whenever new truths were brought 10

SPEAK IN MEErING,"


Statement That Can be Used and I'm
dcrstOOd.
At meeting Of tho Presbytery Of
New York the following resolution
wasadopted by vote OF 67 to Is.
WheroOs The general assembly has
asked this Presbytcry tho following
queetiOns;
First Do you desire n revision OF
= The confession OF hGith7
K Second--Lf no, in what respect and
% what eztentl Therefore be it
Pssootud, That this Presbytery nm
awer the first question in the afirma-
two, understanding the word reyis-
ION to be used broadly as compre-
bending any professional changes.
The second question was referred
10 committee OF forty to report to
special meeting Of the Prcsbytcry on
December Bird. The sentiment of tho
Prcsbytcry was not only overwhelm-
ingly in favor Of revision, but several
Of the members spoke fervontly in
denunoi,tion ofthc old confession OF
faith. An expression used by many
ot the sBeakers was that "tho Prosby-
terian church was in need Of doc
trinal statement which can be used
and which can DO understood"
Tho doctrine OF irrevoc0ble predes-
,tinationitnd infant dnmnation were
repudintsd. Many Of the spcGkors
doclaredthat the church needs new

To ono not bound by creeds and
whose reason is not circumscribed by
fixed articles Of faith the above sug-
gests some very interesting intorr,g-
ntories which may not be inappfopri-

nishing food for a little serious re-
fection.
lst. II the confession Of faith was
true when originally promulgated,
whit is the matter with it now, and
when did les truths become untrue7
I'd. II il was not originally true
how can our eminent doctors and di-
vines justify their past course in
preaching il to tho people and de-
nouncing as herstics and in6dols all
who dared to rejoct it7
Srd, II revision Of the confession
Of faith is now found necessary in or
der to make il conform to the greater
enlightenment and superior intelli-
gence Of more advanced ago than
that in which il was originally pro-
mulgated what assurance have our

Buffalo heavy-set, red-headed man
with a grip-sack. got into a dispute
with an engineer at the door of the
baggage-room. l did not hear the first

other.
''T'll try it soon enough! I'm going
to lay for you, old fellowr'
'.And I'll lay for you! Mind, now.
what L tell you! I'll do you up before
you are many years older!"
The train started and rushed along
for fifty or sixty miles, and then some-
thing gave way on the engine and we
came to stop. 1t was II o'clock at
night, and the brakeman who ran back
fell into ditch and broke his leg and

first men he saw was the engineer
whom he had quarreled with. They
looked at each other for few seconds,
and and then the traveller put his tumb
to his nose and sneeringly exclaimed:
"'Oh, you will do me up. will you!
Had nice little plan, didn't you, but
it didn't work! I expected you'd be
up to this and had the first berth at
the other end. Say! Don't you feel
rather fiat?''
