TIE RRANpYMlNE CAMP.

The incident Of large body Of peo-
pie encamplng in the country for two
weeks to attend to religious duties, is
notable.
Those Methodists camping at Brandy.
wine Summit, are busy people, engaged
in the ordinary industries and avocations
which absorb the attention Of the people
here, which they abandon for the benefit
Of their souls. They are neither fanatics
nor one.ideaed enthusiasts. They are
plain, matter.of fact, sensible and earn
est people who are in no way different
from or inimical TO the other people who
compose this conservative common
wealth. In fact, they are a part OF it.
They assist materially in numbers, indus
try. wealth and intelligence in forming
this commonwealth.
Taere are many kinds of excursions
for pleasure, for relief from the cares Of
business and the duties Of the household.
But they embrace few families. club,
church, or lot Of children, and ex-
tend over day only. Those excursions
are composed of persons Of the same age,
the same sex, OF Of those who have the
objects of lying and fishing, or of fishing
aud lying in view But Brandywine
Summit Camp presents the phenomenon
Of all ages, all classes and all conditions
Of people, from every walk in life, gath
cred together for the serious and solemn
purpose Of religious.e s.examination and i'm
provement, by familiar intercourse among
themselves for many days. They
have abandoned everything else. They
d. nothing but sing, talk,
preach and teach religion. They
think of nothing else. They will
not permit anyone who may visit them
to think of anything else. They have
turned their souls to God, and their
fervor inspires or prompts every other
person to turn his soul to God. tie can
not prevent It, II he would.
This, we say, is notable Incident. How
ever man may view the spectacle, he
cannot, he dare not, ridlcule It. II, per.
chance he goes to mock, the serious and
sweet earnestness Of the sensible and
charitable Teople he meets compels him
to remain and pray; or, at the very
least, to sneak away, as quietly as pos
slble, with some valuable information tc

All Of this; their devotion amid pri

that 1t has not lost its control over thl

The Limits Of Arbitration.

With international arbitration we
confess to having comparatively little
sympathy. If nations mean to fight,
nothing will prevent their so doing, and
agreements to arbitrate will be of very
little service. The suggestion Of an
agreement between England and the
United States to establish permanent
machinery for regulating their disputes
is, however, quite different. Nations in
whom tho same racial characteristics
are to be found, who are influenced by
the same ideas, who talk the same Ian
guage, read the same books and possess
the samopolitical traditions, are capable
OF making an agreement to settle dis
putes by arbitration a reality.
Again, an agreement not to fight till
the question Ia dispute has been referred
to body exercising the functions of a
court Of law is. a step in the direction of
that alliance between the United States
and England which, we trust and be-
leve, is the destiny of the two countries.
II we begin by an acknowledgment that
we are not in the position of foreign
powers. O., liable 20 war at any
ment-we may soon rise to a definite
race alliance, and lastly to that declara.
tionofacommon citizenship which would
prevent any Englishman from being an
alien in America or any American being
an alien in England and would heal the

the folly Of George III and his ministers
