Ill Ad vised Contro'

Mr.. R.G. Ingersol', we sthins, shas,s IL
is allowed to occupy agreaS.. .'A'
pages in the latest number o.,
North American Review -
what is called a rejoinderto Judg
Blacks reply, contained in a for
mer number. If Mr.. 'rhorndikes
Rice finds this kind Of controversy
acceptable to the readers Of Il
once influential publications, that
is his business altogether; but in
the interest not only of religion
but Of common sense, it is to be
hoped that Mr.. Ingcysoll may be
allowed to have the field entirely
TO himself.
Nothing has given this mans
foolish diatribes amy popular sue
cess or any power to harm the
Christian faith but the mistaken
zeal with which ministers and
others have hastened to assail him,
and Judge Black, by entoring tho
lists to dispute with him, has given
a dignity to scofling unbelief that
it never would have attained other
wise.
IT is foolish to undertake an
argument with a man Of this kind,
who insists upon measuring the
infinite with his two foot rule.
No one with even the faintest con-
ception Of religion can possibly
bring himself to Ingersoll's mental
plane, much less ingersoll to his.
ile docs not know what faith
means, and his opponents never
can meet on common ground.
If they did he would simply resort
to burlesquc, and Of what possible
use is it to argue with that kind of
thing?
Ingorsoll's whole capital is the
cheapest kind Of smart buresque,
and nobody ever would have
dreamed Of dignitying Tt with a
place in a prominent review, or
even in the daily newspapers if
religious men had treated it with
the little consideration it was en-
titled to. The best thing tosdo
with men of this kind is to let them
alone. Controversy has given
Ingcrsoll all his prominence. If
he found nobody to reply to him :
he would soon drop out Of sight,

Docs the Drought Do Any Good2

The effect Of season Of long
continued drought is to improve
the fertility Of the soil. During
such a season the water in the soil
is continually rising to the surface
by capillary attraction and is there
cvaporatcd. It is precisely The
reverse Of the lcaching process.
Too mnch rain passing down
through an open soil has the effect
Of teaching out the inorganic ele-
mcnts and carrying them down
beyond tho reach of the roots of
plants. This Of course has the
effect Of inpovcrishing the soil by
depriving it Of those elemonts
necessary to the growth and ma
turity Of plants. On the other
hand when a drought sets in the
moisture from below, which holds
in solutian small portions Of pot
ash, soda magnesia and phosphoric
acid commences to rise, and as it
cvaporatcs from the surface it
leaves behind it iii tho soil near
the surface those inorganic
clements, just as tho salt water
when cxaporatcd will leave the
salt behind. In both cases only
the pure water escapes. Alhnat-
ter held in solution remains. oThc
effect Of drought therefore is. TO
bring up from the subsoil the ele-
ments mentioned and to deposit
them near the surface for the use
Of plants. 1t follows from this,
that soils arc improved by drought,
provided the amount Of water
necessary to the growth Of a crop;
is forthcoming. All of this goes
to prove that the soils of the
drought stricken sections are now
in a gooe condition to receive the.

A Child Of Many Prayers.

The editor of the London Cuckoo
tells the following anecdote OF
General Grant on the authority OF
Edwards Pierrepont:
When young Grant came to
New York from California. bro
ken man, having been obliged to
resign his commission as lieutenant
in the United States army, he
driited into a sort Of harbor Of ref
uge with his old friend Marshall
%. Roberts. Roberts wrote on
Ihis behalf TO Grants father, an
application which produced the
following characteristic reply from
Old Jesse: "Roll the whisky out oi
him. and send him home. Ulysses
is a child Of many prayers, and !
yet believe good will come Of him.
! enclose $50 to pay expenses.
One of the first houses at which
Grant dined after his election to
the Presidential chair. was the
house of Marshall o. Roberts,
When he left, pierrcpont and a few
others remained in conversation
with Roberts. "What a wonder.
fuI thing It is. " said Roberts, ''tha
/ within three feet Of where tn,
President elect sat at table there
should be preserved so quaint .
testimony of the unregeneral'
daysl' and as he spoke he pulles
down a scrap-book from a shelf
and read tie note Of old Jesse quo,

How 10 le Benefited b, Going 10 Church.

Every person ought to know
why he attends upon the preach
ing Of the gospel. We ought 10
have a well defined object IN visit
ing the place Of prayer. If we
drilt in and out Of the place of
worship without any high. moral
purpose of mind OF heart, the
probabilities are that our coming
and going will not result 10 us in
any marked benefit. We ought to
enter the courts of the Lord with a
d sire and aim to be made truer
aad pnrer, and in every way bet
ter, by being brought into a closer
Int macy with Christ and Ills grace.
The man who comes in such a
spirit is sure to be prohted. The
hymns that are sung will do him
good, even If they are not always
in exact time aud tune. The
Scripture lessons which are read
will nourish him. The sermon
may be very simple talk Of duty
or privilege, but he will get honey
and sweetness out Of il.
The act Of looking into his
brothers face, as he passes in and
out Of church, or shaking his broth
ers hand. will increase his neigh
borliness and love. In short. the
man who goes TO church for a
blessing is sure to get it. John A..
Hart, in Golden Rule.

A travelling mesmerist who visit
ed Patterson, New Jersey, lately
caused a good deal Of excitement,
and the boys began to Try mcsmcr-
izing each other. One schoolhoy
ionnd himself possessed Of animal
magnetism sufficient to make him
a good operator, and he gave a
public exhibition. Now the bows
may be seen in al he streets trv-
ing 10 mesmer.ze one another. A
few days ago a boy in one Of the
schools masmerized another in tie
temporary absence Of the teacher,
and set him to dancing on the plat
form. The children were in costa
sizes ofdelight oyerthc performance
When the teacher suddenly return
they sank into their seats and ap-
Peared to be diligently studying
their lessons. But the lad who
was doing the hornpipe on the
platform kept right on. The as
;onished school teacher ordered
him TO stop, but he paid no atten-
ton. Then she tried to PIT him OF
the platform, but he kept on dane
ing. She threatened TO summon
the principal TO punish him, but
that had no effect. Finally some
one said that the boy was mesmer-
lied, and il was not until the mes
merizer stepped forward and snap
ped his fingers in his face and call
ed out "all right" that the dancer
stopped. He said he was utterly
unconscious Of what he had been
doing.
