Anaier Dicat —Whon a plant or a Dee begins to
decay it must needs die. It cannot be revitalized.
But it is not so with human being*. A human ruin
can be repaired, strengthened, restored, though a
brown leaf or a withered blade of grass can never
be made green again. In tbs autumn of life, or
even in its winter, when nature seems to be giving
way under the pressure of years, it is still possible
to retard tbo progress of decay, and io lend to tge
more than its wonted vigor. As a means of pro
moting this object, Hoetetter's Stomach Bitten is
unquestionably tbo moat potent of all reatorativee.
It will not mako the old young, but it wiU prevent,
lessen, or sooth the infirmities which aro the usual
acoompsniments of tho decline of life. For debil-
ty and a lack of norvoue power, from whatever
cause arising, it is the medicine that of all other*
before tbo world, beet deserves tho name of a spe
cific. In parity, in invigorating properties, in its
adaptation to west stomachs and feeble organiza
tions, it has no competitor among the tonics of the
pliarmacopo-ia, nor among proprietory remedies.
Besides it strengthening principle, it poMUfloa alter*
stive and regulating properties of the highest order,
and as anti-bilious medicine is far preferable to any
of the preparations containing mercury. Time has
shown that for physical decay, nervous debility,
dyspepsia, bilious disorders, and intermittent fever,
Hoetetter’s Hitters is a remedy without a rival. This
is tho season of the fail of the leaf; let it remind
tho old, the feeble, the sickly, to invigorate and reg-
ulato their systems with this great vegetable tonic
and alterative.

DK. HICKS’ SERMON'.
The dedication services of tho First Street
Methodist Church were conducted according to
tbs programme published in our Sunday
morning'* issue. At an early hour we were at
the building, bnt ao immense was the congre
gation that had assembled to witness the dedi
cation and hear the discourse of the eloquent
Divine, the Pastor of the Church, it was impas
sible to procure a seat. The sermon was one
of his moot masterly efforts, and having pro
cured from Dr. Hieka the original draft, we
publish it in full, to the exclusion of all other
matter,- believing it will prove more interest
ing to the majority of our readers than ordi
nary city new*. After the sermon had been
oooeluded, the Pastor announced that $3000
were still wanting to place the Church out of
debt, and a collection having been taken, the
amount was easily nixed. To speak of Dr.
Hicks' eloquence were a superfluity, as the ser
mon speaks for itself.

By Brethren : You will not expect an elabo
rate discourse to-day. Our energies have been
severely taxed for weeks, in preparing for this
{lorioos occasion, and our hearts are lull of re-
igioos gratitude, and our mouths of praise to
God. The desire of our eyes is before us to
day, and we have reached a point in our efforts
where we can rejoice together in the eontem-
plation of a finished work. Truly, “What
iath God wrought?” Truly, “ What shall we
render unto the Lord for all His benefits 1
This is a sort of “house warming,” and our
numerous friends and neighbors have dropped
in to bid ns good cheer and lend their friendly
voices to our chorus and song, and pledge us
in a new covenant of fidelity and service. For
a long time, we have been small and feeble.
Our infancy hu been somewhat protracted.
But today we shall begin to walk alone. To
day, we greet the world in certain language of
fraternity ana goou -mi. --j ifke our place be-

church may prove a noble standard-bearer, a
social and moral bulwark, a bright and in
creasing light!
Aa we are about to launch forth (as I trust)
upon a career of enlarged usefulness for our
hope and guidance through the future, let us
press upon our warm hearta a few of the les
sons of the past, and seek to strengthen our
selves in all holy purposes by studying the ex
amples of onr ancient brethren.
There was something peculiarly affecting and
mysteriously grand in Hebrew patriotism. It
was a part of their religion, or rather the off
spring of their religion. The dealings of the
Almighty were not apart from, but interwoven
with, national progress and events, and so in
spired and impressed every son and daughter
of Israel. .Religion was public, and publio
polity was religious. Nothing was personal;
everything touched and addressed all. Politi
cal institutions were intensely religious—-relig
ion was national. All their joys and festivities
partook of this national character. The na
tion was a family or community of blood ties.
When one had cause of triumph, all rejoiced.
When calamity befell one house all mourned.
