Hut. tins I confcKs unto tbod, thnt after tlie way which they call heresy, so worship I tlic 0ml of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law anil in the prophets : ami have hope toward (?od, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. And herein do I excrciso myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward Cud, and toward men." ^ ' 1 ' The writer's opinion of Dr. Woodrow's "Evolution" has been given. It is the privilege usually accorded to every one whose opinions are challenged. Hint he be allowed to dejiiic his position, hut in Dr. Woodrow's cast; his Critics, refusing to allow him the privilege of defining his position, arc con-1 tinually him a position of' Ihoir own devising. Why this peculiarity ? Is it bepaQse ProtY^soiY.jy^M"* ; row, in his own-cliwen position, ipantii'r- . lively soon to be unassailable ? First lie is assailed 011 (lie ground tliat I10 is unscicntijlc, then ho is almost charged with being an utter it/nontuiwft. then, Ihnt he is a heretic ; and if any reasons :iro given for eithor of these criticisms, Ihey are either drawn from an almost unpardonable misconception of tlie teachings of his Address, or merely based upon the ground that I)r. Woodrow's views 011 Scientific matters are not those entertained by his critic, which is :>f course a mere begging of the question. In our humble judgment, so lonj is l)r. Woodrow is allowed the benefit ?f being judged, not for what he has not said, but for what he has said explicitly ;>r implicitly, so long will he bo able both on Scientific and 011 Biblical jrounds to sustain himself successfully igaiusl the charge of heresy. What IV > "Vol.1 1 aither hurtful ov clangorous in Professor Woodrow to maintain ami tench before bis classes, and hpforo the world, that this same law applies to the Bible in re lation to this Natural Science question of Evolution ? If the Church has en; ilorsed Professor Woodrow in the application of this law to the jliblu ant) Science for the past twenty-five yenrs, how ertn she consistently now reject this law, und envt him out as a liGretic, or reject his teachings as of heretical tundency, because, forsooth,, he proposes to do in th^Tilfurc, what ho has done, with her Approbation, in the past, viz, : teach that ' between thtv Hible and Science there is no contradiction ? Still it may bo*said (Ats been said,) granting that Professor \Voodrow is no heretic, and grunting that heresy is not logically implioatud in his teachings. tliqy will, novertlrpless j?*oduce heresy in the minds of his students. Tty their fruits yo shall know them.

V r ' IV . ?IVI 4 ilUllllll^ lllt'lC" lore ought to, bo considered- by any ourt as an oHoir<:6.- or admitted as a ' mattor of accusation, which cannot he proved to bo such from Sciipturc, as in'.ernretcd in .these standards." linlos ?T} Discipline, chapter iii. Heresy . therefore must be the denial of some loctrine formulated in our Confession, >r the affirmation of some doctrine contradictory of those formulated there. Applying this test to Dr. Woodrow's news, 1 ask mykelf?What'doctrine of ths Confession (.or of the Bible) does Prof. Woodrow deny or what doctrine loes tbc address contradict? Is it that (iod is Creator of all things?Adam ^ ncluded ? that lie created Adam of the the "dust of the ground that lie differentiated him from all other animals by tho gift of an immortal spirit? that lie constituted him the federal head and ' representative of his race ? that Adam s the lirst father of the human race? , that the IJible is the very inspired word ^ af (iod absolutely true in every.respget ? ( that it is the only and the infallible rule ( >f faith and practice ? So far from de- ( lying or contradicting these points, he s known explicitly to assert, maintain, ind defend them. i But it may bo said, that granting he liniself is not a "heretic," yet his sci- ; intiUe views as nut forih in !ii? Aililn>u? ire (Imiffcroiis?th&v ten<L to. heuusy.I >n tlie contrary, rttf-d HVM * Hot hCurltl? to r confess thai the Cdut.iou which ho gives, est the Church repeat the follies , jf the past iu reference,,to .Geography, Astronomy, and (ic<tto$yV m wi"' by of our profoundest attention ? Is it true that Evolution is a Scientific ( juestion like. Geography, Astronomy, ind|Hjeolo?y ? is it true that the Iiible loes not tench Natural . cience a I (ill on ' iiiy point ? is it true, that so far, in reference to questions of asserted conllict. :hc result has been, by general consent, that, while the liible does not hannoni/.e 1 ivith Science, yet it is not contradicted l>y Science?that the true relation is tjiat of wosi-coutrodiction ? Are these . things so? then how can it be 1 who has gone astray on the suhjec Science and Revelation ? Surely has had the material, the opportu and the tiniejj if ihorc hud been least germ of heresy in his teaching the smallest conceivable vitality in germ, surely by this time we must I had amongst at least one of his stud a full-blown heretic evolved. We confidently appeal to these J'nctn in history of his students as 9 <!e))ioi(s (ion of the groundlessness not oul the churi/e, but of the J'cur that lie can result from l)r. "Woodrow's tei '"g*- * .. . . . Thirty years ago, wise men said, " ence is not to be denounced as inful she does contradict the popular langi used in Scripture.

