Oelng harmed Dy the S0'CalIeQ CrueltleS or

ENpurgatiOn OF the Heart
is what is needed, not expurgation of the
holy oraclCs. You cannot make me believe
that book which at this moment lies on
the table of the purest and best men and
women. .of the age and a book that was the
dying solace of your kindred already passed
into the skies has taint in it that By
strongest microscope of honest criticism
could be made visible. | hurl back the IN
suit to my Bible. Ii men are uncoutroll-
able in their indignation when the integ-
rity of wife or child is assailed, and Judges
ard juries as far as possible excuse violence
under such circumstances. what ought TO
be the overpowering and long resounding
thunders Of condemnation for any
man who will stand in Chris
tian pulpit and assail the more
than virgin purity OF Inspiration, the we'll
beloved daughter of God? EIpurgate the
Bible. Better go to the picture galleries of
Venice and Rene and Dresden and re-
touch the old paintings. Perhaps you can
find foot in some figure of Michael Ange-
los Last Judgment that needs improve
ment Perhaps you might lengthen the
chin Of one OF Rembrandt's frees or put a
new crest on the waves of Turner's Slave
Ship or throw more pathos into Rubens
Descent from the Gross or improve the
color in Titian's Assumption. Or 60 into
a sculptor'S gallery and refashion some of
the limbs and change the posture OF the
statuary OF Phidias and Prexiteles,
Such IcoRoclasts
would soon find themselves in the peniteu-
tiary. But worse vandalism is that which
would attempt to re-touch those master
pieces OF inspiration or remodel the moral
giants OF this great gallery of God. Now,
let US divide off demand that all those
who do not believe the Bible cross over into
the ranks of the enemy. Take your posi-
ton behind the DEVILS guns Do not try
to mske compromise between intidelity
and Christianity. Out and out opposition
we prefer to these hybrid theologians, these
mongrel ecclesiastics, these half and half
evoluted pulpiteers who believe the Bible
end don't believe il, who accept the mir
acles and don't accept them, trimming on
one side to suit scepticism and trimming on
the other side TO suit their own
pride Of heart and who seem
TO think that in order to prove their cour.
age they must make the Bible target and
shoot at God. There is one thing that en-
me very much and that is that
the Lord made out to manage the universe
before they were born and perhaps may be
able to manage it little while after they
are dead. Long live the Bible. king OF
books! Hands off, We hypecritics, from

Only an Advertising Dodge.


A dispatch from Erie, Pa, stating that n
boy there had book which was worth 81 ,O00
because it contained the secret history of the
reign of George ~, entitled "The Memo irs
of King" and that the English govern
ment wished to destroy it, revives an old
story in this city, and recalls one of the
cleverest advertisement dodges ever resortod
to by bookseller. In the early part of 1875
the country was flooded with just such dis
patches ms the one recently sent from Erie,
1t was stated that book entitled "The Me-
moirs Of "a King" containing the account of
the licentious practices of George ", aud
proofs that an obscure man was entitled TO
the throne of Victoria, was eagerly sought
wished to destroy it. All the copies were
burned ave one, and that was Supposed to
be in America. OF course when the fact
became known all the old Libraries were
hunted over, and the accumulated dust Of
generations was disturbed in half the garrets
in the country looking for the book.
The first one who found it was Judge Fon-
taine I. Fox Of this city. The fact became
known, and in short time gentlemen of
this city was commissioned to buy the book
from Judge Fox. He was authorized to make
a large offer, which Judge Fox declined,
thinking he could probably get more money
by keeping the book. This fact was also
published. While the public were waiting
anNiously to sec what would next ensue, the
principal cities of the country were flooded
with pamphlet editions of the Memoirs, and
the people awoke to the fact that they had
been giving attention 60 shrewd advertisers.
The result of the Erie dispatch will be an
other edition Of the Rare Memoirs of George

A LIGHT commissioner specially investigated
the reports made of real and supposed smallpox
and finds the following facts concerning them ::
The colored woman taken TO the pest house
on Monday is, undoubtedly, infected with
smallpox, and it is equally clear that she was
infected by immediate contact with the de-
ceased woman Franks, who stayed in the same
house with her after she vacated her residence
on Alamo street, leaving the child sims there.
There seems to be reason to fear that other
cases may arise owing to absolute carelessness
She was removed from house ADJACENT 10 FORT
Allen. Her sister was employed near the
Mayors office, but has been discharged for1ear
that she might be contagious.
A man named John Goodridge, who is SAID 10
be an expressman having no permanent home,
was found i'll at the Buffalo camp yard, ana
was at first supposed TO have smallpox. he
was removed to a suitable dwelling, and II is
now found that he only suffers from measles.
The species of measles now prevalent is more
eruptfvc than usual and is similar to what gen
orally accompanies a smallpox epidemic. Inc
difference between it and smallpox in its early
stage cannot be detected, and il is only when
the disease is in an advanced state that
definite opinion can be formed.
Complaints are made in many parts OF the
city of the want of that prompt and judicous
action which distinguished the management OF
