Donald Qate Secretary of the Common
wealthy and Major Baker P. Lee, form

much needed at the South, and we feel
assured that the more our attention is
turned in this direction, the better it will
be for the people of this section.

BLACK VS.. INGERsoLL.- The literary
editor of the Philadelphia Times OBJ
serves
1t was not difficult task that the editor of
the North american ReuieD set before Judge
Black when he asked him to write defence of
the Christian religion from the attacks of Mr..
Robert G. Ingersoll. A person of ordinary in.
telllgence who has the patience to read Mr.. In
gersolfs paper, which opens the August number
OF the ReUieD, will be astonished that a man so
densely ignorant of what he is talking about
should have so far gained the public ear as to
make 1t necessary for anybody to reply to him.
And yet one can easily see how the equal 10.
norance of many professed teachers of religion
has furnished Ingersoll colorado pretext for
his widest absurdities, and it is the more in
structlve, therefore, to see the calm assurance
with which Judge Black picks him up and
throws hin. person like Ingersoll is not
likely to be reached by logic, but if there are
any persons whose minds have been influenced
by his rhetorical smartness they cannot do bet
ter than read Judge Blacks crushing reioinder."

On the Delta Of the Niger the people by

and the churches are thronged every

at Bonny, studded with human skulls, is
going to ruin. The reports up to July

The SHINTo RELIGION in Japan does
not teach morals; it takes the position
that morals were invented by the Chinese
because they were an immoral people,
But in japan there was no need for such
thing, as every japanese acted Alright
if he only consulted his own heart"
How much of this sort of talk we hear
in Christian lands-that spirit of self
righteousness which sees no need of an
intercessor with Heaven And yet, we
are told that "the japanese are a licen-
tious people, who pride themselves on
their powers Of lying; and there is no
country in the world where life is held so
cheap"

vi O'ou, w ~ edcn, 10 celeDraCe lne LOrQ
Supper, and to perform other acts of wor-
ship. We quote only Acts Xxx: I, upon
the first day of the week, when the dis
ciples came together to break bread, Paul
preached unto them Gradually (and
for reasons which are manifest) the change
took place, and by apostolic teaching and
example.
We have preceptive evidence in Col.
ii: 16, for the change; "Let no man
therefore judge you in meat, or in drink,
or in respect of holy day, or of the new
moon, or of the Sabbath days. If the
term Sabbath days" means the Jewish
seventh-day Sabbaths, then there is no
obligation upon us to keep them. This
being the apostolic teaching and as we
also have apostolic teaching and ex-
ample to regard the Lords day, it fol-
lows conclusively that there is scriptural
authority for change of the sacred
weekly day in early Christianity.
Moreover the early fathers, from the
times Immediately succeeding the apos-
ties, testify that they and their fellow
Christians kept for religious worship the
first day, or Lords day, or Sunday, or, as
it was sometimes called, the eighth day
being the day after the seventh. The
author of the Epistle of Barnabas though
probably not Paul's companion of that
name, yet certainly only little later
than the apostles, says, writing of Chris
tians, 1--WE keep the eighth day with joy
fulness, the day also on which Jesus rose
from the dead" Justin Martyr, little
later, writes, "On the day called Sun
day all who live in citiesor in the country
gather together in one place; and the
memoirs of the apostles (gospels?) or the
writings of the prophets are read as long
as time permits; then, when the reader
has ceased, the president verbally in
structs and exhorts to the imitation of
these good things. Then we all rise
together and pray, and, as we said be-
fore, when our prayer is ended bread and
wine and water are brought, and the
president in like manner, offers prayers
and thanksgivings," etc. We might quote
to the same effect from Dionysius, A. D.
ITO, Iren@us, and others, but our space
will not permit. We conclude by saying
that while the apostles and the early
fathers opposed judaizing, and refused to
be brought into bondage by the Saba
tarians who contended that the seventh
day mast be kept, they never taught or
sanctioned the idea that the fourth COM
mandent was abrogated. On the con-
trary they speak of the decalogue, or the
commandments as the moral code for
Christians always and every where.
For calm and thorough discussion Of
the whole subject we would refer those
who seek full information to the num-
bers of the Bibhotheco Sac7'a for 1890
81. The articles were contributed by
DR.. w. De Loss Love, Of South Hadley,
Mass. We know of no writer who has
presented the subject in more satisfac-
tory way.
We may present another aspect of this
subject next week.
