BALTIMORE Oct. 12.-Protestant Episcopal
Observation-Disclosures of the Bishops in
Council, October IL, 1871: We, the subscribed
bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church in
the United States, being asked, in order to the
quieting of the consciences of sundry members
Of the said church, do declare that in our

the subject of baptism is wrought by the sacra-
ment-
This declaration is signed by all the bishops.
The Episcopal church is religious rid

but, still, it has always been puzzle to
our common sense and, every day, it is
becoming more amazingly pulling. Its
general name is tse Episcopal church but
its specific name,-who can tells For it
has SO many. By some it is called the
Protestant Episcopal church by others, q
catholic church by others, the Anglican
church by others, A Branch of the Catho-
lie church. Its name changes according to
the special opinions of its individual mem
berr. 1t names itself, officially, " The Pro-
testant Episcopal church,"-though in its
creed it makes an act of faith Gin the holy
Catholic church ;"-and, yet, we begin to
suspect whether it has the right to name
itself or not; for its members, high and
low, take strange liberties with its name.
1t meets its members and says "I am the
Protestant Episcopal church." And many
of them answer and say: "No-you are no
such thing, you are catholic - - and
others" by no means, you are a branch
of the church catholic" This, to say the
least, creates great deal of confusion, and
ought to, if it does not, disquiet many con-
sciences. We, outsiders, look on and listen
and think thus with ourselves -" Either

Night Scenes in the Bible.

Many of the most affecting and impor-
tant scenes described in the Bible. trans
pired under the splendOrs Oforiental night.
Sodom and Egypt, Beersheha and Babylon,
Carmel and Gilboa, Olivet and Emmaus,
Jerusalem and the sea ofGalilee, have each,
by night. been witnesses of the power and
glory of the omnipotent Jehovah.
The author of Might Scenes in the BIZ
ble," has followed the shadow of night
across the landscape Of divine revelation,
and grouped together the sacred scenes
which are made awful or impressive by
the mantle of darkness.
He has succeeded in bringing to light
"new and beautiful gems ron the mine of
bible truth" and has produced "A delight
full volume The leading clcrgymen of
the country have given it their most cor
dial approval AS a 'charming" and lin
structive" work.
The style in which it is published eXcels
anything it has been our privilege to ex-
anime. The steel engravings by the first
artists of the country are perfect gems of
art :" We have space to describe bat two
of them. The first is THE Night Watch
in Mount SER" Beside one of the noun
tain passes, with grand peaks towering,
crag upon crag. on either side, stands the
watch-toWer. with its solitary Waterman.
Just through the pass can be seen the
first bright streaks of approaching dawn.
At the foot of the pass, wholly shaded by
the overhanging crags. Il party of travel
ers are encamped. They cry out to the
Waterman: "Watchman, what of the
night and down through the pass comes
revcrbcrating that cheering cry: ''The
morning cometh." Again we pass on
down the ages to the time when the long
looked-fnr morning had come, and the Son
of Righteousness had arisen with healing
in His beams. Before us is a lone noun
tain side, and a PROSTATE form kneeling on
its uncushioned rock. The pale moon
beams creep among the crags, Just reveal
ing their ba%rrenncss, the stars shine dimly
overhead; a huge night-bird flaps his
wings and alone breaks the stiffness of the
midnight hour; but glory surrounds the
loWly torm-it is Jesus, TOR lit came to
pass in those days that He went out into II
mountain to pray. and continued all night
III prayer to God" 1t was q sublime scene.
and the representation before us tends to
awaken the most devout reflections.
We love to dwell upon the scenes por-
trayed in these illustrations; and we feel
that no one can fail to be benefited, boil,
by these truthful and impressive pictures,
and by the earnest words of the writer,
Let parents, who wish to have their chill.
dren love the Word of God, and under.
stand its lessons OfWisdom and love. secur!
