The Mayor and City Council held a special meeting yesterday morning, to take Into consideration the Sanitary Condition of the City. His Honor, Mayor Hammock, after calling tbe Council to order, delivered the following address : Gentlemen of the Council:—In view of the re ported presence of Asiatic cholera in Memphis, Nash ville and other places, I have deemed it advisable to call you together in order to consult as to the neces sary steps to be taken against the invasion of this moBt terrible destroyer of our race. 1 have also noti fied the Board of Health to meet us bore to day that we may receive from that quarter such suggestions the Health Officers may desire to offer. That the sanitary affairs of our city arc in a deplorable condi tion, no one undertakes to deny, and this is due in a great measure, to lack of drainage, is equally true. But to build sewers takes time. A threatened emer gency of a grave character, is now npon us, and some thing must be done nt once towards cleausing the city, though the means adopted should merely answer temporary purpose. What those means shall be we are expected by the citizens to consider and adopt without delay. Prompt, energetic action ia the duty of the hour; the people are aroused upon thia vital subject and look anxiously to us for help! Nor is this an occasion, gentlemen, for us to be crippled with false notions of economy! Let us not fear to spend money in a cause so abac' lately vital; to preserve the public health is Ihe very highest economy! After the conclusion of this address Dr. C'has. Piuck ney, chairman of the Board of Health, in view of the great need of cleansing tho gutters, sewers, privies, etc., recommended that the city purchase a large quan tity of lime and have it used in localities where a dis- enfectant is required. Ho though the danger immi nent and that measures must be promptly taken to thoroughly cleanse the city and thus preserve the public health. Alderman Langston thought a mistake had been made in the reduction of tbe street force at this time. He offered a resolution providing for the immediate increase of the street force to its original number and the purchase and distribution by means of the street force, of 300 barrels of lime. The question of the reduction of tho street force gave rise to some spicy remarks from Alderman Dodd, Young and Beattie. Alderman Boring was sorry to sec extraneous mat ter brought to tbe attention of thia body at this meet ing. Was in favor of cleansing the city, but thought sewerage without water a nuisance. Cited the un earthly smell in certain quarters as proof. Thought copperas was the best and cheapest disinfectant. Aldernian Langston moved the adoption of his reso lution. Alderman Rice lose to explain bin resolution relative to reduction of street force. Was willing to increase the force if necessary for cleansing the city. Mas in favor of a proper system of sewerage, and alpo water works. Alderman Langston called tor the division of his resolution so as to act on the lime question first. Alderman Brotherton offered a substitute, providing that the Marshal have ccntrol of tho street force for sanitary purposes and that he purchase sufficient lime to dense the city, and the work be done under the supervision of the Board of Health. Alderman McMillan moved to lay ou the table. Car ried. Mr. Langston’s resolution was amended by substi tuting for " 300 barrels of lime,” “ whatever amount of lime may be necessary,” and, with this amendment, this part of the resolution was adopted. The other part of the resolution was then adopted. Aldennan Brotherton offered a resolute ing the Marshal to enforce the ordinance! the abatement of nuisances aff: cting the s; dition of the city.

Tho exercises in all were the Eatuo in accor dance with the published programme. The report shows that the society iH doing groat good and likely to become more and more._useful. Tho addresses were the principal feature of tho exercises. That of Rev. W. P. Harrison at Wesley Chapel, is spoken of in high terms by all who had the good fortune to hear it. It was good, of course, for the doctor never makes a fsilnrc. Those of Rev. W. A. Parks and Hon. Georgo Hillycr, at tho Ceutral, were fully <qual to their usual brilliant efforts. Having been fortunate enough to procure a copy ot the address of Mr. Howard Van Epps, we publish it ontiro below. Our readers will find it highly interesting. At Evans Chapel Revs. Yirgil Norcross and D. F. Hammond were the speakers. Mr. Norcross is a young man of a very high order of intellect, which he has assiduously cultivated. His effort on this occasion was in consonance with the principles governing his life, aud of course ho did i well. Of Judge Hammond’s effort it is scarcoly necessary -1o speak, as all who know him know he did well when the theme was one dear to his heart. Tho music at the various churches was peculiarly appropriate to tlio occasion. It would be impossible to do this subject justice iu the limited space we can givo it. Suffice it to say, that the Atlanta Bible Society deserves well of the people in this city. It outfit to be and must bo kept going up ward in its good werk.

