PAULS’ CHURCH, StNDAY, JUNE 22, 1890. “ But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful ' Justs, which drown men In destruction and perdi- tion.. For the love of money is the root of all evil; which while Bome coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."—l Tim. |5:9,10. This passage of Scripture is seldom preached from, and yet it is one. of vital importance, for there are thousands who are entrapped by this share of the tempter, and have all the bitter experience referred to In the text,; r . There is .nothing in this text condemna- tory of diligence in buslnpss or the proper use of money; the reference 1 Is to those who are determined,to he rich at all haz- • ards, and in this determination hbri.esty is often overlooked. Money, which God has ; given ns: a blessing to man,., is * idolized, and so turned into a curse. “ Inducements, seduce the will at every turn to get gain at the price of godliness. These induce- ments in an age of trade and successful venturevare stupendous.' ‘Men are tempted with a million or » half million' Which can be secretly pocketed; and,:even,If known, the contempt for their dishonesty can be braved for such a price; or it can be dazzled away by the splendid display of the successful knave.” : But; at last such fall. Into the snare or trap which the devil set for them, being so temptingly baited that everything else was forgotten, and now destruction and perdition is the result. This love of money, a measure of whicli is in every heart, unless it is superseded by the love of . God, will become the root : of all evil. It leads men to resort to1 van- . ous plans to'secure money without earning it, and to secure it speedily. For this rea- ‘ son the gambling table has so many attrac- tions. The Church, knowing these dan- ; gers prohibits her members from ploying at games of chance, Christian prudence dictates that we should shun everything that might lead ’us into such dangers; arid , for this reason card playing should he avoided. Many engage in this for amuse- ment or pastime, and often by both, sexes > . of persons of culture and: good moral standing; and;, the question is. asked, “ Where is. the harm?” Let worldly peb- pie answer, this .question, for themselves; Christians should ask ,UWhere .is the good $7 Let us apply these tests: Will it please my. heavenly Father V ' Will it honor my .SaVr iour ? Will- It- make me more Christlike ? Will it help me. inf proving, to the:world that I am a sincere Christian? Will It produce in me a: greater love for whatever belongs to the'Christian life ? Every one of these questions has a Scriptural basis, ahd are proper to ask of ourselves. :. 1 We object to card playing because it has .a bad reputation, and we are commanded to “abstain 'from all appearance of evil.1’ It is a worldly amusement, and we are not to be conformed to this world. It is ianiil. iarizing ourselves with the acknowledged tools of the gambler, and henCe Is a dan- gerous step toward gamhiing, for the game soon becomes dull- unless . there is some- thing at stake. To give.zest to the game a prize niust he contended for, even if it be but ■ a booby prize. Of gambling .a recent writer says: “ Gambling is o t the essence of stealing. It is 'getting another’s property without equivalent. The fact that tbe loser took the chance of loosing io the hope that he might get the owner’s, property without giving him an equiv- alent, does not help the matter. The pro- cess is no better morally than if two men should agree that- whichever could pick tbe other's pocket- first and most adroitly should have his money. Instead of divid- ing, the guilt it would double it. There would then be two thieves in intent, and one' in act. The intent is the crime. Thus, in every' gambling game, of what kind soever, every participant is morally guilty of robbery—and just a3 guilty if he fails as if he succeeds.” Betting partakes the same.natur? though somewhat different' In form. This is wagering a, certain amount upon a contin- gency, 'or event, -the outcome of which may be unknown to both, or partially known to- one. ' It is sometimes done to express strong conviction upon a subject or event. It is even then to be condemned because it secures value from another without an equivalent. The greatest abuse of this is in connection with horse-'raclng. Our- last Legislature brought disgrace upon itself and upon the State, by legaliz- ing gambling' in the form of pool-selling on race tracks and making the State a beneficiary of .the evil. The bill has failed to become a law because the pressure brought to bear on the Governor was so great that, he has withheld his signature to the bill. Monmouth county, ns well as some other portions of the State, Is cursed with this evil. By this the noblest anlmul -rthe horse—given to man, is abused.and made to cater to man’s lowest vices. Racing and betting cultivate covetousness, idle- ness, hatred, fraud, deception and kindred vices. Many, young men are led astray by this ensnaring-vice v legitimate business is neglected,, and money, and character are both squandered. : . This inordinate desire for money finds expression In’ the lottery .system.. There iS/a strong tendency in human nature to try to secure large returns from small in^ vestments. Even churches have' yielded to this to their reproach, in the form of- ring cokes, grab, bags, &c., so. as to realize money .which should have beep voluntarily given' for God’s cause. . ; Lotteries are patronized more extensive* ly than we suppose,'because it can be dpne so secretly.; These trappers secure the address;of persons and send through the mail their tempting prizes. Tiie state- ment has been published that $28,000,000 are p<pured into the . treasury of a lottery whose name shall not be mentioned here, and nearly all. this vast sum comes from poof people^ for very'few "of.the. rich in- vest their, money in .this way. To show how, many are the losers, it, is stated that the chances of drawing the capital prize of §5,000 are about One in 70,OOP.• • Where a prize has been secured the trappers pub. lish ’the;same .far and wide, and so, new. victims to this wholesale robbery are se- ‘cured. •'.'ii Y/.^-yv.'v:; Jv; : The question may be asked, “ Why is it that one set bf-men are constantly seek in g to ensnare their fellows - tind secure an acV vantage over themV* The love of money, no doubt has much to do with this in the casei already named;. but in addittion to this it Is the nature of sin to bring all-.to Its own low level.; Sutah would dethrone God arid make him as bad as himself if he could. So he entered the garden of Eden •to bring man to his own lev elH o w near he succeed ed we all know." To the wicked Jews Jesus said1: Y e are of.your father j the devil, anci;the lusts of your father ye will do.” So the man Who. drinks wants others to do .the -same; A sea ’captain whipped in a most cruel manner,- a little boy because he 'refused to .drink: when offered; liquor by the. sailors.;; A young, man who was clerk;in a store took’his em-' ployer’s little son of. four years and tanght him all manner .of ylleness, all unknown to th^ parents. Here is a fulfillment of the words Of Christ The lusts of your father ye will do.tfjV Io the absence of restraining grace ;an(Vthe moulding power of Christ’s l^*in the heart, y the love; of money has became the root of innumerable evils, causing many to err from ' the faith and have pierced • themselves; through with; many .-.sorrows. in the present-’life, and plungedi; themselves; into perdition ' and" destruction. .Let us remember that,life doe s not consist in th e abund an ce o f the things we may possess, and likewise that godliness ism ore valuable than gold,;even if honestly acquired.; / '.y.itc-r; ; We haven’t much confidence in any thing a’Romish ecclesiastic says on any subjecr, and consider the follow ing rem ark s which all the papers arenow publishing as a bit of unmitigated bosh/.