Now, what will you do with 3 Seminary student, tormented daily > these questions which demand soluti Will ho go to the Professor of ttai Rhetoric ? Or Hebrew and Greek ox sis ?

Will you sneer at Go gy as "an unproved hypothesis ? student will-smile at your igri&rnnce, prohablj' begin to doubt your .con tency to teach your own branch. A you denounce Evolution as nothing Atheism, and exhort the student to st his Bible and let infidel science alo The student may bo silenced, but will bo far from satisfied. Suppose say to him, Evolution'must be falso ; it contradicts (1) the existence of ( (2) the immortality of man, and (3) federal headship of ,Adaro. Sup] the stifdent should task, Hbw do*] prove that Evolution contradicts tl fundamentals ? Do you think could tlb it wjthout begging tho q tion ? Manifestly, therefore, if our stud are to be thoroui^ly equipped for t groat life work, if they .aro to bo enc aired in n faithful mrnuiinpniinn ?r ' r, VCV-, V. truth, if thoy'aro to be tnught that once has nothing to fear from the Bi and tliat the Bible has nothing to from the" purest.light of Science,* I we need in our Seminary just such n as Dr. Wqodrow, abl'j in- 'Science loss able in Biblical exegesis, thoroi ly posted in everything portainin the studies of hia department* It seems clear, therefore, that "connection between Kciouce nnd II lation," has reached such proporti and ip of suoh vast importance,' thi imperatively claims to bo recogniao* ' * * ' ' * . l'-V ' - V ' t of one great and distinct "department'' of he study in a Theological Seminary. It is nity indispensable ; its teachings cannot be the relegated to the professors in other de, or partments. There is, therefore, for the that continuation of the "I'erkin's I'rofessormve ship"' an unavoidable necessity. ents There seems to be a misapprehension can in the minds of some as to the extent thejtjp which Professor Wood row docx teach f.ra- -Natural Science in the Seminary, and in y of the minds of others as to the extent to resy which he should tench it. Now the iich- word "connection'' in the tille of his chair, accurately marks out both the Sci- "extent" and the "limit" of his duties, el if Generally his chair is apologetic; spent ge citically it is apologetic of the Bible ; and irt n that in a single "connection," viz.: that s of of alleged Scicnlijic assaults. Ilis sit}- teachings of Science then, must extend is a to the fulT scope of this connection, anil lied where this connection ceases, i. v. where that there is no allegation of an offensive atay ? titude on the part of Natural Science, >up- hero he must find his limit. Ho is set suit for the defence of the Ilible against sooiir called attacks from Science. His eye > do mn.st therefore range over the whole of field of. science ; wherever he hears the the sound of the enemy's guns, there he infi- must go, and there prepare his defences. All. however, must he subordinate to the the prime object?the defence of the may Ilible. Hence he must inquire in the livid first place, Is Science at -war with the irth, llible ? In the second place, if there is ittle war between these two?Where is the his enemy located ? cap- Dr. Woodrow's principles lead him to ?oril answer the first question by saying: stall' There is not now, never has been, and his never can be any real war between the out Bible ami Science, /. <?., between the , friic interpretation of God's thoughts ?mi- :is recorded in Nature, and the (rati invith terprclafatiuH of liod's thoughts as reroin corded in the Bible. Ilenee from this ?ges point of view, I'rof. \V. does not need to aijd study the second question.

