church leader. His death was the

career at Oxford bypbtaining a schoIl Iip

cal'prizes in 1840, when he wo‘s‘electe’d‘a fel-
low of University College. He was for twelve
years tutor of his college, was select preach-
er in 1845-6, and from 1850 to 1852 was
secretary of the Oxford University commis-
sion. He was canon of Canterbury from
1851 till 1858; reglns professor of ecclesias-
tical history at Oxford, and canon of Christ
church, and chaplain to the Bishop of Lon-
don from 1858 till 1863, when he be-

’Dr. Stanley first became known. Ito thellt-
erary world by his admirable “Life of Dr.
Arnold," published in 1844. 'Siucethat time
his published writings have been numerous

most of them being on theological or relig-
ious subjects. His 'great fame, however;
rests on his positions as the leading represen-
tative of that branch of the church Which has;
come to be known as the “broad church”

party, and he preferred to devOte his life:
and influence solely to the promulgation of?
liberal ideas in religion rather than to aspire

to prefermeht in' the church: For this rea-

Westminstcr offered him a better field for
the work on which he had set his heart.
How wise his decision was is attested by the
fact that be attained alreputation grind influ-

all his contemporaries among‘ithe expound-
ers of liberal views of religious life and be—
lief. For his eloquence as a_sermouizer and

and admiration. In the fall of 1878 Dean
Stanley visited this country for the benefit of
his health. . " »

 

The Month of July. » .

The shooting of the president has drawn
out the fact that the month of July has
been prolific of good and bad events in Our
national history. .A patient investigator has
discovered thnt four presidents hay, died in
July; that Braddock’s defeat occurred On
the 9th of J ulv, 1755 ; the terrible massacre
of Wyoming was. in July, 1778; the storm-
ing of Stony Point took place July 16, 1779;
the battle of Bull Run took place July 21,
1861 ; on the 1st July, 1862, was fought
the battle of Malvern Hill, the last of Gen-
eral McClellan’s disastrous six days fighting
before Richmond; onJuly 1, 1862, presi—
dent Lincoln issued his eall for 300,000 addi-
tional troops. 0n the other side we have
the victory at Gettysburg.:I July 4, 1863,
the surrender of . Vicksburg, and five
days later the surrender of Port Hudson ; on
the 17th'ofv the same month, 1863, General
Sherman routed the rebel General Johnson,
and Occupied Jackson; Miss. ;. on the 20th of
the same month ended Morgan’s raid into
Indiana and Ohio, by his surrender, with his
entire force, to General Shackleford. On
the13th of July, I863, occurred the bloody
draft riots in New York. The property de-
stroyed amounted to $1,500,000. Boston had
a similar riot on the 15th of the same month
but it was promptly quelled. On July 14,
1874, took place the second great fire of Chi-
cago, which destroyed some $2,500,090 in
value of property. In July, 1877, took
place the great railroad riots ‘at Baltimore,
Philadelphia, Chicago, Buffalo, Readiugznnd
Pittsburg, Penn, and Other places}; At
Pittsburg $2,000,000 worth of property was
destroyed.’ _ ‘ _

 

 

Every Evening,'a'leadingIIIdaily journal of
Wilmington, Deb, makes a. vigorous .protiist
against the frequent assertion and generalfi
belief that " iron ssthS canibeigbqilt. more
cheaply in England than in this country.
Without defending Mr. Roach’s appeal for
subsidies,and without denouncing the propo-
sition for allowing Americans to buy ships.
abroad, the Wilmington paper, representing
the center of the. iron ship building ofthis
country, asserts that it is possible to'build
iron ships as cheaply here as in England or
Scotland. The American practice of. adopt
ing labor—saving machinery has, it says,
greatly reduced or quite obliterated the
former difference inIIcost..,_ Some kind of
iron ships can-nowbe bought Imbre cheaply
abroad than here,'bnt*'taking‘ qualify into
consideration the Delaware builders are not
more exhorbitant in their prices than those of
the Clyde.

