DR.. j G. Campbell, of Richmond, Va. said
that the death rate among the colOred pOpu-
latlon was so large to excite the
pity and commiseration of the whole

grces, he said, considering the circumstances
IN which they became freemen. had done re-
markably well and he was satisfied that in
the future the mOrtalitylamong them would be

THE VIRGINIA PLAGUE.
Secretary Mccormick, of Kentucky, read a
special report upon the peculiar cOntagiOn in
West Virginia. The report was made by Dr.
Carson. He reported that he went where the
disease was most prevalent in Eastern
kentucky and procured samples of
the drinking water. The geological
lOfmdJlO0 forbade the aSSUmDtIOn
of mineral poison in the water. The streams
ana ponds had dried down to mere beds of
malarial poison. The disease was really cpl
demic dysentery caused by malarial poison.
and many patients died because the people did
not believe in doctors and called them, if at ALL
too late. The total number of deaths did not
exceed 225 in Kentucky. The people were
deeply aggrieved by the publication of eXag-
gerated reports of the disease. Although
crops are not abundant, yet the people have
enough to support them until the next har-
vest.

FERRY PROMISES TO FIGHT.
The TOnquin Credit Accordingly Voted
without a Dissenting Voice.

PARIS, Dec. 1.-THE Senate to-day began
discussion of the Tonquin credits. Due de
Broglie took the leading part IN the debate.
He said that the government should be held
responsible for the increasing gravity of TIE
situation between France and China. He de-
clared that the members Of the Right would
refuse to vote credits. In his opinion pur-
suance of the colonial policy could only be
permitted to states which have an overlooking
surplus Of forces.
Prime Minister Ferry, replying to Due de
ernment to pursue policy Of moderation un-
til it proved unavailing, in which event he
pledged himself to energetic measures. "YOu
will soon see," he said, chow the government
intends to respond to the legitimate inipa-
thence of the country England's voluntary
mediation had proved abortive through the
attitude of China. Earl Granville had not
posals, because he considered them impossible
of acceptance by France.
TIME FOR ACTION.
The time for negotiations had expired.
The tim@ for action had arrived. NJ. Ferry
denied that France had isolated herself. She
was friendly, ne said, to all the powers. A
community of ideas existed between France
and the three great powers on the Egyptian
questions. France had entered the Berlin
conference with definite plans, well knOwiag
what she wanted. England's mediation
was an evidence of her continued
friendship with France. Admiral Pew
ron's latest dispatches from Admiral Courbet
and Gen. De PIsle's showed that the expedi-
ton was perfectly secure. M. Ferry explained
that the advance would begin as soon as the
credits were voted. The Senate voted the
credits with only one dissenting voice. The
Right abstained from voting.

UNIVERSAL EDUCATION DESIRED.

Much space is devoted to Christian educa-
ton and It's three great agencies-hOme,
church and school. The following are ex-
tracts from what is written upon this topic:
''Scarcly, if at all, secondary TO the church's
desire for the education of the clergy is her
solicitude for the education of the laity.
1t is not for themselves, but for the
people that the church wishes her clergy to
be learned, as it is not for themselves only,
but for the people that they are priests.
Popular education has always been the chief
object of the church's care. In fact, it is not
too much to say that the history of civilization
and education is the history of the church's
work. Few,l any, will deny that sound
civilization must depend upon sound popular
education. But education in order to be
sound and to produce beneficial results must
develop what IS best in man, and make him
not only clever, but good. True civiliza-
tion requires that not only the physical
and intellectual. but also the moral
and religious well being of people should be
promoted and at least with equal care. Take
away religion from people and morality
will soon follow. Morality gone. even their
physical condition will, ere long, degenerate
into corruption which breeds decrepItude.
while their intellectual attainments would
only serve as light to guide them to deeper
depths of vice and ruin. This has been so often
demonstrated in the history of the past, and
is, in fact so self-evident, that one is amazed
to find any difference of opinion about it.
NO CIVILIZATION WITHOUT RELIGION.
"a civilization without religion would be

the survival of the fittest, 4 in which cunning
and strength would become the substitutes

As matter of fact there never has been civ
ilization worthy of the name without religion
and from the facts Of history the laws of hu-
man nature can easily be inferred Hence

foster religion. Now. the three great educa-
tional agencies are the home. the church and
the school. These would mend and shane So
ciety. Therefore. each of them to do its
part well must foster religion. But many
unfortunately, while avowing that religion
hould be the light and atmosphere of the
homo and the church, are con-
tent to see ii excluded from
the school. and even advocate as the best

In the discharge of the duty of buying or
building it often becomes necessary TO con-
tract church debts. Where the multiplied
rapid, rapid work had to be done in erecting
churches and schools, and if under such cir
cumstances pastors had to wait till all the
generation would be left without the neces-
sary spiritual aids, and might be lost to the
church and to God. The council fully appre-
ciates the necessity of preventing a debt
