MODERATORS ABDIIEiS.

The Rev. I{. Somtnerville; the new Moderator, delivered his opening address as followa : — Fatubf.3 AND BnETimitN,—l am deeply grateful for the great honour you bave con ferred upon mo by raiting mo to tho posiiion of Moderator of the CJeneral Assembly ot tho Presbyterian Church of New Zoaland, 'Ihis is a distinction I highly value, and hoped somo day to enjoy, but in my most sanguine moments, I did not cherish tin hopo of being called, so enrly In my ministry, to prcsjdfl over au assembly of so groat Influence aad Importance as tbat of the Supromo Court of our Church, While I flunk you sincerely for this expression of your coifiiUnce, I take this chair, weighted wilh feelings of unwortbiuessand Inability to perform with becoming aptno»fc nnd dignity the responsible duties of the cilice; but I rely with confidence upon what, I am sure, will be willingly accorded me, tho foibcuranco and assistance whuh riper years and longor experience quulify for Riviuß. In addressing you on tho occasion of the opening of another meetiug of the Geitrtl Assembly, I know of no subioct to the con sideration of which our minds may bo more bentiicially turned than that ■ot " Ohi Church : its wants and prospects." It is a subject that immediately concerns us— is that, indeed, for tho practical ex position ot which we aro gatbortd together. Our church is dear to every Presbyterian, and well it may bo. It h:is a history more auciont than that of any other visible ecclesiastical organisation, and ex hibiting far more of the heroic. Fouudcd by the Apostles on the lines laid down by ttioir Di vino JMasler.its contention ha« ever been for " tlic faith ouco delivered to the bnints." To maintain, that faith ia its purity and iuviolibility, ie has lived and Buffered, and it still lives and suffers. Ido not hold that it is the solo repository of truth on earth, but I do hold that its poli.y and tcachiug come nearer to Iho IVew Testament model than those o? nny othi>r brauch of the church militant, It is truly Apostolical in its polity, end tho truths it now contends for are those "once delivered to the Suints." In the o'ays of the Apostles, evangelical truth strove against the Jtiituallsra of Judaism and prevailed. In our day, It strives against error in various forma with the aamo result. Truth nia-j push its way slowly against error, but soonor or later it will prevail by forco of its nature. So it is that from those wo least expected to hear it, uud in quartors we Itast expected to find it, tho truth of our Apostolical origin is admitted and the fereatness if our history eulogised. True, this does not mako ua tho groater, but it illustrates the fact that when on any field wo unflinchingly contend for tho truth ; though baffled oft we're sure to win. Built upon the foundation laid by tho Anoatlea and prophets, Jesus Christ Him self, being the chief corner stone, our Church's one foundation is Jesus Christ the .Lord, "in whom the whole building, baing fitly framed together, is growing. It is growing in dimensions; it is growing in influence ; it is growing in power for good. Our ministerial strength has more than doubled during the past ten years, and yet thcro Is room, Our membership h»s moro than doubled during the same period, and other parts of our ecclesiastical organization have grown In proportion. Ten year* ago tho General Treasurer was gratified in being ablo to report that he hod a balance of £1000 In his hands belonging to the schemes of tho Church; now he is ablo to roport tbat he holds £7000, These are facts which point conclusively to growth, moro satisfactory in its measure than many of our own people aro aware of. It is cot the genius of our system to take spasmodic leaps, and make .a great noise, feuoh as to attiact the attention and win the admiration of those who are tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of docliine. Quietly aud unostentatiously, yet steadily and auroly, as Is tho teaching of tho Divine Master, whose ambassadors we aro, our progress is onward. Wo havo maintained a steady, ptrsorerfng conrro in (ho past, battling against tho difficulties incident to tho pro pagating of tho truth in a new country, where tha attention of tho people is neces sarily much occupied, with the world and the things thereof j and the figures I luve quoted tell with what success. I do not mention theso thinWln th'b spirit of boast, ing, for tho simple performance of duty Rives no occasion for boosting, either by man or by Church ; but!'havo reason to beliovo that thero is occasion for giving pro minence to facts that prore that we are faithfully striving to fulfil our mission as a Christian Church in this land. In view of the publicity sought by, aud given to, some sections of the Church by the Press, we havo been accused again and again, and evea by thoscwho are of up, of being asleep, That we havo not paraded every little act of our congregations ostentatiously before public affords no evidence, surely, that \o aro asleep,: A sleeping Church cannot be an increasing Church, and there is the fact that year after year we havo laid before tnis Assembly the most incontestiblo proof that wo are making progress ; that In pro: portion as our agencies multiply our Influ ence widens, and our power'for good is felt 'hy the people, as seen in tlia carefujjy pre pared Annual Tablo of Statistics. ' ' It is of little moment what outsiders think or say of our prosperity as a church, for that ia a matter that so seriously con cerns us that it will at all times receive the most carcfnl-attention. We will not be above accepting of a suggestion, however, or drawing an inference from the sayings and doings of others. 