On yesterday Judge Hopkins, in liis charge to the Grand Jury, touched upon the sanitary condition of the city and the duties of the municipal authorities. In bis usual terse, pithy style, he said: There is a subject of great importance to which I wish to invite jour attention. It is not alone right of the person to be protected from actual lence, that you are to guard. It is your duty to look to 6uch causes as endanger the health of the people. Whoever erects, or continues, after notice to abate it, any nuisance which tends to injuie the health of the people in general, commits an indicable offense. It matters not who does it, nor in wh it manner it is done, tue right of the people to be protected from such an injury rises above all grants of power and privilege. It is another form of the right of self de fence, and has its foundation iu the genius of free government. The Mayor and Council of Atlanta are charged by law with the case of the streets, sidewalks and public alleys. The s treets are their premises, and they are respon sible for their condition. If, in the course of their work, they create in the streets, or on the sidewalks, a nuisance, they should be presented for it; or if others create it and permit it to remain after notice to abate it, they are indcitablc. Inspect tho city faith fully and fearlessly, and if you fiud tho public health to be in danger from such cause, promptly cpply the remedy. The fines aud costs, if any are imposed, will not come from the public treasury, but from tho pockets of those who offend. We are entrubted.with the well being of thia people, and whoever endangers, in any manner, their security must prepare to meet the consqucuces of tho unlaw, ful act. Laws should operate on all alike, without distinction of persons or powers. Whoever gets in the way should be put out of it. We learn that in accordance with the views contain ed in this charge tho Grand Jury on yesterday sum moned before them all the members of the City‘Coun cil. While our Municipal Fathers may not bo indict ed this time, yet the knowledge that they are subject to indictment may render them moro careful in the peiformance of their duties in the future.

Atlanta, Ga., Juno 9, 1873. o the Ediioks of the Herald: Your paper of tbe 4th inat.. contains a reply from Reverend Gentleman,” in answer to my request for id an'liorily for Lis statement that Tbomas Paine recanted on his death bed. The gentleman refers to a tract published by the American Tract Society, and written by the Reverend Dr. Brownlee, who states tint hit (Brownlee’s) information was derived from parties in New York. The statements made by Dr. Drownlee cannot be substantiated. Dr. Brownlee was not nresent when Paine died. Neither wero those from whom he claims to have received his information. 1 beg to refer tbe *« Reverend Gentleman ** to Paine’s biographer, Vale, and the works of Paine, published by Mendum, of Boston, Haskell of Philadelphia, and Williams of London. These works contain certificates of those who were present when Paine left the earth-fife— namely: Amasa Woodswortli. Thomas Nixon* Daniel Pelton, and hie physician, Dr. Manley; all of whom certify that Thomas Pain* died as be lived—a philosopher, firm in tho belief that the principles he advocated were correct onea. Granting that the storiee of Paine's change of opin ion upon his death bed were true it arguca nothing. It is not to be supposed that a person in that situation, weakened, often mentally and bodily, by disease, is more capable of discovering truth than when In full physical and mental vigor. Paine’a will, made out just before hia death, contains the following: "Reposing confidence in my creator God, and in no other being, for l know of no other being, nor believe in any other,” etc. Then, again, he aaya: **I consider myself ia the hands of my Cre ator, and that ho will dispose of me after thia life consistently with his Justice and goodness. I leavo all these matters to him as my Creator and friend, and I hold it to be presumption in man to make an artlclo of ffcltb aa to what the Creator will do with him hereaf ter.” Why should Thomas Paine dread the future? His earth life was devoted to the elevation of his race, and to dlsentorestod acts of charity. Washington states that to Paine was doe, more than any living man, the success of America in her struggle for inde pendence. Paine's Political Works are masterpieces of English literature. If hia theology was wrong hla personal friends, Franklin, Jefferaon and I*Fayette, did not think so. Noither did the learned Humbolt. Tbe scientists of present d*7. Tymdal Huxley, Carlyle, John Baskin and