Pacific Ocean, May, 1868
NOAH'S ARK.
Our great steamship Montana, with her freight
capacity of four thousand tons, must be about the
&mei/pions of the Ark—that of the Patriarch
somewhat excelling. It was a long while in the
efforts of modern ship-building before a shrewd
Dutchman determined, against many remonstran
ces, to build his ship according to the proportions
though not dimensions of that , wonderful• oraft
hundred years in construction—six times rs long
as wide. When completed and on the water, to
the great amazement of all the wise Dutch heads
in Holland, it ontsailed all other floating crafts.
The Lord as an architect was wiser than men.
The Ark was three hundred cubits long by fifty
broad and three stories high. Our vessel with
like proportions—falling a little short in length
and breadth; has; hoWever, her three stories for
the accommodation of Jive stock, with a hold of
enormous capacity for machinery, coal or freight.
PASSENGERS 'IN THE ARK • ?
The crew of the pious old ship builder, as ali o
pears from' the record, was large and greatly di
versified. A few only of the genus homo; but
beasts, and birds, and reptiles of .aIl sorts and
sizes, both clean .and unclean. Beyond question,
however, were Noah here to examine the crew of
the Montana, he would yield the palm for diver
sity among the living creaturesin this modern
ark. The good Patriarch,after looking over these
twelve hundred of his reputed descendents, would
be ready to declare himself.a. disciple of Agassiz,
and deny that all these were his offspring—that
a number of varieties were not .-his children.—
that they must either have escaped the delugein
some other craft, or been originated since. But
not so, Father Noah, explain the divergence or
degeneracy as you may, they are all thine.
Here compacted together, hre Americans; Eng
lish, Irish, Welsh, Scotch, Spanish, French,
Dutch, Germans; Norwegians, Asiatics, Africans,
and some from the Isles of the Sea. By profession,
we have ministers, priests, lawyers, .doctors, effi.-
cers, soldiers, actors, merchants, farmers, artisans,
laborers, gold•diggers, speculators, schemers, ad
venturers, idlers, thieves, and .prostitutes. In
belief, we have Protestant, Catholic, Jew, Infidel,
Pagan, with every posSible intermediate shade of
belief and unbelief—all eager to reach' a single
goal, an earthly Paradise, with but little seem
ing care as to an eternal destiny. The .occupa
tions of the passengers are as diversified as their
characters, Generally frivolous, useless and with
a seeming desire merely to kill time.
Four times each month this Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, by means of her huge ves
sels is pouring through the Golden Gate a flood
tide of humanity large as this ; besidei crowds
upon opposition steamers, sail-vessels, and across
the continent—all to be scattered and commin
gled in the society of the Pacific.
What is to be the result of all this upon our
national interests, especially upon the kingdom
of JesUs? This unquiet flood-tide of jarring hu
man interests and conflicting opinions isnot about
to settle down into torpitude under the stimulus
of new, rising and prosperous States. Great ef
forts guided by master minds in the Church are
demanded for the control and proper guidance of
all these teeming elements. The struggle between
truth and error, sin and holiness deepens, inten•
sifies and assumes new phases as the workings of
worldliness and conflictina b opinions and passions
among men continue to be developea.
Long time yet, ere all who go down to the sea in
ships together with the sea's abundance, shall be
converte to the Lord. A. M. STEWART.

MODERN LIVES OF JESUS.
With a great sigh of relief, , the book-critic
and the student turn from theonderons, multi
tudinous, learned, foreign and native works on
the most prolific theme of modern literature, the
Life of Christ, to this thin volume, in which a
sound, searching and conclusive criticism of the
most famous of them is given—we mean Mr.
