New Ensland's Fading Faith Rebuked.

Most Of the New England States still
keep I'd the old colonial custom Of OBJ
serving day Of fasting. humiliation, and
prayer" in the springtime, just before the
planting season begins. But the obserV-
ance long ago ceased to be general 1t Is
marked rather by festivities that would
have shocked the Puritans than by fast
ing or any special humiliation or an extra
outT curing Of suppIioation- In his recent
IN issued fastday proclamation, Gov ko!-
!ins, of New Hampshire, produced an IN
pleasant sensation smong religious people
in his section by declaring that the decline
o. the Christian religion, particularly in
our rural communities, is marked feature
of the times" and he goes on 20 say thal
"tbere are towns where no church bell
sends forth its solemn call from January
to January, there are villages where chill
dren grow to manhood unchristened'
and there are communities where the
dead are laid away without tho benson
Of the name of Christ and where mar
riages are solemnized only by Justices Of
the Peace"
The Atlanta Constitution lays hold on
these damaging admissions. and from
that sublime height of boundlese faith
where it stands side by side with Dwight
l.. Moody proceeds TO larrup the New
England Yankees for their surplus of
culture" and their alleged decadence in
religion. This culture" the Constitution
charges, has come TO be "a substitute in
many minds for faith, grace, and even
virtue itself" Out of this baneful thing
grows the higher criticism" and that is
the prolific source of numberless abomi-
nations,
But the thing that most excites the ire
of our pious Atlanta contemporary Is the
growing disinclination in the New Eng
land mind to accept the account Of Jonah
and the whale as literal truth. 1t IS true
that Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott ana many
other eminent divines of great learning
and piety confirm the New England the
DRY on this subject; but good Brother
Moody stands with the Constitution, and
if the old fight should be opened at North
field this summer, the great evangelist
will find our contemporary a robust
helper in time of need.

IN THE PRESIDENTS HANDS.
Lieut.. Lang's Friends Make an Appeal for
Executive CIemency.

The President now has under cOnsid-
Grafton the case Of Lieut.. Lang, recently
tried before court martial on a charge
arising from his alleged conduct in living
at a clearinghouse in this city with a
woman not his wife The court was or
dered by Gen. Merritt, commanding De
partment Of the East, to which Lieut..
Lang was attached. The record of the
proceedings was placed in Gen. Merritus
hands Friday and by him was transmitted
TO the Secretary of War for action by the
President. Since then the record has
been reviewed and reported upon by Judge
Advocate General Lieber, Mai. Gen. Miles.
commanding the army, and the Secretary
of War
Lieut. Langs friends will probably make
a strong appeal 10 the President. While
the verdict of the court is not definitely
known, 1t is probable from the manner
in which report was made that It was
for conviction. The accused officer
friends claim that he has all along been
prosecuted in army circles because he
married the daughter If an enlisted man.
AS Lieut.. Lang is from Ohio, and has
many prominent champions who youch
for him, ii is possible that the President
will look very closely into the case be
fore he would favor a dismissal from the
army

WORK IN WIRELESS TELgGRAPRY.
Experiments Going on, but Information
Withheld at Present.

Extensive experiments with wireless
telegraphy are being conducted by the
Signal Corps. Of which Gen. Greedy is
chief. Several officers and engineers of
the department are devoting practically
all their time to work in this line, and
it is hoped by some that very satisfactory
results will be attained. If this should
be the case the work would be pushed on
at once to wider fields
The officers of the department have re-
ceived explicit orders not to give out in
formation as to the progress of their ex-
periments. This, one of the superiors
explained yesterday. was not because Of
any secrecy connected with the matter
but because, In the present stage of pro-
ceedlngs, no one could tell whether or not
anything would be accomplished The
officer remarked that perhaps the Signal
Corps might soon send messages to Fort
Myer without wire. and perhaps only as
far as the Washington Monument. but
the Signal Corps had as yet but begun the
experiments, and could not prophesy even
as to the probability Of results.

Mr.. PORTER HAS NOT RESIGNED.
The Presidents Secretary Is Only Taking
Short Rest.

1t is stated on good authority that the
report that the Presidents Secretary. Mr.
John Addison Porter, has resigned, is I'M
true. The only ground for such a rumor
is probably in the fact that Mr. Porter's
health has been somewhat broken by the
strain which his duties impose on him
He has endeavored to make matters as
easy as possible for the President. and
has increased his own work beyond the
limit OF his strength.
As 10 the story that there has been dis
satisfaction with his services. that also
is entirely an error The Executive has
been more than pleased with the con-
scientious zeal of his Secretary. and
deems him an Invaluable assistant The
speculation as TO what mission Mr.. Por-
ter Will be offered upon giving up his
present duties is therefore idle. He Will
remain IN his present position unless his
health suffers a complete breakdown.
That is not probable, as Mr. Porter has
a fine constitution. and his rest at pres
ent will give him a chance 10 recupera e
fully.
