The game yesterday between the Haymakers,
or Union, Of LansInburgh, New York, and the
Nationals, on the Nationals grounds, attracted
an immense crowd, many Of whom, however,
regretted that they travelled so far to witness a
good game and met with disappointment The
game yesterday was not only not first class bat
wss the tamest exhibition that the Nationals
have made this season. The nine they pre-
ented yesterday Is capable OF making any club
in the country lock well to its laurels, but they
must practice together, a. IL IL well kno wn
that their first nine never appear on the field
together, except on such occasions as yesterday,
and then most generally to be beaten by clubs,
whose system Of constant practice is their only
secret OF success. A spirit Of dissatisfaction
between one player and another 10 frequently
noticed also, and that too with disgust 70 the
spectators. To put In the plea that they were
dispirIted on account OF not receiving their new
uniforms is childish, and If they will only
practice together in their old ones. spectators
Will mot leave the grounds dissatisfied before
the close Of the game, as yesterday. The follow

Continent +? These facts might be urg-
ed as arguments to prove that the
expectation of a considerable enOigra-
ton is uHfounded. But John is pa
tient, long-sufering fellow, and will
endure an unlimited amount Of ill
treatment if the pay is certain.
2. What would be the effect upon
our social and political institutions -?
Thus far the vital functions of the So
eial and political organism have been
adequate to their task. The Celt, the
Teuton, the Scandinavian, the Saxon,
the Frank, have been readily assimi-
lated. In this process of assimilation
national peculiarities have disappeared.
Already there is an American race ap-
pearing-the result of manifold fu-
sings. If not Christians themselves,
they were reared in the midst Of
Christian civilization. But all these
came from Christian nations. What
can we do with horde of Asiatics-
men who are cast in heather mould !?
strangers to Christian forms of
thought and life e?-averse to Christian
feeling and sentiments? No argu-
ment is required to prove that this
would be strain as severe as unex-
pected.
Touching the result we do not spec
ulate. We are content to state grave
questions. Just now there are the
best reasons why Americans should
study the history, the character, the
of life of the Chinese people.

Passing OpportunLties.

DR.. Adam Clarke says of the con
duct of Joseph of Arimathea, In bury.
ing the body of our Lord:
WWhat number of objections would
not human prudence have made to 10.
seph's conduct, had he consulted it on
this occasion. 1t would have repre-
sented to him that 'this was to expose
himself, to bring himself into trouble,
to render himself suspected, to put
himself out of all capacity of doing
good, to ruin himself irrecOverably;
and now it could do no good to his
teacher; he is now dead, and needs no
longer any Office of kindness from
men."
'sThere is sometimes in our whole
lives but one opportunity in which
God designs signally to employ us,
and through our general backWardness
to every good work, we are for reseFv-
ing ourselves to other opportunities,
in which God neither requires nor
will accept our services :"
What solemn view does this re-
mark present to US of the responsible
ties of life. Upon the prompt and en-
ergetic performance Of duties which
may appear to us, for the moment,
comparatively of little Importance,
may depend the most mOmentous con-
sequences. By want of watchfulness,
by the slumber of conscience, or by
occasionally yielding ourselves to the
influence of some ''easily besetting
sin" what opportunities may we lose
of doing the work to which our Mas
ter calls.

senator sherman on Woman.
The following letter from Senator
Sherman, declining an invitation to
participate at the Convention of the
American Equal Rights Association,
we fud in the Revolution:
WASHINGTON, April 20, 1869.
DEAR MADAM shall not be able
to attend your Convention, as 1 wish
as soon as possible to get out of this
atmosphere Of politics into the pure
air of the country. From Congress in
to Convention is from the frying pan
into the fire. I have always favored
the most liberal laws for "WOmen's
Rights" so far as property, business,
employments, liberty and social posi-
tion are concerned. In these respects
they ought to stand on the sIme foot
ing as men; but I have seen no rea-
son to convince me that they would
be better of, or that society would be
improved by their having the right to
vote. At all events, until majority
of the "Women" concur in demanding
it, the "men" may properly stand
alOof on this question. Your mission
ary work is among your own sex (;
and am willing to encourage and
support the political discussion Of the
question, with full faith that if the
women of the United States demand
the suffrage as necessary for their pro-
lection, they viii get it.
They now make the fashions and
customs which ostracise so many OF
their own sex from healthy and use
ful employments they promote ex-
travaganee in dress, and make mar
riage a dangerous experiment for
young men without means. All these
and many other abuses -yOu are trying
to correct, and I sympathize with you,
and if suffrage would aid you in this,
would grant it. My fear is that the
right 10 vote will tend to disturb the
harmony OF society, make discOrd in
the family circle, and thus cause mach
greater evil than good.
Very truly yours,
JOHN SHERMAN.

teaching that every man carries heav-
en- or hell in his own bosom, and re-
mits TO the past fearful pictures Of Ed
wards and bis cOtempOTaries, of literal
tOrments, and a remorseless and pitf-
less God. In a word, as little salt
changes the contents Of a large vessel
of water, so Swedenborgianisrn, seem
ingly lOstin the great multitude of
churches, has more or less modified
the form Of faith ofall.
Whoever, therefore, desires to un-
derstand modern theology, and the
elements which have contributed to
its formation, has need to study the
writings Of Emanuel Swcdenborg.
Whatever minister desires to under
stand modern religious thought in his
own congregation must know some
thing Of Swedenborgianisn, though he
has not a Swedenborgian in his par
ish 1t is not likely he will ever be-
come a convert to the New Church.
It is net probable he will ever have TO
warn others against it. But he needs
none the less to be acquainted both
with its truths and its errors. In the
former he viii find much from which
he can obtain useful instruction. In
the latter he will find much which he
strives in vain 10 comprehend.
To our thought, the best work for
such investigations is SWedenbOrgs
"True Christian Religion" It is to
.Swedenborgianism what Calvin's Elm
stitutes'A are to Calvinism. 1t affords
the entire theology Of the New Church
in an authentic and authoritative form.
OF course, he who desires to familiar
ize himself with that theology viii in
vestigate special doctrines further in
special treatises. But ne who desires
simply to have in a comprehensive
form the general teachings of Sweden
borg, has them in these two handsome
volumes. They are far better for the
student than any mere modern treat
ises by subsequent writers. For,
though SwedenbOrg has many enthusi-
'astic followers, be has produced no
original thinkers. We have found
very little value in the works Of his
disciples, save as they translate into
modern phraseoIogy the thoughts Of
their leader. To gather those thoughts
from the library Of volumes he gave to
the world requires painstaking
study that few but his disciples have
the patience to give. But every Cath
Olic theOlogian who desires to trace
theology to its source, and to ae-
quaint himself with the teachings of
other churches than his own, should,
if his means enable him to do so, make
room for this work upon his library
shelves.
This work is very handsomely
printed, as indeed are nearly all of the
books issued by the Messrs. Lippin-
colt, and it will make a handsome ad-
ditiOn to any library.
