Ed. BANSER;--I have from various sources
that School Commissioner Baker keeps up q
multeripg because lam teaching under GER
tificste from bis predecessor. | have knowa
people to get rich by attending to their own
b1sluess. II ! do someumas Have my FUN
among my friends, / always try TO fill my
place in the school room as q prudent teacher
ect decently before my scholars and never
go with the seat Of nv pants out like Mr..
Baker. From what / nave heard from
Hickory Point district, think he ought to
go slow, and not be trying to find fault with
other teachers. His course, the present year,
in measuring teachers by his homo spun
questions. has produced much dissatisfaction
against him, and i see in the Vindicatol
that he now aims to repair his improper
course by using the questions Of the Stat
Supt. next year. Had he only followed tb
course pursued by his predecessor, by usinI
the text books IN examinations, instead o
his home spun questions, all teachers would
then have had an equal show for certificates
and such teachers IS Lafayette Bacon an
1 otnPlh WOulu uot uaNe ueeh ue'oa'Nu
The course pursued by Mr.. Baker has e.
far placed every teacher at he mercy, sD'
people and teschers are getting very tired 0
lit and I think they have cause to, and NJ
doubt this is the cause why he now change
his course in examinations for tho next yeaI
II bis past course has been right, 1t will b
wropG for him to change 1t, and II it ha
been wrong be ought to cf ange it.

vived the evangelical clergy or Prussia do not seem
wise to know their opportunity. by long custom.
and tll recently by law. every Prussian who
neither Catholic jew. was held to be
born and was compelled to be baptized. con-
frlned and married within the pale of the
evangelical church. Now that these laws
have been somewhat relaxed. and the people
have liberty of action in church affairs. it appears
that many are strongly tinctured with liberal the
ology The orthodox clergy are attempting to ex-
tirpate liberalism from the national Church by
stringent discipline. Ii they would have the manli-
their own they might set up their own standards of
faith and conditions of membership; but in this
State institution what right have they to impose
their interpretations OF Scripture upon fellow men,
bers who in the Church by the same
rights and the conditions with
themselves? The other day conference of
orthodox pastors assembled in Berlin; but
instead of considering the religious wants of the
people and how best to meet these they spent their
whole time in denouncing liberalism and declaring
that 1t should not be allowed foothold in the
national Church. This proceeding, Dr. Thompson
says has excited general ndgnation,' and as an III
stance of 1t the Doctor quotes the remark OF judge
strong in the confidence OF the imperial family that
the imperious assumptions OF the clergy
should be put down. The papers. too. the Doc
tor says. ringing with the question. ..ls
the Church for the pastors or for the
peope?' While the zeal of the orthodox
clergy is thus expending rsels. DR.. Thompson adds,
that just the border in Bohemia little banc
have left the national orthodox Church because OF its
by the police from meeting to pray and worship in
their own way. And the German clergy take no
interest in the matter than to say that the otho-
dox Church is good enough for them. Such anoma-
les DR.. Thompson thinks, will not cease until the
Church shall be wholly separated from the State.

SLOW TIME.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
desire to make . complaint through the columns
of your valuable journal against certain conditions
imposed excursonists and the public in general
by the Manhattan Beach Railway Company via Bay
Ridge and New York. For example, yesterday even
ing (20th inst) in company with q friend started
from the Manhattan Beach Hotel for New York. as
per time table, ut twenty minutes past oclock.
As we were allowed to pass through the gateway to
the outward train five minutes earlier, quarter
past O'CLOCK. we naturally expected to take
Immediate departure. Imagine our surprise, how
ever finding ourselves not only compelled to wait
nearly half an hour but actually debarred from
turning into the hotel. the gate the
meantime having been shut against us. and when
| demonstrated with the policeman ut the gate.
although he could give reason why We were not
allowed to return. excepting that the gatenian WAS
absent, he had the impudence to threaten any one
attempting to return. and nearly half hour
some two three hundred people were imprisoned
in a yard surrounded by high fence and closely
guarded by Coney Island policeman. At a quarter
OF eight however the train started for Bay Ridge.
and we were set free. On our arrival ut Bay Ridge
obliged to wait just thirty minutes for tho
next train. though the steamer Twilight was already
overcrowdcd. But arrived ut per =, North
River, ut ten minutes past nine O'Clock, or just
hour and nifty five minutes from the time
incarcerated in the pen ut the Manhattan Beach
Hotel. Is 1t necessary? NJ ID.
