Down went the cup, right end up with

The following are IA few isms which
the Baltimore Episcopal Methodist
nublishes for the benefit OF readers
not versed in the conflicting beliefs of
the day.
Atheism.-A disbelief in the exis-
tence of God.
Deism.-A belief in the existence of
God, but denial of revealed religion.
A deist is, therefore, an inidel. He
often declares his belief in natural re-
hgicn-that is what n,an may discover
by reason alone. Deism aud ratioDal-
ism are twins.
Pantheism.-A belief that the uni
verse is Cod Spinoza was Pantte-
list and so was Hegel, a recent Ger
man philosopher.
Polytheism-A belief i'll the exis-
tence of many Gods.
Uuitaranism.-A bolief i'll the unity
of God, as opposed to the orthodox be-
lief of a trinity in unity.
Materialsm.-A belief that there is
nothing but matter in the universe.
What we call mind and soul are to
Materialists only properties of matter.
Of course, Materialists deny immor-
tality to man.-Death is annihilation
of existence.
Spiritualism.-The opposite of Ma
terlalism; originally was belief that
all matter is really spirit, and that,
therefore, the universe is only Gods
concentrated thought. Latterly it
means those who believe in the inter
course with the spirit world.
Fatalism.-A belief that all events
necessarily happen-that is, are or.
dalned and cannot be altered.
Mohammedanism.-The doctrine ot
the Mussumans, who believe in the
unity of God, and that Mohammed was
his prophet. They are fatalists.
Calvanism-Ihe leading doctrines
are original sin, particular redemption
ehectual grace in regeneration ant
perseverance of the saints.
4 Arminianism.-It is very nearly thu
opposite Of Calvanism. Its belief
are: l, conditional election and repro

daI costume. 1t appears that
certain Princess, one of the loveliest
(and fastest) women of Northern
Venice, had the boldness to grace
the scene in the airy costume of
Russalka, or water-nymph: Very
tight fitting pink tricot, a few yards of
azure gauze picked out with water
lilies, and fan, And when the
princess approached with other ladies
to do homage to the Empress, that
august lady cast Il look of disgust
and Indignation on the fair Naiad,
then turned her back on her, and
whispered few words to the En-
peror, who was also visibly shocked.
A few minutes later the Grand Duke
Vladimir stalked up to the princess,
offered her his arm, and conducted
her to her carriage.

AN EDITORIAL PROTEST.

There are some among our many
would-be contributors to whom we
must really address few words of
remonstrance. We know they mean
we'll; but they have such an inju-
dicious-we might almost say, un-
feeling -way of giving effect to their
good intentions. Thus, the other day
we received lively and inspiriting
article, dealing with public convey
ances, both in their utilitarinn and
aesthetic aspects. 1t was clear and
bright; very much so. But how
could we insert it, when it contained
such damaging passage as the fol-
lowing "As we were comfortably
lounging on the knife board of a
Bayswater omnibus the other day,
we Thoughts VIC shelled some
shrimps with which we had come pro-
vided, and threw the heads and tails
at passers by-how little it is man
really needs to make him happy"
There our objection lies, not in the
doctrine, but the manner of its en-
forcement. The editor of this jour
nal does not ride on knife boards; he
does not go about with his pockets
full of shrimps; above all, he declines
to have it represented editorially that
it is his custom to pelt the public
with the di.jectn mem6ro Of those
maritime insects. Another talented
writer's equally obliyious of etiquette,
but in another way. He dares to re-
present us as giving way to human
weakness in Epping Forest. "Leav-
ing Chingford behind, and plunging
into the wood, with face turned to-
wards High Beech, we chance upon a
maiden fair, gathering wild flowers,
herself the widest Of them all. We

Mark Twain was then lecturing, or
abont to lecture, on Riding the
Mustang" Trollope began to talk
riding with the soup, and en-
deavoured hard to draw the great
humourist out and get the advantage
of his long experience with the mus
tang IN the far West. But Mark
was silent aud very evasi, e, He es-
sayed once or twice to talk about
Jerusalem and even made some faint
illusions to the Old Masters; he went
off eloquently on the weather two or
three times. But he left the dis
cussion of the question entirely to
Trollope and myself, greatly to the
disappointment of the former. AZ

suddenly under lamp-post, and

way.

didn't you help me out Of that boss

DWELL, now, didn't you see me try

pulled out of his pocket short doz-
Ell of little bits of board, "see

"What?" said 1, "don't you
know how to ride?"
Never was on a horse before,
and never will be again. But, you
see, as l am lecturing on how to ride
mustang, thought l ought to
know something about horses. But
l know enough"

much the same reason, we have just

have not the slightest recollection of
anything dating back so far as the
battle in question, which indeed, we
have come to regard as rather myth

whether it was ever fought, and we
