The Newspaper as a Teacher.

The newspaper-the universal literature of
our peoples itself becoming a library of
! knowledge and art. No man could read
habitually even one of our chief newspapers
without an immense opening of his horizon
of thought, great quickening of his intellect
and substantial relation with the thought
and feeling of the whole world. The differ
ence between man who can read well
enough to enjoy his newspaper and one who
cannot is hardly to be estimated. | suppose
our newspaper education is the most induen-
| tial of all in this country. But it depends
for it's existence and it's Improvement on the
preparation for it's use and enjoyment made
in our common schools. It rises in tone,
spreads in intellectual breadth and increases
| in moral purity as the reading class becomes
more numerous and varied. It is a great mis-
take to speak lightly of newspapers. The
press, [ think has a somewhat romantic and
exaggerated idea of. its supremacy in creating
Or leading public opinion but in its general
educating influence, it's stimulus for thought,
it has certain tendency to create taste for
better reading than it can itself supply. do
not believe it is easy to overrate its national
Importance. Our schools areimproving and
they have made considerable progress within
the last generation chiefly in the attention
which has been given to teaching as an art
1t has been found out that teaching is an art
and must be made a profession, and that a
great economy OF tlLue anu money Is secured
by creating schools for teachers. What has
been thus discovered in regard to secular
teaching will ultimately have to be learned in
regard to religious teaching. Indeed, blum
dering attempts in this direction already very
largely exist but as they are usually based
upon erroneous or mistaken ideas of religion
they lack the highest advantages of definite
instruction, The aim at system is good, but
the system applied is usually poor. We shall
he too for a 1rnc iIoh
and religious education in this country, the
consequences of the necessary insurrection
made here against the oppressiveness of
scholastic theology and classical training

The New Haven District Ministerial asso-
citation of the Methodist church opened yes
terday morning at the Davenport avenue M.
E. church. Presiding Elder Hubbell occu-
pied the chair and Rev. Mr.. Buck of this city
was the secretary. At meeting the preyi-
Gus evening an informal talk on "The work
of God" was had, some fifteen or twenty
ministers participating. Among the speakers
were Revs. G. A. Hubbell, D.. A. Goodsell
and c. H. Buck of New Haven, W. H. War
dell of New Britain,.C w. Lyon of Seymour
and G. B. Ford of Waterbury. .
Yesterday morning the proceedings were
begun by Rev. G. B. Dusinberre speaking up
on ssThe Relation of Children to the King
dom of Christ" A discussion followed in
which Revs. Mr.. Horne of Clinton, G. s..
Williams of Hartford and L. S. Weed of
Brooklyn, N. Y, took part. TheIe was q
very interesting and animated discussion on
infant baptism and the duty of the church
toward bringing the children into the fold, Or
upon ''The Relation of Children to the King
dom of Christ, /" and the discussion finally in
Guided many doctrinal points,
Presiding Elder Hubbeu read an essay on
s'The Revised New Testament" Rev. Joseph
Pullman occupying the chair while it was
read. The essay criticised somewhat the
new version and the paper as whole con-
tanned many points of interest giving evil
dence of a careful and enlightened study OF
the question involved. Mr.. Hubbell's remedy
was embodied in his closing as follows
'sWhat we need first of all 1ssR commission
of truly eminent scholars appointed by the
patrons of the American, British, German,
French, italian, Russian and Grecian Bible
societies, who shall be amply sustained and
shall devote all the years necessary to the
compilation of a standard text of the Greek
| Testament. And when this is done we need
| an American committee of revisers, selected
| by each and all of the religious denomina-
| lions that sustain the Bible society, who shall
give us correct American revision or trans
| lation of the standard text"
The paper was discussed and the showing
of hands indicated that many were with the
essayist The discussions were frequently
| lively and harmonious. The other assigned
| topics for the day were review of the
| 'sProblem of Religious Progress" by Dor
| chester, S. NJ. Hammond; and review OF
! ''the Gospel of the Resurrection" by Whit
