AFTER theirreturn from the Synod
of Virginia, the Rev w. G. Camp
bell and elder r. b. Norman gave
an account of it to their Church in
Roanoke. Capt. Norman, in the
course of his remarks, said: How
wonderfully God has blessed the
effort to establish his Church in
this land of civil and religious free
dom. In 1710, in the several pro-
vinces. ten ministers. In 1898, in
the combined Presbyterian Church
es North and South, they being es-
sentiallq identical IN faith and doc
trine, there were last April 1850
ministers, 1,O43,63 COMMITMENTS,
and their contributions to all causes
for the past year amounted to $16,-
$50, S91."
On this the Presbyterian Journal
(Philadelphia), comments as fol-
lows:
Essentially identical in faith
and doctrine and government and
worship and activiti 9s-and cover
ing the same territory under the
same civil government-and yet
separated Alas!
We would suggest to the Journal
that if there had been faith full
adherence to the standards of the
Church, North and South, which
are essentially identical in faith
and doctrine" there never would
have been any separation, and that
even now the attitude of large part
of the Northern Church, threaten
ing the integrity of these standards,
is the chief obstacle in the way of
reunion.

The Rev. DR.. Charles f Deems,
who has for years been pastor OF the
Church OF the Strangers in n. York,
died in that city last Saturday
night in the "a h year of his age.
The life of DR.. Deems has been a
remarkable one. He was South
ern man and connected with the
Southern Methodist Church. Soon
after the close of the war he went
to New York city and entered upon
a new career. He was a very attrac-
tive preacher and soon became we'll
known as the pastor of the church
on Mercer street.
Conn odore Vanderbilt, the
founder of the Vanderbilt millions,
took great interest in the work of
the enthusiastic Southern preacher,
and he bought the church property
and gave it to DR.. Deems. He will
be missed not only by the "strang.
ers' who go to New York, but also
by many citizens who sympathised
with the good work he was doing.

RABBI CALIsCH, of the Jewish syn.
agogue, Beth Ahaba," of this city,
publishes a letter in The Times of
last Sunday which is not good read
ing for Sunday or for any other day.
In it he asserts, contrary to the best
authenticated historical facts in the
annals of the world, that "the Jews
did not cruelty Jesus" neither were
they morally responsible for his
death"
Rabbi Calisch is not to be blamed
for undertaking the defence of his
own people, so far as it is consistent
with historical TRUTH" but he re-
wives the unfounded accusation of
the Priests and Scribe that Jesus
allowed himself to be set up as
king against the Roman power, and
so was guilty of treason" and died
as ga political malefactor." Of
course the whole world knows that
Jesus was not put to death by the
Jews but suffered under Pontius
PLATE but when PLATE sought
to release him, the Jews cried out,
saying, If thou let this man go thou
are not Caesars friend: whatsoever
maketh himself king, speaketh
against Caesar"
Rabbi Calisch ought to know that
the very same evidence which shows
that Jesus was crucifed by the
Roman power, shows also that it
was done at the instigation of the
Jews.

THE GAMBLING EVIL.

The vice of gambling in its many
forms is one of the most insidious
and most corrupting with which the
guardians of morality have to con-
tend 1t is not confined to saloons
ard pool rooms where only the vul-
gar and reckless resort, but it enters
the highest walks of life, and gath
ers its victims from all ranks in
society. "The gambling passion
has brought ruin and Disgrace to
many trusted men in commercial
circles, disaster to many business
interests, and diverted vast sums of
money from the channels of honest
and Legitimate industry Into the
homes of the land the same passion
has brought immeasurable shame,
sorrow and misery through the
crimes and misdeeds committed at
its instigation."
In view of it's enormous evils and
their prevalence, the lovers of vir-
ture and morality throughout the
Union propose to unite in earnest
efforts to check its progress, and, as
far as possible, to influence whole
some Legislation for its suppression.
We have before us circular is
sued by number of prominent
ministers and other public men,
North and South, making a strong
appeal to all good citizens to unite
in strenuous and uncompromising
opposition to the gigantic evil.
The circular is signed by such
men as Rev. Dr. B. NJ. Palmer of
New Orleans, who did such good
service against the Louisiana Lot
terry scheme, Bishops Vincent and
Hurst of the Methodist Church,
Bishop Huntington of the Episco-
pal Church, Rev. DR.. F. L. Patton,
President of Princeton College, DIR.
Josiah Strong, and many others.
They have sent this appeal to the
editors of secular and religious
papers with the request that they
will publish it in whole or in part.
We are sorry not to be able to give
our readers the whole circular in
stead of few extracts only. After
referring to the history of the
Louisiana Lottery, to the passage Of
the Ives Pool Law in New York
State, and to the more recent race
track legislation in New Jersey, by
which that old and once-honored
commonwealth was literally sold
into the handsof ring of gam blers,
it calls special attention to the
prevalent racc track gambling as fol.
lows:
"Of all forms of gambling now
prevalent, that of the race-tracks
and their adjuncts the city pool
rooms, is undoubtedly the most for
mi1abe and the most dangerous.
A volume would be needed to give
the details in regard to the vast
network of political, commercial,
Judicial and legislative accessories
and alliances which go to the sup.
port and development of race track
gambling 1t is estimated by a
writer friendly to the race-track in
terssts in q current periodical, that
there cannot be less than one hun
dred million dollars embarked in
racing and enterprises dependent
on it, The incomes Of race track
owners are DriuceIv ir the extreme.
