Ilarper's Weekly and ita accomplished artist onco more placo theloversof an honest Government under obligations, The Mnaine elactions wero held yesterdny, The resnlts aro of a most gratilying charac. ter. In overy district, in everyhamlet, thero wero Republican gains, and in some in- stancos tho majorities wore greater than in 1872. The Republicans made a cléan sweep yestorday. Theentire Btnto tickot was elected, and from every Congressional, Sonatorinl, and Legislative Distriot tho Republican can- didates wero roturned. Tho majority is esti- mated at 15,000, and this will no doubt bo incrensed on the reccipt of fuller returns, Thnt Maine wani Republican docs not possess 8o much significance—she could not doother- wiso—ns the fact- timt gréat gains wers mads over tho majoritics of lnst year. It gives tho lie to the hopo with which the Democracy have beon buoying up each other, that n large pereentago of the liva elements of tho Republican party hnd bocome dis- ratisfled and yearnod for & change. Earl Derny has finally given public expres- slon to his sentimonts on tho Esstern con- troversy. In roplyto depnintions from workmen's nocietics of London, he unhesi- tatiugly declared that the Government had nothing to regrot in pursuing the policy which it had adopted; that the Turkish question was the most sensitivo poiat in European politics, and required tho most consummato wisdom and modoration for its succoseful treatment, Tho' Earl fur- thor maserted that nny attempt to- pattition of the 'Turkish = Empire wonld bo the sura signal of a general Enro- poan war, in which the objective point of all the Great Powers wonld be Constantinoplo. Dreny beljeves in the principle of local self- goverument as applied to Egypt, Crote, and other Turkish provinces. Similar arrange- ments might, nuder pressure from the Grnat Powers, bo made with the provinces now in insurrection, sud this was tho only feanible way of soitling the existing difficulties. AL W. Gary, a fire-enter of Aiken, 8, C., has succeeded in achieving a cheap immor- tality in hig State, and wherever else chival ry, “chivalry, sah,” obounds, X fow dnys ngo he mado a spoech at his ancestral homo to an audience of reconstructed Rebels, who regard * nigger-hunting" os one of their special priviloges. Ho told lis hearers that South Carolina must bo earried for Tizpxy ; and,in order to accomplislk it, Gov. CuavpEen. zaty and othor prominent Republicans, whom he named, mustbe killed. Thonegroes must be induced by armed men to vote “the right way.” If they refuse, they must bo shot down in their tracks., In a fine burst of oloquonco ho informed his suditors that if the Republican party should eucceed in carrying _the Btate, it was the imporative duty of tho Democrats to praceed to Colum. bin and tenr the,State-House from its foun- dations ; and tho frenzied mob of unrapent- ant Rebels, who wero m full sympathy with the speakor, howled their delight with infor- nal glee. It will striko all Ropublicans that ho timo hns fully arrived for unfolding the “bloody shirt” when Union-haters like Gaur, Hexoniczs, and TIupey holst the pi- rate flag. INDIANA, J In lers than 30 days the State election will take placo in Indinng, and the importance of that cleotion can hardly be exaggerated. In ono sense the eloction in that Stato will de.« tormine tho I'residentinl resnlt in the United States. If Indiana elect ITanuson Governor, then thatwill bo the cnd of Tiuoex and Hey- pricrs, and the election in November will bo the mere formnl expression of the will of the peaple officially stated. It is scldom that a national election can be thus practically do- termined by tho result of an oclootion for Btate officors in a single State, The eloction of TiLpex requires that he shall, in addition to the votes of the South- orn States, get the votes of Now York, Con- necticut, New Jersey, Californin, axp Inpr- axA. Indiana is ossontinl to his success; ho can no moro afford to loso Indinna thao Le can loso New York. 1losmust got both States to Lo eleoted in any event. Yenusylvania, Ohio, Illinals, Michigan, Wisconsin, sud Towa ore all hopeleusly boyond his reach. In Now England ke can ounly hope for Con. necticut, Tho voto of tho whole ex-slave- holding Statcs is 138, Of those, South