When certain private bill for the
Davment to one Luther of the sum OF
S85. which the y. S. treasury had once
owed and had long ceased to owe to
him. was some weeks ago under dis
cussion in the house, it was shown that
three congresses had been engaged,
during three times as many years and
at a cost of thousands of dollars, in
endeavoring to despoil the treasury of
such SIS for his ''relef" 1t was SO
strong an illustration of the aDSurdIty
of keeping a private congressional
calendar containing thousands of such
bills. that the chairman of the Judiciary
committee rose and stated that the
committee were about to report JOINT
resolution to amend the U. S. ConStl-
tuition so as to abolish the private
calendar, and promised that 1t should
have immediate attention and be
pushed through. A month and a half
of prOGtless legislation has enSued
since, yet we are not aware that
any such joint resolution has been
reported or is in contemplation. Is 1t
not time for such congressional REFORM!
The two uses for which the country
seems to keep a congress are-one to
do this work of a pettlfOgglng civil
magistrate in settling private pretended
claims against the government, and
the other an Exposition for the display
OF the American orator in his grandeSt
proportions to his delighted COnstltu-
ent. Surely these nuisanceS might
be abated without serious injury or
alarm in any quarter.

MINISTER'S AND CONSULS ABROAD.

MINISTER'S AND CONsULS ABROAD.
The discussion of the consular and
diplomatic appropriation bill IN the
house ought to make clear that the
whole business of keeping ministers
and consuls abroad, or diplomatic
functionaries rowing Europe accredited
to miscellaneous governments, should
be abolished. 1t is pretended that
they are necessary to impress foreign
nations with sense of the dignity of
the government, to help Americans
straying abroad for business or
pleasure, to any information
they may happen to require IN
their private affairs, and to be on hand
to engage in squabbles to which the
quasi American, native or naturallzed,
who becomes domiciled in foreign
country and seeks to cvade his obi
cations toward the government und.
which he lives, constantly invites them.
Since American bottoms have almost
ceased to be carriers on the high seas
consulships have fallen into beggary.
They have no legitimate class to prey
upon. The right of our shipping,
which it may be hoped is about to re-
vive, to be protected at the hands OF
congress from the sweeping impostures
carried on in the shape of demands as
consular fees, is itself of the first I'M
portance. 1t is difficult to see the dig
nifty or decency of having a class of
impecunious loafers strolling the streets
of foreign cities with some sort'of gov
eminent credentials in their pockets
that don't enable them to pay board
at third-rate eating and lodging
house.
BIGAMy on the Enoch Arden plan,
although slow and difficult, has had a
moderate run since the English
Laureate started it. We find the lat
est case in the St. Louis Republican
with the names suppressed for "obvlous
reasons" When the wife who had
been in mourning for her lost Enoch
,, wears discovered that worthy, a
grown daughter of his marriage with
her successor was herself just married
being in the last crescent of her honey
moon. The second wife broken
hearted, leaving the matrimonlalranc
the married daughter in wild grief at
discovering her illegitimacy, the un-
happy Enoch speeches. with sud-
den and overpowering sense OF shame,
make the tableau, the sheriff not hav-
ing yet entered an appearance.
Whether, indeed, the sheriff will join
the dramatic persons at all, or not, is
probably doubtful. That IS what Is
the matter with the Enoch Arden
drama. 1t wants the sheriff.

Religious Reading.

1t would be interesting, if it were pos
sible, to look into the motives of Chris
tians as they supply themselves with re-
Hgious reading. 1t would doubtless dis
close the fact that men are often willing
to tolerate for themselves and their house
holds great deal that is directly hostile
to the religion they profess, and that is
sure to educate them, more or less, either
into indifference or skepticism. Here is
the family paper" that does not believe
in the inspiration of the Scriptures, the
evangelical theory Of the atonement, or
the doctrine of final retribution. Here
is another that sneers at the Puritan
Sabbath" and laughs at the fiction of a
change of heart. A third praises the
destructive criticism, and gives its whole
influence to the analytical practices that
are so taking the gospel fabric to pieces
that it can never be put together again
The good man who sees these things in
his paper regrets them, perhaps, yet goes
on reading them and encouraging his
children in doing so. The same man.

affair OF partizan concern will grow indig-
nant and forbid its coming to his house
There is many man who can stand
among profane swearers without pain or
protest, who if he hear a word said
against his denomination will be unspar-
ing in his expressions of scorn. It is the
same way with his reading. He can tol-
crate columns of infdelity but word
that does not suit his sectarian, or parti-
ian, or factional notions and prejudices

To the Doubling Ones.

