""SwUrge congregation assembled in the Methodist church on Sabbath evening tJ listen to the "farewell ser mon" of liev. Sir. Sherlocirp The choir rendered a Yolnntary, the first line of which was, or is, -" Want katt Ftmuhti ai) ftarwt oa Etrtk." Rev. iir.' Bander read i chapter, which was followed by the singing cf a hymn, the first line of which waH, - "Jtl Hail th Power of Jctut fiame" which was sung with an effect that is seldom felt outside of a Mttfcodist church.' " ReT. T. J. Shcrrard delivered 'a prayer, which was followed by the singing of the bymn that begins with ' Lot tkf iLtMgrfom, Lari" At the conclusion of which Rov. Mr. Sherlock arose, and without book, or paper of notes, commenced the text from the '-Ids of the .Ipodlet, 2CM Chapter, Z'lnd verse, 'JJ now, bretheru, I eommend yos to God, and to the word of Hit graet, which U able to build you up, and la give you aa inheritance among all ikem which art tanetifitd." By the text the mind is carried into the long post, snd a'Jown its si lent, dead vistas, into Asia, to Milet us, where the Apostle addressed his brethern on the 20th of April, in the year of our Lord 53, the brethren of the church if F.phesus were there, and it was a most interesting occa- sion. When Paul addressed hirhself to his Brethren there, his subject was the church. Its organization had been a source of great solicitude to him, and i lie was constrained to great earnest ness in his excitations relative to the welfare of the church. 1 He withheld nothing in his statement to the Eldert, he enjoined upoii tiiem thai they preach repentance, he exorted them to remember and watch.' ".?!( note Brethren,' I commend you to Go, and to the word of Hi grace, which is title ii build you vp, md to give yon an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.'" The imagery of the text is grand and worthy of the apostle Paul. The church in its organization is represented as ajbuilding with Christ for a foundation. Christ is the corner-stone, and the materud of the Church are the fallen men and women. Paul calls the material ''you that were dead." God is the btiildcr of the church; God only ccti renew the church. From the long introductory which has just been briefly outlined, Mr. Sherlock announced the TH KMC to be the church. From the theme the Reverend gentleman analyzed the fiermoii. FIRST THE VISIBLE CnTBCH. The visible church must consist in such temporal or worldly things as a house ot worship, where people mjy assemble to hear the posr',l preached, and where sscr'amciits Way be" admin istered. Onrantenficn is part of this visible church. The membership is part of the visible church. Tho SU. ialK schoo"! is part of the visible church. Man has much to do with this part of the chdrcb, but God moves upon the minds, of men to build aud to or 'o itce. SECOXD THE SPIRITCAL OR INVISIBLE CirCRCH. There may bo pleasures connected with the1 duties in tho organization and work of the temporal churcli, but the higher delights are found in the spiritual or inrisiUe chuich. God builds up the true believer and the spiritual church is the true believers paradise. There is a spiritual pro gression that esceeds the delights of temporal possession, or intellectual progression. J. emporal organization is good, knowledge is good, but no possession, and no knowledge is like the knowledge of God. Christian friends, get the knowledge, "the joy of God." At this point in the sermon Mr. Sherlock deduced three principles as springing from God the builder of the spiritual church in the minds and hearts of men. 1st. God builtls up the believers rAiTH. 2nd. God builds up the believer's love. Zrd. God builds up the believer's hope. And now, brethren, I commend you to God to be built tip1 ; I com mand you to faith, love, hope. These will give you the inheritance spoken of by the Apostle in the text The church is an inheritance. Christ is an inheritance. It is the future inheritance that Paul speaks of. If you could unveil the future, how you would long to enter upon the possession of that inheritance. I am glad that there is 6uch an inher itance awaiting the faithful believer." The martyrs are all there, our kin folks who have preceded as in the future world are all there, and joy unspeakable Will be ours when we get there. I commend and commit you "to God and thi word cf His grace. Men sometimes, these days talk of the traditions Of the church. I speak no such words. I seak not of tra ditions. I speak of God and the word of His grace, to these I commend yon. At the conclusion of the sermon proper, the Reverend gentleman spoke of the time that he lived ammig this people, of how he "came iri and went out before them,' of his friend ly relations with the people fcf the place generally, of how Qod had re- moved two of his family to the future world, of his friendly relations find intercourse with the Presbyterian and Lutheran churches, and while thus speaking of the church relationship he turned warmly to Rev. Mr. Sher- r&rd; who b'ecupied a Seat bo the pul pit, and grasped hiin by the hand Mr. Sherrard rising to hi3 feet-&hd showered the most blessed blessings on him and his people. The whole occasion was one of deep interest. Ed. . Business for Ladies'. Our attention has been called to a new article for the nse of ladies, thi invention of which has conferred an everlasting bless ing upon, every lady. We refer to the Qunen City skirt snspenddrs for supporting ladies' skirts, the most d.5irarile and b'ciie- li'cial article ever invented for the relief of women, many ol whom have sufier! year of miserable health caused solely by carry, ing the weight i.'f t numb or skirts, com pletely drafgilg thein down. Somethiug to support ladles' clothing is absolutely necessary. These suspenders are recom tf'etv'ed ff oir leading pliysicians to a'l la die and young girls. Every lady should have them. They are sold only through la dy agens. A splendid opportunity is offer ed to some reliable lady canvasser of this county 16 seenre the agency for a pleasant and profitable biisiuess.
