Wyatt. inhls sixth lecture on “David
and his Times.” The subject of the div
‘cthlrsswaa“ALie and What Game of
It.” The text was taken from I Samuel
1, ‘ ‘xxL. 10. He said David becomesan out-
law for no sin of his own. The king
. drives him out of the country. In the
. hbernaclc, at Nob, he asks for bread,
gandlieatothe priest about his errand.
‘ He then flees to the;Philistines, to the city
_ chath. Here he is recognised, is ar—
reeledmndds in peril of his life. He feign!
~ madness, dweives King Achish by this
‘ faint. and is driven out ssamadmanf
Hersturna to Judah and hides in the
cove of Adullan. David, in this stress of
circumstances. has let go somewhat his
hold on God. He has become distrust-
ful and desperate. He is in the mood to
- yield to temptation, and fails before
. a lying spirit. We have a tran-
script of his heart experience
at this time in the thirty-fourth, one
hundred and forty-second and fifty-
seventh Psalms. It is impossible to read
these and not see that he had repented
and Men forgiven. Among those who
came to him in the cave of Adullan was
Ablathsr, the high priest, who told him
ofthe slaughter of the priests by Doeg.
the Edomite, who had overheard
his lie in the tabernacle. This
was the terrible fruit of falsehood-
David had better excuses for lying than
most liars have. He lied to save his life.
Is this ever right? If the emergency
come when you think it necessary to tell
alietoone who has a right to expect
from you the truth, in order to save your
life, make up your mind your time has
come and die like a man. It is not neces.
sary to live. It is necemary to be honest-
The lecture closed with a description of
' the falsehoods in modern society, and an
appeal to let the "spirit of truth" abide
inourhearts. The anthems and special
music for these lectures have been beauti-
fully rendered by a full choir. The topic
for next Sunday evening is "Homesick-
ness.”

PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY.

 

Seventh of Rev. B. 0. Sherwood‘s Hermann
on “The Kingdom of God Among lien."

Yesterday morning Rev. R. 0. Sher-
wood preached the seventh in the series
on “The Kingdom of God among Men.”
The subject was “The Present Stage of
Progress; or, The Relation of the King-
dom to the Thought and Life of the
Present Age." He took three texts. from
John xii., 32; Matthew xxviii., 20, and
Hebrews xiii, ii. The pastor Bald: Men
must know Christ to love him, and if
they are to know him someone must
carry them the information. The
Christianity of the nineteenth century
isneceasariliy of adifierent type from
that of the first, fifth, fifteenth or
eighteenth century. The world has
made progress and Christianity must
meet and influence this progress. The
kingdom is like a mustard seed: it will
produce after its kind, but the quality
will certainly vary according to the con-
dltione it .meets and care it receives. We
often hear an expression of regret that
the good old times of religious zeal and
experience are things of the put, and
sometimes there is the shadow of a
doubt as to the conversion of young
people who cannot tell a remarkable ex-
perhnce as was common a generation or
two ago. This is not necessary. The
conditions are different. Our habits of
life and thought are changed. The main
question is not whether their expert
eases correspond with those of others but
whether they know Christ at all.
The kingdom of God among men is to
beutabllshed along the lines of proper
human progress. Christianity must
adapt lbslf to the generations of men ac-
cording to the conditions and needs of
each successive generation. it is not a
cysts-tot castltoa steeds. but of life. It
certainly breaks down evil, but does so
largely by building up the good. Good
music, faithful preaching. pleasant
church hulldinga,suitabls and pleasant
social regulations and practices, are not
proper ends in themselves. lines of

In rather he Gives some Pratlecl
Illustrations of this Great Virtue.

