AN ESTEEMED BROTHER, whose praise
is in all the churches, writes to us ex-
pressing the opinion that our readers
have had quite enough, pro and con, on
the question Of the training of candi-
dates for the ministry. We would say
in reply that we think ourselves the
subject has been pretty thoroughly
(and ably) ventilated, and we shall bring
the discussion to a close in our columns
very soon. We have something on
hand which, in order to give both sides
full hearing, fairness seems to require
us to publish. This, in our opinion,
is enough for the present.
We regard it as an exceedingly i'm
portant subject, and do not think that
we have given too much space to it.
But all these discussions must stop at a
certain point. They are not the topics,
as our correspondent suggests, which
interest the general reader or specially
tend to the edifcation of the great BODY
Of our subscribers.

tory anterior to about 200 BIC. No two cal.
culations made of Scripture chronology agree
they disagree to the extent OF $500 years One
that was quite as carefully considered as the
Usher chronology gives the time between the
creation and the birth of Christ at nearly 1000
years it may have been seventeen thousand
or any other given number greater or less
There is no basis for attacking any ones ideas of
the antiquity of man in the Holy Scriptures
The dates which appear in our editions of the
Scriptures are misleading in two ways: they
mislead as TO the truth in some instances and
they mislead the great mass of readers into the
belief that they are authoritative. The result
Is that the Scriptures bear the blame of human
errors. 1t is our duty to carefully distinguish
between the truth taught in Scripture. and the
talhble human differences made from misappre.
hendlng that teaching
Now it is very true that "no dates"
are given in the Scripture; but there
are data; there are tables giving ten
generations between Noah and Abra-
ham. Moreover, it is stated that MIN
rod was the son of Cush, and that Cush
was the son of Noah; and that Nimrod
was the first king of Babel, and that
he or Asshur, the son Of Shem1 builded
Nineveh. Now, the above from the
Interior is no answer to these state
ments. The Interior says, there may
have been 1000" years, or aRy other
giUeR number, between the creation and
the birth of Christ Then, perhaps
Professor Wallace is right in putting it
at 100000 years for the age of the hui
man relics found in Kent's Cavern
There are ten generations in the Bible
between Adam and Noah, and there
are ten between Noah and Abraham.
and it is very easy to see how Usher
got about 400 years between the date
of the Flood and the birth of Abraham.
as the age Of the father at the birth of
his son is given in the table.
The Septuagint chronology is so
plainly systematic corruption of the
figures of the Hebrew text that the H.
terror cannot be excused for having re-
ferred to it Git is the basis of the long
Scriptural chronology. The "sub-
scriber" who was troubled in mind and
wrote to the Interior for light will find
it difficult, we Judge, to believe that
fifteen or twenty, or even five hundred,
thousand years elapsed between Adam
and Abraham, when the book of Gen
esis gives only twenty generations for
that interval The Interior must pick
its flint and try again. We have not
forgotten the Interiors review of Win
chells Preadamite Man" Now we
by no means defend the accuracy OF
the chronology of Usher; all that we
contend for is, that it is not very wide
of the mark.

from the absorbing cares and distract

THE ~. Y. Evangelist has the follow
ing gratifying news "The reports from
the churches begin to indicate quite
general prevalence of religious interest,
and in some places revivals of marked
power are occurring. AS usual, there
is diversity of operation, but the same
spirit. That is to say, in some places
pastors are being aided by evangelists,
and in others not. Here for instance
is DIR. Klttredge, of Chicago, whose
great congregation might well entitle
him to assistance did he crave it, in adj
dition to the aid ordinarily rendered
by his own people, official and unoffi-
cial, keeping right on in the ordinary
routine, and yet with blessed results.
On the first Sunday of the month sixty
five members were received, thirty
three Of whom confessed Christ for the
first time. OF these sixteen were men !;
thirteen were heads of families; and
there were three husbands with their
wives. In some places the work is
chiefly among the young, but elsewhere,
as in this instance, well distributed, the
mature and thoughtful coming forward.
What is peculiar and exceptional in the
Chicago Third church, however, is that
this result has come without one extra
meeting"
