In our next issue we will review the
University Publishing Co’s series of text
books.
Hon IL P. Bell readied here yester
day. He will address the Sabbath School
Association to-day. In next week’s issue
we hope to give our readers a full synop
sis of his address.
Thames. —Our kindest thanks we ten
der to Mrs. 11. P. Bell of Cumming for
a little gift presented us yesterday. We
highly prize the gift not for its intrins'c
value, but as a living love light amid the
sweet memories that cling like tendrils
around the giver—memories so sweetly sad
of her dearly loved friend whose cheer
ful, pure, noble life was our sunshine,
our light, and our joy, and whose
death to us so untimely and bitter, has
jnadc our life an abiding dream of our
angel in the Spirit-Land—an angel sweet
and holy now nestling in the bosom of
her “Loving Jesus.” Juv.
POLITIC A.' EXPERIMENT.
That our State Constitution requires
amendment all, or nearly so, admit. It
caa be done only in two ways—first by
the Legislature, and second by a Conven
tion. The first requires too much time,
and the last is objected to ns expensive.
We propose to obviate that objection by
a new plan, and which, in t rief, is this:
Let the Legislature call a Convention, pro
viding that the delegates shall receive no
pay, and their action have no force until
ratified by the people.
This can do no great harm and may res
suit in much relief to our over taxed peo
ple.
What say you brethren of the pre-s, aud
tax-pyaers! Speak out. 8.

THE SKIES ARE BRIGTENING
The present indications are that,
the Religious press of the conn
try has determined to stand stock
»ti)l until dooms day, and do no
niore than wrangle about old aud
eflete issues betwe n themselves
the papers will take charge of the
great cause of religious progress
and press forward the work of
true religion, as the more I iberal
spirit of the age require?.
The good old Hennas,in his vis
ion, saw the church moving on in
the form of “an old woman.” That
vision is now being realized. If
it can be said that she now moves
at all, it is “as an old woman.”
In the Macon correspondence
of our live and progressive neigh
bor, the Atlanta Constitution, of
a late date, we were pleased to
see the following.
THE CATHOLIC COLLEGE.
“The Education—loving citizens
of Macon, with characteristic en
terprise,are striving to secure the
location in this city of t he Catho
lic College that Bishop Gr ss has
inaugurated. With this idea,
Mayor Huff, heading a committee
ot the influential citizens, waited
on Bishop Gross and urged the
plan of placing the College on
the Old Fair Grounds. The move
ment is meeting with popular fa
vor and the public spirited Ma*
conites will leave no stone unturn
ed to accomplish this purpose."
What a contrast such enlighten
ed liberality, on both sides pre
sents to the narrow prejudices of
some o. the whining, ultra secta
rian time-serving and money-lov
ing Priests and Preachers of times
gone by. Tha Hass of men, and
who have b» come sc roe already,
will soon hate to give wav
altogether to another and a
very different one which is
now marching up to the front
rank. Christian men and women
of this enlightened age and coun
try arejiot to be hoodwinked and
left by the ears just to gratify the
whim or accomodate the interests i
of the most ignorant orseltish pre-:
tender in sacred things as hereto- j
fore, The time is coming—has
already come, when those who
would assume to teach the way
to life eternal must be able to■
“give a reason” for their faith J
and show that the reason given is ■
sustained.by revelation.
The game of the demagoue, in
rehgioit. has about played out,— i
The Church has now many fami-1
lies of children, all dear to Christ-
lite services of those who seek |
and labor to destroy all but one.of I
these beloved families, cannot be |
acceptable to him. “Ye shall.
know them by their fruits. t)o
men gather grapes of thorns, or
figs of thistles?”
All Christians are commanded to
love one another.” We must learn
to love Christians if we be such,
altho’ we may seriously and sin
cerely regret that errors of faith
and practice have crept into the
jChurch and deceived many.
We may hate the error, as the
work of our common enemy, and
at the same time love our good
brother, or sister who has been so
deceived.
And if all who profess (Chris
tianity would come up to this
line ai-xl show by their conduct
that each loves e very other a very
short time would suffice to heal
all the breaches and eradicate
all the errors, and differences of
opinion which have and do divide
them asunder.
We commend to our readers
the following,which we clip from
the Editorial columns of the
Southern Watchman of the 17th,
and which, by the way, is one of
the most progressive papers of
of the country. This too has the
ring of fine metal:
catholic church.
