The New York Republicans are making
brilliant and spirited campaign. Mr.
Fassett, the young candidate of the party,
is speaking to great audiences and the
people manifest a splendid enthusiasm
wherever he appears. Up to this time on
the contrary, it is perfectly evident that
the Democratic canvass is dragging badly.
The Republican papers are quoting with
deadly effect the many things said by the
Democratic papers only a few years ago
ridicuing Mr.. Flower, and his aspirations
for public office. Sheehan, too, the Dem
Ocratic candidate for lieutenant governor,
is being rakcd for and aft for his connection
with the assembly ceiling frauds, the New
York city alueduct frauds, and the Buffalo
dock and terminal railway grant scandal.
1t is rather too much to hope for Republi-
can success in New York this year, but
the party is making a fight which will tell
in 1892.

Prof. Charles A. Briggs. of the Union theo-
logical seminary New York city, will be
tried for heresy for the doctrines taught by
him in his inaugural address on taking the
chair of biblical theology in that institution.
A committee of the New York presbytery.
appointed to consider his case and prefer
charges, reported at the semi-annual meet
ing of the presbytery, which began its ses-
sions at New York on Monday. The re
port was very voluminous. The charges
sum up to the fact that DR.. Briggs does
not believe in the absolute infallibiity and
inerrancy of the Bible. and that he believes
that some persons who cannot come to saw
ing grace through faith may do so through
reason. \ motion was made in the pres
bytery To accept the committees report,
discharge it from further service, and there
rest the judicial or ecclesiastical proceed
ings. When put to vote this motion was
lost ~ ayes to ia nays. II is a singular
fact that majority of six clergymen, 80 to
~, voted aye. while a majority of eight eld-
ders,20 to II, voted nay, and the laymen
thus carried the day and decided that the
Presbyterianchurch should he torn up with
a protracted heresy trial. DR.. Briggs was
given ten days in which to prepare an an
swer to the charges against him.

Making the Children Fear Animals

A pretty child, just about able 10 talk,
was coaxing bcribboned stray poodle on
Staten Island ferrybcat with Nice dog
gle. Nice doggie, | Ike Co when the
child's nurse suddenly glanced up from a
novel that she was reading and exclaimed
sharply: Don't do that, Alice, he'll bite
you. Go away, you nasty dog!' The child
Immediately drew away from the dainty
and harmless dog with IN expression of
fear. A few minutes afterwavd her keen
eyes espied a canary bird in pretty cage
She toddled over to it, and again her baby
prattle was heard. Nice birdie! Nice
birdier'
Again the nurse raised her eyes from her
novel, and, stretching out her hand. she
drew the child back into It's seat with the
stereotyped admonition: Don't. Alice; the
bird will bite you. Go away, naughty
bird" During the rest of the ride the child
sat still, with a shade OF perpieXity on her
pretty, innocent face. Doubtless she was
wondering if every little playful creature
that crossed her path would bite her
