The % Eoly inouisition."

We do not wonder that the Church
of Rome would very willingly blot
out, if it were possible, the entire his
tory of the Holy Inquisition. AS this
is impossible the only way which isleft
is to become apologetic, and enter mild
and deprecating pleas for charitable
judgments and for forbearance in
Speaking judicially of the men of the
past. Very lately Father Clark, at a
meeting of the Historical Research
Society, in London, which was presid-
ed over by Archbishop Vaughan, made
a defence of this cruel institution, OF
this kind. 1t was not so bad as 1t has
heen represented-not nearly so bad.
It was only court of lnquiry-no-
thing more and nothing less. 1t was
q very proper and useful tribunal, sim
ply meant for Investigations. He did
not describe with any fulness the
methods of which is used in it's investi-
cations. He did not allud to the in
auiries which were pursued by means
of the thumb-scrcw and the rack. lie
did not hint al the dark dungeons and
noiesesome cells, where men and wo-
men perished forgotten and alone.
The verdict of history is not thus to Ge
set aside. The records of the Holy
Inuuisition" are still extant, and they
form O terrible Indictment against the
"Fathers" who have it's name stand
for all that is stern and devilish.

God tells us how he will work for us,
with US, and in US In the building up
of character, in the planting and eul-
ture. of the trees of Righteousness.
First, ashes that is, sorrow for sin.
In olden times when man was be-
reaved of property or friends like JOB,
he put on sackcloth and sat In ashes.
So when man Is willing to give up
his unbelief, his selfishness, his world
illness, to cut off, if need be, his right
hand or pluck out his right eye, in:or-
der to show the sincerity Of his repent
ance, he is ready to receive the beauti-
full robe of righteousness. That robe
cannot be given TO him who would
throw 1t over filthy rags. Those rags
must be stripped off and burned. The
fire must consume the dross before the
gold can appear in its purity. From
the ashes in the crucible the refiner
brings forth that which Is radaint and
precious. And God says Of Christ, the
Messenger of the Covenant "He
shall sit Us refiner and purifier Of sill
ver." And he inspired Paul to write:
"Our light affliction, which is but for
q moment, worketh for US q far more
exceeding and eternal weight Of glo-
ry." The fire that burns up the dross,
that reduces to ashes our earthly hopes
and joys, prepares the way for our
growth in grace, and in the knoWE
edge and love Of God'-Obediah Old
school, in Interior.

Delegated infallibillty.

There is no proposition too absurd to
be accepted by the human mind:
When the Vatican Council in the mid
blaze of the nineteenth century de-
creed the infallibility of the Pope, it
seemed to reach and pass the utmost
limit of nonsense. That vast numbers
of people, many of them Of fine intel
ligence, should give their assent to so
moDstrous proposition is nothing less
than amazing. But now comes anoth-
er demand upon the faithful. Pope
Leo XIII. has transferred and delegat-
ed his sovereign authority over the
Romanist Churches in the United
States to Monisgnor Satolli, saying to
him in so many words: "Whatever
sentence or penalty you shall declare
or inflict duly against those who op.
pose your authority. we will ratlfy."
Does this make Satolli also infallible ?
1t looks that way to US for the Pope,
who can certainly make no mistake,
his promised in advance to "ratify" all
the actions of Monsignor. Suppose,
now that 1.-THE apostolic delegate" In
this exercise of the unlimited power
and authority thus granted to him
should conclude to ease himself of
part of his burdens by calling in some
one of the bishops as an associate
would he be able to make to him
partition and distribution OF his mira
culous gifts? What is to binder
And there are actually Protestants

of the patrons and promoters of such
foolishness ?-Nashville Christian Ad
vocate.

plain and keep in order the exhibits
&c? This will be a contribution as
good as money. We shall need al
least two persons to be present all the
time. Many of our members are quail
flied to fill this requirement, especially
our young persons. The plan is To
take charge alternately. Send in your
names to the chairman of this commit.

In every religious movement there

In every religious movement there
are counter currents. Southern Pre-
byterian Church, which Is as plucky
and steadfast band of Christians as
can be found IN the world, now has
twenty-seven new missionaries ready
to 60 into different foreign fields. But
for some unexplained reason, there
has been within the last month or two
q considerable falling off In the re-
ceipts of missionary money. The Sec
retaries urge renewed liberality.-
Nashville Advocate.
The rage for honorary degrees in let
ters, theology, philosophy, and law,
does not abate. Nothing is more dis
gusting than the shameless persisten-
cy with which men who cannot write
ten consecutive sentenses Of good Eng
lish seek to secure for themselves the
supposed honor of these titular distinc-
tions. We rather think that the time
has come when our institutions of
learning should bestow their degrees
only on those who pass stipulated ex-
mination. Nashville Advocate.
The cause of peace therefore is the
cause Of national righteousness. In
80 far as nation Is unjust, cruel and
an abetter of bad men in satisfying
their lower passions, 1t means war, for
all these things contain the seeds of
war. But there is no divine necessity
for war.
The Spanish peasant works every
day and dances half the night, and
yet eats only his black bread, onion
and watermelon. The Smyrna porter
eats only little fruit and some olives,
and yet he walks off with his load of
two hundred pounds.
A number of small pastures are bet
ter that single large one. They go
farther and give more feed when the
cattle can be changed from one to
another, thus giving each period of
rest.
For felon make poultice of lin
seed oil and white lead. If that fails
apply Spanish fly blister the size of q
pea. This painful complaint demands
heroic treatment based upon the prin-
ciple that the pent-up poison within
must be drawn to the surface.

Copperas dissolved and added to white
wash used for cellars and outhouses

Many sheepmen fail to obtain the
best result because they do not under
stand the close relation between wool

ed the divine teachings of Nature al
to know that there is no individual
health except through the health o

The Stream That Never Dries Up.
Presbyterian.

Twas once stopping at a village on
the Welsh Coast, where the people had
to bring all the water from q we'll.
us this we'll never dry ?' inquired
of a young girl who came to draw wa
ter.
"Dry?, Yes, ma'am; very often in
hot weather"
then ?"
"To the spring little way out Of
town."
"And if that spring dries up?"
"Why, then we go to the spring
higher up, the best water of ALL"
HBut if the stream higher up fails %
"Why, ma'am, that stream never
dries up-never. 1t is always the
same winter and summer"
went to this precious brook which
"never" dries up. 1t was a clear,
sparkling rivulet, coming down the
high hill-not with torrent leap aid
roar, but soft murmur of fullness and
freedom. 1t flowed down the high
way side ; it was within reach of every
child's pitcher; it was enough fol-
every empty vessel. The small birds
came down thither to drink the sheep
and the lambs had trodden down lit
tie path to its brink. The thirsty
beasts of burden, along the dusty road
knew the way to the stream that
never dries up"
1t reminded me of the waters of life
and salvation flowing from the Rock
of Ages and brought within the reach
of ali men by the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. Every other brook may
grow dry in the days of drought ant
adversely, but this heavenly spring
never ceases to flow.
