Mr.. Matthew Arnold.

1t appears that Mr.. MATTHEW ARNOLD Is
anxious as to the reception of him and his
opinions when he shall appear here on the lec-
ture platform. He seems to think that he Is
going to address public very different from
that to which he has been accustomed, and
one possibly inimical to him and his ways
Of thinking because OF It's prejudices, social
and religious.
But Mr.. ARNOLD will find aftor he has once
begun to speak that there was no occasion
for his preliminary doubt and timidity. His
audiences will bc mado up of two classes OF
peoplc-those who go to see him as n Curl
osityand those who are already familiar with
his opinions and his methods OF treating tho
questions he discusses.
Mr. ARNOLD modestly undercstimates his
reputation In this country, where his work
Is, OF course, familiar to all educated men,
and where he Is acknowledged to be perhaps
the greatest master Of English style OF all
contemporary writer's. Neither is there any
danger, as he supposes, that his opinions will
be regarded as irrcligious. The tone OF his
mind Is essentially reverent, and he Is far
removed from the class OF thinkers who are
now uprooting as superstitions the most
sacred and most venerable beliefs of man
kind. He has poetic rather than scien-
tiilc mind, aud In truth is altogether outside
OF the current of modern skeptical thought of
the materialistic kind.
Nor need he fear that any criticisms of our
society he may hitherto have made will be
counted against him. What he has said is
very mild in comparison with what we say
of ourselves. Moreover, what he has said
has been very true and very profitable for u.s.
His coming is compliment to us, and his
welcome On the platform will be hearty.

Where the Votes Must be Found.

The elections this fall will be the prelimi-
nary stages OF next years great battle. To
wrest from the Republican party the control
Of the Federal Government and reform every
branch of the public service. will be tho main
purpose of this Presidential contest. The
votes necessary to do this work and to secure
ample working power for the now Admins
tration must come from three sources.
The regular Democrats will, of course,
furnish the main share of these votes. But
theirs alone may not suffice to completely
drive out the spoilsmen. For the Democrats
to merely squeeze in and distribute the Offices
Is not the end in view; they should not only
get control Of the Administration, but hold it.
A great array Of votes will he supplied by
those Republicans who have left that party
or intend to abandon it in the Presidential
campaign. There is also a vast body OF inde-
pendent citizens who belong to neither party,
and resort to the ballot boxes in great emer-
gencies As they sway to the one side or the
other they usually turn the scale. Their votes
may be needed to enable the Democrats to
win in 1884 a triumph that will endure
Mr. TILDEN was the first President whom
the Democrats had elected in twenty years.
He was supported by the three kinds of
voters we have named Their combined
strength gave him the three States OF New
York, Connecticut, and New Jersey, on
which his election hinged. When he ran for
Governor in 1874, and for President in 1876,
he was gratitied by manifestations Of con-
fidence from voters standing outside OF the
Democratic organization.
AS it was in 1876. SO should it be in 1884.
II the Democrats are to win triumph that
will be so sweeping and SO lasting as to
afford them time for carrying out. necessary
reforms, they must not rely solely on the
voters OF their own party. They must SO
conduct affairs this year, and especially in
the approaching session OF Congress, as to
draw to the support Of their Presidential can
ddate the dissatisfied Republicans and the
unpurchasable independents.

He Must Step Down and Out.

BENJAMIN W. DOWNING, nominee OF the
Democratic party for tho Office Of State
Senator in the First Senate district, has
been found guilty upon an investigation be-
fore Gov. CLEVELAND Of grave malicnsance
in the Office of District Attorney, and has
been dismissed from that Office.
This event renders 1t impossible that Mr..
DOWNING should continue to be u candidate
for Senator in the First district.
Mr.. DOWNING may be very unwilling to
withdraw from the canvass while under the
weight of the Governors Judgment. He may
think that he can even yet be elected, and
that an election may serve to vindicate his
reputation. II this be his opinion, he is
grievously in error. Should he continue in
the field as Il candidate, he is sure to be de-
feated by majority that will add heavily to
the infliction under which he is now suffer-
ing. For his own sake he ought immedl-
ately to retire.
But If he will not retire, it is the duty OF
the authorities in the Democratic party OF
the First district to retire him, and to put o
suitable candidate in his place.

The Episcopal Pastoral Letter.

