to listen to the good, gray poet Walt
Whitman, on city growth and excellence:
The place where the great city stands
is not the place Of stretched Wharfs,
docks, manufactures. deposits and prod

Nor the place OF. ceaseless salutes of
newcomers or. the anchor filters of the
departing.
Nor the place of the most numerous

A preacher at. Coventry. England, says
that '.the New Testament, being the
gospel to mankind, which has largely
superseded the Hebrew prophets, should
now be presented before the Old Tesla
ment." Accordingly he has had large
number of bibles bound with the New
Testament standing before the Old Tesla
mert. This is certainly not the historf-
cal order and in this age much is made,
especially among railroads.&c. writer's, of

text.
