HENRY WARD BEECHER.
HENRY WARD BEECHER. INTERESTING LECTURE AT DOWLAIS. As was briefly reported in our columns last week, a lecture on Henry Ward Beecher was delivered at Ivor Chapel, Dowlais, by the Rev. E. Griffith- Jones, London, Mr. W. L. Daniel, of Merthyr, in the chair. In the course of his lecture Mr. Jones said that one of the greatest of all God's gifts to us was the gift of great men. Great men exercised an influence for good which no amount of teaching could do. Great men were the blight examples which the young people of our and every other country endeavoured to follow, and by doing so made the world better. The hero of that night's lecture was one of the world's greatest orators. Various definitions of eloquence had been given, but they must all feel that none of those definitions were quite satisfactory. The lecturer proceeded to give various definitions, and went on to say that of all great men the great orator was the one who most influenced men during his life time. In the natural course of events his oratory was silenced in death but while it lived it was the most potent of all in- fluences to sway the public mind. Henry Ward Beecher came of distinguished parentage, and all his life was blessed with a splendid constitution. On his mother's side he was descended from the Foote's, one of whom had helped to hide the future of Charles II. in the Royal Oak at Boscoljel. They would thus see that an ancester of Henry Ward Beecher had taken a great part in moulding the history of this great England of ours, a slight part, perhaps, but one which, had it not been done, might have completely altered the history of this land. At school Beecher was by no means precocious. He was a slow boy to acquire knowledge, and certainly gave no indication whatever of the great part which he was to play in after life. He (Mr. Jones) said that for the benefit of boys who might be piesent, and who were generally called dull boys," and for their parents whose duty it was to look after the education of their children, but on no account to cram them with super- ficial learning. Beecher was a humorous boy, and instances were given of his droll answers to questions when at school. He was a mischievous boy, too, and often got into scrapes. Of course he tried to get out of those scrapes as best he could, but he never told a lie to escape punishment. Beecher lived a stainless youth. Many people were under the impression that genius could not exist without vice, and that because Byron and Burns and others had not lived virtuous lives, therefore it must be regarded as an inevitable indication of genius that a man should sow his wild oats, as the phrase went. But in the vast majority of cases it happened that the man who sowed wild oats never sowed anything else, and those oats, as the Grecian fable said, grew up like dragons and slew the sower. However much vice and genius might have gone together in our cotmtry it was indisputable that in America at all events all the men who had tended to make that country great had lived spotless and pure lives. Washington, Garfield, Lincoln, Beecher and many others had all of course their little failings, but they were at least free from the particular vice at which he had hinted. Henry Ward Beecher's first ministry was on the border of the primeval forest, on the verge of barbarism," as he himself expressed it, and there he had to be preacher, deacon, sexton, churchwarden, and chapel cleaner all in one. There were none to assist him in that wild country. His church membership numbered twenty, nineteen of whom were women, and lie had frequently to walk or ride great distances in order ro preach the gospel to the rough frontiersmen. It was the knowledge he gained in that rough time that 8tood him in such good stead in after hfe, because he knew exactly what the different officials of the church ought to do, having done the work himself, even to the scrubbing of the floor of his wretched and draughty little chapel. After staying for eight years at Indianopolis, Beecher received a call to the new chapel at Brooklyn. They all knew what a call meant. It was a remarkable thing that while it was regarded as discreditable for a man to entice away another man's wife, or to seek to steal another man's sweetheart, both the Eighth and Tenth Commandwere complacently set aside when the officers "Ureli wanted a new minister they cared not for the good work that might suffer by the taking away of a popular minister what they looked for was the most eloquent minister, and the one that was most talked about. Beecher himself said that no man should leave his church unless there was a powerful influence push- ing from behind, and an open door in front of him. In his own case there was reason to believe that there was a strong pushing force behind, and there was the open door of the new church at Brooklyn in front of it, and Beecher entered it. Then began that wonderful series of services that were almost without parallel in the history of the Christian ministry. Probably Henry Ward Beecher and Charles Spurgeon were the two men who exercised the most wonderful influence of any who had ever entered a pulpit. On the very first occasion that Beecher entered the pulpit in the Ply- mouth Church there was a crowded congregation, and throughout the whole of the forty years of that most wonderful pastorate, the church was full at every meeting. There was no salaried choir, as in so many other American places of woiship but the whole congregation entered heartily into the singing of the hymns of praise to God there Henry Ward Beecher preached that long list of sermons that were after- wards printed and read by thousands of people in England and other parts of the world. Having dealt at some length with Beecher's powers as a preacher, the lecturer went on to speak of his connection with the agitation for the abolition of slavery. Beecher had been called the Will>erforce of America, but such a designation was hardly fair. Lecturing against the slave trade was only a phase, and not the principal phase either, in Beect.er's life, and even if it had been so there was not one of Wilberforee'S addresses, excellent though some of them were, that could com- pare with those of Beeoher. It was hard for them in England to believe that until some thirty years ago the slave trade, with all its brutal, inhuman horrors, was in full swing in the enlightened land where dwell OURSINAI'VD across the sea.

been made known to us. Well, Henry Ward Beecher was one of the that, and certainly one of the strongest and most determined of the American abolitionists, and he commenced the campaign in a strange but characteristic fashion. It was during his pastorate at Indianopolis, and at the time he (Mr. Jones) might tell them that slavery was as openly advocated, if not practised, in New York itself and all over the North, a" in any part of the South, all the "great people." as they were called, were interested in it, and so intricately was the net woven, that it required a man of almost superhuman courage to say one word against the frightful system. Well Beecher had a crowded congregation one Sunday morning, and he seized the opportunity to preach one of his most soul-affecting sermons on the subject of the bondage of the Israelites in Egypt, dining the time of the great Pharaoh. So absorbed did he get in his subject, that he found it was quite impossible to conclude the sermon then. So he told the congre- gation that he would finish it at night. Those present told those who were not at church of the ? wonderful sermon which Mr. Beecher had preached to them, and as may be supposed, the church at night was packed in every part. Beecher briefly "recapitulated the points of the morning's sermon, and then proceeded in his own marvellous way to picture the horrors of the Egyptian captivity. As he proceeded, he could see the tears in the eyes of his congregation, who had been moved to the very soul by the sufferings of those old-time Hebrews. Several ladies wept, and Beecher could see that his audience was deeply moved. At that supreme moment he said "Ah, you weep over the sufferings of the captive Hebrews, but in your very midst to-day you smile upon a system that is ten times more barbarous than underwhich the children of Israel writhed," and he forthwith proceeded to condemn the slave trade. Next morning he received shoals of letters of abuse and threats the principal people in his church gave up their seats, and some of the officials said that either they or the dai ing preacher must go, so horrified were they at finding one of their most cherished insti- tutions openly attacked. Everything seemed to indicate that Beechei's career was ended so far as Indianopolis was concerned. But the brave preacher said nothing he allowed his opponents to have their say, and then the inevitable re-action set in. People thought that the man who could thus openly con- demn a system in which so many of the better classes were interested must indeed be a man, and they gradually got ashamed of themselves. Those who had given up their seats wrote to re-tiook them, and by the following Sunday the church was if anything more crowded than before, and Henry Ward Beecher was the most popular man in the whole town, if not in the whole country. From that time lie was the bitter uncompromising enemy of the slave dealer and those who sympathised with him. And when he came to fashionable Brooklyn one of his first duties was to let his congregation know that he was as implacable in his hostility to the inhuman SYSTEM as when he was in a wilder and more western state. Unfortunately at that time even England was on the side of the slave-holders. It was not therefore to be wondered at that when Henry Ward Beecher came to this country in 1863 he should be received with turbulent opposition. Practically all the great news- papers in London were on the side of the South, all with the notable exception of the Daily Ncv,S, which was then controlled by Charles Dickens, the man whose voice had at all times been lifted up in the cause of humanity. The great vested interests in the country, even the clergymen, and, he grieved to say it, a vast number of the Nonconformist ministers were all ranged on the side of the oppressors. Throughout these islands there was but one spot where the ministers of religion and the press were on the side of the anti-slavery advocates, and that one spot was Wales, a fact which was remembered with gratitude in America when the bitter struggle was over to which Mr. Beecher had gratefully referred when he last spoke at Swansea shortly before his death, and which would probably never be forgotten in America. With all the country virtually on the side of the South, it was not to be wondered at that Beecher was not cordially received when he camo here. Yet in one week he spoke five times, and so marvellous was the effect of his oratory that it produced an entire change of opinion in the minds of a great number of the people. n anecdote or two relative to his physical courage would no doubt be appreciated. There was in Indi- anopolis a course, brutal bully who was the terror of the entire populace nobody dared oppose on account of his activity in the use of his six-shooter. One Sunday Beecher noticed the bully in his church, AND his remarks during the sermon were so pointed that not even the dnllest person present could doubt that they were directed at the dreaded ruffian. That day, after the sermon, the preacher had many friendly warnings to leave Indianopolis, because after such a sermon he would be certain to lie shot by the bully. Beecher did not act upon this friendly advice, and next day he was going along the road when he saw the bully with his revolver in his hand. The latter was threatening all manner of things against Mr. Beecher, and Mr. Beecher, hearing his name men- tioned, stopped to see what all the noise was about, for a crowd had gathered outside the inn, on the door- step of which the bully was standing. The latter, addressing Mr. Beecher, demanded if the references in his sermon were to him. Mr. Beecher calmly replied "Yes," and the. rough brute, raising his revolver, shouted, "Take back yer words or be shot." Mr. Beecher looked at the bully and at the threaten- ing weapon and simply said, Shoot, myfriend." The man paused a moment, then lowering his weapon he ran into the inn, and, escaping by the back way, was never again seen in the town. On another occasion, during the bitterest stages of the anti-slavery move- ment, he was announced to address a meeting, and it WAS openly declared that lie would be publicly shot if he attempted to say anything against the slave tramc—a, number of men had been told off for the express purpose of shooting him in the public meeting, presumably as A warning to others. His friends endeavoured to dissuade him from going to the meet- ing, but Beecher was firm, and he asked some of them to come with him. No doubt they would have liked to say No," BUT they agreed to accompany him, and TO take seats on the platform with him. It was noticed, however, that there was a great distance between Henry Ward Beecher and the nearest man on each side of him. Of course, there was a tremendous row when he got up to speak, but. curiosity getting the better of them they, after a while, gave silence, and Beecher, before commencing his address, said he understood there were men in that audience who had been told off to murder him. Well," lie continued, all of you who are going to shoot me, come up to the platform that I may see you before you imbrue your hands in my blood, that I may shake hands with you before I die, for I am going to heaven and I don't expect to see you any more." Those words were received with a terrific cheer, and thereafter Beecher was allowed to deliver his address unmolested and undisturbed. In con- clusion the speaker spoke at some length of Beecher's hospitality to all who called upon him, and said that throughout his life he had no title by which he might be classified, but longer than any mere title would live the imperishable name of Henry Ward Beecher. On the proposal of Mr. 1). W. Jones, solicitor, seconded by Mr. Henry W illiains, a hearty vote of thanks was passed to the lecturer, and a similar compliment was paid to the chairman.
