And she had grown-up sons and daughters about whom she talked a great deal\u2019; and her husband was dead\u2014the hnsband for whom she had never cared, and whom she made little pretence of regretting.Toall appearance, she regretted nothing, Why should she, when she had all that a woman could wish to have ?Perhaps, thought the Professor, it might be a better thing to be the father of sons and daughters, when one was growing old, than to be the author of an unrivalled monograph on the merits and demerits of Julian the Apostate.To be sure there was no reason why one shouldn't be both.And then he fell to wondering whether that ambition which _had leen the chief cause of Julia\u2019s infidel ity could have been satisfied with such fame make apologies for her.THE MONTREAL HERALD, AND and social standing as an historian, a professor, and a canon may lay claim to.Only, if he had married Julia, he would probably have begun and ended as a cour- try parson.He smiled at himself for indulging in such nonsensical fancies at his time of life ; but he went on dreaming all the same until he was startled by the open ing of a gate which connected his with thee Precincts.: Somebody strode with a brisk, ringing step up the brick pathway to the frout door, singing loudly : : *I love her, and she might have been The happlest én the land ; But she fancied a foreigner who played the clarinet + Inthe middie of a Ger-man band.\u201d Then came a vigorous pull at the bell followed by subdued whistling of the air of this apposite but vulgar ditty.It was not after so indecorous a fashion that the professor\u2019s visitors were wont to approach him, aud he ceuld not resist the tempt ation tq steal softly across the turf past the library windows and see who might be the autor of all this disturbance.is curiosity was rewarded by a full-length view of a handsome, merry looking young fellow in undress cavalry uniform who himself happened to be peeping round the corner at that moment, and who at once advanced ssying: \u201c Oh, how do you do?Canon Stanwick, isn\u2019t it ?My mother asked me to leave thisnote for you as I passed\u2014 Mrs.Annesley, you know.She says you and she are old friends.\u201d «I am much obliged to you, sir,\u201d said the Professor in his grave voice, taking the note.* Pray come 1m.\u201d ¢ Can\u2019t, thanks,\u201d answered the other; \u201c I must be off to barracks.See you this afternoon on the cricket ground though, I hope.We've got a great match on\u2014gar- rison against the county.We shall be awfully licked, of course ; but everybody will be up there, and it\u2019s something to do.Very lad to see you if you'll cuine to our tent.Youll find my mother there ; the note\u2019s to tell you all about it.Good-by for the present.\u201d And with that this unceremonious young man clanked away, leaving the Professor, who had not looked on ;at a cricket match for a matter of thirty years, much amused.The note ran as¥follows : = Deanery, Lichbury : Thursday.« Drar CANON SrANwicE : I hope, if you are disengaged this afternoon, you will join our party on the cricket-ground and give me the opportunity, which I sought in vain last night.of having a little talk with you.Iam obliged to leave tomorrow morning, and I am so very anxious to have a few words with you before I go, about my son, who is quartered here.Do come.and * « Believe me most sincerely yours,\u201d ¢ JULIA ANNESLEY.\u201d» * Oh, by all means,\u201d said the Professor, who had a solitary man\u2019s habit of thinking aloud.¢ I shall feel rather like à fish out of water among all those people ; but never mind, Pllgo.Only I can\u2019t think why you should want talk to me about your son.\u201d Perhaps the Professor was still a little in the dark as to this point, even after a long interview with Mra.Annesley ; though he certainly could not complain of any want of candor* upon the lady\u2019s part.The Lichbury cricket-ground is justly celebrated both for its extent and for the beauty of its situation, and the numerous matches of which it is the scene during the summer season are always well attended.The Professor made his way through a double lire of carriages and drags, feeling and looking muck like a man who had suddenly emer- thoroughfare.The confused din raised by a large concourse ot people, mingled with the strains of the military band which was in attendance, and the shouts of eager artisans of garrison or county, bewildered him ; and it was only after repeated inquiries that he succeeded in reaching the entrance of the cavalry tent, were he stood for a minute blinkining in the sunshine, and trying with short-sighted eves to distinguish among the assemblage of gayly dressed ladies seated there the one of whom he was in search.But if he did not see her, she very soon saw bim, and came forward holding up a tiny pair of beautifully gloved hands.© How good of you to come !\u201d she ex- claitued.© Suppose we take a turn round the ground ; then we can talk quietly.\u201d She was a bright, alert little woman, her gray hair, which wa: drawn straight up from her forehead, contrasting oddly with her still youthful complexion, and giving her somewhat of the appearance of an eighteenth-century marquise.The Professor was not quite sure whether to offer his arm or not, but finally deciding that this was unvecessary, made a grab at hiz shapeless feit hat, aud muttered, \u2018\u201c Delighted, I\u2019m sure.