Ageaslz hold a similar re ligious opinions to Paine. It ia high time that all such scandals and untruths were stopped by the so-called Christians of Ike pres ent day, aa those relating to the deathbed of that friend of humanity, and cosmopolitan Kero, Thomas Paint. The mild and loving religion of Christ re quires no such false props to sustain It Justxck. The body of thia youDg man, who wa« reported drowned, in Yellow river, in Sunday’s Herald, was recovered on Saturday night and passed through this city on yesterday, en route for Columbus, Georgia, where the family of deceased resides. The body was accompanied by the father, who was overwhelmed with grief at the loss of this, his favorite son.

Zo We learn that a committee, consisting of Messrs. C. A. Collier, R. J. Lowry and Jack Boyd, waited on bis Excellency, Governor Smith, on yesterday, and in formed him of the organization of the above company. The Governor has ordered an election to take place on Thursday night, and consequently much interest is manifested by the “brave soger boys,” who form this command to know which of the many meritorious members shall be selected to fill their chief offices. aro confident good selections will be made, as tho entire company is formed of the very material.

ADDRESS OF HOWARD VAN EI’PS, ESQ. The great orator, Phillips, in a speech delivered at tho annual meeting of the British and Foreign Auxili ary Bible Society at London, uses this langwigc: “Indeed, my lord, when wo see omens which arc every day arising—when wo see blasphemy openly avowed—when we see the Scriptures audaciously ridi culed—when, in this Christian monarchy, tho den of the Republican and tbo Deist yawns for tho unwary in your most public thoroughfares—when marts are ostentatiously opened, where the moral poison may be purchased, and man’s perdition be cheapened at the ^itall of every peddler—no friend of society should continue silent. It is no looger a question of political privilege—of sectarian controversy—of theological discussion; it is become a question whether Christianity itself shall stand, or whether wo shall let go the firm anchor of oar faith and drift without chart, or helm, or compass, into the shoreless ocean of impiety and blood.” The words of this distinguished person so strongly depict the evils by which we are environed in there present rimes, that I trust I may be forgiven the length of the quotation. Mr. Phillips spoke with es pecial reference to the radical changes wrought by the violence or tlie French revolution, and bewailed the disastrous innovations iu philosophy and ethics set at large in tho world by the virulence of that contest! Weeds thrive vigorously, and scarce ever lose thcii footing, though often battling with, and sometimes desperately extirpating plants of a wholesome nature;] aud while it may be true that some of the good actu ally resulting to the world from the French revolution Las survived to our times, it is certainly true that tho seeds cf evil, germinated in that dis tracted soil, flourish to-day In mid-life vigor, whose hardy stems and luxurious foliage shut out tho warm eunligbt from heaven’s best, most beautiful flowers. It is certainly truo that those same evils, that called forth from England’s boasted orator expressions of alarm so intense, greatly increased in potency by in dulgence and augmented in number by some super- added new ones peculiar to ourselves, now assail the church, its ordinances, its (cachings, and even the most Holy Bible itself, with desperate, dangerous en ergy, threatening to overturn tho altar, and to rear over its ruins a reign of new inventions, sought out of the devices of men’s hearts, and tending as certainly to the subversion of tbe Slate as to tho dishonor of the Master. Well may it be asserted hero gravely from this place, that a return to a plain, honest, and unprejudiced interpretation of this sacred instrument, and a rigid adherence to its mandates, whenever anything is by it clearly enjoined, is a rule of conduct in which the statesman, the churchman aud the citizen have an equal, au immediate aud dccp[ interest. Well may a society, organized for the diffu- throughout this community of tiiu simple Anglo- Saxon version of the Holy Bible, without note or comment, oncouragod by your sympathy, aud pro moted by your generosity, find a place in the busy whirl of this toiliug community to commemorate an other return of its natal day, and to usher in a ucw year of prospective service. It is a time wheu it would seem that this work should be encouraged. An enlightened public policy has suggested tho expedient, and a liberal public sentiment bas