Juvkxile Education-, Pulpit Preaching,
&(-••—It is often remarked of a system or theo
ry,—it is quite fine upon pa'per, hut fads in prac
tice &e.
Nothing is more einiueutly true as applied to
some of onr fine-spun, modern theories of educa
tion that .propose schemes of mculcation aud for
mation utterly inconsistent, w ith the acknowledged
degeneracy of man ; and. w hat at first often sur-
prises.-rtho new fangletl doctrine's of mere moral
suasion, arc advocated in practice by men of holy
orders—(and of course, philosophic mind) men
who uroaelt, and 'those clmy it is to deflr.re aiu!
leach the corruption of human nature, tho invi
tations, warnings, threntinngs and judgments of
J'.hoyah,—the rewards and punishments of the
future state. Such ntcu are uot uufrequeutly
found advocating in word ab'» by example, the
employment of moral suasion only—with con
trasts of the two great priucip'es Virtue and Vico
—mere appeal to the moral stuse •*. mid this is
declared to he fully effective in any grade of im
provement, or deterioration of moral or intellect
ual characte-. If this he-right, there are wrong
and foolish, fifty express declarations and precepts
of inspiration, all ancient philosophy, aud all
that practice that has often “ in the midst of a
crooked perverse generation,” made many good
and useful men of subjects w hose whole course
jouoe seemed incorrigibly perverse and inclined
to evil coiitiiiunily. Men repudiating the doc
triue of forceful, compulsory measures, or who
“ spare the roa,” tltot gltin other matters, prompt,
decided, cuergetic and effteieut, tire often found
rearing a posterity to he mere clogs, blots and
blurs in society ; thus, instead of accelerating the
approach of millennial iunoceoec, actually and
criminally retarding our progress to its consum
mation. From the sacred desk we hear little .or
nothiug of the native diguiiy of man which the
presence of this. icuowned moral sense would
indicate, hut on the subject of our spiritual alien
ation. we are told much of the horrors of tho pit,
much of the beauty of holiness, aud of the de
formity of sin.
A temporizing, man-fearing, declnimer, says
but little of the minuiia of immediate motive or
cause, nr of present impulse : hut, ill dread of
vagabonds, rakes, spendthrifts, wilful bankrupts,
common scolds, sy cophants, talc-hearers, equivo-
cators. moral end political hypocrites,—he trims
around, iueiudiiig ALL under the cqmmon curse,
spite of good works, unless ittdecd so converted
to God. and by God, asto feel themselves entire
ly ucw and different creatures having a realizing
sense of tlie divine presence continually abiding
with them: thus causing the reuegado aud tuth-
less violator of peace aud good order, to lull and
console himself (as he very often doe>) that if he
he d.intucd. the curse wdl also he experienced by
multitudes noiv acknowledged to he much his
superior). It is intruded by these last remarks
to censure the bigotry, enthusiasm aud folly of
any preacher, deacon or layman, who really or
affectedly holds in disesleem any man’s morality,
because that man iu the counsels of his own
will, remains or determines to remain out Kf
church communion. For the world’s sake, for
God’s sake, morality in all its details should be
constantly insisted upon; and the reverse contin
ually denounced. » hether found in siuuer or pro
fessed saint, iu pauper, laborer, or nabob, in
scribe, pharisee or publican. Christ did thus,
aud so do all his true and faithful followers.
Believing religion to be two fold iu its object,
—the welfare of society in this world, and our
souls’ felicity iu tho future state, the course above
alluded to, of rejecting bread, because the whole
loaf cannot always he attained, is thought to sa
vour of a degree of fatuity hcariug uo affinity to
the general character aud deportment of many
who iu all the other relations of life, prove them
selves to.be practical philosophers aud heuevolcut
brethren of the liuinau family. It is believed that
in every church, there are very qjatny strictly vir
tuous and pious persons, at all times and places
“ doing as they would be done to;” but to their
number are frequently j ined others who. multi
ply their offences by the siu of hypocrisy: And
with these are often seen some who offend their
neighbors in v ord aud deed, being without large
and elevated view s of God nud religion by reason
of ignorance and intellectual ohtusily which could
ami v,an-d be quickly removed or^"ameliorated,
were professors aud preachers as anxious and
active to that purpose as they are iu making pros
elytes and in increasing their uuinericut strength.
It is too much the case that leaders in church
matters, have iu many instuuccs, about the same
use for the addition of au humblo saint to their
number, as a demagogue has for another adher
ent,—not for any Kenuiuo love or fellow feeling;
hut for mere self aggrandizement, lu mauy
church/ s, as in the liceutious world, are secu tiie
same aristocracy, the same caucusing', the same
acting of t**e powerful and presuming few, with
out reference or deference to the opiuiou of hum
ble men wise, virtuous and pious as the best, lull
destitute of tho retinue, the fine linen aud purple.

the supremacy af mind, high,.noble, cultivated,
vir'uous mind that wherever found, an honest

to cherish aud support, to the exclusion of dull
blockheads, cunning knaves aud designing dem

scattered thoughts aud reflections, hiutmg at some
proper ineatts for promoting moral education and

course of the recent revivals of our Saviour’s
blessed religion, vve heard men blindly zealous iu
the great master’s cause, profess perfect iudiffer-
once as to any of the modern institutions such
as temperance societies,—saying that tho religion
of the lord jesds is superseding them. What
is this hut fanaticism, feeling, acting, aud speak

a dispensation of mere grace, or iu an ideal 'some
thing, dispensing with fasts, restraints, ceremo