Caro. lina hns 7, reduciug all others to 131, Tt will roquire 183 votes to clect. DBut tho Ropublicana are certain of Loulsians, 8 ; Missiasippi, 8 ; Floridn, 4; total, 20,— unloss tho polls aro carried by force, This will leave Tiuorx 111, subjoct to a probably loss of North Caroling, 10, Iisvote in thq, South will, therefore, be 101 voles, leaving him 84 to'get. For theso ho looks to Now York 35, Now Jorsoy 9, California ¢, Con. necticnt 0, Indisua 15, Oregon #,—total, 74, leqving bhim 11 short of an election, But assuming that lo gets Ndrth Carelina 10, nnd 10 other votes from the other Btates, ho will have at the utmost 194, includiny In- diang, Tho loss of Indiann reduces his pos. siblo vote to 179, . Ilero, then, it will be seen that, admitting all that TipeN's most carnest friends cou clatm, it will bo scon that Indiana i a8 es. sential ns Now York, aud to lose Indiana is toloso all. Its loss cannot Lo made good, but ita loss in October will at once destroy the party hopes, and there will practically be no contest in November. Thoro is, thero- fore, no room for surprise at the oxtraordi- nary effort moking nodor IeNvnicks' per- sonal efforts in Indiana. Every devics or schome to éivell tho Democratio vote will ba resorted to. 1llinois aud Kentucky will bo expected to furnish their contingents in Oc- tober to save the Democratio party from dis- solution a 1uonth befors the Presidential eloctlon comes off, ‘Whilo o victory in Indiauain Qctober is vital to the Democratio party, its loss to the Republicons will Lo in no wise disastrous, Tho vote of Indious is in uo way cssentlol to the olection of Hares and Wuerues, There aro 101 votes as cortain for Haves na is the vote of Vermont, and this does not include tho following States: California, 6; Now Jersoy, 9; Oregon, 3; Wost Virginin, 5; New York, 35; Indinnn, 16; Louisiang, 8; Mississippi, 85 Norlh Carolina, 10; Cal- orado, 35 Florida, 4; total, 107, And in all theso States the Republicans have niuch the better chiances, in some of them an absoluto certainty, if the polls bo left freo, and in ease Indianavote Ropublican in October will carry them all. Ohio hns been removed from tho chnnces,—being practienlly abandoned to Hiyes, If by any chanco the Democrats shiall éarry Indiana in Ootober, it will merely servo to protract the canvass; it will leave the Democrats ablo to say Thero “is yet hope.” But aven this will bo of no avail if they merely carry tho State, Unless they can elect Wirutaxs by 10,000 or 15,000 nnjority the prostigo will be lost, and Hex- pnrees will bo regarded 68 a uscless ap- pendago to the ticket. Our frionds in Indiana, thorefors, havo hardly to be reminded of the importance of tho struggle on their hands. If thoy defeat ‘Witnuars in October, they proetically end the campnign, They strip Tipex of the voto whith is essentinl to his clection ; thoy proclaim tho certsinty of his defent; and they insure the immedinte dismemberment of tho nlliance botween hard money and the rog-baby, and rendor Havrs' clection cor- tain by a majority greater than that of GRANT ovor GreELEY, THE CONFEDERATE SUPREMACY. In tho reigu of the Demooratic party be- foro the War, theSouthern wing of tho party claimed and held control of all the important Committces in Congress, Whenover n va- enney occurred in the Chairmanship of a Committeo a Southern man was sppointed. Douoras, who had been 12 years Chairman of the Committee on 'Territories,” refnsed to vole to admit Kansns under thg Lecompton Constitution, and was deposed by vote, and n Missouri Senator put in his place. {n this way at last thero was but ona Northern man left as Chairman of a Benato Committéo, and that was Jrsoe D, Borant.

