Every eye was rivccel npon Mr. Dcecher as he
took his seat In front of the sea ol faces. But
those who came to hear the scandal case referred

which flowed from the preacher's lips, lie looked
fresh and v gorons and apparently not much
weighed down by the course of surrounding
events, and in this cunnectlou it may not be In
cppoitune to mention that on Tnursday next Mr.
Beecuer will have attained
HIS SIXTY-SECOND BIRTHDAY,

at his own request, be attended by any festivities

Tne pastor dwelt at considerable length opon the
saoject or man's neglect when not in need of
Goil's guhlauce to seek his aid, and analyzing ibe
words of the text showed that the prayer of
Davt 1 was not a seltisn oue, that he wish d to be

said, is soown in ma's char.t tcr. See how lie

strength gets i's expression in tne true man, ami
mere is no higher apocalypse of tied than is to

ISIC IN THE HOCTIt
At the service yesterday morning P.^v. Mr.
Brooks, the pastor oi the charch, was as-iated by
the Hev. Mr. K. arney, a colored Episcopal min
ister oi the diocese oi New Orleans, wao has come
N rtb on a nils ion to obtain money for tne Colored
Episci pal i hnrch lu that city, which U very much
in need of rand*.
Mr. Brooks took for his t?xt the passage from
Acts, vl., 9. Be said that when we sue the evils of
a substance we are oiten apt to believe nothing
can be tomi In it. It 13 the same in morality, and
we dislike a man who is shr.uking only less than
we utsiue one who Is always pnsning himself for
ward, determined to make himself prominent and
notlc d by everybody. Paul certainly never laih-d
lor want of boldness, and yet never pat himself
fortn wnere his efforts w?re not needea to the ex
tent of injuring his work among the nation*. It
la uot that le larked sell-esteem, bnt with the
conceited man it Is a fferent and more noti eabio.
St. ram wished that ai. men might be as ho wa. ;
but this was not conceit. We ail prolcss to have
some influence among our fellow men. We have,
a- it were, little armies wmch each Of ns control
la different directions. But how would it appear
if we did not lead our men where we wanted them
to go r l.ea ten must always go where tlu-y
want ibn r fcdlOWtra to go. it was In this sense
that he wished all mea were like himself, lie did
not a-k others to go wnere he would not go him
self. rais gave bltnaright to a-* all? nriatiane
to do as fae did. This makes our woric
practical. I hate no doubt tho world
would be better if we were alw??s willing
to do what we want others to do. Good and bud
men can make others like themselves. But It is
Just as d %eiy to improve the bad man. Faney the
effect of his asking others to i.o as he did. V\ ou J
it noi turn bis thou.bia to tne evil of wnrtt lis was
iiolng? Won d it not cause a cnauge of heart? It
It trood also for f ttheri and mothers a Bo will
"1 want my children to do a- 1 do." It males
them really **k themselves li tsey are doing right.
It cau-es a rtooot among them whether their
principle of a,wars senuing tneir children to
chureh ana Minaay ? t ool waeu they do not go
themselves Is the right one.

sr. Kearney nade a abort address on the sub
ject of his mi stun. He said that eoloicd Episco
palians ni New Orleans were in urgent need of
? uinethtng to rescue them iruut tno darkness or
superstition. Tber nad no adequate meant nt

Church, wairn tVy woaid sooner follow tnango
into the worship of other sects which did not
appeal so powerfully to their fancy. It wa. a
matter of urgent want and should be immediately
attended to. The rner-ttd gentleman thought