OROVE AUDI* TORIUM SCNDA7 MOItNINCf, JUNE 29, 131)0, n v REV. Si; F.. UPHAM-, D. D. The text was; announced from Psalm 02:2, ■**Lead me to the.. Rock that . Is. higher .than I,” and the, circumstances under which this psalm, and many other noted passages in history and poetry, were written, were re ferred1 to. Their inspira- tion came from a sense o f -deperidance on God, and helplessness without - his aid. David was in trouble; uncertainty hung over his prospects; rebellion reigned in Judea, and fleeing as a- fugitive . to the wilderness,- he betakes himself;, to - the refuge of prayer, mFrom the ends of the earth will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed ; lead me to the rock that is'higher than I.” ; V ';' God be.thanked exclaimed .the preacher^ for these old psalms; They have been the psalter; o f; the churches through all the ages, “ speaking tubes ” for communica- tion.;between earth and:heaven. , ; V . The first thing, to. be poti'ced, in this, cry was that it is instructive,. Man is in such a condition through •trouble j fear and frequent calamities. that-he is “ over- whelmed” when he, ha3: no divine arm to lean upon. His condition since the fall has been' likened’to a temple in ruins— the temple’ of God in ruin^, but God’s temple still. Hi3. thoughts, feelings and longings have moral tendencies which in his deepest desolation lift hini upward. Reverence is /one of the faculties exist- ing Jri-the human;mind. . Man may be on an uninhabited island j but; in his personal consciousness he stands uncovered before the Almighty. . Aggasiz wa5 cite’d here as an exam pie of this pro found conviction. It has been well said man has an appetite for ^immortality:;Even .the • criminal in his cellshudders Vat the thought of anni- hilation, arid Ingersollj whose',creed is to eat, drink, lecture ' against God at a dollar a' ticket; and. dIe, once said' bj; an open grave, “ It may; be there is a meeting place beyond.” vThere .are times when, the free th inkers theories fail. ‘"-They think of God arid:heaven' because they fare nien.