T Hanmus, Georgln, Here nre noless than twenty-four of the Commit{ces of the House to which the Coxn- federates have been appointed as Chairmen, to tho oxclusion, of course, of 5o many Northern Democrats, Northern Democrats were not appointed Chairmen of more than five Comnmittoes baving tho least importance or control of public affairs, This, consider- ing thnt it was, the first session for twonty years that the Democrats had o majority in tho House, shows that tho Confederstos re prepared to claim tho samo supremacy that thoy nlways exorcised when the Democratic party was in o majority. Tho clection of Trivex and the Democeratio party to power is to hand over the whole Gavernment to tho ex-Confederates. THE BEAL HOPE ¥OR THE BOUTH, Ex-Attorney-Ganeral Axzmaay, of Georgin, has written o lotter to the Chairman of the Indiana Répuablican Stste Committeo, The goneral seopo of the letter in o the effect that the real welfare of Goorgis, and if of Georgin then of ‘all the other Southern States, is dependont upon a continuanco of TRepublienn rule. ‘This argument is clinched by Mr, Axenyan with statistics which aro simply unanswerable, Undor the Republic. an Administration, from 1868 to 1872, the wonlth of tho Stato increased at the annual averngo rate of six and ninc-tenths por cent, Under the Democratio Administration, from 1872 to 1875, it incrensed only twoand eight- tentha par cent, showing a falling-off of moro than one-third. A more complete answer to the .Confederate nssertion that Itadical rule is ruining tho Bouth could not Lo farnished. Tho rcasons for this striking coutrast in tho results of the two Administra- tions are clear. Tho tendency of the Ropub. liean Administration was to bring tho State into harmony with the Goneral Government and the sentiment of the Northern peoplo, and to cultivate a friendly and harmonious fuoling botweon tho two racos, Buch o harmony ns this assured both races in the presorvation of their rights and privileges, secured honest cleotions, and brought about peace and good order, obedience to and en- forcement of the laws. It inspired Nerthern capitalints with confldonce in the people, and Northern money found its wgy to that Ktato, edpecintly in the northern sections, and aided its mnterial growth by stimulating both agriculturo aud manufactures, During those four years, Atlanta way tho most prosperous city in the whole South, and from every part of the Stato camo assurauces of future prosperity, Damoeratio trickery . at the bellot-box, and Confederate intimidation and violenco offcred to tho lower raco, changed the character of tho Adininiotration, and ahmost imwmediately the growth of the Btato camo to o stondstill. Thoe Btate was 10 longer in barmony with the Genoral Gov- crnment; on the other hand, thoe old rebell. ions spirit revived. ‘Ihe dogma of State Rights was ogain sot prominently before the peoplo, Seetionaliam, justead of Unionism, was ita ontgrowth, Tho harmonious reln. tions formerly cxisting with the North disap- poared, or wore 6o weakenad that Northern men liesitated to go to Georgia, and Northorn capital sought surer nnd less dangeyous invest- went, The old spitit of slavery revived, and counnenced to disfranchise and crush out the blacks. White-Liners and Ku-Klux shot, burned, and plundored. Wrongs of every de- geription wero heaped upon the unfor- tunate megroos, The Htate Govern. wmont, which had been their frivnd, dosorted them, and they wero left withiout protection. Violence, disorder, and twnults continually occurred, and at last the Domacratio Administration succoeded in ar- reating t}le material progress of tho Stato, and checking the tide of immigration which had commenced to flow into the State nnder Republican auspicos. 'Ihat is what Dowmo-. cratio rule has done for Goorgin, Tho ultimate purposes of the Domocratic Stato Govermmont ara beginning to be appn- rent. "Who ex-slave-mastera ara determined not only to dwsfranchise the negro, but to dispossoss hitm of nll landed title, The Logislaturo has nlready onacted that a negro ahiall not voto who 'has uot pnid his Inst yoar's taxes, It is mow considering other ways of hampering tho suffrage, which will freatrict the negro but not interfere with the whites, It ia nlso framing ennctments eo ns to crush out the nogro as n land-ownor, and reduco him to thoe level of achattel by bring- ing his labor under white control. Mr, Mo- Kisprey, in his address boforo the Agrient- tural State Convention, enunciated thio fol- lowing proposition, which hes everywhero met with Democraticapproval: * The South- em whito people must remain absalute own. ors of tho ultimate title of tho entiro lands of tho South. Puro blood and supreme land. titlo nra the first moxims of onr Sonthorn public policy, and must be impressed upon all our Inws and all ouwcourts;” and Bex