MoOEUBR. nmim: OCT, 7th, 1886.— Tlie most interesting event of late, to the people of this place, has been the annual meeting of the TJniversalist State Convention.\ It was quire largely attended by clergymen and laymen of the denomination, many of the latter being del- egates representing parishes from various parts\ v of the Sjtate. s At 9:30, a. m. Tuesday, the convention was called to order by its president, L. S. Freeman, Esq.,. of Midilleport, after which, the pastor of the church in, this place^ Rev. G-. B. Forbes, delivered an address of welcome; The exercises; which were va - ried and interesting, continued through three days, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, closing Thursday evening with a sermon by the Eev. Arthur Gv Rogers, of Hudson. A full; programme of the exercises show- ing the nature and character of the work done, would, no doubt, be interesting to <>-** -<—- - many of your readers, but I am restrained from furnishing ran one for insertion in your paper, lest I should be trespassing too largely upon your space. Aside from the more general business of the Convention Sermons, etc., there were reports of the Miasionery Board, Women's Centenary Association, Committee on Ed-1 ucatibn, Sunday Schools, State of the Church, Denominational Loyality, followed in most cases by discussions, which were interesting and instructive. On Wednesday a Mass Meeting was held in the town hall, in the interest of the St. Lawrence University. The meeting wag- addressed by Dr. Atwood, Rev. Dr. Fisfc and others. At the conclusion of the meet- ing it was announced that something over five thousand dollars bad been raised, which together with what had been previously subscribed, was so near the fifty thousand dollars requisate to endow the department of Letters and Science, that the whole am- ount could be safely assured. This was such cheering intel'igenoe to the people of Canton that they may well be pardoned for .cheering. Eor to them a school in their village, comparing favorable with any col- lege or university in the State* or'country, fa the ability to do effective Work in the edu- cation of their sons and daughters, is apprec- iated. That it is not more so in this county and all northern New York, is, to your cor- respondent, truly surprising. There is much, it is supposed, in the name of Har- vard and Yale, yet if we take in consider- ation the time of the founding of these col- leges as compared with the-St. Lawrence University, the latter- has produced more men that have ma^e their mark in life, or impressed themselves upon public consider- ation, than either or perhaps both of these much older institutions. It is the thorough mental and moral discipline, which leads to independent thought that men need in thia day and age. Is the public aware, that it can be obtained at so little cost, so near at home ? If my ttaie and your space would permit, I would like to speak of many other subjects brought to the consideration of the convention which were of great iteivst. to me; and no doubt, would be; also, to many :ofyour readers. But I can only little mw • than allude to them. The report on Re- forms, by the Eev. T. W. Illman, of New York, of itself alone, was worth going many miles to hear. The subjects of Temperance, Labor and Capital and Divorce, were thor- oughly handled. Considering the brief time allotted to him and die. necessity ol crowding MI of these subjects into one dis- course. It is evident that the TJniversalists; as a denomination, are taking high uud ad- vanced ground in regard to these great questions.of the hour, questions of paiu- mount interest, politically and morally to the people of this country. The report on Denominational Loyalty, by the Eev. J. F. Thompson, of Jersey City, is worthy of a much more extended, notice than is here allowable.. The trend of his remarks seemed equally applicable to any ond all denominations. The numerous withdrawals from one de- nomination to that of another, ot both cler- gy and laity, displays almost unpardonable ignorance of the tenet of the faith which the originally espous, or a lack of genuine sincerity, a trait, scarcely compatible with true christian charaetor. It would be unbe- coming pet-naps, to attempt to show, even if E. E GROCERY AT PALMER'S \EW CROCKERY STORE he knew, where the fault lay, whether with minister or member, yet with the amazing divergency of the lines of unadulterated Calvanism and Armineunism, it has become surprisingly easy, of late to glide from one into the other. Is it piosalyting on the pari of the minister, or the desire ofpor ularity on the part of the member? The criticism may be too severed—may be even unjust, yet the indulgence of this practice by the church, is evidently losing the respect which it might otherwise command. The road fbr the liberal Christian element to embrace orthodoxy is made even more easy. The late new ueparture or reversion and .softening down of creeds, is a sort of an inclined plane, or toboggan slide erected whereby Jfniversalists Tind' other liberal christians may be smothery and easily wafted into' the bosom of orthodoxy. The school boy in sliding down hill, soon finds by ob- servation it is no farther up a hill though more difficult, than down itf. So the world will observe that the policy persued by our orthodox friends in absorbing liberal Chris- tianity, rather than combatting it, if wrong makes the distance from them to us the same though more difficult perhaps, as from us to them. Steel, if tempered too high, crumbles and breaks—so the creeds of former ages, tempered too high, are breaking and crum • Ming away. As the elements are gradually softnine the granite rook into dust 3o the softning, and refining influences of God's, love YOD WILL FIND JUST WHAT YOU WANT.
