The real condition of Spain, notwithstand-

appear a perfectly reckless expenditure of

as no rent was due up TO tho beginning of the dis

TO those proceedings, and there was no reason WHY
the Court should interfere by injunction restraining
their prosecution, especially the statute provides
that those proceedings shall not be stayed by the

The Rev. George H. lIcpworth who las made
himself rather conspicuous in the controversy on
the secterian school question, does not seem to
be as good scholar nor as conscientious de

him in his church, on the corner Of Fourth ave-
nuc and IhiIiy-iourth street, he read what lie

been forced TO acknowledge that he never saw it

it by a worse name. Of this proceeding merits
the reprobaton of all fair-minded men. If the