The recent visit of Bishop Gross
to this city and his lectures and
sennons were well received, and
will lead to the establishment
of a Catholic church here, doubt
less ; as we understand he appoin
ted a committee to solicit sub
scriptions for the same. Seveial
of our citizens have already sub
scribed liberally—Messrs. Bloom
field and Barry taking the lead so
far.
As our form of Government
allows every citizen to worship
God occording to the dictates of
his own conscience, a tolerant
spirit should prevail among all
Christians. They all worship the
same God-they all adopt the Cross
as the symbol of salvation —they
all trust to the merits of Christ.
Why, then, should any be pro
scribed? It is true that the Catho
lic church teaches many dogmas
which we, as a Protestant, are
not willing to receive as Gospel
truth, and so do other Christiaib
denominations- yet we all meet
and treat them in a spirit of broth
erly kindness. Some of our fel
low-citizens are Catholics and
some be Jews. The spirit of
Christianity requires us to extend
to all the Charity which we claim
for ourselves —a charity which
“thinketh no evil,’’ but is ready to
concede to all purity of motives
and rectitude of intentions. In
that broad spirit of Christian chari
ty we should all treat the effort
to establish another church in
Athens.
Methodists and Presbyterians.
Episcopalians and Baptists, both
Primitive and Missionary, white
and colored, have churches here,
and the “Children of Israel” have
a place of worship. Why should
not the Catholics also ?
To which we will only ad d, And
why should not Protestants help
to build it? Many of them no doubt
will do so, and find themselves
feeling better within on that ac
count.
But this is not the way Catho
lics and Protestants used to talk
and do. A happy change is this.
S.
RAMBLER’S REPLY NO. 4.
Readers of the Advance: Col. S.
has but followed the course he
was expected to follow in his
treatment of the proofs that the
final book of the New Testament
was given to tell of things jet
future at the time it was written, j
To admit what 1 have shown, if
plain words can show anything,
is the clear meaning of the book
would be to dissolve the very
foundation of his theory. This, of
course, he will not admit.
As to his reference to Calvin
ism, it is enough for me to say
that I formed my opinions of
election, not on Calvin, but upon
the plain utterances of the New
Testament. Paul wrote to the ’
Ephesians, chap. 1, vrs. 4, “ lie
hath chosen us (saints) in him
before the foundation of the
world, that we should be holy
and without blame before him in
love ; having predestinated us !
unto the adoption of children by
Jesus Christ, to himself, accord
ing to the good pleasure of his
will." This quotation is but one
of many that teaches the same
doctrine,.and on them my view
is based. If Col. S. desires to
j fight with scripture, even to ex
i plain it to mean the opposite of
i its plain import, the field is open
■ to his endeavor. Tholuck, a great
! scholar of Germany, confessed,
■ according to Haldane, that he
• was uncandid in exegesis of a
j part of Romans, and that for the
| sake of refuting Calvinism ! And
' when the Saviour preached elec
i tion, as it has been understood.
I to the people, in the Oth of St.
i John, all but his real disciples
forsook him. They also might
| have left him had there been
■ anywhere else to go.
But election was not the matter
• in hand at the opening of this
i discussion, and so, it is time to
■ dismiss’it, at least for the pres
ent.
Let the remainder of this article
be devoted to that teaching of
Col. Simmons' 1 , which tells us that
a child has no soul till it is born
and breathes. It is presumed that
all who know his theoiy well,
have noticed this teaching as be
longing to it.
When asked last week, as he
quoted it from me, whether he
believed a child, before its birth,
oi breathing, had a soul, he gave
a negative answer.
It is hardly fair to suppose that
the senior editor of the Advance
desires to teach what lie does not
wish his readers to believe.
We have no reason to doubt he
would have all men everywhere
believe that a child, before it
breathes, is a soulless thing. This
I take to be his teaching.
And, now, my readers, allow me
to call your attention to some
matters pertaining to your editor’s
‘ doctrine:
1. If a child has no soul pre
vious to its birth, then there is
nothing but animal life in it. If
there be nothing more than ani-
, mal life in it, where is the harm
in distroying it ? Physicians may
say that it is murder to kill a hu
man embryo, a*l civilized nations
may say so, and legislate accord
ingly, but what are their opinions
worth, if Col. Siffimons. be right?
