SHARP FIGHT FOR CABINET POSITIONS

A sharp fight is going on in the Re.
publican ranks for cabinet positions
The idea of securing prominent Southern
Democrats has been abandoned, Any use
of Lamar name in such Il connection is
impudent and unauthorized. Ex-senator
Key and Representative Hancock, Of
Texas, are mentioned, but ! hayo no
idea that Hancock would accept. The
more probable selections are Pool and
Settle, of North Carolina, Alcon, Of
Mississippi and Josh Hill, Of Georgia
1t is conceded that Eyarts can be sccre-
tary of state if he pleascs, and that
Stanley Mathews can also 60 in. II
Mathews refuses, then there will be q

HAYES spoke kindly of the South in
his letter Of acceptance, and since then
there have been rumors that he would,
if elected, inaugurate generous policy
toward this section. We hope these re-
ports will prove well.founded. The
South asks nothing but justice and
kindness at his hands, and she has the
right to expect that of him when he
knows that the decision Of the country
is averse to aAy other course. lie need
not fear that any civil connection would
occur in either South Carolina or Louis,
lana Take the bayonets away and the
Radical frauds will topple over. The
people will slaryo them out, and sus.
tain governments that will Mt once re-
store confidence and prosperity. If he
elects, on the contrary, to recognize the
fraudulent concerns he will enter into
labyrinth of troubles, that will cling
to him through his entire administra

READING THE SACRED SCRIPTURES IN
THE LIGHT OF MODERN SCIENCE.

The Rev. Noah Porter has been lee
turing on miracles and Prophecies
which Show the Bible to be Divine, in
New York city, and the compliments
of the press upon the distinguished di.
vines argument are decidedly favorable
In his address, the lecturer after re-
calling certain wonderful supernatural
occurrences of biblical record, held that
the existence of the Christian Church is
due to the fact that the miracle of the
resurrection was believed, and that it
was believed was proof that it was
performed, 1t was true that the disci-
Piles could not discriminate between
miracles and mere extraordinary events,
Tor they had not attained TO a lnowl
edge of the laws Of nature But we
know that they looked upon tho mira
cles of Christ "a far transcending any
occurrences of which they had ever
heard. They did not require knowl-
edge of science to convince them that
since the beginning of the world no
man had opened the eyes of the blind,
cured the pNralytic with touch,
and brought the dead to life They
were simple, mlettered men of an IN
lcttered people, and how out of that
people should come the most complex
ideal OF man the world has ever seen
has always been question of wonderful
Importance to the thinker.
At the revival of letters and the ply.
steal sciences it became known that
natures forces were numerous and po-
weriul, and that works of magic could
be easily explained by natural laws.
Then the attempt was made to account
in the Same way for Christ's miracles,
and then was begun the era of skeptic.
ism.
Believers in the truths of the Bible
have made great mistake in Justify
ing the doctrines of Christianity by the
miracles instead of justifyng the mira.
cles by the doctrines. Their course has
resulted too often in bringing the story
Of Christ down to the level of common
story and too often, also, in rendering
Christianity a subject of ridiculc.
If the assertion should be made that
yesterday dead man was brought to
life in Union square, no one would be
found to believe it. Why should we
believe, then, that the dead were restor-
ed by the SIviom2 Because then there
was grand reason why the laws of ma.
ture should be violated, reasons that do
not exist in our day. Never has Their
been time when the miracles of the
Scripture could be more triumphantly
defended than now miracle is
not wonderful work. 1t must have
an import; and this is why it is so ire-
quently spoken of in Holy WHIT as
sign. 1t must be Of public Importance
and wrought in the light of day, and
openly performed,

INFORMATION by specials from Wash
ington is to the effect that the Southern
congressman are very much disposed to
look after the interests Of their respec.
tive States, and to prevent, if possible,
the incoming president from acting by
the advice of men who claim to be
Southern Republicans, that they may
secure official positions. If this infor-
nation is correct, and we believe it is, it
is evident that overtures of some kind
have be an made to the Southern lead.
ers by those who claim to speak for Mr..
Hayes. What these overtmes amount
to- we are unable to say but presume
they indicate a change of policy toward
the South by the new administration.
We await with interest further develop
ments.

TIE Indianapolis Herald warns blue
glass devotees as follows: "Let me say
to those who have already procured the
glass that if it is not ground in accord
ance with scientific principles, and if
Irregularities exist on either of the sur
faces, they had better by far throw it
away than to subject themselves to a
course positively harmful, as it has been
found that the slightest irregularity in
the glass, or the slightest curve if in
the wrong direction, though it embrace
but one.eighth of an inch of either of
the surfaces, may fall upon branch of
one of the sensitive nerves, and, by re.
ilex irritation, produce incalculable mis-
chief to the sufferer"