My, who has publicly declared that the negro must be driven out of the State, reit- crates the proposition of MoKinprey in his declaration that, when the Genoral Govern. ment passes into Democratic hands, “we can control our Inbor.” Thai is, there is to be no more land for negroes nud Northerners, The * pure blouds,” by which term is ineant tho ex-lave masters and Rebols of the Toomns and Ben Hiun stripe, are to hold ‘all the land, * Controlling our labor"! What does this mean but the reduction of the working class to elavery, while the “pure blood"” lives off its labor? This is Bouthorn Democracy! This is tho programme Inid ont for enjoyment when the union of Southern Confederates and North- orn Copperliends sl gecuro tho clection of TiprN and Hespricks. In view of this public declaration by Southern men, the nupuh}icnn party has a doublo duty to por- form.+ It should continua its power not only for tho benefit of the North, Lut also for the sake of tho materinl prosperity of the South, It'is due to the Union mon aud the negroos of tho South that thoy shall not be dolivored ovor o tha bondnags of the ‘pure blood.” Every man in tho South hos tho right to vote. Let him not be disfranchised. Every moan in.the South has tho right to own land nnd enjoy the fruita of his labor. Let him not bo dispossessed. THE ILLINOIS SUPREME COURYT, Homa weeks nggo Tnr Triune called the sttontion of the legal profession and the pub- lic genernlly to the ndmitted fact that the Supreme Conrt of thisState has n larger share of responsibility and nctual labor put upon it than it can dischnrge well and faithfully, As the Court is just convened at Ottawa, wo print an interviow with a Chicago lawyer, who is perfectly familinr with the work and practice of tho Court, and o referenco to his statemonts will show fully that the facts bear out the danger of increased complications in thie Inw books and now ocensions for litiga- tion, There are about 700 cases coming bo- fora the Court now ; Inst yesr 1,250 casos woro brought to it. Ao theno aro only soven Judges, oven & fair division of the work would leavo about 200 cases to each Judge, which is moro than one man can examino thorough-, 1y ond pass upon finally ; but ouch division ronlly vitintes the theory of the Suprome Court, which, being the Court of last resorf, ought to give tho combined experience, learn- ing, and research of the soven Judges to overy case thot comes under its considern- tion. This is simply out of the quostion under the presont system, Tho result is, that thoe cases ore divided, and the Judges aro forced, ns a ruls, to rely upon the find- ing of n singlo ono of thoir mimber who is himself overworked, or, at most, two or threo to each case. Tho result has been a rories of reversals and contradictions in the decigions which incumber the law-books, confuse the Inwyers, and incrense litigation, Many instances of theso contradictions ave cited in the interview wo print, and some of them have beon: found even in so simpla n matter of commercial law as the making of o, promissory mnote. It is not astonishing that (ho Illinois decisions command diminished réspect in other States, and someanotionof the confusion and Inck of confidence may be found in the circumstanco that thore are some sovonty- cight piotitions for rehearing ponding at the prosont sossion, The Supremo Judges havo dotermined this yoar, wo are informed, to consider only a comparatively small numbor of the cases that have been brought before thom, I'ho dotormination is a wiko ono in so far asit will enable them to treat well and consclen- tiously tho cases which they aotually con. sider, but it will necessarily leave un aceu- mulation of cases to grow from year to yoar until the Court shall Lo hopelessly involved. The only permancnt remedy for the ovilisn change in the systom. As it is now, avery dispute at law, no mnatter how trivial, con Do carried to the Bupreme Court, and has an equal claim upon the considera. tion of thnt tribunal. A desire for delny or motives of apita get & hearing whera n fow dollurs aro involved us well as the most jm- portant principlo of jurisprudence. The remedy flrt suggestod by Tue Trinune is approved by tho lawyer whose statemonts wa print this morning, It {a to creato