provided the means of establishing in this community a school system that is swiftly bearing on heavenly wings tbe blessings of education, with equal and im partial benefaction, to the mansions of the proud and the cottage of tho destitute. Germany itself, whose policy of education has become tho wonder cf the world; whoso subtle philosophy aud exquisite intel lectual refinements are captivating the rniids ef Eu rope; whose intelligent soldiery, hot from the con flict with ignoraut aud undisciplined forces, arc but just now returned, boisterous with exultation, and crowned with the laurels of perhaps the most brilliant victorits that tbo page of history records, has not within the same extent of territory, and for tho train ing of the first awakening years of tho youth ful mind, au educational policy, more general in it9 operation, more impartial iu its requirements of admission, or more directly and easily in reach of the masses of the people, thau that which rears its domes within the limits of this city. I do not speak with reference to the higher walks of culture. It iB to be deplored as a material misfortune, that this common wealth can boast no Ceutral University, heavily en dowed by legislative appropriations or individual be nevolences, judiciously officered, aud thoroughly equipped with tho instruments of experimental and applied science, for the continuation of the great work that tho wisdom of this community has com menced. Nevertheless, who can estimate the developments of tho iuitial system inaugurated in our midst? As there is no bladn of grass so humblo where tho dewdrop does not glisten, no hovel so obscure where the sunbeam does not penetrate, so there is hero no unfortunate one, to neglected whom tho inspirations of learning may not reach to refresh, no home so wretched where tlio rays of intelligence may not enter to illumine and adorn. In the miserable outskirts of tbis city, where pov erty ekes out her narrow living, wbero ignorance and vice And temporary shelter, some youthful Spurgeon may be bending over the task that a generous educa tional policy has enforced upon him, his soul fired with tho consciousness of newly awakened power, his curious eyes sparkling with the enthusiasm of a new born aspiration, destined some day, proper Influences thrown around him, to wield tlie sword of tbc spirit on the ramparts ol Zton with an energy, before whose decisive stroke infidelity may pause in terror. Some Beecher, devoid of fanaticism and of purer piety, armed with the akill of logic, aud disciplined in the offices of eloquence, who, when tho fulness of years shall come, may drivo in convincing efficacy the ar row of the word home to the heart of tho stolid. Some Munsey, pale with intensity of purpose, trem bling with tho agony of overtasked emotion, before wlioso blazing invcctivo tbo blasphemy of radical spiritualism may one day liido its shame in the igno miny of an enforced recantation. Surely this is a timo when a society having in view tho distribution of the sacred record amid the fami lies of the destitute, should take its rank sido by ride, in the popular estimation, as an impartial and co-or dinate power, with that educational policy whose humanity declares wealth and caste to be no longer entitled to a monopoly of intelligence. The publio ministrations of the allar, the irregular and accidental operations of private charity will not supply the spiritual wants of this community! There are in every quarter unhappy ones, so sunk in apathy that tho sweet Sabbath boll boars to them no injunction, suggests no harmony, recalls no memo ries, pledges no repose; there sro retreats so squalid and repulsive, upon whoso suffering, despised In mates a gentle touch nover rests, no word evor falls encouragingly, no eye ever melts with sympathy. It is left for an association founded npon ostablishod principles of business, aud operated by agents who must bo efficient if they would conlinuo to be em ployed, to penetrato the regions of destitution and want, and whenever one is found in tho imago of God and without Ilia precepts for a guide, to set up there s pillar of cloud by day and of fire by night It would be extravagant, elr, to affirm that none of tho seed thus given to the winds will find lodgment iu barren soil. Much your labor will go forth as a raven over this troubled sea and will nov6r return; but tho dove also will Issue at the window that will after many days bear back the olive leaf, at once .the inspiration and the reward of your pbtlantkopy. Let, these, fire your efforts go forth aa au angel ot gentle ministry, her features ohastened with pletv, her countenance