been spent on our Notifications. they are yet
really of little account. and If ever hostile feet

demonstrated. Though We have some very
threatening looking forts along our channel. they
have no guns mounted in them which could

Prof. FELIX ADLER, the able and thought
ful jew who has of late been cNpoundiug phlo-
sophical religion in New York. has organized
what he calls the Society Of Ethical Culture.
The object Of ,hc society il instruction in morals
and their promotion. without reference to creed
or dogma. The idea Is to accomplish this by
weekly lectures and the establishment Of u
school for moral instruction. with II course of
education Tor young people ranging between the
ages of seven or eight and nineteen. We hope
the movement may succeed, hut the experience
of society is against IT, lou cannot separate
morals from religion, or make Hien better, cN-
cept by giving them divine standard which
thoy can WOrshln.
