Mr.. MO0dy's Views.

Cleveland Herald: The evangelist was
sitting in his room at the Forest City
House, at Il liable covered with letters
and papers, when the Herald represent
tative notwithstanding of the infidel-
ity of to day, he alluded to the strong
hold which spiritualism mad obtained
in Cleveland. He said:
81 cannot understand the facination
this unhealthy and unholy religion has
for people. 1t strikes al the very root
of civilization and threatens the very ex-
istence of society. 1t is a religion whose
four corner stones are infidelity, super
stition, sexual lasciviousness and NOR
bid insanity.
Have you ever argued with any
member of the sect?"
sob, yes, dozen Of times; | have had
interviews with celebrated mediums,
and one asked me if would like to see
my father and talk to him. | told him
should like to very much but that !
would wait till got to Heaven.
What is your exact point Of belief
with regard to future punishment"
81 don't believe in q material hell of
birthstone. | believe conscience will
be sufficient punishment. To sit alone
and face the record of ones past sinful
life, to feel the burden of guilt upon us
eternaly, will be sufficient"
What is your opinion of Robert
Ingersoll?"
He is clever man, but he is all
wrong. He turns his back on Christian
ity, and then rails at 1t rs falsehood.
He tries to gauge the actions of God by
the intellect of man, and do not Won
der at his unbelief. do not condemn
him; his unbeief is probably honest, but
from my heart | pity him. "

The Condition of Iceland.
London Times.

In 1874 the king of Denmark restored
local self-government to Iceland, and
in that year, for the first time in nearly
century, It's own parliament sat and
made Its own laws. Iceland had been
degenerating rapidly. Its people were
leaving it in large numbers, and with
them Its Industries were disappearing.
Since then, however, great change Is
noted in both the material and moral
development of the country. 1t il
noted by correspondent that "the
finances of the island have been so adj
ministered that there is considerable
surplus revenue. Roads, in which Ice
land was peculiarly deficient, have
been opened to all the more important
districts, and are rapidly extending. Up
to the present time the country has
been without bridges, but two are
planned and will soon be constructed.
The income from the fisheries has been
increased by the establishment of fish
oil factories at several points on the
coast. Agricultural and pastoral in
terests have been promoted by sending
lcelanders to the continent of Europe,
at the national expense, there to STUDY
the most improved methods OF farm
ing. At Reykiavik lighthouse has
been built, and so nearly paid for by
port dues that the latter have been re-
duced just one.half. Increased COM
mercial facilities have been secured by
providing for the decentralization of
the island by the steamers from Den
mark twice every summer. Fifteen
ports are visited on this voyage. The
tonnage duty on foreign vessels is
abolished. From Russia there is in
an increased demand for the elder
down OF Iceland, ard from England for
Icelandic ponies and salmon" 1t has
become the legal duty OF every minister
to see that every child in his parish is
taught writing and arithmetic. Schools
of law, agriculture and technology have
been established, the national library
has been growing, and the arts are
hourishing. All this improvement is
attributed to home government.

A God of the PhilistincS.
Pail Mall Gazette.


An interesting aret biological discovery
is reported from Palestine. An Arab
who was quaIrying stone the other day
ut place about four and half miles
from GAIA, uneartEed u marble figure
suppos ell to he colossal god OF the
philistines. The dimensions of the
figure are as follows: Three feet from
the top of its head to the end of its
beard; q inches from ear to ear; 49,
inches from top OF forehead to mouth:
d inches from shoulder to shoulder: 81
inches from crown Of head to waist;
and 81 inches the circumference OF the
reck. The total height of the figure is
fifteen feet. The hair hangs in long
ringlets down the shoulders, and the
beard is long, indicating a man of Ven
cradle age. The right arm is broken in
half, while the left arm is crossed over
the breast to the right shoulder, where
the hand is hidden by the drapery Of q
cloth covering the shoulders. TAere is
no inscription on the figure of the pc.
destal, which is huge block carved in
one piece with the figure. The statue
was found i'll recumbent position, bur-
led in the sand upon the top of hill
near the sea. 1t had evidently been re-
moved from its original site, which is
unknown. Its estimated weight is b.
600 pounds. The Pasha Of Jerusalem
has ordered q guard to watch this relic
of ancient art and prevent an injury to
1t by the fanatics OF GAIA.

Irish Trading.

Some time ago, an Irish laborer on
the spree went into the shop of a coun-
tryman in Perth, and offered his hat for
a shilling that he might just have an
other "noggin Of the craythur, and
wash up for work again. The demand
was not great, certainly but poor Pady's
hat was no better than those Of the ma
jnrity Of his countrymen in like circum-
stances, and he was at once fatty refus-
ed. A customer in quest Of som ething
having called the shop-keeper to the
door, Pat then addressed the mistress
With:
"Shure, now, think he might have
given me shilling for that, men,"
She thought so too; and paying HIM
the sum sought, be was off III a twink
ling.
Eated with her bargain, she reproach-
ed her lord for his shortsightedness.
when, to her horror, he exclaimed:
why woman you've bought my own
hiatt"
Her confusion may be more easily
guessed than expressed. Pat perceiy-
NJ the shop-keeper's nat lying in 4 win
dow, slyly substituted his own for for ii.
and actually palmed upon the wife tie
hat of her own husband.

COTTON AT GALVESTON.

In the Galveston Nc,cs of Wednesday, the
third instant we find rather startling ex-
posture OF at least one of the means by which
Galveston is enabled to handle cotton at such
seemingly low figures as 1t boasts. When
our neighbor first set up the ostentatious
claim Of offering enormous advantages To
shippers nearly 80 per cent over New Or
leans we pointed out some Of the defects In
the showing such, for example, as freights,
llghterage, insurance, etc, and limited that
there might be other and still more
effectual explanations which Inquiry would
develop. 1t seemed very clear to us that
there could not be any actual and legitimate
difference III favor of Galveston over New
Orleans as a cotton market, and we insis ted
that any such difference must be superficial
and fictitious. The idea that Galveston, with
no channel, with no harbor, and laboring I'M
der all the disadvantages incident to such
could handle cotton more cheaply
and expeditously than New Orleans struck

The whole area Of Ireland Is about twenty
millions Of acres, two thirds Of which Is owned
by 2Ooo persons. few ~ whom are Irishmcn.
How this land was acquired from the natives
of the soil s a matter Of history. Henry II
gave away one-third Of the island to his
barons. In 1856 100000 acres were eontiseated
In Munster alone. James | took $4,000 With
a pen stroke, Stanford seized 240, 900 In Con
naught, and Cromwell contscated los, 23I
acres. At the close Of the reign CT William
III 10000, 900 acres had been eoniiseated. Early
In the eighteenth century the native Irish held
only one-eleventh OF the coil. During tho last
five years 100000 acres have gone 70 waste be-
cause the tenants would not pay the rent de-
manded. the landlords would not reiuca It. and
eviction followed. These facts have a direct
bearing upon the present agitation In truth
they are the very foundation WI Ill
