CJVSBAI. COXGltEGATIOlfAL MOTEA. The! Karanangh cnmp-ineeting std eon-tinues to isiiMM in point of interest and at tendance. During the past week the crowds were much larger than before, 'each atrrice twins; well attended. Every moraine from 0 to 10 o'clock meetings are held, at which 1 those la attendance are iorited to (ire their religious experience, and renew their rows.

Erery afternoon at 2 o'clock children meeting are at which 4118 Ifarj Helm presides. Thia it one of the most Interesting branches of the serrios, and a large number of ehfldren are in attendance erery day, and Bomber of converts hare been made. On Batarday the services were particularly -fa- terestisg. In the morning Dr. 8crusgs, of Uempbia, preached, and ia the afternoon Dr.

klahon, of Mississippi, occupied the pulpit. At night Ber. D. TV. Bcbertson, of Lagrange, officiated.

All of the sermons were interesting and instructive, being listened to with deep attention. On yesterday the crowd was by odds the largest one of the year. The people teemed to realise that it was the last Sunday, and poured in from erery direction. The trains from this city were literally packed, and, on account of the lack of railroad facilities, a number were disappointed. The trains both from Lexington and Cincinnati also brought fa large crowds.

The scene around the station at Beards' was a busy one. All day constant stream of people poured in and out of the Can, and the platform was crowded as well as the roads leading to the park. These composed but a small portion of the audience, however, as the country people for miles around were in attendance with their families, and remained until night. The crowd was estimated at from Are to six thousand, and the best order prevailed all day. At each service the pavilion wss filled to overflowing, and many persons, not particularly religious, wandered around in the tempting; shade of the trees.

During the interval for dinner everything was activity. Tables were spread on. almost every spot of ground that would bold a basket, and every one enjoyed a plentiful repast. The services were unusually interesting. At 1 1 o'clock ia the morning.

Dr. Slahoa, of Memphis, took the pulpit and preached a sermon nearly two hours in length, full of strong points and arguments. Despite the vast crowd the deepest attention was paid to the discourse throughout. Ia the afternoon Her. H.

C. Morrison, of this city, conducted the services, and preached a sermon from Mark 3, 10. He covered the grounds of the text fully and clearly, and held the attention of bis auditors throughout. At night Dr. Scruggs, of Columbus, dilivered a discourse full of interesting points.

The large crowd, except those who arrived on the trains, remained until the close of the services. Among the other ministers on the grounds, who took part in the exercises, were Bishop Kavanaugb, Kev. Benj. T. Karens ugh, D.

and Rev. W. B. Kavrtnaugb, three brothers, all noted oreacUers. A sacramental service will be held this morning, and the camp-meeting i will close until nextAugust.

tie present season has been the most successful since the establishment of the camp-grounds; a larger number of parsons attended than erer before. THE MUTE SERMON. Bfr. JOH3 Tuasxa delivers a. discourse TO DEAF AND DUMB C050HE0ATI05.

At Christ's church yesterday, at 8 r. nineteen ladies and twenty-tbree gentlemen fathered to bear and see Rer. Job Turner, he only deaf and dumb minister in the loath. Dr. Turner is of medium height, neary built, with florid face, bright eyes, thin gray hair, and about fifty years old.

He Joined the Episcopal church at Hartford, Oonn.t in 1877, and was ordained a minister by Bishop Whipple in 1880, and Is a general missionary, baring no regular church, but preaches throughout the South. There are only three mute Episcopal preachers ia the United States, one in the East, one in the West and Dr. Turner for the South; he liree at Staunton, Va. Rer. Samuel Craik entered the railing with Dr.

Turner and interpreted everything. The service began with the scripture lee-eon, "Let AU the Earth Keep Silent," Mr. Craik reading from the Bible and Dr. Turner telling It with his fingers. During the prayer very few knelt, and many repeated tbe prayer.

