EUROPE.

The great event in Europe last
week was the death Of King, Victor
Emanuel of Italy. A brave soldier
but very dissolute man, he brought
about the unity Of Italy and put an
end to the temporal power Of the
Pope, who however outlives him.
Turkey has met with reverses at
Shipka Pass and other positions late
ly, and is now ready to treat for peace
Russia stands on her dignity but con-
sents to cessation of hostilities. The
war is therefore virtually at an end
or will be waged on a still larger scale.
There is great war excitement in En-
gland but it will probably pass away
without her becoming embrolled. As
q consequence the prices Of bread
stufs are declining.

HEREAFTER.

There certainly could not be a
more appropriate time than these
days of transgression for the introduce
ton Of proposition for the abolition
Of eternal punishment. Especially ii
it came from clergyman. There is
mixed multitude just now in exact
ly the proper state of mird to receive
such a suggestion with favor. The
clergyman is ready too. He is prom
inent English divine known as Canon
Farrar of Westminster Abbey. He
gave Ills opinion very emphatica]ly in
q sermon lately thai the words hell,
damnation and endless punishment
had no right to remain in any correct
version of the scriptures. Of course
the moment his sermon reached this
side the ocean Henry Ward Beecher
gave it his prompt endorsement. The
newspapers have given coplous ex-
tracts and learned although not very
reverent discussions of the subject
may now be heard in almost every
saloon or loafng shop in the country.
A decided disposition is quite natur-
ollv manifested in such crowds to
agree with II. W. B.
The clergy of various denomlna-
tions also feel that the question hav-
ing been thus publicly raised must be
squarely met. The popular interest
which has been excited they think
may be turned to good. The news
papers are accordingly reporting SER
mons from eminent orthodox minis
tiers in explanation Of the scripture
translation and the teachings Of the
fathers from the days Of Paul to the
present. These sermons show gen
eral concurrence of doctrine. There
is no change Of christian belief as to
the future, although some different
shades of meaning may attach to the
words used. The Philadelphia Times
gives the result of interviews with
Rev. Wheaton Smith, Baptist, Bishop
Stevens, Episcopal, DR.. NJ. Jastrow,
Jewish Rabbi, Rev. DR.. McCook, Pres
byterian and Bishop Simpson CT the
Methodist church on the subject, all
Of whom substantially agree IN their
views. He'll may not be a place, or any
fixed place or not & condition Of phys
ical torture by fire, but as to a state
of endless future reward or retr'
button and punishment they had no
doubt or disagreement. How it eX-
lists or what it may be is left to indl-
vidual thought. Tie general mean
ing Of the words used Ill scripture has
been assented to for centuries and
should not be changed. Although
their precise meaning might be open
to controversy they form the general
basis of christian belief. II. ". B.
stands pretty much alone in his
views at least within the pale Of the
