Certain students of the Union
Theological Seminary of New
York, says the Baltimore News,
have given trouble to the faculty
by rebelling against the rule
which requires the seniors to
deliver before the dean and their
classmates short sermons based
upon Biblical texts. Six minutes
is allotted for each sermon, and
five sermons are delivered each
week, one each by five different
students, until every member Of
the class has preached.
The purpose of this routine is
evident; it is to give the young
men readiness and facili' Y,
quick command of thought and
concentration Of expression, and
such a discipline appears excel
lent, and shouldmake them good
preachers in future. Neverthe.
less, the students object, dislik.
ing thus to stand up for criti-
cism of their delivery, attitudes,
gestures, pronunciation, etc ,
and urging that it is impossible
to preach a convincing and eff
fective sermon in so short q
space Of time as six minutes.
The art of delivering short
sermons is what theological stu
dents especially need to cult.
vate nowadays, when congrega
tiOns are impatient Of long dis.
courses and universally prefer
quality to quantity. The time
was when the value and merit
of the preacher was measured
by the length of his homily, the
strength Of his lungs and the
vigor with which he pounded
the back of the Bible before
him, and in the good old days
the divine WHO held his congre.
cation for two hours and o half

The New York Sun says that
on account of the increase of
cotton manufacturing in the
south, there has been a demand
from there upon New England
for skilled mill hands. For
those factories in the Carolinas
and Georgia that produce the
lower grades Of goods, there is
plenty of cheap labor on the
spot; but very few factories
have yet been set up anywhere
in the south from which goods
OF the finer qualities can be
turned out. The trained and
expert men and women are not
to be found there, and they
must be got from the eastern
states for years to come. Some
of the eastern capitalists who
have made investments in Car
olina mills have been seeking
TO induce skilled operatives in
the east to go there; but very
few of these operatives are will.
ing to go south. They fear that
they would lose many of the
advantages of life which they
possess in New England or New
York, and that domestic con.
ditions would be less satisfac.
tory for them than those tc
which they have been accus
toned.
We suggest that their preju-
dices would be removed by g
rise of wages in the south; and
we suppose they could soon es
tabllsh for themselves here al
good social conditions as those
left behind. 1t would seem tC
be a mistake for factory hands
to remain idle in the east if they
can get employment elsewhere