On.tbis subject of answered ;prayer, there is too much cavilling; among usl v- The minister who opened this morning’s ser- .vice said Let-us:pray.*^ ' . Who believed, while his supplications were poured out,, in direct influence from a prayer tinswer- ing God ? The old 'question, “ Does God know ?• lingers still, and deadens expec- tation of immediate results. The professed agnostic parades his ne- gations, but. when. taken at his own word, .as one who knows nothing about iti gets mad directly. The good old way is “ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you,” God does henr the cry of the needy. These are old-fashioned truths, but this is; the place—this Ocean Grove, where th?y. retain their hold. ' People here accept the dcctrlue of prayer and its answer, as cause and effect. I join issue with those who say God is, but is So gfeut and high he does not care for us., Man is not the insig- nificant thing old Ceisus supposed. These hands, feet and: bbtlies 'are . not alt of out.' selves,- our;souls are' immaterial and im• mortal, and he who redeemed us by the blood of Christ surely watches over his re- deemed creature-;. .The argument Was extended and illus- tration's given to prove the divine superin-’ tendehce in! nature, with; many-signal evi deuces that; communication. is . open' be- tween the soul and its God, when all other, hope, and' help is futile .and vain. This divine: telegraphy between earth and hehveri is accessible, to ev^ry.; intelligent being. Use it here at Ocean Grove.

“ But they th a t w ill be rich fall into tem ptation a n d a snare, and into m any foolish and hurtful

' Justs, which drown m en In destruction and perdi­tion.. For th e love o f money is th e root o f a ll e v i l ; which while Bome coveted after, they have erred from the faith , and pierced themselves through w ith m any sorrows."—l Tim. |5:9,10.

This passage of Scripture is seldom preached from, and yet it is one. of vital importance, for there are thousands who are entrapped by this share of the tempter, and have all the bitter experience referred to In the text,; r .

There is .nothing in this text condemna­tory of diligence in buslnpss or the proper use of money; the reference 1 Is to those who are determined,to he rich at all haz-

• ards, and in this determination hbri.esty is often overlooked. Money, which God has

; given ns: a blessing to man,., is * idolized, and so turned into a curse. “ Inducements, seduce the will at every turn to get gain a t the price of godliness. These induce­ments in an age of trade and successful venturev are stupendous.' ‘Men are tempted with a million or » half million' Which can be secretly pocketed; and,:even,If known, the contempt for their dishonesty can be braved for such a price; or it can be dazzled away by the splendid display of the successful knave.” : But; at last such fall. Into the snare or trap which the devil set for them, being so temptingly baited that everything else was forgotten, and now destruction and perdition is the result.

This love of money, a measure of whicli is in every heart, unless it is superseded by the love of . God, will become the root

: of all evil. I t leads men to resort to1 van- . ous plans to'secure money without earning

it, and to secure it speedily. For this rea- ‘ son the gambling table has so many attrac­tions. The Church, knowing these dan-

; gers prohibits her members from ploying at games of chance, Christian prudence dictates that we should shun everything that might lead ’us into such dangers; arid

, for this reason card playing should he avoided. Many engage in this for amuse­ment or pastime, and often by both, sexes

>. of persons of culture and : good moral standing; and;, the question is. asked, “ Where is. the harm?” L et worldly peb- pie answer, this .question, for themselves; Christians should ask ,UWhere .is the good $7 Let us apply these tests: Will it please my. heavenly Father V ' Will it honor my .SaVr iour ? Will- It- make me more Christlike ? Will it help me. inf proving, to the:world that I am a sincere Christian? Will It produce in me a: greater love for whatever belongs to the'Christian life ? Every one of these questions has a Scriptural basis, ahd are proper to ask of ourselves. : . 1

We object to card playing because it has .a bad reputation, and we are commanded to “abstain 'from all appearance of evil.1’ I t is a worldly amusement, and we are not to be conformed to this world. It is ianiil. iarizing ourselves with the acknowledged tools of the gambler, and henCe Is a dan­gerous step toward gamhiing, for the game soon becomes dull- unless . there is some­thing at stake. To give.zest to the game a prize niust he contended for, even if it be but ■ a booby prize. Of gambling .a recent writer says: “ Gambling is o t the essence of stealing. I t is 'getting another’s property without equivalent. The fact that tbe loser took the chance o f loosing io the hope that he might get the owner’s, property without giving him an equiv­alent, does not help the matter. The pro­cess is no better morally than if two men should agree that- whichever could pick tbe other's pocket- first and most adroitly should have his money. Instead of divid­ing, the guilt it would double it. There would then be two thieves in intent, and one' in act. The intent is the crime. Thus, in every' gambling game, of what kind soever, every participant is morally guilty of robbery—and just a3 guilty if he fails as if he succeeds.”

