It would be a very fortunate accident if soma people should lose tbolr tempers and never Dnd tbem again. Every man it said lo have three characters?the one be professes to have, the one ha himself thinks he bos sud lbs one bs really has. The last is not always equal to tne other two. Some of the papers say that Gensral Newton blew up Hell Gate and tne Fourth Commandment si tho samo time. It is a orlae to sit In the next pew to n man for five gears aod never speak lo mm. It scats nothing to nod I good morning to a neighbor. Christians wiy not be Introduced to each other in heaven, and If they should happen 10 shake hands berors they gtt them no harm would result.

Or. Talmage began hie aermon awhile ago by Bay In jt, "Brethren, I propooe to talk to you Ihla morning about a man who had a hole In bia head." The people thought at Ural that bo waa apeaklng of himaolf, but It turned out to be only Goliath. Moody and Sankcy have laid out a hard wlnter'a work.

If tbey succeed the labors of Hercules will have lost their renown borne clergyman baa been Intemperate enough to de clare that when one goes to the Centennial he is to be escnsed II hestpaclsret instead of ibe water which no one has dared to look at through a microscope.

Blade's slate lias followed Flint's miraculous teapot into tho oblivion of infamy. "Yon see," said Sladc, "the slate has been cleaned on both slde?," "Assuredly," replied Lankratar, with the affability of a gentleman. "Well, now I will place II under the table for a minute, and than the apirtta wtll write. There! They are about to begin." But bofore tbey began Lankcster said, *'t would Ilk* to see tbat slate once more." "Not for worlds," replied Blade, "because yon know the conattiods would be broken and some thing terrible migbt happen " Lankestor took bold of the slate, pulled It Irom its hiding place, and, be hold, before the aplrlta had touched the pencil it whs filled with writing. It le a funuy world, and people like to bo humbugged at a guinoa apiece. Spiritual lain makes revelations, but here la a revelation ab#tt Spiritualism which will not be quite satisfactory to those whose only evidences of Christianity are afforded by a tipping lablo and a mumbling medium. Most of ihe religious papers this week continue to make relereoce to what tbey call Mr. Hnxley'a failure. Pubflo expectation waa cover quite so high aa wheu It was hinted In Ittorary circles that the conceit would bo taken out of tho human race alter the explosion of Mr. Huxley'a dynamite.' JNot a man who had any respect for the coal regions or the cretaceous system ventured to express an opinion that ho waa made by the Lord, bocause tbe learned Professor could show, and moro than that, had come across the ocean for the very pur pose of allowing, that every ouo'a ancestor was a quudrupeu. Tbe fit si lecture passed off with tho remark, "Well, ho'a only wading np now, but bo wtll fire his Swamp Angel next time." The s*cond lecture was dollvered, and every one loll that mailers wcro getting pretty hot. Something hung Ore, but no one could tell what. Howover, tho third Iccturo would certafnly burst liko an earthquake under our leet, and In tbe clolda of dust above the rain we should seo Moses retiring Into the background SDd tho manly form of Iluxtoy taking his place. But, alaa! the third lecture constatodof the remark by the potent acieutiat that II that long lookod-for "fifth toe" could bo louml, then man would step down and out; "but," he con tinued, "It has not yet been fouud, and I don't really know when it will." The next morning Professor Huxley look passage lor Europe; but Mosoi csmo back lo his old position aud still insists that ho and not John Milton wroie Ihe book of Genesis. Gt'orgo W. Blunt, when speaking of the explosion of Ilell Gate on Sunday, gave the pleasing information that "he does cot belong to tbe school who believe in scolutng a cat for killing a rat on the Sabbath," where upon tho New York Observer asks, with charming iialveti, "Is thero any such school?" However this quarrel between the Blunt critic and the Prtino minis ter may end, we have this satlstaction, at least, that if Hell Gate was the rat In the story aud General Newtou the cat the arrangements ol tho latter were purr-tout.

