Lawyers Studying the Bible.

The Rev. DIR. Vaughan, one of the
most distinguished clergymen of the
Church of England, has commenced a
course of public reading in the Greek
Testament at the Middle Temple lecture
room, London, at eight o'clock in the
morning. The course is intended spe-
cially for the benefit of the lawyers in
whose courts the lectures are delivered,
and il is to be continued every Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday dur
ing the law term. One who was present
at the opening lecture writes:
"The announcement to which we have
referred awakened our curiosity. We
were anxious to see how such a man
would, to such an audience, expound the
words of the great apostle. Despite,
therefore, the early hour and six or seven
miles which lay between our house and
the temple, we resolved to be present.
With some difficulty and after good
many inquiries the lecture-room of the
temple was reached few minntes after
eight o'clock. To our surprise and, let
us add, pleasure, the room was full. II
looked like theological class in one of
our colleges. Ranged along desks or
seated in odd corners, where some facility
for writing could be found, were seated
thirty or forty men-some in the early
morning Of life; some who were draw
ing near to its evening hour. Judging
by appearances, nearly all belonged to
the legal profession, which finds one of its
| favored homes in the winding courts and
halls of the temple. Here and there,
however, appeared dress which told
unmistakably that its wearer belonged to
the clerical order Every one, however,
meant work Notebooks and inter.
leaved Greek Testaments were being
rapinly filled with the words which fell
from the lips of DR.. Vaughan. He wa:
seated at little desk with Greek Testa
ment and Concordance before him, and
with a rare grace of manner and finish
and precision of statement was discours
ing of Paul's second letter to the Cor
inthian church"
Ii must he an interesting sight, an as
semblage of men learned in the Law

il was written IN. Y Observer.

ECCLESIASTICAL.

The average salary of Methodist
preachers in North Carolina is S535.
The Mormons spend two hundred
thousand dollars year in bringing CON
verts from Europe.
In the North Alabama (Methodist)
Conference there are "a parsonages, AGO
churches, and ll6 travelling preachers.
OF the fifty Protestant Episcopal
churches and chapels in the State of Mis-
souri,, thirty-four have been built within
the last seven years.
The present chaplain of the House of
Representatives, in Washington. is an
Episcopalian, and was chaplain in the
confederate congress at Richmond.
The work on the Lutheran church,
in Savannah, Georgia, is progressing rap
idly, and the congregation will shortly
have one of the finest religious edifces in
the South.
Rev. Geo. G.. Smith, of the North
Georgia Conference, has about completed

The Flower Mission Of London sends
between 5000 and 1000 bouquets weekly
to the hospitals, workhouses and sick
poor at home. The flowers are placed in
little paper bouquet-holders, upon each
of which is a text of Scripture.
Mr.. Arthur, Baptist missionary in
Yeddo, writes to the Waterman and Re
fiector that the japanese newspapers are
discussing Christianity very freely. 4
long and able article on the resurrection
of Christ appeared not long ago in one
of the daily papers.
The First Baptist church erected in
San Francisco was lately sold for Chi

Bathing In the Ganges.