The Pastoral Letter Of the Bishops OF the
Episcopal Church, read at the close OF the
Convention at Philadelphia on Friday even
ing, is not 30 striking document as the
Roman Catholic Pastoral Letter which has
Of late attracted the attention OF everybody
who is Interested In current religious discus
sion. 1t is more abstract and less positive
The Episcopal Pastoral Letter, however, deals
in its own way with many OF the same social
and religious questions which were treated
by the Roman Catholic Bishops.
1t opposes to modern infidelity "the fun
damental and all-includng truth as revealed
throughout the Scriptures" The basis OF
Christian theology, it truly argues Is reve-
lation, and destruction OF belief in the inspira-
ton and authority Of the Scriptures means
destruction Of faith in the incarnation and
divinity OF the CHRIST. The Church must
stand or fall with the Bible. "Our Anglican
fathers" says the Letter. "knew what they
did when they placed the Article OF the Suf-
tlciency OF tho Holy Scriptures for Salvation
next after the Article Of the Trinity"
or course, no direct reference is made to
the case OF the Rev. HEBER NEWTON of this
city, who has apparently accepted method
OF Biblical criticism which nulliles the
Church's teaching concerning inspiration,
revelation, and the authority OF the Scrip
lures. But the writer Of the Letter must
have had him in mind when he wrote these
words, and have intended them for him in
the way OF admonition:
Are you afraid Of the letter that killsthr There are
two ways of dealing with that One is to kill the letter
or tear 1t out-ths way of the savage The other to
seek the life within which took the letter for its body
the way Of the disciple reverent scrutiny Of docu.
mens and asearching criticism OF what IL human in
grammar, arithmetic, or version are part OF the
Churchs proper business and belong to her scholars
Hut Ia now seasOnsble time to mind the difference
between using scholarship lawfully and being used
those outlaw scholars who hunt after unnatural inter
pretations to sustain foregone conclusions"
The most important portion OF the Pas
toral next after this discussion OF the neces-
sity OF maintaining the authority of tho
Scriptures as the revealed word OF Cop, Is
| that wherein 1t is proclaimed that the Church
| opens its doors to all men "havng already
| evangelic TRUTH" and will not impede their
| admittAnce by insisting on non-essentials.
"we are to labor, reap, and gather for Him.
1t significantly says. with tools not cast
after any stereotyped pattern" ITO take
men and things as they are. in order to make
them what they ought to be-" 1t further re-
marks, "is the craftsmanship OF common
sense" And the Church will be governed by
that common sense "if In the hopeful pos
sibilities OF these eventful days, any serious
society OF our fellow men anywhere, having
already evangelic truth. should ask Of us the
blessing OF apostolic order"
What does this meanY Does 1t mean that
the Episcopal Church is expecting some one

The Decay of Congrcgati0nalism.

The flftieth annual session OF the Congre-
gational Association OF New York, the other
day, can hardly have been as cheerful a
meeting as its members would have wished.
There Were few amiable enthusiasts pres
ent who took an optimistic view OF the pros
poets OF Congregationalism in New York, but
they did not seem to be very confident, while
some Of their brethren, on the other hand,
took a very gloomy view, and were very de-
c!ded in their gloom.
II the statistics given by the Rev. JOHN
CUNNINGHAM are correct, the prospects OF
Congresationalism in this State are not
bright. According to him, the GOO Congrega-
tional churches which formerly existed in
New York have dwindled to 2CO. In this city
the denomination Is on its last legs, IL we
may believe the Rev. BENJAMIN STAUNToN
"The Congregational Church." he told the
Association. ''is corpse in New York city
There Is not breath or shadow Of it along
the east side OF the city, and scarcely more
in the cities along the Hudson River"
In view of these statements by members OF
the Association, 1t is no wonder that the Rev.
DR.. BULLOCK said, not without sarcastic In
tention, perhaps, but still truly enough, that
"a memorial should bo prepared showing
that the Congregational Church is dying"
1t is undoubtedly dying even in New Eng
land, where it was once the prevailing
Church. The most popular and distinguished
of the younger generation OF New England
Congregational pastors have strayed far
away from the doctrines OF the Cambridge
and the Saybrook platforms. They nre really
liberals, believing with the Unitarians in the
efficacy OF good works. They pay little at
tention to that doctrnal preaching which
was the feature Of the old New England CAL
vinism, and they openly dlsavow or secret
ly reject many of the essential doctrines. The
works OF JONATHAN EDWARDS, il they ever
took the trouble to read them would fill