inter. mediate Appellate Courls, which shall huve authority to disposs of cases originating in tho Justices' Courts, and nlso thoso the final determination of whidh rests upon the con. struction of the facts. This system would loave the Supreme Court open only to cases involving the validily and construction of tho statutes, now questions of law certified by the intermediats Courle, questions of franchiso und frecholds, and law-snits in which tho jsmwe hns o valne of more than $500, The Logislature haa the power o creato these intermedinto Courts and detormine their choractor nnd duties. They should bo created by tho next Legislature in order to afford n quick relief to a very sorl- ‘ous embarrnssment; if delayed longor, it may be necessnry to resort to o constitntional scheme for a temporary Commlssion of Ap. peals, such a8 was adopted in Now York, to disposo of tho acoumulations on the Su. prome Court docket, Cortain it is that, no wmatter how uplo our Supreme Judges may be, nor how consciontiously they may dis- charge thelr daties, the law of Illinols, s construed by that Court, will always be more or lesa vacillating and contradictory, until it shall bo able to give all. questions of law the deliberate and mataro consideration of all tha Judges which they demand. o The trial of the Hamburg murderers hns beon postponed until the nest January termn of the Court; As the munlerors aro to be acquitted, and afterwards lionized, it has probably beeu considered advisable to post. ‘pone that business until after the election, NEPTEMBER: 12, 1876 . s Their ncquittal now might satisfy many peo. = pla that law and justics have no weight in the South as agninst white mon who merely PROF, 8WING OXN SCIENCE AND RELIGION.

THE MISSISSIPPI PLAK IN SOUTH CARO- LINA. The Iletter from n gonlleman in South Carolina to Gen, Burren, which was priated in tho lnst fssue of Tus Tuinuxk, sels forth the operntions of tho Mississippi plan in that Wo reproduco tho following exirnot from the Btato with startling clearncss of detail, lottor: A Republican meeting ta callod In_somo county Intho Btate, at which, of tourse, it is oxpected that few besides Republicans will be preeent, Dat what s the fact, and what is the modus operandi 1et mo tell you from mny own experience, for I have now boen present ot five of theae meetings during the past threo wecks, About tho time the hour of mueting arrives hundreds of monnted, armed white Democrata ride Into town, snrrovnd the stand, and, to nll Intenta and purpoacs, take virtunl posscesion Yuou are, of course, aware of (he fact that the great bulk of the Ropublican party of thin thereof. and all othier Soutlsrn Stateu s maide up of colored men, Theso men attend the -mectings unarined, und consequently are in no condition to defend themselvos from tho Insnlts and jeors of she Do- mocracy. Even If they wero anned; o8 undrilled, ,uncducated, and undlsciplinod as they are, you can at once sec that they wonld never stand beforo the trained veterans of tho Confederacy, for thoso are what muko up the Democratic party in this Htate at lenst, South Caroling is as decidedly Ropublican #s Town, Kansas, or Narthorn Ilinois. ‘Would the Republicans of thesé Btates per- mit Domocrats to surround their meotings with armed horsemen, firing pistols, bran- dishing bowio-knives, and demanding the right to divido time at Rapublican meotings, and using insolting and opprobrious lan- guago to their spenkers? In any Demo- cratio State, wonld Democrats allow Ropub- Ticaus to divido timo with thom and controb their moetings? Cortalnly not. Short work would be mado of the scoundrels in both casen. If, thonm, tho white Republicans of tho North would be justified in protecting themselves by force, why are not the negro Ropnblicans of the South justified in de~ fouding themselves also from Democrntic in- terforonca? 