DR. IRVING'S SERMON.
With the present number, THE RECORD begins the publication of a very valuable sermon by the Rev. David Irving D. D .; an historical sketch of the revivals in the First Church. It was written during a time un- usually full of distractions and trying inter- ruptions, and preached on the first Sabbath after the completion of the most extended and expensive renovation which the Church has ever received. This sermon has just now a special interest, owing to the fact that Dr. Irving is suffering from a painful accident, which he received while in atten- dance at the Presbyterian Council in Bel- fast. His friends will be glad to learn that the latest letters report him to be making good progress towards recovery.
REVIVALS IN THE CHURCH : BY THE
REV. DAVID IRVING, D. D.
Preached on first Sabbath after the re- novation of the Church, Sept. 18th, 1859.
Psalm 122, 5th part ; Anthem ; Psalm 132 2d Part.
But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High. I will re- member the works of the Lord : surely I will remember thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings .- Psalm, Ix.xvii, 10-12.
If it were good for the children of Israel to look back and remember all the way which the Lord their God led them ; if the Church in the text encouraged herself by the remembrance of former deliverances ; so does it become his covenant people now, at times, to talk of his wonders of old, and hover with the deepest gratitude over the years of the right hand of the Most High. Around these the fondest and the holiest

THE RECORD.
memories of the few cluster; whilst the mass live rather in what they heard than in what they saw, able however to utter the language of the Church in the days of David, " we have heard with our ears, O God ; our fathers have told us what works thou didst in their days, in the time of old." And all of us in the survey can repeat the declaration and longing of Zion, "Lord, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; thou hast brought back the cap- tivity of Jacob. Wilt thou not revive us again, that thy people may rejoice in thee ?" For such a survey of the Lord's work in the past will give us a fresh occasion to delight in our relation to God, and in the manifesta- tion of his transforming and sanctifying power.
This disposition to look back to former times is instructive. Who of us does not cherish in thought our youthful deeds, and wonder-yea, oft linger-over the scenes of childhood. As a Nation we seek to perpe- tuate the story of our youth, and are aiming to hand down to coming ages,by commemor- ative signals, some of the prominent inci- dents and characters of the past. Shall we not, as a Congregation preserved and bless- ed of heaven, but for a holier purpose, en- deavor to bring distant events near, when we meet for the first time in this renovated but dear old building, in which our fathers worshipped, since our present prosperity is so intimately and indissolubly connected with God's covenant dealings with those fathers ?
The expression "years of the right hand of the Most High" may have reference to times of special favor, in which he had wrought wonders for his people ; or, it may mean, as some interpret it, " the change of the right hand of the Most High," expres- sive of trouble, as the hand that had been displayed for them was now turned against them. With the latter interpreta- tion, they are represented, in the midst of their present trials, as still clinging to God, and solacing themselves with the sweet re- collections of his wonders of old. What- ever rendering is given, the conclusion is · the same ; that God has oft appeared glori- ously among his people, in deliverance and revival, the bare remembrance of which was enough to inspirit his Church when
feeling the loss of his refreshing presence or groaning under afflictions.
Whatever was the nature and extent of the favors so munificently bestowed in the past, we find that they were regarded as proceeding wholly from the Most High. This truth underlies all gratitude, praise and love ; and on no other ground can the glory of the work be given to Him. God is a sovereign,-at liberty to act as he pleases and carry out unrestrained the purposes of his heart. He has, therefore, a right to ac- complish those purposes in the way that shall seem best to him. He may come as the dew of Israel, silently and gently mov- ing upon his Church ; or, he may come in Pentecostal showers, beautifying and en- larging the moral power of Zion. In both ways has he displayed his might in the earth,-as well as in hiding his face from those who forget his wonders,-teaching his people that He sits upon the throne, and giving the assurance that he will ac- complish the transcendant issues promised in his word. In these majestic and compas- sionate movements of the Most High to- wards our race, he does not act capriciously but in harmony with his revealed will and the faithful improvement of the means of grace-the gifts of his wisdom and love ;- so that it may be laid down as a principle to govern us, that, according to the prepar- ation of heart and the faithful employment of means, the Spirit is given. This is clearly revealed in the Scripture.
Now, coming under the influence of these truths, verified so oft in our history and ex. perience as a Church, we can to-day sing of goodness and mercy,-we can meditate on his work and talk of his doings ;- for God, mighty to save, has oft appeared in the midst of us, filling this house with his glory, and more than once answering the cries of his awakened and longing people. And to some of God's wonders among us let me turn your thoughts.
Scarcely was this region of country sur- veyed before we find a Church organized. In 1718, three years after it became the legal property of the white man, and when there were but few farms cleared and few dwellings to be seen, a new Church was formed at Whippany, called at that time East Han- over ; and a house of worship reared near,
