The Churches as Educators.
By Lady Cook.

The Review has received from Lady
Cook, nee Tennessee Claflin, of England,
the following interesting essay, with per-
mission to publish:
Systems of theology may be true or
false, but no one can be sure which are
right and which are wrong, or whether
there are any that are absolutely the one
or the other, because all these rest upon
the uncertain basis Of metaphysics. Ex-
cept in . few essentials even morality
differs from age to age. But truth IS
everlasting and invariable, whether it be
taught or not. To stturn upon the poles
of truth !" would be the attainment Of the
highest intelligence.
II is. the reprosch Of the churches and
their creeds that they are too narrow,
that they have instituted too broad asllne
of demarcation between what is religious
and what secular, revolving upon the
poles Of theology and morality instead
of those of truth. The ccnseq lences Of
this policy have been fatal to themselves,
causing innumerable divisions, variant
beliefs, and restricted influence. ii

PARKS AND PARKING.
statute Under Which Washington
Has Been Beautified.

The conference held yesterday, as noted
in The Times, between the Commissioners
and assistant District Attorney Taggart,
with respect to the setting aside of public
space for parking purposes, and the inquiry
as to the authority for such action, developed
the fact that there has never been but
one enactment upon that subject, and that
about twenty years ago, the law being
passed at the instance of yor Bowen, re-
Gently deceased.
1t is found in the revised statutes as ap-
plying to the District, and is as follows:
The proper authorities of the District
are authorized to set apart from time to
time, as parks, to be adorned with shade
trees, walks, and inclosed with curb
stones, not exceeding one-half the width
of any and all avenues and streets in the
city of Washington, leaving q roadway of
not less than twenty-five feet in width in
the center of said avenues and streets or
two such roadways, ON each side of the
park i'll the center OF the same; but sucn
Enclosures shall not be used for private pur-
poses"
There is no other authority, and under il
the parkings, now so beautiful to vie W, Were
laid out and improved The first action
taken under the law was in the laying out
of parks on X street, between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets, anG between Four
| teenth and Fifteenth streets, but these have
since been oblitcrated by improvements
and changes ordered by the board OF public
works
The law is regarded a 5 one OF the most
bnneficent of those handed down from th.,
old District municipalities.
