From our Churches in Norfolk, Va
There has been season of rather more than
usual interest recently in both our Norfolk
churches. The pastor of the Second church was
assisted for several days by Dr. Wharey, of Char
lotte, and the pastor of the First church, the
week following, was assisted by Dr. Wither-
spoon, of Petersburg. There were nine addi-
tions to each church-fve of which in each case
were on examination and four by letter. The
sermons Of both the visiting brethren were richly
enjoyed, and there were more precious fruits of
their labors than the mere number of professions
indicates. The occasion in both churches was
that Of the regular winter communion-tbat of
the Second church being February 22d, and that

Hints to Presbyterians Coming West
by Texas Pastor.

To the Editors of Central Presbyterian:
1. Bring your letters Certificates of
membership with you, as it will save
both time and trouble And as soon as
you reach your destination enquire for
the pastor and the Presbyterian church
And remember that there are several
sure that you are right ask for the South
era Presbyterian Church. Don't wait to
be hunted up, but make yourselves
known, and you will soon find many
friends.
2. Bring your religion and your Pres
byterianism with you. l make this re-
mark because some come to us from the
old States claiming to be good Presby-
terians who reflect little or no honor upon
our beloved Church and her time-honored
customs The future of our Church in
Texas depends largely upon what you are
and will be after you settle with u.s.
You make the Church in Texas. You
will find many temptations, and trials to
your faith, after you have been here
awhile, that you have never known before.
Hence, how important to pray the Lord
to go with you, and to preserve you in
VIC ullIlSG VI GuS udIuSul JS anu UrldlS OF a
new country.
8. Do not make invidious comparisons
between things here arSl things where
you come from. We Texans are little
sensible about Texas We know it better
than you after you have been here only a
few weeks or months Many good people
fail to make friends and largely DESTROY
their influence by unfriendIy criticisms
and thoughtless remarks. Let the past
be past. We appreciate you for what
you are, not for what you haze been-
This may seem hard to you at first, but
you will soon learn that new country
cannot form its society and sustain its
life out of have beens."
4. Don't be in hurry to make pur-
chases and investments when you get
here. Texas is seven times as large as
Virginia, and at least two-ffths of it is
still for sale. Never buy real estate with
out getting disinterested lawyer to ex-
anime the title. You have little idea of
the land litigation here growing out of
old claims, disputed titles, etc.
s. A field of great usefulness awaits
and welcomes you, as Christians, and good
old-fashioned staunch Presbyterians.
WeatheJord, Tsras March 5, 80.
Very good hints We will venture to
add:

ginia.-EDs.

(From the New York Evangelist.)
John Bright on Nonconformity.
LONDON, February IA. 1880

Dear Evangelist, "A very interesting
course of lectures has just been opened
here on The Rise of Evangelical Non
conformity" The first was delivered On
Tuesday evening of this week, and three
others are to follow on successive Tuesday
evenings l heard the first, and propose
to hear the remainder They are deliv-
cred in Union Chapel, Islington, (Congrc-
gational), of which the Rev Henry AlIon.
ID. D., is pastor. The house, seating pro-
badly 1000, was packed, standing-room
and all
An attractive feature of the course is
that distinguished statesman is to take
the chair each evening The great Com
moner, John Bright, presided at the first
lecture, and spoke for half an hour. A
storm of applause greeted his coming to
the platform, and burst forth frequently
as he proceeded Although Mr. Bright
Is himself Quaker, he said "I have a
special interest in this great question, for
SINCE my boyhood have been accustomed
70 consider it; and I am myself, and am
not ashamed of it, sprung from the
martyrs and sufferers Of two centuries
ago"
Mr.. Bright defined Conformity" that
ls, Religion established by law as "a sys-
tenn built not on the foundation laid by
prophets and apostles, but on founda-
ton laid for political purposes, mainly by
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1880-03-10

