THE BREAD OF ST. JODOKUS. FaOM TBS GERMAN OF KCSEGAKTZK To prove how pure a heart bis servant bore. One day the Lord to Bt. Jodokus’ door Came begging bread in garments worn and poor. ■* Good steward,” spake St. Jodokus, “ give him Dread.” alone remains,” the steward said: “ For th< e hnd me, the faithful dog beside.” “Give!” skid the saint; “will not the Lord pro vide f” The steward marked Hie single loaf with care, And Cat lour pieces—each nu equal share. Then to the beggar, in no lrieodly tone, '* On# each for thee and me. the abbot one. One lbr tbe dog, since I Can but obey.” Jouojns smiled ; the beggar went his way. Not long, and in yet wretcheder disguise, Once more the Lord asked bread with pleading eyes. “ Give him my piece,” Jodokns gently said: “The Lord provides.” The steward gave the bread. Again tbe Lord beside Aie threshold stood. And, faint with hunge*&fgged a little food. “ Give him thy portion^A ns Jodokus said; “The Lord provide*.’ 1 steward ggve tlie A little while, and naked, blind, and lame, YtiA fourth time came the Lord, and begged the “Givn°tbe dog’s piece,”-the holy man replied. “ The Lord, who feeds the ravens, will provide.” The steward gave. The beggar left the gate, And a voice cried alond, “Inj faith is great! Thy Lord hath proved His servant’s loyalty— As thou has trusted, be it done to thee!” The Steward looked, and in the tranquil hay. Behold four laden ships at anchor lay. Far Up their sides the water’s dimpling line Broke-round their holds well stored with bread {and wine. Joyfully the steward hastened to the strand. And saw no man upon the vessel stand; But on the shore a snow-white banner waved. Whereon In golden lines these words weregraved: “ Four ships He sends who doth the ravens feed, To him who hath four times supplied His need. One for the abbot, thus the list »egin; The steward and the dog like portions win, The lourth is for the sender’s needy kin!" European Correspondence. The Churches of Berlin, Prussia. r i ; 1U The Churches in Berlin are about fifty in uiuafberj only a fewuf which have any thing of special iuterest—historical archi tectural or otherwise, attaching to them. — This nnmber is certainly not commensu rate with the extent of the population— about 700,000—a large proportion of which worship God, as one told me yesterday in my good English, in God’s first temples— ’|he groves—represented to most Berliners %y the Their Oarten, an immense park just outside of the city containing 1,500 acrds of wood land. Almost any of our city,Southern Churches, while lacking in the magnificence of proportion mid costly decoration which distinguish these, are interiorly much more comfortable. Every Church in Berlin—the new Amer ican chapel' excepted—is innocent of car pet br cushion or adequate means of warm ing satisfactorily. The American chapel, principally through the energy and liber ality of the late American Ambassador— Qpv. Wright— and his wife, is now near ly ready for dedication, being beautifully and tastefully fitted up after the manner of the best ordered American Churches.— In the wall is a simple and elegant marble tablet in memory of Gov. Wright, placed there by the German congregation connect ed with (lie Methodist Mission here, who begged the privilege of being themselves allowed to present this memorial of their regard and appreciation of his noble Chri stian character. The Dome—the Royal Church—stands in the Pleasure Garden, near the Royal Palace. It is the work of Schenkel, but -fioefl small credit to bis genius, bearing no comparison with cathedrals iu other large citips—St.Paul’s or Notre Dame, or the Dome at Cologne, or tbe Magdeburg Ca thedral, or a score of others .that could be mentioned. Thejportafc is supported by two fluted lonic columns, while ifi the nicbes stand three colossal angels elabor ately chased in copper—Tioca’s models. In the interior, the roof is supported by Corinthian columns. The altar enclosed by hn iron rail, is adorned with figures of the! twelve Apostles, modelled after those at Nurenburg, the altar piece being the •Dfescent of the Holy Ghost” by Begas. Thp half length likeness of tlteApostlo Pe ter was a present from Pope Leo XII. Tbe Church is the burial place proper of tbd royal family, and contains the remains of the Great Elector, and Frederick I. in gilded coffins. In the North endare effigies in bronze of the Electors John Cicero and Jo&cMta, while on the West side i.re the coffins of the 'Queens, Sopnia, Charlotte and Dorothea. 