The difficulty with these disaffected mem.
bers Occurred as follows: A report was cir-
culating in the church that the.»pastor' had
'left‘Morristown, N. J ., for Norwalk;9‘in or-
der to escape discipline” in the fermer place.
This report was traced to Mr. James Sher-
wood, who acknowledged having' made a
statement to that effect. It was deemed best

and'trustee orifigmm‘ri‘sgw‘h‘gureh come
to Norwalk. When, the: pastor. asked Mr.
Sherwood to come to hisghonse did meet this
mismanditheréhuietly' talle‘o'ver the matter;
immediately Mr. S. threwup his hands and
shouted to the pastor to leave the store and

then usefifprthnyftley of offensive epi-
i-ai i 3' 3 ‘5 ,

“ The”‘p°asf6r very,_",soon after saw Mr. S;
privately and tried to reconcile the matter,
but with no success. A. week or two later
the pastor with another member visited Mr.
8., but he indignantly repelled all approaches
to settlement. Nearly a year later, when
approached by ag'member to effectascttle-
meut, he replied, “I will diein my tracks
before I will be'reconeiled to Mr. Bentley.”

The difficulty with Mr. Giles Gregtyy was
as follows: _It_ was, currently reported and
believed that Mr. Gregory had money invest-
ed with his son ,who was in the liquor busi-
ness in Norwalk, and Mr. G. was offended
because the pastor took nctivc part in en-
forcing the law during the year of “No Li-
cense" whereby Mr.Gregory lost considerable
money. The pastor having Some business
relations with Mr. Charles Un'derhill urged
upon him the accounting .fOr some," $300,
which Mr. U. refused to account for and out
of this grew the personal difficulty.

The prudential committee unanimously
agreed to present these threecases to the
church for discipline, believing that by so
doing the difficulties would be happily ad—
justed. ;. _ ‘

At thenext businessmceting of the church
the three were presented. for discipline and
the committees usual in such cases appointed.

which was very large,:the reports of theI

favorable results and their5 reports accepted

as those of. progress, and 'the co mmittees
continued without a dissenting vote. During

the next two weeksIthe delinquents were

visited by the pastor and the- differences

talked over in a kindly spirit, and in every

"case it was, believed that a reconciliation

would be effected in ashort time. At a sec-

ond meeting. of the prudential committee, all

the members being present. the cases" "Of dis.

cipline were freely canvassed and no dissent
expressed._ The pastor then stated that ru-

mors had come to him'of an attempt to have

him resign and thus the discipline of the

three members would be quashed, for one of

them, speaking for all, had expressively said,

“If Mr. Bentley is cleared out we will all

.take our places in the church.” It was then

said by the pastor that any attempt to com-

pass his resignation while these cases of dis-

cipline were before the church must rend the

church and would be resisted by him to the.
extent of his ability-

The next day Mr. J. L. Ambler, a member
of the prudential committee who had agreed
to the discipline of the delinquents, came
out openly against the pastor and said to one
of the deacons, “All the influence I have is
for Mr. Sherwood and against Mr. Bentley.”
Mr. A. bad for some days been plotting se-
cretly against the pastor. A few days later
a private meeting was called at the house of
Mr. Ambler for the purpose of consulting
with the “largest paying members.” There
were present besides Mr. Anibler, Dr. G. S.
Comstock, Deacon D. M. Fillow, Mr. Frank
Fillow, Deacons R. A. Fillow and Samuel
Arlington. The two latter were and have
continued to this time fast friends of the
pastor, and they believed they were invited
to this meeting to be changed over to the
views of Mr. Ambler. -It might be well to
ask why Dr. G. S. Comstoek was present,
whoIfor aconsiderable ’portion of the time"
he had been in the church had not paid for
his pew, and why such large givers and lib—
eral men as Dr. Fitch, Mr. George Marvin,
Mr. Flavius Clark, Mr. Samuel Mitchell and
many others were absent 2
. The subject presented to the meeting was
the deficit in the current expenses. and in
connection with this the pastor’s resignation
was freely discussed. It was the belief of
two present at this__nieeting—-and all subse-
quent events confirmed it4-that the finances
were used only as a guise. under which to
force the pastor’s resignation. It may be
here stated that at the ,close of a society
meeting ,the last of January, at which had
been Jolly. .discussed “the finances. of the
church, Mr.~AI-mbler had said that the “finan-
ces could run very well 'tiIlIlthe regular April
meeting,” and the deficit incurrent expenses
of $215would be largely made up bypersous he
then named. And now,six weeks before that
April meeting he was agitating the finances,
when. no important change in the meantime
had occurred.‘-"II ..1’. ' ' _ ..