\u201d He was a little embar rassed in the presence of his former love, whose first words showed that she, for her part.had no such foolish teeling.\u2018 Is it not strange that we should meet again at Lichbury after all these years ?\u201d she began.\u2018\u2018 I have often thought of you, and otten felt sorry.\u201d She paused and sighed.One does vot expect men to take things so seriously\u2014generally, you know, it is the men who forget, and the woman who euffer ; but I suppose you are different And I have spoilt your life ?\u201d The Professor smiled.He was thinking that most people would hardly describe his life as having been a spoilt one; he was thinking, too, that the Julia who had caused him s0 much mental anguish in years gone by was quite another person from the complacent Htile lady who was trying to He rather wished she would drop the subject ; but be said nothing, and Mrs.Annesley resumed : \u201c You ought to hate me\u2014I quite feel that ; but dceen\u2019t some clever person say somewhere that we never hate those who have injured ue, only those whom we have injured ?I have injured you dreadfully, but, for all that, I want to make friends\u2014 and toask favor of you in the bargain.\u201d She concluded her sentence with a little laugh and a side glance from eyes which had done much execution in their day.\u201cI am sure I shall be very glad if I can gerve you in anyway,\u201d said the Professor simply ; * and think we may very well agree to let bygones be bygones.It was something about your sou, you \u2018said ?\u201d : « Ah, yes, poor fellow I\u201d sighed Mrs.Annesley, \u2018 I can\u2019 tell you bow anxious and distressed I am about him.He is quartered here with his regiment, the Twenty-seventh Lancers, and he absolutely refuses to leave the service ; though, as of course you kuow, he succeeded to a very large property when he came of age.\u201d < He 1s still very young,\u201d remarked the Professor.*¢ I should think another year ortwo of soldiering would do him no harm.\u201d ¢ But it is absurd for a man with three large country houses to live in barracks.I wanthnn to marry and settle down.I want him\u2014only this is strictly between ourselves\u2014to marry Violet Cecil.She is such a charming girl, and so pretty\u2014 don\u2019t you think so ?\u201d \u201c1s she ?\u201d asked the Professor.scarcely know her.\u201d \u201c But yonand Mr.Cecil were always such great friends, I thought.\u201d * We had not met for many vears until T came down here, and I have only seen Miss Cecil once.I did not notice her particularly.\u201d \u201c\u201c How funny of you! ButI remember that you were never very observant.Well I was going t> tell you about poor Bob \u2014 oh ! there he is.I should like so much to introduce him to you.\u201d To be continued.«1 ged from a

fare.So eager were they in their haste that they succeeded in colliding with each other.Mutual recrimination \u2018followed and the jehus engaged in a fistic encounter, regardless of the errand on which they started from their stand.The gentleman seeing them thus engaged walked off to get a sleigh elsewhere, and a policeman appearing on the Bcene stopped the fight, the carters departing with bloody noses and neither*securing the much-wanted fare, MONTREAL TANDEM Cire.There was an excellent muster at the meet on Saturday, and those who took part were richly rewarded, as the drive round the Mountain Park and on to the kennels of the Hunt Club was certainly one of the pleasantest of the season, the view from the summit being most imposing and the weather perfect.The drive was led by Mr.R.B.Hart with a unicorn, most of the following driving tandem: Messrs.Hugh Paton, Hugh A.Allan, Capt.Milburne, Messrs.Alex.Stevenson, H.Montague Allan, Ga- larneau, Holland, R.B.Angus, McEach- ran,

wending his gay and festive way across the Place d\u2019Armes Square, and just about to perpetrate one of his ancient jokes, when he found his wit nipped in the bud by taking an ;mpromptu bath in a puddle situated in the middle of the path.The pool, which is certainly a dangerous one, 18 about four feet square and a foot or 8) deep, and ought to be looked after by the authorities.Did he swear?Oh, no, reporters never do that; he simply stood there, in water up to his knees, and recited a touching poem about the Road Come mittee, in which lamb or some such simi» lar word was of frequent occurrence.After he had eased his feelings by doing the sub ject ample justice, he was induced by a friend to again seek ferra firma, when he at once proceeded to the central station and reported the puddle to the police and then home to dry his chilled extrimeties.CoNcERT3.\u2014A free reading-room and public lending library were opened some time since at 123 Chatham street.The leading journals of the day, American and European, may be found on its files, and the nucleus of a good collection of books on its shelves, Strenuous efforts are now being made to raise funds to meet the expenses incurred.For this purpose two soirees are being organised, one, chiefly French,at which Moliere\u2019s celebrated piece, \u201cLes Fourberies de Scapin\u201d will be played, and a large number of the most popular French Canadian songs sung; the other, chiefly Euglish, for which the best talent has been secured.We would, therefore, invite our friends and sympathisers in this movement to extend to us their liberal support, by purchasing tickets from our agents, who will be sent around in a few days.The very modest sum of twenty- five cents has been fixed upon as the admission fee to both concerts.The Committee of Organization also beg to acknowledge, with thankfulness, the receipt of the leading journals of the city gratis.\u2014Com.\u201cLAY off your overcoat or you

