An Australian Drought.

In February last, in New South Wales.
correspondent OF a provincial newspaper
travelled for some 200 miles by railway.
and throughout the whole Journey he saw
on either side nothing but desert-"a

state Of affairs was quite as bal in other
parts OF the country. Inere were thou
sands Of square miles of land baked and
cracked, with the dry, brown grass flying
off in dust, without vestige of green or
a drop of water anywhere" The expe-
dients resorted to in this terrible crisis
were sometimes Of a most desperate
character. Some farmers endeavored to
send their cattle down to the coasts or to
the towns, but they died on the road, and
their owners had to bear not only the
loss of the animals, but the cost of their
conveyance. This double loss largely
prevented others from initiating their ex-

to watch their ruin. One man lost 20
600, another $4,000 and the third l5O,-
600 sheep, without the slightest power to
save one of them Millions of sheep
have died, and hundreds, and probably
thousands, of colonists who were pros
porous last year are poor and, perhaps,
ruined to-day. Even in Sydney the
drought was 80 severe that the inhabi-
tants had to be placed on an intermittent
allowance of water. Rain has since
fallen, and, therefore, the severity Of the
crisis may be regarded as past.

Overture to the Synod of Georgia
from Atlanta Presbytery.

1t having become known through a
published Address, that has received the
endorsement of majority of the Board
of Directors of the Columbia Theological
Seminary, that the doctrine of Evolution,
as contained in that Address is, or will
be taught in that institution, which is
partly under your control, Atlanta Pres
bytery, for the following reasons earnest
ly overtures the Synod to express disap-
probation of such teaching, and to take
whatever steps may be necessary to pre-
vent it
l. Because Evolution is an improved,
scientific hypothesis.
2. Because, even in the form presented
in the Address, the doctrine brings upon
our Church much of the odium that at
taches to the doctrine in its worst forms
3. Because the Synod cannot afford to
make itself responsible for this doctrine
in any of its forms.
4. Because it is founded upofiea mode
of interpreting the Scriptures which tends
greatly to unsettle the confidence of our
people in the correctness of the Word OF
God and sets our theological students a
dangerous example in exegesis.
5. Because it will unnecessarily agitate
and damage our Church by an exciting
and protracted controversy.
6. Because it is contrary to the sense
in which our standards have always been
understood, and would make necessary a
restatement of some of our doctrines.
The ayes and noes were called, and "a
voted for the overture, and none against

Again, NdturG non fGcI sdltum is the device
of Darwinism and Haeckel Of course, out
Darwins Darwin. The modification of species
under external agencies, changed environment
and the laws of heredity, is slow and imper-
cephble, corresponding to the slow processes
geology. But If this be the origin of species
there ls no time for 1t according to astronomers
In hundred million years Darwinism will not
have accomplished tithe of its task And Mr.
Huxley. recognizing a difficulty here allows
that Nature does make bounds now and then"
This observes Mr.. Coke, with great composure,
Is disposing of objections by nearly dsposlng of
the doctrine itself Professor TAFT adds that the
sudden emergence of a new species from an old
would not differ much from that special crea-
tion which Darwinism was invented to super
sede. Certainly it brings it into close neghbor-
hood with its Contemporary RevielO
So Darwin says Mature does not
make leaps" But, Huxley says she does
now and then" And then Mr.. Coke,
the learned author OF "Creeds OF the
Day. comes in with the remark that this
admission OF Mr. Huxley nearly dis
poses of the doctrine itself" and Prof.
TAFT says that the sudden emergenoe"
of new species would not differ much
from a special creation" But if the
sudd 4" emergence of new species would
not offer much from special crea-
ton" how about the sudden emergence
OF a new genus or ne1o order-of man
from a monkey, for example ?-EDs CEN.

DISSERTATION OF THE Holy PLACE -
The Mohammedan Mosque Of Omar stands on
the foundation Of Solomon's temple to-day. A
traveller, who was in Jerusalem few years ago,
writes

it was full Of people, though these were not
worshipers, nor was it at either Of the usual
hours Of public prayers. Some Of the parties
were assembled to smoke, others to play at chess.
and some apparently to drive bargains Of trade,
but certainly none to pray. 1t was, indeed, a
living picture Of what we might believe the
temple at Jerusalem to have been, when those
who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and tho
changers Of money sitting there, were driven cul
by Jesus with scourge Of cords and their tables
overturned. 1t was, in short, place Of public
resort and thoroughfsre house Of merchandise,

days Of the Messiah