The absurdity and wickedness ol church quarrels has been demonstrated over and over again, and yet fresh demonstrations are given every year. The Episcopal church at .New Roenelle, N.

HVEI'SC'R. The Kev. Dr. Iliiebsch preached to a largo congrega tion yesterday In tbo synagogue, In Lexington avonuo and Fifly-Qub street. Ills text was Fsalins, cxlx., 90? ??1 have seen an end ot all perfection; but tby com mandment is oxceeding broad." In many of bis sacred songs, said tbe Doctor, tbe sweet singer of Israel gtros utterance to bis profound lovo lor tbe sanctuary ol (tod. As tbe bart pauted after tbe water brooks so panted bis son! alter tbe living God. Ho is greatly re joined wben others say, "Let us walk to tbe house of the Lord." In tbe courts ol llis bouse tbe psalmist would love to dwell forever. Tbo pltb of his Inspired poetry is, "tlow amiable are tby tabernacles, O Lord ol hosts! my soul longetb, yea, even panietb for the courts ol tbe Lord; my heart aud my tfesb cristu out ior iho living Goal" This panting of his heart, this longing of bis coul, however, is not an Indebono, un conscious and dun sentiment, ol which be can givo no nccount to himself, wby and wberelore ho panietb and lougcth. Tbe chief musiciun was at the same time a profound thinker Heading descriptions ol tbo mar vels ol nature;earth aud heaven, land and s*a, are the objects el bis close Investigation, and what he says nboul them in bis songs shows that bo knows mom than be utter*, and it is Ibis knowledge of nature that leads biro step by step lo tbe reverent and luitbiu recognition of nature's God. Tnsro are men, nud thoy ure so numerous in these days that we may terra tbeui a class, who took upon scieuce as upon the executioner's sword, and upon laiih as tbe |ioor condemned, and ibe great work ol tbo lormor Is 10 inllict the latnl strogo upon tbe latter. When we had, n short llino ago, iho renowned and devoted expounder of the theory of evolution la our midst, this class greeted bis presence us tbo signal ol battle agnlnst religion, aud regarded bis lectures as tbo song Oi songs of scep ticism and unbelief. How far tncy are Justified in their view or whether their superficial opinion about the conflict between science and true religion Is shared by tbo genuine champions of scientific progress or not we may best learu from tbe words ot the same man whom they regard as one of tho banner bearers of modern science. The same renowned professor to whom wu listened a lew weess ago, has in one of his ! former lectures tho following remarkublo passago:? . "All human inquiry must siop s iiuewbero; ah our ' knowledge and sil our investigation cannot tako us be I yond tbe limits set by the Unite and resulcted charac I tor ol our faculties, or DKSTROY Till XXDLESS fSK.XOWX, I which accompanies like its shadow the endless proces sion oi phenomena, ao lor as i can venture to oiler an opin.on on such a matter, the purpose o; cur being In existence, tho highest object that human beings can sst belore themselves, is not the pursuit ol nuy such chimera as the aunibtlnlton of tbo unknown, but It is simply tbe unwearied endeavor to romnvo its boundaries a little lurtber from our little sphere of aolton." This modest acknowledgment opens the dpor to religion an 1 makes its revclatioua the precious complement of all human knowledge. The gap of tbo endless unknown can be ovorbmiped only by,i he In telligence of an Allwi.se Creator, anil the liuio sphere of human action can ho enlarged and ennobled only by tbe recognition oi a Divine law, wblch Uellnos clearly tbo purpose of our being in existence, tho highest object that bunian beings can set belore them. wlncb is, lo walk after mo Lord our God, to recognize Him as iho highest ideal of moral purity and to quench our spiritual thirst in the living waters wblch emanate from tho fountain head ol wisdom, from His Divine Word. Secular knowledge embraces Unite objects, and, though It sheds light into our souls it never can satisfy us In re gard to the endless unknown. Spiritual knowledge, however, romoves the barriers, tarnishes the soul with wings to soar hlgb above our little planet to celesi.al spheres, where she Is allowed to see Him who is tbo Endless One, nud whilo contemplating Him sho becomes imbued with Joyous sntisisctlou that slit loo is endless, being lbs image of Him who created her. This Is ibe philosophy ot our Psalmist; such are tho conclusions ho draws from what be knows about naluro "Forever, O l.ord,'' he declares, "thy wurd ia settled In heaven," he shows how God bss estab lished the enrtli and she abldelh; how all natural things continue according tc the ord.nsticn ol their Creator, for sll are His servants. Without intelligence, with out free will they necessarily ioIIow the path pre scribed lor them There, however, nr man. 1 do not tbluk that the l'salmist looked upon man as thk product or kvoi.utiok; bst It makes no difference whether bo dhl or not Man at his time was Just tbo same as Dow. eudnwed with tbe snmo faculties, sahject to the same short comings aud enjoying the same