aglow with enthusiasm, her eye kindling with human sympathies, her breath fragrant with the balms of heaven, her voice freigbted.with messages of hope. Wherever poverty shrinks, let her step be heard— wherever despair seizes, let her cheering notes be sung—wherever disease languishes, let her soothing touch fall upon tbe failing pulse. Oh, sir, I reflect upon tho allies the enemies of our most holy religion marshal in their ranks, and my breast burns with the eloquence ct her victories. I behold deism with courteous sarcasm, crucifying the Son of God anew. 1 behold atheism in a solid phalanx, and polytheism in a thousand shapes, spring ing to the shock, armed with the sophistries of learn ing, aud urged by the fury of fanaticism. I behold infidelity rising as some miasmic vapor from tho sweet slopes of cultured Germany and spreading over Europe, concealing with tho fragrance of a flower the effluvia of certain poison. I behold spiritualism as a new recruit, rushing to the field, noisy with blasphe my, and bearing aloft a brazen serpent, which, under the pretense of hoaling the nations, but adds venom to disease. And yet, afuid all tbis opposition, high abovo the dust and din of the battle, one may fancy he hears the hierarchies of heaven choiring forth paean notes of victory, as year after year the cross of Jesus is pushed farther and deeper into the heart of hu manity. You tell us, sir, that this unpretentious volume solves in its sacred pages tho mysterie#;of our suffer ing existence. Then, in God’s name, let it go forth ! Let it declare to the beggar that hia rags do not debar him a crown. Let it carry its assurances to the wid ow, that though she is desolate she ia never deserted. Let it inform the ignorant that the coronal light that shone on Calvary is yet blazing down centuries, dazzling while it consumes would-be extinguishers. Let it couvinco the intelli gence that doubts amid all tbe contradictions of creed that though Babel tonues distract its utterances, its confiscations are brighter because of tbe darkness by which it is sought to bo enveloped. oh, sir, in those moments that break over the soul of every reflecting man, wheu ho seems to stand alone “ in tho solitude of creation "—when his efforts disappoint him, and ambition deserts him, and tho dearest friend draws not near—when, in tho agony of his isolation, he casts his weary frame down in the dust of some deserted Ilarau—let him be assured by its provisions that though he is unat tended indeed, a ladder yet slants from heaven to his feet, with aiigels ascending and descending on it from his God. save s vague threat, toward the temple, and even hia judge washed his hands of the blood of this “innocent and the Roman Centurion, hardened and Inured to the scenes of war and carnage, was forced to exclaim at the crucifixion: “Surely, this was the Son of God.” Thus, as a benefactor, the like of which cannot be again conceived, is Jesus “despised and rejected of men.” Is it not strange that men should hate Jesus for the very causes for which they ought to bless him most? When he tells them of the sufferings which he endured that they might bo saved, they hate him, because they are in a lost c ondition. Is it right to blame the law because we are subjected to its punish meut, for transgressing its prohibitions ? Surely not; yet this iB the attitude of rebellious man against their greatest and best friend. Long suffering, patient and meek, Jesus yet awaits the recognition of those whom be died to save. * * * * Quite a number of new converts were added to the membership of this church on Sunday, as a result of recent four-weeks revival, held under the auspices of the Pastor and Rev. Mr. Nall, of Alabama. The sacra ment of the Lord's supper was administered. Bisnop Pierce preached at Trinity Church Sunday morning one of those deep, soul-stirring sermons which have made him beloved wherever ho is known. His subjoct was, “ I am the bread of life; be that cometh unto me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall not thirst." John vi., 35. He told his hearers how Christians in all ages bad found Joeu8 the bread of spiritual life; and how, when their souls were imparched, His mercy and grace had kealed them. It is needless to attempt to givo an epi tome of this powerful effort, as It would do tbe dietic. guished speaker lnjuatico, and would not accomplish any good. REV. DR. hHAVER. This distinguished divine filled the pulpit of the Fourth Baptist Church yesterday morning, the pastor being absent. His text was, “Why is Light Given lo a Man Whose Way is Hid and Whom Gcd Hath Hedged Iu,” Job, 8d chapter, 23d verse.

