being as follows; The Holy Scriptures are the Old and New Testaments; they were written by holy men, inspired by the Holy Spirit and contain Gods re- vealed will of man. They are suffi- cient and infalIible guide in religious faith and practice"
 A few years since the national council of Congregational churches appointed @ commission of representative Congre- gational pastors and professors to draft a creed which might express the com mon faith of the Congregational churches. This commission reported a creed in 1883 which may be regarded at the latest general statement of com mon Congregational faith. This creed speaks os the Bible as follows: We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the record of Gods revelations of Himself in the work of redemption that they were written by men under the special guidance of the Holy Spirit; that they are able to make men wise unto salvation, and that they constitute the authoritative standard by which re- ligious teaching and human conduct are to be regulated and judged"
 Such is the teaching concerning the Bible in the creeds of the church. I have not given you an opinion or the opinion of any man but the opinion of the Bible hitherto accepted, held and taught by all branches of the Christian church. You will notice that these creeds affirm no theory of inspiration. They do not bind the conscience of men to the severe letter of the written word
 You will notice, however, that these creeds, all affirm that the Scriptures contain the revelation of God, that they were written by men under the inspira- tion and guidance of the Holy Spirit, that they are historically true, and that they are the authoritative rule of faith and practice. All these creeds affirm that what these Scriptures teach men ought to believe; that what these Scrip lures command men ought to do, and that what these Scriptures promise men may receive.
 There is a disposition in some quar- ters to depart from this historic faith of the church. There are some who teach that the Bible does not contain a rev elation of God, but mans conception of SyOQ, IEdL IL IS lO pc pGllCNSi oiliN oc far as it comments itself to mems req son, and that it's authority is inferior to and to be superseded by Christian consciousness; that is by a mans own idea of what is right which may be as variable a standard as there are vary ing and different consciences in individ- ual men. Before you depart from the faith oe the apostles, martyrs and saints oe all eyes to follow these new prophets you would do well to inquire whether they show unto you more excellent way"

MILLIONS OF SHAD FRY.
YORK OF TIE CONNECTICUT FISH
 con MrIISSIONERS.
Two Car Loads of Shnd Fry Received From Washington-Another Consign- ment Soon Expected.

The state fish commissioners are st, cking the retaining ponds at Josh ua Town" in North Lyme with shad fry from the national hatcheries. The Norwich Bulletin says on the subject: On Saturday the first car containing ninety-two cans holding two and a third millions of young shad arrived from Washington, and under the super vision of Commissioner James A, Bill second car with one hundred cans hold ing the same number of fry arrived, and these were placed in the ponds.
 With them was sent a government of- flcial to inspect the four retaining ponds constructed by the state at an expense of six thousand dollars. He found the water in them of exactly the same temperature as the water in the cans, the temperature in no part of the ponds varying tenth part of a degree. The commissioners are expecting one more car to arrive from Washington with shad fry, which will make the to- tai number in the retaining ponds something over six millions.
 The commissioners shave had two messengers on the road ever since March placing trout fry in the brooks of the state; the aggregate number dis tributed being about l,25O,0OO
 Commissioner Bill, who has been in the service of the state from the organi- zation of the board, has made num- Der of tests to see if fish culture is prac- tical and he has proved beyond dispute that it is. He never heard of a shad being taken from Eight Mile river, 9 tributary of the Connecticut, and six years ago he placed in that river a lot of shad fry and has since continued to stock it In the third year after it had been stocked eight hundred shad were taken there and they have been taken there in goodly numbers ever since. The fifty thousand salmon in the re- taining pond at Poquonock, Hartford county, placed there March 23, are do- ing nicely, some of them being an inch and a half long, They will be kept there a year, when it is expected that they will be seven or eight inches long. They will then be placed in the Far mington river. The salmon will then pass to the sea; and are expected to re- turn in four years, weighing from six to ten pounds. The fact that salmon re- turn has been demonstrated on the Pe- nobscot river, where the fish were tagged. Probably seventy-five per cent. returned and were caught with hook and line and with nets. Many were taken that showed, by the ap- pearance of the ventral fin, that the tag had been torn away.
 The equipments of this state for fish culture are superior to those of any other state in the union, and in fish cul- ture as in agriculture experiments, the other states look to Connecticut for inr formation and the methods of carrying it on successfully.

The Origin of the Tnmbler.

