BABY CARRIAGES AND BABY KILLERs.-rhe

WOMEN AND ThE PULPIT.

somewhat interesting discussion has been
had in the Presbyterian General Assembly, re

admitted christian lady TO his pulpit and al
lowed her to preach 20 his congregation. 4
neigh0onng divine o. the same Church, the
Rev. Mr.. Craven. was shocked at this unseen
ly proceeding and brought the supposed violat
or OF Church ordinances before the local Pres
bytery at Newark, New jersey. The Presby-
terv, having an eye TO the traditions OF the
elders, mildly censured brother See. With
this result neither party to the contest was
satisfied. Mr.. See was indignant at even the
mild condemnation passed upon himself, while
Mr.. Craven was equally outraged that il was
not more severe. Both, therefore, appealed to
the General Assembly. And in this august
body this mighty question has been pending
These wise men, these ecclesiastic solons. after

good and wise men, separated to a special work
gradually become recluse, fail to feel the on

because they themselves stand still that the
world around them becomes also stagnant I.
These men ought to know that in these days
among the most effective workers for religion
are many able and eloquent women, to hear
whom immense crowds eagerly gather and the
efficacy OF whose preaching is amply proven
by results. Will these men shut the door

narrow ordinances, against the manifest com

Grafton will, we are confident, live to see this
decision reversed and a larger liberty extended
to those noble women who are moved to labor
in this direction.

proposed throwing out these games Jmmedi-

different factions brought in their numbers in

made postponing action on the first indefinite

DYING OF BRAIN WoRK.-When we hear that
a man has killed himself by excessive brain
work, we felt that we should like to have the
witnesses in court in order that we might
rgidly cross examine them. What sort of
work was it? Was it brain work pure, or was
it mixed up with anxiety, worry and excite
ment? What we're the mans habits Did he
indulge overmuch in what are called stimu-
lants Did he deprive himself OF just allot-
ment Of sleep? II all these questions could
be asked and answered, We suspect IL would be
found that the mental energy died rather Of
want OF fresh air and exercise, OF too much
frewster in some form or other, OF horrible
financial embarrassment, Of late hours and OF
exctements other than those pnre work breeds

Within the last few years educational clubs
have sprung up IN various sections OF this
country. They are quite numerous in Michi-
gan; not only are the cities favored N this
respect, but in the sparsely settled districts the
inhabitants are becoming imbued with desire
to acquire knowledge. These clubs were in
augurated by women for the benefit Of their
Own sex. Various subject are taken up and
Thoroughly studied, such as history, literature.
etc. An ASSOCIATION Of this kind exists in Little
Prairie Ronde, Cass county. and lady who
spent several weeks last summer IN that neigh
borhood. writes:

one special study Last summer they made

this because Mrs. H., their leading power, was
giving her attention wholly to this study, and
could not afford to scatter her energies, while
it was an excellent thing for them TO be pursu-
