RELIGIOUS EDITORIALS FOR
SUNDAY.

Some o. the northern secular papers
think there is an immense drifting
from the old religious landmarks and
that leaders of religious thought are
creating a positive revolution" in the
Ology. They see the attacks are from
within and not from without, and they
strike at fundamentals-at the old be-
liefs of the church, and are digging
away to undermine and destroy. The
attentive readers of The Messenger
will bear witness that for years we
have criticised these learned assaults
by captious unbelievers within the
church. We have uniformly referred
to them as sappers and miners for
years. Of course they have not passed
unchallenged. The able, learned, loyal
members of Christine faithful, sleep
less sentinels on the watchtowers of
Christianity lave seen the foes n re-
sisted their cunning concentrated at
tacks upon the very citadel of truth.
The New York Tribune of the 18th edi-
torially noticing these speculative and
critical drifts from the standards and
the old religious belief says:
But the significant feature Of the
situation today is the change of atti-
tude and belief within the orthodox
churches themselves. Against this
new form of assault On the Did theolo-
gy the weapon of the champions of re-
ligion are of little avail; for they were
forged in order to do service against
unbelievers from without A new sit
uation has risen that calls for a new
method Of warfare. Men within the
pale of all the churches who call them
selves loyal believers, and who thus far
lave been able to hold their place
within the ranks of orthodoxy, are re-
| pudiating many Of the beliefs on which
orthodoxy rests. These dissidents
point to the fact that they have al
ready fastened many of their views on
the church, and declare that in the not
| distanct future they will succeed in re-
! casting the whole theological system
Of the church. This is the issue that

expressed substantially the same feel
ing. We may add that Thackeray,
who knew what constituted greatness,
held Tennyson in h highest estimate
and said that he was the wisest man
he ever met. This is not the place to
discuss Tennyson at length, for already
in editorials we have several times
given views Of him. Nj. Mabie refers
to his rich musical style, and to the
perfection OF form to which he at
tanned. He says that Poe had a mag
lea command of sound but that Tenny-
son had the same magic with a far
wider knowledge OF the potencies and
mysteries of words. 1t is not surpris-
ing to learn that the great laureate had
not only a proper insight but an ex-
ceeding high admiration of Keats, and
appreciated not only the wonderful
beauty of that great poets works but
also it's spiritual quality. Tennyson is
quoted as saying Tin the biography
that Keats" with his high spiritual vi
sion, woul nave been, if he had lived,
the greatest of US all, (though his blank
verse was poor and there is something
Of magic and of the inermost soul
Of poetry in almost everything he
wrote. we suppose the biography is
specially interesting in its revelation of
the religious views of the great poet.
His belief in immortality the esasyist
says was rooted so deep in all his
thinking that he refused to qualify or
limit it in any way" He did not believe
in everlasting punishment u he did
believe in the atoning work Of the
Saviour. To a young man going to a
university he said THE love Of God is
the true basis Of duty, truth reverence,
loyalty, love, virtue and work." The
poet requested his son that his poem
written in his eighty first year of SO re-
markable inspiration and so well
known now, Crossing the Bar" should
be printed at the end of all editions Of
his work. Mr.. Mabie say we'll TT will
stand therefore in it's beautiful sim
plicity and truthfulness as his final
confessions Of his faith. Mr.. Mabie
says at the close of his fine paper Gin
the long history Of English literature,
there is no picture of old age more
beautiful and satisfying than that
which appears in this biography-an
old age rich in fame and honor but
richer still in the f~ulflments, and
f%ruition of a life long devotion to the
highest ends of art, an age free from
envy, generous in appreciation, fresh
in feeling and moving steadily forward
in the larger and clearer vision Of
TRUTH One more quotation, when all
has been said about the beauty and
significance of Tennyson's work, it
may be seen that his finest contribu-
tons to civilization was, not his poetry,
but his life" This was rapidly dicta-
ted by one not practiced in that work.
