The German Peace Jubilee.

The grand and impressive religious services
In our Christian churches this day In COM
memoration Of the resurrection of the Saviour
of mankind will be followed tomorrow by the
great German Peace Jubilee. In many
respects this will be the most imposing aud
interesting civic procession ever witnessed on
Manhattan Island not only in the numbers
and variety of the regiments, squadrons. CON-
panies and societies that will participate in ii,
in the holiday glitter of war and in the more
glorious illustrations of peace, but in view of
the uniHcation of the great German family Of
European States aud Of the revival Of the
German empire as the central commanding
Power of the Continent, with the restoration
of peace between Germany and France.
This day last year France, under the Empe-
ror Napoleon, was the arbiter of Europe and
had the prestige of the FIRST military Power Of
the world, and the unity of Germany was an
unsettled and doubtful problem. To-day, pros
trate, exhausted, shorn Of her strength and Of
her whole Rhine frontier of last July, includ.
ing her largest frontier cities and her strongest
fortresses, and saddled with German indcm
nifty Of thousand millions of dollars, we find
''poor France" Not only so, but, with her
fairest provinces laid waste and reduced
to the verge of famine, we. find her
beautiful capital, the pride of the civilised
world, in the hands of a body OF
insurgents fighting for the old republic Of the
Jacobins. These things do not enter into this
days German celebration. They have finished
their war with France, and they celebrate the
restoration of peace in connection with the
grand results to Germany.
They celebrate the reclamation OF the
Rhine-''O!d Father Rhine"-''the free, the
German Rhine; they celebrate the reunion
Of the North and South German States under
the strong confederation of the German en-
pire; they celebrate the treaty Of Versailles,
which makes Germany the arbiter Of Europe
and which gives to the Germans the wide
world over something Of the political prestige
gained by the fatherland from the late terrible
war, commenced by Napoleon upon shallow
pretext but ended by Bis narck in ''the rectH-
cation of the Rhine from ier." All this and
more will be embraced in this German peace
jubilee. They do not rejoice over the mis-
fortunes of France, but over the grand results
of strength, prestige and unity from the war
which peace gives to Germany and to the
German race and name, aud to German
science and literature, and German institutions
and German security, peace, progress and
In this view this German peace
jubilee in this city will be an event long to be

There was an impression both Ia and out Of
Henry Ward Beeohers church that the edo.
quent gentleman had little or no orthodox
faithi that his religion was much of that poetic
but sceptical character which R9nan enter
tanned that he had departed from the Puritan
faith Of his fathers, and that he was mere
preacher OF morality for the sake Of the hand
some income he receives Indeed, it Is known
that respectable members of his congregation.
Of long standing, do not believe in the Cod
head or divinity of Christ in the sense that
orthodox believers do, and, if at all, only in
that sort Of poetic and mystided sense in which
the modern sceptics of the Rdnan AMI Strauss
school view the Saviour of the world. These
same sceptics, who have sat under the teach
ing Of Mr.. Beeoher for years, claim, too, that
their pastor is as much an unbeliever as they
are unbelievers. They attend the services at
Plymouth church and pay their pew rents
regularly because they are fascinated with
Mr.. Beechers eloquence and because it is
respectable and fashionable to belong to some
church, but speak with pity, at the same time,
Of the credulity of evangelical Christians.
Doubtless there are others of the Plymouth
church congre cation who do believe and have
different view of their pastor still few PEG.
pie have regarded Mr.. Beecher's preaching as
s0undly orthodox. 1t must be said, too, that
the reverend gentleman has always touched
the Godhcad Of Christ, the sacrifcial death OF
the Saviour, miracles and the resurrection
very gingerly.
The report of Mr.. Beecher's lecture in the lee
ture room of Plymouth church on the sufferings
of Christ, which was published in the HERALD
yesterday, places the renowned preacher In a
different light. Here he appears as square
orthodox Christian. No Puritan of the old
school, Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopalian
or any other of the evangelical Protestant
sects but can endorse what he says. Nor Is
he equivocal in the least. They can embrace
Brother Bcecher now in brotherly love and
unity. We do not know whether he has
always been sound and the world mistaken or
If this be q new departure in Christian doc
trine and life. 1t might be interesting to know
this as matter Of religious history but 1t
will be satisfaction to Christian communities
to learn that such distinguished preacher
has turned up all right at last. ''The glory Of
the cross" he says, sis that the incarnated
God lives on Earth and suffers in death to
bring within the reach of the lowest the real
divine nature. We believe in His name and in
the statement that He is very God" After
this confession of faith let it not be said that
Mr.. Beccher is unorthodox. It ought to
satisfy those who hold to the broadcast evan
gelsm. We regard this open confession as
important, considering the position Mr..
Beecher occupies, and hope those of his con-
gregation who have run into scepticism, think
ing they were going with their pastor, will be
properly admonshed and instructed

Tho Jewish Week of tho Passover.

On Thursday last began the important week
to our fellow citizens of the Hebrew race and
faith known as the week OF the Passover.
Thursday Qhe day Of the Passover) was the
day of preparation; Friday (Which was also
Good Friday to our Christian cliurches)
was celebrated as the day Of the Passover,
when the paschal lamb, lamb OF the
first year, without blemish, was slain and Its
blood sprinkled on the doorposts and lintels
Of the Jewish houses. This custom Is not
much observed in America, nor in large cities
anywhere. The use of lcayen or leavened
bread is absolutely forbidden during the Pass
over. Saturday (the Jewish Sabbath) has
little local significance, but is special Sab
bath among the Hebrews as connected with
Passover week. Yesterday, in the Temple
Emanuel, DR.. Adler spoke of the coming Of
this festival In the spring, and of the feast Of
Tabernacles, as Astounding each in instructive
lessons to the faithful, How glorious the
inaienable rights Of civil and religious liberty
which here in the United States belong to all
our people, and to the stranger within our
gates OF every creed and cline What happy
resting place is here for The children Of Jacob
after the thousands of years Of prosecutions
which they of their faith and race have suf-
fered IN every other country on the globe!