And everything was sacred. They were tho
chosen of God. He established them, gave
And grand. Charity is called Queen. Fidelity
is King. These, too, occupy the throne of vir
tuous achievement in an eternal unity. Fideli
ty ! Ah, it creates the idea of a world of forces
ready for any trial—invulnerable defense of
honest souls; or, a sleepless chieftain, on the
watch for any arduous task of duty—quick,
unerring, omnipotent! But who can follow or
describe it, when roused and fired by sore trial,
or determined opposition! Then the sleeping
lion shakes himself and trembles the world!
Then the almightiness of faith's grip is seen.
When Jerusalem is in rains; when the citi-
*en of this spiritual capitol is in captivity to
adversity and temptation and trial; where euo-
mlee deride and taunt—“aha, aha;" when they
who have sought to destroy the last vestige of
hope “demand .a-song” for their profane de
light; when the braised heart has confided to
the pitying willows its stringless harp, and only
the memory of yore remains. If amid these
evidences of abandonment and woe, the faith
ful soul exclaims in fixed, fervent constancy of
of purpose and of love, “If I forget thee, O,
Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cun
them laws in minutest detail, famili&r.’Zod them
with His name and authority by means of the
oomxnon things of life. Everything bore tho
stamp of God, and nothing was done, suffered
or enjoyed, that did not more and more reveal
His presence with, and love for them. So when
exiled from home, nothing could tempt them to
forget the souroe and instrument of their peace
and happiness. They were too brave and proud
to insult the judgments of Jehovah by unhal
lowed commerce with the profane. Their very
afflictions all the more deeply engraved the
memory of mercy and grace on their hearts.
Listen to their repinings when in bitter cap
tivity ! They take on the form and breathe the
apirit of devotional chants—with interludes of
flowing tears and throbbing hearts. No beauty
of nature, no combination of art, no lavish at

and deserted streets; Jerusalem was to them
tiU dearer for all that; the presence of Jeho

heavens; the home and crownof all their hopes;
the source and strength of all their joys.’
For my part, my brethren, I shall always love
God’s anciant people for this. I shall always
connect the Israelite with the first and mighty
evory f one* I "stiff read' and'sco the* tat prefer-
onco of the Divine heart—the first peculiar ob
ject of Divine goodness. I can only think of
them as In a long captivity, patiently and weep-
folly chanting their undying hopes on the river
banks of time beneath tho drooping willows,
through whose branches, as in the olden time
through the tracery of the sacrod place, streams
the glory of the Lord. And, with my deep
prayer and quickened sympathy for them, I
shall always join my hope that yet again they
may take down from tho bending willows, their
long silent harps, and with holy rapture, aing.
ing and harping, return to tho Holy City, and
dwell forever in the exceeding glory of the
Lord! I hopa for this in Jeans of Nazareth—
the God man, the Christ of humanity, “to the
Jew first, and also to the Gentile.”
My brethren, 1 present yon in my text to-day
_ national picture of faith, alive and strong
amid ruins! Though captive, still a conqueror;
though weeping, still triumphant; though under
the willows, not dead nor craven.
We do not see here the exhibition of snllen-
ss, but the triumph of devotion. Not a
morose, stubborn bate, bnt a deep, fixed royal
tenderness of thought, and eacredncss of feel -
ing. It is indeed a sublime picture. Sublime
in its depths of humiliation; in its heroic faith;
in its sturdy patriotism; in its tender, woepful
devotion. To take it all in, one must view
and estimate it from its own standing points
of observation; snd thus viewed, no profane
thought would snliy one’s contemplation. It
is the Church of the liviug God in exile. That
Church which Ho had established in the earth
as a branch of Heaven, to reflect His excellence
and show forth Hia praise, in which His power
was wondrousiy displayed, and through His
will was made known to all mankind. Now in
darkness and captivity; her altars desecrated
and demolished by vile hands; her magnificent
Temple razed to the earth and in confused
ruins; her Priests driven from the sacred por
tals; her glory eclipsed in the most terrible
gloom; and her agonized Prophoto dumb with
awe, wept their silent ways! Behold, my
brethren, the saddest and most mysterious
Providence! Where is the Lord, that Hie
chosen people are thus torn and scattered?
