THE Rev. William M. Barbour, DID,

The Rev. William M. Barbour, DID,,
Chittenden Professor of Divinity, and
pastor in Yale College, has rendered his
resignation. 1t will take effect in June,
at which time the doctor will have served
Yale as preacher ten years. The students
are not at all pleased with DR.. Barbour's
preaching. and of late it has been the
source of much complaint in the various
college papers. This is only another evil
dence Of the working Of the leaven of
liberal opinion in influential quarters.
The Yale boys are more in sympathy with
progressive orthodoxy" and its New
Haven exponent, DR.. Newman Smyth,
than with the regular college pastor and
his old .fas hioned orthodoxy.

= SEVERAL of the Chicago pastors
preached on Sunday in regard to the
opera, and the very questionable intro
duction of the ballet as an attachment
thereof. Among tho number who thus
freed their minds was Rev. Charles Conk-
lin, of the Church of the Redeemer, who,
in a vigorous sermon on "Music and
Morals" remarked that music, which was
heavenly thing, must be kept free from
debasing parasites. "If," said he, the
dramatic and musical arts are to be kept
from self. pollution and certain Danish
ment from the experience of Christian
people, let them be preserved in their
purity. Music then will ever be civil
izing, an uplifting, a refining influence in
all the years that are to come"

Miss CATHARINE LORILLARD WOLFE,
who is dy ing in New York, is noted for
b IT extensive charities; and also as being
probably the richest unmarried woman
in the United States. Her benefac-
tions have been widespread, and amount
to far more than $l,000,000. In one year
she has been known to give away over
$250000. To funds for schools and hos
pitfalls and mission work generally she has
contributed generously, beside making
large requests to church institutions in
the West. The loss of such "an elect
lady" will be severely felt all over the
country. Such an example in the wise use
of money is constant need.

THE Cincinnati saloon keepers re-

on Thursday, was declared constitutional.
There are over 5000 places in Cincinnati
where liquor is sold, and up to this time
they have avoided paying one cent OF tax

100000 into the treasury Of Hamilton

- SEVERAL inquiries have recently
reached this office in regard to the trust
worthiness of the publisher of Health
and Home, whose advertisement recently
appeared in THE UNIvERsALIsT, offering
a certain mum Der of books in connection
with subscriptions to his paper. In re-
ply we beg to say that DIR. Hale is rep
utable publisher of this city, and that
the books are pamphlet issues, in the
cheap library form, we'll worth the money
that is asked for them. We have assur-
ance from DIR. Hale that orders are filled
with all possible dispatch, after allowing
time for transmission to Philadelphia,
whence the pamphlets are ordered.

PETERS ASSURANCE.

In theological discussions, in sermons and
otherwise, the forwardness of the apostle.
Simon Peter, is often alluded to as being to
his discredit. If any question is asked by
the Master, Peter, it is said, is always ready
to answer, while the other apostles are gen.
orally silent. And we have never seen any
reason for this, but Peters impertinence.
But this is not correct view of the subject.
The apostles were committee of twelve"
and Peter was chairman. All questions
put to this body it was bis business to an
swer; and we do not find that the other apos-
ties ever complained of his forwardness. In
some instances, it is expressly said that they
agreed with him. For example, when Pete
said he would sooner die than deny his Lord,
it is added, Gas SO said they ALL" Nor is
there any evidence of disagreement, when
the agreement is not directly asserted.

LONDON, May 1s.-Gladstone, in the
Commons this afternoon moved that
the House devote four nights out of five
given to Parliamentary business, every
week. TO debate on the home rule bill.
The Premier's proposal produced SEN
sation. as it had come TO be generally
believed, without any clearly defined
reason why, that the government bad
about given up the hope OF carrying
their measure, and would bring on the
crisis as early as possible. An excited
discussion at once followed Gladstone's
motion. During this both sides to the
controversy revealed their position.
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach (Conserva-
tive) said his party wanted a pledge
that the debate would be finished Fri
day next. To this Gladstone answered
that his reckoning extended the debate
far beyond the date fixed by the oppo
sition. After a long and warm discus
sion, Gladstone's motion was carried.