Ask thy soul these questions: l. Wheth-
er there be any gain by doubling? Faith
purlfies the heart, but doth doubling puri-
fy the heart? 2. Whether there is any
thing more pleasing to God than to trust
him in and by Jesus Christ, when all
comforts are out of view, and when you
see nothing but what is contrary to the
promise? 3. Whether you must not ven
ture upon Christ at the last? and if you
must venture upon Christ at the last,
why not now? When man has to 90
over a river, though he ride once and
again into the water, and come out say
ing, F." fear it is too deep for me, yet
considering that there is no other way
tor him, he resolves to venture. For"
saith he, the longer 1 stay the higher
the water will rise, and there is no other
way tor me. l must go through at the
last, why not at the frst?" And so he
ventures through. Thus it is with you.
You say, 90, but my heart is not hum
BILE; y, but | am great sinner, and how
can l venture upon Jesus Christ" Will
thy heart be more humbled by keeping
from Jesus Christ? and wilt thou be less
a sinner by keeping from him? No, GER
tain y; for the longer you stay from
Christ the harder it be to venture on him
at the last. Wherefore, if there be ever
a poor, dropping, doubling, fearing,
trembling heart reading these words,
know that l do here, in the name of the
Lord call out to you and say, 40 soul
man or woman-venture venture, ven
ture upon Christ now for you must come
to trusting in him at last, and if at last,
why not now?'-StUord and Tio,veL.

A Remarkable Contrast.

Bishop Lightfoot, the great scholar of
the present Episcopal bench of England.
says that it was only lust before the
middle of the second century each church
or organized Christian community had
Its three orders of ministers. But at
what time and Under what circumstances
this organization was matured, and to
what extent our allegiance is due to it as
an authoritative ordinance, are more diff.
icult questions.
This Is clear avowal that Episcopacy
was not the outward form of the print.
tive or apostolic church. He holds it to
have been established during the last
decades of the first century. He ac-
knowledges without hesitation that no
apostolic authority can be quoted for this
form of church polity. Hear, now, in
contrast with the calm words of this
scholar and divine, and his candid CON
cessions, with what great swelling words
an American Bishop talks before his lit
tie diocese of forty churches and two
thousand members. 1t is Bishop Sew
mour, of the Diocese of Springfield, from
whom we quote:
Brethren, our position in this land is
one of tremendous responsibility. We
cannot exaggerate it. We are put in
trust of SO much that if we prove derelict
and faithless we bring spiritual disaster
and ruin upon our whole country. We
are the one Holy Catholic and APOSTOLIC
Church in this land To our hands are
confided the Divine polity, the deposit
OF faith, the treasure Of the mysteries of
grace, the prayers CT the apostles in the
pure and primitive liturgy. We have
these unsearchable riches in possession
not as a reward of merit. God only
knows why we have them. We are no
better than others who are destitute, in
spiritual poverty, strangers and wan
derers. 1t is Gods free gift to u.s. it is
His election, choice of u.s. to be the re-
cipients of His good things, and His best
OF good things, that we may dispense
them to others. -. PRESBYTERIAN.

Captious Criticism.

All human performances are subject
to criticism, but there are services per
formed In the name of the Most High
which should ever be spoken of with
reverence. Wherever there is that sin.
cere and honest worship which God &C
cepts there is holy ground, which should
only be trodden with reverent hearts and
unshodden feet.
1t is said that DR.. Bushnell at one time
replied to some one who was disparaging
the singing at church or prayer meeting
1t is a0orshlp; and you might as we'll
criticise the gait Of the scapegoat that
bears away the sins of the people"
There are men who are criticised by sin
ners, but who are beloved by saints and
accepted by the Lord; men whose petit
tons may not conform to the rules of
worldly rhetoric, but which, nevertheless,
find acceptance in the presence-chamber
of the eternal King, and bring answers
such as their critics would long to share
in the closing hours of earthly life.
There are others whose words are fault
less according to the rules of the rhetori-
clan, but whose heartless prayers are but
an offence and an abomination in the
sight Of Him who sitteth in the heavens
Woe to that man who makes light of the
work and worship of the Most High God,
and who SCOTS at the prayers which the
King Of heaven bows Down his ear to
hear. Men may criticise themselves into
perdition Christian.

1t is sometimes given to souls to long

and enter upon that life of open vision
Nor is this always sign of unwilling

it is the proof of ripeness of holy charac

The Christian Cross.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples If an,

Has ever been the cross;
And when its hidden Joys appear

While struggling here with sin;

An no, it is within.
And if it bring him pain or shame,
He takes it joyfully,
For well he knows from whom it came,
And what its end shall be.

And as pledge is given,