Where reposes the right arm of Jehovah, that
the prostrate, exiled Church is no longer fonnd
leaning on the arm of her beloved? Why this
humiliation? Why ihi* banishment? Why
this horrible torture of soul in a Strange coun
try ? Oh! God, how long ?
These reflections and a thousand like crowd
upon ns as wo gaze with admiring sympa
thy on that sad group under the willows along
tho banks of Euphrates. But onr questions
are presently answered. The music ol faith in
mourning is as touching in its pathos as it is ditch.

very pause* sob with an eloquenoe divine.
Here it is beard. They do not aing! How can
they sing? The cruel captors require a song
from the broken in heart. Who ever heard a
song in such a night! They lilt their sad eyes
up among the gentle waving boughs and greet
their silent, stringless hups with floods of
tears! Listen! They can not aing to gratify
their enemies; bnt they talk with the dumb in
struments, the sweet voiced companions of hap
pier days at home, far away; and they say
“How shall we aing the Lord’saong in a strange
land?” “But our devotion is not less constant
and trno. Our hearts do thread; our copious
tears, when we remember Zion, do make holy
notes of love and faithfulness upon the secret
strings of the spiritual harp!’’ And then, oh,
incomparable utterance! “If I forget thee, oh,
Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her
conning. If I do not remember thee, let my
tongue cleave to the roof of my month; if I
——I J.maat.m above mv chief iov!”
prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy
Time end distance have not disenchanted this
wonderful threnody! More hoary than the
reeds and gray osier willows on which their
harps hung silent; mellowed only by the influ
ence of time, this heroic Hebrew strain has
rolled down through the centuries, warming,
melting and seasoning humanity—time’s grand
gulf stream!
And now, my brethren, let us, on this our
liberty dty, sweetly learn a lesson. In time of
peace, prepare for war, isa human forethought.
In time of prosperity learn the enricnlnm of
adversity. Many lessons are taught by this
sublime scene, but I have chosen it tot only one.
It is thie—fidelity, religion* fidelity. After this
comes reward, deliverance, higher and more
glorions triumph, which we shall see.
Jly brethren, the history of Infinite goodness
toward man has a negative side—at least so it
appe ars to us. The Divine Father acjiieves His
gracious purposes by opposite, not to say oppos
ing processes. Oar highest happiness consists
in devotion to Him, and that devotion consists
in the devout employment of all our powers,
and the proper exercise ol the religious facul
ties. Now, these faculties and powers are best
employed, or appear to best advantage when
opposed. Antagonism ii the law of progress.
Truthfulness is always beautiful, but it is heroic
and attains unto grandeur when it is maintained
against odds. Virtue is always great, but it at
tains sublimity ana is awful in majesty, when
it remains invincible under sere trial. Then it
transcends the poet’s erthe printer’s art, and wo
lo3e the conception in a glory far transcending
innocence in all its just and perfect beauty.
Bo I affirm also of this King of principles—
Fidelity! The word itself projects upon us,
and we recognize a massiveness both rugged
mug! it presents a picture and a reality of
fidelity unutterably sublime, and ia, in itself, a
compensation, foil and adequate for all tho
painfol process of its development! Itvindi-
catea itself. It returns commensurate blessing
to its author, and to its owner.
This, my brethren, is God’s voice in the
dust! This is the grand uttornnoo of a faith
which to always great; but whose mighty grasp
ia felt in all its self-contained divinity, in the
boundless world of woe and darkness! It ia the
one fire on the altar of the soul which cannot
be smothered; the one firms whose ardor can
not be quenched; the one condition of suocess
and triumph which cannot be removed. Oh!
it strengthens in the storm like someforestgiant
which bends from above, but strikes its anchor
ing roots deep and deeper into (he foundations
of stability.
Now, this principle of fidelity is universally
at home. I mean that no change of place or
circumstance can alter its natnro or its exhibi -
tion. It finds anchorage in aU the world, and
holds the Christian—the true character—in the
light, (bat all may see, love and fear. Not that
all conditions and situations are received alike,
and alikemske impressions. Bat that in all uud
through all this principle holds its nndeviating
coarse. Fidelity to trath and honor conquers
thejrcrld.