occurred at the very door of St.Patrick's Church.It appears that Mrs, Joseph Farmer, residing at No.43 St.David's lane, lett her home shortly after seven, apparently in the best of health, for the purpose of attending the service in St.Patrick\u2019s, On going up the steps to the church she turned to a friend who accompanied her and observed that she did not feel weil and that she was very weak.The friend assisted her to the dvor of the church, but upon reaching it she suddeuly fainted.ISftorts were at once made to bring her to, but as they were not successful, a carter was called and rhe was placed in the sleigh and driven to Dr.Guerin\u2019s.The doctor, who was at supper, came or t to the sleizh tu see the women, and found, to the surprise of all, that she was dead.The doctor then eutered the sleigh and had the deceased driven to her late residence, waliere he examined her, but could give no opinion as to the cause of death.his directions the coroner was notified aud will hikely hold an inquest to-day.ST.PATRICK'S DAY.To-Day's Procession \u2014 Its Order and Route \u2014 The Decorations.To-day, the world over, Irishmen will, for once, forget their differences and join in accord to honor the Patron Saint of Ireland.At home or abroad, wherever there flows a drop of Irish bloed, their hearts will turn back with feelings of tenderness to the old land ; the pulse will beat the quicker at the sound of Erin\u2019s music; the \u2018\u201c shamrock native emblem\u201d will be sported by fair women and brave men, and Irish Protestant and Catholic will unite to celebrate the natal day of him who did so much for Erin and for Erin\u2019s children.THE DAY IN MONTREAL.The celebration in this city to-day is expected to be somewhat out of the ordinary.In the morning there will be the usual procession, and in the evening several concerts under the auspices of the various societies, the principal one of which will be held in Nordheimer\u2019s Hall by the St.Patrick\u2019s Society.Ancther grand attraction will be the concert by the Young Irishmen\u2019s Literary and Benefit Association, to be held in the Queen\u2019s Hall, a principal feature of which will be an address on ¢ Ireland\u2019 by the Hon.W.W.Lynch.THE PROCESSION.The various societies will assemble at nine o\u2019clock on Craig street, near St.Alexander street, and proceed to St.Patrick\u2019s Church where Grand Mass will be celebrated and a sermon preached on the life and labors of St.Pairick.After Mass the procession will reform on St.Radegonde street and Victoria Square, and march over the following route :\u2014 St.James street, Place d\u2019Armes Square, Notre Dame, DeSalaberry, Craig, Victoria Square and St.James street to St.Prtrick\u2019s Hall, where it is expected several speeches will be made, the order of the procession being as follows :\u2014 : ORDER OF PROCESSION.Mr.Patrick Kennedy, Marshal-in-Chief, Band.Banner.The Montreal Hackmen's Union and

and in keeping with former years.A beautiful arch has been erected at the corner of Panet and Craig streets, and another at the corner of Campeanu and St.Mary streets.Nearly all the houses along the route have been decorated with evergreens, some of them very tastefully, the \u2018national green and golden harp being prominent features in the display.The interior of St.Patrick\u2019s Church has also been very handsomely decorated for the occasion.MODERN CRITICISM OF THE BIBLE.Yesterday Captain Robert C.Adams lectured on this sub ject before the Pioneer Freethought Club.Capt.Adams appeared to have prepared his lecture carefully.The following is the substance of his paper:\u2014 Criticism 18 the art of pointing out the merits or defects of a production ; but the term has almost come to mean fault finding,s0 much is keenness of analysis prized.This is especially true in literature, but with one marked exception.Concerning the Bible only adulatory criticism is tolerated.In the past, the dungeon, axe and faggot, and in later times obloguy, and social ostracism have been reserved for the daring investigator who presumed to see ought but perfection in the word of God.