HAIR YARD.

The Northern press has good deal to
say (and sometimes very JUSTLY about our
shortcomings at the South; but there is
great room for Improvement even in the
land of steady habits. In fact, New
England is becoming mission field.
They have grown SO accomplished there
with their Musical Conservatives and
Museums of Paleontology that they have
forgotten their Christianity. At least
the picture drawn of Harvard University
by correspondent of the Christian Union
reads like an account of pagan college,
The following is an extract from the let
ter:
One wearies sometimes of hear the constant
outcry against the immoralities of Harvard I'M
dergraduate life 1t seems as though exaggera-
tion must have been let loose in some of the
stories of students doings. The charges, how
ever, are for the most part but too well ground
ed. If indeed, any one were to assert the i'm
possibility of a mans coming out as pure and
honorable in heart and life as when he entered
facts would prove the falseness of the statement
That there is public sentiment, however
among Harvard undergraduates to-day which
fact. A man guilty of the worst sensuality is
thereby debarred access to none of the prom-
nent social circles OF the college. This may be
denied by professors and friends outside the col
lege; it has never been denied by one man, grad
uated within the last five years. to whom have
put the question; and they have been not a
few. But the present object is not to inveigh
against Harvards morals There is a subtler
mischief at work, which Just because it is lack
ing in gross responsiveness is all the more dan
gerous. An undergraduate said to me within
few days: suppose there is only one man of
any prominence on the faculty who is distinc
lively Christian man This is not true, most
surely but what of the influence of a Faculty
under which student can live for two years,
and yet honestly, as far as his knowledge goes,
say the above? And although the statement be
not literally true it has somewhat of truth in it.
Few, indeed among Harvard professors to-day
assume to themselves more than scholarly in
terest in Christianity one among the worlds
religions. No student may disregard it. No ;
it is factor in modern civilization; but the in
terest is that of the dilletante not the believer
1t was matter of some merriment not long ago
to one of the most learned of Harvard's teachers
that his familiarity with the Scriptures had
been misunderstood as indicating that he was
devout Christian. Another professor said frank
ly that when young men came to him to ask
advice in moral difficulties he usually inquired
what they had been eating

RoME.-The Pope has great hopes of Mexico
On receiving deputation of clergymen from
Mexico last week, he praised the piety of that
country, and said he felt sure its rulers in their
own interest. would renew relations with the
Vatican.-Erchange.
The piety of Mexicol That is about
the Roman Catholic idea Of religion; and
yet there are people born amid the Pro-
testant light of England and America
who deliberately go over to Romanism.
The piety of Mexico" that is good.
Is not a little circumstance of this sort
sufficient to satisfy any well-ordered mind
that the Papacy is Anti-Christ or at
least, as John says, an Anti-C Christ?
If the Pope really regards the people of
Mexico as deserving of praise for their
piety, does it not prove that the Pope
of Rome is absolutely in the dark as to
what true piety consists in? IF there is
population on the face of the globe alb
solutely benighted on spiritual subjects,
we suppose it is the Roman Catholic pop
ulation of Mexico and South America.

as we should like to see provided. None
If our theological schools are on such a
footing as to furnish the complete pre-
paration which we think our candidates
for the ministry ought, as far as possible,
to aim at securing.
The very limited knowledge of Latin
Greek, and Hebrew which the majority,
perhaps, OF our candidates attain is OF
great value to them. They are far too
easily satisfied and we would furnish
greater facilities and give greater en-
couragement to pursue these studies
This is our opinion, and we give this en-
phatic expression to prevent the misap-
prehension that we either underrate the
importance of the ancient languages or
favor lower standard of qualification
for the ministry. We would that ye
all spake with tongues" But we do not
believe that knowledge of these Ian
guages should be condition, under any
and all circumstances of entering the
ministry. Such condition is not war
ranted by the history of the Church from
the beginning nor by the Holy Scriptures,
and the making of it is one hindrance to
the progress of the gospel. The door Of
entrance into the ministry should be
carefully guarded, but we have no war
rant to exclude man simply because he
may not know Latin, or Greek, or Hebrew
If he knows these languages he is thereby
better equipped. But there are diver
sites Of gifts.
There are many men who think Of the
ministry after they have entered actively
upon life, when it is in their judgment
too late to undertake the acquisition oil
new tongues, or to take up the study OIL
philosophy. Nor need they be men very
far advanced in life; they may be very
young men with many years Of useful
ness before them. There are plenty Of
such men in the South, at the bar, in the
medical profession, in the counting-room
and elsewhere. In all such cases the
Presbytery ought to have liberal dis
erection, where the candidate is otherwise
qualified by his knowledge Of theology
Scriptures, ETC.

