Emory College,
Oxford, July 17,1871
Editor Sun : ’Jjhe Commencement
Exercises of Emory College were ush-
| cred in yesterday morning fay Bisfaop
| Pierce with a memorial discourse on
| the life of Bishop J. 0. Andrew—be-
| fore his death the senior bishop of the
j M. E. Church South.
I Within the memory of every citi
zen of Oxford and every member of
that enraptured uudience, no such
sermon has ever been delivered. The
intervals of weeping and religious
enthusiasm manifested by the audi
ence were such as could have been
induced only by the most thrilling
eloquence, such as can find utter
ance in the inspired, soul-impassioned
words of this “ Prince of pulpit ora
tors.”
We beg the pardon of the audience
and the minister, but it is the desire
to convey to others an idea of this
splendid triumph, that we are prompt
ed to give the following very mea
gre and unsatisfactory synopsis of a
sermon which we imagine finds its
parallel only in some of the sublimer
flights of Hascum :
Text : A good name it better thou
precious ointment, and the dag of
death than the day of one’s birth,—

1. None arc saved without spiritual
regeneration. “Except ye be born from
above ye cannot see the Kingdom of
God.” By this, not by baptism, we are
made partakers of the divine nature.
By this we arc made children of God.
By this we receive the “spirit of adop
tion.”
2. Aro you, ray friends, “born of
God ?” Have you been “renewed in the
spirit of your mind ?” Have old things
past away and all things become new ? -
Arc you now a “vessel of honor prepared

The Whig sentimentalists of the North
are now relieved from one of their
difficulties by the elimination of the
slavery question from the politioal
issues of the day. Both of these
classes, which have gone so far to
keep the Radical party in power, are
sick of the extravagance and tyran
nical tendencies of the Grant admin
istration. aud naturally gravitate for
relief to nurds the Democracy.
The “new departure” was invented
—or rather, it was so pretended—as a
bridge to licnr these voters back to the
Democratic told. If it were no more
titan a bridge to puss them safely over
it Mould have licen all right, for the
Democratic tent is wide open to re
ceive and embrace all who honestly
come to it as fellow soldiers to save
tlie Government from its present
jieril, of becoming hardened into the
despotic form. Rut there is good rea
son io believe that the “new depar
ture.” so fur from being a bridge to
puss new members into the Democrat
ic tc camp, is a bridge that lares and
marches the Democratic camp over
to Radical Mongrelism. It is one
i tiling to invite recruits into the Dem
uiTn.'i,- temple, hut it is another thing
' dish that temple and to built
a new one after Radical pattern, in
order to make it entirely acceptable
to the new recruits. The New York
Dag Hook pithily expresses the
thought in these words:
But uow we are told by the organ of
the "Departure" [the World] that these
old deserters “yearn for the old faith,
and want to come baok I" Very well I if
they “yearn for the old faith, "let them
joiu-" buck to it—our arms shall be open

and loftiest of those which have lieen
transferred to their immortal home.
After ranking him among the
noblest of the land, we knew not his
worth. Until the alabaster box of
Mary was opened it could not diffuse
its concentrated perfume; and not
until the spirit of the dead had flown
did we discern ths blessed incense
which now fills the land with its de
licious perfume, waiting to be en

people who for near three quarters of

My text is embodied iu his life. A
good name was his portion. To him
the day of death was better than the
day of Ifirth ; one was the beginning
of a life of sorrow and tribulations,
tlie other the birthright and entrance
to immortality and never-ending
glory.
Human wisdom consists in sound
judgment, that which makes the infe
rior subordinate to the superior. The
most boundless ambition yields to
what is honorable and useful. Fame
may come from invention, philosophy,
statesmanship, poetry and valor; hut
the highest tyjies of humanity are
those stumped with the ensigns of
Christianity, and therefore God’s in
spiration, the source and fount of all
genius.
An ambitious career is like the bril
liant frantic swoop of a comet wan
dering from its appointed orbit in the
solar system, and dazzles only a mo
ment, but the Sun of Righteousness,
when tlie comet is extinguished, con
tinues to burn and is creation’s eter
nal light und joy!

dance of earthly goods. A good

nistic to spiritual progress, and fatal
to the ultimate salvation of many
souls. lie tliut muketli haste to he
rich shall not bo innocent. Money
implies no excellence and confers
none. By the dispensation of God,
satisfaction is withdrawn from those
who seek after wealth with all the
heart. Tranquility is incompatible
with the greatest 'financial success,
und the favor und sympathy of our
fellow creatures are more to be desired
than gold.
A good name is more precious than
pleasure. A life of pleasure und sen
suality does not lead to everlasting
happiness, ami is no food for the soul
on earth. The chief aliment of the
soul hereafter ought to lie its chief
treasure and consideration here be
low. A sensuous life is an insult ti>
our .Savior and a forfeiture of tlie di-
j vine quality of our being. It pol-
1 lutes the heart, perverts the intellect,
and makes the will a vassal to pas
sions unbecoming a rational being.
A decent respect for public taste is
commendable, but to engage in trim
ming and policy, thus courting pub- 1 the other, un i t