Betting partakes the same.natur? though somewhat different' In form. This is wagering a, certain amount upon a contin­gency, 'or event, -the outcome of which may be unknown to both, or partially known to- one. ' It is sometimes done to express strong conviction upon a subject or event. It is even then to be condemned because it secures value from another without an equivalent. The greatest abuse of this is in connection with horse-'raclng. Our- last Legislature brought disgrace upon itself and upon the State, by legaliz­ing gambling' in the form of pool-selling on race tracks and making the State a beneficiary of .the evil. The bill has failed to become a law because the pressure brought to bear on the Governor was so great that, he has withheld his signature to the bill. Monmouth county, ns well as some other portions of the State, Is cursed with this evil. By this the noblest anlmul -rthe horse—given to man, is abused.and made to cater to man’s lowest vices. Racing and betting cultivate covetousness, idle­ness, hatred, fraud, deception and kindred vices. Many, young men are led astray by this ensnaring-vice v legitimate business is neglected,, and money, and character are both squandered. : .

This inordinate desire for money finds expression In’ the lottery .system.. There iS/a strong tendency in human nature to try to secure large returns from small in vestments. Even churches have' yielded to this to their reproach, in the form of- ring cokes, grab, bags, &c., so. as to realize money .which should have beep voluntarily given' for God’s cause. .; Lotteries are patronized more extensive*

ly than we suppose,'because it can be dpne so secretly.; These trappers secure the address;of persons and send through the mail their tempting prizes. Tiie state­ment has been published that $28,000,000 are p<pured into the . treasury of a lottery whose name shall not be mentioned here, and nearly a l l . this vast sum comes from poof people^ for very'few "of. the. rich in ­vest their, money in .this way. To show how, many are the losers, it, is stated that the chances of drawing the capital prize of §5,000 are about One in 70,OOP.• • Where a prize has been secured the trappers pub. lish ’ th e ; same .far and wide, and so, new . victims to this wholesale robbery are se- ‘cured. •'.'ii Y /.^-yv.'v:; ■ J v ;: The question may be asked, “ Why is it that one set bf-men are constantly seek in g to ensnare their fellows - tind secure an acV vantage over themV* The love of money, no doubt has much to do with this in the casei already named;. but in addittion to this it Is the nature of sin to bring all-.to Its own low level.; Sutah would dethrone God arid make him as bad as himself if he could. So he entered the garden of Eden •to bring man to his own le v e lH o w near he succeed ed we all know." To the wicked Jews Jesus said1: Y e are of.your father j the devil, anci; the lusts of your father ye will do.” So the man Who. drinks wants others to do .the -same; A sea ’ captain whipped in a most cruel manner,- a little boy because he 'refused to .d rink : when offered; liquor by the. sailors.;; A young, man who was clerk;in a store took’his em-' ployer’s little son of. four years and tanght him all manner .of ylleness, all unknown to th^ parents. Here is a fulfillment of the words Of Christ The lusts of your father ye will do.tfjV Io the absence of restraining grace ;an(Vthe moulding power of Christ’s l ^ * in the heart, y th e love; o f money has became the root of innumerable evils, causing many to err from ' the faith and have pierced • themselves; through with; many .-.sorrows. in the present-’life, and plungedi; themselves; into perdition ' and" destruction. .Let us remember that,life doe s not consist in th e abund an ce o f the things we may possess, and likewise that godliness ism ore valuable than gold,; even if honestly acquired.; / '.y.itc-r;

He said, that the position of wornen had been' tlie position that the. Southern 'planters gave their slaves. I t was no better to-day. than it was years ago.'

The Soul’s Cry in Extremity..' ,OPENING SERMON OCEAN . OROVE AUDI*

TORIUM SCNDA7 MOItNINCf, JUNE 29, 131)0, n v REV. Si; F.. UPHAM-, D. D.

The text was; announced from Psalm 02:2, ■**Lead me to the.. Rock that . Is. higher .than I ,” and the, circumstances under which this psalm, and many other noted passages in history and poetry, were written, were re ferred1 to. Their inspira­tion came from a sense o f -deperidance on God, and helplessness without - his aid. David was in trouble; uncertainty hung over his prospects; rebellion reigned in Judea, and fleeing as a- fugitive . to the wilderness,- he betakes himself;, to - the refuge of prayer, m From the ends of the earth will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed ; lead me to the rock that is'higher than I.” ; V';'

God be.thanked exclaimed .the preacher^ for these old psalms; They have been the psalter; o f ; the churches through all the ages, “ speaking tubes ” for communica­tion.; between earth and: heaven. , ; V.

