His Career at Yale-I1is Life in New
 Haven.
 The late Rev. T. s. Potwin of Hart ford, who committed suicide Thursday while mentally deranged, as announced yesterday, was on his maternal side de- scended from Elder Brewster of the Mayfiower, and by an intermingling of two lines of Edwards blood was re- lated to Jonathan Edwards and the first Timothy Dwight, president of Yale college.
 MT. Potwin was prepared for col lege at the East Windsor academy, and completed his college course in the class of 1851. His classmates included the Rev. pr. Theodore T. Munger of New Haven, the late John W. Noble, who was secretary of the interior in the cabinet of President Harrison, and Roger Welles of this city.
 In 1854 he accepted tutorshrip at Yale in Creek At the expiration of the year continued i'll health forced him to stop work as a tutor. and he went abroad, where he remained for two yeares. He returned to East Windsor in 1858 and received his license from the East Windsor seminary to preach in the Congregational church.

For two years he was tutor in astronomy, after Prof. Olmsteads death, and assistant to Prof Porter, in logic, preaching fre- quently in the neighborhood of New Haven. He received the degree of M. A. from Yale in 1855. He leaves a mem ory that will be regarded with affection and honor by those who have known him, and by the institution of learning of which he was q graduate.

THE POST OFFICE MISSION.
BY LAURENCE H. PARKER,
(National Commission.)

There has been developed during the
past few years. an enterprise known as
the Post Office Mission" This name
is applied because of its large use of the
mails in carrying on its work. AS this
enterprise is attracting good deal of
attention it is worth while for us TO
know something about it.
First, then. what is the object of this
.'Post Office Mission?".
To interest people in the Universalist
Church through the means of printers s
ink.
All people do not attend the churches
but every one reads; we have not
churches. in all places. but the news
paper and the post office are found in
every town. Through these channels
then, we, can send our message to the
people. The work is organized as de-
partment of the Young Peoples Chris.
tian Union, and it is with the work as
carried on by the Union that this article
deals.
In the hrst place, we have the central
Office, located at the Universalist Pub
fishing House in Boston. The old say
ing, that Boston is the hub of the uni
verse;" is certainly true of the Post OF.
fee Mission. Boston is the centre from
which all lines of our work should radi-
ate, even to the farthest corners of our
land. Nor should we stop when the
great oceans are reached. Already our
literature has gone beyond their borders,
and where it shall stop rests only with
our Unioners.
Our Loan Library is located at the
central office. There are our supplies of
tracts and leaflets. To this office should
be referred. either directly or in reports
every name that is obtained and every
call for literature that is received. The
Commission. through this Office wishes

THE beginnings of evil should be
watched 1t is history that tolerated
evils assume to themselves after time
the airs and authority of rightful insti-
tutions. Racing in England is as firmly
esta ablished as Parliament: and the gam
bling that goes with it no longer excites
surprise or much comment. 1t is looked
upon as inevitable" Royalty and the
aristocracy have SO long led the way
that the turf, with all it's attendants, is
now regarded as a national institution
with which no one would be bold enough
to interfere. It's immoralities and its
baleful influence on the character OF
men and women. are undisputed. But
it is established now: and disestablish-
ment in England is slow and painful
process. So is it everywhere.
DIR. Gordon, who as yet is more
famous as the pastor of the new Old
South Church than as a preacher or
theologian, must derive some satisfac-
tion from the knowledge that his recent
volume is receiving an unusual amount
of attention from his brethren. The at
tention, to be sure, is not altogether
friendly, but it is attention, and it ad
vertises. DIR. A. III. Plumb treats it in
the Bibliotheca Sacra as an attempt to
reconstruct Christian Theology, and
finds it, as others do. somewhat too in
coherent to hold together in system.
His Characterization Of the book is at
once happy and accurate. 1t maintains,
he says, "the Trinitarian view Of the
person of Christ, the Unitarian view of
the work of Christ, and the Universalist
view of the consequences of Christ's
work." The last feature is satisfactory,
at least; though we are not prepared to
admit that "Universalism is the proper
name for DIR. Gordon's entire scheme of
thought"
Baron de Hirsch. the Jew million
aire and philanthopist, recently de-
ceased, was one of the most munifcent
givers who appears 10 the history of hu-
man benevolence. He once offered to
the Russian government fifteen millions
of dollars to establish public schools in
the empire. on the simple and equitable
condition only, that the Jews should
share equally with other races and re-
ligions in the benefits of public instruc-
tion. Whether the Russian government
could not or would not accept this mag
nifcent proposal is not known; it did
not. The Baron was so liberal in his
sympathies that he gave his millions
almost as freely for Christian as for
Jewish institutions and objects. 1t is
said to have been the death Of an only
son that turned his liberal expenditure
of money into the channels of philan.
thropy.
in his reply to the criticism of Lord
Salisbury on the theory of Natural Se-
lection, Weismann makes this curious re-
mark ut is inconceivable that Crea-
tor should designedly interfere in the
course of nature" The noticeable thing
here is the professors state of mind. He
evidently conceives of "the course of ma
ture" as something existing independ-
emily of "a Creator" The mechanical
theory of the universe, for holding which
the old theologians are often reproached,
appears in the thought OF this man Of