'the most interesting feature of tbe Dome is its fine singing, which is led by a choir m fifty boys under the most scientific direc tion, and is said to be the best in Europe —that in the Sistine Chapel at Rome be ing second best and the Emperor’s choir at Bt. Petersburg next in excellence —these being the only ones at all worthy of being brdufdtit into the comparison. Tbe three most memorable Churches in tht city are St. Nicholas, St. Peters and St. On one of the walls of St. Nicho laif—a Gothic edifice of different periods— we read, Rebuilt in 1223.* Not improbably for seven hundred years has faithful pray er from fervent hearts ascended from this spot. In many different lauguages, it miy be, but animated ell by the mind which was in Gbrist Jesus, have millions, kneeling around these consecrated' altars, besought, ‘ Give us this day our daily 1 bread,” etc. This Church, dedicated to St. Nicholas, St. Martin and St. Catherine received as early as 1802 from the papal legate, Raymond, an indulgence for one hundred days for ali who would here do peuauce. Iu the year 1539,under Jo&lchim IL, it was solemnly consecrated as a Luth eran Church. It is, what the oldest, not necessarily the largest, Church in every place, must be, more interesting than any other. Whatan untold history is con nected with this venerable buildiDg! If these Old walls could speak, what a tale could they unfold! But I must not grow sentimental.- . , St. Patera is, mentioned in ancient re cords as earlyas 1238. After the original bfiilding had beqp subjected to unheard of Vicissitudes of fortune, such as partial de struction by fire more than once, falling of steeples, aud various other calamities, the present building emerged from ruins, a handsome Gothic edifice in the shape of a Greek cross. No pains or expense was spared in ite construction in order to ren der it acooustically perfect; but it seems only another Illustration of the frequency with which faultless theories fail in the carrying out. It is less adopted than any Church in Berlin to musical purposes, soeh as sacred concerts and oratorips, not withstanding its magnificient organ, one of the largest and finest ever built by Buckhols. The Church has experienced such a series of disasters in the time past, that we listen there even to the rendering of Mogart’s Requiem in fearapd trempiing —with feelings very nearly akin to those With which, twelve or fifteen years ago, we we sat in the comfortable? jails on the Camden and That the Church oTat-Marynas a his tory is announced from the outside and confirmed by all its internal decorations and furnishing. Just before the, door stands a stone cross, commemorative of the death of the Provost Nicholas from Eernau, whom the Berliners murdered, afterwards burning his body in the New Market Place. Thereafter for many years was the wholecity put under the ban of the Church'by the Bishop Brandenburg. 1 No ringing of Church bells was permitted, MACON. GA., SDN LUX SEPTEMBER % 186 TANARUS, no baptismal or marriage rites performed, no masssolemuiapfi* no sacrament cele brated, Only to-qne order jof religious brethren, everywhere known for their good works and lahpcsofJove, -was con cededed the favor of pffigUking of the sacrament iu thechapel oF thi3 Church. The interdicLwaa'tflter tweuty-tvfo years removed from the city, upon file condi tions of the purment of a large sum of money to the Bishop of Brandenburg, the erection, upon the spot of the murder, of a stoue cross upou which a lamp should be kept perpetually burning and the yearly performance of a mass for the soul 'of the deceased. Within theChjirch are numer ous paintings, Btatnes* |hahk-oflering and trophies, Xgilts, propitiary and grateful, from heroes imploring success for untied anus, or returniug thauks for granted vic tory. ■"*>' ■ =*-»«*. . The Neue Kirche and French Church stand near either side or the Royal Thea ter in the Gens d’armes J?lace, and they bavesome claim to architectural beauty. They are precisely alike with the excep tion of the st&tutiigitf utndfaK in tbe niches d!he pillared p_<w. andjKwl with Barnabas at Lystra, while those in the French Church are statutes of Christ and the Samaritan woman at the well, Christ preaching on the Mount, aud the disciples on the way to Emmanus.