He who, deep in his soul founds hia purpose
‘zarnQtpjTftjnite
a'grave boau-mo life) cau afford to hang mS
harp upon the willows, and deny to a taunting
heathen the tnbato of a song; and by his fidelity
to the truth will walk a path in which his enemies
cannot follow him. High above the hopes of men,
ho lives in the realization of honor. Far beyond
the reach of real injury, he reposes on the conch
of peace. And though, humanly speaking, he
may sit beneath the willows and have no heart
to smite with fingers taught to invoke from
harpstrings the suit and holy music of ostensi
ble devotion; yet in the secure temple of hia
soul, over which, in “strange” captivity, no
willow (emblem of his humiliation) shall over
cast itosbadow; I say, iu the secure and glorious
temple of the soul, in strains of living, immortal
rapture, musio is made; music that will chain
to silence an angel’s harp, and hold the oar of
Deity!
This was the characteristic feature and power
of the ancient Hebrew. He never forgot Jeru
salem. He never failed to face tho temple in
his heart and worship. He never compounded
with country, race, custom or circumstance, ro.
lievehimof tho obligation of hia faith. The altar
to the God of his fathors was erected in his heart.
All else might be destroyed; temple,government,
service and ritnal; tiU he was true; and on the
banks of foreign streams he ponred his salt tears
and sent them forth out of tho land of captivity
that they might minglo with the friendly waters
of tho sea that washed and kissed his own be
loved shores; and he is heard to repeat his faith
and challenge maledictions of oternal power if,
in a single fugitive thought anything different
should find a home in his soul!
Christians, is here a lesson for us ? Do wo,
in admiration of such devotion, sufficient! j real
ize its sacred mission to our souls ? Does it
teach ns a great principle? Most true! and
much more! It shows us how it works. It re
veals the secret of its operation as well as the
incomparable tenacity of its nature. What then ?
Just this! The Chnrchof Jesus Christ is the
world’s Jerusalem. Yours and mine; oura and
aU mankind's.
We, my brethren, have a glory to defend, a
devotion to show, a principle to vindicate, a
fidelity to exhibit! We, too, should be able to
say of onr Jerusalem, “If I forget thee let my
tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth.” Our
Zion must bo the crown of onr rejoicing, and
answer enr loDgings by her attractions and wor
ship. Shall the Hebrew show greater fidelity
to the dear mother of hia hopes which are but.
dimly held oat to him in types and shadows
and figures, “in which were offered both gift
end sacrifices, that could not make him perfect
that did the services according to conscience;”
shall he who stands in the shadowy light of a
morning yet to dawn, teach and excel in
fidelity him who embracing Christ “who offered
living God”—“comes with boldness to the
throne of grace, obtains mercy and find3 grace
to help in time of need?” No, a thousand
times no I We should ho master* in fidelity,
since we live nnder the meridian glory of gos
pel power! Instances of deviation and defec
tion should be as rare in onr lines as discord in
the continuous round of the material universe!
Possessed of on experimental knowledge of
Christ, we should and must lead tho world in
Hi3 praises, and exhibit His majesty in onr
simplest lives. His church should be ever on
oar hearts, and onr fidelity to her claims, her
purity, her doctrines, and hor defense should
defy the powers of evil arrayed against her.
It remains, my brethren, to consider, more
sarticnlarly, the object and scope of this fidei-
ty. It should have inspect to all the holy ways
of the Church, but I may mention a few par
ticulars which stand out prominently and com-
prehensively: Authority, Doctrine, Worship.
These aro the mighty words of the Ktogdom
of Jesus Christ. We are not advocating, in the
name of the church institution, infallibility,
but authority, to which every Christian has
covenanted allegiance. Authority as a captain
who gives tho word of command to his ready
hosts. Authority as a father who discloses his
will to lii3 children. Authority as n teacher
who asserts and uufolds the imperative truth
of God. Authority as a guide, whoso directions
are “This is the way, walk ye in it.” Authority
as the sole keeper of a refuge to whoso shelter-
ing arms the poor, the outcast, and the storm-
beaten are commanded to hasten. In whose
divine sacraments the weak find strength, the
poor find abundance, and the guilty Jnd peaco
and pnrity. In whose holy promises and coun
sels, the despairing find hope, and whoso
heavenly influence reaches to all extremes and
makes the land of captivity a garden of delight.