about them who clearly deserved no
such fate.

such fate.
To susceptible person as he
treaded the busy streets such
thought was oppressive past endur-
ance. "Twas too horriblew Not only
is this division of the amiable, the
moral, and desperate alike into two
such classes horrible, it is absurd.
Man is finite being. His moralities
and his immoralities are alike merely
relative: never absolute. To make
him therefore the arbiter of infinite
destinies is unreasonable. To say
that God offers man just one oppor-
tunity, OF moment as it were, to
secure eternal safety, and will no
more again for all eternity offer
mercy is to make God unreasonable.
1t is also contrary to mans uncon-
querable instincts which prompt
him to trust his Maker. In beautiful
contrast with such absurdities is the
doctrine of Gods universal father
hood.
This teaches that God is Being
of infinite power and benevolence.
That therefore he both can and will
bring at last to loving obedience
every soul that he has made. If it
be asked how he can save all men
without destroying their free agency
l reply that he will do it in just
the same way that he takes to save
some men by providential environ
ment and by the direct influence of
his Spirit. And why not?
If it be said that clearly some are
not converted and die unsaved, we
reply that if the soul be immortal
and if God be immutable then con-
version can take place after death
just as we'll as before. If this be
called dangerous doctrine, we reply
that if all are saved who are decreed
to be saved my doctrine cannot him
der. And if all are to be saved whom
God can save consistently with their
free agency, still my doctrine cannot
hinder.
We wish to enter here a distinct
protest against the deliberate mis-
representation of those who charge
that Universalists teach that men are
to go to heaven while yet unholy.
They teach no such thing. With
them more than with any other de-
nomination it is true that without
holiness no man shall see the Lord"
Nor do they deny future punishment
They do hold, however, that future
punishment is reformatory and hence
cannot be endless.
Universalists are those who have
grasped the great truth that man
cannot justly be made responsible
for infinite destinies except by cloth
ing him with the attributes of Deity
They see, too, that to think of God
as making immortal souls only to
lose them utterly is to rob him of
some of his infinite perfection. Uni
versalism recognizes the truth that
lies at the bottom of all theology
that man is finite while God is infin-
ite.
There is movement, deep and
strong, in all denominations toward
Universalism. If we can help in
the least degree to accelerate that
movement we shall not have written
in vain.

MASS MEETING.

The citizens of Texarkana, Al
kansas and Texas, are earnestly re-
Quested to meet with the Board of
Trade, at the office of G. A. Hays,
tomorrow Friday) night, to con-
slider a proposition from Prof ]. f.
Draughon, to establish a business
college at Texarkana.
Our people know Prof. Draugh on
and know his liberality in advertis-
ing. He formerly ran a business
college here, under disadvantages
with fifty to seventy-fve boarding
pupils, and closed it to establish a
school on a larger scale in Nashville
Tenn. This Nashville school has an
enrolment of about 600, with 300
in attendance, as many as the
school can conveniently accommo-
date, and as there are many in the
West who wish to attend his school
who cannot do so on account of the
great distance, tie Professor h; S
concluded to establish a school in
the West, and prefers Texarkana.
Our people are not asked to donate
anything as a bonus, but we have
au opportunity to secure a very
desirable enterprise, and it is hoped
that every citizen who feels an
interest iu the general welfare of
our city, will attend the meeting
tomorrow night, and lend encour-
dgement to the matter