Grinnell's translation of Dr. Ulimoures Four
Discourses, delivered before the Evangelical
Union at Hanover Germany, on the MODERN
REPRESENTATIONS OF THE LIFE OF JESUS, pub
lished by LITTLE, BROWN' & CO. ; Boston. From
a thoroughly evangelical, yet enlightened point
of view, and with a vigorous unrelenting criti
cism, in the compass of these four Discourses,
occupying with notes but 164 16ino. pages, the
preacher examines the theories of Rena; Schen
kel and Strauss, on the Person of Christ, and
the principal positions held by the unbelief of
our day, which seeks to retain even with some
show of respect the name and the moral system
of Christianity, while discrediting its supernatu
ral elements, and denying the historical scourscy of its.writings. The whole volume is one of
the completest exhibitions of the absurd logidal
consequences of these late infidel theories that
we have ever seen. In these pages, we see the
word verified: "I will' destroy the wisdom of
the wise and will bring to nothing the under
standing of the prudent." Men who try to per
suade themselves that intellectual difficulties
have drawn them from Christianity, may here
learn what far greater difficulties form their
only alternative as unbelievers._

emigrant companies, who have agents in China,
and who fulfil their engagements—among which
is one to return the Chinaman, dead or alive, to
his native country—with scrupulous fidelity, in
which they are equalled by the emigrants them
selves. But as they cheapen the price of labor
so greatly, particularly in manufactures, the
prejudice of the other working classes is becom
ing too much for them. The party which has
always insisted that, this is a " white man's gov
ernment" is pledged to prevent further imports
of Mongolians and to worry out those who are al
ready in the State ; so that the departures are
now in excess of the arrivals. We must confess,
the question of dealing with these precursors of
a movement on the part of a race which num
bers one-third of the human family, is one quite
above the range, not only of inky polities, but
of the common rates of emigration. "The Le
gend of Ball's Lake" is a story of the vengeance
of Marion's men, who ranged, in their pursuit
of the British and their Tory aids, in the neigh
borhood of this lake. The introductory part is
a gem of descriptive writing. "On Expression
in Painting" is a thoughtful wholesome article,
in which the decline of painting from the lofty
ideals and reverential spirit of the great mas
ters, to the coldness, puerility, servile imitation,
sensuality, pre-Raphaelite baldness and namby
pambyism of modern schools is deplored. A hope
ful indication, howeder, is seen in the success : of
many in the branch of landscape painting. A
truly devout tone pervades the article. The
writer believes "that in'the development 'of the
landscape art of this dountry, we shall find the
best substitute for, and the greatest, resemblance
to, the long lost art of the early painters,, as re
gards tone, feeling, honesty of purpose and re
ligious emotion." "To a Book Wortn" by Edgar
'Fawcett, is a specimen of uncommon powers of
'versification; its multitudinous and musical
rhymes reminding , us of Poe; or of our friend
Duffield's late translation of Bernard's fine Latin
hymn. " A pilgrimage to the grave of Hum
boldt" speaks with unqualified admiration of a
'man who indeed, in many respects was what his
king enthusiastically styled " The greatest man
since the Dtiluge," but who was no believer, that
the world knows of, in Christianity. ".Mapping
the Moon" is a very entertaining popular view
of the recent scientific advartec in accurate
knowledge of the moon's siirface. There is on
record •a list of one thousand and ninety-five lunar
mountains, of all degrees of. elevation, up to two
hundred 'feet higher than Chimborazo. Were oni
mountains as high, in proportion to the :greater
size of our globe, they would be over two hun
dred miles high. It is beginning to be believed that
the surface of the moon is undergoing percepti
ble changes. We are informed that, during the
space of' fifteen days of 'the moon's changes, the
mercury would indicate a change on its surface
of over nine hundred degrees in the tempera
ture, from eight hundred and' forty degrees of
Fahrenheit, down. " Drowned" is a skilfully
constructed poem, the brief concluding lines of
each verse leaving a peculiarly Sorrowful feeling
in the heart. " No more Metaphysics" is a vigorous
and sweeping assault upon the popular material
ism and positivism of the' philosophic specula
tion of the present. The writer, Epes Sargent,
says : " There are indioatimis Of contest com
ing, when it will require the efforts of all be
lieving men . .. to save the rising intelligence of
the age from a blank negation, or a still more
fatal indifference, under the excuse conveyed in
the conveniently coined, phrase of theological
nescience."' This number commences the, second
volume with far more promise than the first.

FALSE #PINION OF LUTHER.
Luther is sometimes grossly misrepresent
ed by those who have never thoroughly .
studied his character or have not the power
of appreciating it. In a book entitled,
" Familiar Letters from Europe," by C. C.