— With a tolerance, the result rather of uni versal skepticism than of a Christian Catholicism, Frederick the Great had those Churches built on either side of the Theatre to afford, as he affirmed, equal Church and play-going privileges —the pas sage from Church to the Theatre being made convenient. The Dreifaltigkeit Church (Trinity Church) is plain exteriorily and almost withour ornament on the inside, being interesting solely from tt.e interest adher ing to those who have occupied its pulpit. It is hard to realize when one hears here a plain, practical sermon—its burden being, “Love not the world nor tbe things that are in the world ?” that from this very pulpit fcjchleiermacher preached from Sab bath to Sabbath to aumiring congrega tions, developing from his “ personal re igiouß consciousness ,” a system of theology of wonderful power, and impressing him self upon the religious thought of Germa ny and the Christian world with almost superhuman force. Here also has Krum macher, whose writings areso well known in America, preached. He now resides in Potsdam, about twenty miles fiom Ber lin, and continues to preach. St. Matnews emurch is a modern struc ture in Byzantyne style, and its interior arrangements are far more inviting and comfortable than those of any of the Churches I have mentioned. Its congre gation is said to be tbe most fashionable and aristocratic in Berlin. The'Queen and-other members of the royal family frequently attend divine service here.— Your readers will be surprised aud doubt less gratified, when I inform them, that from the pulpit of this Church may be heard,-Sabbath after Sabbath, sermons as evangelical, .if not as eloquent as are preached by our own Bishop Pierce. Its pastor, Dr. Buchsel, occupies official y one of tbe highest positions in the Gov ernment Church—the evangelical Church of Germany—aqd is noted for the purity of his character, his zealous devotion to his ministerial duties—his fine social qual ities which win for him the love of his flock, especially of the children, and the sjmple, earnest, affectionate style of his preaching. He the pastor of this Chruch for more than twenty years, and lie has never once failed to occupy thepul pit on Babbatli, except during forced ab sences from the city. The form of worship of the Evangelical Church is very simple and impressive.— Short prayers at intervals during the ser vice, reading of lessons from the Bible, singing aud preaching. There are no re sponses iu the Liturgy to be used by the congregation. The sermons are generally an exposition of some passage of Scriptui’e consisting of-several verses. You hear little learned exegesis or profound litho graphy ; often an impressive reading of, a parable, a Simple explanation of its im port, an affectionate exhortation, under standing siuging, and fervent prayers make up the religious part of the morning services. I say religious part, because the numerous notices of betrothals, which al ways consume considerable time, hardly ■truck me as such. The music in the Berlin Churches is a specialty. Every Church has an organ, but the organ playing is always secondary to tbe singing, which is more strictly "con l ' gregational than you hear in America.— Sometimes the choir, on special occasions and at stated times, sings alone, but this is of as rare occurrence, as when some of our brethren with sweet voice and commenda ble, sings alone before service, “When for eternal worlds we steer,” etc., or some other new hymn to which the others lis teu admiringly but not with the feeling, that they are shut out from all participa tion in the singing. The melodies of the hymns are of the simplest character—well represented by "Monmouth” and “Old Hundred.” I have never once heard a Cadenza attempted on au ambitious scale. You may hear the beautiful “Beta" any evening in the Opera House, or at Krolls when “i)«r Freyschutz” is given, but never id Church. The melody may be all com posed Within the compass of an octave. As you enter the Church, you see thenum-i her of the hymns posted iu prominent po sitions, and as all the hymns have their own melody you know in all cases what willbesung. Hence the congrgeratlon is all well prepared to join in the singing as the choir itselfi . >Tlie business of tbe organ aful cht.ii is simply to lead the congrega tional singing—nothing more isattempted —hence the organ interludes are always