GRACE cHuRcH.

Almost thirty years ago Mr. Stevenson,
the pastor, dedicated Grace church. He
delivered AN eloquent sermon at the
reopening yesterday after extensive re-
pairs and complete redecoration, with
beauty of speech aud graceful ease of
manner for which he has always been
conspicuous
We do not know what or who gave
Grace church its name; it is likely that
it was suggested by the spiritual signif-
cance Of the word grace, and its re-
minder of the marvellous and compre-
hensive attribute of the Creator who
exercises His bountiful saving grace
freely upon all mankind rich or poor,
great or small without restriction and
without limit, as BELTS the God of loving
kindness
But howeverit it came, the name is not
Inappropriate in every other sense.
Upon its re-opening the church is sug-
/ gestive Of grace in form, color and ar
rangement There are many combina
tions to please the eye and elevate the
thought Viewing the premises from
without there is a mass of restive green
exquisitely diversified with darker and
lighter shades Of neutral colors skillfully
employed TO construct building ample
and imposing in appearance, and especially
adapted for the purpose of meeting
place wherein TO worship the Being
who flung out this universe Of VIII irling
worlds from chaos and painted the
modest violet that lifts its tiny he ad n
mute admiration az our feet The dig
nifty Of the spire attracts attention, lends
the impression of height TO the structure
and points to the home Of the Christian in
the blissful hereafter. Inside there is the
same dignity with a softer touch, a
tenderer sentiment The same gothic
simplicity of design is preserved, but
there is something sweeter tenderer,
more compassionate in the tone than the
strength and endurance of the stone
outside suggest The interior is in
viting, cheering, elevating.
In days, happily gone by, in many
localities IL was esteemed a sin, or at
least a hateful thing, to have any grac,
. or beauty of form and color about ,
church. Everything was forbidding ant
chilly, even the air was clammy. THAI
/, exquisite rococo frieze which furnishes
the most attractive ornamentation of tn,
interior would have thrown an old-tim,
= Methodist into fits. The church was re
garded by the holy men Of long ago as
place for discomfort, hard benches, lonl
. sermons, and no warmth was allowed ex
+. cept that which the trembling SHINE
I could obtain from the hell-fre denuncia

THERE is an element in the Republi-
can party which is very restive under
the frauds Of Republican protection"
and the threat of the Force bill That is
shown by the aggravated commotion con
sequent upon recent defections Whether
there will be great loss to the party
because Of the refusal Of this element TO
act with the radicals depends on the
knightly courage and the personal inde-
pendence of the men who constitute It,
The report that Levi c. Bird, Of this
city, would renounce the party is proba-
bly, not warranted, but we are sure that
he feels grossly outraged at the use that
MahaiIy, Higgins Bach and that crowd
are making Of the party in Delaware.
Mr. Bird is a native Deawarean. Tie has
no use for carpet -baggers or for the horde
Of tin-plate patriots that have engaged TO
deliver the Republican vote of this state
to Harrison, in order that they
may profit by the future dis
tribution of consequential spoils.
There are many Republicans not directly
interested in the robberies of the maple
sugar, heavily y-taxed.steel and pearl
button industries, who believe that the
Mckinley bill was not only mistake in
policy but that from the nature Of the
bargains made in the committee rooms
between the men who had the goods for
sale and the Legislators who increased
the taxes on them, the bill is corrupt
Mr.. Bird is too intelligent a lawyer,
too much a man of affairs not to
know the dangerous temptation to fraud
of a system which puts the taxing power
into the hands of lot of monopolists
Mr. Bird and many thousands like him
may believe in reasonable protective
tariff, but they cannot consistently sup
port the extravagant robbery committed
by the protected barons, under the guise
of protecting labor, in the Mckinley
bill. These men have no more interest
in the national Republicanism of Car
negie, of maple sugar. of tin plate, than
in the local negro bribery of the i'm
ported saints who are running Delaware
Republcanism.

WHEN England was going through a
similar struggle against the monopolists
that we are waging here now, that pa
triot and splendid orator, Daniel OCou-
nell, speaking against the Corn Laws in
September lSi3 said;
And what is the meaning of protectiong
Il means an additional sixpence for the
loaf that is the lnsto of il. II he had
not the protection a loaf would sell for a
shilling; but If he has protection it will
sell for shilling and sixpence Pro
lection is the English for sixpence. and,
what is more, il is the English for an ex.
torted sixpence The real meaning Of
protection, therefore, is robbery-robbery
of the poor by the rich.
Thus, history repeats itself. If Dan
iel O'Connell were in this country today,
he would not be a Blaine Irishman fawn
ing at the feet of this administration fol
a mission, and salary attachment, tC
speculate in South American mines and
besmirched claims. We have the sam,

tended against then, under the new

only nine years, by which time Mr. Clay
argued that those infant industries would
equip themselves so as to be able to COM

been increased four or five times on those
same infant Industries, till the shoe and
silk industries clamored against It, and
the Mckinley bill now imposes about
three times that duty on wool. The Re

principle by imposing a duty on tin plate
for a limited time, but they were not
