made in savings banks do not represent OK
clusiyely the economies OF the working
classes, but that TO considerable ext tent they
proceed from the thrifty and industrious
among the lower middle ranks. II Is no
doubt true, moreover, that manufacturing
operatives not seldom prefer trades unions
and the so-called friendly societies TO saw
ings banks as a mode Of Investment. Lotus
look, therefore, at some statistics bearing
upon the former associations. II appears
that tho total amount hold by friendly 30
cieties In 1865 was about $27, 000, 900, and In
1874 IL had risen TO $45 900, while on Dec. 81,
1877, the accounts OF building societies alone,
which constitute only one class Of these asso-
Citations, showed a total Of nearly Si20,OO0,000
for deposits and unappropriated profits. As
10 the aggregate amount Of the funds col
lected by trades unions, the evidence Is de-
fectlve. How large, however their income
Ia may BIO inferred from the fact that four
OF the largest unions expended In q single
year. 1877, upward of $1OOOOOo At present
the accumulated funds in hand of these four
societies are authorltatively stated at two
and quarter millions. Another return,
said TO be imperfect, computes the aggre-
unions at one and u quarter million dollars.
Such arc the sums which British workmen,
under the stress OF reduced wages and amid
the prolonged strikes OF tho past year, have
contrived TO lay by for rainy day These
data, striking In themselves, arc the
more noteworthy because the habit OF
saving Is much more difficult for the work
ing population In England than in some
other countries, as, for example, France,
owing to the much greater ratio Of Increase.
We may add that the laws OF inheritance in
the last named country unqucstionably tend
to foster habits OF economy which is cor
tainly not the case with tho British
Islands. Nor can 1t be doubted that,
next to the American operative, the
British artisan lives more comfortably
than any OF his brother workmen in other
lands This ls sufficiently attested by the
consumption per head OF animal and cereal
food, which, Notwithstanding the prevail
ing commercial depression, has sensibly in
creased during the past five years.

What English Workingmen Contrive
to Save.

We hear q good deal about the IMPROVE
dence of workingmen, and the old fable OF
the ant and the grasshopper is a favorite
text with some philosophers. OF late, how
ever, British economists have thought II
worth while to elicit some precise facts upon
this head, and the results Of their inquiries
attest truly notable degree Of thrift and
foresight on the part Of artisans In the
United Kingdom. The evidence deserves
the more attention because it has been col
lected by statesmen and writer's connected
with both of the great political parties.
Mr.. W. H. SMITH, for instance. in speech
delivered the other day at Westminster,
points out how hard 1t is to reconcile the re-
turns of savings banks with the alleged
shortcomings in the way OF economy among
the working population. Undoubtedly the
last two years have been marked by OK
IRENE distress, and we should expect TO find
them exhibit a signal falling of In the
amount Of deposits. Yet the facts are other
wise. In January, 1877, the deposits in
British savings banks We're a little short Of
1885,, 900, whereas a twelvemonth later
they exceeded S9Gs 100000. In other words,
the year 1871 conspicuous as 1t was for
widespread anu eAlitine oppression, VIII
messed not less than $13.OOO,OO0 gar
nered from the scanty earnings OF
the poor. One year aftcrward, namely, in
January, 1879 although the prostration OF
trade and manufactures had reached n eli
max in the interim, the working classes had
managed to further increase their store by
Sc, 100000, The returns from the postal
savings banks represent only portion Of
these figures, but they are specially inter-
esting because these institutions are en-
ployed by class Of very small deposltors
On the 18th Of January in this year the ac-
count for the week preceding showed an eX-
cess OF deposits over Withdrawals amount
ing to $4,000. At the close OF the next
week the difference in favor OF deposits was
100000, and in the week ending Feb. the
deposits were more than double the sum OF
the Withdrawals. No one who bears in mind
the untoward circumstances under which
these savings must have been made can fail
TO be impressed by this remarkable exhibit
il may be said. however. that the deposits

Scotch Presbyterians.

Tho Presbyterian Church Is the Estab
llshed Church Of Scotland For century
past there has always been an influential
body OF dissenters OF the same faith; and
since the secession OF DIR. CHALMERS and his
friends thirty years ago, the Presbyterian
dissenters in Scotland have been more nu-
merous and powerful than the supporters
OF the Establishment. Though they have
been divided into several branches, all have
claimed TO be more ultra and in1exible in
their Calvinism than the State Church.
Indeed, an alleged lack OF close adherence
10 the creed OF JOHN KNOX on the part OF the
Establishment, has been assigned by divines
and laymen OF the Presbyterian order as
one Of the main reasons for their refusal to
belong TO the State Church.
BY far the most prominent and influential
OF these dissenting bodies is the United Pres
byterlan Synod OF Scotland At the regular
annual meeting OF this Synod in May De-
claratory Statement was adopted for the
purpose OF explaining the sense in which the
Synod receives the ancient Westminster
Standards, including the famous Confession
and Catechisms. This Statement elected q
long discussion among the ablest members
OF the body, and was finally carried by a
large majority. and directed to be incorpo-
rated into the book which contains the West
| minister Standards, the JOHN KNOX Sum
mary, and the Basis OF Union.
| The Statement, which, by the solemn act
OF the Synod has now become one Of the
Standards Of Scotch Presbyterianism, Is an
interesting document to all who are watch
ing the current OF opinion In the great re-
49, Of ba Of ,ta. ft. lit
with the subject, the seven elaborate articles
Of the Statement Will be regarded as long
strides toward what Is familiarity known IN
this country as New School Presbyterian
ism. Indeed. on tho much controverteo
fundamental doctrines Of predestination ano
the DEGREES of God; original sin and tota
depravity; the effect, or rather the non
effect, Of ADAMS fall upon his poster
ity; the absurdity Of holding men ac
countabe for doing or not doing certain
things, when GOD had made 1t impOssibl,
for them to act otherwise; the salvation o
children, who die in infancy, and OF heather,
who never heard Of JESUS Of Nazareth-oI
all these points the explanations OF thu
Synod are in accord with those put fortl
by ALBERT BARNES, CHARLES G.. FINNEY
NATHANIEL w. TAYLOR, and other Amer
lean diyines forty-fve years ago, and fo
which they were arraigned as heretics b.
the Old School Presbyterians Of those days
As we contemplate these concessions o
the Synod, and see the most orthodo'
Church of the land of JOHN KNOX and VIII
LIAM ROBERTSON giving ground In thi
way, we cannot but feel solicitude about tn
ultimate fate OF the old-fashioned Calvinisn
OF the Presbyterian fathers.
