It might indircctly result in benefit to the race, butthe subjective effect could not be other thanto induce solfisbness, What was needed as a counterpoise, when the world was ruuning mad after the schools, was, he thought, cultivation of the heart, of benevo- lence and kindred virtues. It was this want that Oad-Fellowship simed to moet, and had met.: The objections to the exclusive snd secret char- scter of the Order were anawered briefly, and its charitable labors illustrated by numerons incidente, Mr. Shcrman epoke for pearly an hour sud & balf, and was Lstenod to with atten- uon.

Paris Siccle, The publishing house, Garmer-Baillierc, has just issued a new volume of **Ths Internationsl Scientific Series,” in which already have appeared several excellent works. This new volume is at once philosophical .and historical. Ita title is “The Conflict Between Religion aud Science.” The author is Joun W, Draver, one of tho most eminent Professors of the University of New York., We have slready resd this work, and hasten to recommend it to our readers, sud to all thoso interested in problems reepectivg re- ligion and science. It comes from the other side of the Atlantic, and has more than one claim to e read and appreciated by vs. It is & matter of rejoicing to us to gee & people who, thus far, has seemed to be occupied with material progress, turning its intollectual sctivity and applving its singular enargy to philosophical speculation. Bcience will proft grandly by the uuited offorts of all races ad all nations. Lel us add that the time has already arrived for thought- ful pereons to come to reasonabls couvictions on whatever respects the reiations of Catholicism 1o modera cirilization. In the conciading chapter of tua book Dr. Draper considers the approsch- ipg crisis betweon that civilization and the Roman Church. For a long time this crisis has been foreseen by serious obeervers. In certain countries it has already reached 1ts climax, snd under a form, either pecific or violent, no nation cau escape it. From the day in which these two principlea—bat of science and that of religion— opposing principles—have been placed 1o the world face to face, a collision was inevitable. The gauntlet thrown down to freq thought by the Vsucan, in proclsiiaing the infallitaiity of the Pope, has hastened the moment of that col~ ision. 'Tne book of Dr. Draper has for its ob- ject to indicste tous the prerent position of the two partics, by etting forth in & sor.es of tablets the ‘diverse phases of thsir conflicts in past ages. "Tho chapters which Dr. Draper has devoted to Arabian civilization are among tlie most iemark- able of h:s book. Tho suthor has oesired to vindicate tbe Arabians, whose history has hither- to only Leen written by their enemies. He shons the successors of Mohammed manifesiing for sciznco a3 much sympathy as Catholicism of the Middle Ages mauifested hatred. Medecioe, as- tronomy, mathematics, literature, wero beld in bonor by the Khallis, I7 Groek thought at the epoch of the renaissanco cast its relations over qarope, it is to the Arabs above all others that the bleesing isfius. It was thoy who preserved sod enriched it. Space would Tail us to follow Dr. Draper in his historisl expositions of this theme. He examines, one afier another, each of the conflicta which have srisen between ro- ligion and sciencs,~the oconflict on the nature of God, that on the natare of the moul, that on the nature of the world, that oo the govoroment of the universe, as theee problems in mccossion aross, and he show that the Church alwaya took part against the scientific visw, and was alwaya over- tbrowd. The book of Dr. Draper displays the most extonsive and most diverse learning. Fosr meo, even among the most illustrions of Earo- pesn savans, would have been capabla of writing b, What especially strikes us is the substantial Iogic aud tho precite observation inclosed in this little volume, Dr. Draper's thought, nervous and concentrated, is nover lost in decails; it de- nies itself all rhotorical display. Iis tope is ve and severs, but one would be greatly de- ceived if he thought that passion waa wanting This passion, on the contrary, burns under an impartiality of language. It is this that renders 0 nttractivo tho reading of this phulosophical book—the passion for truth, the love of intel- lectusl freedom, and s desire of upholding it. Sometimes it bappens that thia passion betraye itself, When = legitimate causs pormits its manifestation, it bursts forth 1n superb words. One may seo it in this passage, in which the suthor 18 relating the deatn of Giorando Bru- T s % But we must bewsre. It will not do for us to continue our quotation. One ward in conclu- sion. The suihar of this book, 8o firm, 8o frank, 80 courageons, is Professor in the University of New York. He deals equally with orthodox Protestaotism as with Catholicism, Ho speaks with equal courage to them both. 1f Dr. Draper fived in France, 2nd notin Awmerica, docs any- body believe that he would be permitted to occupy 8 chair fo & university, and be permitted to oxpress himaelf with smo much freedom? Can we ever be sure that such 2 book ag this conld bs published without find- ing 5 magistrate who_ would Lave discovered i it a crime sgainet tho religion of the State? There would have been Ravelets and Venillots who would have depoupced the author, ob- tained Lis disgrace, sud shut his mouth. 'But in New York it enters ioto the mind of nobody to thiok that & savant, no matter what his reli: ious opinions may be—a savant merions, truth- ful, nseful to youtb, sad konor to_his countrs— can be a dangerous tescher in & uoiversity. And yet, neveoribeless, in America, 83 every one knows, religions convictions sre universal; they are sincera; they are profound. It is for this very reason that Americans know bow to be fol- erant. of good standing. SUBSIDIZING THE PRESS. How To Float \'Yortmess Rail- road Securities, The Rockford & Bock Island Road and the New York Papers, Mr. Bowen of “The Independent” Se- cures 40,000, How the Finoncial Writers Communicate Their Wishes. The court record of a paper is generally passed ovor by tho ordipary reader as nninterasting and unimportant, and very often it is so. Discords and bickerings are too common in everyday life, and furm too large s part of cach man's ex- perieuco, to need auy additious by recitals of others’ woes. But somebimes there will be found to be notable exceptions, and the fore- closure suit agsiost the Rociiford, Rock Island & St. Louis Railroad Company orms av oxample.

Why did they not follow the old line? A.—It was fonnd, by examination, that, althougn some of the grade-work had been executed, that which remained to be done would cost more than the other Line; anoihor resson ‘was that & largor stock subscription could be ob- ta:ned on this line than ou the other. This change of the ruad bas raised an im- portant question in the case, 83 Judge Drum- mond has decided, 10 the intense disgust of some of this German bondholders, that the holders of the first-mortgage Louds are cntitled to a prefer- ence or priomty in payment, &ud the next quos- tion is 28 to how much of tha road 18 covered by the first-mortgage, its direction having beon ma- terially changed after the makiog of the mort- gage.
