AUGUSTINE, BISHOP OF HIPPO.

The Confessions Of Augustine, as rem
derod into English by DR., Pussy, with
am Introduction by II. G. Beechlng,
Canon OF Westminster, has just been
published by II, NJ. Caldwell CO.. Bos-
ton and New York, 1t Is part OF a series
Of publications known as The Red Let
ter Library, II Is a handsome little
book that in lis American makeup
should be welcome 10 American read
ers. and especially students Of theology.
ST. Augustine was, without doubt, the
greatest Of the so-called Latin fathers.
He was born In Africa IN the year 35i.
Though his mother was a deyout Chris
tian, Augustine ala not embrace that
faith until he was thirty-two years OF
age, a conclusive proof, by the way.
that az his time the western church
had not yet made infant sprinklIng a
general ordinance. During his youth
and earliest life he gave way to the
temptations Of his age and fell into
the low depths Of immortality. While IN
Carthage he embraced to some extent
the views Of the so-called M%anichaeans,
who taught the existence from all eter-
nifty OF two principles, one OF good and
one Of evil--a doctrine that seemed to
him az the time to best explain the
conflict raging within him between
good aud evil, each in turn claiming
the victory In his soul. Later he went
to Rome. against the wishes OF his be-
loved mother AZ Milan he was con-
yerted and Joined the church, About
the year 3a5 he was appointed bishop
at Hippo, and he held that office for
IS years, or until his death.
The great work Of Augustine consist
ed In the fight against the so-called
heretics Of his age. Among these were
the Ma|nichaeans, already referred 10.
and the Donatists who denied pardon
and fellowship to apostates, There were
also the PelagIans who taught that the
sin Of Adam did not affect his posterity
and that, consequently each human be-
ing Is born with powers as lncorrupt as
those Of Adam. They also held that
children, dying In infancy are saved
without baptism.
Such were some Of the tendencies Of
the age in which Augustine lived, and

Professor j. b. Keller Of the Brigham
Young University mas compiled a most
valuable work on the Lesser Priesthood
and the order Of Church Government,
which Is fortified by copious references
to the Church standards, It was orig
Inally designed for class work IN the
university, but has been enlarged and
adapted Tor use in the quorums Of the
Priesthood, and all organizations In
which a systematic study of the sub
jccts mentioned IS desirable. We cor
daily commend this work to our people
everywhere, and consider It a necessary
volume to make complete either q pub
lie or private Latter-day Saints library.
We congratulate Elder Keller on his
able researches and his splendid sue
cess, The work is published at the Of
flee Of the Deseret News.

Cleveland Plain Dealer

The visit to the United states Of the
archbishop OF Canterbury is an event
interesting for sentimental rather than
political or ecclesiastical reasons. He
comes without special mission to this
country, or indeed to the Protestant
Episcopal church, although the visit
may give rise to conjecture about plans
for closer relations between the church
here and In England. Episcopalianism.
while In creed and forms similar to the
church Of England, lacks the latter's
essential feature In connection with the
state, While the Anglican bishops have
seats In the house OF lords there Is In
this country no need Of churchmen who
must also be statesmen. The prlmate's
visit can hardly do more than bear
witness 70 the spiritual accord between
the Anglican church and It's American
offshoot.