■ The first thing, to. be poti'ced, in this, cry was that i t is instructive,. Man is in such a condition through •trouble j fear and frequent calamities. th a t-h e is “ over­whelmed” when he, ha3: no divine arm to lean upon. His condition since the fall has been' likened’to a temple in ruins— the temple’ of God in ruin^, but God’s temple still. Hi3. thoughts, feelings and longings have moral tendencies which in his deepest desolation lift hini upward.• Reverence is /one of the faculties exist­ing Jri-the human;mind. . Man may be on an uninhabited island j but; in his personal consciousness he stands uncovered before the Almighty. . Aggasiz wa5 cite’d here as an exam pie of this pro found conviction. It has been well said man has an appetite for ^immortality:;Even . the • criminal in his cellshudders Vat the thought of anni­hilation, arid Ingersollj whose',creed is to eat, drink, lecture ' against God at a dollar a' ticket; and. dIe, once said' bj; an open grave, “ It may; be there is a meeting place beyond.” v There .are times when, the free th inkers theories fail. ‘"-They think of God arid: heaven' because they fare nien. This point was. illustrated by pathetic Incidents '.vhlch affected all hearts.

Prayer,;he cOnti nue^, means somethIng. You have-ceased . i t .may ■;be tb’bow your knees,'and swling away out on the. sea i of doubt, but are yob not ’reponsibl.e. to ac­count for this instinct to pray ? IIow do you account foe its exUtenee In every; hu­man breast i God surely put it there by the law’ o f . correlationi-.:y These bird's'•singing around us s’uriii in-a few months seek a Southern-clisne. ’ He .who. gave them this instinct has prepared the S.uuth land for. them. Jle who made the eye made the objects of nature fof. it . to delight tn. . f*o our Maker formed us for himself, .

This was a cry. lb thenight, seeing no no one, and yet talking with the Unseen,.one who knows my need- and can hear .and help' me, how can we. comprehend this? .. We talk to each other,’ and this is mysterious., David would not have called but for the’ Instinctive feeling which ail possess.

.The cry in his case and in every similar emergency is ejfcdu'il. David immedi­ately a d d s* T h o u hast heard me.!’' J ie is comforted at onc.e, arid a .“ ne w song is p u t; in ; liis v mputh, evenpraise;to.'God.”! On.tbis subject of answered ;prayer, there is too much cavilling; among usl v- The minister who opened this morning’s ser- .vice said Let-us:pray.*^ ' . Who believed, while his supplications were poured out,, in direct influence from a prayer tinswer- ing God ? The old 'question, “ Does God know ?• lingers still, and deadens expec­tation of immediate results.

The professed agnostic parades his ne­gations, but. w hen. taken at his own word, .as one who knows nothing about iti gets mad directly. The good old way is “ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you,” God does henr the cry of the needy.

These are old-fashioned truths, but this is; the place—this Ocean Grove, where th?y. retain their hold. ' People here accept the dcctrlue of prayer and its answer, as cause and effect. I join issue with those who say God is, but is So gfeut and high he does not care for us., Man is not the insig­nificant thing old Ceisus supposed. These hands, feet and: bbtlies 'are . not alt of o u t .' selves,- our; souls are' immaterial and im• mortal, and he who redeemed us by the

blood of Christ surely watches over his re­deemed creature-;.

.The argument Was extended and illus­tration's given to prove the divine superin-’ tendehce in! nature, with; many-signal evi deuces that; communication. is . open' be­tween the soul and its God, when all other, hope, and' help is futile .and vain. This d ivine: telegraphy between earth and hehveri is accessible, to ev^ry.; intelligent being. Use it here at Ocean Grove. Lse it to:day for a. baptism of the Holy- Ghost on this encampment,;and on oil the great gatherings of the season, that a harvest of souls may. he gathered!, in, to. the ’glory of that system ■ of grace; Which compre­hends all the lost, lending- them to present salvation and a life of prayer and. holiness to .the Lord.

Miss Willard says: Begin to teach tern- perance in the lullaby song, and the twi­light evening story.”: Tbe Pennsylvania' 5 u ^ j / i cbntains the followin g su ggestion In-furtherance,of this idea :. A'telegram come3 into the house child­

ir.r.sr Display,Rev. Dr. Cbandler's- sermon In :be Ocean

Grovo Auditorium Sunday evenicg, delivered with;great energy before a very large and deeply attentive congregation, was oi ?. mili­tary character, from the iol'owing passage r

Thou hast given a banner to them jhat.fear thee, that it may be displayed .because of the truth, jjeiaht” ‘ • ' . . - . .

