an honest, fearless man . poor, the sick, and the cr iminals county." said Dr. Abbott, in con-
jlating his large congregation on Meat of the bill, "are under the 1 of a Board of Commissioners of ies and Correction, three in num-ga ins t whose administrat ion, so
1 know, no complaint has been it. There w a s introduced and

|lr position w a s : We helped to noml-, Gov. Morton, therefore Gov. Morton i t to give u s charge of the poor, the
and the Insane, so tha t we may see l we can make out o t It." I do not
I t e ra te . That was ,<teeir position, as ed time and agalA in the news-
»rs. «
Per my par t , I think it-~would be bet-to found an asylum for those who
t get public offices, r a the r than to this depar tment to be managed
Incompetent men. whose only plan | to see w h a t they can make out of It
decayed politicians. |>The final defeat of this iniquitous bill 5>uld not have been accomplished but
three men. One of these was James • K e e n . Chairman of the Committee ' One Hundred; another was Dr. Brush, a om we all in Plymouth like to call
Dr. Brush ' ; the third was Gov. iorton. who had to resist a grea t
ount of political pressure, and proved himself a strong, as well as an honest van in the course he has taken." Dr. Abbott also congratulated his con
gregation on the refusal of the Excise entrd to g ran t a liquor license to
Ilchael Murphy for his proposed saloon It the chief entrance Jo the new terminal
the bridge. He said all who took par t the fight against gra t ing the license
ved a debt of grat i tude to Edward M. Shepard for his a rgument before the t x c i s e Commissioners.
The text of Dr. Abbott ' s sermon was the 56th verse of the Sixth Chapter of
p o h n : "He t h a t eate th my flesh and Irinketh my blood abideth in me, and 1
(in him." The theme of the sermon was the
>urely symbolic character of the sacra-|Blent of the eucharist .
"Whatever we may think of this meta-! phor of John 's ." said Dr. Abbott, " i t 1» evident tha t it was a favorite one wi th Christ, and had deep significance In His mind, for later He embodied it In a farewell supper with His disciples, and so commended it to them tha t whenever they met to pray.part icularly a t the Paschal Supper, or. if you prefer, whenever they a t e together, they broke bread1
and drank wine. "Certainly we are not to take thi» me
t aphor literally. If we a re to do this, we might as well say the Bible teaches Idolatry, because it says God Is a rock. Jesus Christ used the phraseology of the Paschal Supper, saying: "This Is the lamb t h a t was sacrificed for y o u ' in /Egypt."
. If th is before us was the blood and flesh «# Christ we could hard ly ea t and drink ttv and it cer tainly would not help us if w e were to do so.
" W h a t does the language of the text m e a n ? We eat his body and drink his Wood most because It is different from our own, but because His spirit and life were different from ours.
"A man might be surrounded by food and yet s t a rved to dea th . A man must ea t food; he must assimilate it if he Is to derive benefit therefrom. Out of what he ea ts his brain, his nerves, his tissues a re nourished. A man Uvea on w h a t he ea t s .
"So it is in education. Wha t is educa t ion? We take the thoughts of the wr i t e r and they become our thoughts ; merely memorized learning Is no learning. I t is simply the development of t h e memory. When you have digested, assuni la t - d the thoughts of a writer, then and only then has h e exercised a n educational Influence on you. There a re men who a r e so sa tu ra ted with Browning t h a t they can hardly ta lk anyth ing except Browning.
"There a re preachers who a r e duplica tes In a small way of the late Henry W i r d Beecher and Phillips Brooks. I do no t mean these duplicates arc imitators. I do not mean tha t a m a n who h a s a limp Bible is a duplicate of Mr. Moody, or t h a t s man who ta lks at the r a t e of fifty mUU« a n hour Is like Phillips Brooks. No; I mean the men who have imbibed t h e spirit and teachings of Mr. Beecher andi Mr. Moody and Mr. Brooks. The idea I t l y r a t t e d In our common vernacular .
We say a man devours a book. l i e absorbs a lecture. And so in the higher life. W h y should not a man study home, and then go up to college once twice a year for his examinations cause if a man*did not live a t the col lege, among the students and professors of the college, he would not get anything foy the assimilative process. A man breathes in a t the universities a great deal more than he takes In deliberately.
"This Is t rue in the spiritual realm. We grow spiritually as we take the spiritual na tu re of another into our system. I t is because men do not do this tha t men are skeptical, loubtful. irreltgious. Not long ago I received a pathetic letter from a man who had devoted his life entirely to business. He said he had been so absorbed in business tha t he had not had time to study the Bible or cult ivate the religious side of his nature . He asked me to give him a book tha t would teach him Immortality. I couldn't do it! The na tu re in tha t man that believes in immortali ty, has been starved to death. He's got to begin all over again. He must s t a r t afresh.