Tbe ninty-eigth psalm waa then read. Following this the ninth chapter of Deuteronomy, "Hear, oh Israel," was read, during which Dr. Turner signaled the congregation to sit down, which they smil-toflj did. After reading "I is a good thing to giro thanks unto the Lord," also from James, "Go to now je rich men and bowl," etc, the second prayer was girea and the sermon began, Rer. Bam pel Craik reading from manuscript and Rer.

Job Turner gesticulating. The following is TBB SERMON Txxr Mm Lead to the Rock that is Uigkor than I.

Wbea oppressed by sin and fear, realising one's own fallen eondltioo, man questions often the willingness of Chris to save so ninf ul a creature. If He is a willing Saviour to save any, oh.

At Broadway Methodist church yesterday morning, in the absence of Dr. Messick, Dr. Burrows preached from tbe words, ''And they said unto her, Surely we will return with thee unto thy people." Ruth 1., 10. "Here are three widowor" ho said, "in one group, embracing and weeping. One old, two are young.

They hare traveled far, and standing on the border of with its heathen god be mash, before thetu is the land of Israel with its true God. Tbe aged widow is an Israelite; tbe younger widows are Moabitea, trained in its faith. VTby do they pause? Ten years ago Elimelech had moved from Bethlehem, Judeah, to Moab, thinking to better his condition. He died. His two sons.

Mahlon and Chflion. married Moabitisb, idolatrous maidens, and the sons died. This weeping widow was now returning Jewish borne, poor and child-leas. Too many in this age, aa in all ages. have too little regard for pious surroundings in their selection of a home or business, thinking more of how to get rich.

It is better to have little among pare and pious associations than to have much among vicious influences Naomi decided to return, and her two daughters-in-law bad to make their decision. They bad learned much of pious Naomi. Ruth says: "Thy God shall be my God." Naomi tells them plainly she has nothing. God's service is often empty of worldly roods. et Dotn inclined to go with ber.

How many have said this in effect of their own pious mothers 1 Orpab wept, kissed her mother-in-law, and went back to Moab wont a wsy like the rich young man from Jesus. Are. any you like berf Look at that lost womanf This is ber last mention. Ruth, too, decides, and wisely. Nothing in all literature like tbe words of Ruth's decision: "Entreat me not to leave thee, nor to return from following after thee, for whither tnou goest I will go, and where thou lodgest I will lodge; thy people shall beny people, and thy God my God; where tbou dieet I will die, and there will I be buried.

The Lord do so to me, and more also if aught but death part thee and me." Thia is tbe decision my wandering brothers standing on the border land are called to make this day. You mast go to God or to There is nogettinw near to Jeus but by coming. Thia heroine decided expecting severe trials. She foand trials, as you will. She found bet ber things, as you She found a rich, loving husband.

She was the great great grandmother of David, aud from ber came Jesus, our (Saviour. There are many and mighty reasons whj; yoa should decide this day. SAVIXU. SISSEItS. CHRIST'S WORK OF RXCONCILIATIOX, AS VIEWED XV DR.

WEAVER. At the Cheataut-street Baptist church yesterday morning. Dr. Wearer had a large audience. Taking for a text: "For if.

wbea we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son; much more being reconciled we shall be sared by his life. And not only so, but we Joy in Ood through our Lord Jesus Christ." He said: "Ia God's plan of salvation, Christ all aad in all. In man's plan of salvation, Christ is scarcely recognised, In all. ages this has been so, Christ is the exponent, tbe agent of God. We know nothing of God outside of Christ.

The world was; mad by Christ. Christ was the angel of the covenant of the Jewish dispensation. Christ is now the power of Bis people. He will be more in tba milloninum, Tbe simple thought of tbe text is Chrbt reconciling by His death and sarins as by Bis Ufa, All the eared are reconciled. All the reconciled are not sared.

The first thought of ehe text is, that all sinners are i-ecoociled to God by the death of Christ. All are sinners by Adam and by action. Tbe Bible says. 'As la Adam all died. Christ died for all without condition.

