The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1879-12-17

The most curious trio we have long
heard of are Kalloch, of California no
toriety, A. Bronson Alcott, the lecturer,
and Dean Stanley. Kalloch seems in
clined to turn spiritualist, and says that
spiritualism has converted more infdels
and induced Their to have more intel
igent faith in Immortality than all the
preachers Bronson is smitten with ecs-
tatic admiration of the transcendentalst
Emerson. He says that Emerson so
teens with ideas that it is all the same
to him whether he begins an Emersonian
paragraph and reads straight on to the end,
or begins at the end and reads straight
back to the beginning. We have tried
transcendental paragraphs, and have
come to the conclusion that Mr. Alcott
is altogether correct. But the dean caps
the climax. He will have it that Theo-
dore Parker has given higher impulse
to theological research than any man IN
the nineteenth century If by theologi-
cal research " the dean means pantheism,
he is no doubt correct We are afraid he
means anything else. We can well re-
member the day when DR.. Henry Ware,
Jr., a Coryphaeus among old-fashioned
Unitarians, had to preach a sermon be-
fore Harvard University to vindicate the
personality of God as an offset to Parker
ism. Has the dean made another pro
digious mistake about American Church
history ?-Chmrchmun.

The DAILY CHRONICLE, and
| WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE,
will be kept up during the year
1879 to their usual high standard.
by enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants of our
readers, we hope to merit a contin-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, we commenced the pub
LEGATION Of the CHRONICLE. In al
these years we have battled for Re
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
AS a newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our telegraphic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit of
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor~
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
y correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub
lean journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
IF the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
lpon the country and the general
'eduction of values, we have decided
% reduce the price of the WEEKLY
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
lines. In the future we will send
'ur weekly paper to subscribers on
he following.
