Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Organ and
Piano {i er, is flding and shippi
more Organs and Pianos than ever. In 1870 Mr.
Beatty left home a penniless plow-boy, and by
his indomitable will he has worked his way up
80 asto sell so far, nearly 100,000 of Beatty's Or-
gans and Pianos since 1870. Nothing seems to
dishearten him; obstacleslaid in his wav, that
would have wrecked any ordinary man forever,
he tnrns to an advertisement sud comes out of it
brighter than ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to be found in
all parts of the world. We are informed that
during the next ten years he intends to sell
200.000 more of his make. that means a business
of $20,000.000 if we average them at $100 each.
1t is already the largest business of the kind.in
existence—Send to Daniel F. Beatty, Washing-
ton, New Jersey, for Catalogue.

in the science of jurisprudence.
The opponents “of religions: instruction
in the public schools are not neuessarily
hostile to Christianity. The perplexing
question is, if religion be taught in the
public schools, what brand of the article
are our public servants to dispense? Is
it to be Protestantism or Catholicism;
Methodism, Baptism, Calvaniam or ene
of the other thousand and vne isms? We
also have a large. number ‘of intelligent
and patriotic citizens of the Jewish pro-
fession and infidel persuasions who have
rights under the American constitution
that must be regarded. Shall we assume
to force these people to submit to having
their children educated in Christianity?
Did Jesus Christ himself ever counte-
nance coercion in the establishment of
his doctrines? Let the hard-hearted oli
garchs of inhospitable Russia promote
the causé of Christ by intolerance and
coercion, bat in this enlightened land let
ns trust to morad suasion, and, above all,
let us continue to deserve the name of
‘free America.”
Religions instruction in the public
schools would be equivalent -to an estab-
lished religion. which would be a viola-
tion of the constitution of the United
States, and wonld tend to break up the
harmonious relations. now existing be.
tween the different religions denomina-
tions. in this country. The constitution
says, ‘Congress shall make no law re
specting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”
The government rightly assumes that
every man has the right to choose any
brand of religion that suits his peculiar
spirithial needs, and that he may instruct
hie offsprings according to his religions
views. under his own roof or in the
schools established and maintained hy

it was a mutual standoff: and today the

Among other absurd things, Mr. Chase
said: “The works of Byron and Burns
should certainly be discarded from our
tables.” Burns, ‘the poet who lived in
closest communion with natnre; Byron,
one of the most scholarly and philosophi-
cul of poets——their works to be discarded!

but a juvenile edition of the Bible. with

Mr. Chase denounces poets in general