It takes a soul and body united
( to make a human being, and to
kill anything else than a human
, being is not murder.
If Col. S. should attempt to con
demn the destruction of the un
born child, must he not do it on
the sole ground that the parent
might suffer injury? That the
law of the land condemns it, is
not of much service to him, be
cause if he be right that law ought
to be repealed; and, if it is not
repealed, shall God call that mur
der which men, because of their
"■pitable ignorance, legislated to be
such ?
Suppose our editor were called
on to prosecute an abortionist as
a murderer, what would he do?
Would he utterly falsify conscien
tious convictions to gain a verdict?
- Would he strive, for the sake of
money or fame, to have a man
hanged for killing what was not
a human being ?
2. If an embryo has no scul,
(hen its death is a double mercy.
It is a mercy to the mother, who
is saved from untold suffering by
it. It is a mercy to the child,
since, if it cames on the stage of
action it will, most probably, suf
fer no little in this life, and in the
end sink in the ia, less night of
' doom.
It follows then, that the jfliysi
cian who can destroy the greatest
j number of human germs, and do
! it without hart to the hearer of
' them, is not a monster of iniquity,
but a benefactor of the first mag
nitude. And just here lam moved
to say to Col. S., if he can fully
persuade a company of first-class
! Doctors that lie is right, and they
I will followhis index,properly they
| will not need to pursue their work
i many years till they shall be able
j to retire from practice with silver
| robes on.
3. If the child, before birth, has
i.no soul, and all can be persuaded
Ito believe it, then the Seventh
! Commandment will be shorn of
its restraining power to such an
extent as the world has seldom
, I seen this side of Sodom. Let all
• believe it to be no crime to kill
i the unseen print of sin, and every
j city, it is likely, would rival Paris
in one particular crime I Nor is
i this all, where crime is not the
. source of human reproduction,
• the shrinking from pain, care and
responsibility on the part of great
i numbers, would forbid the bear
' ing of children among them. In
one Yankee church, it is saiG,
- rhere are one hundred and thirty-
I five families without as much as
| one child among them! Query:
Have they read “war in heaven?”
Now, I would ask the readers of the
Advance if, in their judgment, a doctrine
which leads to such results as these can be
1 true ? Is it not a doubtful doctrine I
In closing this paper I will suppose a
case which might occur at any time. A
county court is in s»-ssiea; before that
court a physician is arraingned as an abor
tionist ; suppose Col. S. is there present.
When tlu* case is called the culprit tells
the judge he need have no witnesses, as he
; is ready to confess the deed or deeds al
i leged against him. But he says, “may it
j please your honor, I did not mean to com
mit a crime, nor did I; tn e, I was aware
; that the law an! public opinion in ail civ
! ilwed countries hold the deed to be murder,
i but I have receired, of late, what I re
gard as a higher law, and a better light on
this subject. I have read a wonderful tiook,
anti heard its author in iwivate interviews
|on the same subject; anti so conclusive
have been his arguments that I have not
the lea-t suspicion that a child is a human
‘ being Uli it has been boru*and breathes.
And if your honor is not content with my
' statement, the author of the book to which
■ I refer ia present, and he is ready to as
sume my defence. And I only beg, may
, it please your honor, that you will h< ar
• him through, as I know he will clear me
if he has to show that all law upon this
point, from the beginning of time to- the
present, has been wholly wrong, and if it
takes him five years to do it. And one
i word more, if yonr honor please, my noble
advocate is a conspicuous member of a re
ligious be dy, and is, therefore, entitled to
, the more attention. ”
C< 1. 8. rises in the defence the
curtain drops. Rambler.
PROF. AGASSIZ’S THEORY.
What, now, is the doctrine
; which Prof. Agassiz begins to
attack, in his ninth lecture, and
what is the doctrine which he
would propose as a substitute ?
i The doctrine which he attacks is
, simply this—that ad organic be
; ings have come into existence
through some natural process
: of causation; and the doctrine
■ which he defends is just this —
; that all organic beings, as classed
in species, have come aito exis
tence at the outset by means of
; some act of which our ordinary
■ notions of cause and effect can
give no account whatever. For
every one Os the individauls of
which a species is made up, he
. Wxll admit tlje adequacy of the
; ordinary process of generation;
. but for the species as a whole,
i this process seems to him inade
-1 quate, and he flies at once to that
refuge of inconsequent and t'.mid
, minds — miracle ?
