Selections from the Christian lector
Educatiounl Need In Our State.
Any religious or political policy,
which in its purpose, has less than the
full interest of all the people at heart,
is short sighted, and narrow, and below
the great principles embraced in
making up Christianity.
In this day of restlessness, and investigation,
when humanity is trying
to rise and more generally assert herself
as the object of divine support,
and of divine purpose, it is very hard
to keep down revolutions, and long
delay, the demands of a struggling
people.
The time was, when an Oligarchy
could sit supreme, and appropriate law
and religion to their own benefit, and
hold the masses subordinate, but the
progress of truth, as revealed in
Christ, has thrown off shackles and
humanity is obout to be free.
The duy has dawned in the history
of our Republic, when the dignity of
labor must be recognized, and when
intelligence, sanctified by truth and
virtue, must become the ruling exponent,
and the chief end be obtained in
all of our political and religious agi
I aviuus.
I am free to predict that the flay is
close at hand, when education, in obedieuce
to the great deniauds of our
"Nineteenth Century Christianity"
shall be the all absorbing topic of the
people, both in the Church and State
and when all classes will be benefited
by it.
This has not been our former policy
as a people.
We have been putting the fodder too
high in the rack for the horse to
reach.
We have been making intellectual
development too much of a secondary
thing in our gospel proclamation, and
?n mir nolitiral movements, we have
ouly provided for the educational advantages
of the few, and have left the
masses, to provide for themselves, or
mope in darkness, aud intellectual
destitution, and to be used only by
demagogues, and political tricksters, as
they may need them, to carry out
their own selfish purposes.
The above is a deplorable acknowledgement,
but it is none the less true,
and if any one doubts it, all he will
have to do is to investigate what has
been done and then look into the present
condition of our country, and
he will find the conviction of the
above truth inevitable.
If we were to yield to the old policy,!
' lot well enough alone," then we j

an ignorant rabble, and Church and |
State would both suffer in return, the!
v ciuse of their folly.
It is to be hoped that what ever may
be done by those who are to control
public affairs in our State in the near
future, that they will do something to
improve the educational advantages of J
the people at large.
The first thing that should be done!
by the next Legislature should be to[
provide liberally for the general edu-|
cation of the people.
Pass a law opening a good school in ;
every couunuuity in our State, making
provision, sufficient to keep such a
school open nine months in every |
year, and their levy an extra pole tax j
upon any parent, who may deprive;
his children of school benefits, unless
good reason can be given for the neglect.
Having gone thus far, then let the
Legislature erect a standard of schol-j
arship that can only be attained by j
those who are competent to teach, and i
then pay them out of the appropria-!
tion raised for education, good salaries, |
so as to induce competent teachers to
,/' follow teaching as a lifetime profession.
Until this Is done there had better
be less done iu providing the State |
with Universities, Citadels, and Colleges.
We need educational advantage
within the reach of the masses, |
aud to thus provide for it would!
do more for our civilization, j
and for the general prosperity of our
country, thau any thing that could be [
done.
It is a crying shame on our State, to (
have provided as she has done, for |
the University, and the Citadel, auu i
is now about to provide for an Agri-!
cultural College, when she has done so :
little for the common schools, which I
1 j
alone can reach and benefit thej
masses.
Let our people all over the State
think of this, and then keep it in view,
when they exercise their right of suffrage.

