gfc ' ; ; - r; Startling Sermon by tbe Bishop or London. The following sermon is clipped from an exchange. We cannot affirm that it was preached, but hesitate not to say it ought to have been preached not only in Westminster Abbey but everywhere, and often : Text?"Go to uow, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Behold the hire of the laborers who have reaped down vour fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth; and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabbath. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth and been wanton : ye have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just, and he doth not resist you."?James 5:1,4,5,6. Fellow Citizens?The text which I have just read you, and from which I shall preach the last sermon as bishop that I shall ever deliver from this pulpit, is one which is probably as unfamiliar to you comfortable well-to-do people as it is familiaT to all those who since it was originally penned have tolled and suffered for humanity. Although it is read sometimes in the ordinary course of our church service, yet, judging by your conduct, your eaTs have been deaf to its terrible denunciations. From the days when 1 was an humble curate until now, J had a large and varied experience of cathedrals, churches, preachers and sefmfOns, I have never yet heard a discourse based on these words, and I cannot learn from any of my brother bishops or priests that they have used them, or heard them so used. I can see by your uneasy demeanor that you are asking yourselves why, on this Christmast day, when in accordance with custom, I should be preaching smooth things to you, I should be mad enough to offend your delicate susceptibilities by quoting the saying of one of the common people?words written eighteen centuries aco?;which might have done very well then, but which cannot possibly be applied to you and your class today ; you who come here, clad in purple and fine linen, who, some of you, live in king's houses, who fare delicately every day, and who consider that you have fulfilled every moral obligation when you have dropped a coin in the collection box, before you step into your carriages to be driven to your luxurous home. It is because I believe that not only James, but Jesus Christ Himself, if He could stand in my place to-day would hurl these words at you with a force and a passion of which we, in the nineteenth century, have but litte conception. Not as a bishop, but as a man, I repeat them to you, hardly hoping that they may touch your hearts, but more, as a justification for my new and strange position. For years I have been one of you. My home has been not where Christ's home was, with the masses, but with classes. I haye an abundance of this world's goods. I have been a dignitary of a church which is the church of the rich, and not the church of the poor. Without a protest I have mix ea in society wuu mei^ uuu wuujeu whom Christ would have denounced as bitterly as He denounced the scribes and Pharisees. In the house of lords I have sat silently side by side with whoremongers and and adulterers, and silently have I welcomed as my personal friends highborn women ?some of whom no decent workingman would allow his wife or daughter to associate. I have seen among you, spreading like a canker, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life, and instead of reproving you, as Christ would have done, I have taken refuge in generalities, and have not dared to denounce your individual sins. All this time there has been going on around me, in this huge city and throughout the land, the surging, toiling life of humanity? the sorrow, the suffering, the poverty, the disease, the sin and the shame which I realized but dimly, as something altogether apart from my own elistence, but for which, I at last see clearly, you and I have been up to the present time, mostly to blame. We and our class have kept back by fraud the hire of the laborers who have reaped our fields, we have lived in pleasure on the earth and been wanton, we have nourished our own hearts while we have starved the bodies of > those to whom we owe the very bread we eat and the clothes we wear, and - now we are condemning and killing ' at our own very gates the people whose inarticulate cry is entering into the ears of the Lord of Sabbath, whose faithful QDrron^Q txrn rt r atari rl fn V>o U4AVXA4UX OVA TUUbO ?f V pVWUVt IV VV* My fellow-citizens, I know not how it may be with you, but for me this earless, selfish life is ended. Little by little I have awakened to the fact that all my days I have entirely neglected my real duty to my fellow men, and at last I have come to know that my proper place is not here as a wellpaid bishop of a church which, in its present conditions, is utterly opposed to everything which Christ taught, but among the poor, to whom He declared that the gospel should be prached; among the laborers whose hire we have kept back by fraud. Too long have I neglectedthe miserable social facts of our so-called Christian civilization. Too long have I spoken to you smooth things and cried peace when there was no peace. I have known by repute that there was misery among our people, starvation in our midst, and prostitution on our streets. But hitherto I have taken these as something for which you and I were not responsible, but which, were really due to the inherent wickedness of nature. But now I have learned that our - - '-.-i'.VSL'--'* * /vv-v. s'.l " x'' vi.- - v pleasures and our wantonness liuve been built upon this hideous foundation, and having learned this?as you may also learn if you will?I have resolved that from this Christmas day my new life shall begin. To-day I lay down my robes, T give up my bishopric, my palace and my income; 1 give up my seat in the house of lords; I give up my pleasures of society and of the world, and at last I take my place as a man among men. It is, I know, a bold step that I have taken, but I have fully counted the cost. Resolved no longer to live on the labor of others, I shall probably have to joiu the great army of the un I employed. To-morrow l snan attempt ' to preach my first sermon to tliem in Trafalgar square, from the same text that I have used here to-day, and it Is likely that I shall pass to-morrow night in a police cell. But there I shall be no worse off than Jesus Christ would be if He attempted to enter this abbey (Westminster) now, for he would be arrested and locked up as a vagabond without visible meanj of subsistence. To you and your class He would simply be a laborer whose subsistence you have kept by fraud. To the abolition of that fraud, and of misery and degradation which result from it, I shall henceforth devote my life. It will be no easy task, not near soeasy as being Bishop of London, but the reward of good conscience and of nobler work well done is better far than a palace and ten thousand pounds ($48,000) a year. In this place I shall probably never speak again. But when freedom shall have opened out her arms and gathered all men into her wide embrace, when justice and truth shall have taken the place of oppression and fraud, some man of the people shall stand in this temple of the dead and inspired by the best traditions of the ook!potinne r\f flio r>r<5? [J?Wly liiC UUU1V UO]^llUVlUll>J V4 V"W |/a w ent, and the ideal hopes of the future, shall send ringing through these lofty aisles that living Christmas message, which till then can never have its full significance?"Peace on earth and good will to men."
