SCOTCH SERMONS. D. Appleton Co. 1880.
In collection of Scotch Sermons one might
naturally expect to find the Gospel in Its fulness
and richness. Scotland has had many noble
preachers; and In the ministry of her Church
there are now men whose preaching is bless
ing to her Christian congregations. But the
reader who takes up this volume with the hope
OF finding faithful presentation of the gospel
will be sadly disappointed The principle of
selection has led the editor to bring together the
dlscourses OF few men, who, for the most part
seem to glory in preaching another gospel"
He says: This volume has originated in the
wish to gather together a few specimens of a
style OF teaching which increasingly prevails
among the clergy>of the Scottish Church"
The collection contains twenty three sermons
by twelve different writers. In not one of these
sermons is the great salvation fairly set forth
and many of them contain statements opposed
to the essential doctrines of Christianity. Some
OF these writers not only avow their disbelief of
the standards Of the Church which thew have
pledged themselves to maintain, but question
the authority of the Scriptures except In such
portions as awaken response in their own rea
5OH anu conscience.
Rev. W. L. McFarlan. in a sermon the sub
ject Of which is Authority" says, Enligbt
ened Christians in this day feel that in this
manner they are entitled to deal with the Scrip.
lures. They claim the right to Judge each Of
their utterances in the light Of their own Chris
tan consciousness, and to deny divine authori-
ty to any Of them which fall beneath the ethical
standards which, as men illuminated by the
spirit Of Christ, they have set up for their own
guidance. They deny all Divine authority I
may add, to those portions Of Scripture which
treat OF matters which belong more properly to
science and history than to religion. (P. 1877
In another sermon on The Things which
cannot be Shaken" he tells his hearers that
The old theologies are being shaken by the
new sciences" and that such doctrines as Any
The descent of man from the Adam of the Book
OF Genesis; (2) The fall Of that Adam from
state OF original righteousness; (9) The imputa-
ton Of Adams guilt to all his posterity; az The
consequent death Of all men in sin (5) The re-
demption Of Christ (6) The quickening in the
elect Of new life ETC., may all pass away
and only these things remain-that righteous.

who wishes to make us happy and that the spirit

that the rings alternately pass through
each other, but, through all these changes
OF form and velocity each preserves its
own individuality, and these two circular
masses OF smoke move through the air as
if they were something perfectly distinct
and independent. These curious expert
ments were made in England.
Helmholtz, therefore, has discovered
the fundamental properties of matter in
vortex motion, and Sir William Thomson
has stated: This perfect medium and
these vortex rings which move through
1T represent the universe A fluid fills
all space, and what we call matter are
portions of this fluid which are animated
with vortex motion. There are innu-
merable legions of very small fractions
or portions; but each of these portions is
perfectly limited, distinct from the entire
mass and distinct from all others, not
only IN its own substance, but in it's mass
and Its mode of motion-qualities which
1t will preserve forever. These portions
are atoms. In the perfect medium which
contains them all, none of them can
change or disappear, none of them can
be formed spontaneously Everywhere
atoms of the same kind are constituted
after the same fashion and are endowed
with the same properties. 1t is well
known, In fact that the atoms of HYDRO

This is very true, and yet from our ear

even the details of the trials and tri-
umphs of the great work at Bristol We
have never yet visited corner of the
earth so remote that we have not been
presented with the marvellous story OF
these noble undertakings.
We do not know of any other benevo-
lent or religious work, in any country,
which has been placed so prominently
before the world as an object for the
contributions of the faithful. Mr.. Null
lers total abstinence from solicitation we
regard as one of the wisest and best in
strumentalities he could possibly employ

We would make only one remark on the
foregoing, and that in connection with the closing
paragraph. The Observer suggests that there is
nothing peculiar about George Muller's work

The Church of Scotland owes it not only to
her past history, but to the cause of our common
Christianity, to utter her protest against such
specimens of the teachings of her clergy, and
may the great Head of the Church give her a
happy deliverance from all such teachers.

Vanquishing the Tempter.

L heard Rev. John Scudder relate in
our church, one evening, his method of
giving to the Lord. He said, in sub
stance, that he formerly had fair fight
with Satan whenever he put coin into
the contribution box. "Oh, you can't
afford to give so much, was the instant
suggestion when he took out the money,
whether great or small, and the enemy
was so persistent that he often believed
him. But when he took out money to
use for himself, even if for luxury, there
was not a word of remonstrance. No
hint of extravaganza from this tempter
At last he silenced forever his clamors.

nothing LETT for him to say. He had fol-
lowed the plan for over twenty years
On the contrary, he believed it better the
longer he tried it,

enemies. 1t may be, that in the con-
duct of q few Southern sena-
tors, at Washington, the cue
for such offensive endorsements of a
trading President may have been
given, that Democratic distributors
of Republican patronage might ap-
pear as controlling public sentiment
in payment for enlisting on the side
of the President. The course of
Senator ConklinS now and in all
his past politicafhistory, has been
most offensive, but if there be one
feature in the course of Mr.. Gar

ton and consummation ofthis dead
lock, that commends itself to hon
esty and high-mindedness, the

The agencies now administering
public affairs are dangerous to every
principle involved in the admin
istration of pure government,
and this trading, corrupt crew,
one and all of them, Conkling, Gar

should be driven from the honorable
places which they hold by dishonor-
able means. .......
