A DIFFICULT PASSAGE EXPLAINED.

The Rer +. S. DaVis at the Pilgrims Baptist Church
The Rev. p. S. Davis preached yesterday at
the Pilgrims Baptist Church in Thirtythird-st, near
Eighth-ave His text was "And say also unto thee
that thou art Peter. and upon this rock viii build my
church. and the gates of hell shall not prevail against
it,"
This said the preacher, is confessedly difficult pas
sage and il has caused much controversy. There have
been as many arguments in all ages and many views
EXPRESSED upon this subject there have been writers.
1t not my intention TO those views or TO reute
sucn OF them a. consider erroneous nor TO preach
pOlemica discourse. i shall c0nfine myself 10 stating
consider to be the true Interpretation OF tins
There are three things stated In regard to the Church
of Christ VIZ: The basis upon which it is built, the
who designs and erects the edhce and the
the foundation upon which the church is built
Christ said: II say unto thee that thou art Peter,
and on this rock / shall build my church." The
word crock" cannot have been applied 10 Christ
himself, for there is no reason TO suppose that
polntiDC TO Himself, added, land this rock will
build my Church." 1t cannot be applied 10 Peter
confession. for it is absurd to say that church Is Dut
on "a confession OF a truth. The confession OF truth
can be the foundation OF creed, but not OF church.
Neither the term be applied 10 Peters supremacy
There fact by which 10 prove that ne was the chle
apostle to preach the Jews andGentles, and 10 de-
serve the title rock above the others; nor does he him
self assume that title. Another view OF the question
and believe the true one, ia that the term is applied to
Peter and TO all believers TO the end OF time. What
Peter copfesses here he SAYS in behalf OF all the apostles
and what is said him Is SAID TO all of them The ques
ton is, Who do ye that am r. and not "whO dost
thou, Peter. say that L aml" The question was
nut all apostles and the answer is collective
one. Ordinary saw in Jesus only good man, but
the disciples had His divine nature revealed 10 them
"Who men say that am I" asks Christ and Peter re-
plies, "some say thou art Elias; others, one OF the
prophets" Then comes the question And who do We
sentation of the Apostolic College is, Thou art the
Christ the son OF the living God" This question was

Yesterday the HERALD referred to
the probable early extension Of the
Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Com
pany's lines from their present ter
minus in the head of the San Joaquin
valley on to San Fernando, thus Civ
ing US competing line of telegraph
to San Francisco, and some reference
was made to the reduction of rates on
messages and the consequent large in
crease in the volume of private busi-
ness. We now call attention to an
other great advantage which will re-
suit to not only this city but to all
Southern California through the ex-
tension of the new company's lines.
We shall receive news dispatches over
which the Associated Press have no

Increased Postal Facilities.

Los Angeles has grown; her post
office has remained in Stdtu quo.
While the city has doubled and treb-
bled in population the postoffice facil-
tiles have increased so slightly that
the oldest inhabitant scarcely marks
the change. We are disposed to muir
mur at the tardiness, indifference and
neglect of the Government in postal
affairs generally, and those of Los
Angeles in particular. Postmaster
BENT no doubt accomplishes all that
can be done with the means and force
he is allowed, but the result is not
satisfactory, and the Government is
to blame for it. Los Angeles post
office furnishes twenty thousand peo-
pie with their mail matter. The gen.
eral delivery is done under one head,
by one clerk, through one port-hole.
JOHN ADAMS and SARAH WATKINS
range in the same line and await the
action of the same clerk. The force is
too light by half. The Postmaster
should have twice as many clerks,
and the facility for delivering mail
should be more than double what it is
at present. For the convenience of
the public the general delivery alpha
bet should be divided, and Mr.. ADAMS
and Mrs. WATKINS should never
stand in the same line. We have no.
ticed ladies standing from fifteen min
utes to three-quarters of an hour,
awaiting an opportunity to reach the
general delivery. This should not be
in an office on which so many people
are dependent for mail accommoda-
tions. The General Postoffice will
please heed these remarks and act ac-
cordingly.

THE MONTE BUSINESS.
How Ii Is Practiced and Punished (:)
ON the Central Pacific Railroad
what u Correspondents h nOws
About this Gamblers NeariOus
Practices-SOme Sound Ideas.

EDITOR HERALD: In your weekly
paper Of the Sth inst, I notice a refer
ence to Canada BILL" and the gam
bling business, for which Omaha and
the Central Pacific Railroad are so
scandalously distinguished. The cul-
prits-gamblers and dupes-were all
punished alike in the case you men,
ton, though the one had lost 81 800,
which another had won. This, /
found, was the practice of the local
Courts when visited Omaha in Jan
uary, 1878; and no practice can be
more unjust or better calculated to in
crease and perpetuate the evil of
which the public complains than that
of fining all the offenders slightly and
alike. There are two explanations of
this system possible one that the
Judges are so simple as never to have
thought of a more efficient way of
checking the offense; the other that
the officers of the law, and notably
the Judge, are anxious not to kill the
goose that lays the golden egg, as
they would certainly do if they
adopted the rational procedure of pun
ishing crime which is daily brought
before them in such a way as to deter
the criminals from offending again.
These Judges lay especial stress on the
offense against the law committed by
the poor dupe. They do not exactly
applaud the scoundrels who have art
fully inveigled him into their tolls,
but (Which amounts to the same
thing they reiterate to him that sit
serves him right" 1t would appear
that the law in such hands aimed to
touch the old offenders as lightly as
possible, but to punish thoroughly
the poor simpleton, and take from
him what little money he might have
remaining, lest he should induce 9TH
ers into the same crime if he had any
left! 1t is almost strange the Court
does not remit the fine altogether to
the veteran offenders, and commend
them for performing an important
public service in administering useful
lessons in morality to persons who
need them!
The person who incites others into
crime by carefully studied and de-
| signing schemes, is surely more cul-
pable than the dupe who is imposed
upon. 1t is alleged that all the of
tenders are equally guilty of wrong
doing = guilty, yes; equally guilty.
no. L have seen this game of monte
| so played by these wretches that men
who would never stoop to any delib-
crate wrong or dishonest dealing
would join in with the idea that the
foolish fellow was throwing away his
