The New York Evangelist (Pres.) nat
urally is elated over the large vote given
to Dr. Brown of Oregon for Moderator OF
the General Assembly, and says: "Phls
show of strength was tremendous, ana
struck the solid body OF conservatives as
if it were a tidal wave from the PACING.
1t surprised even those who were In the

they might have done If they had only
appreciated their own strength and used
il. DIR. Brown would have been trium-
phantly elected-a result that was averted
only by the frantic efforts of his opponents
to bring up every man, and even then
DR.. Mutchmore was chosen only by
majority of L in total vote OF 800! What
does it signify? That the men of the Pa
cific Coast have gone over IN body to
the side of Professor Briggs? Not at all.
DIR. Brown is not Briggs man any more
than is DIR. John Hall of New York.
And so with those who voted for DIR.
Brown for Moderator. They
are soldiers in the Lords army, and to
come to them in the beat of battle and
pirate about the five points of Calvlnism,
is an impertinence which they suffer for
while, till they get impatient and indig-
nant, and are ready to cry out, Who are
these that drag on the wheels of the
Lords chariot? Away with them? That
is the Interpretation of the vote for Dr.
Brown. It is indeed tidal wave from
the Pacific. Let those who have pro-
voked such an outburst of indignation
take the warning and tiy to cover. lest at
another Assembly the tide riser higher
still and sweep them all away"

eff it be said that other nations recorded
events as produced by the gods, this again
brings out the superiority of the Jewish
annals" remarks the New York Chris
tiaqa IatelLigencer (Ref.). "Other histo-
ries present warning divinities animated
by base passions, moved by jealousy,
partiality, paying off old scores and seek
ing personal advantages. Jupiter has
his favorite and helps him, Juno has
hers, Venus another, Mars another, and
these deities are engaged in unseemly
strife. If Achilles and Hector fight, one
deity or group of deities aids one, another
one or group helps the other, and SO his
tory is written when Greece and Rome
have reached the summit of their intel
lectual achievements. But in the Jewish
history holy, just and good law which
every mans conscience approves Is adj
mlnistered by one true and living God.
How is this difference TO be accounted
for? Criticism of numerical errors or
other errors of trifiing importance is
puerile. The character of the history and
the wonderful way in which it is told. a
way that charms and never surfeits from
childhood to old age, is to be accounted
for. The solution is: 1t is inspired his
tory. There is human element in it;
but that is inferior. Men for some reason
are magnifying this human element.
But the divine element is dominant, Is in
control, is the main element in the com-
pos ition.n
