Special May Be Made More General.
While the mission of the NEIaHBoR
is specially that of Peace versals War,
it is not Indifferent toward those in
terests to which other journals are
more or less specially devoted. But
as these seldom do more than incident
ally to speak in favor of peace and
against war, this editor feels cor
responding constraint to keep the
Christian doctrine of peace before the
people. If other journals, even tho
religious, manifested more interest in
peace-the burden of the gospel Of
Christ-and presented a more direct
and defined front against Wharf.-The
abomination of desolation"-then the
NEIGHBoR might give more attention
to matters of less Importance than
that of which the heavenly host sang
at the birth of the Savior-"Glory to
God in the highest, and on earth
peace and good will toward men"-
The highest glory to God in heaven
was the birth of Jesus. The greatest
good to men on earth was the peace
and good will which which Jesus came
to give the world, and which he did
give, and which he left in and with
the Church and the world. "Peace I
leave with you, my peace I give unto
you: not as the world giveth, give I
unto you"
Though itcould not be expected that
publications committed mainly to 9TH
er subjects should give much atten-
ton to the subject of peace, yet there
has been within the last twenty-five
years, a gratifying increase of atten-
ton given to the subject of peace by
many of the periodicals Of this and
other countries. This is true of the
secular press as well as of the re-
ligious. Let due credit be given to all
who speak peace. 1t matters little
who speaks or prints the truth, 30 it is
spoken and printed for the people to
hear and read. "Therefore, whether it
were or they, so we preach, and so
We believed" The worth of no print
ed page has ever been discounted.
among thinking people, because it con-
tanned paragraph or even a column
in favor of peace.

AN ORIENTAL LIAR.
That Is Rev. DIR. j. p. Newman's Sizing
Up of Rev. Wad-el-Wurd.

The Rev. John P Newman is a man of
national reputation and well-slocked
vocabulary. He acquired fame not only
as powerful preacher, but as the chaplain
and close friend of General Grant, with
whom he travelled abroad For a long
time the reverend gentleman filled the
pulpit of the Metropolitan Methodist
Church in Washington, and we are bound
to say he filled it well, so far at least as pull
pit oratory was concerned. General Grant
was regular attendant at DR.. Newman's
church during the period of his incum-
bency of the Presidential office.
Recently the Rev. Wad-el-Wurd, the
Orier talist, came to Los Angeles, and was
interviewed by the Times, which some
times embellisnes its columns with remin-
iscence and romance, as well as with facts
with light literature as well as solid
news. From that interview we reproduce
the following language used by the Rev.
Wad-el-Wurd, who acted as interpreter
and guide for General Grant in the Holy
Land
when on the Mount of Olives one of
his General Grant's) party reminded him
that he stood where once stood the Son of
God-the Redeemer of men--a melancholy
shade passed over his countenance. He
cast his eyes downward and, after dead
silence lasting several minutes, in a deep
voice he slowly said: l am not worthy to
stand on this ground Another pause en-
sued, when suddenly the General looked
up, and, in firm voice, in which | could
detect the tinge of command, he exclaimed:
Let US pray The prayer was made by
DIR. Newman, the General and all the party
kneeling."

Newman ?'

LONDON, February 13tb.-Picton, Home

pype, O'Brien and Gilhooly, which be
claimed constituted breach of privilege
The Speaker said Pyne and Gilhooly were
arrested on a criminal warrant. In this
case no breach of privilege was committed.
The arrest of O'Brien, however, was q
breach of privilege, and Matthews, the
Home Secretary, apologized for the unfor-
tungte occurrence.
Attorney General Webster denied that
any privilege existed. Explanations and
apologies had been given, and if they did
rot suffice, O'Brien could prosecute for
remedy elsewhere.
After considerable debate, in which Glad
stone and Parnell supported Picton's views,
Morly moved that the matter be referred
TO the Committee on Privileges. Referred.
