TRIBUNE LpI,L oa'Esv,rroS,
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1886-06-09
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:
1. 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 81
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
effort.
The Central Presbyterian aims
1. To be faithful representative of orthodox,
evangelical Christianity, and of the principles
of the Presbyterian Church.
3 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.
3. 1t notices fully every great question that
touches the interest 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-
taiHs also carefully prepared summary of re
Hgious news from every part of the world.
Z. 1t gives choice religious reading, carefully
prepared or selected, for the family and for the
children.

HUNTING A MINISTER'S FAULTs.-Mr.
Sturgeon, says the Presbyterian, puts
into the mouth of "John Ploughman"
the following homely bit of wisdom,
which we commend to any reader that
may have magnified his pastors i'm
projections 81 never knew q good
horse that had not some odd habit or
other, and never saw minister worth
his salt who had not some crotchet or
oddity. Now these are bits of cheese
that cavaliers smell out and nibble at !;
the first is too fiowery and the second
is too dull. Dear me, if all Gods crea-
lures were judged in this way we
should wiring the doves neck for being
too tame, shoot the robins for eating
spiders, kill the crows for swinging
their tails, and the hens tor not giving
us milk. When a man wants to beat
q dog, he can soon find stick, and at
this rate any fool may have something
to say against the best minister in Eng
land"
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1886-06-09

A METHODIST paper, says the Chris
ttan at Work, gives the following, which
is not without several grains of sug-
gestion: "Our church festival is over.
The treasury has $50 10 net gain-that
is, credit side. The debit shows an ap-
palling list of Misunderstanding; sew
eral cases of dyspepsia aggravated by
late suppers eaten on the supposition
that church suppers are not injurious /;
thin attendance at prayer meeting
the evening following; spirit of exul-
tation because we cleared S179 more
than our Baptist neighbors a spirit of
bitterness because some one said their
singing was better than ours"
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1886-06-09

In A LETTER dated Kischineff, March
10Th, published in the Je11tSh InteLLi-
gencer, Mr.. Joseph Rabinovitch writes +:
"The work which God has entrusted
to me here, in Russia, is progressing
exceedingly, SO that every Sunday our
house of prayer, where the sons of the
New Covenant regularly assemble, is
filed with Israelitish men and women,
who are thirsting for the gospel; and
we are quite sure that very soon, with
the help Of God, we shall receive from
the Government permission to baptize
those people in the house called Beth
lehem, in the name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost"

MR.. GEORGE MULLER's visit to Mel
bourne, says the Southern Cross of
March 10Th, is awakening great inter
est. Mr.. Muller himself is as wonder
full as his own orphan houses. He is
over eighty years of age; he has car
rled for the greater part of that time
what to most Christians would be an
almost crushing burden Of anxiety and
work. Mr.. Muller is now undertaking
labors that would tax most men in
their prime. Yet he shows no signs of
WEAKNESS or anxiety, and few traces of
age or infrmity. Mr.. Muller is wit
ness of what may be called the medici-
nal virtues of a cheerful faith

MIR. STURGEON has written an article
against Mr.. Gladstone's Home Rule
bill. He asks, "What has Ulster done
to be cast Off" And adds: "The whole
scheme is full of dangers and absurdi-
ties, as if conceived by mailman. Yet
[ am sure that Mr.. Gladstone believes
he is only doing justice and acting for
the good of all. l consider that he is
making one of those mistakes only
made by great and well meaning men"
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1886-06-09

THE REV. Mr.. ADAMS, a missionary
in Chicago among the Bohemians
writes to the CongregdtiOnaItst (Bos-
ton) as follows: every conversation
with Bohemians develops new proof Of
their ignorance of all that is distinctive
of our American civilisation. Expla-
nation seems powerless to dispel this
ignorance. 1 have been told in perfect
soberness that our physicians seize per.
sons ON the streets, break their limbs
or MAIN them in some other way, SO
as to experiment upon them in the hos
pital. Not few of them believe that
our evening prayer meetings are sim
ply schools of immortality and vice."
