LOOKING EAsTwARD.-Th journals of
the Roman Catholic Church report, with some
hesitation, or rather in a vague, uncertain way,
that Pope Leo proposes to signalize his reign in
the Vatican by scheme which, if successful,
will certainly give a lasting renown to that
reign. He is said to be considering the old
problem of the reconciliation of the Latin and
Oriental Churches. And as he is characterized
by one of these journals as practical Pope"
he has made some efforts to solve this problem,
and unity what are called the churches of the
East and the West He began last year, we
are informed, by sanctioning the worship of
some of the saints whose names are inscribed on
the rolls of the Oriental churches Saints Cyrillus
and Methodius among others. He has estab-
lished several Colleges in Mesopotamia and
Syria for the education of Oriental priests. But
the master-step," as his eulogists say, is the
restoration of the Oriental liturgy in some of
the churches of Italy, in which it was once
used. A solemn celebration was lately held in
one of these churches, in the presence of six
Cardinals, in which the significant thing was
the complete re-adoption of the Oriental, rite
for public worship" How far the Pope means
to go in this advance no one knows, and wh at
It's effect will be has not yet been develop ed
The enthusiastic Journal from which we have
quoted, says that the new policy of his Holt
ness is creating ferment in the Greek Church >
Ferments," however, do not always result in
solid changes-Presbyterian

Brahn1o Public Opinion of India says
Babu Keshub Chunder Sen seems bent
upon keeping the world in state of per-
petual establishment. The most recent of
his freaks has been theatrical perform
ance, which took place on Saturday last.
The drama has been composed by one of
Babu Keshub Chunder Sens apostles
with view to illustrate the signal tri-
umph of the New Dispensation. The sig
ni6cant fact in connection with this per-
Torrance is, that Babu Keshub Chunder
Sen himself took part AS an actor, and
what is still more strange, he offered
prayer on the stage in his assumed garb.
Can man whose religious feelings are
really deep and reverent represent these
feelings en- the stage?

Rev. S. LYLE WATSON died at his
residence, near Bethel church, South Car
DINA, on November 18th, 1882, in the
85th year Of his age. He was faithful
minister Of the gospel about fifty-six
years, was licensed and ordained by the
Presbytery of South Carolina, and labor
ed for time as an evangelist in Ala
bama. In the fall of 1927 he accepted
an invitation to supply Steel Greek
church, North Carolina, and was their
supply and pastor for nearly twelve
years. In March, 1910, he accepted a
call to Bethel church, South Carolina,
where he labored as their faithful pastor
for forty-two years. Appropriate and
impressive memorial services were con-
Quoted by Rev. R. A. Webb, pastor Of
Bethel church, assisted by Revs. Wilson,

A CORRESPONDENT sends us notice
OF DR.. Pryors sermon preached on the
occasion of the fftieth anniversary of his
ordination. His ministry has, in many
respects, been remarkable one and has
been greatly blessed, not only in his own
congregation, but in other places where
he has held protracted meetings or
preached occasional sermons. Nearly his
whole ministry has been in his native
county and to the same congregation
and now at four-score years of age he is
as strong as ever for his work and
stronger than ever in the affections of
his people and in his influence in the
Church at large.
He left the practice of the law to en-
ter upon the work of preaching the Cos
pei, at the same time sacrificing the pros
pect of wealth, and has never for a mo-
ment ceased, as he lately had occasion
to state, to rejoice that he was called
to make this change.
He looks as if he had yet many years
to live and labor in the work he has so
much loved

PROF. Stokes, of Cambridge, read a
very interesting paper at the English
Church Congress on Science and Religion.
He stated as his view that in regard to
the Darwinian hypothesis hardly any
thing had been proved. All the length
he thinks they can go is, that it "possi-
bly, accounts for permanent or supper
manent differences between allied forms,
but it does not conceivably bridge over
the great gulf which separates the remote
forms of life"

Rev. CHARLES GARRETT, at mis-

since, pointed out the fact that while
100000 were contributed by the Yves
leyan Methodists last year for foreign
missions, Mr.. Bass paid $880,0OO for the
carriage of his ale. The chairman, AL
derman Stephenson, of Newcastle, stated
that while $5OO,OO0,OO0 were paid an
nually in direct taxation, only $5OOO,-
900 were contributed for Christian mis-
sions.

are of good report; if there be any virtue, and
if there be any praise, think on these things.

ings? If the man who wrote that wrote
it viciously, or with any selfish purpose
in view, he was not only the most su.
perb hypocrite the world ever saw, but
his nature was positively diabolical. He
was not only not good man, but he was
Mephistopheles.
The hypothesis is simply monstrous
and can only be entertained by mind
that is either thoroughly corrupt or fan.
tastic in its structure.
In fact, the infdel attack has ceased to
be made on the rectitude of purpose and
sincerity which actuated the apostles
That mode Of attack prevailed in the last
century, and it proved utterly untenable.
That the evangelists and the early teach
ers of Christianity intended aoeU is now
universally, we believe) conceded. They
were only mild enthusiasts $50 it is plead
ed), who labored under the influence of
bewildered imagination. When Paul
says he saw the Lord on his way to Da-
mascus he was only under strong hallu-
cination. When the disciples saw the
risen Lord, they were upset by the ex-
elements of strong emotion.
1t remains then in our day to decide
whether the apostles were men of sound
and sober minds, or the reverse.
If the latter be true, it is astonishing
what an impression they made on the
conscience of the ancient world, and how
they swept away Paganism, and how
their system to-day towers above every
other system of morality, as theory and
practice, which this generation knows.
Compare Scotland with France; compare
the moral results of the work done by
Wesley and Sturgeon and the Christian
mission, ries with the moral influence ex-
erted by Hume, and Auguste Comte, and
Stuart Mill, and Haeckel
Can a fig tree bear olive, either a
vine, figs? Can crazy man, with a
false system, hold the conscience of the
world for eighteen centuries, and create
such examples of lofty moral purpose as
the ORIGINS, and Augustines, and Der
nards, and Wiclifs, and Knoxes, and
Luthers, and Franckes, and Whitefelds,
and Careys, and Martyrs, and Towards,
and Alexanders, and Havelocks, and
Mofats, and Livingstones, and McAlls,
and Somervilles, and Havergals-and
others in all ages without number?
