1t seems that GRANT, in order to set an
example TO his faithful offceholders. has put his
name down Tor tl.0oO or two per cent. Of his
salary. as his assessment toward paying the ex-

service reform. 1t is easy for GRANT to do this,
though II Is hard for the oficeholders to sign

There may have been no injustice in prevent
ing argument at the religious meeting in qucs-
ton. II probably was not called for the sake OF
argument. Its purpose, as our correspond
ents themselves say, was TO convince
the Jews Directors had no more right
to demand hearing at such re-
lieious assemblaee than they would have to
make such demand at any Christian church, or
than Christians would have TO make 1t at the
services In Jewish synagogue. Having thus
decided the point at Issue, we would at the
same time say that we should think these con-
verted Jews would like to call a meeting or
meetings for the purpose of discussing, fairly
and squarey, the doctrines Of Christianity with
the adherents OF the Jewish faith. Such dis
cussions would surely be interesting, and might
be profitable.

Free trade lie not progressing in Europe
with the steadiness Its English advocates have
hoped for. Germany was to abolish, on the be-
ginning Of next January, the protectionist
duties on iron; but the Government has decided
to Introduce bill, which is likely to pass the
Reichstae postponing the abolition. Germany
has been suffering from commercial stagnation
and business calamitles, and, as a consequence,
the protectionist party has gained new strength.

Lifting Up the Standard.

The enemy is coming in like food, but
the Spirit of the Lord has lifted up stand
ard against him. Not only in the great
cities but throughout the country and in
many lands, are there powerful reviVals of
religion. These are strictly in the line Of a
great series of mighty religious movements,
which have been in progress for years past,
and are the forerunners of still greater spir-
itual events. Satan RACES; the kingdoms
are moved" but God works. Old truths,
and new agencies and remarkable combina-
tions of means, opportunities and provi-
dences, characterize the period. The old
and the new worlds clap their hands to-
gether before the Lord" and distant ma
tions catch the flying JOY"
In addition to the ordinary means Of
grace, and the increasing activity of pastors,
evangelists are preaching the gospel to great
multituies, and meetings for prayer and
praise are thronged in Europe, Asia and
Australia Missions are more successful
than ever in heather and 8emi.evangelized
lands The Bible is more widely dilfuSed
and in more tongues, and it is more thorough
ly studied and taught in Sabbath Schools
throughout Christendom. The pulpit speaks
out more powerfully the saving and aanc,i-
flying truths of the gospel, and takes boldtr
stand against the unrighteousness and the
ungodliness of men. Even the secular pr IS

The rules, as applicable to vacant churches
and to the supplies sent to them, will per
hsps be most difficult to carry out success
fally. Yet judieiOus 6rmness and perse
verance cannot fail to meet the case. The
sessions of vacant congregations are too APT
to feel utterly helpless and irresponsible IN
this matter. The fact of having no minis
ter seems to them an all-suficient excuse for
doing nothing. Whereas, their not being
charged with the support of pastor, leaves
the more wherewith to help forward the
cause of the Master elsewhere. The Assem-
bly's rules in this case afford the Presbyte-
ries an opportunity to train the sessions OF
vacant churches to greater activity and efh-
cheney, in the absence of pastoral leader
ship; and abundantly fortify any minister
sent to supply them, who otherwise might
feel some deliCacy about taking up collec-
ton.
The regulations make provision to secure
proper attention to them by successive Gen.
eral Assemblies. OF course they are liable to
modification or repeal. But the judgment of
the Church seems to be that they are cOnsti-
tutional, practicable, and demanded by the
circumstances, viz the enormous proper
ton of omissions heretofore to solicit the
gifts of the people, and the consequent Ia
mentable embarrassments in carrying for
ward the work of the Church. For these
reasons any fears would seem to be ground
less, that the coming, or any succeeding AS
sembly will take step backward in this mat
ter, or fail to give effect to the rules adopted
at ST. Louis. II. A. B.

Too oft different way;

My heart grows chill

Turn all hfe's gold to gray.
Ny viii is set to gather flowers,
Thine blights them IN my hand;
Mine reaches for hfe's sunny hours,
Thine leads through shsdow-land;
And all my days
Go on in ways

Yet more and more this truth doth shine
From failure and from loss,
The will that runs transverse to Thine
Doth thereby make its cross:
Thine upright viii
Cuts straight and still
Through pride and dream and drOss.
But if in parallel to Thine
MY will doth meekly run,
al things in heaven and earth are mine
My will is crossed by none;