Sold by Heard, Craig & Co. mr26-tf Prayer, said the reverend gentleman, was the nat ural impulse of tlio human heart, which felt its de pendence on a higher power. -Volural, because rea son taught man to know and feel the truth of the ex istence of a Supreme Authority. Impulsive, on ac count of the Reuse of our utter dependence on this Supreme Being for all tho blessings which existence vouchsafes to us. The natural attitude of prayer, causes us involuntarily to raise the eyes and assume the atti tude of beseeching one whom we consider bo far above us and elevated to a pedestal infinitely higher aud grand er than any power on oarth could possibly assume. As this was the natural idea and inclination of the hu man mind, so apply it to the words of the text. It was seen that‘‘two men went up into tho temple to pray; the one a Pharisee aud the other a Publican. Tbe Pharisee stood and prayed thus with hinuelf: “God I-thank thee that I am not as other men are. Ac,” congratulating himself ou the virtues which were represented in his course of conduct, aud exalting the actions of his every day life, while the poor Publi can, realizing the sense of hie short comings, having a wholesome tear of the wrath of God, as well as a truo conception of the power, majesty and sublimity of that 8upreme Being to whom ho directed his petition—“Stood afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote npon liis breast, saying, God be merciful to me, a sinner.” These prayers, necessarily, wero symbolical Jof the feelings which filled the hearts, actuated the minds, and were demonstrated in tho actions of those Scrip tural representatives of the efficacy of prayer. What is the lesson to which is added the solemnity of Scriptu ral indorsement do we find here chronicled ? I will tell jou—follow the reading of the 14th verse—“I tell you this man (the Publican), went down to bis house, jus tified rather thau tho otner; for every’ one that ex- altcth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.” What a lesson does this teach us. As I have said, wo are naturally prone to pray; yet how few realize that the spirit, which is in fused into tlio petition, is what possesses the efficacy iu prayer. Cannot we learn that prayer does not con sist in beautifully worded sentences, and in seeking public plrtces, howsoever pathetic the altitude or chaste the language ? To feel the want of the blessing wc ask; to ac knowledge the need of the help wo dcsiro and to attribute the power to Him to whom wc pray, are among the cardinal features cf tho addresses which arc heard by the ear of Him who, ’mii the thuuderiugs and lightuings of Sinai, proclaimed those laws which wc kuow we havo broken, and for which transgression wo invoke His gracious pardon. To feel justified, iu our petitions is what we desire. Then approach not tho mercy seat with pride and self righteousness, invoking God’s blessing for those duties well performed, but come in a lowly spirit, pleading rather the merits of a crucified Redeemer for those plain duties yet unfulfilled, aud then only may you know that like unto the publican ye can go unto your house justified. For truly will it be known that he that humbleth himself shall be exalted, aud every one that exalted himself shall he abased. “ Music hath charms,” etc., so a well knourn mem ber ef the Beethovens must have thought, on yester day afternoon, as he hummed a plaintive melody in the ear of a confrere, underneath the awning of Cohen A Selig’s. A wagon without a driver, and to which was attached a couple of mules, came slowly round the Kimball House, and leisurely attempted to eroBs the Whitehall crossing just as a freight train claimed the same right of way, on yesterday. A friendly hand stopped them in time to save damages, and the police took charge of tbe estrays. A Humbug i A Humbug !!—Yes Jackson’s Magic Balsam is a humbug and a swindle.

Morning lesson from 1st to 40th versos inclusive XV. chap. St. Mathew. Subject of discourse was the c of the 3d vers® of the 53d chap. Book of Isiah: “He i* despised and rejected of men.” Thia who!* chapter of the book of the inspired prophet is full of the excellencies which were to mark the character of the coming Christ. Yet prominently stands out tho Words of the Text, and how truthfully were they verified by the actions of the cotemporariea of our divine Savior Truly was ho then despised and neglected of men How often is it seen that men outrage Christ, our Redeemer,wheu we Uke iuto consideration the perfect tion of his character, and the beauty and glory which marked all his earthly works. Long foretold by the inspired writers who saw, heard, aud felt the power, omniscience of the Fathor, his coming was looked for and awaited by tho inhabitants of tbe earth. Many, to-day, while reading the account of the crucifixion, in the light of the wondrous works performed by the vic tim of the Cross on Calvary, little deem that they, too, arc actuated by the same feelings which caused those who persecuted tho Blessed Son of God, to cry out “ Away with Him t Crucify Him, etc.” But is it not shown to-day, that the teachings which our beloved Lord demonstrated still meet with the same disfavor, which characterized the hearts of those, who, while ho writhed upon the cross besought him saying, “He saved others; Himself he cannot save. If he be the King of larcal, let Him now come down from tlie cross, and we will believe Him.” In ight of Divino sufferings, in tho promise of Him who says, he that cometh unto to Me, I *rlll cast out. Men still coutinue to walk in t way of condemnation, and refuse to accept the great riflee, which a loving though outraged God, exacted of Him who came dowu on earth, left the glories, beauties, and infinite joys of Heaven; wlio took upon Himself tho privations of the humblest of human walks of life, and endured the pangs of Gethsemane, and boro upon His shoulders the sin* of the world—a trial so yreat as to bend His imperial will—while in the darkness of that ignominious death, when c soul of his assumed life too, was crucified, and he felt that “temporarily Clod had withdrawn his favor;” that tho Salvation of tho lost souls of those bo bad disobeyed the mandates of an augry God, should bo saved. IIow great must have been these pangs, when no was forced tooxclaim: “Elol, eloi, lama sabach- thani.” To look upon Christ as a benefactor, how* often do e see that IXo ia outraged by human nature comparison, take tho proudest exploits of the great est plillautlirophist which has ever blessed this earth with bis pretence- What has his splendid gifts done toward tho amelioration of the sufferings of humau- ity ? IIow meager are the rosults to which cau accrue from hia beuiflcencc. Look back upon tbc classical ages of tbe past; upon tbo palmy days of Grecian splendor, pomp and power. Look at the attainments, when tho brain seemed ou fire with the knowledge of human acquirements and.science,’amid all these acqui sitions, it was confessed, “without Christ man is miserable.” What has not Christianity dono toward the preservation of human knowledge and human attainments? No schomo of moral* or of roligion seemed to satisfy tho miuds of men till the advent of Christianity to asaumo, act upon, or bolicve the code of ethics and morals propagated by thoee wise men, Socrates, Bennaca and others were left to tho choice of men, and brought with them naught but the cold realities of the reason. Love to God, and love to man, sprang iuto existence at the advent of Christ, and aro inseparable with hia history, life and teachings. Jesus left upon xeoord a character aub- Hme In tta purity, morality and grandeur. When in those dark days when men sought his Ufa there ware none throughout all the land who could come forward and prefer aught against him.