it ne did not he sbonid begin to despair. This wti

The Fifth Avenu* Colleglato lleformed church,
corner of Twenty-ninth street and Fifth avenue,
was only fairly attended yesterday morning. the
advent of genial w?ather doubtless having a good
deal to do with the thinning out of the congrega
tion. Alter the usual preliminary exercises or
singing and prajer Itev. Dr. ormlston, before
commencing Ula tlscourse, announced that, con.
trary to the usual custom with most churches,
service* would "be held In this church every Sab
ba*h throughout tie entire summer." 'rue subject
of the sermon was m reality the paramount Dm
portance of the weltare of the soul, the text being
taken from the twelfth chapter of the Gospel ac
cording to KU Luke, thirty first verse?"But
rather seek ye the kingdom of God and all these
things shall bo added unto you." Dr. Ormlston
Bald that tue point of his remarks would hinge
upon the one word "rather" la the text.
The wLolo chapter was a grand sermon, by
one of the greatest of ull preachers, aud
on a topic of the greatest Importance to every
Immortal soul. In it was presented the desirabil
ity and, indeed, the necessity of sincerity rather
than hypocrisy, of liberality rather than covetous
nuss, and of the superior Importance of the In
terests of the soul over tnoso of the body. Tho
differences between secular and sacred, between
spiritual aud material interests were here clearly
and dlstluctly defined us well as the dllTeronco
between tne treasure here on earth and the Treas
ures 01 neaven. That both of these treasures may
lie secured we do not ueuy. Tue treasures of the
present Die are
VEKY QOOD IN THEIR PLACE,
and It Is not incompatible with their accutnula
tiou i hat we may also gather t0 our souls spiritual
eurtchment. A tutu may devote Ins whole life to
the storing up of worldly goods or to the attorn
ment oi moral excellence. The accumulation of
earthly treasures of any kind is in a mini's life a
dominant for e. Equally so it Is in toe other case
a great power, ruling over the souls of men
and lifting them far above ths grovelling
passions of the earth. When we speak
of the things Divisible we do not
always mean things m the future, l.ove and
purity, laitn, hope and charily ure invisible, but
? tney are present with us 111 this me, and L trunk
I God for It. We speak of these things as between
i the heavenly and the earthly. The ono tends to
| spiritual illumination and elevation; the oioer
darkens the intellect, debases the sdections and
1 lowers the man. Tne supremacy oi the spiritual
is per cct.v clear and tue wants or the soul are
i always paramount to every other interest. All
1 things w mem God has made are right ami good Ju
{ their place. The earth aud sky, the birds ol tho
air and the flsh la the sea?tn snort,all things that
| are ubove or beneath; out God made mnu Hi IDs
| own ima&e and made mm to rule. He gave him
| power to rule over all these things and cons;i
tutod lus spiritual nature the chlej force on earth.
f(JU MAt HOB IT Of ITS TITLES,
yon may trample under foot its proud prernga
I lives, but the soul 01 man w ill atlil teai n for some
thing high-r than the earth and tilings earthy.
.Vow, it Is the leal centre, whether we see it or
not. All oar greatness is derived irons this spiritual
nature aud ail things converge to It. Blind as
we may bo not to see ir, all ol the interests of
the lamily, of soctety, of the Church and
of the State are snnordiunto to the
interests of the sonl. God, In tnis divine wltdoin
aud love and mercy, Intended it should oe so. it
Is so, too, in alt institutions, all law s and all agen
cies, The most important question, therefore,
which it is possible to propound to any human
agency Is, What sort of a human soul does it
fashion? if that agency tends to puruv or glorify
a s.nvle soul then it has Its value accordingly; but
D It does oot then it is a disgrace to man and a
dishonor to God. What will a man give in ex
change for bis sou:? it Benin* horrible to think of
a deliberate bargaining or bartering away of tho
precious nature which has been purchased by
Christ's mood, out how munr, alas 1 overlook, in
ineir greed lor gam,their thirst for lame or power,
that the time la f?st approaching wrien they mu-t
reader to God an account tor tne things wtucn are
Con's. Their whole lives are planned and fash
ioned as though tney had no higher relations than
those they enjoy at present. Dr. ormlston ron
rluoed by an impressive appeal to hlg congrega
tion not to longer neglect the attainment of tl at
Divine help and grace which would so oeitntnly
insure their sums' eternal sa.vattoa.

is iroatsd the same as every one else under hi
charge. He Win excellent health and appeared
to be qtitte happy ana Cheerful. W.-rlen Fox
stated that he could aive no idea as to when tho
prisoner would be r*l< asod, as ho had receive
no om lal ora- r as jret which d.rectc i him to ret
him free.