WE publish this week some additional
articles continuing the discussion on the
subject of Church Aggressiveness. Our
columns for some time have been largely
occupied with this discussion-which we
invited and brought on. But we are ad-
monished that we must not weary our
readers by protracting even so important
and interesting discussion too long.
Correspondents, therefore, who send us
communications hereafter on the same
subject, need not be surprised if their
contributions are not used, especially if
they are long. We are not done with
the topic, and shall from time to time re-
Ter to it again, either editorially or
through our correspondents, but for the
present we cannot allow it to interfere
with our usual variety of matter.

THE discovery by M. Naville of the
site of the ancient Egyptian city of Pr
thoms is one of very considerable impor-
lance. He writes under date of Febru-
airy Cd, 1888, that the Identification is
now rendered certain by an inscription
on statue belonging to priest of the
temple which he discovered. Pithom, it
will be remembered, was one of the
treasure cities built by the Hebrews.
We shall thus see the very walls which
the Israelites constructed Pithom, more
ever, is found to be identical with Sue
Goth, and thus it fixes the site of the first
encampment on the route of the exodus
the starting-point being Rameses, the
sister town.

The Presbyterian says we must PRAY.
Slowly, but surely, this conviction is
working itself down into the heart of the
Church-that its enemies are numerous
and fierce, its work pressing and opposed
by bitter, hooking foes, and that its re-
fuge and strength is in God. 1t must
pray, and we believe it is beginning to
pray more. Only beginning, however,
we must add-only dimly discerninglthe
danger, and only family feeling the
urgency of the motives which move her
heart in its outgoing after God, the Rock
of her strength"

"PRAY, sir, said professor at med

why, that would poison a whole town."
only thought I'd be on the safe side"
responded the Irishman imperturbably
But" continued the professor, sup
pose a man did swallow half an ounce of
prussic acid, what would you do?" at

said the student, Ride home after the
stomach pump? Are you aware, sir,
that prussic acid is poison that acts
with great rapidity ?" ooh, yes, 1 knew
it," replied the student. Well but,
continued the professor; what would
you do, then, if you found your patient
dead when you got back?" "Do?' said
the student, why, I'd hould a post

mind until the metaphysicians
put it there. Men intuitively believe in
a God, just as they intuitively believe in
an external world. 1t never occurs to
them to doubt either. You may bewil-
der plain man with arguments on either
point. But still (unless he wants to be a
sceptic) he will always believe in both.
He knows, no matter what Hume or
Stuart Mill may say, that if he runs up
against post, he will butt his brains
out, and you cannot convince him that
the transaction is purely ideal one.
The argument for the existence Of a
God is frequently expanded into vol
ume-like Flint, or Janet, or Diman
but it strikes us that it can be put in a
nutshell.
The idealist can easily be refuted by
the inquirer's fasting two or three days,
and then asking himself whether he is a
mere idea or real person with a real
appetite.
The materialist (if that is the proper
word) can be refuted thus 1t is admitted
by both parties that if something exists
it must have always existed: the mate
rialist says that that something is Force;
the Theist says it is God.
Now plain people see intelligence in
the universe, and moral lar; therefore
on the first hypothesis, we have Force
Plus Intelligence plus Righteousness
and that is all we want to make COP.

WE have the clearest and strongest
conviction that every man who enters
the ministry ought to get the most thor
ough education that he can possibly Sc
cure. He will have use for it ALL If
the candidate is young and the means
are provided he ought to strive after the
very highest grade of scholarship, and
every aid and encouragement should be
given him to acquire it. The study Of
the ancient languages is, we believe, the
very best means for the attainment OF
this scholarship-and we should not only
regret but earnestly oppose any move
ment that would look towards displacing
Latin, Greek, and Hebrew from the pre-
eminence which they hold in our colleges,
universities, and especially in our theolo-
gical seminaries. There is nothing, ex-
cept the advancement of the kingdom OF

tribute to than any effort to elevate The

ATTENTION will be attracted by the
attempt of "P. B. P" to give Bible au-
thority for requiring of candidates for the
ministry knowledge of Hebrew, Greek,
and Latin. He points triumphantly to
l Timothy iii: q" A bishop must be
apt to teach" And then he naively
adds:
Now D. W. s.. will confess that preacher
who possesses a knowledge of Latin Greek, and
Hebrew, and all the sciences required by our
Form of Government, added to the piety and
zeal OF less learned one who is not acquainted
with these branches, is more fit to teach than
the latter"