monarchs and statesmen - system "un-
der which all the religious profession of a
country might be consenting and silent,
while the greatest guilt and the greatest
crimes ride triumphant in the State. "
Such system, said he, "leads to tor
por, numbness, and death. Noncon-
formity is that which declines to accept
such system" After drawing a most
vivid picture of the differences between
Nonconformity in France and England
some two hundred years ago, where in
the former it was crushed out and trod-
den down., and in the latter it thrived
and fourished under persecution" he
said: Nonconformists in England have
been and are now the great advancing
and reforming force in English political
lifep
ANEcDoTE OF BEER AND DISSENT.
Mr.. Bright said he had heard of an
eminent Bishop, who in describing par
ish, said there were only two things in it
to be lamented-" the beer-house and the
Dissenting chapel" He also told of a
clergyman he had met who thought him
self very liberal, who said he should
not object to Dissenters going to their
own place of worship if they would
go to his church in the morning "I
don't know said Mr. Bright, " whether
he considered that that was a case of bane
and antidote," but he said to him, " AS
you are so liberal, perhaps you will have
no objection for the churchman to 90 oc-
casionally to the Dissenting chapel? But
ne said Nol-that is very Ndifferent
matter. He fell back upon his orders
and his apostolic successioT=S Mr.. Bright
said he was amazed that so good and in
telllgent man as he knew the aforesaid
Bishop to be, should think that his " two
evils in parish, the beer-house and the
Dissenting chapel, could be mentioned
by him together in that sense.
PENN, HUME, AND MAoAULAY.
" One might say a good deal about
Bishops, but he would barely quote three
high authorities. A long reference was
made to William Penn. He then gave
the well-known remark of Hume $50
absolute was the authority of the Grown,
that the precious spark of liberty was
quckened and preserved by the Puritans
alone, and to this sect the English owe
VIZ "tAOAS AiCONlOll1 VI buelI constitution,
" From the bench of Bishops the Grown
is accustomed to expect the greatest com
plaisance
Then he gives Macaulay: at is an un-
questionable and most instructive fact
that the years during which the political
power of the Anglican hierarchy was in
the zenith, were also precisely the years
IN which national virtue was at the low
est point.
And now what do we see? In both
the House of Lords and Commons, the
Ministerial members sit on the right hand
Of the Chancellor and Speaker (the mem
bers of the respective parties changing
seats on a change of Ministry, but, ="
said Mr.. Bright, II observe the peculiar
fact, that whatever change there is in
parties or in the Ministry, the Bishops
always retain the same seats that is,
"on the right, with the party in power.

Preparations are being made for a
/ grand barbecue on the 18th inst, at the
Bloxham meeting, at Orlando.
A feature in the great Democratic
I meeting in Fanueil Hall, Boston, Wednes-
day evening, was the appearance of col
ored Hancock and English club, strong in
numbers, and in uniform.
"A terrible accident occurred in Jack
sonville on Tuesday. The wife and three
children Of Mr.. VIM. Clarke were fatally
burned by the explosion of a gasoline
stove. All the four victims, after horri-
bic suffering, have since died.
"A big meeting-with 800 mounted
Democrats in line and plenty of fine
music from Snider's silver cornet band,
stirring speeches from excellent speakers,
and a splendid dinner occurred at
Sycamore, Gadsden county, on the 25th
ult.
Some of our exchanges print the
name of the Democratic candidate for
Lieutenant-G Governor, L. Winer Bethel.
This is a mistake. His name is Living
stOn WeIlesly Bethel. In preparing tickets
to be voted it is not necessary to give a
candidates name in full, as Livingston w.
or L. w. Bethel will answer the require
ments Of the law. Make a note of this.
The Key West Democrat, besides
other interesting matter, very properly
prints the proceedings of the Cuban Han
cock and English Club of Key West in
Spanish. The President is Jose X. Es-
trada; First Vice-President, A de Lono !;
Second Vice-President, Ramon Monsal-
batch; Treasurer, Pedro Someillan Sec
rotary, Andres Estevez. The club has
ll5 Cuban Republicans as members. Sue

How will New York go in the COM
ing November? asks the San. The sup
porters of General Hancock outside of New
York need feel no apprehension on that
subject, it answers. There is a settled
purpose among the voters Of this State to
rebuke in signal manner the Great
Fraud of 1875, and to stamp their disap-
probation of this unprecedented crime
upon the brow of James A. Garfield, one
of its perpetrators. This alone would be
sufficient motive for inspiring the De
mocracy to put forth its best exertions to
deliver the State out of the hands of the
Republicans. But there are still other
considerations that give assurance of vic
tory. With perfect concord in the ranks
of the Democracy, with national cam
didate around whom all branches of the
party rally with enthusiasm, and with an
opposing candidate for President far less
acceptable TO powerful Republican lead
ers than Hayes Was in the campaign of
1870, no sensible politician 10 this State
doabts that New York win give . larger
majority for Hancock than Il gave for