Be- Is the Bariour of all men, for erery man that ever lived, or will lire, earth; whosoever will, may accept the -ransom.

DR. PRITCBARD'S BOMB. nxsiaxATiow or KASToa or BROADWAY BAPTIST CHURCH.

At the close of Dr. Pritchard's sermon yesterday mornimg at the Broadway Baptist church, he read his resignation as pastor. This was a great surprise. Tbe congregation sat for a while seemingly stunned at tbe news; some thought it was a mistake, that they bad not beard aright. Dr.

Pritcbard said tbe health of bis family would not permit him to remain this climate. He wee highly pleased with this city and his people, and it would be a cross to depart. Two churches called him to become He accepted tbe call from Wilmington, N. C. Dr.

Pritcbard took his text from Exodus 8, 11, and said; la the text the Sabbath la styled tbe Sabbath of tbe Lord, thy Ood. Imtahoti, 11 Ood speaka of It as My holy day, while la the New Testament it is honored with the title of tbe Lord's day. The principle here enunciated ia, that in the original grant of time Ood retained one seventh of it as His own, lie surely has the right to prescribe the manner In which it should be observed. The two general laws he baa given for Its observance are, first, that it shall be a day of rest from all secular labor, and, secondly, that it shall be a day specially devoted to the service and worship of Ood. blx days shalt thou labor aau ail uiy wort; out the seventn is tne nao-bath of tbe Lord, thy Ood: in it thou analt not do any work, Ac.

This law relates to all men. According to what seems to be the plain meaning of the law, it ia not keeping the Sabbath for bar-rooms, cigar stores, soda fountains, concert halls and beer irardens to do a thriving business on this day; for printers to set type or editors to write leaders; for merchants to post books, or for men to travel on business on this day. Nor ia it keeping- this day right for railroad companies to run trains on this day, or tbe Government to allow tne mail to be carried on this day. If it be said that the public interest will receive detriment by tbe detention of the mail, I have only to say that the Lord of the Sabbath is the governor of thia world, and no interest, whether public or private, can suffer damage for obeying the laws He has ordained for the good of His creatures. There is a profound significance la the remark of Sir William Blackstone, "that a corruption of morals usually follows a profanation of tbe Sabbath.

Of 1,653 who were committed to Auburn butts prison, up to 1840. 0o0 were wetenaen who knew no Sabbath, and twenty-nine only had kept that day. Of 200 admitted to tbe State prison oC Mtssachusetts la one year eighty-nine had lived in the habitual violation of the Sabbath. An individual of England who had charge of 100,000 prisoners during his life said that nineteen-twentieths utterly diaregared this holy day. when, some years ago, a strong move was made to have the Crystal Palace thrown open on Sunday, 040 of the most eminent physicians of London protested against the movement in the most solemn manner as dangerous to tbe moral and physical health of the public.

I will now submit the testimony, not of ministers, but of statesmen, philosophers and men of the world of wisdom and experience on tbe point at issue. Adam Smith, the founder of political economy, says: "The Sabbath as a political institution, independently of its divine origin, is of inestimable value." Lord Maoauley: "If Sunday bad not been observed as a day of rest during tbe last three centuries I have not the smallest doubt that we should nave been at thia moment a poorer and less civilised people than we are." "There is no religion without worship," says Count Mont-alambert, "and there is ao worship without the Sabbath." Sir Walter Scott- says: "Oive the world half of Sunday and you will find religion has no stronghold on the other." Daniel Webster: "The longer I live the more highly do I estimate the Christian Sabbath and the more grateful do I feel toward those who impress its Importance on tbe community." Hen. Abram Murdoch, E. B. Phillips, E.

O. Barnev. J. Lenard, L. Ruth, George A.

Merrill, J. P. Parley and J. M. Robinson, all of whom are Presidents or Superintendents of railroads of large experience, give their testimony against running railroads on the Sabbath to carry the mail, or Indeed for any purpose whatever.