The high man at St. Mary’s Roman
Catholic church. yesterday, was read
by Rev. Timothy M. O'Brien. The
sermon was preached by Rev. Father
Ines, who took for his "Condsmn
not,lestyoubccondsm .jcdgs not,lest
you be judged." "There is a sin," began
the speaker, "which is always prominent.
It enacts tbe person occupying the
highest. as well as one subjec to the
humblest stationoflife. I: II dom-
inset in all clinics and countries. It is
that of uncharitableneaa, that sin which
wearenearly all guilty of. and yet the
very subject of charity itself in God's
infinite mercy. Do persons ever think
of their uncharitablencsa and of the
many issues of that terribc sin ?” be con-
tinued, and refemd to the life of Jesus
Christ while on this earth when betrayed
by Judas. Bis charity went out to him
after he had betrayed his Master. When
the apostlés were asked byhim inthe
gardentopray with him while he was
yet among them. and when he found
them sleeping instead of praying,
he did not chastise them. His charity
was too great. his goodness
too powerful. He spoke of 'the three
great virtues, faith, hope and charity,
the greatest of which is charity, yet how
often is it almost scorned. The count
less instances of the Creator’s charity to
his creatures are sufficiently eloquent to
demonstrate his mercy to mankind. He
cited an instance of ayoung man who
was run over by a train, which the
speaker was waiting for, at the railroad
station in Cheyenne, Wyoming, early in
the seventies, and he was the first to
reach his side. The young man prayed
for a priest, and ;Father Lee informed
him that he was one. The unfortunate
was only nineteen years of age. Thedy-

 

and he received the last rites of the
church and died in ashort time. It was
an example of God's charity, as was also
another incident he cited. When he was
pastor of a church in Dawson, Neb.,
it was blown down by a tornado, May
30. 1870, and fifty-five of his congrega-
tion were buried beneath the ruins, but
everyone of them escaped without
seflus injury. This accident occurred
the evening of the closing of a mission
which had been in progrrss in his church.
He concluded by asking his hearers to
take the opportunity to make their peace
with God, and take advantage of his
charity by the fulfilling of the duties re-
quired by the Mother church at this sea-
son of Easter, the season of which has
just closed. and to practice charity
and be charitable toothers, by gooi work
and actions, and therefore free them-
selves of uncharitablenesa by not con—
demning or judging,

The nor’aastsr which struck Nerwaik
last Saturday, and has not «used its
wild career for nearly fortyoeight hours,
has not. as far «can be ascertained,
does any serious damage. Beyond the
driving ashore of several skins anchored
near shore, the sprouting of a couple of
usuanthcpwpmyofdscobflremftbs
Gregory Point road, and the dsmoliahln
ofs tree in front of thorcsldsnce o
J. W. Maine, on Osborne avenue,Eaat
liorwalk. the storm has not proved to be
of so serious a nature as might have been
supposed. .

The breakers could be seen this morn-
ing driving nearly six feet high against
the islands. A large three-matted
schooner was area passing. com-
pletly stripped of all her rigging.
Shewastossing like a cork upon the
waves, but showed no desire to put in
here. This is the first vessel sighted by
boatmen for nearly forty-eight hours.
All night a party of men were on watch
near Dorlon's Point ready to put out to
any vessel showing a sign of distress, but
their services were not required.

A three-muted schooner bound east,
whose name meant he learned, anchored
south of East Reef, Friday evening. As
the sale began to increase, the citizens
in the vicinity of Saugatuck became
alarmed, thinking she had run upon
the reef. . Their fears grew rapidly and
excitement ran high when four men
were men in the rigging. Signals were
made to the schooner by those on the
shore. and about dusk fires were built.
The achmner’a captain saw the signals
and displayeda white light, signifying
that all was well. Yesterday morning a
number of men attempted to put out to
her, but their eflorls were of no avail, as
the vasel was dragging anchor and the
blilows were roaring nearly a dozen
feet high. This morning a large
number of people congregated as near
the beach as possible, and the vessel,
which is nearly two miles out, seemed to
be safely riding the waves. The Rose-
dale, a large Sound steamer, was sighted
going " towards New York about 10
o'clock, and cents! schoonera were also
sighted, all teasing and being carried
along,aeemingiy almost wholly out of
the water. The damage to property in
the vicinity of Saugatuck has been very
slight, considering the rate at which the
gale swept through the country and
across the Sound. Alarge tree in front
of Henry Sherwood'a house was blown
down and obstructed trafllc for some
time. A horse and wagon being driven
along the Saugatuck road was also over-
turned. The horse was uninjured, but
the wagon was completely demolished.

The ravages of the storm were fiercer
along the shore this morning than at
any time since the commencement of
lhc gale. At ll o'clock the tide was
nearly four feet above the usual high
water mark and it was still rising. it
was not high water until about 12:30.

The wind tore a large hole in the roof
of James Stevenu' ship chandlery store,
on Water street, Saturday afternoon, and
the ruin came ponring down in «meat»,
damaging considerable stock, the amount
of which Mr. Stevens has not ascertain.
