execute q contract of this nature THAI we

Herald to print the paper, but in the

pointing to Bishop Marty and Father
Hopkins and We do not blame them for
feeling indignant aud inclined to go
elsewhere. Had the Press and Da-

would have been promptly and satisiac-

Yankton, OAK, January Let. 1889.
The Ri. Rev. Bishop Marty announces
to the public with very great regret that
circumstances beyond his control have
for the present prevented the publica-
ton of the new weekly journal 1.-The
Dakota Catholic" A contracs had been
made with o local printing office for
publishing the paper, and the editors
copy for the first number, to be issued
this week, had FOR some time been in the
hands OF the printers, when, most unex.
peotedly, it was announced yesterday
that the cffise could not carry out the
agreement made in this matter. Under
these annoying circumstances nothing
can be done but TO seek elsewhere such,
facilities for publication as seem to be
unattainable in Yankton with due re-
gard to business economy. The weekly
Will be issued as soon as suitable az
Eangements can be made.

WHAT WILL He DO?

The Christian World, of London, in
it's issue of February 21st, made in
prominent type the following state.
ment in regard to DR.. Parker, of the
City Temple, the celebrated sensational
Congregational preacher. He wants
(said this journal, which reflects his
views):
First-The total abolition of all tests of Or
thodoxy, of all written creeds standards, and cat
echisms as largely responsible for the in6dehty
and hypocrisy of the world.
Second-The entire secession of the Low
Church Evangelical party from church whose
creed is neither Evangelical nor Protestant,
when dramatically and historically interpreted.
Conscience cannot healthily live upon paren.
thesis footnotes or scholastic CLOSES.
A correspondent of the ~ Y. Herald
cables to that paper, that on seeing this
announcement, he determined to ascer-
tain the character Of the trust deed
under which the City Temple is held.
1t appears that this congregation wor
shipped formerly in a chapel, in the
Poultry, Cheapside, which was built in
1917, and put in trust in 1922 " for that
body of Protestant dissenters called
CdlvintStic Independents" But shortly
after the Inauguration of DIR. Parker's
ministry, in 1872, the Poultry chapel
was sold under the authority of the
Charity Commissioners for 100000,
and with the proceeds, or some portion
thereof, the City Temple was built.
On examining the trust deed, which
is recorded in the Record Office, it APP
pears that it contains the following
provision:
The trustees are to permit to oficiate such
person or persons of such denomination of Pro-
testant disseners who shall be of the Calvinistic
persuasion, and shall hold the religious tenets
contained in the Assembly's catechism, and in
the Confession of Faith drawn up by the West
minister Assembly of Divines in 1647
Now, then, DR.. Parker seems to be
in dilemma-this is, if people nova
days are bothered by such things. He
wishes to abolish all tests of ortho
doxy, all written creeds, catechisms,
&C., and it is we'll known that he is far
from " othodox himself On the con-
trary, his views are somewhat similar,
we Judge, to those of the late Henry
Ward Beecher. But, then, Beecher's
hands were not tied. Now, what will
DR.. Parker do?

The TRIAL of tho Rev. DR.. Edward
King, Bishop of Lincoln, is a matter
of considerable interest in England.
1t was through the efforts of church
organisation that the Archbishop OF
Canterbury, who was in sympathy
with him, was compelled to try the
issues involved. Both of them, it seems,
are Ritualists, and as Bishop of Truro,
the Archbishop himself formerly prac-
tised ritualistic observances. The Bish-
OPP of Lincoln, we learn from the Chris
tan Union, is man of great learning
and singularly pure and noble charac-
ter. That paper observes:
The case can hardly fail to be
decisive in its outcome on the English
Church. If the Bishop of Lincoln is
condemned, it is difficult to see how the
ritualists can remain in the Church.
1t would seem as if q secession would
be inevitable in that event. The feel
ing in England, however, seems to be
that the condemnation of DR.. King
would probably hasten disestablish.
ment rather than involve a division of
the Church."

The services at the Old Market Hall
were conducted last Sunday night by
Rev. l.. B. Turnbull, who will here
after take charge of the work at this
place, which has, for several years,
been prosecuted with eminent success
by DR.. Hoge. Mr.. Turnbull is an
enthusiastic worker, his sermons are
able, popular, and impressive, and he is
in full sympathy with the work upon
which he enters.
We do not understand that Dr. Hoge
is TO be entirely associated from the
Old Market mission. He will doubt
less give it such aid as his other oner.

