The Irish Presbyterian Church.

MeSsrs. E'astors,-I may interest some
of your Irish readers to hear from time
to time, through the columns Of the Gen.
trat Presbyterian, of the doings of the
Church of their fathers. With your per-
mission l propose to drop you line oc-
casionally on this subject.
The great subject of debate at present
in the Irish Presbyterian Church is the
Instrumental Question" as it is called.
Two combatants have entered the field
The Rev. Prof. Killen, D. D., Belfast, es-
pouses the cause of those who are In favor
of instruments, and is at present writing
very trenchant articles in the local papers
in advocacy of this position. The Rev.
A. Robinson, Broughshane, is engaged in
reviewing DR.. Killen's positions The
controversy is exciting much interest.
The subject of debate is to come before
the Supreme Court of the Church at its
meeting in Belfast in June, 1882.
On the question as whole, the Church
is greatly divided. A majority of the
ministers are undoubtedly in favor of
granting liberty to congregations; but
the elders are as class, opposed to any
such concession. 1t should be remem-
bered that five congregations in the
Church, contrary to the expressed. wish
of the Assembly, have been for years en-
ploying Instruments in the worship of the
sanctuary. A section of the Church wish
these congregations disciplined, and are
accordingly agitating to get law passed
to this end. No such law at present ex-
lists. 1t is thought that the Assembly
will not pass any such law. Were they
to do SO the consequences would be grave.

The New Version on this Doctrine "
Messrs. EditorS,-A Correspondent in
your issue of November %, criticises an
article of mine in the Christian Observer,
headed as above I must ask space for a
brief reply.
I wish to say generally with regard to
the authorities he quotes that l do not
feel overwhelmed by them. I am not
without respect for human authority; but
having early observed that that colossal
curse, the Papal Church, stands almost en-
tirely upon it, l drew the inference that
the said human authority must be closely
investigated, and have striven to do so.
l examined Robson before wrote my
article for the Observer, and did not find
fault with his secondary meaning to cease
from, given in the definition Of Ratmgeo.
| thought them strong, but did not par
ticularly object to his parenthetical ex-
planatory terms aOithdrdaVn and aposto-
tlzed, as they by no means implied that
Christ had withdrawn or ceased from
the Galatian saints Neither Bengel's
Gnomon, nor Olshausen is to be found in
my meagre library. But l thank your
correspondent for quoting them, as he
gives me opportunity at some future time
to get nearer the source of that authority
by which the term Ratargeo in the New
Testament alone has come to mean
severed, that is, sundered by violence, or
disjoined. | will venture the surmise. it
begins with an Arminian source and has
succeeded in establishing itself in the
late Revision by a predominating inAu-
ence of the same character.
When | said in my article that the
meaning of the verb is to become idle
in all other places in the New Testament
l did not mean that that was the only
translation it had into English I sim
ply meant that to become idle, or some
equivalent expression was all the force
the word need have. 1 showed that /

only claim that which your correspon.
dent makes a halfway admission when
he says, "The rendering = NAV
impart its coloring to the other senses in
which it is used, and perhaps account for
them" / wish your correspondent tc
give some sound pathological reason foi
the secondary meaning seUered to the
word Ratargeo. If he will do so I will
admit his impeachment of hypercriticism
But until then / must claim to be within
the limits of a judicious critic.
AS to your authors ideas of "falline
from grace" he does not express them
as though he intended to place them il
autagonism to the onesI expressed in the
Observer, and shall refrain from com
menting upon them. do this the NOR,
readily because they are vague to my
mind and might misrepresent him.

WOMANLY MODEsTY.

Man loves the mysterious. A
clondless sky and the full blown
rose leave him unmoved; but
the violet which hides its blush
ing beauties behind the bush,
and the moon when emerging
from behind a cloud, are to him
sources of inspiration and of
pleasure. Modesty is to merit
what shade is to a figure in paint
ing, it gives boldness and promi-
hence. Nothing adds more to
feu,ale beauty than modesty. Il.
sheds around the countenanee q
halo OF light that is borrowed
from virtue. Botanists nave.
given the rosy hue which tinges
the cup Of the white rose the
name of maiden blush" This
pure and delicate hue is the only
paint Christian virtue should
nse. It is the richest ornament.
A woman without modesty is
like a faded flower diffusing an
unwholesome odor, which the
prudent gardner will throw from
him. Her destiny is melan-
eholy, for il terminates in shame
aud repentance. Beauty passes
like the flowers. which bloom
and die in . few hours /; but
modesty gives the female charms
which supply the place of transi-
tory freshness of youth.

One Way to Raise the Wind.

The men Of billiard, a small
Wyoming mining town on the
Union Pacific railroad, were
spelling for a spree, but lacked
money to pay tor it. At this
juncture the passengers on a
train were Mortified at the sight
of rough looking man bound
fast to a telegraph pole, while a
party OF miners were suspending
a moose from a branch Of a tree.
The prisoner begged the trav-
elers to rescue him, but the
miners said that he was a thief,
and had been justly condemned
to death. It was minated,
however, that the payment of
500, the amount he had stolen,
would secure his liberation. The
money was hastily contributed
and the train went on carrying
the rescued man along; but he
jumped off at the next station,
and got back to Hillirrd in time
to take part in the re7elry.

A man was lying, as was sup

hospital. His known assassin
was brought to his presence by
tie officers OF the law for identi-
fcation. mo, no. he mnrmurs,
gasping, chat is my friend; kiss

to have vengeance. That is
Vendetta.
Last night the body of an
Italian, murdered by an assassin,
shot down in the night from be-
hind, was lying in the station.
Stern law decreed none but those
privileged should enter, but as
the news Of the horrible affair
circulated, it reached the home
OF the murdered man. The law
and officers were powerless to-
resist the entrance of the mother
of the dead man, and his chill
drep. With wild wailings she
broke from the sinewy Italian
who held her, and throwing
herself by the bleeding corps,
kissed the pallid brow, the lips,
the cheeks, while the tears
coursed down her furrowed
countenance. When she arose
her face was as calm as an infant.
She murmured a brief sentence
in her pathetic language. and