A letter from India says "a long
drive OF four miles broaght us to the
junction of the Jumma and Ganges, and
here one of the strangest and most inter
esting sights met my eyes. The banks
of the Ganges, on either side, for dis
tance of four or five miles below ito
junction with the .Jumma, were swarm
ing with naked Hindoos of both sexes
1t is no exaggeration TO say that there
were in the water and on the shores at
least 100, 600 natives. All were bathing,
or getting ready to bathe. We pro
cured boat, and were slowly pushed up
and down the stream, and were thus en-
ployed two or three hours in the profita-
Bile manner of observing these strange
people.
81 trust ] shall not shock you, gentle
reader, when | say that there were one
hundred thousand naked, of all ages,
sexes and conditions, gathered from all
parts of India, either in the water or
sporting about on shore, most of them as
destitute of clothing as our first parents;
but there was nothing immodest or vul-
car in their proceedings. So serious, so
earnest, and 50 devout were all their
wavs and actions, that the looker-on
would soon feel that bushing was un-
called for; in fact, so contagious was the
example of these dovout Hindoos, that |
speedily doffed my clothing and tired the
efficacy of dip myself in these sacred
but very muddy waters. The sculptor
or PAINTER would here have found abund-
ant material for study.
at certainly gave me a COED opportu-
nifty to study the physique of these
swarthy races, and ! will give you the
result of my observations. The men are
nearly all nndersized, few or none being
over five feet eight inches; sinewy, 1.-THE
and graceful in their motions, but, sub
sisting rs they almost entirely do on
rice, | do not imagine them to he very
muscular. The women under twenty
years of age are mostly well and plumply
made. with rounded and shapely limbs,
and many of them are elaborately tat
tooed-face, arms limbs and hips. But
here, as in Egypt, early marriages and
early-child- birth cares speedily transform
them into ugly, lean old hags. After
thirty. and even after twenty-five years
of age. many of them become fearfully
ugly. Here, as elsewhere in oriental
countries, the female il obliged 10 per
form all the tiresome, hard drudgery OF
the household. No wonder her beauty
speedily fades away"

One Generation of McH Wiser than
Another,

One day the Caliph Alamansor, one of
the vainest of the Arabian monarchs, was
conversing familiarly with the famous
poet Fazelli, with whom he delighted TO
talk, when retired from the cares of the
empire. "Thou thinkest,' said he to
Fazelli, "that | am not wiser than my
father? Why is it so? Doth not every
succeeding generation add to the wisdom
of that which preceded it?" Dost thou
think thyseli wiser than the Prophet ?"
answered the poet, bowling his head rev.
erentially. Assuredly not?" answered
the Caliph. "DCst thou think thyself
wiser than solomon" asked the poet,
bowing still lower Assuredly not, )"
again answered the Caliph. Dost thou
think thyself wiser than Moses, who com
muned with Allah HIMSELF" third time
asked the poet, bowling to the ground.
Alamansor was for moment thoughtful,
and held down his head. "Assuredly
not 90 replied he, at length, ~ were
foolishly presumptuous TO think SO.
"Then how" resumed Fazelli, "canst
thou prove that each succeeding genera
ton is wiser than another that is past y
"The aggregate of knowledge is GER
tainly increased" replied the Caliph.
True, o my king replied Fazelli, but
knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom points
out the road to happiness and virtue
knowledge is only an acquaintance with
mas OF facts. which are not necessarily
connected with either wisdom, virtue or
happiness, the only objects worthy the
pursuit of wise man. The knowledge
Of things has certainly increased, but, @
king remember that wisdom is always
the same as much 50 as the Great Power
by whom it is dispensed. Thou mayest
perhaps know more Of the moon, the stars
the earth, and the sea than thy father
but Of thy organization, thy soul, thy
passions, appetites, the power to direct
them, and the Being who bestowed them
upon thee, thou knowest no more than
the meanest of thy fathers slaves
"Thou sayest true" replied the Caliph
bowling mis- head reverentially. Allah
teach me humility" Great king,
said Fazelli, lament not thine igno
rance. Everything Wa cannot compre.
hend furnishes proof of the existence Of
| a Being wiser than ourselves"

And around his feet the SUM beams play;
While his scant gray locks are gently stirred

There iingers dreemful tender hare,
And the breexe is fragrant with stolen sweets,
In memoriam Of the summer days.
Grandfather thinks Of the years gone by.
The spring-tme first of his merry youth,
And then the summer Of manhood's Joys,
When his heart grew warm with love and truth
"Alas ~ he murmurs, shat time has passed
And winter comes for the year and me
Who knows, as the chill Of aye creeps on,
ilew lovely In my death shall be -
Grandfather lies on the hillside brown
lies at rest and the setting sun
Kisses the spot where loving hands
Laid him down when his life was done
Aud over the meadow, over the hills,
The breeze goes sobbing the livelcng day,
For the fair, sweet summer whose lite went out
With the shadow Of winter chill and gray.