'Tho colored Republicans of thoe South must. bo- taught to sirike back nt the Confederates and do- fond their ' rights just ns their white brethren in the North do, and if nec- essary fight it out to the bitter end. The Confederates must be tanght thoe lesson of respecting the righta of their political oppe- nents, however bitter or bloody that lesson may be. It is only simple justico. Ropub- licans in the South have just the same rights as Republicaus in 'the North, and, when those righta aro tranpled upon, have the same jus- tifiention in dofending thom. It is timo that thio Mississippi plan of enabling the minority to rmle the majority wos squelched, not only in Missisglppi, but in South Carolina and every other Btate,~—in Texas, where by legis- Intive enactmont a negro convictod of a trifling misdemeanor is sold into a_sertdom, which is tantamount to slavery, fora term of Lnife in . Mississippi, dated from voting; in Alsbama, where the ballot-box is controlled and stuffed by tho ‘White.Liners; in Goorgia, whero ho is dis- possessed of his land; in Bouth 'Cnrnh:nn, whero ho is assasainated if e presumes to in Louisiona, whero the distranchise him; where ho . s intimi. years; and revolver exercise tha priviloges guaranteed him by the Constitution. The Mississippi plan, howaver, will never be smashed by allowing the General Government to full into Demo- cratic hands, Its infamigs will only be in- cronsed until thoe Fifteonth Amondment is nullified by placing such restrictions upon tho negro ns will not only disfranchiso hifn, but virtually remand him to Wlavery, The only safety to the Ropublicans of the South, tho,only guarantec of poace and ordor in that distracted section, lies in tho election of o Ropublican Administration, The theologists still owe somothing to e“}:«u. whom many of them o from tha inner circle of the defendors of tho crceds. Ile met the nnd gavo nmoro satisfactory demonstration for intelligent people that religion is in no danger from tho progress of matericlism than onforcod faith, traditioual inspiration, hered. itary creeds, dictatorial dogma, and stifled apprehiensions have over been ablo to pro. dnco. His opportunity for this was mainly if his porsonal indepondence of the iron. ‘bouna form and symbols which hold down mout professors of theology to the theorles of tho past and unfit them for tho religions intorprotation of the theories of the present. Ho ia one of o class of thinkers who will Le able to hormonize sclentific discoveries with religious percoptious, terinl rosoarch with spiritual aspl. rations, The practice has been ¢ to rogard tho solentist and theologiat as frre- concilablo, Formerly, whon heratice wore burnt at the stakoe, tha sclentifie investigator whas ot o disadvantage, and he praclaimed his dincoveries or theories ot the poril of his ex. istence, Of Inte, scienco woems to have bo- como the bolder school, and the theologist holds back as if-in vory foar that concession will betray him into the sacrifico and abau. donment of his doctrine. It is only whon men like 8wixa step to the front and give tho solentist and theologist equal reapect’and cousideration that thinking people, unap- patled’ at tho progress of sciontific discovory, but also hopeful of continued religious influ. cnces, find a rosponso to their santimenta, Prof, Swino has approached materialitm from the religions starting-point ns n bold ond confident man approaches two nggress- ive nntagonists whosa enmity resis upona misspprohension, and it is in tho light of renson end in tho epirit of con- sideration that he socks to explain away the dissenaions which they apprehend must complotély annibilate ono theory or the other and disperse oue fuction or the other, Tlo reduces the controversy to tho simplost phaseby examining the question whother the materialiam to which Trvpary, Huxzy, Danwy, and others lead their followors ox. cludes the belief in o porsonal God and a fu. ture life, 'T'his is tho issue, Christianity is only incjdental to it, for, es Prof, SwiNa says, *tho lifo, and death, and wholo history of Christ, in its most vital parts, aro no more dopending for crodibility upon an 'inspired history than tho crossing of the Delaware by ‘WasuinaTox or the carcor of Czean are de- ponding for human accoptance upon the fn. spiration Of. those who wrote down the evants.” Doity and immortality are the sa. crod things which roligion must rescue from the matorislists, and here is where Bwuia meets the new philosophors. ‘Tho first point he makes iy that the now theories are only theories, neither nxiomatio m themaselves not as yet absolutely domon. strated; as such, tbey are entitled to the sawe considoration as tho dogwas of a relig- ivus systew, Lut no more, . 