CELEBRATED DIVINES.

Since the death of Henry Ward
Beecher there have been few men or
women disposed to dispute that the first
place among American pulpit orators is
occupied by Rev. DR.. Phillips Brooks.
of Boston Another clergyman has
thus described the eloquent and famous
rector: phillips Brooks" he says, ''is
physically well endowed. Tall and we'll
proportioned, head and shoulders above
other men, chest broad and deep, face
full-orbed, beaming with health and
sympathetic kindness. forehead wide,
and deep, large. dark eyes. flashing
CLEANS of intelligence and good nature.
The contour of the face is very mobile,
since its muscles of expression are flexi-
BILE and spontaneously adapt the face to
express the emotion that is yelling up
from the heart. His step is firm, car
rage of body erect, head thrown well
backward, denoting vitality. Over six
feet in height, his entire bodily make
up constitutes him physical king of
men,"
DR.. Brooks magnificent physical en-
dowments are fully matched by those OF
the intellectual order. 'His tempera-
ment is a harmonious blending of the
vital, mental and motive systems. Some

follow DR.. Brooks discourse because he
spoke so rapidly, not knowing that such
rapidity was the effect mainly of his eX-
cessive vitality. But there are many
exceilences i'm Brooks delivery. His
voice is free from all metallic and repul-
sive sounds. 1t has not the silyery
clearness nor the penetrating quality of
Wendell Phillips. nor the compass, fex-
ibility, volume and expressive intOna-
alton of Henry Ward Beecher, but it
has depth and grandeur of resonance
and intensity of enunciation. an ami
mated and expressive utterance, nat
uraI and sympathetic tone, and, when
vitallsed and charged at the cerebral
batteries of his large brain, swayS an
audience at will with an overwhelming
current of magnetism. His delivery is
buoyant and exhilarating, hopeful and
confident. Indeed. it could hardly be
otherwise, so great are his physical
gifts. In the expression of his thoughts
in words there is sometimes verbosity
and lack of clearnesS, but in the main
he is fOrcible and eloquent"
DIR. Brooks is now man of fifty-five
years of age. Born in Boston of New
England stock, he is one of family of
six boys, four of whom became ministers
of the gospel. His first parish was
Holy Trinity, Philadelphia; then he
was called to Boston at thirty-fve years
OF age. His new church. erected after
the destruction of Old Trinity by fire,
cost 100000.

SHORTENING THE COURSE.

There has probably been more prog
ress in the improvement OF educational
methods within the last ten years
than in any preceding hundred years,
and yet we have thirdly more than made
fair start in the educational progress.
Each step forward has been suggestive
of an additional step that is necessary
to be taken, and thus by successive
courses we are brought up to the real
starting point. tits at last beginning
to dawn on the minds of our educators
that an educational machine is not
needed. The recent action of Har-
ward and Columbia colleges, proposing
to reduce the course of collegiate study
from four to three years, is clearly in
the line of modern educational progress,
and there is but little question that
other colleges will soon fall into line on
this innovation. The tendency is to get
education down 10 business basis. The
material ideas which dominate this age
of industrial progression necessitate
this change in our educational methods.
Is this for the better or for the worse?
is the question now veXing the minds of
the more thoughtful. Whether they
approve or disapprove the change, they
fully realize that our methods are
changing and that all our ideas and
systems of education are undergoing
a reconstruction. In some respects it is
for the worse. The standard of scholar
ship is being lowered, and will be still
further lowered. The interests of
higher education cannot possibly be
promoted by the adoption of the new
policy. And yet, for all practical pur-
poses, it would perhaps be better if the
college course should be still further
shortened.
This is too busy an age for young men
to be losing time in acquiring knowl-
edge that can be of no practical use to
them in the affairs of life. This is the
view that man of such practical eX-
perience as Mr.. CARNEGIE took of it,
when few years ago he declared that
college training was positive draw
back to a young business man. This
view was founded on the assumption
that college graduate lost eight of the
best wears of his life; that is, it took
him fully four years to unlearn what
had been acquired during his four
years. college course. Mr.. CARNEGIE
was severely criticised at the time for
such an unorthodoX opinion, and was
roasted by all the college faculties.
Yet he has lived to see two of our lead
ing American colleges giving recogni-
ton of the force of public sentiment in
direction of the CARNEGIE theory by
reducing their collegiate course as bid
for patronage. 1t will get to be SO di

Cardinal Newman railing.

Remorseless time has done its work,
says the London Echo, upon Cardinal
Newman. 1t is natural and inevitable;
but it no less naturally intpires regret.
1t is strange, however, that while his
robe of flesn." to borrow st. Angus
tines expression, is so worn, the spirit
within it is still so bright and clear.
Cardinal Newman is physically so fee
BILE that he cannot walk yard without
slow, painful effort and the support of
an attendant. In fact, not until Mon
day last, when he attended mass at the
Oratory-the day being the feast of the
founder of the Oratorians--did the Biz
mingham people become fully aware of
the ravages which time had effected in
the cardinals bodily powers. Until
quite recently Cardinal Newman rose
early and and attended most of the adj
ministrations of the convent. But this

The South on Grant.

Baltimore sun.
The South cherishes especially kindly
feelings towards Gen. Grant, because he
showed himself as generous and chival-
rous in victory as he was able and per-
severing in war, and there are probably
thousands of ex-ConfederateS who
would be glad to contribute to such a
fund as suggested by our correspond
ent, if the proposition should assume
practical shape. Baltimore would I'M
doubtedly be proud to add to her many
noble monuments a fitting memorial,
erected by Southern funds, to the soldier
whose voice was among the first raised
for peace and for the restoration of the
spirit as well as the form of true polit-
ical union.

rectly that the most popular college will
be the one with the shortest course, and,
in time, it may be there will be no col
leges at all.
The tendency is to ally the technical
schools with the public school system,
and the result is to increase the expen-
siyeness of the system. The expert
ment is risky one, yet the inclination
of the masses is to try it. If the eXper-
iment proves success, the necessity for
college training will be obviated, unless
we proceed upon Col. HIGGINsON's
theory that the chief value of a college
course consists. in the atmosphere of
culture which students breathe.

reign which has been supported by the
aid of the boodler and the hummer, but
the limit to their patience has about
been reached. Those who have read
American history correctly now see
signs of an approaching revolution
which will surely purify the political
atmosphere. The masses are honest
and patriotic, if they are vexatiously
conservative at times. They will not
suffer republican government to fail
on this continent.

The Federal Election Bill.
Philadelphia Times.

PnlIadelpnla Times.
1t is, in fact, bill to enable an ire
sponsible board of federal canvassers,
not answerable to the people of state
or its laws. to declare who is elected to
congress in each district of the state,
and the clerk of the house is required to
place only the names of persons so
certified on the roll of the house
for organization of that body I'M
der penalty of fine or Imprisonment.
The house once organized under this
revolutionary method, there could be
no redress, no matter how sweeping the
violence of the fraud and the fact that
the authors of this bill have seated con-
testants who were beaten four to one at
their home elections, proves the pur-
pose of Speaker Reed and his fellow
revolutionists to steal the next house
from the people. They know that they
will lose it; they mean to steal the
power that the people refuse them.