"To have faith in Christ is to take Christ into ourselvea I t ' s no use, absolutely no use, if you do not at tempt to follow His example, if you do not a t t empt to take in His preaching. It is not the mere fact of Chris t ' s crucifixion t h a t saves us. It is not what he does for us out there. I t ' s what he does In us . I t ' s w h a t He is to us in the personal relation. Some men think it enough tha t they come into church and say, 'Yes, I know Christ died for the world. I believe in His teachings. Now Vm a Christ ian. ' Not a t all! You must feed on Christ.
"I don't know whether to me it is most thankful or regretful tha t we are not logical. The measure of our Christian experience Is not what we think about Christ, but how much* we take Him into us. Many a m a n comes Into church and says, 'I agree to all tha t Chris t said,' but goes out of church and leads a selfish life. Another man comis into church and says, T don' t believe in miracles, but I know a colony of poor people on the east side of New York who need to be looked after.' So he goes out of church and over to the east side and teaches and looks after these poor people. Now, this iman had been eat ing of Christ and didn ' t know it.
" S i r , t ha t ' s w h a t it is to be a Christian. It is to feed on Christ, to digest Him, to take Him into your heart . I t is to be made as one with Him. Firs t of all, it is to get acquainted wi th Him.
"I t is astonishing how few men are acquainted with Christ. There are more people in this congregation to-day who have read the life of Abraham Lincoln than have read the life of Jesus Christ. Oh, you've read f ragments of His life, I know; verses here and there; but you have not read from (first to last the story of His life. And then you wonder tha t you don't love Him. How can you? You don't know him.
"Read Mark, which is the briefest and most pictorial life of Christ. Read Mark in one sitting, if possible. Then take a brief life of Christ, wri t ten by one of our modern Christ ian scholars. Read the life through in one sitt ing, if possib'e. Then read Matthew, Luke and John, and compare the four gospels, one with the other. Then take up the ' teachings of the Apostles. Then read the gospels with relation to yourself. When Christ says, 'Beware of the Pharisees'—well, consider if there is any leaven of the Pharisee In you. Take the words of Christ, and* see what meaning they have bearing upon you. Then put the words of Christ in practice; practice makes perfect. A man is not a piano player merely because he reads music by note.
"This is what it means to feed on Christ. You can' t do it merely by taking up bread and wine. These a re but the symbols. You can do It by assimilating the spirit of Christ, by imitat ing His example by Incorporating His na ture in your own. Christ is a garment . P u t Him on. Don' t hang the robe up in a church, and come once a week and put it on.
"Christ is a robe. You are to walk In i t Don't merely take the robe out and look a t it. You can ' t get across the Brooklyn Bridge, merely by star, ling and looking a t the Bridge. Christ is the soil. The root is in Him.
"Feed on Christ. Assimilate Christ. Live in Christ. Tha t is wha t this communion service means—He in us, and we in Him."

My Baby was a living skeleton; the doctor said he was dying of Marasmus and Indigestion. At 13 months he weighed only seven pounds. Nothing strengthened or fattened him. I began using Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with Hypophosphites, feeding it to him a!rid rubbing it into his body. He began to fatten and is now a beautiful dimpled boy. The Emulsion seemed to supply the one thing needful.

A public meeting', at tended by many women and exceedingly few men, was held yesterday afternoon a t t h e F i r s t Presbyterian Church, on Henry street, near Clark street, in the Interest of Atl an ta University, of Atlanta, Ga., and its work among the Southern negroes. Dr. Charles Cuthber t Hall, the pastor of th3 church, presided.
In his introductory remarks , T>r. Hall Bald, t ha t in the three decades which have now passed since the death of Lincoln, great progress has been made In our love for a race which had long been treated with u t t e r injustice. To bring about this change, no institution h a s been a more powerful agent than At lan ta University, which dares to believe, and has staked i ts very existence on this belief, t ha t men of the colored race, with proper cultivation, can become broadly cultured members of society.
Dr. Horace Bumsteadi, the president of the university, then spoke a t length upon the work of his institution. H e said Atlanta University was not duplicating any work now being done for the black man. because no o ther institution in the country devoted itself entirely and exclusively to the higher education of the colored race. At lan ta Universi ty has a regular college course of four years, in which the s tudents were prepared for teachers. •
Dr. Bumstead said, t ha t he knew, this higher work amongst the negroes was not a t aK popular, because there are still very many people who labor under the mistaken notion, t ha t there can be no such a pfrson a s a thoroughly educated negrot. This idea Is a s erroneous as the popular apprehension of the word "higher education." By that , we do not exclude industrial traHiing, In fact, we include it in our course of training, so a s to make our s tudents competent teachers of their fellow men in every walk of life.