\u201d The demand, for evidence, that proof shalljprecede belief, is now reaching even to the claims the church makes for the Bible, for, as Matthew Arnold says, we must accept what is verified not what is assumed.The spirit of modern criticism of the Bible is marked by reverence, fairness, and judicial calmness, and is 1 strong cou- trast to the antagonism shown by such writers as Paine, Voltaire, and their modern disciple Ingersoll.It holds that the Bible can be studied like all other books, yet treated reverently, and those who write most destructively lavish praise whenever it is possible.The method of modern criticism con- gists in scholarly research, in contrast with Paine\u2019s method of appealing to reason, and common sense to show the absurdity of Bible statements.It studies the comparison of religions.It compares the sacred books of all nations.It studies folk lore and traces the growth of similar fables in various climes.It makes minute examination of the text and history of the Bible and analyzes its contents with the closeness and impartiality that pertain to the chemist\u2019s laboratory.The results of modern criticism of the Bible establish the fact that this book contains a collection of Hebrew literature, fragmentary, and of mixed and uncertain authorship, extending over a period of a thousand years.\u2018Luese writings, when compared with other sacred books and the histories of other people, show that the Hebrews claim descent from Terah, on the same principle that led the Greeks to trace descent from Hellen und the Romans from Romulus, Their religion was first fetish- isin, then the worship of various gods, and finally of the chief God Yahveh.Their history was preserved by oral tradition tiil about the end of the ninth century B.C., 500 years after the time of Moses, 1300.B.C.Then books began to be written, and were edited and re-edited, each editor altering or adding as he felt desirable.The writing was in consonants, without vowels or punctuation, and different words could be made from the same letters.The manuscripts had to be copied by pen, and the writers were liable to mistakes.The oldest manuscripts of the Old Testament now extant were written in the 9th century A.D., but they probably do uot differ much trom those of the fir-t century, when it is thought one standard reading was adopted, and the many varying copies were suppressed, just as Caliph Othman destroyed all copies of the Koran which diverged from the standard text that he Lud adopced.Most of the books of the Bible are anonymous, and names of authors have been supplied.The Pentateuch, called the books of Moser, probably contains nothing written by Moses except the basis of the ten commandments.Samuel, David and Elijah showed no knowledge of the laws of Leviticus, and no writer before the Babylonish Captivity, 588 B.C., mentions Adam, Eden, the Fall or the Flood.Robertson Smith says, \u201cIt is impossible that God laid down rules in the wilderness that had no part in Israel\u2019s history for 1,600 years,\u201d Two different stories of creation are given in the first and second chapters of Genesis.Beautiful Sarah who bewitched kings and caused Abraham to lie was 90 years old ; baby Ishmael was 16 to 20 years old.and little Benjamin was the father of ten children.Conflicting stories of the flood are given and many discrepancies and contradictions are noted.An explanation is found in the discovery that different documents have been interwoven ; two of these are known as the Elohistic and Yahvistic, from the fact that one always speaks of God as Elohim and the other as Yaveh.These two writings are traced to the end of Joshua.Geographical names are mentioned which were not given till long after Moses\u2019 death, and events are referred to\u2019 not known for hundreds of years later.There is good evidence that the Pentateuch was written in three parts, 1st, about 750 B.C., the Yahvist narrative beginning with Gen.2:4; 2nd, about 620 B.C., a priest wrote Deuteronomy and Josiah introduced it ; 8rd, at the end of the captivity, 444 B.C., Ezra re-arranged the books and introduced Leviticus drawn up by priests in Babylon.Judges refers te the captivity, and that part of it certainly could not have been written earlier.Samson is from a Hebrew word meaning sun, and his story is a golar myth.The historical books show the writings of different periods.Samuel says Yahaeh tempted David,but Chronicles says Satan tempted him.The latter was written after the captivity when Satan had been remodelled after the Persian Ahri mau.Most of the 35 first chapters of Isaiah were written about 757 B.C., but from the 40th chapter we have writings later than the captivity.Zechariah contains three different writings.The Psalms are a collection of poems extending over 500 years; few, if any, are by David.Proverbs is a similar collection.The last written book of the Old Testament is Daniel, 165 B.C., which contains past events recorded under the guise of prophecy.The oldest books are thought to be Seng of Solomon, Amos, Hosea, Zechariah chap.9-11, Isaiah 1-27, and Micah.The scribes collected all the approved writings* into three books, the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms or sacred writings, but additions were occasionally made and 16 books referred to in the Old Testament are lost, The Persian captivity changed the Hebrew religious ideas greatly, driving out all pagan notions aud affecting beliefs in angels, devils, future life, judgment and resurrection.Then Greek influence became ascendant for 200 years.Many Jews were taken to Alexandria and Egyptian ideas were gained.Then came Rome's control and out of these varying religions Christianity was born.The books of the New Testament grew as did those of the Qld.The