“ What is an.army without a .aag>”. In­quired the Doctor, *• and what Is tbe flag for J” These questions be answered by saying: the flag was a symbol of nationality, it united In loyal devotion tboie who'foUowed It to main­tain what they held dear, 5n .regard to home, honor and truth/. In the Lord’s great army, greater In pro­

portion to the popnlavcn than is often .supv posed, it la the emolem of hi? rnQnlte, etoraal and all-consuming love to men, a standard of revealed truth as distlDgulsbed from error, and designed to unify the forces divided by sectional o r . denominational characteristics.. The Lord’s peopio of every name accept this banner, and by folbwio'g It to promised vic­tory their allegiance is known and proved.

Tbe incident of a gallant regiment starling in 1S61 from the town where he resided. wa3 given,-and tbe sensation produced In so many homes when he ws came of a great battlc,-and three hundred out of thi3 ony. regiment were, reported killed. Many of the dead- were brought home for burial.and a regimental flag was presented to the oacers who bore it back to their regiment- as a token of confidence and love from the friends. How those men guarded that banuer and followed' wbere it led, even seating tbelr devotion' with the sac*- riQce of their Hve3! •

So we should uphold the Lord’s banner and display it In the face of the enemy, with a courage that knows bo fear and a coc.siancy that never counts ori defeat’.

The Church, he continued, Is one through all the ages, and its distinguishing truth is the seed of the woman, the promised Christ and the doctrine of salvation.by the cross. It is an army iri the field, unlike stagnant water or

a. polar sea.; It is like the living streaiiilet, the rushing! torrent,-or the mighty, sea in its restless energysto conserve -truth and save humanity, i- Its militant, energies arc 'backed by the resources of omnipotence;. •='•.,

When .Julius Ceasar invaded a certain terri­tory, as;his fleet neared the coast, tbo appear-, ance' of :the enemy, was so. formidable that the. soldiers of the , expedition became dis­mayed,- when one of the tenth legion Eel zed a standard, leaped Into, the water and struck for the shore, his comrades,: enthused by the daring adventure, followed, and fortune, as usual, favOrcd their h'ero.ism. . . ; V . '!

One.of the • color :bearers of a bataliori ■ in the; late - war, during an engagement; rushed ahead bf his. lines, and was ordered back, but he replied, . “ This-flag cannot, go back; bring up.your men.”

It is to'the shamo of Christlan' people .that they do not evince the same zeal to advance, against the foe.. .. Tbe ranks are often'broken, and it is bard to ; rally the forces, although theo bi i ga t ion; 1 s so; s.t ron g to ■ sa cri il ce e ver y- tblng for .Him who. laid down his life for usi

This banner la to be displayed for the vindi­cation of! truth; Is! riot the very name and existence of God assailed,- and bis. gospel of truth impunged; We must, float the standard that bears • tbla epitome of 'all . saving truth;

God s6 loved the’ world that; he gave his only begotten Son, that'whosoever belleveth iri him should not perish, but have ever- lasting life.” ; Without this men are’ dying all around .us. Lift ; up -the standard. Here ie offered .life and salvation; but;some take and fold away-the banner unseen, when they ought to be recruiting for the depleted armies of Immanuel. , Who will join this standard here to-night, and enroll.himself! on the Lord’s side? . ;

The eye of tho Captain! la bn his people: shall .we fail to win trophies to. lay at his feet when the;grand review .-is called? .There is an onward movement, * victory- Is, iri - the air, although our flagamay . come home in shreds from the storm of war, let us be! faithful. • ;. The Doctor alluded to the courteous arid touch ing rem arks of; D r.; Stokes, in lntrod u c* ing him, when he said it might appear In futurei time,' or in eternity, that this service had won a .! soul.’ ■! For. th Is he 1 abored,: and pressed the sinner to decide; at. once. Let it. be like the volunteer in Banyan’s vblon, who signed '.himself for, the war when the bugle called for soldiers. Take this God-given ban­ner, and. let i t be joUr life work to display it for the truth.

Taylor, of Ocean Grove, sweetly fell asleep In Jesus on Sunday morning. June 22, in her eighty-fifth year.

Easy going-I V^testants are slow to believe the petty persecutions and trials that befall a Pro­testant who marries a Catholic. This hook . will give illustrations from “high life” of how Rome hus changed her methods but not her principles./ She does not make heretics “ turn or burn;” but promises of . not-interference in tpatters of i-ellgldus ' faith are now readily made before .mar­riage. How they are kept with “heretics” is forcibly: portrayed.. The writer of the book,We are assured, has had special ad­vantages to become familiar with the Wav3 ' of Rom e'in uhigh social circles” in our Eastern cities, and is bold enough to tell the truth. -The' book' will be issued Sep­tember 1st; -.

Opening Sabbath.A. DAY OF IMPOSING SHU VICES.