1 infor then that the -public lcoks for greater Visfbility on flic .pai't of our church. This is i. pleasing ex pttotation, for it iaan adini&ionthat'tte'are capable of much greater visibility than we enjoy, and that, it is Cifust for disiippoint '•incbt that it is1 riot mofe apparent. I mean visibility in tho widest sense of the word. Tim we may ihjoy through; tb'e Press, and while I hold it isjnost'unj'ist to accuse us of being asleep because we are, not moro frequently toforo the world thrbugh the Pioss,l>thiukoureh"mch would be very much benefUted by asmore frequent use'of the Tress. Jn, these days when tho- Press is the great education of tjje people, the' Pulpit will add va^tly.'tot its power by making good use of. evert advantage thci Press offers.' By means of ir, visibility will i 19e gained and the public Will bo educated ,in regard to us as a body . embrac ing mer* than Kali "ilie iPrqteitant ' population of the globe, whose ministers 1 and missionaries are to be found io almost every comer of the earth and preach the

Gospel in almost cverytongue under heaven The Press is a force more potent by far than tSb'Ffflplfc- its teach fng3*i'each coraora and closes that the voice of the preacher cannot, and uiuch or the indifferehe'e in regard to, tliingtf riivinc, v.hich we'aH' .so much de-' j;tor.', and whicb, in a krfee proportion of cases, mp'.dly.' 'dcvulopes ; iutb full .blown iuMelity, is traceable" td the baneful ionu tube of a corrupt P/ess .1 Know of cases where publications fforn'tfcis, source, im ported from Aiborica, hafa been trie means of doing incalculable harm in unsettling the minds of the young- making them first lulcewarrn iniegard'to the Christian r^li gi6il' then cold-then npeWy and boldly antagonistic. A base Press1 has "a great power for evil in lowering the morat tot c of the, masses ■ and leading therivto; 'despise ever^ religion? institution ara*influence ; but a Press eonducte«i«Yi«»wa view to the moral and intellectual improvement of ibe people possesses a power for Rood the extent of which no ore cm estimate. In my travels in the country I have abundant evi dence of this, iind I nave repeatedly carried home to my mind tno conviction, that if there is; tone thing more than anktUer that our Church; in providing for the iwaats of tbo country, should pray ~ eaijue.s.tly for, it i 3" tust ttiere may always circulate" a liigh-tmcd Pro s,'"denouncing e<il fn'itvcry'lorm and eveiyvjhere, lAhd fe^llcssly upholding. Jhe \fa\p. .ao.d main taining the rij'ht. The Press'preacbes and ttaolio when tho mini.tcr is silent, and it ri'jiojrts where Ms face is neyfer teen ; it wields a'.'miglhty power in ruqiudiiig public opjnipn, and; that power may be employed by ~ut in''securing _ what'm ddsider'ated Hrea'ttiflfiubiiity. \ ''. f^- This, then, is a want of oir^cUurch, for :I he satisfy ing «f which provisiVn may be ma'io by"means of, the! Press, Bujt tte Press muofc- be supplied with tho materials re quigiteto the uatisjf.ctoiy supply of that want, It mutt have facts to record; 'fact* suitable ta tbe attainment of h the end in view. If we have not. these, if acts to/.-give we are led baeji to another, which indeed we njay well call, the one great want of .the church more life. , I have said we, have nude prcgre**, but we must now fee the eoquiry, Haa our prog.ess b»Dn| all' things con.idtred, imch as might, _be,*easonably expected at si church Be.nisjtoi;icaily great and powerful an ours ? Hear we must an- S*'or, No! Cur chariot,wheel* have not .in»ved so rapidly *aa ih^ pVogress of the 'colony required. We have, in a large meaturr, been outrun, f Hat! we toeen true to our historical zeal and loVe" of principle, we 'would bavo Keen much farther forwaidin the chase than We'Bre. We have made progress, but there1 li no getting away fr»m »his fatet: that our pro grcsj w<iuld have leen mor« conspicuous if we had shown more life. In a new country, where all is" chiing*,- ifr comparison with what we have ben accustomed to;.We can cot be eKpeoted to move on tbetfime stereo'1 typed lines as in- the old, and hopetor tha' same reiults. i We must nuveMon in keepi inj with tha latituJo of our PMsbyterian i«m. It is mafiiciently elastic to accommo date itkelf to all the exigences of oolonial life. The law of adaptation is recognised in our kystem, and there U nothing in oar machinery—that -caD, by it* nature, Ue heavily upon the whtela of progreu. It theao '■wheels hare not b»e» im>ed»d in ilioir revolutioni, by ,tke curabro«« n*Ura of tks machinery b/ whi«h tbey •re*»lve, shore ruust be tomi ethsr ca«fle i»r'their xluggishnots. If n«t la tba mtola; of-tha machinsry, it must bo in tlwt which gives it and kesp" it in. moti»n. In »hort, it ig t* bo tou»d in w*nt of steam—Uck of life. Ihiru ii life sufficient t« lire on* day «nd year a' anithiir, but not s«fiicie»t-'-• pusU alicad eno year much faster tha» •nother. This is tits. want, and in a colorjy where all is life and protparity, a very great want it. is. It arisw from a variety of cause*, the chief «iid controlling one being lack »f splritualjife and foro«. Withoat spiiitualtyfe. In a Church there ca« iio no progress ; and just in proporti«n to tbe meusureof spiritual life is the prtgres* made. We are forcod, then, tv Uw oo»clu. sion that our progress not having been what, from.the progressive character of our ecclesiastical system, we had a right, to expect, we hive not e»joyed the measure of spiritual life necessary to more Mpidgrowth. Ibis spiritual life is fostered by the cultiva tion of ,tbe miud and heart. Has there, ihen, been anything deficient in the pro c«as of cultivation t » ev«r losing sujht of the fact that to a spiritual natuw there is only one kind of satisfying food, neither should we losa night of, this fact—that the food may be mado more palatab'e by reason of the greater attractiveness of the channel through which it is conveyed. If coming through a truly Scriptural channel, it is far more attractive to the Spiritual man than coming through a channel formed by the dev'co of men, and bearing tbe marks of human taint. Our Church forma ft truly and thoroughly Scriptural channel ftr tho coavayance of Spiritual food to the spiritual man, and one reason, I believe, why it is not first in the van of pro^res* is that its grent viirietj of attractions a'e lost sight of in the prevalent mode of s»tisfylng the demands ot o<ms«ienc», by_ cold forma liam and gaudy show. Tnere is no denying the fact that a large numb-r of our pe«ple, yourjg aud old, are carried away by these attractions, arjd lost in love ot the sensuous to tho neglect of the tru'y spiritual. To counteract this tendency, so far as the law of adaptation will allow, should be our aim. Principle is dear to every true man, and I beliove if our children were made ac quainted with what our forefathers suffered in their efforts to ma'ntain tha principles which they hold sacred, our Church would be surroutded with historical atttac'iona that a great proportion of our people know nothing of. Such eminent men as Fronde, and Sir James Me In tosh, applaud the great influence ftr good that has rfollowed the maintenance of our Presbyterian principle*. They admit that these revolutionised Wes tern Europe and her populations; and his tory teaiifioi to th-lr g-e»t power arid Id. fluencn Id the work ot civil as well as reli gious Jiberty. Our Churchhasaglarious and s most Influential p;nt; and pity is, it is so little kiown. If it were better known, no trail or woman with a apark of love for the true and the noble would quit its com munion. The making of this known I believe to bo a want of onr church. The instruction of the people, young and old, in the history, polity, and doctrines of our Preabytcriatiism, would give it' attractions that it does not now po'sess to tbVrte ignorant of these things. Whether^y lec tures or tract*, there is, I believe, an urgent demand for the supply of this want) and its supply would tend greatly- to conserve aud promota the highest interests of the body.

This is desirable, but it is far from being all that is desirable to conserve and pro mote tho interests of our church. By keep. i»g oursolves before the -world in such a way as. to command the confidence and rrspect of the petple, we will giro them the eviaenee they piaoe «o much' value upon, that wo are not only living, zealous, and growing, but dntermiied to grow and pros per. To the end that growth and pros perity may be secured in proportion ta the materials at command, we would do well to pay a little more regard to the tastes of the people in the cervices of the sanctuary, ■ I do net approve of set forms which crush true spiritual life out of a church and promota the form of godliness without the power thereof ; nor wonld I advocate interference with anything that is good -atitt-' grand in the very simplicity of our services. But that simplicity may be made more attrac tive by reason of more attractive surround ings. No one who knows the changes that take place in our congregations will deny the necessity for doiug all that we can la keeping with our priccip!ds; W'retaiu the young by rnskins» the services of God's horse as attractive to them as postible. I premnie not to say how* this* is to be done. " VVhilo I love the old style with its many sacred men ories and hallowed associations I cauuot shut my eyes to the fact, that the woild is advancing—that , thought is changing—so changing tha^ whole com plexion of things tbat the world that now is doe mot appear .the same world, .that we looked upon twenty years aRo..
