j. w. RANDOLPH & ENGLISH There is no
surer proof of the growing prosperity of our city
than the improving and enlsrging of its manufac-
turing and mercantile houses. We notice among
others the removal of j. w. Randolph & English
from their old stand, 1918. to their new and ele
CANT iVe-story building 1924 Main Street.
Their establishment was founded in 1888 The
book department has been enlarged, and is full and
complete In Its various branches both for wholesa
ing and retailing The antiquary may here have
his desire fully satisfied and the merchant have as
good an assortment as is to be found this side of
Philadelphia. We are particularly struck with the
manufacturing department of this old firm. Here
may be seen the process of book binding in all its
various NODES from the folding of sheet of paper
BY the apprentice girl to the highest style of bind
ing in muslin, sheep, calf, Turkey, aud Russia by
the master workman, which will compare with any
northern house In style, nestness, and durability
They are publishers as well as manufacturers, and
their publications have received the prize for cloth
and other styles of bindings at our State fairs The
whole force of the house is from twenty-five to
thirty Just such houses is what we want in our
city, and it is well worth visit to those who feel
interested in home institutions. -Southern Planter

Sewing Machine Monopoly AbOlishsd-The tele-
graph announces that the principal patents on sew
ing machines expired on the 18th ult, aud that
hereafter such machines will be sold for at least
one-third of their former prices. Those who know,
say that these machines can be made at cost OF
$S75, and that $50 for retail selling price would
give all hands large profit.

Professor Observation-Disclosures Christieb will not
come to the d vinity College of the Presbyterian
Church in England He has stated to the gentle
men who were urging his election that he could not
cave his present position without greatly dlscour-
aging his present associates, who were standing
with him for the truth in the face of many diff
eulties 1t had been made an objection to Dr..
Chrstieb that he was not Presbyterian, and could
not adopt the doctrines Of the Church. But be
assured his friends that he had no difficulty Of this
kind, and that he could very readily sign the form
ola prescribed, and accept the Westminster Comics
sion of Faith. The choice of Professor for the
College is somewhat embarrassing, but the Rev.
Dr. Dykes of the Regent Square church, London,
is evidently the tsVorite candidate.-P

FOREIGN ITEMS.

Thomas Carlyle has been chosen unanimously
President OF the Philosophical Institution for the
ensuing year.
The Prssbytery Of London, at its late meeting, had
much business before it. The Year Book contains
the names Of sixty five regular charges and six
preaching places, sixty pastors, two professors
and one missionary, sixty two elders, while three
congregations are not represented BY elders. Dur
ing the year there have been nine inductions, and
two ordinations. Four congregations are vacant,
one of which is at Wandsworth where the first
English Presbytery met, three hundred years ago.
Two Australian Delegates hope to be present at the
Pam Presbyterian Council Mr. Henderson, OF Balla
ret, and Mr.. Campbell, of Geeong, both formerly
connected with the Free Church OF Scotland.
Rev. Thomas Barclay, one of the English Presby-
terrain Church missionaries in Formosa, writes :
Last week We held our meeting in one of the
ehspels. Some of the people had l0alted ta0O hun
drea miles to be present 1t made my heart glad
to see about fifty or sixty oficebea meeting to-
gether, not to talk about how they could win more
money, but how they might be able to serve Christ
better, and make His Church prosper. Ten years
ago not one of these men had heard Of the name
OF Jesus, and there was not single Christian in
the whole Island. Now there are hundreds and
hundreds OF men who come regularly to Church. "

ance, and the full Report of the Committee of Policy
holders and Representatives Of Policy holders have
been printed in pamphlet form, and may be obtained
by application to the Society to any of its agents
throughout the United States and Canada.
Tho following is the Report of the Finance and
Executive Committee of the Society.
The thorough investigation into the affairs and
condition of the Equitable Life Assurance Society by
the Insurance Department of the State of N. York,
and by committee of Policy holders aud Represen-
tatves of Policy-holders, has not relaxed in the
slightest degree the customary examinations by the
Standing Committees of the Board of Directors.
In presenting the Report of the Society for 1875,
the Finance Committee state that they have during
that year given much attention and labor to the
sderaton of the system by which the business of the
Society is conducted and its expenses regulated and
have directed the enforcement of all rules and meth
DDS for bringing down the expenses of the Society
to- and continuing the same at, the lowest standard
consistent 1O the greatest efficiency IN the admins
tratiOR Of ats affairs
The undivided surplus fund of the Society is much
larger than is requisite for the continuance of dvi
dends to policy holders without diminution, and in
order to guard against even unexpected depreciation
in investments the committee have
RESOLVED, That eight hundred thousand dollars Of
the said undivided surplus be withheld from division
among policy holders until the further order of this
Committee, or of the Board, to cover any possible
loss arising from the value of real estate and other
securities.
The Equitable Life Assurance Society has, during
the past six months Ia period Of unexampled depres
