THE ADVISORY COUNCIL which has been
called to determine all questions affecting
the discipline of Plymouth church in
dropping certain of its members from its
rolls met yesterday and took such prelimi.
nary action as was necessary for the consider.
alton of the matters to be settled. Little
real progress was made, but the committees
which have these matters in charge will
probably report to the Council to-day, when
the discussion will begin in earnest. Whether
the result will be anything more valuable
than discussion remains to be seen. But,
after all, the Council can scarcely deal
with the real question at issue be-
tween Mr.. Beecher and the peculiar
recusancy of Plymouth church. In this
view of the case DR.. Bacons declaration, that
the Council was not body to whitewash
anybody, goes for very little. If the Council
is not to inquire into the matters which made
the differences between the church and Mr..
West Mrs Moulton and others of its men,
bers, but only to determine whether the
church has the authority to pursue the
course it has followed in these cases, there
will be no opportunity for whitewash-
Whatever such Council may agree upon
will be only preliminary, and the scandal
ITSELF which is the real thing to be got out OF
the way, will be as far from settlement as it
was at any time during the last two years.

A Terrible STORY of shipwreck and death

JUSTICE TO LEADER envious po-
litical newspapers question the propriety Of
the HERALD calling the Hon. Hugh Hastings
the leader of the republican party and the
successor of Thurlow Weed. This is unjust
Mr.. Hastings is one of the oldest, most ex-
perienced and most trusted of the republican
leaders. He has had high place in politi-
cal affairs all his life. Thus we find in the
diary of John Quincy Adams suggestive
extract, which we commend to these envious
journals. In volume 8, page 12O, Mr..
Adams says:-"Morning visit from Hiland
Hall, of Vermont, with Mr.. Hastings, of
Albany, N. Y, one Of the delegation
from the memorialists of that place. Mr..
Hastings told me. that he was at the Presi-
dents last Saturday, with Job Pierson, OF
New York, and that the President asked him
when the House would take up the question
of the deposits" The President" here re-
ferred to is Andrew jackson. AS the date of
this entry is April 3, 1884, it shows that
forty two years ago our contemporary was o
power in political affairs as he is now, and
that he had the ear of Adams and Jackson,
as he has now the ear of Grant

ENGLAND AND CHISA-We believe there is
an old prophecy that England and China are
10 90 to war about this time Those who in
terpret what has been foretold on this sub
ect declare that the struggle must come in
the spring time, after an unusually mild
winter and before the close of Mr.. Disraeli's
administration. Other nations are to be in
volyed in the contest and there is to be
happy time generally. When we hear Of an
English feet being sent to Chinese waters to
support German claims it begins to look as II
the old prophet was not much at fault.

JovELLAR IN CuDA.-Strange rumors reach
us from Cuba in relation to the insurrection
in that island. According to these accounts
Captain General Jovellar is to occupy the
Fort CabaGas preparatory to disbanding the
Spanish volunteers Of Havana, and 1t is also
asserted that he is to make the government
of the island as liberal as English rule in
Jamaica. The insurgents, it is said, have ac-
ceded to these concessions and only wait their
guarantee by some other Power before laying
down their arms. These stories are improba-
BILE on their face, but they may have in them
a grain of truth, and we print them for what
theY are worth.

CHRIsTMAS DAY.


The History OF the Anniversary
santa Claus. Etc.
The religious celebration Of Christmas
day yesterday commenced at a very
early date in the frat century. The
origin Of the festival Of the Christian
Church is yelled in ~obscurity, though it
is believed to have been instituted By the
decretal letters to Pope Telesphorus, who
died A. D. 1873, and throughout the sub
sequent history Of the church it has been
one Of the most noted of Christian SOL
emnities. Almost since the memorable
night when the shepherds watched their
hocks on the Judean hills and the wise
men Of the East followed the Star Of
Bethlehem, the advent Of This holy anni-
versary has awakened in Christian
hearts the reflex Of that spirit of joy,
praise and thanksgiving which animated
Simeon of old when he FIRST received the
knowledge OF the birth Of the Savior Of
mankind.
The legend Of Santa Claus is Of Ger.
man origin. Formerly, and evsn at the
present time, in some Of the smaller
portions of North Germany, the presents
made by all the parents we're sent to
some one known, who, dressed in high
buskins, a white robe, a mask and an
enormous fax wig, becoming the bugbeal
Of the children, known as Kuicht Rupert
goes from house to house, is received BY
the parents with great poup and rever
ence, calls for the children and bestowl
the intended gifts upon them according
to the character which he hears from thu
parents after severe inquiries.
In England, for centuries, the day wa
observed 10 past generations BY f%eastinI
and good cheer:
ION Christmas eve the bells we're rung.
On Christmas eve the mass was sung;
England was merry En. LAND when
Old Christmas brought his sports again.
Twas Christmas preached the mightiest ale
Twas Christmas told the merriest tale,
A Christmas gambol Oft would cheer
A poor mans heart through half the year.
But though the "yule log" has give
n way in many places to the CRATES {
} glowing coal, the fires still burn q
brightly as on old.fashioned heartl
stones, and the little ones, with the col
fding trust of childhood, eagerly antic
"a pate the annual recurrence Of the fest
val, which brings to them substantit
tokens Of enjoyment in unlimited swee
meats, toys and nicknacks; nor al
children of larger growth altogether e
empt from pleasant anticipations of i
approach, for to them it brings hapI
"reminiscences of the 'long ago" whic
are fondly cherished.
~ Hard times may come, but they q
Ct made to give way to the joy of the gre
a. day Of the year, aud hearts and purs
are opened alike that on other occasion

and then to Elmwood cemetery by the

A very large crowd Of citizens filed the
sidewalks and followed the cortege
through the rain and slush to the church.
The coffin was elegantly decorated with
evergreens and flowers and immortelles,
and upon it rested the sabre and belt Of
the gallant young soldier.

mantle of black silk, hung the dead

attached.