[ This is really just what Prof.
Agassiz's theory of the origin of
. specific forms amounts to, and
. this is the reason why, in spite
of grave heresy on minor points,
he is now regarded by the evan
, gelical Chiirch as one of its chief
. champions.. Instead of the natu
ral process of generation
which is the only process by
which we have ever known or
ganic beings to be produced- -
, he would fain set up some un
known mysterious process, the
nature of which he is careful not
to define, but for which he endea
vors to persuade us that we have
i a fair equivalent in sonorous
phrases concerning “ creative
> will,” “free action of an intelli-
■ gent mind,” and so on. In thus
postponing considerations of pure
science to considerations of natu
ral theology, I have no doubt
Prof. Agassiz is actuated by a
praiseworthy desire to do some-
, tiling for die glory of that Pow
er of whivft uni
verse is the perpetual but over-
• changing manifestation. But how
futile is such an attempt at this!
How contrary to common-sense
■ it is to say that a species is pro
duced, not by the action of blind
natural forces, but by an intelli
gent will! For, although this most
( prominent of all facts setm to
■ be oftenest overlooked by theo
logians aud others whom it most
especially concerns, we are all
the time, day by day and year
by year, in eafh aud every event
of our lives, having experience
of the workings of that Divine
Power which, whether we attrib
ute to it “intelligent will” or not
is unquestionably the one ac-
, tive agent in all the dynamic
phenomena of Nature. —
Little as we know of the intrin
sic nature of this Omnipresent
Power, which, in our poor human
■ talk, we call God, we do at least
know, by daily and hourly expe
rience, what is the character of
its working. The whole experi
ence of our lives teach us that
this Power works after a method
which, in ou» scholastic expres
sion, we call the method of cause
and effect, or the method of natu
ral law. Traditions of a barba
rous and mAjultivated age, in
which mere grotesque associa
tions of thoughts were mistaken
for facts, havie told us that this
Power has, at various times in the
i past, worked in a different way—
causing effects to appear without;
cognizable antecedents, even as j
Aladdin’s palace rose in all its (
j wondrous magnificence, without
I sound of carpenter’s hammer or
' | mason’s chisel, in a single night, j
■ But about such modes of divine '
i: action we know nothing whatev- j
er from experience; and the awa-
• | kening of literary criticism, in ;
modern times, has taught us to ;
| distrust all such accounts of di
vine action which conflict with
the lessons *fe learn from what*
■ is ever going on round about us.
So far as we know aught concern-
Img the works of God. which are :
being performed in us, through
us. and around us, during every
j moment of that conscious intelli-1
j gence which enables us to bear
i witness to them, we know they
I are works from which the essen- ’
tial relation of a given effect to
| its adequate cause is never ab-1
sent. And for this reason, if we
view the matter in pure accor- !
dance with experience, we are
led to maintain that the antago
nism or contrariety which seems
to exist in Prof. Agassiz’s mind
between the action of God and
the action of natural forces is
nothing but a figment of th it an
cestral imagination from whi-h
the lessons which shaped Prof.
Agassiz’s ways of thinking weie
derived. So far as experience
can tell us anything, it tells us
that divine action is the action
of natural forces; for, if we re
fuse to accept this conclusion,
what have we to do but retreat to
the confession that we have no
experience of divine action what
ever, and that the works of God
have been made manifest only to
those who lived in that unknown
time when Aladdin’s palaces were
built, and when species were ere
ated in a single night, without
the intervention of any natural
process?-7Vo/’. Fiske, in Popular
Science Monthly for October.

can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
' ed preparation for restoring Gray
or Faded Hair to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white ■
and clean. It removes all eruptions i
and dandruff; and, by its tonic prop- ,
erties, prevents the nair from falling |
I out, as it stimulates and nourishes
i the hair-glands. By its use, the hair '
i grows thicker and stronger. In
I baldness, it restores the capillary I
i glands to their normal vigor, and
; will create a new cyowth, except in
I extreme old age. It is the most eco
' nomical Hair Dressing ever used,
! as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, M.D,

promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels, restores the appetite, and invigorates the
system. Hence it is often advantageous where
no serious derangement exists. One who feels
tolerably well, often finds that a dose of these
Pillt makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive
apparatus.
