AN old Connecticut paper, of the

AN old Connecticut paper, of the
year 1907, contains an advertisement,
signed by Mrs. Thankful Hutchins, in
reply to one that had been published
by Mr.. Hutchins, who accused her of
leaving his bed and board. Mrs. Hutch
ms says of her husband: "Oi the four
wives he had before me, the last he
quarreled away; how the other three
came to their deaths he best can inform
the public; but I caution all widows or
maidens against marrying him, be their
desire for matrimony ever so strong.
Should he make his addresses under a
feigned name, they may look out for a
little strutting, talk alive, feeble, mea-
ger, hatchet-faced fellow, with spindle
shanks, and a little warped in the back. "

Do Figures Lie ?

The Rev. G. W. Sampson, D. D., writing in the
~ y Observer, says:
The maxim that figures do not lie'' must be
carefully scanned when applied to general religious
statistics. Nothing could be more fallacious than
the reasouDgs as to the ineficiency of Evangelical
Christianity based on the statistics of the proper
tionate numbers of heather, B1ddhists, NOLAN
medaps, and Roman Catholics, as compared with
Protestants. The Evangelical Protestant Churches
of the United States enumerate only those who can
keep rank" as workers in their churches the
Roman population" of these States is reckoped
6 600 O00 or nearly one-sixth of the entire popu-
ston; whereas it is well known that this includes
all the children of those who come to this country
as nominal members of that Church, of which mum
Der probably three.ffths never go to the commun-
ion, and large number are attendants at eVangel-
ical churches. 10 Mohammedan countries, especi
ally in Turkey, as every personal investigator
knows, fourfftho of the people would avow the
Christian or some other faith if fear did not fasten
an unwilling yoke upon them. Aud who that sim.
ply reflects that the only great Powers of Europe
which are even called Roman Catholic are France,
Spain, Austria and Italy, and that these are only
partially Roman and still less Pspsl,-wbst inteli.
gent statiSliCian can be mised by the psraded num-
bers of that so called communion? The moral S,ody
of Evangelical Christianity over all Europe, as well
as America, and over large portion also of both
Asia and Africa, "gVes the lie to that class of
figures" which imply power they are tar from
possessing.

Colored Theological Institute at Tuscaloosa
Alabama.

Rev. A. G. Dickson writes to the Southern Pres
Selma to visit our churches there, and present the
cause of the Institute. He says:
1t thus came about that in compliance with
their proposal spent the third Sabbath of j anu
airy there-preachirg on sul jects of general rei-
gious interest, aud merely making brief statement
concerning our work, and our own view of its char
acler aud possibilities,
But on Mopdfy night business meeting was
CALI ~ xAistisus- numerousIy at
tended, Unt herved for action. When had more
fully eXpounded the work. and its FIJI ultes, and
its limitations, one after another OF the brethren
rose and declared his profound sympathy with u.s.
and his conviction that the only satisfactory course
the course OF duty-was to 90 on with the enter
prise.
Thereupon they appointed their own Committee
to make collections only asking me to remain a
DAY or two, to meet any questions that might hap
pen to arise. Time among such friends passed
very happily, as may be supposed.
And now their collection is all in aud amounts
to 1927. 10 this must oe added gift that had
come IN advance; so that Selma must be credited
with S242 for this struggling enterprise.
shall say no more of this much needed and gen
erous material aid but it would be injustice to my
own feelings, not to confess what comfort and en-
coursgement in most d ficult and delicate under
taking have derived from their cordial and vol
uptary fellowship in it.
1t would be pleasant to dwell upon some facts
concerning Selma. and our churches there-the
Sunday School of the First church, equally re-
markable for its cheerful, busy look and the sim.
plicity and finish with which everything seems to
be done; and the modest, useful, missionary
church, working with the Lords blessing for the
poor.
But it seems rather my duty to state something
of the task | am laboring at here.
But one student of our own Church is on the
ground-a licentiate of the Pres bytery of Memphis
Ten or eleven others have sent TO us for informa.
ton especially to the support we can give them.
1t has been necessary to reply that each one must
look to his own Presbytery, or members thereof,
for the funds he needs.
With the cordial concurrence, however, Of both
Dr. Siillmsn, and Dr. Waddel, | have invited the
colored ministers of the different denominations
about Tuscaloosa to come and study with us-so
many OF them, at least, as can read and write, and
have fairly begun arithmetic. And even as to those
who are defective in these respects, invite them
to join in such exercises as may be useful to them.
Also, when the way shall open for il, l propose to
form Preachers Institutes at accessible points else
where, for special instruction, Invitations to that
effect have already been sent out but no such
classes have yet been formed
One Baptist brother, and three among the Meth
odists, are now daily students with me and have
been greatly cheered by their interest and diligence
and the visible progress they make.
We would welcome such overtures as those of
Selma from any like minded churches ~

Dear Brother,-I wish to call your attention

THE action Of the Savoursh Assembly
gees back 70 the Revision Of 4 e Book made by the

who are scriptural electors in the spiritual king

Will you please inform me which one OF these
statements has the authoritative, official approva

IF the Book of 1866 has been changed, IN thu
particular, then, / am anxious to know, where
when, by what authority, and at what meeting o.
the Committee of Revision the change was made
| write this dear brother, in no fault finding Of
caviipg spirit but with the data before me, | in
cline to believe that the statement Of the princi
pie made by the Assembly of Memphis, 1866, tina
only the subjects of our Lord Jesus may vote il
His kingdom for His officers, has never been re
versed by the action of any subsequent Assembly
nor have been able to fnd any authority giver
the Committee of Revision to make this change -
The Assembly of 1870 authorized the Committed
to the mind of a majority of the Church as md
Gated By the returns from the PfeSbyterieS.
Did the amendments sent up indicate thu
change?
Ia the absence Of definite information write tc
the chairman of the Revision Committee for lgh
on this important point with the sincere hope ths
the Book of 1866 contains the authorized revision
of this part of our Church Government. With
high esteem, Faithfully yours,
