Religious Notes From all Parts of the Country FOR PREACHER AND HIS HEARERS How to Deal With Sinners—A Presby- terian Reunion—A New Origin of Methodism—General Religious Inteligence and News. Fanciatism in Spain. There is a very remarkable phase of religious fanaticism in the little village of Tolox, in the province of Malaga, which led to a state prosecution, writes a correspondent of the London Chron- icle. The devotees of the religion, I may call to mind, took itinto their heads, or rather, were led to believe b; their leader, a woman who declare herself a prophetess, that the highest form of religion was to conduct the mundane affairs of this life in the simple garb of Adam and Eve before the fall. This was bad enough, and led, as I have said to the intervention of the crown, but it was not their only divergence from the ways of ordinary mortals, another portion of their doc- trine being to inflict upon themselves wounds in the hands, breast and feet, such as are shown in representation of the crucifixion. They also burnt all, or nearly all, their worldly possessions, In the belief that a higher power would rovide them with food. Their be- avior, indeed, was such that, as stated, the government felt called upon to in- terfere, and a day or two ago a number of leaders of this strange sect were put upon their trial. Already the most ex- traordinary revelations have been made, apart from what may be called the spiritual manifestations which these misguided people declare have been made to them. The most interesting feature in connection with the trial has been the experiments in hyponotism, which have been made on the defend- ants by medical specialists,thisbeing the first time hypnotism has been resorted to in Spain in the interests of justice. In nearly every case the defendants proved to "be good subjects. Many of the experiments tried by the doctors were of the most extraordinary char- acter. One of the accused, for instance when in a state of hypnotism, on being ordered to perspire, broke out almost in astate of profuse perspiration, while another, who was ordered to ascend a very high mountain, being the while in an ordinary room, behaved as if he were actually climbing, his breathing be- coming difficult and his heart beating violently. When this man was told that he had reached the summit and might rest awhile the symptoms of ex- haustion gradually disappeared. Others were pricked with long pins and gave no evidence of feeling what was being ‘done to them, - The trial will last sev- eral days longer and will probably re- sult in merely nominal punishment be- ing imposed upon the recused, who for the most part seem to be merely harm- less, weak-minded peope. Dealing With Sinners. London Telegraph: Zealous preach- ers have always been in a difficulty to decide what is the best way of appeal- ing to the consciences of their congre- gations, Should the homilist make his denunciations of vice and his admoni- tions to virtue too general in their character, there is reason to fear that his flock will not profit greatly by coun- sels which will seem to have no direct and personal relations to themselves Tverybody’s sin, like everybody’s bu ness, is nobody’s, and the preacher’s hearers will listen with complacency to the worst he can say of it. If, on the pther hand, he endeavors to give a touch of reality to his discourse, to in- fuse into it a dash of the concrete by sketehing a sinner from some model within his mental, or roasibly his physi- cal vision, there is the danger lest the portrait should be recoguized as that of some actual or supposed original, well known to those present, and the result will be more productive of scandal than edification. The exact course be- tween the Scylla of platitude and the Chavybdis of personality 18 hard to dis- cern and navigate; and most preachers, 1s we are painfully aware, avoid it by keeping well on the side of the former of the two dangers above mentioned, * * Still there is not the least reason— though, of course, there is for incompe- tency and indolence a grave temptation —to keep the sermon abstract and un- real, in order to avoid the risk of ap- pearing to *preach at” several membors of the flock. The text may be so handled, the lesson so inculeated, the pensure so conveyed that all prosent shall feel how admirably practical is the preacher’s treasment of his subject, and every hearer of the sermon will re- oognize how direct, how salutary, hcw unmistakable is the application to his neighbor, Smith the grocer will lean comfortably back in his seat while the reacher s denouncing commercial raud, and will reflect, almost with a feeling of compassion. *‘How hard this hits poor Brown;” while Mrs. Gamp listens to his warnings against the vice of intemperance with a pious hope that Betsy Prig will not fail tolay them to heart. The pulpit moralist has only to avoid those last touches of de- lineation which fix the original of the portrait, and his sermon nay positively ‘palpitate with actuality” without giv- ing offense to any one. It is the blessed privilege of humanity not to recoguize unfavorable representations of itself except under thestrongest possible pres- sure. That power to which Burns surely in irony---appealed, and which was to give us the gift 01 seeing our- selves as others see us, has never yot done any very extensive businessamong the race of men; and, to judge from the fact that human complacency does not appear to diminish as the age of the world increases, it does not secem prob- able that the number of persons who are able to take the ‘‘detached” view of themselves is ever likely to be very much larger than it is at present. A Presbyterian Reunion. The scheme for Presbyterian reunion has probably received a very serious getback in the remarkable action of the Louisville Presbytery on the subject, says the State Telegraph. The sum and substance, in fact, of the Louisville res- olution is simply this: We are hope- lessly divided at this time, therefore let us not discuss the subject, but, in the curious language of the Louisville brethren,‘*await the unfoldings of God’s providence in the future.” Verily a color line still exists, and race prejudice is as firmly rooted as in the days when the black man had no rights which the white man was bound to rvespect. Indeed, these Kentucky Presbyterians go further and actually demand that their own benighted south- ern custom of fencing off the colored people by themselves, into separate churches and ecclesiastical organiza- tions, shall be adopted by the northern branch of the church. They know full well that this will never be done, and it looks very much as though they had de- " clared such a hopeless policy for the ex- press purpose of being “‘left alone,” as was the southern plea twenty-five years ago when the greal object was to dis- rupt thel union.