Numbers ami Wealth Temptations.
Though we cannot see how business,
could be carried on without counting!
?1, 2, 3, 4, etc., pounds, yards, gallons,
acres, dollars, &c?yet we have!
thought it would be well for the dif-i
fereut religious sects if they could not,'
or would not count the number ofj
their members or the dollar value of
their church property.
Why 60 ? Because numbers ?large j
numbers?are temptations to be proud
and bashful, particularly so with a
sect when it may out-number another
or when it out-numbers any one of the
others?largest of all.
Unless there be a corresponding
growth of grace with the increase of
numbers and wealth the temptation to
trust in the latter will bccome stronger
and stronger even as numbers aud
wealth increase.
The frequent publication of statistics
specially by the larger sects and
niUoru r\f Qinnllpr
111C UUlIJf'Ul I5?UI1 n U'li UU1VI0 VI wiiiiv.v.
numbers may savor of vanity in the
eyes of persons who set quality above
quantity. Do not the seels in Christendom,
specially those of an arrogant
and a proselyting spirit?present too
much the appearance of provoking
one another to numbers and wealth rather
than to love and good works.
When Jeshurun of old "waxed fat
he kicked," but this was no more than
others who have waxed fat on numbers
and wealth have done from Jcshurun's
time down to the present day.
If members and dollars must be counted
it should be done "with fear and
trembling" rather than with pride and
boasting. Let us quote 011 Jeshurun :
"But Jesliuruu waxed fat, and kick- ;
ed; thou art waven fat, thou art
grown thick, thou art covered with
fatnooj. flioti he fnrsnnlr CJnH which
made him, and lightly esteemed the
Rock of his salvation." Dent, xxxii:
15.
Through the provoking of Satan
and contrary to the advice of Joab (1
Chron. xxi,) nothing would satisfy
David the king but the numbering of
Israef. After Joab made the return?
"a thousand thousand and a hundred
thousaud men that drew sword"?
"God was displeased with this thing ;
therefore he smote Israel." David j
very soon conferred to God that he
had "sinned greatly" and had "done
very foolishly," anu prayed to God to ;
do away with his iniquity. The fall
by pestilence of seventy thousand .
men of Israel as a consequence of the 1
wicked and foolish order of the king
showed that it would have been very
far better for the vain-glorious king
and his innocent subjects to have remained
ignorant of the number of
warriors in the kingdom.
While there is no sin in the numbers
and wealth of religious sects, and
while it is probable that those concerned
will coutiuue to count names
and dollars there is. particularly with
large numbers and much wealth, so
pleasing, ever-preseut and strong temptation
to pride, boasting and "kicking"
that to keep clear of sin it is in- '
dispensable that the numbering and
counting and using should begin, continue
and end with the utmost fear
[caution] and trembling : caution, because
the concerned, as stewards, are
counting the Lord's property; and
trembling, because of the account to be
given in the judgment for what is
numbered and ounted.

Foolish and Irreverent Questions.
Is life worth living ? Is marriage a
failure ? are questions which so involve
impeachment of the Creator and
Savior that it seems reasonable to in+
ltof estmli nfffjrunnoe r>niil#l nritri
4V4 ViirtW Ol*VU UVVVIUUW^ VWM.?.
nate only in the heads and hearts of
foolish men. Life is what you make
it. Marriage is what married men
and women make it. As to Christianity
any person may accept it and
be saved or reject it and be lost. Moral
agents may conform to God's ordinances
and thus experience the goodness
of God for time and eternity or
they may pervert God's word and
providence to their present suffering
and future punishment.
The serious and elaborate manner
in which some men have discussed
these questions was not the proper
way to answer folly.

ing unusual preparations to entertain
the visitors.
It being within one block's distance
from Mechanic's Pavillion, the headquarters
of the Native Sons, gives
them a nice opportunity to display.
Would that every other entertainment
in San Francisco were so grand
and interesting as Gettysburg panorama,
museum and magic lantern exhibitions
are.
The above clipping appears in two
places in one newspaper of the Pacific
Methodist, Santa Rosa, California.
Whether it was published as a ready
made advertisement or as editorial
does not appear. It is found i 11 connection
with respectable reading matter.
The objection is that it should be
found anywliere in a Christian journal.
Instead of perpetuating a re
rnemberancc much less a representation
of such harharious ami bloody
scenes rather let them be hurried into
oblivion, that the eyes and minds of
the people may look and think on better
things than the horrors of a battlefield.
The museum and magic lantern
of course serve to flavor the panorama
of blood so that a greater variety
of tastes i. ly be suited. Such a
representation is forcible education
toward evil, and is made the more impressive
in that it is endorsed by a
Christian paper.

Trying to abolish or diminish the

There is only one work on the Evidences
of Christianity that wholly satisfies
any one?a work which defies
rue luosi ingenious criticism uim me
most skillful logic. It is said to be
scarce, if not indeed very scarce, but
we have met with it here and there.
It is from five to six feet of humanity
living a Chrisl-like life.
Some infidel'has said with a sneer
that the Christian heaven is a refuge
for those that have failed in this life.
The statement is half a truth. For '
those have nobly failed, because they
would not compromise their consciences
by using wicked or worldly
means of success, heaven is a refuge ;
but it is not offered to the cowards and
slothful servants who have accomplished
nothing simply because they
have not tried.
