y The Democratic papers of Missouri are in
q bad way over the proposed appointment of
Gen. John McNiel rs United States Marshal for
the Eastern District of that State. The trouble
with him is, that he hung bushwhackers during
the war. However distasteful that may be to q
Missouri Democrat, it ought not to prevent his
appointment by Republican Administration,
aud would not, under one that was trustworthy.
Bnt perhaps Hayes has not yet got over his lu-
macy for conciliating Southern Rebels.

Progress of Missions in India
BY THE REV. r HnsK1N

BY THE REV. r. HOSKINS.
Persons in India who watch the pro
gress Of the truth see numberless indica-
lions of the steady spread of Christian
principles and belief.
AT first the task of ;onvertinp India
seems almost beyond the limits of posi-
bility; but the persistent worker soon
sees that the continued dripping from the
cloud will eventually flood the land
The district of Budaon, which has been
a stronghold of Hinduism, presents some
very interesting feature to the student.
Eight hundred years ago the Mohamme-
dams took possession Of the government.
and by every means available made con-
verts. New converts received grants of
lands, or well-paid service under the
Nawab, or were exempted from taxation.
or received compensation in some other
form
There are whole sections of this com
munity which became nominaIly Moham-
medan years ago, but which are lust as
really Hindu as any of their fellow-towns-
men. They observe caste, they worship
idols, and they refuse all allegiance to
Mohammed. This class of people is very
large and embraces many intelligent and
wealthy men.
Furthermore, the subtle influence Of
Hinduism has so affected the mass of
Islam that they have become polytheists
They may repeat the formula "There is
but one God but practically they have
very little to do with him. Their
prayers and applications are directed
to other deities, Many educated Mo
hammedans acknowledge this, and mourn
their inability forcibly to correct these
evils. They long for the olden times
when the impious and irrelieious were
compelled by the lash to conform 10. the
religion Of the State. Under the English
rule OF tolerance for all, Islam is fading
out That system has not vitality enough
to propagate itself without State aid
When the king could confscate Hindus
property and give it to new converts, i.
there were constant accessions but now
the faith has to depend on the zeal and
gifts Of its followers, and the result is
that for many years they have had no con
verts worthy of the name. Among this
million of people in ten years there may
have been score brought over from

questions: L. Are all the sinners, here,

these two questions will make him feel
