James Anthony Froude s on and theology is continued in Tjie Ruly at gust Iii inner of the internet Virmal flex Etc. After a running on Centary on the Lucretia Creed or. From it continues it would of course be preposterous a pretend that there was any general re Jeff Lelance Between the state of things Mcle the Kounin sovereignty and the we ent condition of Europe and ame Rica then whole world Iva held Down under a single despotism. Free and powerful nations confront each other each jealous of it s rights and Resolute to maintain them each proves to prefer Honor to Prosperity. And tie Long run the Fate of nations is determined by the convictions about the nature and responsibilities of Man enter Taine by the Ablest thinkers and every where it May be said opinions Are nou professed by men whom we to and Ijiro. Anil accepted by politicians As the Rule of Legisla Tion which recalled the phen Lomen of the time when the old order of things Pei shed As if High Multi Jii on itself was like the blossoming of a ration Tun. As t10 original was made incredible by Plant the final consummation of a Long Ierien of past efforts which precedes a change. Tjie Flower Sheds its petals. Seel vessels develop in the place of it. From a Long win Ter there arises a new Era. V fhe nations of modern the Early greeks and koreans formed their Virnal policy on religion. For cent a states and individuals alike in Lessee to be governed All that they thought and did by the supposed revela Tion which we Given to Mankind about eighteen Hundred years ago. Avowed disbelief of it there was none of secret silent misgiving there was probably very Little. For practical purposes that reve lation War accepted As a fact As Little Ailo Winz of doubt As the commonest Phenomena of daily experience. Tie uni Versal Confidence received first Shock at tie Keifon nation of the sixteenth Cen Pagari Creed the legends with which it was overspread Christi Anity was overgrown by a Forest of. Extravagant superstitions. Conscience and intelligence in revolt and Tore them to pieces. For a time All was Well. The weeds were gone the Faith of the Early Church was restored in. Its simplicity. The Huguenots in France the Luther an in Germany the puritans in England Mil Scotland were As absolutely under the influence of religious. Belief As the apostles and first converts. Providence to them was not a. Form of speech but a living reality. The preambles of tie English acts of parliament referred Al ways to the will of the almighty As the foun Litian of human Law. The catastrophe of the French Revo Lution with the enthronement of the goddess of reason appeared As the visible fruit of infidelity. The English mind was terrified Back out of its uncertainties and determined reason or no reason that it would hot have the Bible called in question. It was decided that Hume been by Lardier and Paley. The discussion Ivas not to be re opened and English Middle life returned for nearly Lucretius that the universe can b accounted for without the hypothesis o a Providence. The theory of develop Merit a it called does not deny the of find any More than epicureanism denied it. It denr.-. Tha the Phenomena require existence o such a Bein i account for them. For time even after the authority of tradition shaken science seem re to i on the hide of Reli Don. The evidence o in , urged As it to urged by the stoics in proof of a d 31 mind and is each up o Plant and animal was believe d to be i Tinct from every other each one of then a special Art of creation tour n it into being. Buth positions Are no abandoned by advanced scientific think s. In conclusion he says Man s nature is the same As it always science a much to teach us by it message is not the la it nor the e -.t. If we May infer the future from the past a time come when we Shal to with the thing we , when weal l will to satisfy nay majr be Younci of produced or preserved except when relegated to a second an place when the illusions which have strangled religion shall be burned away and the immortal Pai Tiff it restored to it sovereignty. A Long weary Road May lie before us. Sot easily will an inviolable atmosphere of reverence form again round spiritual Faith to warn off the insolent intruder. Piety rever Eyce Humble adoration of., the. Great Laker of the world Are in themselves so Beautiful that religions Faith might have remained forever behind that enchanted shield if imaginative Devotion could have kept within Bounds its Wilde mands upon the Xot till catholics had piled superstition on superstition not till protestants had elaborated a speculative theology which conscience As Well As intellect at length Flung from it As incredible did the Angels which guarded the shrine fold their wings and Fly. The Garden of Eden is desecrated the trampling of controversy ingenious reconciliation of Reli Gion and. Science no of Casi Vistic now. By and no holy water can restore the ruined Loveli Ness of Traditi onary Faith. But the truth which is in religion will assert itself again As it asserted itself before. A society without god in the heart of it is not permitted to exist and when once More a spiritual Creed has established itself which men can act on in their lives and believe with their whole souls it is be hoped that they will have grown Wiser by experience and will not again leave the most precious of their possessions to be ruined by of exam grating la credulity. The famine in Chiba. From the Tutic port Down Gazette june 18. The following from a private letter received by mrs. Or. M. Vav. Porter from her daughter miss Mary q. Porter mis in China dated peking april 1878, gives a terrible the. Horrors experienced in the famine District in the North of China Ever since i came Back Here a e have been hearing tales upon Talea of Lior the famine districts. Thousands have died and whole villages have been depopulated. The country is filled with refugees fleeing from death Only to meet it on the Way or in the crowded cities to which they flee. One poor Man reached j of earlier times. Behind the Banner thus resolutely raised came an Effort to restore the in fluence of religion on the heart and emotions. First there was a prominent of evangelical piety. As the Vave of spiritual feeling lost its Force it has been succeeded by superstition and by a less sincere and simple but still ardent Appeal to tradition and Catholic principles. The Leaky vessel has not been repaired for repairs were impossible but the chinks and flaws in her planking have been tarred Over and painted. Stained windows have gone Back into the churches and the White Light which sufficed for the simple truth Loving. Protestants has been re placed by the enervating tints so dear to the devotional soul. And choristers altars and altar ornaments Fine doilies and processions the mystery of the real presence in the name of which More crimes have been perpetrated in Europe than can be Laid to the charge of the bloody idol in have them even now among us in full activity. The religious mind has set itself with All its might to make things seem what they Are not and turn Back the River of destiny to its sacred fountains. In vain. Practical life has meanwhile gone its Way. Hie principles of the once abhorred French revolution have Wen adopted As the Rule of political action even in conservative England and silently without noise or o Sposi i ii we have taken Jeremy Bentham or our practical Prophet acid have admitted As completely As was admitted us Augustus Ciesar or Trajan that Mil government has in object beyond the material welfare of the people lae will of find has no More a place even by Courtesy in oui modern statutes. Political Economy is the Creed which governs the actions of men and political Economy by Public claim is to be an interpretation of a Law of nature dispenses with Providence while assumes As an axiom that the masses Are have been and Ever will w influenced by nothing else than a consideration of material interest.

The professional beggars a hard time now too. Prices Are very High and so Many to give to. We see men the streets dying and on Southern cities often see dead covered waiting . Large sums have been sent from England and raised in China for tie Relief of suffering people. Also a Little from America. I see by late papers that the Sam now raised amounts to something More than but is so wretched that Relief must be slow at the Best. Many must die before help can possibly reach there is a gentle Man in one of the most Distant Points distributing and reporting to the com Mittee that has the matter in hand.
