part OF the universe occupied by our solar sys-
tenn was only space; then imagine vast world
Of flaming fire whirling through this space "a
this moves it revolves, and as it revolvos 1t
condenses and as II condenses il throws off
portions Of its outer rim; these particles OF
molten mass are hurled 30 FAR by the law of
Repulsion, when they are checked in their
course by the law OF Attraction. The central
mass is the sun, whence came the earth and
her sister planets. This theory, also, may be
adopted without conflicting with Bible state
ments. Scripture says that 50 In the beginning
God created the heavens and the EARTH" but il
nowhere says hon that creation WAS effected.
The fact and not the manner of the creation is
asserted.
3. Again it is said that Science and the Bible
are not agreed as to the METHOD OF MANS GRE
ALTON. The Bible has been supposed to teach
that God made man by one specific creative act
But the evolutionist says that he has developed
through long series Of lower forms. Regard
ing this, two things may be said:
(a) The evolution theoryJcan not. as yet be
regarded as an established truth in science
Prof. Huxley, one Of the ablest exponents OF
this theory, in his recent visit to this country,
delivered in New York three lectures confess
eddy for the purpose Of demonstrating the doc
trine OF evolution. Scribners Monthly in
commenting upon these addresses, remarks
editorialIy: "Men went away feeling that
after oil, the theory OF evolution was nothing
but theory, that it is still so much Of an
hypothesis that it can lay no valid claim to a
place in science"
CD We can accept the evolution theory and
still believe in the Bible. God created man,
and it is immaterial to me whether he formed
HIM by one direct act or by the law Of develop
ment Prof Gray OF Harvard, says: - Re-
hgion is no more affected by the Darwinian
theory than II was when Newton discovered the
theory Of gravitation. The attributes OF God
are enhanced rather than lessened by consider
ing only one primary act Of creation out Of
which all other changes evolved"
We affirm, thep that one may accept the Sc
theories OF science and yet be consistent in
believing the Bible, also. Three concluding
reflections suggest themselves:
1. Let the church no longer oppose scientific
research. Let us not fail to learn here lesson
from the past
9. Do not attempt to make the Bible teach
what ii was never designed to teach. As an
answer to the question, "What must 1 do to
inherit eternal life?" 1t is infallible, but as
textbook on Geology or Astronomy, 1t makes
no pretensons.
3. The Bible nightly interpreted has nothing
to fear from the Investigations Of science
Gold Is not harmed by testing it. As DR.. Cum
mings has expressed it 1.-The crowbar Of the
Geologist will never upheave the Rock of Ages,
the telescope of the Astronomer will never find
q speck on the Sun OF Righteousness.

Upon the pending suit for the collection OF
the laboratory deficit or the University the
Battle Creek Journal published at the home
of Regent Colher) says:
THE regents at their last meeting rejected
proposition to discontinue the suits against
Drs. Rose and Douglas for the recovery OF de-
ficits in the laboratory accounts. In this we
think they did the proper thing. The suits
should go on, because the judicial tribunal is
the only one competent to such an investiga-
ton and review as will be satisfactory. The
duty OF the State is to recover the money which
is its due, and which is in the hands either OF
Rose or Douglas, or portion OF it In the hands
Of each. The adoption OF the above PROPOSE
ton would have been an abandonment OF it's
claims on the part OF the State 80 far as the
action OF the regents would make II such. Let
the chancery SUIT then go on let the courts
settle what nothing but courts can, and the
parties most interested and implicated bide
their time"

That 1t is OF the utmost importance in the
present stage OF our national history to empha-
SIZE the fact that this country was settled by
Christians who came hither with a free and
open Bible and founded free institutions OF
government on the basis OF the principles OF
the Christian religion.
2 That the most vital national issues OF to-
day involve the relations or Christianity and
the state; and that the truth when Christian
ity teaches concerning these relations never
demanded clearer assertion than now, viz ::
That Almighty God is the ultimate source OF
all authority in civil government; that Jesus
Christ as ruler OF nations has given a moral
standard for their conduct, and that the stand
ard of Ills word is their supreme law.
That we preceIve with grave apprehensions
the determined and often successful attempts
which are made to eXpel the Bible from our
public schools, to abolish the oath, prayer in
our national and htate legislatures, days OF
fasting aud thanksgiving, and other christian
institutions OF our state and nation, and go TO
divorce the American government from all
connection with Christianity.
That written constitution, as fundamental
law ought to provide an explicit and undenlable
basis for the vital institutions Of the nation fol-
which 1t is formed; and the fact that the con-
stitutlon OF the United States may be, and is.
used against the existing institutions Of our
government constitutes the best OF reason FOL
| a religious amendment.
That such an amendment OF our national
! constitution harmonzlDg a5 II would with al
the precedents Of our early history, and with
religious acknowledgements in many of our state
constitutions, could not conflict with any indi
vidual rights OF conscience, just as the estab
llshment OF state education does not conflict
with the rights OF citizens who believe tina,
education belongs only to the family and church
or the constitutional authorization OF the wal
power does not conflict with the rights OF those
who denounce even defensive war as sin and
further il there be any plea for rights of con-
science 1t must be entered against the Christian
laws and institutions rather than against a con
stituhonal basis on which they might rest.
6 That the indifference of many processing
christians, as well as the assaults of open enc
mics, calls imperatlvely on all who discern the
danger that threatens our Christian institutions
OF government, to unite and labor earnestly fol
their maintcnance and that taking courage
from review OF the past, and pledgiDg our
selves to God and to one another. we shall use
all means in our power TO uphold, perfect, anC
hand down to posterty the inheritance be
queathed to us by our fathers.

