Tho Pulpit anu Tho Press.

From the N. Y. POst)
We often hear II said that the increase
Of the power of the press is interfering
very much with the influence Of the pull
pit, and that while our people can have
the best thoughta land culture Of the nation
and The world brought to them they are
less inclined to 60 to church and listen to
preachers Of the ordinary standard.
There IL probably some truth in the opin.
ion that the pulpit has suffered somewhat
from this cause, and that great many
persons In town and country now stay at
home from church and read the current
newspapers and magazines. Yet we must
remember that this attraction Of the press
does not bear against the pulpit only, but
against all public speaking, and comes
from the fact that II Ia far easier to read
speeches and sermons often than IL il to
20 10 hear them. We must remember,
too, that the preacher often gains by this
very fact far larger reception than Of
old, and that a gifted and earnest man IL
now allowed 10 have at once a response
such as formerly years and fame only
could bring, since powerful and origi.

every border Of the land, and the vision Of

course under the ocean, SO that there ia
"no more sea" to the triumphant word.
Again, it must be remembered that the
press does not and cannot do away with
the need Of devout and sympathetic tel-
lowship, that calls for public Worship and
institutional religion. Indeed, the press
itself gives constant proof Of the need Of
this worship, and its types have made
church bells almost needless in announc.
ing the hour and the place Of prayer and
preaching. With these considerations in
view We are warranted in taking great
satisfaction in the relation OF the press
to the pulpit, and in wishing to deepen
and extend the good feeling between them.
It is not only pleasant to think Of the cir
culation that is given to the most strIk'
ing utterances Of the pulpit by the press,
but also to know that it is not merely the
sensational sermons Of popular preach.
ers, but the wise and careful thoughts oil
calm and far-seeing Christian scholars,
that are reported; and that no preacher
OF commanding learning and Judgment
can sneak upon an important topic with
out having the huDst0ASe Va ha9 NAISS Sa'sS
made known to the great public. In fact,
the secular press is in some respects more
friendly to superior preachers than the
theological press, because our daily jour
mails are sure to care for ideas and enter
prises that appeal to the general con-
science and heart OF the community
rather than for opinions and interests
that are more limited and UNCONVENTIONAL
1t Is not we'll TO use exaggerated Lam
guage in any direction, or TO claim for
the press wholly disinterested humanity
or self.sacrifCing devotion. But it Is fair
to say that, upon the whole, its tendency
is in favor of Justice and charity; that it
gives rogues their brand and honest men
their due; that the resultant forces Of Its
influences are in favor Of what is good
and true and fair. II it does not deal
much with the interior Of devotion and
the order OF worship and church govern
ment, it gives publicity to all interesting
facts Of the religious life Of communities
and has great deal to do with illustra'
ting the ethics OF religion-a matter
| which Is becoming more vital and urgent
throughout the world.

A POWER PUNCH ACHISE,-one Of the
most interesting things in the whole Ell.
position is the tremendous machine for
punching holes in iron, in Power Hall,
The power Of this great machine is such
that you can place beneath the punch

and at one stroke this punch will drive a
hole through it, and the surface inside
the hole will be as smooth as polished

this steel.punching pressure OF eighty
thousand pounds is condensed within the
diameter Of half an inch. The heat evOl-

when the hole is made. Sometimes EX-

of course no ordinary steel or iron can
sustain the above enormous pressure and
yet preserve its texture. Ordinary iron

David Kirkaldy, one Of the most famous

McMAKIN's ATLANTIC HOTEL
CAPE MAY, N. ]. Oct 10.
Cape May ocean wharf was submerged, this
morning on its outer end and for two-thirds its
length shoreward, by the highest sea we have
had since its construction. The floor at outer
end was ripped off and carried away, but other
wise it suffered no injury. The wind blew from
the North East all night, and the storm signals
are still flying at 10 A. NJ. The sea is caused by
the heavy weather at sea. 1t is not very stormy
here, and the rain has ceased.
We visited Sea Grove, yesterday, and they are
building fine bulk head to protect their sea
front. 1t is of IA inch pine plank, nailed up
and down to heavy strnigers on posts sunk in
the sand. Last nights sea must have dashed
fercely against it, much worse than here at the
Island front.
Returning along the beach, we surprised three
wild ducks (white winged coots) and two took
wing with great difficulty and flew seaward. We
captured the other, brought it home and finally
let it go in the surf, and it escaped by swimming
out TO sea. 1t seems they cannot take wing on
of shore readily, as they miss the motion OF the
sea. They rise from the waves without trouble.
Mother Carys chickens, (storm petrels)
when caught at sea and let go on the
deck have the same difficulty, they lose the mo-
tion of the sea and cannot rise and fly over the
rail- They keep on the wing for days over the
ocean, following the ship, rarely resting. The
coot caught was very thin in flesh but their
feathers are perfect mat in thickness.
The new Cape May pilot boat e. O. Knight
lust anchored off the Island. She was built by
the famous constructor Of the yacht SaPpho, and
will land when she goes down on the ebb tide.