For within the Cirareh of God are tho monntaln
of safoty, the stronghold of protection, the
cities of refnge; here break forth the streams
in the desert of which the prophet speaks, and
here the sources of all comfort and graco are
fonnd, as established of God in the everlasting
ago.
But this fidelity most respect doctrine. The
revealed doctrines of salvation, which are the
holy lessons of the kingdom of Christ, are to be
faithfully believed, holily realized, constantly
defended. Believed in the heart, exemplified
in (he life, and defended in tho aotivo charities
and zealous advocacy of truth. But truth in
doctrinala will be variously assailed. Its em
blems may be brought into disgrace. Its tom-
lies may be desecrated. Its high behests may
>e challenged. Other plans of escape from sin
and eternal death, may be set forth, and blind
leaders of the blind may pretend to bridge the
" ' Sztsa n u'&
■ Tho Christian must
fast the oracles of God. He is set for the
defense of the gospel. He will bind himself to
the pillars of truth. He will all the more ex
hibit its excellence and vindicate its claims in
his holy life. These are the brave words: Jetxu
Christ and Bim crucified. Justification through
faith. Sanotification through the eternal Spirit.
The genuineness, authenticity, infallibility and
preciousness of the Word of God—the sacred
Scripture. The resurrection from the dead by
the power of Josus Christ, “forever with the
Lord.” These will become all the dearer to him
as the bitterness with which they are assailed
increase. What a fitness for defense! What
an armory, and ob, wbat exhanstless munitions
of war!
Christian, on the Rock of Ages founded, you
will defy all vain and empty boasts, and, faith
ful to the doetrinos of the cross, you will lift
it higher still, on—beyond, and higher yet be
fore tho gaze of meD, all dripping with attoning
blood, or radiant with tho glory of the Lord 1
Tlie stored proofs of the doctrines of salvation
by Christ Jeans are unapproachable. Men
pretend to assail them, and I suppose they do
after their best wisdom. Poor, weak, uncer
tain feelers in the dark essay to ignore their
existence or deny their power. Oh!
my brethren, it were gross folly to
chide the blind, because lie dentes the exist
ence of light. Tain reason’s powers are great
I have no disposition to undervalue them, and
they must continue development; but when
the human mind hes reached the summity of
its greatness; when reason, old and gray,
and rich and wise, slowly crawls up the Nebo
of Its most perfect vision, it will be only to die,
'strnck dead, beneath the mightier revelations
of Divine power and grace in Christ Jesus the
Lord. Aye, revelations which the loftiest and
swiftest perceptions never so much aa dreamed
of discovering, but which to tho faithful and
humblest of Ocd, in the doctrine of the
are known and enjoyed. Men say “the Church
must fall.” Down with the Church! Her
doctrines must bo superceded. Her authority
must be denied. Her worship must be abol
ished. “Christianity ia a failure.” COh God,
may we aU be such failures, evermore, amen.)
Are! Satan hath certainly said so! Tho
wicked heart of sin hath steadily so declared.
The vain philosophies of men have always ut
tered like imbecile ravings! But, my breth
ren, let the truth bo trusted; let the doctrines of
salvation by faith in Christ be preached well
and truly: and
Do you see this cringing flower.
I will tear it to pieces. .
I will hurl its flakes of dehcalo leaves at
your heads. See how they fly from person to
person, and tho space is filled with the graceful
flutter of their fimbriate wings. When I may
expect to batter out yonr brains, with rose
leaves, the enemies of the Church of Christ
may hope to raze her fair and vital proportions
to the dnst. by their equally airy and fantastic
attempts! Are the doctrines of Christ unap
proachable? Truly so! They are spirit and they
are life! They become incorporate in man,
and penetrate his soul and life! Through them
the blind see; end can any man take away the
light ? Through them the lame walk; can any
man prove walking a delusion ? Through them
bad men are made good men; weak men are
made strong; who can overthrow the proofs ?
Jeans is an imposter, said the unbelieving
Pharisees to the man who was bom blind, bnt
whose eyes onr Lord opened. “ An impostor ?”
“Impossible.” “No.” “Yes—perhaps—ah!
surely yon must know, for you are wise men.'
