over again, in all forms of expression
and explanation, he tells us that
Christ's body is indeed locally IN
heaven only, and in no sense lncinded
in the elements, and yet
that our communion with Him, not
withstanding by the power. OF the
Holy Ghost, invovelsa realpartlclpatlon
not in his doctrine merely-not IN
the sensible manifestations OF His love
merely-not in His righteousness and
merits merely-not in the gifts and
endcwments of His spirits merely; but
in His own true substantial life itself,
for us men and our salvation. -
"Mystical Presence" page 69.
Take the Gallo Confession of 1863,
which some have supposed to have
proceeded from the pen of Calvin.
The confession teaches that Christ
sthus feeds and nourishes us with
flesh and blood, that being made one
with Him we may have with Him
common life.
"For, although He is now in heaven
and will also remain there till He
shall come to judge the world, we
believe, notwithstanding. that through
the secret and 1ncomprehensible
clcISf VI Lilo oplI1G, dppISiiOAS1Oo W
faith, He nourishes and WHITES us by
His body and blood. We say, how
ever, that this is done spiritually, not
as substituting thus an imagination
or thought for the power of the fac,
but rather because this mystery of our
! coalition with Christ is SO sublime
that it transcends all our senses, and
so also the whole course of nature"
Hn, ba IF n
real presence" in full force in the
Westminster confession-which be-
| longs to the middle of the seventeenth
century.
"NVorthy receivers, outwardly par
taking of the visible elements in this
sacrament, do them inwardly also by
faith, really and indeed, yet not car
nally or corporally, but spiritually, re-
and all benefits of his death, the body
and blood of Christ being then not
corporally or carnally in, with or I'M
der the bread and wine, yet really and
spiritually present to the faith of be
levers in that ordinance, as the ele-
mcnts themselves are to their outward
senses"
SO, too, the same real presence is SET
forth Ill questions los anu 1iO OF Tie
larger catechism.
And thus we see that the doctrine OF
the real presence is true Protestant
doctrine-that it is in no sense doc.
trinc peculiar to the Church of Eng
land, or the Protestant Episcopal
Church, but that it is essentially 6
scriptural doctrine, and Protestant.
If there be those who fault us fol-
holding it, let them look to themselves
for the sacramental doctrine, as held
constantly and taught always by oul
own Church, is set forth in mucl
stronger language in their confessions
! catCciiSms and dOctrinal standards.

WORSE AND WORSE.

1t is said that the children and other
legatees of the late Chief Justice Chase
will lose all the personal property
beqneathed to them by the failure OF
the Cookies. Through his favor, kind
ness, and protection, the Cookies were
enabled to rise from obscurity to posi-
ton, and from poverty to great wealth.
Had they been content with these
prosperous and powerful. Greedy of
vaster fortune, they recklessly blum
dered, speculated, and fell, involving
thousands i'll their ruin.
The Chief Justice had no faith in
Henry ID. Cookies ability, but he be
lievcd him to be honest, and made
him the executor of his last will and
testament. That sacred trust is now
answered by shameful sacrifice of
duty All that he could reach has
and this is but one example of humid
penalty for such crimes?-New York
Sun.
THE FAILURE OF JAY COOKE i cos Ma
TIoNAL RANK-TuE PRESIDENTS DE
PosIT.
WAsHISGroS. Sept. 25.-It is author
itatively stated to-day that there will
be no statement Of the condition of the
First National Bank before Saturday,
and probably not then. The receiver.
Mr.. Stanton, was asked to-day what he
thought the First National Bank would
pay. He replied, That depends alto
gether on what Jay Cooke & Go, pay
the First National Bank" 1t is said
that the amount drawn out of this
bank and sent to Jay Cooke Il Co.'s
Philadelphia house was over one mil
lion dollars. The valuable property OF
IL. ID. Cooke III Georgetown was con
veyed to his wife more than two years
ago.
There is good deal of speculation
i'll regard to the deposits Of the Prcsi-
dent and several other prominent off
Gals with the First National Bank
1t is claimed that whatever funds
the President had there were
special deposits. 1t is difficult 10
understand how this can be. He
gave the bank a power of attorney to
draw bis salary quarterly, and it was
placed to his credit in the bank. Sew
eral of the Justices of the Supreme
CoiIG ttItt TIC StIllt. i ms WAS certainty
nothing more than an ordinary depo it,
and should not intitle the dcpositors to
any special privileges. However, it is
currently reported Oh the streets that
the receiver has said that these fortu-
nate individuals will not suffer because
their deposits We're special. The I'M
preston very generally prevails that
there will be unfair dealing of some
kind i'll winding mp the affairs Of this
bank, and this tends to aggarvatc the
i'll feeling which exists among the sui
ferers.
The effects of the disturbed money
market are beginning to be felt here
Ill every direction. One of the heaviest
dry goods merchants i'll this city said
to-day that since the failnre Of the
Cookies he had not been doing business
enough to pay rent. All the surplus
money had already been locked up by
the Ring in their worthless certificates. |
and now there is scarcely enough in
for market purposes -

TRUcKEE CITY, New, September T.
Andy Puget, carpenter, and Jack |
White, a miner, fought duel night |
before last with six-shooters. a feud |
had existed between the men for some |
time and Few days ago when they |
met on the depot grounds Puget said:
eve might as well settle our trouble |
here. Draw and defend yourself.
White said he was not armed, and
Puget said he believed him liar. The
men then separated with the under
standing that they would fight the first
time they met. Night before last the
men again met on the corner OF Main
street ana little alley running up
into the Chinese quarter. They had
no sooner recognized each other than
the battle began. There were several
persons IN the neighbOrho0d, but no
one Who saw the shooting could tell
who fired the first shot. Puget is
s ", 10 have been approaching Main
street from thc alley, and was met by
white, who was passing along the
Sidewalk. When the firing began
Puget placed himself behind IN avn
ing post al the corner Of the street and
allcy, while White stood on the side
walk.
The firing was very rapid; 50 rapid,
indeed, that many who hcardit thought
that more than two men We're engaged
in the shooting. The majority OF those
who were in the nciGhborhood when
!lc shooting began ran away rs fast as
their legs would CARY them ; but two
or three men, who sought shelter in
the iron dOOrwayS OF Blirkhaltar's
store, stood their ground land witnessed
| the whole battle White fell first, and,
striking on the edge Of the sidewalk,
| rolled into the gutter about eighteen
inches in depth. FACET fell about the
same time, seemingly from the effect
OF Whites last shot, rolling into the
same gutter il which White vas lying,
and at 10 great distance from him.
