Tub Modern Pulpit. Th oracular powirund virtue which ones dwell in the pulpit, have depirltd lo the printing preii on the other tide of ids street. The par iih church whioh once lorded It over the landncapn, and pointed lit steeple, liko till finger ef busliinjjnwe, toward heaven and even the ministor, which lifted op broader hand of more imperative power, lure round formidable rival, not only in the Dissaniin; dispel, hut io the privato school, nay, in the pulilie lions ofllio vil hgn, whore men talk, nn.l think, and form pnssiounte purposes over newspapers. berrnons are new cruized, oe-t obeyed ; and when our modern 1'auU preach, our Fe lixes yawn instead of trembling. Mima tors have become timid and apologetic class ; the fearlessness of Knox it seldom met wilb, save among the fanatics among their Dumber, in whom it looks simply lu dicrous. The thunders of the pulpit have iliod away, or, wlion they are awakened, it is through the preaclior's determination to be popular, or through the agitation of bis despair; be in general consults, not com. mands, the taste of his audience; and his word, unlike his professed Master's, ia with out authority, and therefore as that of the Scribes, nay, lea powerful than theirs. John Howe could preach six heuri to un wearied throngs. Twenty years ago, Edward Irving could protract his speech to midnight ; but now, a sermon of three quarters of an hour, even from eloquent lips, is thought sufficiently exhaustive, both of the subject and of tho audience. Cilftlkn, What Constitutes a Politician f A long tongue and an empty bead; a flu ncy of speech amounting to a verbal di arrhea; asingulur lack of ideas; but an abundant store of clap trap and fustian ; a perfect devotion to solf and selfish ends s a slavish adulation of the " dear people" for tue sake or the loaves and fishes they have the power to confer ; a patriotism as hollow as a drum, and as noisy ; an appetite so rapacious that it regards the gift sf one fat capon of an office as but the prelude to a succession of similar dishes, each supe rior to the one that precedes it, and a rank- j ling jealousy to every individual whose claims to the public consideration are based upon the more sterling qualities of intellect and good morals.