A GOOD SEED.


Spring is at hand and planting
time not far distant and we should
begin to think about the seed we
are to use. Some of us took care
to pick out and secure our seed
corn last fall and will not have
much trouble about. this part OF
spring seednOw, but others have
yet to get the corn they will
plant and great pains should be
taken that it be the best. The
cheapest plan is TO save it in the
fall, leaving part of the husks on
the ear; these are stripped back
and can be braided or tied with
others, forming a bunch of ears
that can be hung over a pole or
against a wall out of the way of
rats and mice. In smaller grains
care is needed that no foul seeds,
such as cookie and the like, be
left in that which we plant. This
will insure us with a clean crop
of the kind we use fits sound as
it should be. Don't use grain for
seed from a crop hat has been
below the average, shrunken and
under weight. Always look for
the best and then do all you can
to better the variety. In vegeta
bles the same rule holds good.
We must not think hat little, in
ferior potatoes are as good as any
for seed-plant che large, smooth
ones of the best kind and we shall
get our money back and much
more when the digging time
comes. When the harvest of
each crop we raise comes we
should then and there secure our
seed for the next season SO far as
practicable to do so.

SAVE III ASHES.

The value of ashes, unleached
or leached, to crops is not appre-
ciated by farmers as it should be.
We all know that in burning
wood but a small part is left as
ashes; the larger part, 80 to 9S
per cent, passes off into the air;
then it is apparent that the wood
during its growth in the forest has
taken from the air this 80 to 50
per cent of its substance which
goes back INTO the atmosphere as
combustion or burning goes on,
and the part of the tree gets
from the ground is represented
by the ashes left. The ashes of
oak are made up says the Nea0

The Times then continues. vi
will be seen by a glance at the
above that wood ashes contain all
the inorganic constituents Of
plant food, and tits no wonder
that are they appreciated when
their merits are known. :
Besides furnishing direct food for
plants, ashes operate indirectly
by aiding in the decomposition OF
the vegetable and inorganic mat
ter found in the soil, and setting
their latent powers free. Y y "
We have never known them to
fail of doing good to any crop.
They contain so many constitu
ents of plant food, that they can
scarcely fail of supplying a want
to all kinds of vegetation. Grass,
graip, Eoots, and fruits are all
benefited by a liberal application
of wood ashes"
1t is manifest that the part OF
vegetation, let it be wood in the
forest or grain or roots in the
field, which is taken from the soil
is left in the ash, and consequent
" should be returned to the land
again in some shape. Potatoes
extract potash in large quantities
from No soil they grow in. If
we burn G9e we shall find the ash
about half made up of potash,
hence we ear assily see by refer
,ence to the above table that
ashes will be very helpful
to such a crop. Potash and phos-
plate of lime largely compose
the ash of turnips, therefore ashes
are just what they need. Con
tinucd pasturing of land exhausts
the potash, lime &c, till, as we
t,:aye often seen, the grass be-
comes insufficient and wild stuff
springs up. A good coat CLASHES
on such land will have a reviying
effect on it by supplying what
the cattle ord h2gSes have carried
of, and good grass will increase
very fast. .
Now some of us burn q good
load of wood every few days,
Our stoyea ard huge fire PLACES

from taking care of this valuable
fertilizer, and i applied judi

An American gentleman, lately q res
ident Of Mexico, discussed the Mexican
question as follows:
1.-THE history of recent revolutions in
Mexico leads me to believe that any
wise President of Mexico would be glad
to have the Northern States of Mexico
in the possession of the United States
It was in those States that Juarez
maintained himself so long. and it
was from those States that he marched
down to Magimilian's death. With the
help of those States in 1879 Gen. D5az
was marching to assured victory over
Juarez, when the latter's death induced
Diaz to lay down his arms and aoquiesce
in the succession of Lerdo. It was from
those States that Diaz, assisted greatly
by the bands OF the famous Cortina,
whom he recently saved from merited
execution, marched last year to the
overthrow of Lerdo. 1t is from those
States, assisted by the same bands,
that Lerdo's Gen. Escobedo ex-
poets now to march to the overthrow Of
Diaz. Gen. Diaz knows the country
well, and knows that it Is the great ele-
ment of danger to every and any ruler
of Mexico. He has sense enough to
fear it, and hence his cordial promise,
which he will execute IL permitted, to
aid the United States In suppressing the
bandits. Lerdo knows it as we'll as
Diaz, and hence his protest against vio-
lation Of the autonomy and rights Of
Mexico. The Mexican question is not
rattled. 1t never will be settled until
e United States governs, directly. or
adirectly, In Northern Mexico"
