?THE THANKSGIVING FEAST. PLEASURE NOT DAMPENED BT THE RAIN. CIIAttllY ll|l?M.N*?l*tt THROIOII TBAXT CnAX.VFL8~ TMK CIMRCIDB AND ") UK ATRK**. Notwithstanding thc determination of every (rood cl1l Brn to make yeatonlsy a day of uninterrupted Thank** ?rlvlng, pmhably few were aldo tn supprea* aeomplalnt at the weather clerk's trick In pmvldlng a raw wind mid k drlz-ling rain for the National holiday. Coit*ollnc them? selves with the thought that lt mich!

Ttio chfirehes were well attended, every Uiliut eon*tiden*d. and in some the services wore of imus ual Inlewmt. The pn-aclie-.-* generally succeeded In rous? ing il.cir .*ongnMt*iti')n(? to a lively sense o! their Mwraam paal und I.li asl uss to come, health, wealth, and prosper tty botli private and National. Tile b.isiiietis part of the town was practically deserted. but the uptown street, were thronged wiib cairlsecs and eon pei cm-ryiiig thi'il- oct upunta to call on aeqiialiifancee er visit sonic of tbe nutnenm* places of amusement or tho eharitable Institution*). The parks and avon,kw. general? ly so gay with driving turnouts on a tine holiday, were al? most deserted. Hut the b *d weather weighed more hisat ily tin the sports and all oui.ioor procee-lons nnd a?ii-t>i attona. Mauy of tile athletic gamea went not given and those that were bud a small numberof spectators. But the Fourth Wurd fiiutn-ti, s were uni to bediscouraged. In open catie, on foot and on horseback they marched along tho Bowery, clad in gaudy frippery; some in repulsive diasruiscs. others in thc garb of the barn-storm lug counts and mtirlicrs of variety theatre*. The min ploughed fur? rows down their palni.d anti corked faces, the cold red di-.ui.i their uot.es nod made tbeir Ups bluebill all seemed intern* ly happy in their own conceits and industriously a lorn xe,! in keeping their spirits up by pouring spirit* down. The (n-opnvsslhle small boy of America wa* every? where. The clements had no terror ior hun and tho mud only added additional charm to the sport nf tripping up boys smaller than himself. Having partaken of a fivo and generous dinner, he arrayed himself in his Miter's cast-off clothing, adding tn thia a hi( leo a. false fa e nnd nu eai*-Hi<iitting tin born, and bis cup of haupiue-ss wa* full.

Tho Church ls a spiritual orgaukatiou. Its prov? ince is Aimilf with the soul Our duty ls to Christian? ize, ant to -1. duo. Tho public und tho uewtpapcra seem to think every eongngatfaa a machine which may be I; on any material evil. But lt ls an crro Beonsvlew, Individually Christians should do that, nnd th.-y aunt do it thrungli denunciation of wrong methods, through practising tho good theorise they preach, sud where these methods fall, throngh legislation. Put lt ls absurdM hs.k to tho Church as an institution directly concerned with things other than splrltial. with work Other than thal of bringing souls to our l/.rd Jesus Christ, wherever they may be fmml aud In whatever coud.tloti of worldly wa dth or poverty. " Moreover, nil Ibis hue and cry about so much destitu? tion nnd misery and the unscrupulous greed of employers ls groundless. I am convinced that more than one-half? yes. fully three.tpiarTers?of the pauperism of whloh you heard so much In the lalo campaign exists solely n the ifet. The picture drawn of Now- York's mi-erv is ov er colored and lt* inspiration ls In the "tlstort ci liaagla attona ol the oeorge ramifies.

Ye?. I repeat lt: The trouble ls Intemperance. I hate been watching "or thirty tise j..ir-, and In nil my luve-tligutloti*! among the poor I never yet found a family borun dows '.y poverty that did uot owe its fall to rum. That's it, and there's where tho remedy must be applied. We must make thu Legislatures act j the churches can't do any more than tint ure doing. Make the Legislatures shut up tho rum holes, m that father* and mothers trill have income's, and there will not be so many stories of sewlng-glrla working for start allon wages, and thou being defrauded by teetora awnei a i don't eoneede Hut the evil u as widespread ,u th.- hu*- and cry of aaaaattoa makes lt; nor ls the destitu? tion tts grant, nor ure the wrongs of labor so many. But, ev. ii .supiKieing all these things were so. Ute Church I Ls not going lo lump up uud call out to some rascally em* player, ' litre, you ; stop that !' for we have BS authority lo slap In between tho employer and his help and alter or Interpret the contract agreed to by them botweeu them lelvea.
