differs from other pastime studies, mas
much as it requires no apparatus save what
nature has endowed every human being
wlth-mental machinery called brains.
With good headful Of brains and an in
elination to improve the various faculties
they contain, any one may become an adept
in studying his fellow-man-hi is words, his
passions, his habits and physical peculiar
tiles, and even his inmost thoughts can be
laid bare. All of these are as plain to the
scholar Of human nature as the passages in
a book are to the reader thereof. In fol-
lowing up the calling, also, if such it may
be termed, there is no limit to the field of
research. One is not obliged to repair to a
college nor to any particular spot to carry
on his studies. 1t can be done during every
minute of every waking hour, on the
street, at his daily labor or while engaged
in recreation.
There is, however, no better opportunity
offered than when large gathering of men
and women are assembled to gether, such
as in a meeting or church or reading-room.

THE TIME DRAWS NEAR
ITEMS OF INTEREST OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
THE ELECTION TO TAKE PLACE
THURSDAY.
A Few Of the Distinguished Guests
Who VIII Add to the Pleas.
ures Gf the Meeting.

The first question of general interest in
the General Assembly is the election of
the new moderator. DR.. Hill, of this
State, who presided at Chattanooga,
will preach the opening sermon, and
preside till the organization is effected.
Any one of the 10 commissioners,
elders as well as ministers, is eligible to
this high office, and while elders have
been modcrators of synods, as in the
case of Governor Scales, of North Caro-
lima, an elder has never yet been made
a moderator of the General Assembly.
1t is not at all unlikely that some elder
will be nominated for this office, as there
are Il large number cmincntly qualified to
fill it. The election takes place after the
sermon; nominations are made and bal
lots cast. The new moderator becomes
at once the ccntralfgurc of the Assembly
throughout the sessions and upon his
ability depends the dispatch of business
After the moderator is elected, two
temporary clerks will be chosen who
shall assist the stated clerk, DR.. Wilson.
and the permanent clerk, DR.. TarriS, who
by the way is a veteran newspaper man,
the editor of the st. Louis Presbyterian.
These clerks are usually taken from the
younger men OF the body.
Among the venerable fathers who Will
he present is Rev. {. \. Stillman, ID. d.,
of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, who was mod
orator of the assembly at New Orleans i'll
1877, and who is the mainstay OF the
Tuscaloosa Institute for the training oi
colorcd ministers, as well as Iastor oi
the church there. DR.. Stillmanis a living
rciutation of the charge made by some
Northern writers that Southern men
care nothing for the intellectual ana
moral DEVELOPMENT of the colorcd man.
For wears he has devoted his time and
energies to the upbuilding of the insti-
tutc, and has maintained it against the
kccncst financial straits, and now that
| it is finally well established Tic can re'
ioicc in its success. Another venerable
man who will he present is DIR. Fcrdi
nand Jacobs, of Nashville, Tenn, whose
10 years sit lightly and gracefully upon
him. lie has ministcrcd in the gospel
for nearly fifty years, and has handed
down his ministry to two sons, both ol
whom will bc here. One of them, the
Rev. Vim. plumcr Jacobs, ID. d., of Gin
ton, S. C., whose name is familiar to al
friends of the Thornwcll orphanagc at
Clinton, and also to the friends oi the
new Presbyterian college of South Caro-
lima. DR.. Jacobs other son is the Rev. J
X Jacobs, of llillsboro, Texas, who will
sit as a commissioner in the assembly.