earliest writings are Paul\u2019s epistles.After his death some ene wrote Hebrews to exalt faith, and another writer produced James to uphold works.Revelation was probably written just before the fall of Jerusalem, to comfort Christians with the assurance of the speedy triumphant return of the crucified Messiah.As Jesus failed to return, traditions of his life were gathered and four \u201c Gospels \u201d have been preserved.Some 50 Gospels, 35 books of Acts and 100 Epistles have been rejected, and more than 50 works of the second century, that would have thrown great light upon the New Testament, have mysteriously disappeared, probably destroyed by the sectarian zeal of the Christian Fathers.The first clear mention of any of our Gospels was by Theophilus of Antioch, 180 A.D., who mentions John\u2019s Gospel.Irenaeus, about 200 A.D., first mentions the four Gospels.The author of Supernatural Religion examines every supposed quotation before 150 A.D., and shows that none agree exactly with our Gospels.It, therefore, is probable that they were not written in their present form till after that date.It is found that Matthew, Mark and Luke have evidently copied from some earlier record, and by writing out this triple tradition in which they all agree, a story is given of Jesus ai a purely human person, an enthusiastic prophet who hoped to bring about the establishment of a kingdom of righteousness on earth.This story omits the genealogies, miraculous incarnation, the details of in\u2018ancy, the greatest muracies, tue resurrection aud ascension.To this narrative, tradition gradually added more marvellous incidents, and writers in the second century compiled the existing materials, John\u2019s Gospel is supposed to be written by some one who had imbibed the Alexandrine doctrines of Philo, who taught that matter and God were eternal, aod God worked oun matter by powers the highest of which was the Logos.This author borrowed the idea and made Jesus the Logos or Word.A controversy between Peter and Paul was continued and extended by factions after the death of the apostles, and each selected tbe writings supporting their views.Majorities in councils finally chose out a few writings to form the New Testament, and by degrees they came to be cou- sidered inspired.Some books were long in dispute.l'he present Catholic Bible was only settled by the Council of Trent in the 16th century, and the Protestant canon was settled by the Westminster Assembly in the 17th century.We have no manuscript earlier than the 4th century, and only five earlier than the 10th century, A.D The comparison of religions, the study of folklore and of sacred books reveaj the fact that the miracles and dogmas of the Bible correspond to the beliefs of all other people, and the Hebrew religion and its writings take their place in the record of the orderly evolution of human ideas.The results obtained completely overthrow the theory of verbal inspiration, for it would have been of no use unless the copyists had been inspired.Griesbach has noted 150,000 different readings in the manuscripts of the New Testament.Modern authors always read proof, and are we to suppose that God is less intelligent than man ?* If he gave an inspired message, would he not have revised the copies?Heeven neglected to keep his own nase correct, for Yahveh was Written Jehovah by the.iguorant biunder of à trauscriber into Greek.\u2018Lhe theory of inspiration held by modern critics 1s this :\u2014T'hat, as In the process of evolution, the Greeks produced the best art und the Romans the best laws, so the Hebrews developed the best religious ideas, und we accept Greek statues, Roman laws and Hebrew buoks upou their merits as the best of their kind, but differing from the works of other people only iu degree, uot in the nature of their origin, Renan savs :\u2014*The Bible is more beautiful when we have learned to see therein, ranged in order on a canvass of a thousand years, each aspiration, each sigh, each prayer of the most exalted 1eligious consciousness that ever existed, than when we force ourselves to view it as a book unlike any otiter, composed, preserved, interpreted in direct opposition w all the ordinary rules of the human intellect.\u201d Many of the greatest scholars in the world now hold the opinious referred to, but itis asked: if these things are true,why do we not hear them from our pulpits ?Let an eminent orthodox minister asswer.He writes to a friend, © [ do, without any concealment, declare that I do not believe the whole Bible to be true, that there are human additions and interpolations, that, in fact, Robertson Smith is right ia the view he takes.Must I say alt I think to the weak and stupid public\u2014for such it is?Consideration for the feeb.e minds of * the weak and stupid public\u201d leads many ministers to witnhold these results tili the people, in!their opinion\u2018 are able to bear it.We would not destroy the Bible, but we would destroy Biblioiatry.We would reccue this valuable book from the bad use men have made of it, dishonoring to God and degrading to man.