The Parisian journals anneunce with a
grand flourish that M. Fermigo has
cliarge of the ceramics, M. Deuvard of
tha plaques and allegorical figures and,
M. Feutcrt of the operating machinery,
which, the editors assure us, is a guaran
tee that they will be the finest ever seen
in Paris and consequently the finest in
the world. Besides the many thousand
Slcccs that are te line the concave of the
orue, all the upper part of the walla
will blaze with allegorical figures typify
ing the mythology, genius and progress
of nil nations; and it is parenthetically
added that seme 60,000 ceramics and
mosaics will complete the marvelous
representation.
The oxpeHition will consist of four
frand divisions, nil within ene wall, '
newn by their localities as the Champ
de Mars, Trocadcre. Qual d'Orsay and
the Esplanade, of the Invalidcs. As in
1878, the visitor con go through the1
scries from the Trocadcre te the Icna
bridge without leaving the exposition.
The four sections might be styled the
horticultural, the historical, the indus
trial and the artistic, the last for exhibits
of the iine arts. In the historical M.
Charles Gander, the noted architect of
Paris, will liave n model of every sort of
dwelling used by man since the earliest
known period.
The Eiffel tower, which is te far over
top all ether structures in the world, is
new 660 feet high, and still rising. Its
cost te Nev. 1 was 8,650,000 francs ($710,
000), and 5,575,000 pounds of iron had
been used, which indicates that the
French have learned hew te construct
publie buildings at reasonable expense.
All the waste pieces are saved and made
Inte ink stands, paper weights, etc., with
appropriate settings and inscriptions,
which are te be sold as souvenirs of the
exposition.
It strikes ene as an unpleasant surprise
te learn that several monarchical coun

France is just new the supremely hated
republic by most of the despots. Great

THE ANDOVER CONTROVERSY '
Btnikt t tha Surface Agala by the Case
of Mr. Keje.
The case of the Ret. W. II. Noyce,
who was te be sent out as a missionary
by the Berkeley Street Congregational
church, of Bosten, and who was net ac
cepted by the presidential committee of
the American Beard of Foreign Missions,
has reopened the discussions of a year
age, known as the Andevcr controversy.
Mr. Neyca was ordained as a foreign
missionary by an ecclesiastical council
of Congregational churches en the CM
of October last. The beard te whom the
matter of appointment was referred , upon
examination of the statement of the
Christian experience and doctrinal views
of the candidate, found hlin, according
te their views, unfitted for Uie position.
The treuble is the seme as that which
has previously disturbed the beard and
in the cam of Mr. Noyes the question of
an opportunity for probation after death.
New ft appears that Mr. Neyca holds that
this hypothesis of probation after death
.is "Jn harmony with Scrinture" and "a
'necessary corollary te a belief in the uni
versality of the ntonement" The pru
dential committee of the beard stntelhat
inasmuch as the beard gave them in
structions in 1880 and reaffirmed them
with emphasis In 1687, when this partic
ular case was under rovlew, the commit
tee cannot appoint Mr. Neycs se long as
he holds theso views, and Mr. Neycs
affirms that his convictions are stronger
than escr before.
The action of the prudential committee
is sustained by The Independent, The
Auvance ami ine
but is net sus
tained by The
Christian Union.
Mr. Neycs thus
states his position
in a nutshell:
"Theso who de
net hear the mes mes
sage in this lif e I
trustfully leave te
ueu. i tte net
claim te knew
Ged's methods of
dealing with
them, but I de net
rcfuse te think
REV. W. II. NOYES. inint;
behalf what I concclve te be a rcosenablo
liope that somehow, before their desti
nies are fixed, there shall be revealed te
them the leve of Ged in Christ Jesus.
In this, as in every question te which
Ged has given no distinct answer, I
merely claun the liberty of the Gospel."
Dr. Richard S. Starrs lias given a defi
nition under which, he thinks, certain
men may safely be sent out as mission
aries, and it is claimed that Mr. Neycs
comes under tills definition. The com
mittee are net a unit en declining Mr.
Noyes. Therefore there is considerable
strength en the Noyes slde of the con
troversy and seme dissatisfaction with
the management of the beard, whose
members, it is chimed, are using the
missionary fund te teach their peculiar
views.
Mcanwhile tlicre is a confusion of
council as te what te de with Mr. Neycs.
Some claim that he is entitled te be ac
cepted by the beard and should apply
again; ethers, that he should be sent out
independently by the Berkeley street
church.