But men and brethren tell me thi^: How conld
an impostor open my eyes? “Blessed impos
tor, more blessed imposition!” “Ah! I have
it: call truth falsehood ; call the power of God
the genius of Beelzebub; call blindness seeing;
call saving grace the exercise of human will to
the powers and infinities of human nature:
and then I have it! No matter. One thing is
sure, one thing is positive, one thing I know /
I went blind, I came seeing. I, who was blind,
noic see.”
Brethren combat the proofs os you will.
Reason against it; say that snch a thing is un
natural, unreasonable, impossible; what then ?
“Ho from thick films will plunge the uautl ray
And on the sightless eye-balls pour the day.”
So it is to-day! Men deny the doctrines of
Christ; they deny His divinity; they in
sult His holy Name; they despise His
sacraficial blood; and yet, before their eyes, in
their closest circles, Ho is opening the eyes of
the blind, and raising the dead! Through
faith in His name the sorrowful are rejoiced;
the weak are strengthened; the drunken are
sobered; the nnclean are purified.
Fidelity then to the doctrines of Christ and
His church is tho high lesson of this golden
hour. This my brethren, I repeat, is the
Ie.-Hun of my text. Press it to your hearts.
Write fidelity on your foreheads. Stand mam
fnlly up for Jesus! Learn in yonr high exalta
tion, the lesson of duty from those, onr
ancient brethren, who were captives! Learn
not to forget Zion. Make her your chief
joy; bniid up her walls by your fidelity
to her doctrines and worship, pave her
hallowed streets with the beaten gold of yonr
bTgaiftont Jive*. Lift her temple dome into
Over all Be? JlS-vunr united labors in her love,
deathless devotion, that the’ rr&geanse of your
worship may captivate ongelio sense, and please
Ihe honor of Jsbovah! Take down yonr long
silent harps from the drooping willows, sweep
over their stiffened strings your trembling fin
gers ; strike boldly for a song, and so march on,
and on, until, through clouds ascending, you
transfer your grand harmonies to that glorious
Temple not made with hands—eternal in tho
heavens. And then in the thunder burst of
corronation glory, in the grand finale of your
songs of strife, captivity and hope, yon shall
“Crown Him forever, crown Him Kieg of Kings;
Crown Bim forever, crown Him Lord of Lords;
Grown Him the glorious Conqueror cf Hell;
Grown Him the everlasting Prince of Peace;
Crown Him Jehovah, Jeeu, Lamb of God.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Amon!”
And the tidal wave of rapture shall detnge the
world.

cer, New York, *ay*:
We have received a sample of the “Century
Whisky” for analysis- We have conducted the
analysis with great care: tbero is uo trace of metal
in it, and nothing that should not come from the
fermentation and distillation of tho finest grains.
The bouquet i* natural, depending upon a minnte
quantity of volatile oil or ether. Wo have analyzed
many Whiskies, and have never before met with one
as strong us this; they are generally several de
grees below the government standard, this is
H.'ightly above. We are not a connoiseur in liquors,
but if purity and strength are desirable qualities
the “Century Whiskies” must stand pre-eminent.
Dr. J. M. CABNOCHAN, Health Officer of tho Port
of New York, says:
I have tried the “Century” Whiskies and find
them to be of very superior quality. I am happy to
recommend them, as I believe them to be entirely
free from deleterious or hurtful properties. The
analysis of Frof. Silliman is sufficient proof of their
great purity, and I believe that they will become
very popular Whiskies wherever they are once
used.

Prof. TILDEN, of Washington, D. G., says:
I have analyzed tho specimens of the “Century”
Whisky sent to mo with request to that effect. I
find no Fusel Oil and no trace of any deleterious
mineral or metallic substance. Tho liquor presents
no feature which does not belong to tho best
Whiskies, while it offers some unusual points of
excellence. Its color ia dark, owing to the preaonco
of Caramol, which undoubtedly improves its tone;
the taste is smooth and the bead good. The re
markable strength of this Whisky, coupled with the
unmistakable marks of age which aro to be per
ceived, its freedom from harmful principles too of
ten found in such liquors, and its natural bouquet,
justify mein pronouncing it both for medicinal and
domestic purposes a superior article.

The foregoing aro samplea selected at random
from several hundred testimonials in regard to the
parity and strength of the “CENTURY’ Whiskies.
A Trial is Respectfully Solicited.