\u2018 We won°t give up the Bible;\u201d but on the shelf, where we place our choicest books, with Homer, Shakespeare, Macaulay, Kmerson, Longfellow, there will we place this noble cul lection ot Hebrew literature.Captain Adams\u2019 Lecture, To the Editor of THE HERALD : Listening to-day to Captain Adams\u2019 lecture in the Freethought Club\u2019s Hall, and pleased as I was with a somewhat manly tone which pervaded his remarks when criticizing the authenticity of the Bible, and knowing as I did that the son of the late Rev.Dr.Adams, an eminent Presbyterian divine of New York, ought not to be otherwise than candid and have the courage of his convictions, I still could not help asking myself, \u201cOf what good is such criticism, supposing it to be all true?\u201d Captain Adams seems to be willing to condemn one form ot infallibility only to set up another form.He scouts the pretensions of the scholars of the past only to adopt the pretensions of a few scffblars of the present.We have had the most eminent Christian scholars of Europe and America lately engaged in Bible revision by the aid of the most valuable manuscripts, and with all the aids to be supplied by hostile criticism and all torms of modern learning and thought.Captain Adams throws aside the labors and researches and learming of those eminent men\u2014eminent in letters, in theology, and in all the highest intellectua' qualities and gifts\u2014\u2014and adopts the views of Robertson mith and a few others! These are his infallibles ; ali others are fallible and unworthy.These are kis gods, and while he scouts the idea of Bibliolatry, he calls upon us to fall down and worship the images he himself sets up.Aud he will not be satisfied with destroying one superstition ;\u201d he calls upon us to bow before another \u2018\u201c superstition,\u201d known as modern free thought.Captain Adams would have all men dissociate themselves from their creeds and churches,\u2014would have them believe nothing, and act up to their belief.He would destroy our faith in all forms of religious belief, but jhe offers nothing in return.Suppose he succeeded in destroying some person\u2019s faith in the Christian doztrines\u2014what then ?Does he offer him anything in placeof it?Do his principles help anybody to live a better life?Do they strengthen men in trouble?Do they tend to bind men together ?How can they?Where is the common standard to live up to ?Where 18 the arbiter between right and wrong?Does he say the law?Qur laws are founded on the Christian code?Take Captain Adams himself.I admit his love of justice.From what fount drew he this?From his early Christian education.Can he lay down any law of justice or equity or fair play that is not found in the Christian code and committing the evil against which he would have his auditory warned.He, of course, opposes people receiving as accurate and reliable the statements handed down, by means of the Bible, from writer to writer and generation to generation, as accurate historical records or as being what they profess to be.Yet he is offerinf us at second hand conclusions which others have arrived at, and asks us to believe as if We had seen with our own eyes and heard with our own ears, and had investigated for ourselves generally.And he asks our acceptance of this hostile criticism simply because it is hostile and because it is in accord with his own wishes, not his own Investigations.Captain Adams adopts a theory and then he looks in every direction fr su mething to boloter it up.Whatever e- idence he finds that is agreeable to his theory Le accepts; whatever is opposed to it he would attempt to destroy.This is simply the cuurseof the partisan all through life.Captain Adams adopts it in common with the ward canvasser in elections, with the party newspaper editors or the party politician in Parliament, the speculators in gas stocks or the promoter of a railway or the introducer of a new piano on the market.He may have deceived himself into believing that he personally stands as the arbiter iu religious affairs, as outside of the current of ordinary religious thought, as in a porition to weigh all religious, non-religious and ecceasiastical systems and strike the mighty balance whick shall uplift cne or extinguish tle other.He may imagine perhaps that he and a few others of the so-called free- thought school hold the key to right and wrong, to the mystery of mysteries, to the knowledge that makes wise, although he can not tell by what agency it is that his pen re-produces on paper the thought which his mind casts forth\u2014or where he came from, how long he will stay or whither he is going\u2014or whathe will do from one moment to another, or how long he will remain of the one opinion.It is, I believe, self sufficiency which makes Captain Adams and his co-laborers suppose that in ventilating ideas which are neither new nor conclusive they are extinguishing all faith in the Christian\u2019s Bible and the Chrisuan\u2019s God.Yours, .Ricarpo.SuxDAY EvENING.AMUSEMENTS.Academy of Music.SOTHERN.Mr.Sothern concluded a very successful week\u2019s engagement at the Academy on Saturday evening, and goes to Ottawa today.He should receive a warm welcome at the Capital.THE BLACK FLAG.This bighly, popular piece will be presented at the Academy of Music this evening by Mr.Thorne and an excellent company.The San Francisco Bulletin says of this piece: \u2014The Black Flag possesses the