very suggestion. 1t is difficult to i'm
agine a seyerer blow to the influence
of the Bible in the world than the
charge that its own friends are afraid
of free and exhaustive critical exam
iEation of its contents.
Some of the dogmas may have to go
or be repaired for the truths sake
some of the narratives may have to
be transferred from the domain of his
tory to that of myth; but the moral
and spiritual force of this collection of
sacred books; this Hebrew library
cannot be lessered by the severesu
critical analysis. The evidences of
spiritual inspiration are intrinsic and
cannot be affected by questions as to
the identity of the individuals through
whom such inspiration came. It is a
small matter to the world who COM
posed the Psalms; they will continue
to lead mankind in religious aspira-
ton regardless of their authorship :;
the mystical christology of the epistle
to the Hebrews, and its grand and
eloquent argument for faith will be
consulted by seekers after God to the
end of time, whether it be ascertained
that the writer was Paul or Cephas.
If the Bible is of God, as we believe
the glory and power of its spiritual
tone and expression to De, all increase
of knowledge in regard to it can only
enlarge and exalt its influence upon
the world.

. THE Egyptians are getting as ex-
cited as in the time Of Arab .Pasha.
The young Khedive, like Arab, Is
being made the representative of the
national longing for independence OF
foreign control. But the Khedive,
like Arab, must yield. England has
her grip on the land of the Pharaohs,
and there is no likelihood that it viii
be !oosene1 In the near future. The
English will probably lie astonished,
as usual, that the material benefits
they have brought to the country dc
not weigh against the sentiment OF
nationality, but the fact that they
are not popular with the people they
govern will never induce them &c
give up the power they hold. En-
gland is in Egypt for her own profit
and will stay there until the Eu
ropean powers are ready 70 fight to
expel her. The fact that her rule is
also beneficial to Egypt is not due
more 30 the cold justice of the En-.
glish nature than to the fact that
orderly administration that is best
for industry is the administration
that can get the most moneEou OF I;

riches, and riches bring in taxes. Sc

SECTION 1. 1t shall be unlawful TO

manufacture, sale, or use OF any hoop
skirt or hoopskirts or anything like

incarcerated in the county Jail for o
period not exceeding thirty days.
Three cheers and tiger for tho
bold Blocker and his bill AS we
say in the vernacular, that's the stuff!
1t may be entirely pardonable for e
town to use little hustle to extend
her outskirts, but it is very different
with a woman. The hoopskirt is not
in harmony with the spirit or oul
American institutions. Its introduc.
ton would kill off the hammock in.
dustry; bicycling would lose half its
charm, and men would be forced out
Of street cars and elevators and be
obliged to walk in the middle OF the
street. A few months ago when the
Minnesota Legislature in its wisdom
saw fit to legislate against tights on
the stage the country arose as one
man and several chorus girls and took
exceptions to the wisdom of such an
arbitrary display Of prejudice against
high art and anatomy. Now, how.
ever, the contemplated reform
touches a. responsive chord in the
heart of the great American public.
