The evangelisation of the Jews IS 4
subject which ought to be dear to the
hearts of all Christians. AS a help to
the due understanding of the position
of the Jews with respect to Christianity,
Mr. MERyYN ARCHDALE publishes a
tract named The CHRISTIAN CnUncIt
AND THE Jaws (Simpkin, Marshal,
and Coz, IN which he labors ts Stow
that within the general Israel, there
always was particular Israel, the Israel
Of God, ''and that this became the basis
of the Christian Church, into WHICH are
introduced strangers and foreigners
who thus become fellow-citizens with
the Jewish saints and of the Jewish
household. So in Mr Arehdall's view,
the CHURCH is Israel with the addition
Of Gentle fellowheirs. Some interesting
particulars are added with regard to the
conversion Of the ancient people, from
which we learn that no less than $50
have of late years been admitted to
Holy Orders in the English Church.
But we are convinced that no great sue
cess will bless efforts which are directed
on erroneous principles, nor can we
hope to see call iscrael saved' til Mis-
sionaries teach the Catholic faith in alF
its fullncss, instead Of negative Pro-
testantism which is as little attractive
as it is satisfying.

duty
Now, if mssnasactufed saihis are
taxed to protect American doctors,
why are crude saints admitted free ?
The manufactured saint is costly
and bulky; and there are obvious
difficulties in the way Of any large
importation of the kind. The crude
saint, on the other hand, can be
imported in a hand. bag Or even in
pocket, and the amount of crude
saint that may thus be brought
into the country is practically un-
limited. To keep out the manu-
featured and admit tho erudearticle
would afford no protection to the
medical profession whatever, In
der such a tariff every man may
have a. few ounces of crude saint
in his house, ard thus become
whollyindependent Of the doctors.
We may then conclude that the
duty on saints is not protective

protected by it, The only other
explanation Of it is the theory that

This explanation is applicable to so

it to account for the otherwise. in

Robbery.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-The des-
perato situation of the Republican
party is well illustrated by the
methods which have been adopted
to raise money for the campaign.
Several weeks ago II notification
was sent to the employees in the dc
partments that they were expected
to contribute 10 the campaign fund.
Many of the clerks refused to pay
the assessment, believing that they
were justified III their refusal by
civil service rules laid down by r.
b. Hayes. 1t appears That n sys-
tenn Of downright robbery is being
practiccd upon such OF the clerks as
refuse To contribute voluntarily.
When one of tho 81 200 clerks in
the Treasury Department had re.
fused to contribute 10 the campaign
fund went 10 draw Ills salary Il
week ago, he was handed $50 by
the di1birsing officer, and informed
that $2O had Eeen retained for his
subscription to the campaign fund.
The clerk says tIlat his is not II sol.
itNry instance, hui that six other
clerks who had refused to coutri.
butte were to his own knowledge
robbed Of a portion OF their pay in
the same manner. None of :lle
clerks 50 robbed will make an aili-
davit of the fact, for the obvious
reason that il would cause them the
loss of their positions. 1t is said
that this system of rObbcry is prac-
tiscd with tho knowledge and con-
sent Of Alr. Hayes, and extends
through all the departments except.
ing that Of the Interior.
