ENGIIsH MISSIONARIES IN CHrNA.-What be-
tween opium and !" Evangelism" the English
contriye to have constantly on hand somep point
Of controversy with the Chinese. Referring to
a recent cause of dispute, the London Times
thus refers to the men who are sent forth 'sto'
convert the EARTH: -
< These missionariesare not generally men pre-
pared for SO great aud so delicate a work. They,
have been educated, of course, after o fashion,
but they are not men who would be called "ed-
ucated In any literary circle of this country.
They are men generally with confirmed pre-
judiee elanat AL traditions, all philosophy, and
every spiritual or preternaturaf doctrine act
expressly and distinctly revealed. They look
into their Bibles, and they don't find there
either the Chinese ancestry or the Chinese in
tellectual system. AS the Chinaman is perfectly
satisfied with his own system, and finds it con-
venient rs well rs plausible and harmonious,
he ressts the introduction of foreign ideas,
which, as he thinks, would only unsettle him
IN coarse and brutal way he carries the war
into the enemy's country by insulting his faith.
But is it at all necessary that there should be
either this attack or this consequent recoil3 In
the sacred record we read that the first preach
ers of our faith had to present themselves every
where, among idolators, philosophers, barbara
ans, civilized men, Jewish seetaFians, and every
variety of faith and opinion. Yet it is imposai-
BILE to find n single Expression in their recorded
discourses and conversations otherwise than

ed to every belief and every feeling not as false
and hateful, to be condemned and destroyed,
but as the foundation on which their own bet
ter teaching was to be raised, and with which
1t did, in fact, fuse itself
This is ali very well. But is it fair to expect
tho preachers to bo superior to the doctrines
which lie ct the foundation of their systemi
AS their Bible contains all truth and all besides

How THE LAND GoEs.-The Secretary of
the Interior informs the Senate that up to
the 3Oth Of January, 1867, Congress had
given away-mainly to Enthusiastically
one and half million acres of land, and
that since that time FIVE and half millions
more have been added to the list. And yet
the New York Tribune thinks that this is
not complete account. It asks: 4" Will
"not Congress call for more particular
statement, showing, first, how much land
"hss been given away up to this time !;
"second, how much more is involved in the
Z" bills now pending and, third, how much
"good land We have left ?" We would like
to add to this the further inquiry, How
" much of all the land donated to these
"objeots has been given to the South ?"
This would be fair and proper, not merely
for the qualification of any sectional feel
ing, but to place before Congress basis
for future action should that body be dis
posed to make some amends for the glaring
partiality which infamed the discomfort of
the South and helped on secession.

ADJUSTMENTS IN New YoRK.-When we
first knew New York it had TWO theatres
the Park and the Bowery. They werc
maintained rather poorly. We have seen
FORREST in the Park playing to house for
from full. And thus the Taste for public
entertainments continued until about '46,
when it took fresh start, and in 1850,
under the skill and taste Of BURTON, 1t
began to blaze out. Since then tho opera
has been well established, and the number
of theatres has increased amazingly. II ia
estimated now that between twcnty-six and
twenty-seven thousand people nightly at
tend places of amusement in New YORK.
In 1887 we do no. suppose tho number
exceeded 1000 or $500

From the P,cbmond Christian Advocate


We feel satisfied that the potent infiu-
ence of the northern Methodist Church will
be brought to bear on Congress to prevent
the removal of this church-property clause
from the Underwood constitution, and most
likely the northern church may win the
fight but if so, it will be won against
truth and right and justice. The people
who gave their money to build the houses
of worship and the parsonages in dispute
have the unquestionable right to them, and
we believe the large proportion of sober
thinking people in the North are opposed to
allthis bother and litigation about churches,
when perhaps all the members but half q
dozen have placed themselves under the
care of the southern church, and desire to
be allowed peaceably TO worship God in
their own way and under their own vine

FxACTLY.-The new rulers in Alaska
have already gotten up an Indian War-as
we expected. Yet Russia, the empire with
the "iron rod" maintained its sovereignty
over the country without expensive and
barbarous contests" with the natives.
Even Mr.. GREELEY notices this reproach-
fully to the Americans. If they cannot
be as kind and conciliatory as the Russians,
he advises them to "leave the Esquimaux
to take care of themselves" That is what
they will not do. What, give up the con-
tracts for arms, for commissary stores, and,
furthermore the sutlery business, and the
numerous other jobs which grow out of an
Indian war, with its fine opportunities for
swindling the Government and wipipg out
all testimony that may detect frauds :? By
no means. Alas, poor Indians of Alaska
You must meet your fate. 1t is but rea-
sonable that few hundreds of you should
be yearly sacrificed to the god of greed.
Indeed, there Is no help for it; you must.

want it only on such terms as other
Churches in the South have it. We want
only to be let alone, to be recognized as o
Christian people, entitled to the rights and
amenities commonly granted by one de-
nomination to another. The Methodist
Episcopal Church might have had not only
peace, but unity with us, if after the war
they had shown q spirit of brotherly Kind
ness and charity. But they set themselves,
under the guidance Of their cleuer bishops,
to make the gulf between us impossible,
and they have done it; and they have
brought "leanness to their own souls !" y,

Christianity.

Parties that are to be.

We have ever contended that the party
Of the Revolution must die soon after it
that 1t canno. long survive the end Of thai
which created it. It is indispensable te
peace that it should die. As long as it ex.
lists, we must have the passions Of which II
Was born disturbing the public quiet and
obstructipg the way to harmony. 1t has
already extended beyond it's natural term
BY force OF circumstances which made i
necessary to prolong the hatreds and pre-
JUDGES Of the war as capital in the nationa
elections.
Rut the day of it's death is come. Gene
raj GRANT has throughout endeavored In
every manner to subdue the feelings OF
sectional hostility, and has even gone 30 far
as to waive away from him the emblems OF
strife. He was the selected candidate Of the
party of the Revolution but he is saga
cious enough to know that there can be no
peace and no successful administration o!
the Government as long as the passions OF
war are infamed. In frowning them down
he sets aside the party itself and opens the
way for the formation of parties suited to
the coming circumstances of the country,
united and peaceful. The New York Times
we'll says: "The political parties OF the
future ,oiu be created mainly by the policy
,ohich General Grant may adopt in his ad-
ministrution.'
The World (of New York; bad sought to
make it appear that General GRANT would
probably be opposed By the Republican
party Mt the outset of his administration.
The Times replies, contendipg that there is
no probability of such a thing. 1t confesses
that he was nominated by the moderate
portion of the Republican party against
the wishes "of the self-styled leaders" of
that party and it goes on to say that III
his administration he "triW look to the
"great body of the people, rather than to
"any mere party. for that support and
approval ,oithout sohich a successful
administration of the Government is i'm
"poSsible." We have not the slightest
doubt of the truth of this statement. Look
ing to it, and to the further remark of the
Times that "the questions likely to arise
land command the most attention are not
"those upon arhich political parties haze
"hitherto been most sharply divided" VIC
have plainly the grounds for the new mo-
tives, the new afinities and repulsions,
which must reform parties, and amidst
which the party of the Revolution must
pass away. The GRANT administration
will not be deserted by majority Of the
Radicals, and we think it more than proba-
BILE that the Times is in some degree right
in predicting accessions to General GRANT
from the Democratic party; probably
enough to make up for his loss by the
exfoliation of the ultra members of
the revolutionary party. Many of them
are SO fond of the arbitrary authority
which conspiracy of events and natural
passion for domination placed in their
hands that they will not tacitly submit to
it's surrender. They will stand like the
debris of q food-of very little use, and to
be removed as soon as time and means will
allow.
