needle. We assume that il will behave as
other needles have behaved. Commerce, then,
is rendered possible by faith. 1t is a great
jump from knowing that nature has been uni

deal Of what we know as science, is only
faith, that has leaned so long as TO have he
come oblivious Of its supports.
We 10 not understand God, soul, and INN or
tality, any better than they were understood
five hundred years ago, and it works rather to
the detrimental religion II it is supposed that
nature has been having its mysteries cleared
up during that time. In science men keep
making discoveries but l do not understand
that We are any nearer explaining things,
getting to the end Of things, than we were
when Thales pondered and Aristotle explored.

find how much unsupported room there is for
new horizons outside Of our own. The same

and years back to the beginning, now it is as
many nillion. The doctrine Of evolution,
whether sound or false, las not explained our
origin, only postponed it. Science has not
solved difficulties, only shifted the points Of
difficulty.
Much Of scientific discovery is only general
ization Of difficulty, as when Newton made
gravity cover the phenomena Of the sky as
well as Of the earth. We do not dissolve our
ignorance by designating the matters We are
ignorant Of, by a Latinized nomenclature.
Saying that the earth is sustained by gravity,

refined form, as what the ancients said when
they rested the earth on an elephant, and the
elephant on the back Of a tortoise. | confess

THE ESSEX CENTENNIAL.

The town of Essex celebrates its ccnton-
nial, with appropriate exercises, next week.
1t was in 1868 Con the 18th of july that the
town was chartered, the grant being made by
Governor Benning Wentworth of New
Hampshire but no settlement within the
town limits was made until twenty years
later. In 1888 Samuel and William Smith,
jonathan Winchell, Dubartis Willard and
David Hall made the first settlement, locat
ing themselves upon the banks of the WI
nooski, lust within the limits of the town.
The entire territory was then an unoroken
forest and marked trees formed the only
guide for the traveller or the pioLcer. But
the town, having many natural advantages,
grew with considerable rapidity, and in l7sG
it contained twenty-five families. This was
the number conditioned by the charter fot
the organization of the town; and according
ly freeman's meeting was held and the
town organized in the year named (idalcl
90, 1866. Most of the settlers came from
Connecticut (nainly from the town OF Sails
bury and Massachusetts, and one OF thell
first acts was TO levy a tax upon themselves
for the Support Of preaching;" and the first
church (lh- Congregational was organized IL
October, 1897. The first school was estab
lished as early as 1888. In 1888 severe
famine, which prevailed all over this par
of the country, contracted the bill of fare o.
the good PEOPLE Of Essex to unpleasant,
narrow dimensions and in 1912 and 1913 al
eJideniic carried off about two score people
With these exceptions the pioneers OF TIT
town seem to have had no unusual suffering
10 encounter or hardships to undergo ; ant
they prospered finely and the town grew
rapidly. In 1901 it had population OF 354
in 1900 more than double that number, o
729. Thenceforward the towns growth WA
of slower pace. In 1860 it had increased t.
l047 but for the succeeding twenty wears
like so many other Vermont towns, it re
manned almost stationary, the last govern
ment census giving the town only 2l11 PEG

The history of the town has not been al
eventful one. Its lot has been the peaceful

ReasOns for PrOnOuncing the Now
Deuteronomy n Forgery.

Deuteronomy a Forgery.
The Academy publishes searching criti-
c:sm by DR.. Neubauer on the Shapiro maui
script. lie takes his stand on the ground of
epigraphy, and comes to the CONCLUSION that
these fragments were forged by some per-
sons ignorant Of the results OF modern
criticism. DR.. Neubauer finds this text full
of uncassical idioms aud OF grammatical
blunders. Again, the claim TO antiquity is
negatived by the fact that some of the Ten
Commandments are ampliied paraphrases OF
the accepted versi II, whereas early texts are
invariably concise. The scribe, whoever hs
may have been, was apparently unable to
decide between Jehovah and Elohlm, as one
of the opening chapters begins, These he the
words which Moses spake according to the
mouth ofJehovah," the rest OF the chapter con-
tanning only Elohim. The account given by
Mr.. Shapiro in his letter to DIR. Ginsburg
as to the way IN which this manuscript came
| into his possession is certainly not calculated
to lull suspicion. lie says: ''1n about IL
| days ! got Qrom an Arab near AroerJ four
or five columns, with few PhGaiclan let
tiers visible upon them in eight days more
he brought me about 10 beautifully written
columns IN eight Gays more ABOUT 10 not 81
well written in II or IL days more four OF
five very well written columns aud l have
not seen the man again. The shelk died
soon, and ] lost every trace that would
enable me to follow The object further.
The death Of the sheik was unfortunate,
to say the least. DR.. Neubauers letter is
followed by u shorter communication from
Professor Sayce, who remarks that this man
uscript is written in Moabite characters 0ikt
those written on the famous Moable stone,
also discovered by Mr.. Shapiro, and which
has never been accepted as genuine by the
majority of archie ologlsts), and is, If authen
tic, q Moabite and not Hebrew book OF
Deuteronomy, yet the opening chapter con
tains the name of Jehovah in place Of Chem
osh. These fragments, moreover, are traced
on sheepskin, which could have lasted fol
5000 years in the damp climate of Palestine
only by Q miracle, and there is no evidence
to believe that this has teken place.