The other part of the command requires this day to be devoted to spiritual uses. We may not gratify ourselves by the study of art or general literature, nor by spending It in social visiting or bv indulging our appetites until languor and stupidity render us unlit for spiritual enjoyment. Tbe old custom of cold dinner on Sunday was a good one; it prevented the Sunday dinner from becoming a feast, and allowed tbe servants a better opportunity of spending the day In the service of Ood. A proper respect for xi and his people demands that we should be just, and to go beyond that is dangerous to our spiritual enjoyment. Besides by such display ia the house of Ood, many of the poor, who can afford only plain attire, are kept away front church.

It is the duty of all good citizens, certainly of all professing Christiana, to attend church on tbe Sabbath day. How shall we make our children love and revere the Sabbath? The first step toward such a result must be the practical reverence we show the Sabbath ourselves. Example not only speaks louder than words, but sooner than words. In seeking to make our children love tbe Sabbath, there are two conditions which we should not fail to observe. We must remember that they are children.

They should be required to attend the devotions of tbe family, go to Sunday-school and church; they should be kept from sinful sports and songs, but we should not prescribe for them a system of rules that would make the day a buruea to tnem. Lord BoUngbcoJie tells us that the Sabbath became utterly distasteful to him because when a boy his good father used to make him read Hr. Martin's 119th sermon on 110th Psalm. The sanctuary of home is the place where our little ones must be taught to love the Sabbath and the Lord of the Sabbath. We should read to them.

Thia generation has seen a new era in book-making. We have now a distinct literature for children. Some of the beat nUnds of the world are devoting themselves to their entertainment, and the best of all children's books are on religious subjects. There are papers, pictures, song-books, full of tbe gospel, full of missionary stories which may be read to them. There is the Pilgrim's Progress with its wonderful stories, and above all, there is the good old Bible.

There ia nothing in Robinson Crusoe nor Gulliver Travels nor the Arabian Nights' Entertainment that caa compare in facinating power over the minds of children with the story of the creation of Adam and Eve, Noah and tbe flood, Jacob aud Joseph. atones and Joshua, Ruth, David, Solomon, Daniel, of John the Ha titbit, and especially the man Christ Jesus. And we can talk to them In thia dar of relixion and tbe Bible. A child that is too young or too little to give attention to a book will at once be caught and held in rapt interest by the natural tone of the voice in cooversatioa. Wast stories of toe Bible containing lessons that will stay with them all their Uvea may interest our little onea? We caa tell them of tbe love of Jesus, of sin.

of our need of a Savior, etc. And then think of tbe interest of a heaven to child its angels and redeemed spirits, its gates 4C peart and streets of gold, its purity and kind sea, wither already some of the family have gone and where all hope to meet at last. Let us alL old and young, saint and sinner, keep thia day noiy, tnat we may inneru tne messing promised by the Lord in Isaiah 68: If tbou shait call tbe saboata a delight, etc RELIGIOUS NOTES.

Tbo Inquest Held Yesterday aad a Veraiet ef Willful M.rder Relnmea. Coroner Miller held an inquest yesterday over the body of Richard Lording, who was killed by John Lore at a picnic in Brooks' woods. Saturday afternoon. The testimony adduced at the inquest pats a different light upon the affair altogether, and instead of tbe killing being done in self-defense, it transpires that it was nothing but a cold-blooded murder. It seems that Love, who came to tbe picnic from New Albany, was acting tbe part of a desperado in the most approved ruffian style, knocking down every one who crossed him right and left.

He kept drinking aty day, and in the afternoon became more disorderly than ever. For some reason or other nothing was said or done by way of interference until about 6 o'clock, when Lore got into a quarrel with some old gentleman, whose name has not been learned. As be was about seventy or eighty years old, and very infirm, Lurding interposed, and told Love that he should not annoy the old man so. This made tbe young rough very angry, and be demanded by what right he interfered. Tbe other, wishing to aroid a quarrel, remarked that be wanted to get into no disturbance, but that it was a shame to molest so old a man.

