The Lie OF CHRISTI

For Tux BULLETIN.
Learned and devout men have. from
time to time, written and published,
either entire or fractional parts of what
might be termed THE life of Christ"
We call to mind, at this moment,
such efforts in that direction, as the
following Historical Lectures on
the Lite Of our Lord Jesus Christ BY
Ellicott; The Life of our Lord upon
Earth by Andrews The Christ of
History by Young The Last Days
Of Jesus by Moore ;-Fleetwood's Life
OF Christ; aud The Life OF Jesus the
Christ by Beecher." All these works
are elaborate, containing much that
IS commeudable and good. They
are truthful, Suggestive, aud to tho
casual reader, instructive. They aim
to give freshness and attractiveness
to the New Testament history, and, if
possible, lend new interest to its pa
ges. Suggestions, comments and re-
marks" contribute to the quantity and
quality of these volumes.
Fully aware of, and freely nc.
knowledging the ability of, all
these writer's we, nevertheless, can
not help expressing our opinion,
that the best "Lifc Of Christ
ever written, is the one fur
nished us by the four Evangelists.
For completeness, accuracy, simplicity,
point and sincerity, 1t certainly stands
alone. Properly viewed, it is snaly-
teal, expository and exhaustive. Every
phase of Christ's life, from the msnger
to the cross,--the cross to the tomb
and the tomb to the Mount of Ascen.
sion, is fully brought out. Eye-wit-
nesses are the recorders ear-witnesses
are the compilers. An everyday, home
like familiarity with the places,
scenes aud events, intimately connected
with Christs life and ministry, gave to
these writers unusual facilities. They
knew whereof they affirmed they were
credible witnesses, having never been
impeached, and it is not possible for
any man to improve upon these records
Of the life OF Christ, however devout and
gifted he may be.
We are not to be understood, by the
foregoing, as intimatiug or inferring
that any modern writer has presumed to
improve upon the 'Evangelists' Life
Christ What We desire to say is, that
the first Life of Christ is the best one. |
He would be a prodigy marvel in-
deed who could take his brush in
hand and add lustre, beauty and finish
to the painting OF the Great Masters.

No, we are not estopped from taking

the campaign, to defend that measure.
We do not fear the civil rights bill for
the reason given by the negro hating
people who see in it a scheme TO make
the negro the social equal of the white
man. Legislation cannot do that. But,
after having investigated the sub.

which the Opposition shall be united,

to make almost any sacrifice to secure

pressed our preference for MIR. Taylor :;
but for Mr.. Hartzel, of Randolph or
