LOCAL IXTtlLlGESCE.
Rev. Ma. SherrarD, last Sabbath
morning preached frox the 19th vet-as
of the vii chap, of the Bjok of Joshua.
The verse reads :
And Joslma said nnto Achan. Mr son,
give, I prsr the, glory to the Lord Cod, of
Itml, . nd nuke conteasion onto him ; and
tell me now what tfiott hast dous; bid it
not trow ine.
The pleasant and interesting introduc
tory to the sermon brought the mi id to
dwell on Aehan, he, who bad "trespass,
ed in the accursed thing," and thereby
unconsciously to himself became a not
ed historical Character of the liible,
thorough whom, by example God taught
his children the euormity of the indul
gence of secret sin.
The secret sin of Achan was the
Theme, and was considered by the rev.
erened gentleman nnder the foliowiog
beads.
1st. "The his tor j of the sin," It was
elaborately traced out from the fall of
Jericho, to the fall of the arm of the
Jews before the city of Ai. The con.
tternatioo that was produced by the de
feat on the Israelites, and the humilia
tion that overtook that people when
tbey realised that it all bad its S"Uice
in some secret sin amongst themselves
was most vividly dwelt on.
itod. "The nature of the sin." This
grand diversion was sub. divided and
considered.
1st. The sin was a transgression of the
Covenant. Covenant bad been made
with God, Aohan bad violated them for
el', for gain, for gold. What was
promised to the Master's kingdom be
proposed to use among men. U bo here j
are employing in the service of men
what has been covenanted with, aud con- J
secratrd to God ? I
i
'2ai The sin was a seer it sin. The 1
sin that had humiliated the jews so
soon alter tbey bad crossed Jordan and
overoome the chief city of the land of
Cannan, was not a sin that was extend,
ed through the body of the whole peo
ple or any considerable portiou thereof.
It was of so secret a character, that it
required a self examination to fiud it.
Miuute as it was, being couGued to the
acts and koowledge of one man, it was
of sufficient magnitude to Overcome the
plans of Joshua, defeat an army, and
cause the death of thirty-six men. Se.
rret sius may ruin a chu.ch. Uave
you a secret sin !
SJ. It was an aggravated sin. Af
ter a strong delineation of the aggra.
rated ohaiacter of the sin, the revefu
ed gentleman, deduced, that in modern
times the aggravated sios of church
people do result in injury to the church.
Aggravate sins prevent or destroy
the spirituality of the church.
At this point Mr. Shenard stated that
Le would further consider the sermon in
ihe evening. The cougregation was
dismissed.
After reassembling in the evening for
service, Rev. Mr. Sherrard resumed
from the text announced at the opening
of the morning service, aud after a
brief review of divisions of the sermon
as presented in the morning, took np
the third grand division as follows :
Bd. "The guilt of Achatl," which
was sub-divided as follows : It was, 1st.
Covetousness ; it was thatguiltthat led
Achan to sie. The lust of the eye,j
the lust of the flesh, the pride of
lite lead men to covetousness.
Covetousness is idolatry of a bigb de
gree. It exist among men to-day in
christian larris It is found in the
church. Where it exists it causes
blight and ruin. Have we secret cov
ctousues ?
2nd. It was an act of dishonesty.
Covetousness inevitably leads to dis
honesty, and secret dishonesty leads to
open shame. Acban's covetousness led
bim to steal. Dishonesty does not aloue
consist in stealing another's property.
To rob a fellowman of his character is
a sin. The reverend gentlemen enum
erated a long list of robberies outside of
the taking of material goods,or property.
There are many such secret robberies
in tliis day and generation. They will
all be found out. People sometimes
practice these crimes and scarcely know
it, self examination will reveal this sin,
as the self-examination of each Je in
Joshua's time revealed the secret of
Acban's. Let cs look to it that Acban's
tate be not ours.
3d. It was an act of deception.
Achsn deceived bis fellowmen, but be
could not deceive God. There is a
treat deal of deception with regard to
religion. How much is there among
ns One deceiving man in Israel did
much barm. One such man in the
cbureh may do great injury to the
church on earth, but the deceiver soon
er or later comes to an awful end as did
Aohsn.
The fourth and last division was de
livered under the following analysis, :
4th. The consequences of Acban's
secret sin."
1st. It brought trouble upon the
whole nation. The troubles of the
Jew as a consequense of the sin of one
man was recounted with marked effect.
Secret sin will biiog trouble on the
church of God. Have we secret sin !
Are we bringing trouble on the church
2nd. It brought destruction upon
the authif of the sin. It brought ter.
rible dishonor and death to him. Be
ware! Secret sics bring dishonor and
terrible death to all who iudulge in
them
3d. It brought rnin upon the family
of Achan. It brought dishonor and
death opon his family. Secret sin now
will bring diehonor. ruin, snd death to
the Family, to Society, to the Church
H .1 many here have secret sins ?

A Habrisburo lady, while engaged
in thi pursuit of ber domestic duties,
encountered a mouse in the flour barrel.
Now, most ladies, under similar circutu
stanees, would have utter a few femi
nine shrieks and then sought safety in
the garret. But this one possessed
mre than the ordinary degree of feiui
niue courage. She summoned the hired
man nd told him to get the shot-gun,
call 'he hull-dog and station himself
. , . n -ni distance. Then she
c:i.i. ': v up stairs and coui
iieiird i j iioi n the flour barrel vig
orously with a pole Presently the
iu. use uiadd its appearance and started
acroM the floor. The dog at once went
iu pursuit. The man bred and the dog
dropped dead. The lady fainted and
fell dowu stairs, and the hired man,
thinking that she was killed, and fear
ing that he would be arrested for mur
der, disappeared, and has not been seen
since. The mouse escaped. 27a.
If you bave modernly disposed
boy you will understan-J without trou
ble bow well the one described by the
Detroit Frit Prut in (ho following local
meets his case i
A Case avenue father procured an
outfit of oil paints and brushes for bis
eight year old son the other day, the
lad having developed a taleut for draw
ing. Little was seen' of fhs boy for
two or three days, and then he took his
lather and mother by the band, and led
them into the parlor, and triumphantly
pointed to the proofs of hia artistic
skill. The gilt paper on the walls
formed a fine ground-work for bim, and
he bad painted a horse over one door, a
lion over another, a bird ovei the third,
aud at intervals along the walls he bad
brought out fighting dog, shtps, Cfe
cuginea, Indians in full dress, aud bears
chaaibg boys. He had put a new bor
der on the bay window cnrtalns, striped
the legs of the piano, and bad proceed
ed to touch up and improve certain
chrouios and oil paintings banging on
the walls. Father and mother gaSed
aronnd, and the yoang artist anxiously
waited for them to pat bim on the head,
and say tbey were proud of such a son
They didn't pat him not very much.
The father placed the son's ear between
his thumb and finger, and led him
through several rooms to the woodshed,
and what followed may be inferred from
a remark dropped by the boy and over
beard by a pedestrian : Oh ! father !
let up on me ! and I'll neier be an
artist any more."