The Situation In France-A Sad Easter
Morn.


The Situation in France-A Sad Easter
Norn.
There is very little change in the aspect Of
affairs in France. The glorious Easter morn
ing-a day of joy, of hope and of glory for
man and to humanity-opens on scenes of
blood and carnage in that historic land. Her
sons still clutch the throats of their brothers.
The would-be parricides of their country
hesitate not to strangle each other in the
streets, around the frcsde and before the
very affairs, in the places which are already
reeking with the hearts blood of the nation.
The telegram reports which we publish to-
day are dated in Paris, Versailles and London,
ing to the moment of three o'clock this morn
ing. The advices which they present have been
anticipated, in all their essential points ofnews
by the special telegram dispatches which were
published in the HERALD yesterday morn
ing. They reiterate the very sad intelli-
gence. We are assured of the occur
renee and continuance of "terrble"
fighting at Neuilly, of barbados, and of
''rain" of shot and shells in and around Paris.
The very designation of the respective con-
testants is becoming confused. We hear of the
Versailles army, of the Nationalist, of the
Assemblies and of the insurgents, as if In

lives of the women and children are endan-
gered on all sides. The Nationalist hold the
Place Vendome; they are in the court yard of
the Palais Royal aud in front of the Church of
the Madeleine, in Paris. Insurgent Nation
alists are behind the street barbados
of the capital. They use the mitrailleuse to
repel the fierce onslaughts of the Versailles
army. The Versailles men feint to cover an
advance. The insurgents are obstinate. Paris
presents lethargic appearance at some points,
as If an incipient and partiil paralysis had
commenced to steal over her fevered and
bewildercd brain. In Marseilles the most
prominent Of the insurgent leaders have been
thrown into prison. Theirs announces govern
ment successes. Food is again short In
Paris. This materialist necessity may be
Providential visitation for unhappy France.
Marshal MacMahon has been commissioned to
the chief command of all the government
forces of the republic. In this We can almost
perceive a glimmer of hope for the nation.
Generals Ladmirauit, Cissey and Dubariel
rally around the aged chief. This is still more
hopeful. Municipal elections are to be held.
This is better STILL France still lives. The
light of life has not yet been extinguished
in her brain. She may be enabled
to prove her indestructibility by the
use Of these constitutional agencies. We hope
so sincerely, and hope it In the name fthis great
republic of civilization, the United States of

students at the universities. to the boys at the
public schools. In some of these latter
particulars it must be confessed that on this
side Of the Atlantic, Notwithstanding our
unquestioned religious tendencies, we lag
little behind We are a young people,
however, and like all other young people we
have right to be excused if our activities are
somewhat impatient Of old-fashioned re-
straints. We call the world to witness that
we do not despise Easter, but we cannot afford
to idle during Easter week.
AS we have said already in this article our
columns to-day and tomorrow will be sufficient
proof that, young aud active and impatient as
we are, we have not wholly let go the old
anchor. Christianity is real, vital thing in
the midst Of us. If it must be admitted to be
something different from the Christianity of
some of the older peoples, it must also be
conceded that it shows no discouraging signs
Of decay. Again, on this Easter morn, we
wish all our readers Joy.

Summer LabOrers.

Those who have to work in the sun
in the heat of summer will find, up
on fair trial, an incalculable advan-
tage in arranging to take their break
fast and be ready 10 go TO work soon
after daylight. Leave off work at
II o'clock. Take dinner, sleep >
hours, and begin work at three or
il might be better to stop at ono
o'clock: this will give them full
six or seven hours sleep at night
and nearly two in daytime. Thus
refreshed by sleep in the afternoon,
they will be able TO work with the
vigOr of the morning, and will cs-
cape the dreadful task of three hours
labor in the hottest part Of the day,
which is fatal TO many. Hod-carriers,
brick-masons, carpenters, and other
mechanics make a mistake when they
wait until after sunrise of summers
morning before they begin their days
work; the result being that in the
cool of the day they do nothing, and
work hard in the broiling sun at noon
during the fiercest heat ofmidsurlmer.
Many of these men may be seen any
summer day, at noon, during the
tine allowed them for dinner fast
asleep on the bare ground, which, if,
the least damp, causes them 10 wake

stiffness, ending after a while in rheu-
matism, to trouble them all through

newspaper spread under them,
would be a great protection but a

Suckers About Fruit Trees.

Every orchard not carefully watch
cd, is liable to become infested with
suckers growing about the foot of the
trees, and nothing gives a more I'M
tidy appearance. Young orchards
must be examined at least once q
year, and have all the suckers care
fully removed. For quito young
trees, this work should be done early
in spring, as cutting away any con-
siderable portion of growing wood
and leaves has tendency to retard
growth but unless the mass ofsuckcIs
is very large, it should be done low
if omitted before. From larger trees,
it is always better to take off suckers
at the present time or while the trees
are growing freely, as the work may
be more etfectually performed, and
they will be less liable to start again.
The worst thing that can be done is
cutting the suckers off with q knife
in such a way that short stubs are
left to spTout a second time. If the
sprouts are small or only one seasons
grown, they may be easily and well
removed by grasping them one at a
time with both hands, and then with
a stiff cow-hide boot place the foot
next the tree and Oh the sucker, Snd
one or two quick jerks will separate

take small gouge and mallet and
cut them off closely. When it is
thoroughly done, the" will not be
