THE HONEST SKEPTIC.
BT KKV. ALEXAHDKll CLAHK.
There is an fconcst ikcptic In almost every
Hltlo commuulty of a dozen souls, as la a cer
tain npjicr room tbcre was a Thomas long ago.
And be is not to be ruled out as a reprobate.
The man who doubts and, for aught we know,
honestly denies tho truth is worth looking at
and talking to face to face. We cannot frown
him aside. He is a character of Interest and
importance; and, alone, bo balances ovor against
thousand mere credulous profossors who are
unable to give a reason for tho hopo that is
within them who satisfy themselves and their
mutes by saying, "Yes, Just so; it's all right all

to the passions of the thoughtless crowd, that
insidiously pronounces its inQdel jeers and
jokes, lnucndoes and blasphemies, to the enter
masses who care nothing for truth. It points
out the Judases, but knows no Johns. It exag
gerates exceptions until rule and reason lose
significance. It appeals to tho illiterate and
unreflecting multitudes. But the honest skeptic
''i goes to the man who believes, and ays openly,
'personally, and respectfully, "I cannot believe
in the doctrines you oner, unless you give
inc more evidence." Ho is inquiring, anxious.

after certainty. Who' rightly apprehending,
docs not admire Thomas ? He has honor, and
purpose, and feeling. Skepticism like his, out
spoken and emphatic, has more virtue in an
hour than all the traditional faith of schools in
centuries. Inquiring unbelief will meet and
recognize Christ and bo satisfied, sooner than
any five-pointed, technical, spectacled, and sclf-
complnlsant snintsulp under the sun.
How does Jesus himself deal with tho skep
tic? In his manner, rather than in any method
ism of the sects, shall we discover the true cri
terion. Docs the Risen Ono denounce him,
exclude bim from the select circle, hesitate to
enter the room because Thomas, doubting and
determined as ever, is within? Let sectarians
who fence away all from their communion that
do not subscribe to every line of letters in a
narrow tenet who turn over luto perdition all
that move beyond the rim of their own little
chnrch note well the Saviour's dealing with
the skeptic. Here is a man who deliberately
avows his unbelief. Jesus knows bim, seeks
bim, nears him, fastens his loving eye upon him
as worthiest now of special attention in all
tho group, and says: "Reach hither thy
finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither
thy hand and thrust it into my side; and be not
faithless, but believing." Hero is plain per
sonal dealing, without upbraiding or reproach.
Here is preaching condensed to a single point,
stinging, sharp, and keen with love, and pressed
!lnto the individual soul. The Saviour did not
generalize on tho subject of doubt, and leave
the doubter to select and apply to himself what
be bad a mind to. The Redeemer deals specifl-

doubts. The liberating message is exclusively
for tho captive. The ten emancipated disciples,
bappy and strong in the truth, are but casual
witnesses of a new sublimity now that of the
risen Christ lifting a great soul from the gloom
of its unbelief!
HUaUIAltY OF CHURCH NEWS.
EPISCOPAL.
The Euiflcoral church in Omaha has been

The Methodist states that while Methodism
lias advanced in the towns uud country places of
England, It is feebly represented in Loudon. In
nil tho city there are only 65 Wesleyan minis
ters. For registration purposes, London is
divided into 87 districts and 135 sub-districts.
The Wealeyan pastors reside in 47 sub-districts,

Ono gentleman of Lynn, Mans., has put down
ms name tor v lo.ouw oi the last-named sum,
and there are numerous smaller sums.
PRESBrTERIAW.
The Synod of Georgia has determined to re
move Cglcthorne University to Atlanta, says
the Associate lieformed. 1'resbuterian of Due
West, S. C.
Rev. Dr. XIarch, of the Clinton 8trcct Church,
in this city, is going to spend several months in

Adams will supply his pulpit until he returns.
Tho church in Quincy, Mich., after struggling

The Chicago Advance says: Rev. Arthur
Swazey, pastor of the Third Presbyterian Church
of this city, has resigned bis charge, to become
editor-in-chief of the new denominational paper
here, its first number Is promised in rcliruary
Tho Presbyterians, especially the New
School, have for a year or two past been very
active in Kansas, where they nave within 18
months crown from ono nreshrterv to a svnod.
and from two ministers to thirty. The union of
tho Old and New School Synods will give about
70 ministers and churches. As many as twenty
rrcsnyterian churches nave ocen organized dur
ing that time.
Those who favor tho permission to use in
strumental music in the worship of tho English
l resDyterian Church have gained a marked vie
toiy. Two churches in London havo used the
organ, and their case has been for somo timo
bclore the presbytery. The presbytery at its
last mcctlnK voted by 21 to 8 to present an over
ture to the next Tynod begging for permission
lor any church to use instrumental music when
ever two-thirds of its members shall vote in its
favor. The argument that such a decision would
tend to estrange the Freo Church of Scotland
was answered by the assertion that on tills sub
ject opinion was more liberal north than south
oi the 1 weed.
A ridiculous charge has lately been pub
lished in the Chicago Times and elsewhere, to
tho effect that the Presbyterian nroaehors of
Albany all refused to oiliciato at the funeral of
Eckel, a prisoner confined in the penitentiary
1 hey reply that not ono of thorn was asked to
oiliciato: not one knew of his confinement or
death there; and not one would have refused to
olliciate if required. There is an excellent chap
lain in the penitentiary, and their services are
not generally needed, though always freely
given, as in the case of tho chaptaiu's late ab
sence in Europe.

Richland, Ohio. This is a good report for ono

CATHOLIC.
The decree of the Pope instantly proroguing
the General Council in case of his death, is of
the most absolute and arbitrary character. After
his death no meeting can be held, and if ha d no
action w ill be valid till atter they are called to
gether by his successor, elected by the cardi
nals. Under no circumstances, and on no pre
text, is the council to assume the privilege
And a similar rulo he enacts shall prevail in the
cufo oi any luture councii.wiiercvcr held. More
over, any decree of any council in contradiction
of this decree Is ipso facto null and void. And this,
notwithstanding the Constitution of Pope Alex
ander HI, uud notwithstanding any other laws
to the coutrary. This action is not unprece
dented, however much it asserts supremacy of
Pope over council; but a similar provision was
Diade iu case of their death by Pope Julius II,
whose successor wns chosen by the cardinals,
nnd not by the Fifth Lateran Council, and by
Popes Paul HI and Plus IV at the time of the
Council of Trent.
