The Puritan Religious Idea.

There is no better way of finding
out what Winthrop and his friends
had in mind when thsy came to
Massachusetts, than to consult their
own written words. And when we
do this we see at once that their aim
was the construction of theocratic
state which should be to Christians,
under the New Testament dispensa-
ton, all that the theocracy of Moses
and Joshua and Samuel had been
to tile Jews in Old Testament DAYS.
Thew should be to all intents and
purposes freed from the jurisdiction
of the Stuart king, and so far as pos
sible the text Of the Holy Scriptures
should be theirs guide both in weighty
matters Of general legislation and in
shaping the smallest details of daily
lite. In such scheme there was
no room for religious liberty as we
understand it. No doubt the text
of the Scriptures may be inter
preted IN many ways, but among
all these men there was a substan-
tial agreement as to all important
points, and nothing could have been
further from their thoughts than to
found colony which should afford
a field for new experiments in the
art Of right living. The state they
were to found was to consist of a
united body Of believers; citizen
ship itself was to be co-eXtensiVe
with church membership; and in
such q state there was apparently
NO more room for heretics than there
was in Rome or Madrid. This was
the idea which drew Winthrop and
his followers from England at a
time when they might have staid
there and defed persecution with
less trouble than it cost them to
cross the ocean and found new
state.-John Fiske, in HGTper'S
Magazine for December.

Theatre.

Another very large audience as
sembled at the Theatre last night
to witness the second appearance of
Leavitt's All Star Speciality Com
pany. The performance was highly
appreciated by all present. Miss
Flora Moore, as anticipated, had so
far recovered, as to enable her to
appear, and she sang three songs.
The lady possesses a wonderfully
powerful voice, clear and sweet. 1t
is well cultivated and the lady
knows how to make it produce capti-
waiting music. She sang only part
of her songs last night, because she
was not fully recovered, but it is
promised that this evening, she
will appear in her complete roper
toire, This eVeningsthe troupe con-
cludeS its engagement.
This afternoon there will be a
grand matinee at the Theatre, when
the excellent performance of the
troupe will be repeated.

forces in producing state Of society
in which less money need Ice spent
for police and prisons. It's IN this
way that sublime specuacles may
lead to lower taxation, and SC be-
come worthy of the attention Of Mr..
Gradgrind.
If q narrow strip of land upon
both shores of the cataract should be
secured, widening from narrow
breadth at both ends to a width in
the eentere adequate to the seclusion
OF unsightly objects, and this inclo-
sure should be a public possession,
ana not subject 10 the whims of
private speculation and caprice, the
water could be carried to the mills
around the falls, and the grandeur
OF the cataract be preserved
unlmpalred. This is the sim
pie project. 1t was proposed
four or five years ago by some
OF The chief citizens of this country
and of Canada, but it was never car
ried to completion. 1t has now
been revived with Yigor because it
is understood that a settlement of
the estate which includes The Falls
will be made within year or two.
and every delay increases the diff
Guilty and enhances the cost of the
rescue. 1t is urged that the state
upon fair appraisal could take for
public uses the necessary domain.
No wrong to private owners would
be allowed. Or a company could be
formed for the private purchase
with guarantee of perpetual reser-
vation to the public. But the first
step is public desire that
Niagara should be saved. That
once awakened, Niagara would be
saved. 1t is not New York alone
that is interested. Let all Ameri-
cans who would preserve it beware.
For if Gradgrind should take alarm
at romantic and sentimental en-
deavors to rescue this glory of our
natural scenery, he might take his
revenge upon romance by lobbying
for an appropriation in the river and
harbor bill to clear out Instructions
in the Niagara River, and open it
up to sloOp navigation.-H0rper'S
Magazine for December.

The Rescue of Niagara

The summer saw vigorous re-
yival in the press of the effort to
arouse public attention to the neces-
SHY of an immediate effort to save
Niagara Falls. The rocky precipice,
indeed, is not giving way, and the
volume of water is undiminished.
The roar which has shaken the air
for centuries without moments
pause is as penetrating as ever. The
wild play of the rapids is not re-
Taxed, and the cataract is still the
sublimest natural spectacle upon
the continent. But it is precisely
the spectacle which is in danger.
Rock and water and rapid and cloud
may be there unchanged. But they
are practically not there, they are
virtually obliterated, if they are not
seen, and seen with due perspective
and circumstance and effect-seen,
in a word, as spectacle.
This is the danger that threatens
Niagara. 1t is that the great cata-
ract will be lost as a spectacle by
huge masses Of unsigntly buildings
gathered about it as a vast water
powerused by cheap vulgarization
of shops which destroy a proper
neighborhood. If any American
Gradgrind is of opinion that nat
ural spectacle" is sentimental nom
sense, he should at least remember
that it is just this piece of sentiment
tai nonsense which stands highest
among the natural attractions of
this country. Gradgrind would
probably agree that the English
people who live in the lake country
of northern England would show a
great want of practical sense, of the
very kind that ne esteems most
highly, if they should disfgure the
| pretty lake and region with uR-
slightly mills and improvements"
which would repel the great annual
army Of tOurists,and the great sums
of money which they bring and
spend in that part of the country,
il such Disagreement were lance
essary, and they could retain the
visitors and their money. and have
| the benefit of the mills also. Even
Gradgrind would agree that boy
would be a fool who would refuse
the privilege of eating his cake and
having it too.
Now that is the very miracle
which we can work at Niagara.
We can retain the sentimental
nonsense" as a means of inducing
travellers 10 come and spend money,
and we can utilize the Water-power
also. We can both save the sublime
spectacle and build the fatories. If
Mr.. Gradgrind does not care espec-
tally to see a river pouring over q
cliff, there are hosts of people not
of his family who do care. Mr..
Gradgrind thinks that a sunset is
stuff, and the Alps humbugs, and the
ocean a nuisance. But those who
are not Gradgrinds think differ
emily, They have discovered that
the power of perceiYing what is
called in natural objects beauty and
sublimity is one of the radical dis.
tinctions between brutes and men,
and that it is one Of the strongest

