should take the place Of love Of God. It
should be the basis Of religion. SO he says IN
the essay written between 1850 and 1858. In the
third, which dates from 1s6s-1s70, he gives the
emotions freer play, and consequently gives
some strange advice. Cultivate the reason,
he says, Judge the question calmly, but keep on
hoping that your reason is wrong, and that there
is Immortality, happiness hereafter, and 80 on.
There can be small doubt that the death Of his
wife and his ardent longing to rejoiu her after
death controlled his pen when he wrote these
words. It is not tho logical, but the
emotional, Mil who ssys: "Let reason
hold the scales evenly, and meanwhile let
hope push up one side" The mental operation
he proposes is, strictly speaking, impossible.
Our resume shows that tho three essays contain
much that is ambiguous and uncertain. Per
haps the best characterization Of Mr. Mills creed
to be culled from the whole book il that which
We have already given. He seems, in regard to
the future. to deny nothing, admit nothing,
know nothing. He goes beyond Norbert spen-
Ger. The latter believes in IN uuknowable God,
An existence without qualities. Mill neither
believes nor disbalievcs IN the Existence.

The Bishops refuse to recognize the authority Of
tho civil law Is justification Of divorce. or Is
release from the requirements OF tho Church,
which holds that there can be NO divorce save

divorce places the Episcopal Church upon sub
etantially the same ground - that occupied BY
the Roman Catholic Church. These two numer-
Gus bodies OF Christians are therefore united in
opposing with moral force the policy Of the civil
Inv Of nearly all the States of tho Union. In tho
light Of this Pastoral Letter, the civil law has
made I vide departure from the Church. Mar-
riage as understood by the Church and the mar
riage understood by the civil 1aw are widely dis
tinct. The Church holds that marriage is not -
union Of convenience, OF : matter OF civil con-
tract :" it holds that it is relaton that cannot
be dissolved by human agency otherwise than "a
Gods Word allows. The law, on the con-
traEy, regards marriage II 3 civil contract,
and nothing more; 10 bo enterod into
or dissolved with sbout the same facility that
a farmland may be hired and dismissed.
The c:;;l law treats tho religious or spiritual
character Of the marriage relation as unnece8-
eary, and ignores it altogether. It refuses to
recognize tho contract as having any moro en-
during character than any other contract, and,
upon the complaint Of either party, Offers de-
liverance unoa any one Of halt \ score of zea-
SONS. Against this la1ity Of the civil law the
Episcopal Church protests, and it warns those
who follow the civil law into unha1lowed rela-
tions thAt, when they approach tho communion
table, they profans the aacrament with their de-
fled bodies, and, instead OF partaking Of Christ,
merely eat and drink the semblance, and to their
own spiritual condemnation,
Other religious bodies have from time to time
entered spasmodic protests against the policy Of
the civil law in the matter Of divorces but out
aide Of the Roman Catholic Church and the
Protestant Episcopal Church there has been no
such authoritative action taken as to make the
law Of the Church binding upon its members,
without reference to the civil law. It Is = plain
statement that though the civil lam may divorce,

some denominations they vote in the calling and

pastors salary is large And, the arrogance Of
the ins has declined in geometrical ratio to the
growth in wealth Of the outs, there has been

heathen who should be coerced il he cannot be

preachers are beginning to see and concede, and
they act accordingly. So that the rights and

REFORM IN LITERATURE,

/ curious instance Of the influence OF cet-
tain class Of literature upon the rising genera
ton is shown by an event which happened in
New York recently. Two boys we're brought be-
fore the Toombs Police Court for having left
their homes in Boston, having previously ab-
stracted about $500 OF their parents money. 1t
seems that these preoocious young gentlemen
Jack Harkaway among the Indians, recently pub
lished in one Of Frank Lealie's numerous periodi-
calls devoted to cheap sensational Literature, and
became inspired with enthusiasm to make jour-
mythical hero in his slaughter Of buffalo and
scalping OF Indiana They had proceeded aa far
az New York, with thoir fathers in hot pursuit,
when the Law stepped in and broke up their west
ern crusade by returning the youthful and dis
gusted Don Quixotes to their parents, uhu took
them back to Boston and have undoubtedly taken
their nonsense out Of them By means familiar to
Boston boys in the habit OF disobeying their
parents.
The affair seems pnerile, il not humorous, on
the surface, but it has moral, very deep and
far. reaching, which deserves serious attention.
As Reform is the motto of the day in politics, in
religion, and society," why should the lovers Of
literature demand reform in this also? The in
1uence Of the atrocionsly illustrated newspapers
like the police gazottes. familiarizing the rising
generation NTH crimes Of every description,
should not be too lightly cstimated. They
are doing moro than any other agen-
cy to render the youthful mind cal
lous to scenes Of crime aud brutality Tho
society for the suppression OF vice is doing all
in its power to destroy Obscene literature. There
is still another class Which makes crime enticing
by throwing gloss Of romance about It. The
first defense against it's insidious influence can
be and ought to be made in the home circle, and
the efforts in this direction ought to BE- seconded
by the educators and moral teachers OF youth.