short and simple. No one ever dreams of joining a Church choir here for the pur pose of displaying the powers of the voice and gaining applause thereby. I imagine that If a Berliner Were to hear thie organ playing and choir singing in some of our American Churches, he would be as much shocKed and horrified as the veriest “old fogy” to be found in the land. The ideas entertained by the people in regard to the sacrtdnets of everything pertaining to the Church and divine worship are highly commendable and should prevail every where. At the appointed hour for service, the congregation enter the Church as noise lessly as possible, quietly take their seats, bow their heads and spend a few moments in silent prayer—there is no disorder, no looking about, no whispering, no going out and coming in, and if a person enters after services begin, he walks on tiptoe and attracts ho attention: The most profound silence is observed, every eye is fixed on the preacher and every word uttered by him is heard by all. Persons in America who condemn in the bitterest manner everything connected with German theology and religion know not what they do. This is the laud of Luther, and he still lives in the minds and hearts of the people. His influence can never dife. There is silently progressing here a great moral revolution. I verily be lieve that Jtobmaiisin now exerts more pow er in America than in Germany. The doctrines of universal salvation, justifica tion by faith alone through the merits of b Christ, the witness of the Spirit and sanc tification are preached every Sabbath from the pulpit of the Evangelical Church. .The King and Queen of Prussia are members of this Church, and are said to be very orthodox in their faith. Prussia is now the most powerful Protestant nation in Europe,arHl occupies a position which will enable her to Wield an influence in favor of a pure Christianity which will be felt by all nations. Let ali Protestants everywhere pray that she may be prepared for her noldfe destiny and for the grand work she i9 to accom plish. If this letter i9 improved you Will hear from me again on similar subje«ts. * R. M. Baunders. A REBEL TRICK. Hotv Information was Transmitted to the Besieged at Vicfaiburg. " _* [Correspondence of the Albany Evening Journal. Noticing a few dayssiace.iit au obituary column of a Southern paper, the tallowing announcement, relieve* me from an obli gatioq I voluntarily entered iuto before the clqse of the late war: & « “ Died at —the 18th inst., J M —aged 44 years. ’The deceased was long and Favorably known as a steamboat pilot, and throughout tbe rebellion a firm friend of the Southern cause, for which he made many sacrifices syid rendered Valua ble services.” y *. -■ Tbe J#wni*el gavaJdv was that I would saraa now offer it to the public throughout your columns: It will be remembered that among the many reasons that operated to prevent the fall of Vicksburg, Miss., when it was first attacked by Gen. Sherman, and after wards so laboriously besieged by General Graut, was the certainty of the iuforma tion the enemy seemed to get. Notwith staudingjevery precaution was taken to prevent spies from obtaining and trans mittinglnformation—notwithstanding the river was closely watched to prevent the least message from being floated down to Vicksburg—nevertheless information,and that too of the most po@tive nature, daily reached ihe enemy, to the great annoy ance of the .officers' and men, who were slowly wearing their iiyes away under au .almost tropical sun, and. also to the morti fication of the Commanding General. It is my object, briefly,to show how that information was transmitted. M. was at that time au impressed pilot in the service of the Union army, having iu charge one of the transports lying below Young’s Point, on the Westside of the Mississippi. plan for advising the enemy inside the garrison of Vicksburg of what was taking place orcontemplated in the Union army was simple and effective—so simple that it easily evaded all attempts*at detection. During three or four hours of each day, M., after gathering-from the of ficers at what information he desired;—for officers would talk—would repair to a fat;m house dofrn on the point, and with a large, mirror which he had pre viously taken from the cabin of the steam er, amuse himself by throwing the suo’s reflection up and down tbe.river, occasion ally darting