| Now, if all this benevolent machinery were
| put in charge of one board or corporation,
to be run for the common veal Of all, any
person of ordinary common sense can per-
ceive at a glance what saving would result
and how much more extensive field might
be compassed as well as how much more
efficiently the work now SO divided up
might be done.
But this Council. as appears by the pro-
gramme indicated in another column, will
consider subjects of wider bearing than
merely denominational interests might sug-
gest. The spiritual life, its helps and him
ORANGES; the Sabbath, the Christian family,
the unbelief of the present day and how to
meet it, social evils and the value and con-
duct ofthe press-these and kindred topics
belong not to the Presbyterian Church
merely, but are questions vital to Chris
tianity itself And their treatment and dis
cussion by men appointed to this service
beforehand will be, within the limited
time at their disposal, no doubt exhaus-
tive. Whatever the outcome may be it can
hardly fail to be helpful, not only to
Presbyterianism, but to Professionalism Also
More than three hundred years ago Calvin
sought most earnestly to promote this union
which his followers and successors are likely
in this generation to see consummated.
So desirous was he to see the
storm body of Christ" as he called the
Church, healed, that he was willing to pass
over ten seas to effect that object. But at
present, when the purpose is to unite the
sentiments of all good and learned men, and
go, according to the Scripture rule, to bring
the separated churches into one, neither
labor nor trouble of my kind ought to be
spared. And We are sure we only express
the common wish Of American Protestants
that this union in all the departments of
Church work indicated may follow the ad-
journment of this great Council, whose meet
ings are to be held triennially hereafter, and,
if it accepts the invitation already sent from
Philadelphia, will meet in that city in 1880.

CANADA Has MILITARY ORGANIZATION more

they pulled down the Union Jack and hoisted

ascertaincd. Ryan's life had been
spared by Sitting Bull himself, who
adopted him into his own family. Ryan
made several attempts to escape, but
being carefully guarded was unsuccess-

Sending Plants TO sleep.

Several members of the Parlslan BIO

gagged in n series Of experiments which
seem to prove that everything endowed
with life, whether animal, plant or fer
r1ent, is susceptible Of being brought
under the influence Of an@sthctlcs-ln

has been proved that the influence OF
.aum,thctics extended to all the animal
tissues, and last Of all 10 the central
nervous system. Hence it was argued,
plants having tissues must be also sub
iect to the influence Of ether, etc. EX-
periments have proved this to be the
case. termination is arrested by an

Ether arrests termination IN tins plant,
but does not destroy that faculty. 1t