~ The action of the Louisville Presbytery is an infinite dis- credit to the southern church,a sad blow to evangelical christianity and casts a dark and hopeless shadow over the hitherto growing cause of christian union. ANew Origin Attributed to Methodism The following is from Dr. Eggleston’s illustrated paper in the May Century: ‘“About 1679 there spraug up in England what were known as the ‘religious so cieties,” and though a great part of the religious history of England and her colonies in the eighteenth century lay in embryo in that movement. we cannot now tell the name of its originator or the source of his inspirations. It is pos- sible that somo stray seed from Spener’s pietistic meetings in Germany had een wafted across the channet, but it is more probable that the English socie- ties were indigenous. The members of these obscure associations stirred up one another to devotion, und sorted to the communion of the pu churches in & body. It was the phe- nomenon so often seen in the world’s religious history—ecclesia in ecclesia— a church growing within a church that had lost the power to satisfy the aspira- tions of the human spirit. ~ About 1691, adozen years after their beginning, some of these associations came uuder the influence of the reformatory im- pulse seta going by the revolution of 1688, and by this means losing their merely pietistic character, they under- took to co-operate for the suppression of the prevalent vices of the time. Three or four years later the hidden leaven of these societies began to make tself felt as a force to be reckoned with, and Queen Mary and Archbishop Tillotson thought 1t worth while to lend their approval to this new movement, which had grown while sovereigns and prelates slum- bered and slept. By 1701 there were twenty allied societies for the reforma- tion of manners in the British island besides forty devout societics’ of the original kind, The most conspicuous outgrowth of the devout societies wa the Methodist movement of the eigh- teenth century, though I donot know that the connection has ever beforo been pointed out. lled ‘Holy Club,’ of Oxford, from whi issued the We leys and Whitfield, appears to have boen merely one of the veligious so- cicties which had alvready flourished for fifty years, and some of which were still in existence thirty yours later. From this same familiar model Wesley doubtless borrowed the outlines of the plan that resulted in the more highly organized Methodist societies out of which in time have come the great Methodist bodies,” Russian Religious Pessimism. Isakni, a Russian, writer, gives some astounding cases of religious pessimism in that coun Sects have ropeatedly avison that teach suicide, and practice it wholesale, Ono night eighty-four persons met in a cay filled with steuw. The police discovered their intent and pursued them. But they fired the straw, and those that were not burned killed each other with hatchets —one only excepted, The Jumpers have a chief priest whom they call God, They do nothing but pray, jump and contort themselves, closing service with an all-round kiss, One group adds scourging, They eat as little as pos- sible, often letting their children die of hunger, and they forbid the simplest amusements. They believe that they only are true christians, and aflirm that Christ will come to set up a kingdom of a thousand years. Theirextravagances have often been duplicated in our own Bigotry and conceit are alent to decoit at all times, Prob- ¢ the luw of temperance, justice and industry contains the best vation, Religious Conviction. Chicago Times: Judge Horton has just heard the statement of Mr. ‘Drane, clerk, who .stook in court yesterday i & golden-haired little hoy beside him, Mr. Drane had com- plained that his wife, who deserted him two years ago, had tried to abduct the boy, who was twining his chubby fing- ersin his father’s watchchain shnufd remain in Mr. Drane’s custody, when a small, feeble voice was heard in the oty “Please, judge, will you hear “Come forward,” said the judge, kindly. “What is it? Who are you?" All that was immediately visible was a pair of bouncing boys, two-year-old twins, who were crowing prodigiously on a back seat. Presently there emerged from behind the ?)ounving boys a weak, thin, pale little woman, who, advancing to the centre of the court, looked at the judge, pointed to the pretty child who stood besides Mr. Drane, and said, “Please sir, I'm his mother.” ‘‘And whose are those babies yon- der?” asked the court. ‘““Please sir, they're mine,” said the little woman, “Ah, then you are Mrs. Drane. me your story.” “1 left my “husband two yearsago,” said she. *‘I was forced toleave him. God told me to leave him.” B “Why?” asked the court. “Because he had been divorced. I had joined a religious community, and the members told me that God forbade me too live with a divorced man. I loved him dearly sir, and I loved my boy; and I loved the two little children that were born to me. ButGod forbade me to live any longer under their father’s roof.” “Did_ your babies?” ““Yes, he was good. I worked for my own living, and my husband sent me $3 every weok until afew months ago. And then I learned from a member of my religious community that by paying for my children he galned the right to take them away. And [ would rather die than let them go.” . "{fJ’:n why did you take your eldest oy “Because I want him, too. God for- bids me have a husband, but He does not take my children from me.” *‘How could you support the boy?” “How have I supported the twins? Avrc they not as healthy as he is? O, Judge, I would work so hard for him. T love to work and my heart yearns for him so. O, sir, I entreat you,do not keep me from my boy.” “We will sce,” said Judge Horton, moved. ‘‘Be patient. The child will remain with his father for a fortnight more* and by that time perhaps all may be happily arranged.” A few minutes later a little group was clustered at the court house door. The father, holding the golden-haired boy by one hand, clasped with the other the il fingers of his poor little wife, and her tears fell fast upon the twins, who blinked at the sunlight,wondering. —— RELIGIOUS NOTES, The latest figures show that there are 16,- 449,000 Sunday school scholars in'the world Rov.

The shooting of a big dog by a French cus- tom house officer in tho north of France has given rise to some queer stories in the French papers. The oficer shot the dog because he was suspiciously fat.

In this coat the dog carried several hundred cigars. “It,” @ remarkable cat, died at Putnam, Conn., last week. The animal had seven logs and two tails.