elements of a popular play, It has an interesting story, well told, distinct and well- drawn characters, dialogue that is never dull and often apt and pungent, and a stirring movement which always leads up to something.It will not be compared with the great legitimate plays, but for a popular actor geeking to please an average audience, :t is good enough.Tom Taylor Ticket-of-Leave Man, but he could not patent so much waterial as that story presents in One play.The Black Flag deais with a similar story, but has not followed the older production either in its types of character or succession of incidents.The first act presents two or three situations which catch the attention of the audience.There are telling lines hers and there which indicate a strong and experienced hand at the work.The interest thus awakened is never lost.The brisk action, the touches of character and the bits of sentiment are so interwo-en that the aucience passes from one mood to another, but never relapses \u2018into weariness.Tue character of Harry Glyndon, assumed by Mr.Thorne, calls tor pathos, force and wanly fortitude.There is a tendency in the action to make him appear as a saviour of innceence in the nick of time, after the fashion of a lower order of drama, but this action is not repeated often enough to become monotonous.Thorne has improved in Lis methods of acting since he played some years ago in the Grand Opera House.Madame Modjeska, the far-famed actress, will shortly appear at the Academy of Music.Royal Theatre Museum.Montreal theatre-goers should remember that to-night an entire change of programme takes place at the Royal, and the management promise that the bill for the week will outdo any of their previous efforts.The names of the new performers have already appeared in Tue HeraLp, and if they are only as good as their predecessors the management can not fail to have equally as crowded houses during the present week as the past.Those who wish to atteud should make it a point to go early, as hundreds are turned away nightly.M.A, A.Gymnasiam.A MUSICAL AND LITERARY ENTERTAINMENT.What promises to.be a most successful entertainment will be given in the large hall of the M.A.A.@ymnasium, Mansfield street, to-morrow evening, by Messrs, Fraser and Baker.In addition to these gentlemen, who are an entertainment in themselves, Mrs.Page-Thrower, Miss Mary Maltby, Miss McGarry, and a host of ama) teurs will take part.The mere announce ment should be sufficient to draw a * full house,\u201d as, in addition to the prestige which Messrs.Baker and Fraser enjoy with the general public, they have heavy claims on the members of the Montreal Snowshoe Club for their hearty work at Lumkins for the amusement of all.If merit has its own reward there should not be standing room to-morrow night.Queen\u2019s Hall.THE YOUNG IRISHMEN'S CONCERT.The grand concert to be given by the Young Irishmen\u2019s Literary and Benefit Association at the above hall this evening is sure to prove a grand success if one may judge from the list of talented names and the programme.The eoncert will be a strictly Irish one, selections being made from nearly all the best Irish composers, among whom appears the name of Lady Dufferin.During the evening an address will be delivered by the Hon.W.W.Lynch, and Mr.Neil Warner will give two recitations.Among the lady singers on the programme may be mentioned Mrs.Thurston, Miss Maliby, Mrs.Otis Rockwood and Miss Talley.- Nordheimer\u2019s Hall.All those lovers of Erin\u2019s music, who wish to enjoy a rich musical treat, should attend the grand concert under the auspices of the St.Patrick\u2019s Society to be held this evening in the above hall.The programme is a choice and varied one, and those who attend will

11th, 1867, Christina Kett, a pretty girl, aged 18, was murdered in her home.No clue was ever discovered to the murderers until yesterday, when her brother told the death-bed confession that his own mother made three weeks ago.The murdered girl returned home an hour late from a visit to a lady friend.The mother in a fit of passion struck her with an axe handle crushing her skull.Appalled at the crime she smeared the dead girl\u2019s face with gunpowder, and deported herself in such a manner as to entirely elude detection.Mental torture drove her from the scene of the crime, and she roamed through western cities, finally returning here several years ago.She was sixty- four years old at her death, All of her family are dead, but the son who relates her dying confession.Oleomargarine

Mr.Gladstone.His Policy to be Tested.LoxpoxN, March 16.\u2014It is rumored that the Government, desiring to test the opinion of the country in regard to its gyptian policy, and fearing that

Cost.Loxpon, March 15.\u2014The Times says the occupation of Bac-Ninh ends in nothing.The rainy season begins in a foitnight, which will postpone operations for six months.The delta of the Red River is handed over to pillage and anarchy.The French Government will shortly be compelled to ask for a credit of twenty-five million francs, and eventually for one hundred million francs, which the Chamber will certainly refuse.The expedition will require 63 ships, 400,000 men, and the end to be gained is out of all proportion to the outlay.'