This is no luxury which we are offering to the b'.ack man, but it is a very practical thing, and urgently needed. The education of the negro masses of the South is peramount with the peace, happiness and advancement of our country. "White people, however, a re not willing t> teach the negro themselves, and so we must find teachers in the r a c e j Itself, who will gain Influence in indus^l trial mat ters amongst them, develop the home and social lite of their brethren,increase their political influence, and bring about a moral and religious advancement. The solution of the great negro problem is to bring the highest culture into contact with the lowest condition and lowest needs.
Butler R. Wilson, a member of the Massachusetts Bar, and a g r a i u a t ? of Atlanta University, was the next speaker. He said t ha t the negro problem was a t present of far greater importance than any other question. One thousand negro babies are born each day, and already the negro population of this country is equal to tha t of all the New England States, with the exception of little Rhode Island. Deportation of the race to Africa or some other i continent is clearly impossible, for the combined merchant, marines and navies of the world were Inadequate to accomplish it.
The claim of some Southerners tha t a white population of thirte3n millions must for its own protection keep the colored population of only seven millions in Ignorance is absurd on Its face, and the 200 lynchings of each of the ten Ja3*_ years are only so many instances of crimes added to a record already Infamous. Crime will never cure crime, because it removes none of the causes of crime; on t i p contrary, i t engenders passion and thoughts of revenge..
What right has society to expect the colored man to be a gentleman when It closes its doors upon him? Not t ha t it was absolutely necessary, tha t the negro should be received in the family circle of the white man, bu t he ought a t least be given an opportunity to acquire that education and culture which is necessary to make one a gentleman.
The negro of the South needs first of all broad-minded political leaders, then preachers, whose pulpit is clean and pure and sweet, and lastly, bu t most, competent teachers. The la t ter are the most important, because they come Into daily and hourly contact with their fellow men. and are thus In a position to shape and mojliJ their ideas and as pirations.
Dr. Bradford, of Montclair, a trustee of Atlanta University, was then introduced. He said tha t he had learned in the house of his father, an old-time Abolitionist, the g rea t lesson, tha t all men are b i r n brethren, and <that i t Is not the color of their skin which now divides' them, but the na ture of their hearts . He knew something of the teaching of At lanta University, and he
j could truthfully say, t ha t in his lectures before the students of tha t insti tution, he had met with more courtesy, and was listened to with a more respectful silence, than at any similar Institution in the ^ o r t h or East .
"Send back to Africa," Dr. Bradford said, "the descendants of those who gathered around the flag, and shed their blood on many a battlefield, in order to help save this Union! No, send back, whomever you choose, but hot the, negro —he has come to s tay, for good or evil!"
Gen. Ste-wart L. Woodford was the last speaker. He was introd-uced by Dr . Hall, as "one of the .most loving and generous of men. whose life has been devoted, from every view, to his coun-jjrj^anS his fellow men." Gen. Woodford s u a . that no ma t t e r how broad our ChrisvoMnv. or how deep our human interest, we a l w * i n h e l p most readily others, when our oinNtateresta are served by such help. We frm^. the slaves in order to save ourselves, a*||) we put muskets in their hands, only I t e r other means of recruiting failed. W% will never help the negro, unti l we h a v * fec-ognized the absolute necessity of doing so.
""We must ra ther lift him up, or be dragged down by him. To this al ternative the negro has reduced itself a t present. Speaking as a politician, who is not ashamed to say t h a t he is a politician. Gen.. Woodfordi said' t ha t the white vote of the South Is now pret ty evenly divided! between the two grea t parties, and t ha t for this reason the negro wi 1 hereafter be an important factor in the government of the Southern States, because it
correctly. We mus t educate the negro, so as to prevent him from following the demagogues of either par ty . This can easily be done, for the black man is not bad by na ture . During the civil war the Southern white men, going to the front, left their families in the charge of their negro slaves, a n d not a n outrage has been reported. They have not changed In freedom.
"If you measure all t ha t this land has taken from the blacks," Gen. Woodford continued, "if you think of the years of unrequited service, of the blood t ha t flciwed from black bacRs under an overseer's lash, and' if you no\#!fcbnsider what the negro needs most, you will give as generously as you can."
Dr. Bumstead then explained t h a t h ' s university needed some $7,000 to cover the deficit of this year. A collection was taken up -which netted a goodly sum.

DUELING AS CARRIED ONt-BY T H E
STUDESMTS OF HEIDELBERG—
QUALUFJCATiIONa OF A POLICE-
IMAN—AN AMERICAN DWELLING
NEAR AN OLD CABTLE.
