When Tamerlane had reared hi, pyra-
mid of seventy thousand human skulls in

wrought, and while leading his fierce war

admiration, and monarchs crouched at his

ODD FELLOWS AND PREsBYTERIASs.-The full
statement of the action of the Synod OF Cincinnati
upon the appeal of member who had been sus-
pended by the Presbytery of Cincinnati for belong
ing to the order of Odd Fellows, puts rather diff
ferent face upon the first rough report. The deci-
sion was as follows
81. That the appeal be sustained; inasmuch as
the lower court has not furnished evidence before
this body, that the mere fact Of holding member
ship in the society of Odd Fellows, forms scrip
tural ground of exclusion from the Church OF
Christ
"2. That, in sustaining this appeal, the Synod is
not to be understood approving of the order OF
Odd Fellows, of any other of the ''Secret Soce-
ties" On the contrary, it is the deliberate opinion
of this body in view of the religious features OF
these associations which not in accordance with
the Gospel, and which, consequently, give offence
to many Christians, the peace of the church
and tend TO impair the Christian usefulness of such
professors-that the members of the church con.
nected with them should prayerfuly and dciiber-
atcly consider this whole subject, and separate
themselves from them"

We take no pleasure in the sufferings
of the Union. Its writings and mincings,
its tergiversations and contortons, are
rather painful than amusing to behold. II
is thoughtless qualification to see even
fly tortured We would rather, therefore,
warn our contemporary when running into
danger, than lure it into trouble. In the
exercise of this charitable and admontory
spirit, we advise il to be careful how it at
tempts such sentiments a. the following,
which we find at the close of ponderous
leader, in its yesterdays. publication,
which was as remarkable for opulence in
words as intellectual poverty:

Of her by false pretenceswe wish see the CONNER
cia use Of this canal free to the whole world; and
do not desire any superior control over il except
TO secure justice from Great Britain to Nicaragua
by coercing her to yield up her pretencc of right
claimed under the Mosquito Indian she calls king;
and except, also, to prevent Great Britain from
tablishing military naval station, from which,
in of war, she could annoy on both sides of
this continent till we had destroyed it,
Imagine for a moment that negotiation
with Great Britain should result i'll the
withdrawal by that power of her military
stations on the San Juan river; that her
pretenslons derived through the Mosquito
king should be abandoned; and that, with
the free consent of Nicaragua, the canal
should be made available to the commerce
of the whole world upon equal and Just
terms;-imagine the settlement of this
question upon the principle and plan laid
down in the foregoing extract. In what
plight would the foreign organ bel Pledged
as ii is, "no matter what face the future
may wear" to "oppose the adminstra-
ton of General Taylor and his cabal to
the bitter end" it would have TO reclaim
its gage Of battle, or swear, as it would be
most likely to do, that it never used such
language-no, never, never, never!
To escape the possibility Of being tossed
upon either horn OF such a dilemma, would
it not be safer in the Union to confne itself
to the more congenlal office Of misrepre-
sentlng what has been done, and abstain
altogether from making any suggestions as
TO what ought to be done Its ingenuity
as a politician, like its cunning as pro-
phet, is wiser after the fact. Ii is gratui-
tous folly in ii, therefore, to venture upon
the future. It's bankrupt in all things ex-
cept its credit for misrepresentation, scan
dal-mongering, intrigue, scurrIlity and har
dihood Ia these respects its character is
at premium; whilst It's reputation for
candor, truth or decency, would not pay
penny on the pound. Hence no we'll
wisher would advise il to indulge in such
indiscreet and dangerous suggestions as We
have cited above, lest it be driven posi-
bly,, by coming events, upon one OF the
other--or, in endeavoring to dodge the
sharper, transfx itself upon both--horns of
the dilemma.

MEDICINAL QUALITIES OF THE GRAPE.-The N.
Y. Commercial, in article on the grape, states
that this fruit is of the best and most wholesome
medicines. This affords an additional induccment
for the culture Of this popular fruit. The Com
mecidI says:
-In the vineyard districts of France, Spain, and
otter wine growing countries, the medicinal prop
ertes OF the grape are well known and highly
priced. The free use of this fruit, as we arc adj
vis.d, has a most salutary effect upon the animal
syzem, diluting the blood, removing distractions
in the liver, kidneys, spleen, and other important
organs, giving healthy tone and vigor to the cir
cuhton, and generally augmenting the strength
of he entire animal economy. In diseases of the
liver, and especially in that monster compound af-
fiction dyspepsia, the sautary and potent influence

w ASH NGTON:
SATURDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 81. 1919.

sThe Hon. X. j. Walker, minister OF finance, in
his report To Congress at the last session. called the
attention of that body to the important subject,
and recommended the securing OF all the routes
across the continent without delay"
In the Guatemala letters, published in
the Union on the 18th of September, the
above passage occurs. The Union quotes
this sentence to prove that "Mr. Polk did
all he was authorized to do by the Consti-
tuition and laws" in aid OF Nicaragua
and the Monroe doctrine. As this is the
only thing cited by the Union in proof of
this fact, and of It's assertion that "Mr.
Polk and Mr.. Buchanan were adopting
every proper and judicious measure to
enable the Monroe declaration to be main
tanned 'at all hazards,'" we are justified
in arguing that the Union's great devotion
to that doctrine is limited to the procuring
of right OF way across the continent; and
that it regards simple suggestion to Con-
gress upon the subject, embodied in ali
interminable report on the finances of the
country, as preparation enough to meet
all the consequences which it conceives
to be involved in the term sat all haz-
ards.'
We have had occasion before now to
note the manner in which the Union repu-
dated these Guatemala letters as anony-
nous scribbling, notwithstanding the ado
it made over them a month ago. 1t,
however, retains enough faith in them to
credit whatever they say which makes
for its side, and hence it has reproduced
the passage quoted to prove that the Polk
administration was preparing" to go to
terrible lengths in support of the Monroe
declaration. 1t must be admitted that
reputation for prowess and daring is
cheaply won, if Mr.. Walkers recommen-
dation was sufficient to achieve it. We
have not heard, however, that MIR. Walk
er's report produced the slightest conster,
nation in Great Britain, or even excited a
hope in the government of Nicaragua.
Could Great Britain have marked the re-
commentator in Mr.. Walkers report
for surely all Europe must have quailed
before such a manifesto The combined
monarchies of the world would scarcely
have dared to usurp American territory if
they had but known that, if they made
kings of our Indians, dsmeinbered our
neighboring republics, and set up hostile
Jurisdictions on the gulf coast, Mr.. Walker
would recommend that wagon road be
constructed to the Sacramento or some
other route secured to the Pacific