Every day we drink out of tumbler. Why is the large glass that holds our milk and water so called? Years ago Professor Max Muller was giving a to the Princess Alice, the wife of the Grand Duke of Hesse- -Darmstadt, and There were not dozen guests present besides the princess and her husband, and a very agreeable luncheon was had, with talk on all kinds of interest ing subjects. But what excited the cu- riosity of all strangers present was a set of little round bowls of silver, about the size of a large orange. They were brought round filled to the brim with the famous ale brewed in the college These, we are told, were tumblers, and we were speedily shown how they came by their names fitting lesson for the guests of a philologist When one of these little bowls was empty, it was placed upon the table mouth down. ward. Instantly so perfect was it's balance it flew back to it's proper posi- tion as if asking to be filled again No matter how it was treated-trundled along the floors, balanced upon the soft, thick carpet-up it rolled again and settled itself with a few gentle shakings and swayings into it's place, like one of those india-rubber tumbling dolls ba- bies delight in. This, then, was the or igin of our word tumbler at first made of silver. as are all these All Souls tumblers Circular

Seems as ii consumption alway

Fully one-sixth of all the deaths

would be strange if medical science

once impossible, and once it was i'm
possible to cure consumption, That
was before the time of DR., Pierce's

according to directions, this stand

THE BIRTH OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

1t will be perhaps interesting
reading to our younger readers to
know how, and just when, and who
we're the responsible parties who
issued Republicanism into the
United States. In the history of the
rise and fall of parties we find this
scrap as to the birth of the party
which has grown to such propor-
tions and which has given the south
so much trouble since the war by
class legislation and by advocating
sectional hatred. Here is the clip
ping:
The first national republican con-
vention ever held in the United
States was held in the city of Pitts
burg on the 22d and 23d days of
February, 1856. The call for this
convention was signed by the wing
governors of some half a dozen
states, and Massachusetts, New
York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan,
Illinois, New Jersey, Indiana Mary
land and Wisconsin were repre-
sented by wings, free soil demo-
carts, abolitionists, Americans, and
the peoples party, to the number
of more than one hundred, who
came together for the purpose of
organizing a national republican
party.
The state of New York was re-
presented by Horace Greely, Cover
nor John A. King, Simeon Draper,
Preston King, Philip Dorsheimer,
E. D. Morgan, A, M. Clapp and
others, not one of whom is now
living except A. NJ. Clapp, Mary
land was represented by Francis z.
Blair, Sr., it being the first public
stand which he had taken as any
thing but a democrat during long
lifetime. The Hon. Lewis Clephane,
who is still living, represented the
District of Columbia, and was very
active in the work of organization.
When scarcely nine months old the
republican organization fought its
first battle with the gallant Gen.
John c, Fremont as its captain
He carried the state of New York
by majority of $4,000, and the
free states as a whole by 114,858
plurality, but was overwhelmed in
the slaves states by plurality Of
525, ,820.

Robbed and Reaten.

number of fakirs from Mahanoy City
attended the ball in Robbins opera house
last night, among them one James Chainey
He asked Lewis Yetko the time and delib-
erately took Yetko's watch from the chain as
it was pulled out. The victimized man very
naturally protested and was punched by one
of Chainey's gang Special Officer Mike
Kane tried to make an arrest but he was
also punched. Policeman Walaitis arrived
at the scene armed with Il warrant on the
larceny charge and had to fight to get his
man. With handouts on Chainey's wrists he
dragged him out of the hall, fighting the
gang Off by swinging his billet right and left.
Justice Cardin committed Chainey in default
of $500 bail. The prisoner is still in the
lookup. He sent note to Mahanoy City
to-day, addressed to his wife, telling her he
was in trouble and asking her to come over
with money to help him out. Chainey be-
longs to a gang of card and shell game
sharpers. When searched in the lookup
only pack of playing cards could be found
on his person.

HASTINGS Is FOR QUAY.
Pennsylvania's Governor Favors the sena-

tors Presidential Candidacy.
HARRISBURG Feb. Estate Treasurer
elect Haywood returned to Harrisburg
from Washington yesterday, and when
asked concerning the interview in which
he declares that Quay will receive the
support of the Republican state leaders for
president said: Senator Quays name
will be presented to the next national
convention FOR president, and he will be
nominated and elected surely. This was
agreed upon by conference Of all the
prominent leaders in Washington last
week, and they were unanimous. Moth
Ing will change this determination.
Governor Hastings last night gave out
the following statement relative to Sena-
tor Quay's candidacy for tho presidency:
Il am for Quay If he is a candidate. Some
time ago, but since the state convention
last August Quay assured me that if 1
desired the vote of the delegation from
Pennsylvania at the next national conven-
tion he would be for me. This declined
knew there was no show for my nomina-
tion, and was not hunting for compli-
ments. Senator Quay's candidacy would
have two fold effect in PENNSYLVANIA. 1t
would reunite the party on broad and
lasting foundations, which every true Re
publican would welcome, and it would
help to dispel the idea abroad in the coun-
try that because Pennsylvania is the lead
ing Republican protection state in the
Union, and always safe, therefore she
should never have presidential candidate.
Pennsylvania constant Republicanism
should be the best argument in favor of a
Pennsylvania candidate. 1 will be for
Quay if he is willing to be candidate"

when questioned yesterday, said that the
interview made public by State Treasurer
elect Haywood placing him in the field for
president was unauthorized. He made the
positive declaration that he was not u cam
didate for the presidency, but admitted
that he had not done anything to discour-
age the movement, nor could he, to use his
own language, pre- vent the boys from vot-
ing for him If they felt so disposed, He
said very frankly that he could not expect
to secure the solid delegation.