spiritual preierences. Man with bis frsc will, with his capacity of spiritual growth, with his cen trliugal inclination, wblch draws hi in from tbo pat li of salvation. Man, as lie was then and as be Is now, needed and needs more than the mechanical law hy winch the rest, oi nature is governed. He nee is a special code for his soul, or else the essential part which makes him man beoomes overshadowed and vic timised by that Inferior part which he amtrrs with the rest ol visible naiuro. "Unless thy law had bneti my delight," said Dswd, "I should long siuce have been lost iii my affliction. " With God's law there Is for our soul light, Joy and everlasting growth; without It, darkness, dreariness and dwindling down to a niero shadow. Necessary as the knrwlodgc of the things aroundnsls.il cannnt compensate for, tho kuowlodgo ol that which works In us and He who rules ahovs us. Man's soul with lis Intimate relation to God Is a specially; and, thorelore, psrioci as the laws of nature are, they do not cover tho ground ol our spiritual lilc We need a special law?we need religion. "1 have seen an end to all perfection, but thy commandment m exceedingly broad." Lei the house ol God he what it is destined lo bo, the place o' spiritual enlightenment; let the devoteo come there with tho earnest purpose to strengthen his soul by the teachings ol salvation and we shall soon oxperience the truth thai God's commandment Is for man nerfectiou without end. TIIE COURTS. The Swffny SeTfn Million Dollar and Iwrrd One Mi lion Dollar Suits. uvms 1ND THEIR CLIENTS' INSTRUCTIONS. Clearing the Criminal Calendars of Homicide Cases. Two ot tbo memorable "Ring" suite?one the *ult against I'eter B. Sweeny to recover >7,000,000 and the other the $1,000,000 euit against William M. Tweed are eel down for trial to morrow betore Judge West brook. At present It appear* to be highly problemati cal whether either suit will be brought to trial. As for Mr. Sweeny, it Is understood thai ho *MII is a sojourner IB the gay French capital, notwithstanding the an nouncement mads long sine* that ho wn both willing ?nd anxious to meet In open court the charge ol being a peculator on the ?ity treasury. For that matter, however, if thero Is to bo a trial It would probably make but little dllter ence whether ho was here to answer In propria prr toiiir or delcuded through counsel, the general pre sumption, though, being that, not having put in un uppearauoe up 10 this iimo, he does not propose to do ?o and in the result Jeopardize his possible personal liberty In tho case ol Tweed It is suggested that in view of his speedy return to this country it would bo fw u 10 t?IVo "l0 n,an'' a chauco to suggest the line ol cross-examination to be takeu oy his conn ed. The contra supposition is that lie will have more serious tnatlers to occupy his attention ou his return again within tbo jurisdiction ol our civil and criminal couris, as the indictmruts lor forgery threaten his trunslar to Sing Sing. Again, It is surmised that he may unbosom hluisolf lu a way tbat will direct tho shafts ol justico against other parties who have long been reposing in fancied aecurily tbut their participa tlon in plundering tho cllv exchequer will never bo brought to light. There is a<so the hypothesis tbat what fc. A. Woodward, tbo great "go bciwoeu " may have to say in regard to tho old Ring transactions may put an entirely new complexion on the whole case. SETTLEMENT OF SUITS. A motion was hoard yosterday before Judge Barrett, In Supreme Court, Chambors, involving ihe Important question whether a lawyor, refusing to follow a client's instructions, be* a right lo kocp the party sued lu Julj on account or non payment ol his counsel lees. The suit out or which the motion grew was brought by William 8. Slater against Thomas Ogg Shaw, President of the Boiling Miti and Vermilyea 1'aint Company. Last spring, following ihe bringing of the suit, Shaw was arrested, and, In default of $100,000 ball, commit ted to l.udlow Street Jail, Subsequently the mailer was settled botwoen Slater and Shaw. Mr. Slater's al torneys, J. II. ,t W. L. Vendergee, denied the right of the parties to settle, claiming that a charge of aoine $18,000 counsel leea was a lieu which Justified them in refusing to discontinue the action, aod alio in keeping Shaw In Jail until the settlement of their counsel lees. A motion was ac cordingly mado by Messrs. Cumpton and Root, on be hall ol Mr. Shaw, to vacate the order of arrest, based ou Ihe affidavit of William Bartlelt, Slulor's attorney in fact, showing that a settlement had been made be tween Slater aod Shaw; that Sialer desired that Shaw should be discharged front Jail, and had expressed his willingness to pay the Vandurgeea all, and more than all, lo recover under their coutraot with Slater. Tho Vandergees, in opposition to tho motion, Insisted that they bad a lien which enililod thorn to k-op r?bew In Jail. Judge Barrett decided tbat inoy had not, and forthwith vacated tho order of arrost, upon which Shaw was at once roloascd from Jail. THE FIVE POINTS MURDER.

