The 90 FOOters.

The report showing that the new de-
fender will be ready for her trial spin
early next May gladdens the hearts Of
watermen and their compatriots ashore.
The coming boat is to have two trial
horses, Columbia and Constitution and
the programme arranged by the New
York Yacht Club includes ten races be-
tween this unprecedented trio before the
club cruise and the trial races.
Many yachtsmen, like their half
brothers. the fishermen. count the dull
winter months and wish that time would
take an additional burst of speed. They
would send off the winter months one
after another with kick, and they
would anchor the summer months in
port and keep them anchored for an in
definite period. But time trots at his
own gait, and even yachts on the star
board tack must give way TO him. Four
dreary months and one whimsical one
must 60 by before the gun is fired

Union with Rome, he pronounced the
baseless fabric Of dream" No one Of
our school," says Bishop GRAFTON also,
desires a change of name as an APP

II will be seen that Christian unity"
idea which underlies all these discus
sions, yet it Is n scheme Of unity which
excludes the great ma jority of Christen-
dom. The argument that by calling the
Episcopal Church the Catholic Church
in the United States the separated di-
visions Of Protestantism would be drawn
into its fold az n common home is not
supported by any past expression of The
sentiment of those bodies: and even il
the new name should be adopted. prac-
tically the old would be retained in gen.
eral use for necessary distinction of that
Church from the Roman Catholic.
Christian unity or reunion which
in Christendom might tend to infame
angry passion and provoke bitter con-
troversy and competition rather than to
promote brotherly fellowship and gentle
harmony in the Christian family The
unity of Protestantisn against Roman
Catholicism, by whatever name it was
called, might introduce frebrand in
stead of an olive branch into the now
comparatively peaceful Christendom.
Nor does it seem possible that Protes-
tantism can express its very genius
otherwise than in the divisions which
varying conceptions OF the Divine law
and truth have produced. Is not the
glory of Professionalism in the liberty
of conscience which makes unity i'm
possible?
