paying s2,625 within eighteen months on account OF
interest on the mortgage commenced suit to have
the mortgage cancelled on the ground that it had
been obtained by false representations made by Lang
III regard to the iron agency business.
Judge Dykman yesterday filed III the Office of the
county Clerk his decision in the case. The validity
OF the mortgage is the point of equity decided by
Judge Dykmasl. lie finds that Wheeler, two years
after IT was given. wrote a letter to Mr. Boardman
fuy recognizing its validity. This after the time
ne claims to have discovered the imposition to which
he had been subjected. The Judge decides that the
mortgage was not void. though tainted with
the fraud alleged against it, Mr.. Wheeler could not
retain what he had received under the contract and yet
have the mortgage declared void. The position that
Mrs. Wheeler can procure u cancellation of the mort
gage for the fraud upon her is not tenable.

group of lofty minds became in doubt as
to the merit of civilization, and became
enamored of the tbickets and hills
and solitude. Over the mind
of Rousseon and Chateaubriand SIM
liar cloud was passing at the same time
in France. Thus came doubt and hid
for an hour 80 mighty good as all the
civilization of all time. 1t destroyed all
the arts, it silenced music, it laughed at
puIustrv, 1t resolved life into camp of
bushes, and diet of roots and berries.
Thus moral notions lie open to grave
doubt, and among them every affirmation
of religion. A retreat into atheism,
into the wild bushes and wild berries, Is
always possible but against this temp-
tation place the whole career of mankind,
and you will easily conclude that the
religion of humanity contains the out
lines of truth. As the Thoreaus, and
the Alcotts, and the Emersons were
called back from their tents and wales by
the mighty voice OF the world they had
abandoned, as the roar of all the COM
bined thoughts and achievements of the
past and the present came to them all
day and all night, telling them that
civilization was not blunder, but a
truth, so the heart bewildered in religion
may become reassured If it will turn
from the small to the great, and will ask
the human soul everywhere to sum up
for it the virtues of faith in God. To
you thus gazing, religion will come in
the similitude of fact, not truth of
which you can not doubt, but as an idea
standing near by the most absolute
verify. 1t is indeed possible to question
the authority Of Christ, but to question
the authority of atheism, that god of
night and oblivion, Is more possible and
easy still for it has never acted like
truth, carrying men to grandeur on
proud wings. And hence the soul filed
with the solemn mystery of life and
death, would better say, ~ should pre-
Ter to fasten the sandal of Jesus rather
than receive from atheism crown;
would rather touch the hem of the
garments of Christ than be myself
arrayed in the richest drapery of un-
belief.n