" Jj Nkw Yokk, October 7.? In response J| i) the resolutions presented to liim from ig|g lie National Democratic (Convention, iatnuel .J. Tilden has written the folowing letter: 0 it a vstox k, October Oth, 1884.? Mr. Chairman and Cientleim n of the Ooinnittec;: I thank you for the kind terms it which you have communicated the csolutions concerning; me adopted by lie late Democratic National Convenion. I share your conviction that ret)rm in the administration of the Federral (ioverninent, which is our great atioual want and is indeed essential to he restoration and preservation of the overnment itself, can only be achievod hrough the agency of the Democratic arty and by installing its ropresontaive in the chief magistracy of the L'nietl States. The noble historical tradiions of the Democratic party, the priniples in which it was educated and to rliich it has ever been in tho main faith ul, ils freedom from the corrupt inllunces which 'grow up in prolonged posession of power, and the natural elements which constitute it, all contribute o qualify it for that mission. The oplosite characteristics and conditions vhich attach lo the Republican party lake it hopeless to expect that that pary will be able to give butter governnent than the debasing system of alms's, which, during its ascendancy, has nfooted ollicial and political life in his country. The Democratic parly had ts orign in the efforts of the more adauced patriots of the revolution to reist the perversion of our Government nun the ideal contemnhito'il ?<>?. i %,*w rvv" ilc. Among its conspicuous founders rere Benjamin Franklin ami Thomas etlerson, Samuel Adams and .John llanock of Massachusetts, Cieorge Clinton nd Ivobert 15. Livingston of New York, nd George Wythe and dames Madison f Virginia. From the election of Thos. elforson as President in 18(K), for sixty ears tho Democratic party mainly lirected our national policy. It xtended the boundaries of tho opublic and laid the foundation of all ur national greatness, while it preserved he limitations imposed by the Constituion and maintained a simple and pure vstem ot domestic administration. C>n he other haml, the Kupublican party has Iways been dominated by principles rhich favor legislation for the benefit of articular classes at the expense of the iody of the people. It has become eeply tainted with abuses which natually grow up during a long possession of inchecked power, especially in a period f civil war and false finances. The pariotic and virtuous elements in it are now limbic-to emancipate it from the sway f the selfish interests which subordiate public duty to personal greed. The lost hopeful of the best citizens it eonnins despair of its amendment except lirough its temporary expulsion from ower. It has been boastingly asserted iy a modern Massachusetts statesman, truggling to reconcil himself anfl his allowers to their 1'residential candidate, hat the Republican party contains a disroportlonato share of the wealth, culure and intelligence of tne country, 'lie unprincipled Grafton, when twitted y James II with his personal want f conscientiousness, answered: "That s true, but I belong to a party hat has a great deal of conscience." 'lie same claim has been made in all ges and countries by defenders of old . i rongs against new reforms; It was alleged by the Tories of the American . * Involution against the patriots of that lay; it was repented against Jefferson nd afterwards against Jackson; it is lieged by the 'Jonservatives against 4 hose who in Kngland are now endeavorng to enlarge popular suffrage.

The specimen lepubliean party is largely made up of hose who live by their wits and who spire in politics to advantages ovtr tho est of mankind, similar to those which hoir daily lives are devoted to securing i) private business.