It was understood at this private meeting
that the deacoiis should‘visit the pastor the

next evening, (Saturday), and while present-
ing the finances “to see if he would not re-
sign.” The reception given by the ‘pastor
was not liked by some of the deacons. The
pastor showed from scripture that at such
a time and under such "circumstances he
could not consistently resign,that these side is-
sues and plotting movements were‘revolution-
ary and subversive of church order and church
discipline, that it was in eflect siding with
and‘upholding the offenders and that he

could not therefore see it his duty to resign,
but that after the discipline'was over. if the
church wished a change Of pastors then
it would be proper to agitate the question.
The resignation was not asked for that eve-
ning. The next day, (Sunday), while the
communion was being administered, Mr.
Ambler tried to have a meeting called at the
close to present business and request: the
pastor’s resignation, but failed. A meeting
called for finances was hold some two weeks
ldter, at-which Mr. Ambler presented the
finances and closed by a motion that the
pustor be requested to resign. This motion
was declared out of order as no notice had
been given to take action in regard to the
pastor. ,Finally two notices climate the pas-
tor to read,both calling a meeting to, consider
the pastoral relation, but only differing as to
the time of holding it,’ and the pastor, as
was his right, read the one calling a meeting
on the first Sunday in April. Atthat'meet-
ing called to “express the preferences for

the continuance or discontinuance of the
pastoral relation,” the first ballot resulted in
forty-eight votes for the continuance and
forty-eight votes against it, and therewas
also cast one blank vote,

,When the meeting was called to order"
the pastor,was about to retire, on call-
ing a brother to the chair, he said to him,
“there are two members present under disci-
pline, and according to the best standards.
they cannot vote." Had these two members
under dfscipline not voted as they clearly had
not the right to vote (see Baptist Directory

decision'obtained at the meeting held on the

was had by the church on the subject he
should suffer himself to be removed from
the pastorate by the church.”

It only remains to add that at a church
meeting held on the evening of the 30th of
June, amid the most exasperating-{cbarges
and conduct to the pastor, amid sneers and
jeers, the vote was taken to “summarily re-j
move the pastor,” and was followed by a
motion “not to grant Mr. Bentley a letter of
dismission."

inappropriate to the case:

Union Sunday School Mr]: Ap-
preciated by Ministers.
Religious Herald.

A "missionary of,,the American Sunday
SchoolUniou ingTexas, writes : -Wher'I'eII:I
have traveledin Hafiéand Travis counties;
Union Sunday schoblsi have been the means
‘ of uniting the people where they have been
;divided for years, and in country places
"where denominational schools have failed,
:and the Sunday school work had long since
ceased. the people readily harmonized in the
Union work, and are making it a success.

One great. help to the work. here is the
unusualinterest manifested byxministers in"
the .UniOanork., . Their influence over their
churches .has brought the people together as:
brethren in the great Work Of training the
children for Christ.

In looking over the vast field in Southern
Texas, the great necessities ofthé new set-
tlements, and the different states and nation-
alities represented in them, with ideas and
beliefs so various, we see that the American
Sunday School Union is peculiarly adapted
to meet the many wants so long felt, and is
the great moving and harmonizing agency to
unite the people in the study of God’s word.

A Touching Incident.
Church-Union.

A missionary of the American Sunday
kbool Union, writing from North Carolina,
relates a touching little incident.~ Hchad
come into a neighborhood to visit a Sunday
school, and seeing a boy about eight years
old sitting 'on a doorstep, asked him if he
were not going to school. To this the little
fellow answered : "I ain't been in three
Sundays—it is all ruined 1" Not under-
standing just what the lad meant,the question
was repeated, but the boy again said, “No,
sir, it is ruined!" “Why, how is that ?"
asked the missionary. “Have any of the
teachers had a fuss? Have the children been
fighting, or behaving badly ?” “No, sir,I
reckon not," was the answer, “but it is
ruined.” “Now, 'my dear boy,’.’ said the
missionary, “please‘tell me if you can, what
ruined your nice little Sunday school.” The
little fellow looked up into his face with an
expression of grief. peculiar in one so young
and replied: "She don’t come no more, my
teacher don’t—it is ruined l" The boy’s
esfimate of the absence of that teacher was
a greatcompliment to her. To use aHi-
hernicism, the Sunday school would be a
great deal better off if it had more teachers
in it whose absence would be its ruin.