"What kind of parrot is considered

"The best talkers, the most tractable
and the highest priced parrots nre the
gray ones which ceme from the West

markings. They live te be 70 nnd seme

A Wedding at Tela.
In Tcles wedding presents are exceed

nature of feed te be consumed at the
wedding festivities; and tewnrd even
ing en this day, when nil the baskets of
grain had been gathered together, the
young men of the village distributed it te
be ground in the hand mills, and for the
space of two hours nothing was te be
heard in the town save the monotonous
grinding of the two stones, and the
equally monotonous songs of the women
engaged in tills occupation. It was nearly
dark when Peter, the bridegroom elect,
was informed that all the Heur was
ground, whereupon certain young men
of his acquaintance, with flutes, bag
pipes and lyres, escorted him from heuse
te heuse te collect this flour in large
sacks.
At each heuse they tarried for a llttle
time, the instruments played and the
young men and maidens danced a curi
ous llttle dance, In which ene man and
ene maid alene took pert, nt the Bame
time singing llttle leve songs as they
move te and fro. Frem heuse te heuse
they wandered, singing and dancing all
the evcnlng, and when the flour was col
lected they took it te Catharine's heuse,
where a table was spread, at which the
women who had ground tbe grain nnd
the young men who had accompanied
the bridegroom were entertained. After
this meal, and when all were merry with
wine, the dancing began again, and con
tinued well into the night; it was very
interesting nnd pretty te watch thejinter

singing dances, and the brilliant acro

A Wall Street Man' Experiment.
The bookkeeper of a Wall street bank,
a man deeply versed in psychology, em-
E ys his spare time in making practical
ts of his researches. There is a hu hu
ireus vein in his composition, and
these tests are frequently of a laughable
nature. He is a Ann bellevcr in the
theory that man magnifies his own llttle
troubles and will unconsciously put him
self out of his way te avoid tilings that
have no existence in point of fact. The'
ethor day tills plillosephcr carefully
placed a sheet of blotting paper en the
edge of a desk in such a way that half
the sheet hung ever. The desk was in a
narrow passage that was much used by
the clerks, and the philosopher lied no
end of fun watching them pass. Instead
of shoving the blotting paper out of the
way every clerk who passed would
squeeze himself against the wall in order
te avoid knocking it down. The fat
clerks had a hard time of it, and ene of
them cricked his spinal column in a par

penditure of time nnd effort in putting
the ley and girl through the ceurse of
study in Uie schools. This conviction Is
net limited te any class of intelligence
It is permcaUng nil classes. With this
mero cotnpleto view of education comes
among the higher classes a greater re
spect for skilled labor. In these days
when riches suddenly take te themselves
wings nnd fly nway; when there may Ixi
luxury ene week and penury the next,
it is necessary for every ene te lw pre
pared for these emergencies. The exi
gencies in business life cannot always 1m
foretold with accuracy. The laws that
govern Uie evolutions of cemmerce are
te n certain extent the same in their ten
dency and as unerring in their effect as
theso tliat govern Uie oveluUons of na
ture, '
It has long been a great mlstnke of the
rich te educate their children in the ef ef ef
lloresenccs of knowledge, and te tench
them te vlew manual labor as lowering
hi its influences. But self preservation
Is one of Uie first laws of nature and
Uiere are comparatively few peeple who
would rather starve te death than work
wlUi Uicir hands. The Instinct of na
ture is strong with us nil, nnd there is
that consciousness in evcry one, at least
hi nearly overy ene, that forces him te
labor in order te save his own life. The
complications of social conditions and the
consequent competition in all dejwrt-i
ments of industrial nnd professional life,;
tegeUier with Uiese sudden disappear
ances of fortunes, nre impressing upon
the minds of all, the rich as well as the
peer, the necessity of being forearmed.'
The man who is armed is always readyj
for an attack. The man who has a
skilled brain and hand te fall back upon
is rcadv for an emcrcencv. i
If seciety is te lw compactly built and
enduring we must all contribute our
labor, net only te make it se, but te
keep it be. We have new as much of the
disintegrating elements as we need. These
are the criminal classes, the paupers, tliej
insane, the lcd ridden, the homeless, the
aged, the infirm. We have in this wlde
domain many that are needy, but that nre,
net yet the wards of the public With'

of tills alarming Incrcase in our non-producing
class, or non-contributing classes J
is te educate our children te bocemo pre-,
duccrs nnd contributors. The present!
system of education is geed se far as It'
gees, but it does net go far enough. j
If all members of society wcre predu
cers as well as consumers there would be
less necessity for poerhouscs. PracUcal
education might, nnd undoubtedly would,
lessen the tendency te crlme. An idlei
