ton. The result is the absence of at.
fectionate, personal tuition in righteous.
ness, and the dangerous impression that
character is of subordinate value and al
best but useful commodity. Then sud.
denly temptation comes with its dis.
guised attack on a moral constitution
frail from neglect and enfeebled from
habitual exposure, and the promising
young life, MANNED and distressed, must
be reformed.
The essential element in all such cases
has been ignored-the one element vital
to character and happiness-the religion
of the Bible. Not that State reformato
ries or training schools should be made
responsible for religious education; but
philanthropists should have discovered
long ago that endowments for the better
ment of any class should make promt
nent the fundamental value Of spiritual
culture. Secular training proposes to
furnish the best that man can give. Re
ligion brings divine principles and ener
gies into the life. Acceptance Of the
faith that is in Christ Jesus places soul
in the keeping Of Omnipotence and en-
velopes it in an atmosphere of infinite
personal love and imparts to it life
that is kindred to the divine; renewed
after the image Of Him that created
him" and nourished from the eternal
Fountain of Life.

it is his duty to care, by so much is

1t is his duty to care, by so much is
he less fitted to discharge his ministe-
rial duties.
1t has been sometimes said, and just
ly said, that a congregation gets as
much of minister as they pay for.
If the support be inadequate, his at
tention is diverted, his thoughts are
occupied, his heart depressed. Some
part of his time and effort must be
given to meet the deficiency. BY so
much has his condition detracted from
his devotion to his ministerial service.
No matter how real and strong are his
conservation and fidelity he is less the
student and the preacher and the pas
tor than he wishes to be. So the prin-
ciple finds its frequent illustration
that a congregation gets so much of
their minister as they render to him a
support, and as it is cheerfully and
punctually paid.
There are some things of which
church sessions should take knowledge
in their consideration of this matter.
The minister cannot turn aside, as
other men, to secular work, and take
up work in farming or teaching or me-
chanics, without serious loss to minis
terial character and usefulness. OF
all men in the community, he must the
most anxiously guard against debt,
which he cannot reasonably hope to
pay. He has some wants that are ur-
gent which other men do not have, as
books and other literature; and he
must give more constantly than other
men give. The insuficiency Of support,
with the cares and anxieties it brings
is just that which makes the minister
restless, and unsettles many a useful
pastorate. We will remember that the
bidding of God to His servant is that
he ''give himself wholly to his minis
try" and of the support of the pastor
it is said 'the laborer is worthy of his
hire"

THE SALARIES OF THE PASTORS.

The resolution adopted by the Vir-
ginia Synod asking consideration by
presbyteries and sessions as to raising
pastors salaries goes out this week.
The circular note Of the stated clerk
has been addressed to the clerks or
the Church sessions, so far as names
and addresses could be secured. The
ground of the especial consideration
now requested is the present high cost
of living. This high cost of all things
that are necessary to the well-being
and comfort of the minister and his
family prevails throughout the land,
and has brought increased wages in al
most every department of labor. The
classes of men and women who live on
salaries are those most seriously affect
ed by high prices and by the prosperity
of the country.
We have no doubt that the Church
sessions throughout the Synod of Vir-
ginia will receive the request of the
Synod with due respect and will give
it fair, intelligent and sympathetic
consideration. The action was propos-
ed, not by minister, but by one of the
ruling elders, who has given some care
full attention to the matter. We do
not suppose it would ever have been
proposed by one of the pastors. Our
elders and deacons are the men who
must take it up for consideration, and
for action if they deem it just and wise.
The consideration by sessions VIII OF
course not be a public matter, but in
private 1t will be remembered that by
terms of the call, prescribed by the
Book Of Church Order, adopted by the
Church and approved by the Presbytery,
such salary was promised as would
make the pastor free from worldly
cares and avocations." 1t is supposed
by the constitution of our Church that
that is a condition which is necessary
to the pastors giving himself wholly
to his ministry. If he be burdened by
his wants, and diverted and troubled
by anMeties as to his support and the

Former County Judge Shields has writ
ten letter to the county commissioners
denying he owes the county anything for
fees earned while he was in once and
not collected, and says II he did owe any
thing he is protected by the statute of
limitations. The letter was read at the
meeting of the commissioners Thursday
morning and referred to the committee
having the fee matter in charge.
Judge Shields declares In the letter he
is not responsible to the county for a
penny. He says he made quarterly re-
ports to the county clerk paid all money
due the county to the treasurer and car
ried out all the provisions of the law
and the orders OF the commissioners in
making collections. He cites four specific
reasons why he does not owe the county
anything. First, he says there are no fees
uncollected which could have been col
lected. Secondly, he declares he had no
power to collect by execution, as he could
not force the constable or sheriff 10 serve
the papers without paying him In advance
and he had no authority to do this. In the
third place he says there was no negli-
gence or failure to do his duty on his
part and finally, II he did owe the county
anything while in office the statute of
limitations has operated to cancel the
obligation TO pay. The letter was in re-