More Light

In commenting week or two ago upon
paragraph which had appeared in the Central
Presbyterian we said:
In returning to Richmond from Danville
in 1865, soon after the surrender at Appomattox
Courthouse, we conversed with gentleman on
the train between Burkeville and Petersburg
who told us that he consoled himself for the
death of the Confederacy by the reflection that
he had escaped an established church, which,
he said would have been one of the results of
successful secession"
This little paragraph has been circulated far
and wide, and has called forth much comment
the general tenor of which is that the gentle
man in question was totally mistaken and the
story incredible. Now comes Rev. Dr. Lafferty
of the Richmond Christian Advocate, and tells
us what here follows:
The late DR. John B. McFerrin, the South
ern Methodist publisher, who was familiar with
the military men of the South for he had ad-
mission into the tent of general as we'll as pri-
vate told Us that a State church was the purpose
Of the leaders, at least in the army Of Georgia
He rected certain acts and ressonIngs brought
to his attention. He, as we have before said in
print expressed milder regret on that account
for the collapse of the Confederacy. In fact, he
related how church was built during the war
in certain city out Of government lumber
and by use Of government carpenters"
This is becoming interesting-d decidedly. It
does seem incredible that any sane man should
ever have seriously apprehended the erection of
an established church in the Confederate States ;
and yet DR.. McFerrin's story, told in Tennessee,
and our travelling companions story, told in
Virginia, must have had some foundation.
Richmond Dispatch Of March 1st
We entirely agree with our friend
ait does seem incredible that any sane
man should ever have seriously ap.
pretended the erection of an estab-
lished church in the Confederacy"-
and we would add that no sane man
ever did. And we were surprised at
the DiSpatch'S referring to such story
We're the Baptists going to submit tc
an Established Bpisoopacy2 Or the
Presbyterians to an established Baptist
church or the Methodists going t.
allow themselves to be left out in the
cold We rather think not.

MORE ABOUT THE HITTTTES.

MORE ABOOI lille UTILITIES.
The London Times gives us the fol-
lowing interesting paragraph on this
subject:
&c In lecturing at the British Museum
the other afternoon on the nationality
of the Hittite people, Mr. Tyler referred
to their great interest in relation to
Biblical history. From the Hittite
monuments we were likely to gain
most important information concerning
the pre-Israelitish religion and the
jewellers in Canaan before the conquest.
The Hittites and the Amorites APP
peared in the Old Testament in close
combination, and though the subject of
the Amorites was still involved in
much obscurity, it was not improbable
that still closely allied with the Hit
tites, they extended much more widely
than had been usually supposed. Re-
ferring to sculptured slabs recently
brought to light at Aintab, the lecturer
said that the different race peculiari-
ties which were depicted, presented
a curious anthropological problem.
Though the different races must be re-
garded as all included under the term
& Hittites,' yet there were persons
obviously of different stocks. The
physically inferior, moreover, seemed
to be dominant.
Both in the Egyptian painting of
Abu-simbel and on the Hittite monu-
ments, the superior people wore the
pig-taiI, and were probably of Mongol
extraction. But in a curious scene
sculptured at Eyuk, pig tailed per
sonage mounting ladder appeared as
a dwarf, compared with gigantic re-
preventative of another race depicted
close by. The pig-tailed Hittites also
did not, it appeared, wear the boots
with turnedup toes, the so,called
" Hittite boots" but were shod, as was
clear on the Aintab monument, with
sandals. This seemed to indicate their
having come from warm country.
Here again was curious problem. An
important particular of Biblical illus
tration was derived from the evidence
given, especially on the Carchemish
monuments, as to the worship of the
dSherdh This word had been retained
by the revisers, though in the author.
ised version of the Old Testament it
was usually translated by grove
The aSherdh had long been regarded by
scholars of distinction as pillar, and
on the monuments the straight pillar
was to be seen in combination with a
crescent moon. This might remind us
of the close association in the Old
Testament of dSherdh and AShtoreth,
the latter being moon goddess. Such
goddess, too, was the goddess of the
great temple at Hierapolis, near Car
chemish, before which stood two
aSherahS of prodigious height, accord
ing to Lucian's account. A sudden
and complete solution of the Hittite
problem was unlikely. The conditions
to be satisfied were too complicated for
this. The concluding lecture next
Friday is to be on The Hittite In
scriptions.'"
