The love that survives the tomb is
the noblest attribute of the soul If
it has woes it has likewise its designs;
and when the overwhelming burst OF
grief is lulled into the gentle tear OF
recollection, then the sudden anguish
and convulsive agony over the pres
ent ruins of all we most loved are sof-
tened away into penslve meditation CT
all that it was in the day of its lowell
ness Who would root snch a sorrow
from the heart? Though it may some
times throw passing cloud over the
bright hour of gsiety, or spread
deeper sadness over the hours of
gloom, yet who would exchange it for
the song of pleasure or the burst of
revelry. No; there is a voice from
the tomb sweeter than song; there is
remembrance of the dead to which
we turn even from the charm of the
living.

FLO WEBS IN A PRESB YTERLAN
CHURCH.

A correspondent of the New York EUan-
gehst, writing from Homer, Michigan, gives
glowing account of a recent communion
season at the Presbyterian church in that
place. After describing a very affecting
scene between the Rev. Bella Fancher and
his son on this occasion, the writer proceeds
1.-THE pulpit was abloom with flowers, fact
which adds much to the Influence of religious SER
vice, and is labor of love for which our ladies are
deserving of many thanks, and also for their usual
weekly offerings to this very acceptable part OF the
worship Of God. The violent storm OF Saturday
and Sunday prevented the attendance OF some who
had expected to unite with u.s.
We publish this to show that we must not
sit down under the idea that there is no Rit-
ualism anywhere but in the Church of Eng
land and its branches. The human heart is
the same in Presbyterian and in an Epis-
copal church, and we must not hatter our
selves that, owing to the character of our
services, We are exempt from the intrusion Of
follies that belong to the age, and are liable
to fasten on one sanctuary as on another.
The lesson ia that we mast guard against
the first inSidiOus approaches of this harmful
sentimentalism, and especially in our citiea.
The cities now govern, aud the propensity
towards innovations and aesthetic effects
among the fashionable ladies and gentlemen
in cities is extremely powerful.
This may seem to some small matter,
but such is not the fact; it is matter which
has assumed very large proportions.

WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON, as appears,
in his lifetime denounced and renowned the
Church, and, as far as we can judge from
the notices of him in the Northern press was
freethinker. But Mr.. Garrison was the
Danton of the Abolitionists, and some of the
religious people at the North are now throw
ing out the idea that although an enemy Of
the Church, Mr.. Garrison will probably be
saved as an ABoLITIoNIsT.
The Methodist ministers of Boston, on bis
death, passed series of very strong resolu-
tons extolling his character. The New York
Independent is very sorry for the attitude
maintained by him towards the Church, but
winds up an article about him with the re-
marks:
but there can be no question of the purity and
simplicity and godly faithfuness of Mr. Garrison s

Bishop Gilbert Haven, Northern Meth
odist Bishop resident in the South, presided
few Sundays since at a meeting held in his
honor in Atlanta, Ga, at which resolution
was passed, containing the following passage:
From this State and capital, where IS 900
were offered for the head of the great philanthro-
pst. we rejoice to make this declaration to all the
land, and call upon all to praise and serve the God
who led our Moses to conquer the Pharaoh of
American slavery, and to make his capt7es Free
We are panied to see this want of discrim-
ination in the Northern religious mind be-
tween Christianity as laid down in the New
Testament and the prevailing modern hu-
msnitarianism. Mr.. Garrison is dead, and
we have have no disposition to judge him or
to say aught against him. But when men like
Abraham Lincoln and William Lloyd Gar
rison are taken into the American Church
Calendar as Saints, it augurs a most un-
satisfactory condition of things at the North
on the subject of religion. 1t indicates
wide departure from the fundamental prin-
oiple of Christianity, and an utter confusion
of thought in the Christian consciousness of
that section with regard to the conditions of
salvation through Jesus Christ If Mr.. Gar.
rison is to be saved as an Abolition Reform.

ed by the following remarks on this subject
in the last issue of the British Quarterly Re
view:
1T will not do for US to take refuge in that In
stipctive horror of systematic divinity, which, If
be r tradition amongst u.s. is vain tradition that
we have not received from our fathers. 1t Will not
do TO say Our position is religious, not theology
cal we are more concerned with life than with
creed, with practice than with thought. with pety
than with speculation Why life practice, piety,
are in large measure built upon creed-are IN
large measure determined by and dependent upon
our ideas of God, our conceptions of duty, OF sal

ideas and conceptions, are our theology Yet Tor
some years amongst most Christian people, ex
cept, perhaps, one very select but not very large
section, there has been deep dlstsste Tor theolo
gy, an often and variously- expressed prejudice
against it. 10 the student days OF men not yet
old not few ministers OF different religious COM
munions, who had passed through college train
ing, might have been heard thanking God they
had never studied theology. La those same years
not few dispsrsging remarks might be read IN
popular literature as to the value OF the study:
and its uucouth and scholastic TECHNOLOGY was
not untrequently held up to ridicule lndeed,
common feeling seemed to be that to which Faust,
in his restless dissatisfaction with the knowledge
he had acquired, gave uttersnce:
"'Now have fully MASTERED, by hard toll
And jealous study, al philosophy;
Whatever law and medicine can teach,
And to my sorrow, too, theology;
Yet here / stand, poor fool, with nothing more

"But the modern spirit, Of which, indeed,
| Goethe was one of the early prophets, will allow
US to disparage theology no longer. 1t the scen-
tifc treatment of Christian truth has been rejected
as unsuitable, we now find the need OF it; for the
| task is taken up by no friendly hands, and what
seems almost the complete surrender of our tradi
tioual belief is peremptorily demanded. The
Nemesis has come. Failing somewhat in the
knowledge and discharge of our duty, we suffer the
consequences. IL is matter for thankfulness thai
now at last the public interest in theology has re

of theology; and suggestions are made from the
same source with an air of lofty wisdom that thu

there is Just now a remarkable revival of interes
