For trite sayings, odd eloquence, start

Beecher is certainly without a rival .in the

with a peculiar independence, the : rules

and celebrated : until -the Voung'imagina-,j
Lion 'Was. daziled:,with- the sticredness. - ofl
this:so-mtlled diyineidea of government ;i
.but governments, in fact, Were veiy sorry
commentaries ... on the thecines of govern- I
thentS. - The 'divine inifure of govern
ments had yet, he thought; to'be disCov
ered. Upon the simple necessity of law
bed been built up structures of !,7„overn
went so vast - and so complex, thOt it had'
'often taken ip'.the whole: 'strength of a,
nation just to - . endure its 'government ;I

that his. whole strength Might be required
to carry' his Very arthor,leaving nd powerl
for defence, for' swinging- 'the sword,. fur I
thrusting the - spear. Theprineipal busi
ness or governments; as of the wise doc
tors, was to let people tpone, , and to oblige,
them to . let each other alone. Alen were
Made to - take care - of theinSelveS.• There
could be no substitute for the.element'of.
individual preservation,. and the instinct
was just as, strong in society as in thmim
divual, I:was : doubtful, therefore - , wheth
er man had"not been as Much injured by
governments as benefitted by thein.
arehy imis an - evil, but it was not alre
woist•evil, though described as the crater.'
of a Volcano, or, a bottomless pit;. and a
nation; without, a goverment _presented a
Wretchedness only - equalled" by thaf r otn
nation' with - oae. More crimes were corn- 1
mitted - ag,ainst the peace ofsociety under
despotic 'governments by those who ad-,
ministered the laws, than by those upon'
Whom the laws were administered. - In
free' governments the criminals were -al
most all under the laws; in despotic gov
erunients they' were almost • alivays above
it. On the principle of despotic govern
ments, as administered , in Europe to-day,
every king should be a.slave;. and thoSe
who now sat in ashes should wear crowns,
if croviis should be worn: by anybody.
The air was full of.this notion of the ab
solute power of governments, and men
dragi•;ed through life' with only enough
life t,i linger in perpetual blight without,
dying. Goviuuments produced inore.ta-'
want of them had ever
done j they had heaped up difficulties in
the Way of the developetnent of that spec-!
taneous wisdom with which' God :,ad pro-,
vided - mau for his elevation: The
of the world were. generally, the world's
rubbish, and its state.snians - bip - generally
nothino but its fully. An astronomical ,
, rovernment, to help the' world" to - turn
over and revolve in its Orbit, would be no,
moreiridiculous than many. of - the govern :
merits - the, world, has now. Kings had
had great trouble with their people, but
the people bad bad- inure trouble With

'Work. is appreciated —it is honorable.
When we speak of able men succeeding
'in life, we say' they have- worked their
1 way up. -Work is dignity !-- Slaveryy - waS
It that evil which:assassinated the tueim - s-ef
living to the - free laborer. Slavery de
troved the Chr l stian idea that wen ought
.tojiOve, ono another.: But slavery taught.
1 thatllte weak sere thelawftil prey of the,
Istrong—confrary to the teachings-of the
l Saviour Then it was a burden tliat-tpg
at!variance with our:republicanism, con:
trary to out constitutinn;_ which while-we'
I honor - we violtite--for our nation : had a
light.liouSe at , ' the top -and-al dungeon-at
the bottom. - Then it festered pride—and
as men - grew rich and independent, theyi
were above their- brethren ; .and wish .to'
live alone: . So that. one class is at the top
and another at the bottom—and the.hot. i l
I tem looks up and envies the top,and the
top looks down and, despises the bottom-4,
'as if a tree were to look down and despise
its root and the earth that grew it, mit:,
,gar. . Make the .fouudation Of- a house,
drong,• and- then . the su perstructure will;
be safe, and can be made beautiful. Slave ;
curses and :blasts the bottom and at
I . last it curses and blasis the top. And
(this is the effect of-the burden of.slayery
on society. Mr. BeeCiter's remarks ou
slavery created much sensation, and elic
ited great applause, in the midst of which.
the lecturer said—" Eight years age you
would,nOt have done Se.l"—(Lau.diter ,--.
and applawie.) . .
; The third . burden of society was the
burden of War. There was a Mystery of
violence, a mystery of .hlOod, in the natu
ral history of this globe. - When •he facts
were looked fairly in, the face,,clestrutitive•
ness would be found to ht. the organized
necessity of animal life. • That destroying
should sometimes be 'interealatedfin the
experience of the iinitnal creation was not
strange. - eßutlutan mess just as fully a de
stroyer :as' his Inferiors. - A lnnane - 'lien .
would violate pod's- law---and if•it tiger
were to join the-Peace Society, he would
starve to death. - Man, however; was
double.. Ile eni•ried in hiS - Maitre. earth
and :pmt.. lle was ditine and 'animal.
In the .one dPstrtictiveness ran; 'in the
other love' was wade to be supreme; and
in the e M i dietiof life the struorle was be
tween those two' 'principles: War had
been both, thel business and :the, paStime,
of whole races; of MeM,.• Blood had - always