the concentrated rays of May or June sun into the eyes of some gull or loon, quietly floating on the water, causing it to dive down or fly up with a half frighteued shriek, and. iheu turning is full Upon the enemies works along the Vicks burg levee. No one thought of suspicion —no one asked him what he was doing— for the employment was so simple aud ap parently abstracted that none thought for a moment of attributing any other motive than mere idle pastime. , But this|was his st cret,previously agreed upon between himself and Gen. Pember ton! Vicksburg is mainly upon a high bluff; the lower hart of the city during cer tain house of the day being entirely in the shade. Commencing at the upper end of the city aud within view, M. had selected thirteen houses behind and above, these. To eacli one of these houses a letter of the alphabet was given. From the window in the farm-house he threw the reflection first upon one house, then upou another, an officer of Pern per ton’s staff in the secret, at the same time standingon the levee with his back to Mr., and yet reading every word easily and rapidly. And he not only gave informatipn of what was transpiring :lO tbe Union camp at Young’s Point, but also gathered from Northern newspapers important news relative to the movements of armies elsewhere, sending it across the river in the same manner. This plan was kept up until a short time before Gen. Grant made arrangements for going bplow Vicksburg, crossing at Grand Gulf, aud coming upiu the rear. Just be fore that event M. was ordered to another point, and consequently the enemy had no light upon the subject of that last move wbich finally resulted in the capture of that stroughold of the Confederacy. 'These facts I obtained from M. himself while afterward an officer on board one of our transports with him, and I have every reason to believe, from experiments made at the same place, that it was “a plain, unvarnished tale” he related to me. Nice Hiding Place. A TRUE STORY. One morning I went to my pleasant schoolroom and found many vacant seats. Two little scholars who had been with us a few days before, now lay cold in death, and others were very-sick. The diptheria had entered our village and school. The children were weeping bitterly as I went in, and some of them run to me saying: ‘O, teacher, Minnie qnd Georgie are dead. What shall we do? Do you. think we shall be sick and die ?' I touched the bell lightly as the signal for the opening of the school, and when’ they had all taken their seats, I said : ‘Children, you are all alarmed at the approach of this terrible disease. Yoti sorrow for the death, of your mates, and fear that you too may be taken. Many of you have asked me: ‘What shall we do?’ I know of but one way to escape this trouble, and that is to hide from it.— If you will listen, I will read yod of a hid ing place.’ All listened eagerly while I read the ninety-first Psalm. I made no comments, but in a few words asked that tbe Com forter would carry its message to their hearts. They all seemed hushed by the sweet words of tbe Psalmist, and morning lessons weut on as usual. At noon a sweet litttle girl, named Lizzie came to me and said: ‘Teacher, are you not afraid of the diptheria?’ ‘No,’ I replied. ‘Well, wouldn’t you be, if you thought you would be dick and die?' ‘No, dear, I tru9t not.’ Lizzie stopped her questioning and look ed me full in the face, for some moments, with thoughtful, wondering eyes, and'her face brightened a little. ‘O, I know how,’ she said. ‘I know why you are not afraid. You are hiding under God's wings. O, what a nice place to hide. ‘ X thought of that as you read the chapter.' I wish I could hide there ' too; then I should not be afraid of the dipthe ria or any thing else. Is there room for me too?’ ‘Yes, Lizzie,’ I said, ‘room for you and for every one that wishes to come. Oh ! He longs so much more than you think to hide you in His armß, to clasp you to His Heart, to wash out your sins in His own blood. Used as he is to the music of heaven, with its choir of ten thousands, yet it will be far sweeter in His ears to heat your childish voice whispering: ‘JesOs, thou art my biding place.’ Will you not say with your whole heart those piecious words?’ A soft ‘I will,’ was her only answer; but I trust at that glad hour Lizzie soughtand found the shelter of.her Saviour’s wing.— [Central Presbyterian. !