. Tha Young People’s Meetings,:The opening atteudauce atul interest, in

these meetings Is equal if not greater than ever before. Already there are aux- .ii<u>'ones, h ik in g for salvation, and the manifest preseuce aud power of the Holy .Ghost is there. . ■ .

Amidst the.matiy.old faces are hundreds of new ones., who quickly catch tho enthu­siasm of the service and enter into the hour’s devotion with joy. .

For it week previous to Sutidny, June UO, nil the activities of the Grove were shaped and stimulated bj* the require­ments of opening day. ' The great Audi­torium , u uder tiie; care f til eye of J unitor \ \ \ l l ; Stokes, .had' been cleaned up, the new straw nearly knee deep spread over .a concrete lloor^'platform carpeted, chairs aud tables Uisposed, ovgan p\U iu posUiqn, and tlie bulletin of Sunday's services all prepared be I ore the sun went down on Sat­urday evening.

AsonoSKKVtn : presided over by Revs. C. H. Yatmau and C. li. llarding, in the Temple, usefully tilled up a vacant liMir, and served as au appetizer for the ensuing day. At this prellmlnary gatherlug the organist,’;Miss Fisher,.and piautstv ^Ilss Ellis, with’ Bro. Sttlger nnd his resplendent trombone, har­monized their. instruments,,and.there was some lively competition iu yocalv exercise between choir aud congregation, the latter, In the judgtnent of some, outslnging the former. A number of the good old salva­tion melodies, as they waked the echoes, sent tlie people home thinking of 1‘Gali- lee” and to drop asleep under the sweet refrain, " My Saviour and my God/’

• SINDAY MOli.sr.NO at-first blush gave premonition of a rainy day; but rain or shine tlie preachers were ready, the slngers iu tutle;; and every leader equipped for a royal season's-work. Dr. Stokes was out early and appeared iii good working trim. • His salutatory to the Young People’s Meeting was .tender, and inspiring, and Mr. Yatman’s plan of ser­vice crowded into sixty minutes a whole volume of suggestive topics, every hymn aud scriptural quotation being emphasized for preseut faith aud prospective useful­ness. .

. AT THE TABERNACLE.We forget how many years.ago Mr:

Dr. Palmer had passed the extreme limit of four-score, but in the past four or live she has at no period been in better.health than she • appeared • in her place on the platform to commence her series , of two or three mouths’ daily holiness meeting’s She had around her as choice assistants Miss Cassle L.- Smith, Mrs. luskip, Rev.

•* Jesus,.we look to Thee.Tby premised presence claim;*’

*- , . A COfNOt PENCE,It was'just as Mrs.‘Palmer opened.her

Bible.to read her lessou of the morniug, and announced the llrst verse of lsiah.UO, “Arise, shine; for thy - light Is come; and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee," that the. clouded orb of day. burst through the morning mist, and traiisiigured the sceue with luminous glory. She may nor have perceived the-glad omen, as she pro- ceeded to impress on the blinds of a large audience the. truth that Christ our light had come, nnd under his dispensation of grace there were large inducements for faith’ aud • increased spiritual life and power.

a«,usual this year, and if. the’ staudard of simplicity, directness and power ; which characterized the opening sermon, cau be maintained to the end ot the season, there' will.lie less occasion for critics at its close to -satirize the grave defects they have no- ticed heretofore; The sermon was a model of perspicuity n argument, close application, melting incident and Imme-. diate effect’. The very brief syuopsis we print on first.page, can give but little idea of its admirable construction or con vine- ing power. It was a plea for prayer, an encouragement to faith in God. against all the sophistries of lutidelity, ami a sublime Illustration- of confidence lu the outcome

of tlie petition, Psalui 02:2:—*• Lead me tu the Rock that is higher than I.'V •.

SfUF MEETING. 1On reachlug the foot of Ocerm Pathway

nt G p. M., two things were obvious; tirst that this noted occasion had lost none of its: attractiveness fo r ' the' multitude, and, secondly, ou account o f a very,fresk breeze, the speakers would have an uphill job. Officers^nt; the. different avenues handed out the prluted responsive service, until all were supplied- It was’ on “ The Sea," and Dr. Stokes conducted the read­ing whUe. Bro.. .Harding, led iii song. A Wallace offei ed prayer, Kev. Wm . Frank-11 n gave a • iive-minute. i 1 lustrated sermon, as did Mr. Harding,-a : Philudelpbi'a mer. chant.

