Richmond, Va, Wednesday. Sept. Is.
Central Presbyterian for 1886.

We ask our present subscribers, our
agents, and the ministers in the churches
to aid us in extending the circulation
of the Central Presbyterian. We do
not ask any one to take the trouble of
introducing the Central Presbyterian
without compensation, and make the
following proposals:
l. Any subscriber who will, with his
own subscription, send the name of a
new subscriber, shall have the paper
sent to the two for 81.
2. We will allow commission of ST.
for every new subscriber obtained who
pays in advance.
There are hundreds of subscribers
who can, each, easily obtain one or two
new subscribers (some can obtain many
more), and we ask them to make the
fort.
The Central Presbyterian aims
l. To be faitl full representative of orthodox,
evangelical Christianity and of the principles
Of the Presbyterian Church.
2 1t aims to keep fully abreast of the learn
ing and Investigations of the day, while uncom-
promisingly opposing the heterodox teachings so
rife at this time.
8. 1t notices fully every great question that
touches the intere,t of the Church, or affects
Christianity.
4. Its readers will have the best opportunity
OF seeing the Christian view of these. questions.
5. 1t allows and invites free discussion, but
only in the bounds of Christian courtesy.
6. 1t gives full summary of religious news
from every Presbytery in our Church, and con-
tains also carefully prepared summary of re.
ligious news from every part of the world.
2. 1t gives choice religious reading, carefully
prepared or selected, for the family and for the
children,
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1886-09-15

WE are sure that our readers will
agree with us that, in response to DIR.
Thompson's appeal, the Presbyterians
all over the country ought to unite in
rebuilding the church which has been
destroyed at Charleston. 1t should be
remembered that the people of the
congregation have lost their own
houses as we'll as their house OF wor.
ship. 1t is this sad fact that makes
the call for aid from abroad so urgent
and imperative.
They have our most heartfelt sym
pathies-let us all come to their aid.

DARKNESS.

We can imagine planet inhabited
by races Of beings who all lacked the
faculty of vision, the lower as we'll as
the higher forms of animal life. They
might possess to an unusual degree the
other senses-especially hearing, touch,
and smell, and Judging by what is &C
complished by the blind on our planet,
a very respectable order of things
might be developed, and perhaps GER
tain intellectual progress achieved,
which, however different it might be
in its practical devices and methods of
living from ours, is still conceivable.
We have known blind man who was
one of the leading business men in the
country neighborhood where he lived
(and still lives). This man is a mer.
chant and farmer, and really acts very
much like other people except that he
has a great deal more sense than most
of his neighbors, and is more success.

life, we think, as Bible agent. He

garded as a dangerous antagonist in a
horse trade will give his opinion of a
field of wheat or corn estimates the
weight of a rick of hay; shows perfect
familiarity with the books in his count
ing.rOOm, and talks most intelligently
on all current topics
We know how wonderfully the other
senses can be developed when one is
lost, and we know the capabilities of
the sense of smell in the lower animals.
1t is perfectly conceivable, therefore,
that there might be a race of men
without eyes, who might possess at the
same time a considerable measure of
intelligence. But they are Htnd the
world as we know it is to them "a sealed

of excepting the strange impressions
which might be conveyed in some in

But if they were all blind, and had
Teen all born blind, it would be diff

Of some one who had eyes and should
undertake to discourse TO them of the
world Of vision, and Of the beauties Of
nature and art. A few, perhaps, might
be won over to listen to the strange

tation, if the visitor brought credentials
which commanded their confidence.

The London Baptist says: upon
no less an authority than well.known
High-church publishing house we are
able to state that the sermons of Mr..
Sturgeon command a larger sale
amongst the Ritualistic clergy than
even those Of any notable church
preacher. These men have a keen
scent for what takes;' they are a lit
tie like the boy with the pudding-eat
and grumble 1t is now stated that a
prominent cleric of the Establishment
lately published volume of sermons
in which he has coolly included ger
battm one Of the finest discourses Of DR..
Alexander Maclaren, of Manchester.
When asked by the publishers of DIR.
Maclaren's volumes to explain, he says,
he is in the habit of preaching other
mems sermons which he admires, those
of the Baptist divine of Manchester be
ing especial favorites with him, and
that one of his curates, to whom the
compilation of his volume was entrust-
ed, has accidentally included one of DIR.
Maclaren's which was in the bundle of
manuscript given to the curate."
