At the Las, meeting of the GaJeiM club j. c.
Brown made Speech the whole Of which was
devoted to the discussion of the tariff question,
This is the burden of the republican refrain, in
the hope that it will catch the votes of the la
boring men of Pennsylvania. While we insist
that the Democratic party AS whole Ia not ID
ftvo, of free tradA, we ais, insist that the
uestion of tariff is not a national issue. Every
true Pennsylvania, no matter what hl' roI'-
tics, is in favor Of a tariff that will protect the
industries of this State In other states 1t Is to
the interest of the people to reduce the 'ar'il
so that PENNSYLVANIA gets only what the o'heF
states choose to give her as protection against
foreign competit tion. The charge that the de-
mocracy favor a repeal of the tariff Ia simply
absurd But they must have something to 'a'S
about, and as the character of their candidates
will not admit of discussion, they are rednce'
to the necessity of talking about absurditieS

beat us. Our humanity invented ritual
isms never compete with hers successfully.
They are borrowed from her; they are
poor, pale limitations of her " "orig ginal,
genuine" article All they do for our
fashionable attaches is to cultivate de-
sire (call it aesthetic, or what you please,
it is not spiritual, which we cannot fully
satiate, but which Rome can. We are
acting precisely as the mother would, who
was resolved that her darling boy should
never risk his neck on horseback; and
should therefore provide him with a
wooden hobby horse, with an imitation
bride and saddle, and artificial name and
tail. OF course that only makes the boy
half crazy to get on the back of the real
" live" horse which he is sure to do. as
soon as dear good mamma S back is turned.
Mr.. Spurgeon is too wise to raise children
for prelacy and Rome in this way. He
honors his own primitive Christianity
He honors his own declarations as re-
ligious reformer. This is one great rea-
son why he keeps all he gets, and main
tains the vigorous distinctiveness of his
work
Europe presents another instance of
the folly Of all these borrowings. The
cities in the Popish States are all sup
piled with Anglican chapels. In every
one of any Importance, is the house of
worship, the English rector, the English
liturgy, and little congregation of Eng
lish residents and tourists These insti-
tutions have shown themselves abun-
dainty impotent to preserve English
Episcopalians from lapsing to Popery );

papist they have ever led to the light
AS the instruments for extending Christ's
kingdom in popish lands, they seem futile
The reason is explained above. High
Church ritualistic episcopacy appears to
the papist but poor imitation Of his own
religion. He says: If 1 want that sort
of thing, why should 1 run after foreign
ers, for their pinckback wares, when 1
have the genuine gold at home?

The Presbyterian Council.
PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 4th. 8


Me88rS. E}djtorS,-The second grand
Council OF the Presbyterian Churches of
the world has closed its sessions, and al
most all the delegates have left the city
to visit the college of New Jersey, pre-
paratory to final dispersion to their
fields of labor in this and foreign lands
Thus ends the most remarkable meeting
Of men which has taken place in our city
since the great Exposition of 1876. An
Exposition this also has been of the char
acter and products of Presbyterianism
An Exposition remarkable for mental
force, moral sweetness, and spiritual dig
nifty. Great men there were from every
quarter-Cairns, Calderwood, Rainy,
Bruce, Blake, Flint, in one magnificent
cluster from Edinburgh, Watts from Bel
fast, Graham from Liverpool, Monod from
France, and host Of greater and lesser
lights from America, Italy, Bohemia,
Greece, China, Japan, India, Australasia,
and the uttermost parts of the earth. /"
No lack was there Of delegates to a Coun-
Gil organized on the generous plan of not
only caring for delegates upon arrival
but also paying the expenses of the Jour
ney thither.. This munifcence insured
not only free Council but vast pro-
gramme.
The Attendance
was all that could have been anticipated
or desired. For ten days crowds knocked
at the doors of the Alliance. Few, if
any, tokens Of WEAKNESS were perceptible
In the long sttings-and then only be-
cause Of inability to hear speakers And
yet there was no special attraction to the
multitudes-no parade, no pomp-no
show OF banners. The long sessions were
occupied with offering of simple prayers,
singing of devout hymns, and reading of
carefully prepared papers. Only these
three instruments, prayer, praise preach
ing, were used to draw the multitude.
Thank God these are enough still. No
need to call in the Intervention of litur-
gies, gymnastic music, sensuous architec-
ture. The simple truth is still sufficient
to arouse men, to feed men, to fire men.
If this Council has shown anything clear
ly it has been that Psalms which voice
real praise, prayers which breathe con-
solous need and reverence, and men who
devote themselves to the highest concerns
OF society, and act as if they never meant
to lose. them from view-will dram men
and women-will fill empty pews-will
give true success. The papers which
made the most impression-the men who
hushed most quickly the buzzing crowd
were those who trusted most to the power
OF simple truth. Without being invid-
lous, | may mention illustrations of this
in the deep impression Cairns made by
his paDer ON Vicarioue Afoporoor4 E1r4
on Agnosticism, Witherspoon on Retribu-
ton, and Boggs in a few brief remarks on
the former paper.
The Southern Church
was well represented in the Council,
though we missed the voices Of those best
known in the North-Hoge and Robin
son and Palmer. Yet the calibre Of the
Southern delegates was superior, and
] showed that the younger men now rising

More Learning than Wisdom.

Prof. Robertson Smith whose extraordinary
treatment of the Scriptures has occasioned so
much discussion in Scotland is criticised bv a
leading London literary weekly for his lack of
caution and dogmatism in his recent article
The Hebrew Language and Literature, in the
E1'cyclopGdld Britannica. The critic thinks
it was written hastily, and that it is lacking
both In accuracy and form. Prof Smith. in
speaking of the writer of the Chronicles. saws
" He no longer thoroughly understood the old
Hebrew sources from which he worked" This
manner of speaking, the critic thinks. is " of
questionable propriety." We think, it suggests
the idea that learned man may have so much
conceit that he Is in danger Of being considered
remarkable for his lack of wisdom. This litera-
ry critic confirms the view recently given bv