A 15t*SINESS MEN*S MEETJNO.Sharp at 4 Bro.Yatman opened a service

for laymen only, in 'the ■ Y. P. Temple. There were among the two hundred pres­eut members of -six or seven Christian de­nominations, aud ail prompt to sing, pray or speak, as .opportunity was given. The difficulties of conducting' a meeting of this kind the leader foresaw, and he sug­gested certain stringent rules to .restrain long-winded aud Irrelavent speeches, sec­tarian debates, and everything inimical to Paul’s grand detiultioii of charity. The first meeting struck fire, and if we are not mistaken, this A i \ m. hour will make a wonderful record of helpfulness, and the actual conversion of souls tills year. *

l>n. FKANU CHANDLEli; than.whom there Is no minister In Mom mouth County more widely aud favorably known, was the Auditorium preacher of the evening.. A Presbvterlau of the stal­wart type, aud entirely free from the em- barraSsments of mauuscrlpt,-liis sermon was ou a patriotic aud church: militant theme, delivered with com maud iug energy of vOice aud manner, and , although the people must have been weary after all the services- of tlie .-day, he was listened, to with unilagging inheres;, heightened by the.historical incidents with which he so profusely illustrated his theme. " The Lord’s Banner,” from Psalm 00:4. A sketch of the sermon will -be found-else* wberr. • .

Another distinguished arrival espected to­day will be Rev. Dr. L. Graccy, the New Eugland Methodist preacher whom President Harrison selected aq C. S. Consul to Foo­chow, China. He needed a resplto from pas­toral duties nud tome opportunity to see how things look on the other side of the globe, and this appointment comes lu at the right juncture’ to meet tho emergency. That ho wilt make a first-class diplomat every one who knows him bellcvos. He was formerly of the Philadelphia and Wilmington Conferences, and served during the war as Chaplain of the Sixth Pennsylvania Cavalry. His old com­rades havo just given him a banquot and a gold badge in the city of Philadelphia. He will remain at tho Grove, where his sister is oue of the summer .visitors, until after, next Sabbath, aud soon thereafter sail for China.

Speaking of Mr, C. L. Howland, how natu­ral It seems to see his face In Some public capacity at Ocean Grove,’ where twenty years ago he opened the first boarding house for hungry’people.; How many thousands helms fed in these years at. tbe well-known How­land House, and uow relieved from tbe hard­est work that ever mortal tried—running an Ocean Grovo boarding house, he wears on his breast the silver star of oQlcial authority, be­ing constituted an officer of the peace as woll as toll taker at the bridge. This latter olllco Is one requiring more patient endurance than some people are capable of, but tbe worthy bridge-tenders have the . happiness to be greeted by so many, old friends dally that their situation Is not so monotonous as some might suppose; :. V '. .

The Salvation Army‘Mass ’' who stood c.n Mr. Yatmau’s .platform, yesterday morning singing some of her effective war. songs, accompanying herseif ou a sweet-toned ylo- Uuf captured the Youug People’s Meeting, She has been an officer for several years, -and Is a native of old Englaud, like mauy others who serve undpr General Booth, -She .brought her violin with her, wheu commissioned to cross the ocean, and has been at a number of the hardest places . on thie-extending^ list of army operations; but the violin has been her solace, and secured for her a hearing wt-eu ordinary meau& faded. She earned tbe favor sbe cuj^vs in belug Captatu of the Asbury Park corps, where her labors are very highly appreciated. She sings beautifully, preaches with power, and Ut>e many of her young comrades will soon wear herself out tn the Master’s service.This, however, seems to be the sacred ambltlQn of all these true soldiers of the cross.

The good soakinc ram o! Wednesday denied the question of street sprinkling for the next few days at Ocean Grove. This is oue of the few unsatisfactory problems confronting the authorities every, summer. Some of • the residents, permanent nnd transient, are will­ing to pay their proportion of the expenses, but others arc so churlish as to treat the de- maud with. Indifference. Tbe task Is too great for the Association to accomplish with all Its other pressing duties, and yet it Is try­ing to do so on all the more public thorough­fares. If they conld order an hour’s rain every morning for the ensuing two or three months, It would be a .literal god-seud,’ and nothlug else would keep down complaint. When-a shower like that of'yesterday does happen to come aftei sacb a spell of dry, hot weather, it is cause for thanksgiving.

Mrs. H.. M. Aguew, like n .good many others,.returns to the Grove this seasou after a long encounter with “ LaGrippe," but she'has gotten her elegaut house on Sea View avenue in thejuost presentable shape, and is there to entertaiu her friends of former years as usual. The situation Is so salubrious that her health wtll soon improve.

The Olive House, very pleasantly situ­ated on the coruer of Heck and Beach avenues,, with Its open lawn, sun parlor and ocean outlook, is oue of the favorite summer homes of a large number of .our best people, who think it cannot be ex­celled for locatiou or convenience. * 31 rs.