Saying this, be turned to leave, and as he did so Love shot him the back. Tbe assassination was a cowardly one, and, as a matter of course, public feeling is somewhat excited. A verdict of willful murder was returned. Lore refused to say anything more about the tragedy yesterday than that it was done in self efenae. The day for bis examining trial 11 not yet been sot.

A WOMAX'8 CAPTIVE. Mad. Buckley Captures aa Alleged Calebee-thief en Her Premises. it was almost midnight last night when the people in tbe vicinity of Fourth and Green streets were aroused by hearing a voice crying for the polios. An officer was not at band, nor did the continual shouting and knocking against the lamp-post bring one.

No one knew what tbe matter was; only a man appeared at a second-story window in bis night-clothes and shouted for tbe police. By this time a large crowd bad collected and tbe pry for police became general. Tbe man again 5 appeared at the window and told them to ran around to the alley leading to Green street. At this moment Private Watchman Crawford came up. and, followed by tbe crowd, he ran around to the alley, and there found a woman waiting with a man in charge that she had captured on ber premises.

It proved to be Madame F. Buckley, the Fourth -street dressmaker, and, strange to say, the captive was a young man named Joseph P'Brien, who was formerly a clerk in Xugent's and also Brile's establishment. Madame Buckley turned her prisoner over to the officer, saying that the man bad been stealing ber chickens. She said that he bad already taken several fowls from ber coop, and that be came baclc after more; that she was watchiug him and caughtejim. O'Hrien was taken to Central station and locked up.

He appeared to be under the influence of liquor, and his friends say that he was familiar with the place, and waa only looking for a place to lie down and sleep. A MSBAK THIEF. Be Cratehfield Steals ftlO Worth of Clothes aad Then Joins the Army. Bob Crutchfleld, colored, was arrested by Detective Tiller and Officer Wilson yesterday, and jailed on tbe charge of stealing about $40 worth of clothing from Mr. B.

W. Johnson. Tbe robbery was effected at Johnson's boarding house, No. 815 West Chestnut street, Saturday morning, and by 11 o'clock Crutchfleld had pawned tbe clothes and enlisted in the United States array, at the recruiting office on Market street. The case was given to Detective Tiller, who found tbe clothes in a pawn shop, and shortly afterwards meeting the thief on the streets marching around in his new uniform, he and Officer Wilson put him under arrest.

Crutchfleld is a recent arrival from Cincinnati. An Enterprising Keatncktaa. Mr. Geo. W.

Anderson, of Taylorrrille, arrived in the city yesterday on bis way home from Gunnison City, and stopped over Sunday with Dr. R. B. Gilbert, on West Walnut street. Mr.

Anderson bought a large tract of land adjoining Gunnison about three roan ago at $130 per acre. The city has now built up thickly to the edge of his land and be baa been offered fabulous prices for his real estate, but instead of selling in bulk he has just laid it off in town lota aad streets and given it the name of North Gunnison, and by selling off a few lots for building manufactories and residences, and with the comple-. tion of several railroads that are aow under way. Mr. A.

will soon find himself proprietor of a large section of a flourishing city. A Fighting Fessale. Alice Casey, a female slugger, who liree on Washingon street, between Preston and Floyd, concluded last night to dean out everybody in the neighborhood. She inaugurated a general knock-down and drag-out, in which she was apparently having everything her own way, when Officer Joe Boaen-berg put in an appearance end escorted the brave Alice to the First-street police station. Alice gave bond for her appearance at tbe City Court this morning, and was allowed to depart.

She had not been absent long, how-erer, when she was again arrested on a peace warrant and locked ap. Thus fm "bravery suppressed. The rasrais Hill Fireworks. Mr. Fapendick, manager of Pbcenlx H01 Park, yesterday received a dispatch from Payne saying it would be impassible for them to give the display of fireworks oa next Friday night, as material for making the articles was exhausted, owing to a pressure of business.
