Savage has been teaching in Botton, according to = newspaper report, that the Eible from beginning to end is nothing but ma- terisliem, Te eays that the Evolutionists necd otbe dismoyed because they are called athelste. “Anazazoras was considered an atheist because Betsusht the sun was no god, but a fiery mass of matter; Kepler, with bis new planet’ theory, was 10 atheist; Newton, with his new férce, gravita- fion, was an atheist; Laplace, with his nebular iypothesis, was an atheist: Socrates was an athe- 15t; and Jesus Himeelf became an athelst when He aght that God was not upon the mountain or in the valley, and that not alone in Jernsalem shonld Hebe worshiped: that He was everywhere."” A correspondent of the Atfantic sends to that de- Iehtful new department called ** The Contrib- wors’ Club, " acrispand bright opinion of Mr. B Harte's writings: **I am bound to own,” wrtes the correepondent, *‘that some of Mr. Turte's best work, if nag most of his best work, has Men donc since he came from California.

Hancock went to the Tucific coast, i so plausibly explained by the New tYork Tribune that there is a strong temptation to evditit, even although it bas since been authori- titively denfed. Itseems that Gen.

Sheridan, whio has been baniched to Chicago these Ty years.
