there is a Benson and a tlmo a tlmo to speak ,
There nro those who alfcct to Ignore news
papers. Tlioy dismiss thorn from attention ai
unworthy their lofty notlco. lint newspapers
are ono of the institution * of the ago. The
loading newspapers of this country are mar-
vein of energy , command lirst-rnto talent , and
have great in if nonce. Along this longitude runs
tliQ hinge of the two parts of thin continent.
Atsoino point upon it nnd probable here , for
this is doitlnod to bo a great city , will by and
by lie minted the largest newspaper , most
representative , widely circulate ) 1 and Inlhion
tlal in America. Tlio boy Is father of the mtn.
Tlio present importance of our newspapers
in partly found in what they are to lin. Al
ready they compara well with nny , In cities > > f
this HO. Ills to-day worth the while of any
onotogivo them attention , their information ,
suggestions , criticisms ! also in turn , tu do
anything wo can to help correct thorn , when
wobollovo them in error , as well as lend them
our aid and endorsement in every right en
deavor. The people may corro'.t and help the
papers , as well as the papers inform nnd
guide the people , if both will FO allow. .The
papers of this city are a constant nnd goner-
ons help to the churches , which should always
bo acknowledged with duo grntltndo. Thit
discourse is in the spirit of the ubovo words.
Kiipoclully is there friendliness to-night In
this pulpit , toward the paper , whoso article IH
to bo referred to , and appreciation of its ver
satile ability , wide mofnlnoHS and uniform
good nature. And there In no Intended -
od personality , Lait Sunday morning. In
a loading editorial of The Republican , making
comments on n funeral somewhere and the
clergyman's remarks , occurred thli sentence ,
as pith and mibatanco of the whole , nnd for
which I Bupposo the rest was written"duty iu
the promises Is plain. Sunday after Sunday
wo lUton to ministerial denunciations of un
belief , and unqualified assertions Unit the
man who doubt ? I * dimmed ami when the
mini in dead , and his denouncers stand above
his collin fapo to face with the great terror
and mystery of dissolution ihoy recant , nnd
wltth beautiful charity consign his faults
tuob.ieurlty and hia soul to lioavon. " Clergy
men and editors nro not expected always to
ngreo , and minlstom may bo , as often , the
ones In error , but that sentence la so far from
correct and on so grave a thoino I thought It
"tlmo to spoak. "
I do not HOQ liow ono of nvorngo religious
intelligence and canner could wrlto that sen
tence , especially IIH tha central chief ono nf n
loading article. It is not true at either end erIn
In the middle , bul untrue In every part and all
through. If handed mo nt random , I should
say the only way to harmonl/.o it , with belief
that the writer meant to toll the truth is to
suppose the "we" used in n very editorial
sense ; that the writer never goo ? to hoar tlio
orthodox minister whota preaching ho is try-
I ing to describe , only perhaps occusionly hear
ing ono of thnso proachorn , who often repres
ent us , as chlelly occupied in denouncing un
believers , and saying "tho man wh- doubts
Is damned , " and therefore ho honestly be
lieves a chief part of the preaching , from
the 70,001) evangelical pulp ts of Amoricn
alone is fairly summed in that statement ami
I could only account for tha last part of the
sentence , that nt the funeral of the man wu
yesterday consigned to damnation , wo "ro-
cant" deny our creed and our own worda , and
"send his soul straight to heaven , " on the
ground , the writer almost uovorgoos to a fun
eral , nnd when bo does stands outside in the
yard witli m my others while the service POOH
on. I say , that , or Its like , is the bp.it theory
I could oiler though it is hardly tlio informa
tion on which to justify RO grave a public
chargo. The unbelief docribod plainly doe *
not refer to conduct but to disbelief , c. y ,
in the existence of a God
the truth or inspiration of tin
Bible , tlio condition of salvation , &c
und the unbeliever is presumed sincere , and
not n trlllor or hypocrite. The charge Is thai
Sunday after Sunday such unbelief ladonounc
od and the man sincerely holding it declaroi
dimmed. Then , what is a grayer clmrgi
against the minUtor at the funeral , ho prove ;
himself hoyoiid question cither a weakling n
hypocrite by publicly recanting , denying tin
solemn assertions oi yesterday , involving do
id ill of what are usually regarded sumo of th
moat radical truths of religion. The charg
also lies agalin > t the gro.it moss of chiirclrgoui |

Ills case that Mr. Butler -foiled to "recant , '

The first part of tlio statement la meant t <

amounts to and what is the inferred quality

teachings false und himself a hypocrite. Tin
answer must bo in the facts , past nnd present
Years ago it was common to have n funora
discourse and for the clergyman to close witl
a brief review of the deceased's character ant
express opinions about his future state , witl

