Wl subjoin out answer that all
may know what we wrote to our
young brother, fresh from the Semi

is neither a professor nor a pastor;
and who probably on that aocouut
is so anxious to step into onr shoes,
and sit in our seat. My young
brother, have bnt a little patience.
The Senior Editor is advanced in

of time in yonr way. The proba
bility is that yon, before many years
—yearst it may be days!—will be
able to rejoice, because you knee
found work for sour printing press !
The answer: “We have contracted
for the publication of Vol. 3 of the
Lutheran Visitor with the printer of
Vol. 2. Caa therefore entertain no

is published for the building up of
the Church and the extension of the

of the editors are to make it a ealu

by the coufossora at Jerusalem, at
Antioch, at Augsburg, and wherever
there are churches of the Confession

Editorial Picking*.
Circus Outrage. The Abbeville
Press says; “We learn that the
*bill posters’ of GoL C. T. Ames*
circus, had so far the hardihood and
indecorous disregard of the religious
sentiment of the community, as to
poet his show bills upon ‘Ebeucsrr
church,’ a Methodist church some
five miles east of Abbeville.* Legal
steps to obtain redress would. have
been taken, we learn, but for some
defect in the title. These circus
men, some of them, neither fear God
nor regard man. They arc a sort
of gypsies, half-civilized Arabs who
verify the curse of Islunael, ‘Their
hand is against every man,, and
every maq’s baud is against them.’ 9
Bat if the newspapers puff and
post these sacriligious vagrants on
minds and hearts of the people,
where is the peculiar outrage in
posting on a church ? A show bill
on; a church or in a decent paper
looks as well as a church member or
a decent person in a circus.—ChrU
tain Neighbor. ,
Amusing and Instructive.—A stingy
Churchman was listening to a mis
sionary' sermon. , He was nearly
deaf, and was accustomed to sit
facing the congregation, right uo
der the pulpit, with his ear-trum
pet directed upwards, towards the
preacher. The sermon moved him
considerably. At one time lie said
to himself: “I’ll give ten dollars;”
and again he 8aid,.“Fll give fifteen.”
At the close of this appeal, he was
very much moved, and thought he
would give fifty dollars. Now, the
boxes were passed. As they moved
along, his charity began to ooze out.
Be came down from fifty to twenty,
to ten, to five, to zero. He con
eluded that he would not give any
thing. “YetfZ said he, “this won’t
do—I am in a bad fix. My hopes
of heaven may be in this question.
This covetousness will be my rain.”
The boxes were getting nearer and
nearer. The crisis was upon him.
What should he do 1 The box was
now under his chin—all the congre
gation were looking. He had been
holding his pocket-book in his hand
during this soliloquy which was half
andible, though in his deafness he
did not know that he was heard.
In, the agony of the final moment,
he took his pocketrbook and laid it
in the box, saying tq himself as he
did it, “Now squirm, old natur!”
This was a victory beyond any that
er ever won—a victory over
Here is a key to the problem
of covetousness. , ‘Old natur” must
go under. It will take great giving
to, pat stinginess down. A few ex
peri meats of putting in the whole
pocket-book may, by aud by, get the
heart into the charity box, and then
the cure is reached. All honor to
t the deaf old gentleman. He did a

