THE PASSION PLAY" IN NEW YoR

THE passion PLAY" IN NEW YoRE.
The churches of New York are protest
ing against the production of Mr. Salmi
Morse's " Passion Play at one Of the the
aters there, and 1t is evident that if the
representation is given it will provoke a
storm OF censure and adverse criticism
The instinct of the churches in this case is
probably sound enough. The production
of such play at a modern theater, no mat.
ter with what pretense of solemnity and
reverence, must tend to the evolution Of
that familiarity which breeds contempt
The period is not favorable to experiments
of this nature, moreover. Religion has
never had so much apathy and even open
hostility to contend against, and it cannot
afford to bring its sacred arcana into the
vulgar glare of theatrical spectacle. 1t
is quite impossible to keep up illusions I'M
der such circumstances. We know what
effects the Passion Play" produced in
San Francisco. The press endeavored to
deal seriously with it, but when men met
on the street and talked about it the i'm
preston was seen to have been of kind
to bring the whole subject into ridicule.
If, then, the churches of New York under.
stand their own interests, as they appear
to do, they will oppose the production OF
the :" Passion Play " with all their ener-
gies, and it is to be presumed that if they
combine for this purpose they can compass
its withdrawal.

CHILE AND PERU.

The long and dreary struggle between
these peoples becomes more lawless and
fierce continually. The Chileans are now
deliberately and Systematically ravaging
Peru, putting the inhabitants to ransom,
butchering the helpless, destroying every
thing as they proceed, and showing them
selves to be merely thinly-veneered savages,
entitled to no regard as civilized beings.
The people of Peru on their part appear
determined to resist to the uttermost, and
the presumption is that unless some of the
powers interfere Peru will soon be not only
ruined but depopulated. The apathy with
which this bloody and causeless war is re-
garded by other governments is bitter
satire upon the religious pretenses which
modern nations are so fond of advancing
There can be little doubt that the United
States and England could bring thestruggle
to an end with few energetic words, but
diplomacy knows nothing of morality,
and 30 it is allowed to go on, and will con-
Time until the hideous end is reached,
apparently.

The Trouble in Ireland.

LONDON, November 15th.-The murder Of
Wheeler is supposed to be an act of private
vengeance. Ne arrests have been made, but
the police are watching a man who was with
Wheeler when he was assassinated.
Reinforcements of 100 men have been sent
to Boycott's house.
Preparations are made for the military oc-
cupation of Headport, four miles further on,
in consequence of the threatening aspect OF
affairs there.
There was no land meeting at the gates Of
Boycott's house Sunday, but great meeting
was held fourteen miles off.
At meeting of 500 persons at Knockan-
rose. near Walshtown, yesterday, for the
purpose of "Boycotting three landlords and
land agents in the neighborhood, James
O'Brien, an Irish-American, in the course of
speech, said: If Boycotting these men
had not the effect of reforming them, the
people would resort to stronger measures, and
try if leaden pills would suit their digestion
The first duty of every 1rishman," he said,
was to get rife, and his second duty was
to use it," He added that there were 500, 900
stout hearts in America who would die happy
II they could xiii one cursed Saxon.
DUBLIN, November 15th.-In the case of
the indicted aStators a bill of particulars has
been furnished by the prosecution to the
traversers. 1t states that the traverseTs have
tried to terrify landlords and prevent them
from legally enforcing the payment OF rent
by holding meetings, displaying plscsrds and
banners, and circulating reports of speeches
made at the aforesaid meetings in various
papers
LONDON, November 15th.-It has been de-
cided expedient to retain an extra regiment
Of cavalry in Ireland throughout the winter.
The forty tenants en- the Loughmark estate
have issued an address calling on all Irish
men, regardless of party, for assistance in
money. to enable them to go to the residence
of Lord EIne.
LONDON, November 15th-About fortg
tenants OF the Loughmark estate, under the
leadership OF members of the Land League,
will leave Ballinrobe in a body Thursday for
Newtown Butler, to tender full rents to Lord
Erne, and ask him to dismiss his agent,
Captain Boycott. Lord ERIE has hitherto
declined to receive his rents, except through
Captain Boycott
BALTIMORE, November 15th.-Boycott

by putting down bundles of pressed hay and
brush and throwing on earth. The Pictou
steam fire engine arrived by special traiD at s
PM Both it and the Glasgow steamer are
pumping water into the fan shaft. 1t was
fully expected that heavy explosion would
take place Immediately after the entrances
were closed and the air shut off from the
mine, but up to 10 o'clock none had occurred.
ST. ELLARToN, November 15th.-The mine
is being rapidly flooded, to extinguish the
fire and stop the explosions.

This is an irrational hypothesis. That
which is false, that which is vile, that
which is dishonest, will produce, at all
times and under all circumstances, the
natural consequences of falsehood, knavery
and dishonesty. The man who habituates
himself to regard calumny with approval,
to smile at fraud, to condone theft, in con-
nection with politics, is not far from the
same liberation in regard to the same
abuses everywhere. He who has learned
to lie about his neighbor who is a candi-
date, will very soon learn to lie about his
neighbor who is not candidate He who
has learned to practice fraud in politics
will not be lung before he has learned to
practice it out OF politics. Traducers, liars,
swindlers, are so in the end always, how
ever partial and limited may have been
their experience when they began.
When, therefore, campaigns are made to
educate men in these views, it must be
understood that they are not merely ed
ucated to vice in politics, but that they
are being taken defnitively out of the
category of good citizens, and put defini-
lively into the category of bad citizens.
This may appear to be hard saying, but
it is true one. The only way to main
tain high national standard of morals is
to make one standard serve for all actions
We cannot have Devils education in
politics, and a service of God in all other
relations of life. We cannot train our
children in Islander and falsehood every
four years, or every two years, and then
expect to bring them up truth-loving and
self-respecting men and women. We can
not condone all these abuses and wrongs
on the pretense that they are committed
in the heat of party passion, and
refuse to condone similar offenses when
they are committed from other motives
We must set up national standard of
morality, and cling to it, or we shall find
to our dismay and confusion that national
standard of immortality has set itself up,
and that we are all vieing with one another
in retrogression instead of in advance.
1t appears to us that this is one of the most
solemn lessons to be learned from the late
Presidential election, and that it cannot be
too earnestly impressed upon the public
mind. Politics are as much part of national
life as anything is, and the moral influences
which control them will eventually be
those which govern us in our outgoings and
incomings. from the greatest matters even
| unto the least