Guiteaa'S Health.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 6.-Scoy.
lille expects to leave Wednesday, going
to New York and stopping at several
places enroute for Chicago to lecture.
He places little confidence in the talk
about new evidence. The court in
banc wouldn't consider it any way. 1t
is equivelentto to an admission, that there
is no hope for Guiteau. Cox's errors,
if any were IN favor of the prisoner.
Scoville says there has been a con-
spiracy to hang Guiteau from the first
and it is bound to be carried out. He
says the officials saw Guiteau breaking
down mentally when denied visitors
after the trial, so they allowed them,
against Scoville's order, hoping, to keep
him until he could be hnng. Guiteau
your correspondent learns, has improv-,
ed in condition of late. His complex
ion is better, and he gives the impress.
ion of being a healthful and happy
man. He still drives good trade in
autographs and photographs, claiming
the receipts to be twenty-five or thirty
dollars day, which is probably an ex-
aggeration He has. however, ample
to buy newspapers and fruit, both of
which he devours with great relish.
He is doubtless in easier circumstances
now than ever before. He wears dark
clothes, fresh linen, and declares him.
self comfortable and happy, with no ap.
prehension regarding here or here

Positively Declined.

WASHINGTON, March 1T is stated
quite positively to-day that the Presi-
dent rendered the supreme Judge ap-
pointment to Senator Edmunds and he
declined it. Edmunds said,in CONVEX
sation with several Senators yesterday
morning, when it was suggested that
he might be offered this appointment,
that he would not accept it. 1t is said
on good authority that soon after re-.
ceiving Conkling's declinat;on the
President decided to offer the appoint
ment to Edmunds, and desired to send
his name to the Senate Immediately;
that the offer of the appointment was
made to Rdmunds yesterday afternoon
or evenig and promptly declined. A
prominent Senator said he believed
Mr.. Edmunds would have accepted
if the appointment hac been originally
rendered him. The impression now
seems to be that Judge Blatchford, of
New York, will be appointed. The
Associated Press reporter
has ascertalned definitely that the
supreme Judgeship was rendered to
senator Edmunds and declined.

TREMENDOUS CHANGES.
Predicted by Prot. Tiee as the he.
suit of Electricity.

Prof. Tice, the weather prophet, the
predictor of earthquakes, and elucida-
tor of cyclones, was met on the street
yesterday looking quite fresh, having
just returned from a lecture tour in
Ohio. He got home just in time, he
said, to escape the floods. He pre-
diets wet summer, which will be a
consollng fact to those who fear that
all the water is coming down and be-
ing wasted at this season when it is
not needed,
ProfTice is an authority on electri-
city, which he claims to be the mo-
tive power of the universe. Everything
he says, is moving, nothing stands
still, nothing is stationary, the moving
impulse being electricity. 1t moves
your hand, it moves all the planets in
their orbits According to some, the
creator hurled those vast orbs into the
space, and they were set moving, but
the primitive impulse was electricity,
the prime cause of all motion. 1t is
unquestionably the motive power. We
have the earth moving eighteen miles,
and six-tenths in a second around its
orbit; electricity is the cause. Elec-
tricity is convertible into light and
heat and the time will come when el-
ectricity will be our fuel. But there is
no way OF stoling it up for use. 1t has
been given out in the public press
that some one IS storing it. That is an
lmpossibility If he has done any,
thing, he has some chemical element
that will not act on something else.
Electricity has either got to be evolved
by either decomposition or recompo-
sition, which must be done before
electricity is evolved Water will be-
come the source of fuel; the lakes and
rivers will become reservoirs of fuel
whenever you have a cheap method Of
producing electricity. Electricity is
the soul of the universe. You can't
tell what it is no more than you can
the soul of man. Your professors
know nothing about it, except what
they get from books. The so-called
scientific men retard instead of advanc-
ing truth. The whole theory of the
old lightning rod is wrong. They try
to accomplish an impossibility.
The professor then explained the
possibility ofhaving lightning rod on
the true principle that would protect
our buildings, and he invited the re-
porter to call on the lightning rod man
at the hotel Barnum. As for himself, |
the professor added facetlously that he
was going to wedding; he had not
been to dinner, and he was going to
unite his dinner and supper in one
ON them together. During this street
Prof. Tice occasionally gave
dab at his competitor Vennor.-l
Republican.