The Queen of Home.

Honor the dear old mother. Time has
scattered snowy flakes on her brows, plowed
deep furrows on her cheeks, but is she, not
sweet and beautiful new ? The‘lips are thin
and shrunken, but those are the lips, which
have kissed many a hot tear from the child-
ish cheeks, and they are the sweetest lips in
the world ;' the eye is dim, yet it glows with
the soft radiance that can never fade. Ah,
yes,- she is a dear old mother. The sands of
life are nearly run. out, but she feeble'as she"
is, she will go further and reach down
lower for you than any other person on
earth. You cannot enter prison whose bars
can keep her out ,! you cannot mount ascaf-
fold too high for her, to reach that she may
kiss and bless you in evidence or her dentin"
less love when the world shall despise and"
forsake you ; when it leaves you by the
wayside to perish unnoticed, the dear old
mother will gather you in her arms and carry
you home and tell you of all your virtues
until you almost forgot your soul is disfigured
by vices. Love her tenderly, and cheer the

declining years with holy devotion.

who usually called such beggars little mons-
ters, andéh'errihlemuisances. . '

I did not know she had heard this dialogue
at the door, so I brought the child in. How
the grea'lark eyes—Iher only beauty—op-
ened at sight of the comfort and luxury
within,and how much bluer and more wizeued
and starved she looked in the midst of the
light and color! _ _ , _

“I think it’s a shame and a sin for children
to sufler like that!” said Aunt Betsey, “for
want and ucglectare writcn all over that poor
little thing. Tell Bridget to put something
on the table in the kitchen and let her cat
and be satisfied, for once.”

I led the child out and seated her near the
fire, to Bridget’s disgust, for Bridget shared
my aunt’s prejudices. -

"She's another, is she ?” asked the girl.
“Sure, an’ she‘s hungry, though.” ~

Children in such circumstances do not
generally talk, unless you draw them out. I
noticed thatthe little one coughed occasion-f

ease in her eyes and cheeks, and the bloodless
appearance of her fingers. I

SCIENTIFIC pundit.

The rapidity of motion of the wings of
some insects is almost incredible. It has been
estimated that the common house fly moves
its wings 330 times in a second, or 19,800
times per minute; while the butterfly's wings
move nine times per second, or 540 times per
minute.

It has been computed that the power of the
steam engines of England would suffice to
raise from the quarries and place in position
all the stones of the Greet Pyramids in eigh-
teen hours.

Messrs. Galloway and Abel have_found
coal-dust to be an important factor in explo-
sions of the gasesin mines. A mixture of
coal-dust and air is not explosivc,but a quan-
-ity of fire-damp too small to produce any
effect with air alone _eauses the mixture to
become violently explofig Prof, Abel’s
experiments show that kind of dust mixed
with air containing a small quantity of fire-
damp converts the mixture into an explosive
compound.

Heneeforth the telegraph offices of France
are to record in detail all thunder-storm which
may be observed.

Experiments have been made with com-
pressed gunpowder,made to fit the drill holes
and cut into short lengths. It was found to'
possess many advantages over loose powder,
among which isa saving of forty per cent.
in powder.

The evil effect of the electric light" upon

the eyes is due, it is supposed,to’the constant
changes in the intensity of the light, where-
by the eyes are greatly fatigued. Little in-
convenienceof this nature attends the use of
the incandescent lamps.
It is believed by miiuy scientific men that
a close connection may be traced between
the remarkable electrical phenomena lately
obser'ved all over the world and the excited
condition of the sun. As the sun has not
yet reached the culmination of its peri-
od of disturbance, it is thought that
yet more startling outbursts of nature’s
forces may be seen are the close of the pres-
eut summer.

