The First Com M and.


To tie Editor of the Dispatch:
The question has been given out by the
Sunday schools here. What was the. first
command in the Bible? Some contend that
when God said let there be light there
was light" that was the FIRST command.
The writer thinks differently. He con-
strues this as part of the creation. Kind
" answer and oblige. u.
1t all depends in what light we consider
the word command" The words in
Genesis l., 8. are declaration. and may DOS
sibly be considered command. but it is
made to inanimate matter, whereas the
usual significance Of command is an edict
gwen to o responsible and intelligent crea-
ture. See Genesis H.. 16, which is really
the first recorded command-viz., And
the Lord God commanded the man saying,
of every tree of the garden thou mayest
eat freely"

Itisa question of Some doubt as to
whether crops produced by the house.
holder upon lands which have been
set apart as part OF his home
stead exemption can be subject
cd to the ordinary debts OF the
householder. We are inclined tothe opin-
ion that the crops so produced are not so
liable, and as q consequence there need
not be any additional homestead deed put
to record. The statutes are silent on
the subject. and our Court OF Appeals has
not passed on the question.

Methodists and Baptism.
LEWISTON. N. @.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Ia il against the Book of Discipline OF
the Methodist Church to baptize. persons
after they have been baptized In infancy,
il they desire to be baptized again2
Please give plain answer and oblige
constant reader.
There is nothing in the Book of Disci-
pline directly upon the subject referred to
by our correspondent. But as one OF the
4" Articles of Religion" says expressly
"the baptism of young children is to be
retained IN the Church." and Methodist
history and legislation is in maintenance
of the doctrine of infant baptism, it does
not allow a person to be again baptized by
its ministers because he may F" desire to
be-" The usage is uniformly against this,
and although we do not now remember
case Of censure or punishment of minis
ter for so baptizing, We have no doubt that
the annual conference OF which he is a
member ,could censure a minister who
should baptize person known to have
been baptized in infancy.

Hili's Majority.



To the Editor Of the DtsDdtch:
Will you be kind enough to let me know
il D. b. Hill ever carried majority OF
votes in New York State? Some folks say
he (HilD never did.
Yours truly, X. l.. Q.
In 1882 Grover Cleveland ran for Gov
ernor of New York. with David B. Hill as
Lieutenant-G Governor. Cleveland's ma
jority over Folgsr Rapublican) for Gov
ernor was ls2,sA. Hills majority over
Carpenter RepuDlican) for Lieutenant
Governor was 1876, 781.
1t is not usual to elect State officers in
New York by majority.
In the presidential election OF 1888 Hill
received more votes than Harrison, yet
Harrison carried New York BY 1899 plu-
rality.

Tho Cup and the Lip.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Please let me know who 1t was that gave
rise to the proverb There's many slip
'twixt the cup and the lip?
1t seems TO me that it was some Grecian
ruler or monarch who left cup of wine
untnsted until he returned from hunting.
He never returned, but was killed. The
wine was never drunk by him.
Very truly, >. A. L.
Hazlitt quotes it as one of the oldest of
English proverbs" There is many slip
'twixt the cup ard the lip"
F. MANY things happen between the cup
and the lip," says Burton in the Anatomy
of Melancholy.
But to trace the origin of the proverb ID
impossible. 1t no doubt exists IN many
languages.