RECEIVER APPOINTED?(J IlEAT INDIGNATION AMONG THE DEPOSITORS. Tho excitement In lloboken was very great yester day concerning the suspension ol the lloboken Home stead and Banking Association. General ludlgnutlon exists against the management of tbo concern, which Is said to have been of the most reckless and culpablo charactor. The following is a correct list ol the olllclals:?John Von Dulsburg, President; I,. Ettlng hau.s, Vice President; A.Jordan, Secretary; F. Witt, Troasurer; Chariot Splelman, Br., Trustee and Man ager; Robert Werner, <1. Falck, W. Von Uufen and F. Krb, trustuos. Last night a Hrkald reporter called upon the Frostdcnt, who mado tho following state ment. which must be taken lor what it Is worth:? "The tolul liubi lines lo depositors are, I bcttevo, from $35,000 to 140,000. The assets I estimalo at $.>0,000. They consist o! real estato In Now Jersey and $10,000 worth of imported Khlue wines. Matters have boon managed fairly, but we have had to (1gut against great dillleulties. Five years ago wo had $75,000 deposited, mid recently we had hut Itttll that sum. I my sell have deposited about $*>00. Mr. Chnrles Spielmau has man aged the whole concern, llts son in New York, who has $7,000 deposited, has put an injunction on tho bunk tnrough his counsel, not to receive or pay out moneys. The us&cli ol tho Homestead Association grow Irom $13,303 In 1870 to $37,351 In 1873. since which time no statements have been made public. Tbo Homestead Association was chartered by tho Legislature of New Jersey in February, 1800, uud subsequently its charter was amended to allow It to carry on a banking business. No state ments wero ever punlisneo. Tho shareholders of tbo Homestead Association will probably loso $22,000. You must wait till tbo receiver appoimod gives to tbo UutaLD a statement ol tbo accounts. Ills numo is Mr. Michael Samlford, ex-Prosidoni of tho Union Bank, Jersey City." Tho general Impression among tho victims of this Institution is that tho accounts of the association aro In a perfect ehaoa and that the assets are compara tively worthless. IMPROMPTU PISTOLLING.

Tbo wounded boy was taken to tbo Ninoty-nlntb Street Hospital, where his injuries were pronouuocd serious. Neary was arrested and lockod up In tbo fhirty-flrst precinct station house. ST.
