of its rights. As for irsta .cs one
branch of the Church promui gates the
doctrine that from the foundation of the
world God elected certain portion of the
human family TO enjoy eternal felicity.
and another portion TO linger in eternal tor
ment Another branch Of the Church asserts
the doctrine to be monstrous, while it holds
fast to belief 10 eternal pains for some and
unfortunately for the majority OF those who
people the world. again others declare their
unbelief in such dogmss, and proclaim uni
versal salvation. The list Of such incongru-
tiles could be indefinitely extended, and
since the claim is set up that each is
founded upon divine authority, they
are fruitful of infidelity. as
they can not all be true, il too often occurs
that all are tabooed- and as a consequence,
unbelief takes possession of the minu and
infidelity receives additions to its ranks. The
triumphs of unbelief in the past are monu-
mental and take high rank among the choic-
est blessings advancing civilization has con-
ferred upon the world. 1t is said that IMAM
kind are divided by nature into believers
and unbelievers almost as distinctly as they
are into males and females" Hence it is
the propensity of some minds to doubt as it
is of Others TO have faith. Admit
the proposition, and a vast amount OF
the acrimony which exists in the world
disappears. To disbelieve, to question, to
investigate, is as certainly constitutional
trait as to believe and accept with child-like
confidence, whatever is asserted to be true or
false This constitutional trait is greatly APP
plauded in all matters except religion. The
moment the individual questions the truth
of religious dogma the Church assumes a
lofty air of infallibility, and the inquirer is
dubbed "infidel, - "hereticn ''skeptic," and
stigmatized as the enemy of mankind. Such
q course is neither just nor generous, and at
once develops an implacable spirit which in
tensiies rather than modifies the
determination to investigate. If it be ad-
mitted that investigation is proper at all, the
conclusion is inevitable that it Is nowhere
more fruitful of good than in the domain OF
religion. And as it can be shown that many
religious errors have fallen under the sturdy
blows of skepticism, the world is disposed to
be lenient in its judgments when unbelief is
on tlial.

The suicide committed by Senior Don
Francisco Bsrcs, the Spanish Minister Pleni-
potentiary to the United States, in the city
of New York, is, taken altogether, one of the
most remarkable instances of felo de Sc on
record. The only reason assigned for the
rash act is that Senior Barca was financially
embarrassed. He had lived beyond his
means, and, not having the courage to re-
duce expenses, concluded TO die like a fool.
In Washington the Spanish Minister enter
