stealers, (if this class does not include
the other classes). Yet these Radical parsons
force themselies upon an unwilling people
••• f orpolitical2purposes, and _not only steal
the livery of the court of heaven to serve
the devil in, but would, if they coulB, steal .

sending missionaries to this benighted land
than the foregoing. No wonderpoor,blight..

while a long list of aaditional 'applicants

The Proteetant Churchman requests its
correspondents to refrain from using the
phrase "the Church," as it is a "part of the
numerous, progeny of High Church Pope
ry." The editors desire that "Evangelical
men will cease to nse It in their writings,'.'.
and use instead "our Church," or e'the
Episcopal Church."
That notorious character Henry Clay ,
Dean hes written a book upon the "Crimes
of the War„' The Baltimore Christian
Advocate (Southern Methodist) gives it three
columns of laudation. But that Advocate
eschews politics! t
Twenty-five new churches will be com
menced or completed this year in Chicago,
:
at a cost of a million of dollars. The De
troit Tribune says: "We know of no place
on the continent that needs them more."
To, which the Christian Advocate retorts,
"Chicago has the grace to feel the need of
them. Her rapid immigration warrants the
need and the supply."
The corner stone of the Chapel of the Di
vinity School of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the Diocese of . Massachusetts,
was laid in Cambridge, with impressive cer
emonies by Bishop Eastburn, ' recently.
The building will be the gift of 'Robert,
Mason,:Eaq., of Boston. It' will be of the
Gothic order of arclitecture, cruciform in
shape, and with tower, spire, and east and
west porches. The capacity of the building
tgill reach nearly five hundred sittings.
A new Baptist Church, composed of col
ored persons, was recently organized in the
usual manner, in Adrian,l kichigan. It is
to be known as the "Second Baptist Church
or Adrian."
-
It is noteworthy, the universal regret ex
pressed by religious journals of the differ
ent denoininations, at the death of the ven
erable "Apostle of Temperance," Rev. Dr.
John Marsh, recently deceased. The Chris.
tiara Adiocate, of New York, thinks few
men have • been more respected or more
widely known throughout the country than
Dr. Marsh. Enthusiastic in his mission,
catholic in spirit, welcoming any laborer in
the great field, and readily seizing upon any
new phase of the temperance reformation,
his name will remain inseparably Connect
ed with the history of the cause in all fature
time. r
Tan SPaztrsu FEVER, which now prevails
so fatally among the cattle brought on to
the north frail Texas, it is asserted, was ob
served fourteen years ago. :In the spring
and summer of 1854, when Texas cattle
were first brought into Illinois, it Is stated
resembling
a disease broke out among the droves yellow fever in the human race, ,
and proved so contagious that all along the
track where they traveled the farmers lost
a great portion of their stock in a few days.
So serious'was the damage that the people
of Southwestern Missouri hstld meetings and
took measures to forcibly prevent the pass-
ing of any more Texas cattle through the
country.. It is not stated when or how this
particular epidenuc of 1854 disappeared, but
the circumstances attending it have created
a•general impression at the West that the
existing disease is also imported from Texas.

THE Indian troubles in Western Kansas
are becoming terribly serious. They threat
en to exterminate the settletnents on all the
'rivers and creeks in that region. Women
and children are fleeing to the towns for