day, this mouth.
Fa* bn tumble 1‘raise*.—An editer nf
the Pacific Churchman lately offi
ciated for one Sunday at Grace
church, Sacramento, hi the absence
of the Rector. In the next edition
of his i>aper he remarks: “At the
risk of being considered impertinent,
we can not help making one safgea-
tion, and that U, that some one make
a raid npon the choir gallery, and
burn up clean all the annuo which
can txv.fimad there; for, unions our
ears greatly deceived na, there is a
good deal of the nonsense kind on
hand.”
Not U<>o,l that the Man should be
Alone.—The Earl of Shaftesbury, in
sh aking recently of the evils arising
from the celibacy of the Komau Gath-'
olic clergy, said: “If his holiness
the Poj>e had a wife, she wonld not:
allow him for an honr to remain in
the liclief that he was infallible.”
One Point Settled Amyho a*.—Au
Irish lady at Troy, teacher in one
of the public schools, tortured a class
of young girl* by niHltlenly inquiring
if they could tell the name of the
first woman. One of the little ones,
more forward than the rest, advanced
to the front of the class, and replied:
“Well, we don’t know, Ma’am, what
her name was; but, any way, she
wasn’t Irish.”
Tie Coming Woman Found.—An
English woman finding berartf uua
We to whip her husband, shouted to
her son, who was up stairs in bed:
••Bill! couie down stairs and lick
tlii feyther, or else hell be tit’ main
ter o’ the whole house.” Mho was
evidently in advance of the age «>n
the Woman question.
Herman Patriotism.—A scene in a
commercial city three days after war
was declared. A train has juac
arrived, anti young men in traveling
garb are hastening in all directions
from the depot. One of them is met
by the open arms of a friend with
the salute,
“Where are you from T”
••Direct from England : where ik
my regiment, has it guue yet T
“No, it is just assembling.”
••Thank God that I have arri

just in from Italy, where he has
a brilliant and profitable com
position, cosies by, inquiring
his batallion. Without waiting the
order that should bid him come, lie
travels night and day from a
land that he may take hi*

October 28th to November 21*t in

About Church Choirs.—The Presty
terian Banner relieves itself on this
topic in the following manner:
“Every day brings complaint* cff
the choir nuisance in onr churches.
Dr. Bellows said some time ago that
it would be a great relief if the Uub
tarian ministers could be allowed tli*
privilege of throwing the hymn book
at the choir. If the evil* complain Al
of continue much longer, this liber tv
will be desired by more than Cnitml
rian preachers. For the most i«ut,
the choir is superior to the im*tor,
session, trustees, and the whole con
gregution. It is about the only frup,
Independent, and irreaponsible thing
connected with church machinery.”
A war aoane in Leipaio: Time,
ten o’clock at night: Place, the rit.
Thomas church. A dim light ,is
burning iu the Chapel at this u>o*t
unaccustomed hour. The deeply-
moved voice of the preacher ia heard,
interrupted by sobbing and weeping.
It is a wedding, bat without other
witues.se* than the portico concerned.
The bride is without ornament, and
the groom is in tho uniform of ths
soldier. In the first pew sits an old
lady with her head buried iu in r
hands, and weeping bitterly. The
two seal a bond of eternal union at
the moment when his country calls
the - Idler from his bride. The eete-
mony is finished, and between weep
ing mother aud wife, the young man
hastens to the depot to join his regi
ment, now on tho point of leaving,
and there the painful separation mu*t
soon be effected. Over fifty of sui
scenes occurred ip the course of fi
few dpys in Leipsfo, and the clergy
held themselves ready at all boom,
day .or night, for such calls, th
from a score of little preliminaries
otherwise usual. The difforeuoe of
faith was forgotten iu this solemn
moment, and there were actually

It precludes freedom. Tire Kor. J.
Atkinson, who MU took tire floor,,
held that a church organ ueods to j
represent tire ohnrch in all tire pha
ses of its progress and work, giving
id news which relate to the
church, without reference to their
buartng upon any man’s notions or
) an organ which shall not
simply be the mouthpiece of edite>
rial opinion or irefoudtee, but the
free, faithful, impartial organ of foe
opinions and the news of tire church.
Such an organ, he affirmed, the de
nomination did not posoese. He re
lated a foci ia regard to a Methodist
minister in New Jersey who, winking
to make a communication of foots to
Methodist people, sent a copy of his
communication to the Christian Ad
vocate, the church’s own paper, an
other to the Methodist, a private
concern, and another to * Newark
daily. It appeared as desired in the
two latter papers, but in the former,
the church organ, it never made its
appearance. At this point the Rev.
Mr., Dobbins stopped the speaker
with a call to order. A fierce storm
ensued. “There wag stamping of
feet, a tumult of feeling, and amid
the disorder the speaker sat down.