there are two native cemeteries.One is quadrangular in shape, the walls being pierced with tierces of niches in which the coffins are thrust and bricked up.Many of the fronts of the niches are in a dilapidated condition, the coffins are visible and through them an effluvia flows which must be and undoubtedly is death dealing.In the corners openings are formed by an abutment of thin interment walls, and into those are thrown in a confused mass bodies and coffins without semblance of respect for the dead.The half decom- -posed remains, which have been withdrawn from the niches to make roum for others behind this quadrangle, are 60 or 70 coffins, some yet tenanted.From others the occupants have been heedlessly thrown and form a frame work for rapidly growing vegetation.In the second cemetery, Potter\u2019s Field, the sights are equally repulsive.Herc people are in- diseriminately interred, in the majority of instances, without coffins.e\u2014\u2014 Honoring An Italian Statesman,

give one hundred and twenty killed and ninety-eight wounded.The Highland Regiment, known as the Black Watch, suffered the most severely.In the House of Commons last night the Government was interrogated as to its policy in the Soudan, and especially as to the further ordersgiven to General Graham.Lord Hartington refused any information, as prejudicial to the interests of the campaign.I learned, however, confidentially, from a source I cannot name, but very near the Cabinet, that General Graham\u2019 orders are not to operate beyond a certain distance of the Red Sea littoral until he car make a pr-h for Berber and Khartoum.The Times in its leading editorial this morning comments on the recent events in the Soudan, It points out that the operations which have already taken place are but the mere fringe of the work to be done; that until the road to Berber is opened Graham\u2019s task is still unfinished.It also points out that other nations are as alive to the necessity of keeping this great channel of trade free and open as we are, and that some other nation [evidently meaning France], recognizing the value of the Eastern Soudan, may step in as we step out.Popular opinion is somewhat pacified by General Graham\u2019s victory at Tamani-Eb.The British instinct for fighting has been gratified, and now every one Is asking.What is the Government going to do next ?On the one side, it is argued that the possession of the littoral towns and ports on the Red Sea will be the most effectual check to the slave trade, which will otherwise have to be perpetually watched by British gunboats.The Anti- Slavery Society and other humanitarians keep up an incessant cackle with regard to (General Gordon\u2019s slavery proclamation, invoking the vials of wrath both of Providence and public opinion, against this reversal of the previous policy.To this the General\u2019s friends reply that either tbe Soudan is to be retained or abandoned; and that if the latter, the people must be allowed to follow their own customs, and that \u201cthe bondman\u201d has been a part of the economy of the patriarchal household ever since the time of Job.Mr.Edgar Vincent, the financial adviser of the present Khedive, arrived from Cairo yesterday.He has full authority from the Prince to raise a new Egyptian loan of large amount.It is thought that now that England guazan- tees the sovereignty of the Kbedive, a new loan can be easily floated.The subject of cremation came up in the House of Commons on the second reading of the Cremation Bill.Mr.La- bouchere supported the measure, but Sir William Harcourt, on behalf of the Government, opposed it-\u2014among other reasons, because it might sometimes prevent the detection of murders.Lord John Manners proposes to resist the extension of the franchise in England.He will have the support of a few discontented Whigs,bat the rank and file of the party will undoubtedly continue loyal to Mr.Gladstone.The recent victory injthe Soudan has materially strengthened the hands of the Government, and the chances of the Ministry are pretty secure for the rest of the season, Mr.Gladstone has been suffering from a severe cold.Some of the Tory papers got up the story that he was taking advantage of a slight indisposition to remain at home in consequence of dissensions with his colleagues.There is not a word of truth in it.I called at his official residence, and learned that the Premier had been seriously under the weather, but is now much better.There was a discussi\u201dn in the Commons last night apropos of Aberystwith Cullege, which is languishing for want of funds.The Welsh members strongly urged the necessity of state support in the cause of education.Mr.Mundella promised an iuquiry into the subject.A lwrge gathering of Welshmen will be held in London early next month to support the cause of disestablishing the Church of England.Cambria has always been a hot-bed of non-conformity, and the feeling against a State Church is very strong.Mr.Richards, M.P., and most of the borough members will attend.The county members chiefly hold aloof.There is considerable jealousy arising on the part of Anglo-Indians as to the Russian occupation of Merv.Efforts are being made to goad the Government into some sort of protest.On Monday last I crossed over to Paris and visited the Chamber\u2019 of Deputies, where I had the opportunity of a brier conversation with MM.Revillon, Reuvier and Bert.These eminent men are all hopeful of the future of France, and believe that under the republican form of government she will ride safely through all the dangers than at present beset her ath.I observed that M.Brisson, the President, appears to have great difficulty in maintaining order, and that there is no comparison between the decorum observed in the English House of Commons and the manners of the French Chamber.Prince Victor Napoleon visited the Empress at Farnborough, in Kent, yesterday.Ie expressed his anticipation that the present regime in France will shortly break up, and royalty in some form be restored.There was a splendid ball at the Hotel Continental, Paris, last Tuesday night.The large room was brilliantly decorated.The dresses were most beautiful.I noticed several American ladies, whose toilets were remarkable more for their costliness than taste.The contrast suggested the idea that the French style was taste without extravagance, and the American style was extravagance without taste.Nothing but valses were on the programme.There was a grand discussion on Thursday night at the Ladies\u2019 Debating Society at University College, London.The subject selected by the fair disputants was \u201cThe Colonies\u2014Separation versus Federation.\u201d A lively

the lebby of the Bank parler was again besieged by an eager group of bankers and brokers, to learn the result of the weekly meeting.The general opinion was that the Bank must either reduce the rate, or consent to loss the bulk of its current discount busines, as it is being underbidden in the outside market.As the banks, both of England and France, have replenished the coffers, there was no reason to keep up the rate which was again reduced three per cent.The Stock Exchange at once felt the effect of the change, and consols, English railway and American bonds were quoted higher all round.The money market since the reduction of the rate has been very easy, and large sums are going begging.The stock market has hardened all round, and the bulls look for a rise.The cotton market is