ENGM8H liUTHKUAN.
At the English Lutheran church Sun
day morning the following oxcollon
sorinon was preached by the pastor , Rev
J. 8. Dotwilor :
THE SEIIMOX.
" " "No Sorvin
"Worship units something" or
Without Socrtfico , " 2 Sam 21:21. : "Neither wil
I offer burnt offering * unto the Lord of tha
which rest mo nothing , "
King David had bo n guilty of n great sin
because once when ii.fl.ited with prldo and
filled with protumptl > n ho was moved to tab
n census of the people. Ho proposed to number
bor the people at a time wlien ho was \erj
rich , great , and in every wny prosperous , Ht
WHS lorgotting God nnd beginning to dopom
on himself and the might of his army. I'oi
this presumption nnd pride h ) was punished
The people wern visited with a deadly tiostll
nnco , nnd David saw many of his people dlo ,
In ouo day 70,000 strong , able bodio linen
the very ones on whom la\Id so much rolled
dud.
David was greatly alarmed ho saw bin mis
take confessed his Bin , nnd prnyod to Got
to stay the plague , In answer to his pray ei
the prophet Gad was sent with instruction !
to David , "Goup , roar nn altar unto the Ion
In tbn thrcaulng floor of Arnunnh the Jobu
Kite. " David quickly Bet out to obey. Hi
went to the place pointed out , found tin
owner , and proposed to buy the thrushinf
floor of Araunati for a Biiaco on which ti
build an idtar nnd worship God. Araun.il
felt himself HO honored by this \islt of tin
king , he couldn't think of taking anythl- "
and very generously refused to take anyt ug
offering thn ground to the king for not ) ng
and tu addition giving him oxen and woo > fo
the sncrlflce.
All this kindness David courteously bu
promptly declined , Raying , "Nay , but I wll
surely buy it of theo at n price ; noitho
will I oiler burnt offerings unto IIP
Lord of that which doth cost mo nothing.1
So David bought the threshing tloor and tin
oxen for CO shoklcs of silver.
Thus you BOO how D.ivld would not worshl ]
at another's expense. Ho was going to wor
ship the Lord by n sacrifice and there could b
no sacrifice without coat , for alt sacrilic
moans the surrender of a lower thing for i
higher. There must bo the devotion of one ii
bolialf of another. Hence there is suggestei
the theme , "worship owls something ; " "m
Borvl o without nacrilico. " This thoino was ;
frequent ono with Christ. Ho repeated ! ;
talked about cross bearing , self denial and th
Hko saying tlut who over would come afto
him , and ba hla disciple must take up u cros
must deny himself. He ppoko of this na ,
necessary element of chtUtian Borvtco am
gave unusual emphasis to the thought by nl
luding to himself as an example , particular !
upon one occasion , when word was brought t
him that certain Greeks were stand ! ' g ther
in the crowd nud wanted to "aoo Jesus. " H
said "Kxcopt a kernel of corn fall into th
trround and di" it abidoth alone. But if it di
Ft bringcth forth much fiult. " . Ilo was th
kernel of corn to bo aivon to the ground hi
life was to bo surrendered to a greater gooi
than it could accomplish by its witholiling
Ilo was giving u service to God by his deat !
that his life could not render.
A similar illustration is found on a lowc
scale. In all forms of natural rollgio
there is seen something of th
same Idea. The very heathen had an ide
that they could only serve their gods rightl
by a giving of some kind. Kvory whore w
may see bieedirp vjctims and smoking nttan
Iu every 040 of the world and iu every coin
try under heaven you BOB men making the !
Borvico to consist largely in a giving of aom
kind. Nature prompted a service that coi
lumethlng until the mother throw the bil :
into tbo fiery arms of Molock and taught he
son that th" higest service was to give liimfio
to bo crushed by the heavy wheels of Jiif
gornaut. How often is the Christian sham-
by the heathen or the worldling. It costs
vast amount of treasure to serve heathen god
The expense attached to heathenism eoems li
credulous to some , but it is a truth that almoi
fabulous sums sro annually expanded. 1
servo the devil it coats iimiicso sums of mono
and thousands of precious lives evciy year.
Much leas should chilstiaus seek oxemptic
from coat If our religion is worth anything , I
na it must coi-t ua something. To enjoy it v
must pay for it , Sacrifice becomes a cond
tiou of benefit. The boy that earns a dolli

Mnlcsnml Matrimony.
New York Journal ,
A young man from Nebraska lisa
achieved sudden fame nnd nt < toriety by
running off with his young and pretty
aunt and the boat iiiulo team on the farm
of his confiding undo. The undo , it ta
reported , is inconsolable over the loss of
the mules , which were the most beautiful
in the county. Ilo can find another aunt
for his truant nephew , but the loss of the
mules is irreparable. The nephews of
western uncles should bo moro consider-
ato. If they must elope with their aunts
they should not stampede the cattle on
the ranch at the same time unless they
have a clear right to do so. Good mules
are scarce in the west and especially in
Nebraska , while aunts nro as numerous
as politicians.
