"Let me hear when I ara on my death bo I,
that Christ died In the stead of ainnera, of whom
I am cbief that He was forsaken by Ood d jrln?
tbote feariul njonies, bccauie lie hd taken my
place; that on Ilia crosi I paid the penally of my
Z lilt. - Let me hear, too, that Ilia blood
cleanaetb. from all alD, and thnt I may now ap
pear before the bar of God, not na pardoned only,
but as Innocent. Let me realize the great mystery
Of the reciprocal substitution of Christ and tho
belleer, or rather their perfect unity, Ho In
them, they In Illm, which He has expressly
taught, and let me believe that nt I was in effect
Ctucifled on Calvary, He will l-i effect stand
before tke thrine lu tuyperson; Hwthe penalty,

His tho thoros, mine the crovn; Hla the merita,

EPISCOPAL.
The J'roles'ant Churchman appends an em
phatic I'Oilorial "Amen" to a proposition from
one of us correspondents, who evidently de
spairs ol tLe success of toe Evnuceiic.il party in
the approaching Episcopal General Couveutiou.
He proposes tuat a council ol sympathizers
shall Sbe immediately called, who shall proceed
to the expurgation of all "Itomanlzinsr Rerun"
from the ?rayer book, and then invite all Iriends
of evangelical truth, iu whatever denomination,
who favor a "moderate historic episcopate," to
unite In icrmir'r a Reformed Protestant
Episcopal Church. The Bvangelist bish
ops should then be invited to head
the movement in their official rela
tion; and, in the improvable event of their
declining, the Church should elect provisional
bishops, it would not be strange if this should
be the actual riault ot tke movement. It would
please the liitualiits, as it would leave them to
the undisturbed posseusion of thyir wealthy en
dowments, and relieve them in their weighty
mpeciabihty from any responsibility lor the
religious fervor ot the l'vng and Hubbard party.
But in the long run the abandonment by the
aeceaers of their endowments and other facti
tious advantages would prove, as in the ease of
the CoBgrep,aiionalists ot Massachusetts, who
were bleai-ed with the came lots forty years ato,
an immense advantage in developing tu.eir
strength. Independent.
The Churcn Mews, one of the Ritualist

The fiunuay Sriioot of the Vieit Arch Street

p.icc lu its hij-lory. The pastor of tnc church,
tho Rev. Dr. V ilirs, hs concntcl tu assume
the Htpcriiitendcucy of t lie school, and will
enter on his ou'ies to-morrow. Dr. VVilliu'
peninl manner arnony the young people, and
his Lenity interest lu the Sundi.y School work,
are sulliclent nsauranee than luo young folks ot
the church and Hs vicin.ty will clu-tor around
him in Ibe school, as eagerly a their parents
do lu tho church. It is not every pastor tint la
either competent or willing to bear sueh a
burden, in addition to the duties ol the pulpit,
as the charge of the Sunday School involves.
It is i.ot to be expected that every pastor can,
or will, thus engage In tbewoik. But, where
the ability and mo disposition both so emi
nently cxUt as iu the case of Dr. Willi's, it is
prntil'ving to sue a pastor iu a tioauion wbcie ho
can eycrt so happy an influence over the youth
of his charge. Let us hope that the example
of Dr. Willits may be extensively followed by
other ministers.

ROMAN CATHOLIC.
Private lettera from authentic eouroe3 in
Rome state that the bishops of the Greek, Ar
menian, and Neetorian Churches are invited
to atteLd the (Jionmenical Council, and to take
part in the discussions, bat not in the voting.
The reason for this is that the Catholic Churob.
has always recognized the orders of these
Churches to be valid, although they are in
Ecbiem. On the other hand, there never
was any question of inviting the Angli
can prelates to attend the Counoil,
became the orders of that communion
bave always been deemel invalid, and both
bishops acd clergy looked upon as mere laymen.
It 1s supposed that tho Government of Russia
will do its utmost to prevent the b!sbop3 of the
emplie iron attending the Council; for in tbtt
country Erastianism pure and simple is the
order of the day. The bishopj of Greece proper
will also very probably b3 prevented by Rus
sinr. intrigue from nlteniine; but from all parts
of Turkey, Bulgaria, Asia Minor. Palestine, and
Syria, a great number of Greek probates will
.loceed to Rome.
JEW!.
The Jeteish. Messenger says that at the
auction sale of pews in tho new Temple
Emanuel, the amount leceived reached about'
$750,000. Tue trustees expected a pre-emption
of J0,000, but it amounted to $200,000. The
highest price paid was S4G0O, the purchaser
selecting the pew directly in front of the
pulpit. The other members paid various
6ums, raDging lrom $1000 lo $5000. The
appraised- value of the pews was $000,00',
there being twenty at &5000 each. Many
ot the seats were sold at a comparatively
low price, tho trustees very properly declining
to neglect the claims of the poorer members.
The lowest priced pews were sold ior $;KjO.
accommodating seven occupants each. By tills
sale the Temple stands free lrom debt, aud with
li sinking fund or $100,000, which will bo iu
creneed when the pews remaining unsold will
be di-posed of. In a few years, probably, Bays
tho ilessencer, the Temple Emanuel will be oue
nf tho woulthiott rolipiou corporations own -
ins rtal estate to an extent equalling evou the
famous Trinity Church.
An international comrress of the more
"liberal" Jewish rabb's was held last month,
in Casel, Hesse. Their action was mo-tly pre
liminary, the members hardly venturiug to
ltdrcduce the chunges which many of them"
advocated. It was decided to call synods, which
should act with authority. A resolution passed
that the selections of Scripture iu the Syna
gogue service shall be read in the vernacular,
and not in the Hebrew. Other resolutions,
proposing more extensive modifications of the
ritual and observaucei, such as tbe dropping of
all prayers for a return to Jerusalem, the omis
siou from the liturgy of the passages in refer
eiice to sacrifices, the relaxation of rules on
heshtr food and on marriages, were referred to
a committee, to report nt a later time.
NEW JERUSALEM CUURCQ.

Tbe cable being laid, tbls company propose erecting
land llnek and eatablieulng a speedy and trustworthy
means of communication, which must command
there, as everywhere else, the commuulcalloni of ibe
Government, of buBlLesa, and of social life, especially
In China, bhe bas no postal system, and her only
means now of coromunlcatlog Information Is by
courier on land, and by stenmera on water.
The WeslernWorld knows thai China Is a very
large country, In tho main densely peopled; bJt few
yet realise that she coutatns more than a third of the
bum an race. Ibe latest returns made to her central
authorities for taxing purposea, by the local magts
trates. make ber population 'our JJunUreJ and Four
teen Aiiltioni, and tLls Is mere likely to be Dndor than
over tbe actual aggrcgat. Nearly all of these who
are over len years old uut only can, but djead aud
write. Her civilization Is peculiar, hut ber literature
Is as extensive as thai of Europe China Is a land of
Uacheis and traders; and the latter are exoecdluvly
qotck to avail tlemeelves 0f every proffered facility
for procuring early Information. It, Is observed la
California that the Chlneee make great usa of (he
telegraph, tbouyh It there transmits messages In En
gllnb aloue To-day, great numbers of fleet stiAiuers
are owned by Chinese merchants, and used by them
exclusively for tbe transmission of early lntulllgenoo,
If the telegraph wepropewe, connecting all their groat
seaports, weie now lu exlsteuce, It la belluvei that
Its business would pay Its cost within the first two
years of Its buceeeaf ul operation, aud would steadily
Increase thereafter.

gree remunerative to capitalists, aud to our whole
people. It la of vabt national lmporiauce commer
