under the vengeance Of a tremend-
Gus power, which should be ended at
last by the coming of u divine man
as deliverer, is the expression of
this universal hope. And so, be-
loved, through the whole of Roman
and Grecian mythology was the ex-
pectation of one who "would lead
captivity captive" in whom "mortali-
ty should be swallowed up in life,"
who would be Vanquisher of hell, a
bringer.back Of souls, and chiefly His
own from the prison house Of the
grave. Piteous lamentations at their
separation from the Father Of their
being are those strange idolatries of
the heather world. Miserable husks
devoured greedily because they bear
some resemblance to the golden ears
at home in Gods Holy Church.
Such is the testimony of history to
the universal desire of the human
heart for some object of its love and
worship, which while truly divine
should yet be as truly human,-a son
of God, who should yet be the first
born among many brethren.
And read, l say, how perfectly ibis
need was answered by the doctrine
of Incarnation The stangest and
most mysterious of all articles of be-
lief,-for nearly 1900 years it has
taken captive the affections of the
purest hearts and made to bow down
at its feet in all the meekness and
docility of little children, the most
exalted intellects to which God has
become Creator. To myriads upon
myriads, generation after generation,
it has been the source of the deepest
peace and consolation, and the in
spiration of the most sublime self
sacrifice. At the cradle Of the Incar-
nate Son, the choicest of the human
race have knelt in alteration, and,
like St. Stephen, in the supreme mo-
ment of life have died joyfully with
the cry upon their lips, "Lord Jesus
receive my spirit !" So true it is, my
beloved, that faith in Redeemer,-
who unites in His own person the di-
vine and human, who as man can feel
for human weakness and as God can
bind up the wounded spirit and lift
the sad soul up into eternal peace
can alone satisfy the human heart.
God be thanked, that to each one of
US Christmas comes like another an
gel from the band which sang the first
carol on the plains of Bethlehem,
with the same grateful message, "Be-
hold bring you glad tidings of great
JOY which shall be to all people," To
you,-O let every hearer take to him
self the assurance, to you is born
Saviour, able to still every craving of
the human heart. He is able to give
you perfect repose in Himself. He
is able to lift you above the tempta-
tions OF the world. He is able to
sympathize with you in your afflic
tons, to carry you in his arms through
the brief journey of life, and at last
to lay your weary head upon His
bosom and give you eternal rest in
the joy of His presence. Beloved in
Christ, put not away from yo,, the
faith in the incarnate Son of God
and SO lose everything which the soul
mast haze or perish. Cling to that
blessed and heavenly faith with all
your heart and soul until we are all at
last brought home by it to that land
"Where storms shall cease,
And surpes swell no more"

Question {? Has a teacher a right
to inHict corporal punishment upon
pupil? Ans. Yes. a teacher
should use judgment and not act be-
yond reason. If parent should
punish child, i G., cruelty, he
could be prosecuted for SO doing, or
if a teamster numerically whip or
otherwise punish his horse, he could
be prosecuted 1t is the same with
a teacher in furnishing pupil. One
of the greatest hindrances to success
in the common schools is the idea
which prevails among parents and
Pupils that teacher has no right to
punish.
There is no law prohibiting corpor-
al punishment and yet no law to
stand by or uphold a teacher if he
acts beyond reason.

eastern hemisphere.
Lake Superior and the state of
Indianna are about of size.
Asia contains 1000, 900 more

VENTILATED boots are the latest
novelty, The design is to overcome
the unhealthfuIneEs of rubber. An
elastic middle sole is arranged with
air cells, connected with tube ex-
tending to the top of the leg. The
weight of the body at each step
congresses the air from under tile
foot out through the tube. When
the weight is removed the atmos-
pheric action, or suction, supplies
air, and thus a circulation is Fept up
at each step. 1t is said to be good
invention. We now hope to see a
similar continuance on some peoples
other boots. as well. 1t would be a
great relief sometimes, in closely
packed churches, to those who don's
wear them-we mean a little ven
tilation or little water.

REPRESENTATIVE SPRINGER, of
Illinois, has introduced in the House
a resolution proposing a constitu-
tional amendment in regard to the
election of President, Vice-Presi-
dent and members of Congress. 1t
may be doubted if it will be
adopted, for the reason that it seems
wise and Just. Its chief features are
that the President and Vice-Presi-
dent shall be elected by the direct
yOteof the people, the electoral col
lege being abolished; the term of Of
fee shall be six years and the incum-
bents are made inegible for re-elec-
ton FOR the next succeeding term.
The term of congressman is made
three years. Of the many propo-
sitions to change the existing
order of things, none has seemed
wiser, simpler or better than
Springer's. Since the early days of
The republic, there has been but one
president Hayes who did not use
his Office to further his chances for
denomination. They have all done
things they would nat have done,
had they known that when their
terms expired they must certainly
60 out Of Office. Hayes would have
figured for reelection had he not
known that a second nomination
was among the impossibilities
Springer's proposition for Iengthen-
ing the congressional term is also
wise. There are very few men SO
quick and brilliant as to become
really active and useful members
during the first session of Congress,
and the second Is SO short, and so
much unfinished work is piled up
that only the shrewdest members
are able to get their measures
through. 4 four years term even
would he better than either two or
three years, for then a congressman
might be of some service to the
nation, and he wouldn't be under
the necessity of devoting so much
OF his time to securing renomina-
ton. AS suggested it is hardly
probable that Congress viii take the
necessary steps for the change.
Congress seldom does what it ought
to do.

1T WAS an act of belated justice
for the Supreme Court, last week.
ito return the title of the famous
Arlington estate to the son of Cen
eral Robert E. Lee. The Federal
government obtained possession of
the property at a tax sale, which
was brought about through piece
Iof dirty trickery. General Lee was
serving in the Confederate army,
and the Arlington estate was within
the Union lines. Under these cir
cumstances the commissioner ap-
pointed to collect taxes made a rule
that he would only receive payment
from property owners in person,
well knowing, of course, that Cen
Lee could not venture within the
lines of the army he was opposing
in the field. The estate was there
upon put up at auction and the
Federal government became the
purchaser and established on the
property thus acquired a vast GEM
etary for Union soldiers and a fort.
OF course, when the action of the
Federal government in such a mat
ter is referred to, the acts fits tenn
porary agents, filed with the vim
dictiVe passions of the time, is
meant; for the government has
through this decision shown that
as an organization it is a govern
ment of justice, founded on law and
incapable of being permanently used
as an agency for the vindic-
tive wrath that would wreak ven
geance on a rebellious general by
Selling on false pretenses the prop
erty Of his wife and child. But
though the title to the estate is now
restored to the rightful owner, it is
not probable that he will enter into
actual possession. The government
has the right to take land by con-
demnation for a fort and possibly
also for cemetery, and in any
event it would be a practical i'm
possibility to give up the ground
appropriated for the latter purpose
to the owner, and hence the proba-
bility is that the final effect of the
decision will be that the federal
government will simply acquire
lawfully, after making due COM
pensation, that which it has held for
SO long against law.

SENATOR DAVID DAVIS, of Il

successor, but they are vain if the
Illinois newspapers can be relied
upon as correctly representing the
prevailing sentiment in the coming

Davis. Indeed, the country quite
generally is not laundering for
politicians who are neither indie
