Salvation Of Infants.

AA1oFS lntellIEencer:
In your paper Of this morning fnd a
communication from the Rev. J. D. Moi
iIt, which states:
"lthink he Bishop Kahn will find it
impossible TO show by quotation from the
writings OF the ReEormers that they
taught that infants dying IN infancy are
doomed to the torments Of the damned In
hell"
II we qualify this by inserting the
word Select" before "infants," the reyer-
end gentleman is perfectly correct. Ee
adds further:
"All Protestant Churches, no far as
know, agree in teaching TINT infants dy-
ing IN infancy are saved through the
merits Of the Saviour"
The word Select should be inserted
before "intants" in this place alEo, at least
SO far as the Presbyterian Church is con-
Cerned. Protestant Churches agree in
this, that baptism is not essentially and
absolutely necessary for the salvation Of
infants. But how ia 1t with non-eleCt In
lants2 The Confession of Faith, which
Ia the acknowledged creed Of the Presby
terian Church, states:
ELECT infants, dying in infancy, are
regenerated and saved by Christ through
the Spirit. = : 0lhers not
elected never truly come
unto Christ and therefore cannot be
saved" Chap. y, sec. 3, 4.
"rhe rest Of mankind (ths non elect
God was pleased to pass by, and ordaill
them to dishonor and wrath for their sin
to the praise OF his glorious JUSTICE
Chap, III, sec. Z.
THE souls Of the righteous are received
into the highest heavens, and the souls
OF the wicked are cat into he'll where they
remain in torments. Besides
these two places the Scripture Acknowl.
edEeth nOne."> Chap. XX&lI, sec. /.
Il think it will be apparent from thir
that it ia only in certain sense that Som'
Protestant churches teach that infant
dying in infancy are saved.

MONTREAL, December 1s.-About 800
canal strikers marched, this afternoon,
TO 81. Paul and attacked the office Of
Davis 4 Son, contractors, with stones and
revolvers. Shots we're returned from
the office, killing one and wounding three
strikers. When the mob reached the
section under the contract OF Davis,
where the strike originated, they found
twenty-five men at work, and ordered
them to cease, but acting under the fore
mans instructions they refused. Stone
throwing began, when the foreman, Cos
grave, from the door OF Davis'ottice, pre-
gented areyolver and ordered the crowd
TO disperse. One, Paquette raised pick
handle in threatening way, when Cos
grave fred three shots in quick success
sion, fatally wOunding Paquette. The
iuiurated mob began wrecking the build
ing, but some fifty shots were fred from
the inside and the wreckers withdrew
The strikers seem determined to hold
out for dollar per day. Inlamatory
speeches were made at several meetings

NIovemen,s Of Gen, EscoheAp

New ORLEANS, December IS. General
Escobedo, Of recent Mexican border fame,
arrived here yesterday from Brownsville.
He sAys his visit TO Louisiana Ia simply
in pursuit OF private business errands,
and that after remaining fortnight he
will leave for Galveston. In conyerSa.
ton he utterly disclaimed the charge that
his recent visit to the Rio Grande was for
the purpose Of organizing an expedition
against Diaz. He denies that LerdO and
his adherents secretly encourage a con.
tlict between the United States and the
Diaz government. He does not apprc-
hend any danger Of war between the two
governments, and says it would be de-.
plored by none more than he. He says
as between belligerents Lerdo would
surely be Mexican. Touching the, late
troubles in El Paso county Escobedo
said the difficulty was not between the
Americans and Mexicans but between the
Americans only. The occurrence Of an
outbreak, he said, did not change his
opinion that peace will be maintained
between the two nations.
