Coleridge, in his later manhood, ex-
pressed his sorrow at having written
SO shallow q sentiment on the subject
of prayer as that contained in one of
his youthful poems, in which, speak
ing of God, he said:
-"Of whose all-seeing eye
Aught TO demand were impotence of mind"
This sentiment he so severely con.
demued that he said he thought the
act of praying to be, in its most perfect
form, the very highest energy of
which the human heart was capable.
The large majority of worldly men
and of learned men he pronounced in
capable of executing his ideal of
prayer.-StiU Hour.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-Are our churches anything

theological differences are often so slight that it
is scarcely worth while to attempt to define
them. The Catholics believe in nearly all Of the
thirty-u,ne articles, and nearly thfrty-nine more.
It ia said that in this diversity OF taste and ideas
there is unity that this variety OF church Or
gsnization is called for not go much by the var1-
ety Of beliefs as by the vario ramifcations OF
society. God created man as the grasses OF the
field. not one exactly like another. That he
should seek his like is nothing strange that bis

CHICAGO, Oct. At ia not the fact Of the ex-
clusion Of the Bible from the Chicago schools
that the patrons OF these schools dread, SO much
es it is the fesr thas all moral as well as re-
lieious instruction il likely to be excluded by
the same logic as that which prohibits the read
ing of the Blbie It is alleged by the advocates
Of Bible exclusion that religion and ethics
should be taught at home and IN the Sabbath,
writ1nr ara to be attended to exclu-
sively in the schools. But I predict
that when the tina comes that all ref
erence to good morals aud the founds-
ton principlee OF religion in the common schools
will be put under ban, Proteatants will join
Roman Catholics in demanding that syatem
which has, in their opinion, lost ite highest use-
fuluess snaN coma to an end. Protestant people
viii prefer to sand their Sons and daughters to
schools where religion and morals are regarded
as an important element OF education, and where
the atmosphere Of culture is favorable to the
formation Of correct habits Of thought and life.

LEAVE IT ONT.

10 thu Editor Of The Chicago Tri5u's:
CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-The Bible has not been e1-
PEELED from the public schools, any assertions to
the contrary notwithstanding. 1t is there still,
and any scholar or teacher ia privileged to take
it there and keep it there, reading it privately,
according to his or her own pleasure. The only
restriction placed upon it is in regard to the pub
lie reading of it, taking the time belonging to
other studies. In other words. it has ceased to
be q reading book textbook. The Board of
Education has perfect right to prescribe the
course Of study and change textbooks when it
seems for the interest of the schools. The Bible
bsd been read 20 much that the children had got
tired OF it and indifferent to its reading, AMI, as
the teachers were not allowed to comment upon
its meaning, the scholars we're gaining no new
information from its pernsnl. No book should
be allowed in the public schools as reading or
text book concerning whose contents the teacher
was absolutely prohibited from comment and ez-
planation. IL. q. ..