Felton, late President of Harvard Univer
sity, we have a striking illustration of this.
The writer says (p. 80-81): " It is singular
how certain names grow upon you in Ger
many and others diminish : at least they
have done so with me. Take Luther and
Albrecht Diirer. All the world, knows the
former, and perhaps something of the latter.
But I could not bring up my conception of
Luther in Germany to the idea I had of
him before. I saw Ibis manuscripts, collec
tions of works, portraits; buthis big drink
ing-cups were after all, the most prominent
memorials he left behind,,him. Be :was :a
jolly old soul, hearty and honest, I dare say,
and banged away at the Pope and the Devil
with good will and good effect. But there
was nothing high and grand about him. I
went to see the place where the Devil is said
to have helped him over the walls of Augs
burg; but even there , not a gleam of poetry
associated, itself wdhhis name. The huge
drinking-cup seemed to swallow up every
thing, and the couplet, said to be his, ap
peared to tell the whole story :
" Who loves not wine,, woman and song,
Remains a fool all his life long."
In short, his burly face and figure, and the
goblets that testify to his powers, made it
absolutely-impossible for me to connect any
heroic idea with the man.
'But how different with Albrecht Diirer I
His pictures in the collections at once ex
cited my interest : his portrait completed
the work; The marvellous beauty of his
face; the sweet, sad expression it always
wears ; the lofty purity and ideal grace, that
seem to transfigure the mortal into an im
mortal nature,—distinguish him from all
other men of those ages. His spirit gained
a stronger and stronger "
hold upon me, every
day I was in Germany.
I can hardly imagine.how a man of liber
al culture could write such words about the
great Reformer. Excepting Rornanists, I
know of but one effort that has been made
which is more calculated, to disgrace Luther
than the above sketch, and that is the effort
of these men with the Lutheran name, who
claim that Luther destroyed the power of
the Pope of Rome for the purpose,of making
hisown authority supreme in matters of faith.
I saw many relics of Luther, 'among others
his drinking cup ; I was in his rooms at
Wittenberg and stood beside his grave. But
my impression was very different from that
of the author of the " Familiar Letters."
The whole city of Wittenberg, especially
the University-building, the church in which
he preached, and the spot where he burnt
the Pope's bull, spoke to me of the grandeur
of the man and the heroic character of his
deeds. When my eyes rested on Worms, I
could think of nothing but the heroism of
him who in the name of God and the Bible,
defied the power of the Popo and the Devil.
In Luther's room, at Wittenberg, I sat on a
kind of bench on which he used to sit.when
studying or writing, while •on the same
bench, quite near him, would sit his wife,
sewing or knitting. And in the corner of
the same room, lay an old note-book, much
worn, said to have been used by him. Lu
ther's home-life, his ,affection for his wife
and children, his love of music, do not these
associate "agleam of poetry with his name?"
It may be that some of his pretended fol
lowers have inherited from him nothing but
their "huge drinking-cups;" but it is very
unjust to say of Lather that everything con
nected with him seems to be swallowed up
in his huge drinking.cup.
I agree with President Felton in his.esti
mate of Durer. His portrait and his pic
ture show that his soul had an appreciation
of, and could giVe expression tb, the beauti
ful, .and that it was itself beautiful. But
had the author of these Letters known the
high regard cherished. by Diller for Luther,
he would probably hallo modified his views
of the latter. Diirer loVed Luther; and
those who appreciate the fortner so highly
will. surely not ignore his opinion of the he
ro of the Reformation. When Luther was
secretly taken .to .the Wartburgi. many of
his friends thought that he had been mur
dered by the papists. Albrecht'Dfirer also
thought he was dead, and in deep grief
wrote the following while at Antwerp': "My
God, is Luther dead .I Who then shall hence
forth preach so clearly to us :the holy Gos
pel 2:' What might he not hive written.for
our. benefit if •he had been spared ten or
twentyryears - Oh-all ye pious Christians !
help me 'earnestly to mourn. for• this divine
ly illumined one, and join •with me in be
seeching God to send , us another•enlighten
ed man."—Lutheran. Observer. '
