Classon Avenue Presbyterian Church, Brook
Rev. Joseph Duryea, pastor, last evening delivered
the fourth OF series OF dscourses on "The Origin OF
the World, Man, Sin, Redemption and the Church,
The church was filled in every part by q very inte-
gent audience. The reverend gentleman spoke par
ticularly OF the Garden OF Eden, and his entire dis
course was hig hy instructive and showed much
study. Adam was not left in the world to wander
alone. He was not left alone to seek home; bur
God restricted him. e was placed in Eden, place
of delight, the boundaries OF which were known 10

The question may be ., asked, ea,,oa Wny was
may be given to this. Adam required food, and that
within the enclosure was considered best suited FOR
him by God. True there were fruits beyond; but
they may have been hurtful to Adams mind and
body. The garden was evidently for man. while the
outside thereof was for less than man. God never
reveals himself, and there are mOmentous reasons
for it. Were He to come out Of His hiding place He
would destroy our plane and compel our love by the
grandeur OF His presence. His secuson Is intended
for mans good, as the vast distance between Ms and
God strengthens our religious feelings. But the ex-
cusion OF Eden was not because OF Its abundant
fruits and beauties. God separated 1t from the rest Of
the world for q wise purpose. It was not enclosed
from His presence for that revealed there This
separation OF Adam from the outside world was
the beginning Of Gods work OF separation. He
separated Cain from Abel, He separated the Church
from its enemies, He separated man from man, and

CRETE AND TIE GREEKS.

The memorable declaration OF Fuad Pasha
that all Helencs are determined TO cut loose
from the Turkish yoke. and that tho Greek
Government disclaims all responsibility in the
matter, inasmuch as it is utterly pOwerless.
even if it were willing. to crush the spirit of
freedom among the Hellenic race, is in itself
sufficient to expose the futility OF tho preten-
sions of the Porto TO right Of sovereignty
against which, by its own confession, tho
masseC of tho Ilellencs revolt, and to which
they will not submit. II Is asserted that the
Cretans can never succeed, unless the Great
Powers acknowledge their independence, and
that Fuad Pasha declined to consent TO this
unless there were another Turkish defeat like
that of Navarino.
What is Transporting at present in the East
shows how utterly impossible it is in our day
to trample with impunity upon the Rights of
Man. when they arc as herolcally asserted and
indicated az they have been by the Cretan
people. That the Great Powers have ~, stated
To acknowledge Cretan independence has actu-
ally brought about the war which this timidity
was intended to avert They strOve hard to
represent the Crotan struggle as crushed, and
TO make the world believe that it was carried on
only 10y n few guerrilla bands, and that the
whole Cretan people was far from being enlisted
in the war of independence. although eye
witnesses, among whom may be mentioned the
Cretan correspondents Of The Ns,D- York Herald
and The London Daily News, repeated over and
over again that the Provisional Government OF
Crete was fully organized and in undisputed
possession Of the whole open country, and that
it had become n de Jdcto Government and
although the Turks were 80 much incensed by
their impotency to change these accomplished
facts MS to declare war against tho Greek race.
Notwithstanding all these and other conclusive
evidences of the success of the Cretans in sus-
tanning their Independence, il is again and
again being attempted to belittle Crete and
Greece and to exalt the Turks, simply because
it is deemed objectionable in the Cretans to
insist upon their liberty, even at the risk of
bringing about general war;
But it is no fault of theirs that, for the last
three years, the Christian Powers looked OH
with indifference to tho crimes perpetrated upon
their women and nOn-cOmbatant populations
and that the Great Powers sought to hush up
the matter by sitting tho cries of the victims
of MOslem cruelty, and by misrepresontng their
indOmitable lOy0 of independence.
Fuad Pashas vista may not have advanced
beyond the period of the battle of Navarno,
but the world has made some progress since
that time. Events have since transpired which
everywhere put Dcspotisn on the defensive,
and give to Liberty the sanction Of the spirit
of tho age

DEtTU I'M THE oSOcIhL GLASS;

The World has discovered an open secret.
The French brandy drank in this City, it says,
is badly adulterated with "fusil oil" and other
banefn ingredents-in short, it is a compound
of American Whisky and drugs. This, it says.
is tho fault of the Tariff We have a high
duty on French Brandy; hence it il exten-
siyely cOunterfeited by our enterprising manu-
facturers,
Now there are few persons Mt all familiar
with the Liquor Traffic whether as friends or
enemies who do not know that Adulteration is
its fundamental law. Even in Paris, where
Wines arc cheap, it is established by official
returns that twenty per cent. more wines are
sold than enter the city. In Great Britain
pcrnicious authorizations not only of Wines
and Distilled Liquors. but even Of Ale or Beer
are fearfuly common. The official returns OF
the annual importation Of COccuiuS IndiCuS and
other poisonous drugs used only or mainly i'll
making Beer more hurtful than it need be,
proves that the cheapness of a beverage does
not prevent its ndultcratiOn.
Some ten years ago, when we had low
Revenue Tariff, the vintage of France was
almost an entire failure. At once an immense
demand was developed there for American
Whisky-raw "cOm- juice" fusl oil" and all
to make French Brandy of Thousands after
thousands Of barrels were swiftly exported,
and no one pretended to make mystery OF
the matter The Whisky wOnld not have been
wanted there but for the lack of Grapes.
In this City there have existed for years
under high tariffs and low-great establish
ments each turning out thousands of bottles
daily of costly French wines, whereof no drop
ever came from France or smelt of grape.
And we are confident, from facts within our
knowledge, that there has never been pint OF
French Brandy imported into this country
where a large gallon has been sold as such.
So it has been, is, and will be, so long as there
shall be men unwise enough to iniiame their
stomachs and damage their health by drinking
Alcoholic Liquors. Bad as they necessarily are,
they inevitably tend by law of the universe,
to attract TO their embrace seven other devils,
"worse than the first"

The election returns from Spain which have
thus far been received by Cable are extremely
meager and unsatisfactory. We only know that
Madrid has elected Monarchsts, Seville and
Barcelona, the second and third cities of the
country, Republicans and that the Monarchists
will have large majority in the Constituent
Assembly. To-day Cable dispatch announces
that Senior CASTELAR,, one of the leaders of the
Republican party, regards Spain as having de-
clared at the recent election in favor Of Re-
public, since all the large cities except Madrid
had voted the Republican ticket In the cor
rectness OF this inference we do not concur; but
if the fact of the Republican victory in oil the
large cities except Madrid is correct, it is an
other cheering proof Of the rapid growth Of
Republican ideas Ia Spain. Our own letters
and dispatches have heretofore given US much
interesting information on the condition of the

The Hon. w. $. Lincoln has very satisfac-
torily exposed the fraud by which his frank
was forged for the benefit of certain publishers
and Others in New York, and sensibly remarks
that the only way to make the POst-Oflice De-
partment self-sustaning is to abolish franking
altogether. Mir. Lincoln then proceeds to neu-
tralize his own recommendation by declaring
that cutting off tho franking privilege will
not lessen the cost of transporting the mails,
and after administering this antldOte imme-
diately neutralizes it also, by acknowledging
that very much of the franked matter is mailed
merely because it is free, and would not he
sent at all if postage had to be paid on it. In
other words, Mr.. Lincoln thinks that it will
cost rs much TO transport five tuns of mail bags
a day Us to transport ten; an opinion i'll which
most people of common sense will not agree
with him.
