MEssRs EDITORs.-The ways Of the world
are sometimes disappointing, and we think
perverse. 1t will, and often does, happen that
our plans and hopes are lost to us. This has
been the experience during the ages. large

are in the habit of charging to Adam and his
| immediate successaFy, washing our own hands
pretty clean of guilt or blame, In the good
time coming, so anxiously hoped for, so long
| prayed for, and so slow in it's approach, many
of the evils and annoyances incident to hu
| man life will doubtless give way to better
things. While perhaps very definite OF

| Improvement. in the methods of human
achievement so far as relates to mutual we'll
fare. This may safely beinferred from philoso
ply and revelation. 1t may be long timf
to wait, but there is no better way, When
this period in human existence is reached
selfshness will be less dominant; sekinl
| anothers good will will not be wholly los
| sight of; selfish attention to the supplantinl
of Others will receive less attention, At tina
day no medium or understood Pope will eXer

There would be no risk in submitting to thei
decision the quality of act like the above
with the knowledge that the church who's
minister they were getting, had raised tn
salary in full for the coming year, and ever
member waiting for his return. In the goo