Dynamite Explosions

ORsSGEvILLE, Ontario, May lS.-Two
dynamite explosions occurred here last
night, one at the Office, and another at
the residence Of Police Magistrate Mon
roe. The Office is completely WRECKED
and adjoining property somewhat
damaged. The house was badly damaged
but no lives lost. The indignation OF
the citizens is very great, as this Is the
third and most destructive explosion
since the initiation of the Scott act.
The cause Of the outrage is the action
OF Magistrate Monroe in strictly en-
forcing the temperance law. Although
large rewards have been offered for
information regarding the preparation
of the first two explosions. no one has
been arrested in connection with the
crimes.

AN ODD VIEW.
What Dumas Would Have Done With the
Ducats of the Dead Vanderbilt.

What Dumas Would Have Done With the
Ducats of the Dead Vanderbilt.
Hard it is, indeed. to see how Mr..
Vanderbilt was the better for his
money. Perhaps he had 40,000,00O
pounds, there or thereabouts. What
can man do with forty millions? He
can do nothing, unless he has the i'm
agination of Dumas or the tastes of
Beckford. Mr.. Beckford collected a
truly delightful and marvellous library
of books. Mr.. Vanderbilt did nothing
of the sort. He had no particular crav-
ing for rare editions, and the master
pieces of Duseuil and LIE Gascon Du-
mas, again, would have run through
the money like a man. He would have
presented Italy to the Italians and
Rome to Victor Emmanuel. Perhaps
he would have annexed India; very
probably, at least, he would have made
the attempt, He would have carried
Duchesses captive, and his dramas
would have been magnificently per-
formed in Timbucto. He would have
cut a canal through the Isthmus of
Corinth; he would have carved Mount
Athos into statue of Athos, Comte dc
la Fere. He would have seen to it that
flying became practical art, and
Frances navies would have pounced
from the central blue on Birmingham
and carried off the Liberal Seven to
chains and slavery. Dumas would
have released convicts and imprisoned
Princes. He would have fitted up in
palatial style as many caves as Shelley
ever dreamed of, and would have filled
them with the most magnificent and
most magnanimous brigands, many of
them cardinals in disguise. 0, grea.

poor child, suffering as she was she
seemed to be thinking of everybody
but herself-to be patient and good
natured, and not to mind if he did suf-
fer good deal, and he would see her
again before long.
sit is enough to make one want to
die just to see the dear child again.
But never mind, children, shall be
be with you soon" As she said this
she looked steadily upward and spoke
in confidential tone, as If she saw
those dear ones on the very border of
the spiritual world, waiting impatient
ly for her to join them.
During this simple talk of the loving
old woman, if there was a dry eve in
that a-minute-before careless, jovial
crowd, mine were so blinded that l
could not see it, and felt convinced,
more than should have been by vol
umes of panegyrics, that from that
dusty room more than twenty years
ago an angel had taken her homeward
fight, and that she had since been per-
mitted occasionally to fit across Old
Paul's degraded soul, if, perchance,
she might vet win him from the error
of his ways.
But how, thought I, could such an
one grow up under such circumstances
and with such surroundings? How?
Why, in the same way the most beauti-
full flower can grow and shed its fra
GRANGE under the cold droppings of the
glacier.
The Divine goodness is so prodigal-
no, not prodigal, but profuse-in the
bestowal of its gifts that, as there is no
place in nature without its beauty, SO
there is none so morally waste and
desolate that it does not produce some
flower of Paradise; there is no thick
mantling pool of depravity so stag
mating that its waters are not some
times stirred by the rustling of an an
gels wings.-Henry Z. Niles, in Toledo
