t Quietly and already quite effectuaIly the
churches Of the United States AID Canadas have
adopted g uniform series at Sunday School
lessons. These lessons begin at 'tthe begin
ming" (gen. y, and there is no telling where and
and the religious press generally are giving
weekly comments on the various themes in tho
prder Of their coming. It is ead that more chill
dren are now perusing the same lessons from
The mornl influence Of these hundreds Of thou
sands Of teachers and scholars, all thus engaged,
is very great, and the best Of it all is, that it is
in the direction Of 3 universal charity and
brotheIhood, through q common Father and
Redeelner. The demand for commentaries on
anent on the lesson for to-dny (Csin and .AbcD is
taken from the Montreal Witness. It will bear
reading second time: .
No hare in this Lesson. the introduction Of one Of
continuity al through Scripture: on the one und, the
blood q Abel crying to God from the ground,-re-
ancmbered nsatnst the generation which rejected
txrs-and quoted by Paul yet speaking, in his
discourse the fath of departed WORTHLESS; On tho
bood ot sprnEus which apesEetl better things than
khs blood Of Abel. The blood Of man, meaning aim
ply bis mortal lfe is precious in Gods sight see Gen
terial world. In like manner, the life Of the
soul is exceeding precious in Gods night. To what
tent Abel understood the meaning and precioueness OF
TIE blood which ceanseth from al sin cannot
certain. We only told that 'by faith he offered
zrore excellent sacrifice than Cain, BY which he Oh
taine witness taa he righteous, God tesfftng Of

Christ, who calls him righteous Abel" His right

Of his sacrifice, to which God hnd respect. Al
aot suppose that the idea Of offering LIMB to God
originated with man, may conclude that in
e1lctons the use OF this important emblem had
been rlre.dy impaired, and that Abel was following
such Instructions and Cain ignoring them.

Tue relation which the Church should GUS
tain to the popular auaugements Of the day, and
Just how far and where church-nnember should
60, has always been subject upon which there
has not been tho most perfect harmony, and
certainly not in large Cities and especially in
Chicago. This is what tho Rev. DR.. John Hall
has Just said about it:
It wonld be better for the Church, as Church. not
to take action, formally or informally upon this mat
ter Of amasc1nents Christian ministers would find it
well to absain from discriminating which is good,
which Is bad, and whom innocent becomes sinful
game. Such presehng only uaagniaes and e1alts that
mere negative goodness that boasts itself in it's self
denals, and nakes religion lie largely in what one
never does. People do not need right on this and
kindred matters much principle; they require
not direction, hut vigorous spiritual life and it IS the
latter that the preacher is called upon to urge and
courage in hin 1ninistrations-

CLOSE COMMUNION.

Tho Standard Of this city, the Baptist organ Of
the Northwest, has made q short aud terso reply
to the late new style Of argument advanced by
the United Presbyterian On the subject Of close
communion. The following is what the Pres
| bylerian said:
There must be some orerweening, passionate wish
for visible communion With the Baptists. They Ad-
here TO baptism By Immersion and think tho e1nbera
Of the Church they who, having profeesed their
to be great host outside rho arc not happy
because they cannot Eit down with these brethren and
who positively abuse them because they do not aak
them IN. It Is Special compliment to inmeraonist
Christian character. It proves also tho misfortune Of
those who try to kiss their brethren through the bars,
but cannot; and who therefore, Band outside, fret
ting and chafug and finally stor,uing, they would
these atter do finally conclude to open their gatea,
they oughtto be advised 10 do it cautiously for there
will be such reh at them Of long haniahed brethren
viii be embarrassing.
To which the Standard replies:
this aQi5 from the P,esbyteian thsn In the usual
age assaults upon the .B1ptists by the Podohaptst
press and pulpit Thcse delightful brethren como ut
something after the style Of England, when few
years ago. with her long guns ahe opened China to the
reception Of her opium. John Chnaman said, " We
do not want your poisonous drug" John Bull replies,
.' 1t mikes no difference what you want, you shalt
have The stuff" The Baptists do NOT believe It right
charitable to commune with unbapized believers,
and thereby sanction the preventing Of Christn CON-
1nand- The pedohaEtist World says. It makes no
difference what your conscientious convictions
opened to us."

III honey AND COMMERCE.


FRIDAY EVENING, Jan Is.
The enow-storm seriously .intezfered with
business during the last haif OF this week. In
fact, the whole month Of January has been 30
stormy that it has several times nearly stopped
the progress Of everything connected with trade
except the maturing Of notes, which stops for
neither wind nor enoW. The marketing OF pro-
ducts, the sale of goods, and the collection OF
debts in tho country, has been interrupted to 30
great an extent, that merchants in general
have had Encouraging season. and it is not
at all surprising that many Of them are
hard pressed to meet their engagements. The
eloct Of the interruption to business is percept-
ble in the increased demand for accommodation,
and in the decrease in the deposits at the banks
that have large lines Of mercantile accounts. Wo
hear Of one prominent bank that has lost 25 per
cent Of it's aggregate deposits in this way since
the first OF January. 4 good many other banks
have also experienced large decline in their de-
posits. though not to so great an extent as the
one referred to. In this csse it showed
that the depositors we're wealthy and
had tho money to their credit to
draw, whereas, in the case OF other banks, the
pressure has been felt in tho way Of an Increase
In the demand for accommodation.
The usua1 monetary ease caused by the dis
bureement Of interest and dividends has not
been experienced this year, and it can now
scarcely be expected there will be much i'm
proYement until the advent Of mi1der weather
permits trade to resume its usual activity, and
until the railroads carry or greater portion Of
the surplus products accumulated hero and in
tho country.
In the open market there seems to be conaid-
ezablo money to loan at 10 to u por cent per an
mum for short time and on frst-class collatorala,
but commercial paper is difficult to negotiate,
and rates are nominally per cent per month,
with but little doing at that.
Exchange Was sold At 75c and 900 per 81 1000
discount between banks to-day:
