as the assembly will celebrate the
union of the old school and new school
churches, which occurred in 1870. Presi-
dent Francis l.. Patton, of Princeton,
will deliver an address on the subject
of the reunion, and other speakers Of
national reputation will follow him.
The deliberations of the general as
sembly are expected to continue for
three weeks, and the celebrated Briggs
case will be one of the subjects to be
considered. Another question of the
utmost Importance will be the relation
ship of the theological seminaries to
the general assembly. and particularly
the future attitude of the Presbyterian
church to the graduates of Union Theo-
logical seminary, which invokes the
question of the fitness of men who have
come under the influence of DR.. Briggs
and his coterie to receive ordination to
the Presbyterian ministry.
There is a movement among the eX-
treme conservatives to bring up the
question Of DR.. Briggs deposition from
the ministry. DR.. Briggs is now under
suspension, and the year for which this
sentence runs expires shortly after the
adjournment of the last general assem-
bly,. During that year DIR. Briggs con-
tinued to occupy position in the Union
seminary which can be held only by a
regularly ordained Presbyterian minis
ter and he has repeatedly appeared in
pulpits as a lecturer. Moreover, the
conservatives are of opinion that DR..
Briggs intends to turn his back on the
Presbyterian church, and 1t is their in
tention to make his humiliation COM
plete before this event takes place. DR..
Briggs has been taking communion at
Protestant Episcopal church, and, ac-
cording to the office of that church, no
one not member should accept COM
munion there unless 1t is his intention
to conform to the church. All Of DR..
Briggs family, although they were
raised in the Presbyterian faith, have
conformed to the Episcopal church.

we know that it sounds quackish to talk about the Electropoise curing in curable diseases, but bear in mind the fact that it is the old treatment which has pronounced the case incurabe We do not make the claim that we can cure all so-called incurable diseases, but we do maintain with all earnestness that a case pronounced ineurable by your fam fly physician is a splendid field for the operation of the Electropoise. It may be just the treatment necessary, and is quite likely to be so If it fails this is no argument against the "Poise," but In such a case the fact of the physicians statement is proven to be true. But manys the patient who has been given up by his physician who has again re- ceived life through treatment of the Electropoise."