'They may bese- and mn. nade trum the batl (o the plalfor copted as thoy commend themselves to hu. man porcoption, reason, or oxperionce, and rojoctod aa thoy fail to onthrall the intetli. genco, They nre not to bo meoffed ot or trampled undor foot; but neither ara they to bo Llindly adopted to the exclusion of all apiritnal theories. Placing the mnterial and tho spiritunl on tho same footing ns rognrds respect and trenttnont, the next point is that an admission of the corructness of tho modern {theorics of tho formation aud growth of life in no wise inter- foros with o bolief in God and a futtre lifo, Iowover far back and to how- ever low a degroe the dovelopment of life may bo traced, tho Klen of Doity remains nt the germ, Tho Mosaie theory was a creation from dust, tho Darwininn theory a develop- mont from tho mollusk, the Moxner theory a material. growth from protoplasm, the ex- tremo matorinlist theory that of spontancons goneration, but none of them oxcludes the iden of original creation, nor the porception of n conscious and intolligent Deity. The difference is that we must look for the hand of the Doity in the sunbsam aud the drop of water, to which spontancous genora- tion, go.called, owes its faculty; and Prof. Bwio evan finds an im- provemont ovor the formulated dogina of n Deity under the person of a man located at an infinite distance in the all-pervadihg presonco of God in evory phose of nature, As to immortality, Trof. Bwina's notion is that materinlism cannot so contract its sphiore a3 to exclude fuinra life, bocause o vux.t, searching, and potent sn investigation will not alop at donth nor confina itweif to the past, Tha sama vigorous and ambitious in- veatigation that has ovolved mow theories of this life “will shake again tho ums of dnst and pour sut us childron ngnin in tho Iand that is far away.” Thus the tablos are fairly turncd against those who would deduct atheism and deny immortality from materialinn. Perhaps the socret of Prof, 8wiia's successful trentmont of the most important roligious disputation of the timo may bo found in the following extract from his discourse: Thus as & fact none of the recent theories of Mr. TuxLey or Mr. Danwin shonld disturh tho faith of either Delst or Christian, Theso theories touch only the'manner of the creation, hut do not give us any mew Creator. Driven by them from the Garden of Eden, God reappears in the far-oft mi- croscople germ; drlven from that by the notion of spontancons life, the =amo Godreappears In the el- ements where tha **epotancous 1ifo" cradles i} self. While as a factthiese theorfes should not dis- tarh the worship In tho temple, yet, ana fact, also they da ta somedegree palwy the oid and keepback the young in thele rellpious belief, thought, and emotion, But these results come partly from the fmpulse of the heart to feel that.ar innovation I a raln, and greatly from the fact that we have all Dbeen resred in n roligioun narrowness and dogma. tiam which taught us that the chanze of a letter or of an Idea meant infidelity, heresy, and dostrnction, The theologleal restraint of the past left us oll i1)- prepared to meot any new views from any aclenco or philosophy ot any time or plade. Aa tho slaves scarricd In long sea vayages, doublod down between Qecke, were for the most part nnable to walk wheu the prison-ship had 1shded and théy were ordered out into the open alr, ro we all,borne for hungdrods of years In the theolngleal prison-ahips, landing at Taat, find onrecives almost unable o walk or stand aloue on the open slisre of this greut éontury. Hnd not somo time clapsed sinco Bwixa o:enped from his prison-ship it is not likely that he wounld have been abla to walk erest _and tusslo with the matorinlists on thoir own gronnd, The dogmatists should not with- hold their gratitude from him in spite of their disfellowship, for it isonly by such harmonizing as Swixo's that religion can continue to exercisa its beneficent influenco " over society, and brush away-alike the super- stitions of the past and’the dangers of aterinlism, > ‘TOE IRIBH IN IRELARD: —_— An Trish meeting was held at Dublin Aog. 21, Mr, DuTT, the great * Home-Rule” member of Farlfament, presided.