Despite the boasted power and intelligence
of human beings, many things are doubtless
familiar to lower orders of animals which
can never be perceived by man, while a large
part of the animal world may look upon
things as very different from what they ap-
pear to us. Sir J ohu Lubbock has just re-
corded some interesting facts concerning the
effect of light upon ants. His conclusions
are that these insects must have a very dif-
ferent perception of light and color from
what we do. We all know that a ray of
white light passed through a prism becomes
broken up intoa beautiful hand of colors—
the spectrum. To our eyes it is bounded by
red at one end and violet at the other. But

 

 

.- , a ray of light contains other rays not visible

to our eyes called, but not with absolute cor-
rectness, heat and chemical rays. The heat
rays extend beyond. on; limits of vision at
the red end, and the chemical rays atlthc vio-
let end of the spectrum. Sir John under-
took to determine whether the limit of
visibility of these rays is the same with us as
with nuts, and in a series of interesting ex-
periments has become convinced that they
percieve the ultra—violet rays which are quite
invisible to us. These must appear to them '
as a different color, of which we can form
no idea, while white light with this added
component may not appear the same to them
as to us. ,

The labors of Seismological Society of
Japan have established the fact that there is
a chronic centre of disturbance within a radi-
us of a few miles from Yokohama,

Dr. Barety, of Nice, has successfully em-
ployed turpentine vapor in the treatment of
whooping cough. The drug is .allowcd to
stand in plates in the, room occupied by the
patient, a resort to which simple expedient
is believed to greatly lessen the severity and
duration of the malady. Dr. Barety was led
to a trial of this remedy by observing a
marked improvement in the case of achild
severely affected who had b‘een allowed to
sleep in a newly painted room redolent with
turpentine odor. _

The first complete description of the two
newly opened pyramids of Sakkarah, in
Egypt, has been given to a Cairo institute by
M. Brugsch. They are located in the desert
west of Sakkarah. The galleries and cham—
bers are covered with hieroglyphics,in which
the two Words “Marina" and “Pepi". occur
as royal names. M. Brugsch showed the
two pyramids to be monuments of the two
kings, Pepi and of his son Horemsaf, of the
sixth dynasty of Mambo. The sarcophagi
still stood in their I old places; but of the
mummies only one was found—that of Ho-
remsaf, deprived of its ornaments and robes.
The pyramids were evidently plundered in
ancient times. They are the earliest exam-
ples of royal graves in Egypt adorned with,
religious hierglyphics. It is most remarka-
bid that the Cairo Museum contains a tomb-
stone erected to the memory Of Una, an 0111-
cial at King Pepi’s court, the inscription on
which stone refers to the building by Una
of the pyramids which have now just been

opened.

Profit in Black Walnuts.

The smartest Texan, and, in fact, the
smartest farmer, I have ever met, is old Sim
Graves, who lives on a 1,000 acre farm west
of Waxabatchie, in central Texas. After Mr.
Graves had shown me his cattle and cotton
he took me over into his woods.

“Well, what of it?” I said, as he pointed
to a ten-acre forest.

“‘Wbat of it P” Why, them’s black wal-

nuts; sir. Ten acres of ’em. Planted ’em
myself ten years ago. See, they’re nine
inches through. Good trees,eh f”
. And sure enough there were ten acres of
hand-planted black walnut trees. They stood
about twelve feet apart, 200 to the acre—in
all 2,000 trees. _

“Well, how did you get your money back?
I asked.
“Black walnuts are worth $2.50 a bushel,
ain’t they ? I’ll get 400 bushels this year.
That’s $1,000. A hundred dollars an acre
is good rent for land worth $10 an acre, ain’t
it ?n . ‘ .

“Well, what else 1” I inquired, growing .
interested.

“The trees,” continued Mr. Graves, “are
growing an inch :1 year. When they are
twenty years old they will be nineteen inches
through. A black walnut tree 19 inches
through is worth $25. My 2,000 trees ten '
years from now will be .worth $50,000. If
I don't want to cut t em all, I can cut half
of them, and then raise a bushel of walnuts
to the tree—that is, get $2,000 a year for the
crop. Two hundred and fifty dolltrs an acre
is a fair rent for $15 laud, ain't it.