Prof. Henry E. Northrop of the Polytechnic Inst i tute, took a large number of the members of the Brooklyn Inst i tute on a Journey to Berlin and the cities of the Rhine in an illustrated lecture in the Art Building of the Brooklyn Ins t i tu te last Saturday evening. As Mr. Northrop was a foreign correspondent and lived in German for an extended period, his ac quaintance with the f a t h e r l a n d is Intimate, and' his remark* well worth hearing.
The lecturer snowed the public places of interest in the Prussian capital, Introduced the audience to the Unter den L'n-den, the Brandenburger Thor, and the Berlin Thiergarten. He exhibited one or two of the vas t a rmy garraeks on which the taxes of Germany are expended, showed the Uhlans, or German cavalry, riding down the streets, and explained the system on which the army is organized. The police are a picked class of men from the army rosters. No one is eligible for police duty, according to Mr. Northrop, who has not served in the regular a rmy twelve years, and as a noncommissioned officer a t least three years. The look of the street* is quite different from those of America.. Everything is scrupulously clean. *Phe pavements are well-kept, and one majr walk indifferently on the sidewalk or the road. The4pleas-ure places of the ctly ghow' municipal advancement, equally with the business and residential quarters . . The Thiergarten, or zoological garden, is of large area, and instead of having the animals cooped up in some corner of ft, as we would do here, the cages and enclosures are scattered all through the park, forming a most delightful and Instructive ramble for the visitor.
After a few moments' look a t Potsdam and the suburb* of Berlin, Prof. Northrop passed to the Rhine country, visiting Cologne, Mainz, Coblentz, Frankfort-on-Main, Strasbourg, Stut t gar t and other famous cities, and not forgetting the great university centres, Bonn and Heidelberg, the former the^ resort of nobleman's ions and the great home of studens' dueling clubs. The present emperor received his education at Bonn, and here, too, formed his Intimate acquaintance with Poultney Bige-low, the American. JUr. Northrop devoted a few minutes, to sketching the dueling customs of undergraduates. Although dueling is now forbidden by law. It was connived a t m Bismarck, himself a great duelist wfce in college, and is not frowned on ovlfcmuch by William II. Mr. Northrop sa^tf he thought the casualties caused bya student dueling were ra ther less than! those of football, and certainly a higfc degree of pluck and skill is required. The antagonists face each other wi t j j their left hands placed behind their packs, their right grasping swords and elevated high above their heads, and their eyes protected by iron spectacles.

"The Way Called Heresy," formed "the theme of a homoletic discourse toy the Rev. John W. Chad wick, a t the Second Uni tar ian Church. Clinton and Congress streets, yesterday morning. Mr. Chadwlck said that it was not his practice to take a text from the Scriptures upon which to 'found his discussion, but in the present instance he woud refer his hearers to Acts 24:14, which had reference to the title of his address.
The Rev. Heber Newton, he said, has been preaching upon the subject of Christ 's resurrection, one of the most intensely interest ing subjects tha t the pulpit has ever been called upon to discuss. The speaker, himself, had read thousands of pages of higher criticism upon the subject during the past thirty years of his ministry, but he did not propose to appear as an apologist for Dr. Newton, who was perfectly competent to fight his own bat t les in defense of his views upon the subject. There were no specious apologies for traditional opinions. Newton maintained that the resurrection of Jesus meant the resurrection of a spiritual Jesus, and not tha t of a corporal body. Newton also^ Contended that his position was not denied by Paul or the Nieean Creed, and Newton himself has not departed from the creed. But there can toe no trial for heresy on this score, for the reason that the creed creates a wonderful opinion of unanimity, while, a t the same time, it does not offer a protestation against the personal liberty of thought.
A traveler from some other planet might draw from some of our preachers a perfect physical, s tatement of Christ 's resurrection from the dead, said Mr. Chadwick. but the five documents bearing upon the subject—the four Gospels and the Acts—written a t different times, are widely divergent in the mat ter of details. The speaker maintained ;_that no two of them corresponded as to time or circumstances with regard to the resurrection. It was conclusive that no humari being had witnessed the resurrection, and in the story of the appearance of Christ before His disciples, It seemed to be impossible to determine whether it was in a spiritual or corporeal form tha t he presented himself, notwithstanding the incident in connection with "doubting Thomas."
After pointing out the discrepencies in the New Testament as to the actual time of Christ 's resurrection from the dead, Mr. Chadwick insisted tha t Newton's views were not presumptious. One thing was certain, the passage referred to suggested something spiritual and of a visionary character, while Paul, according to his testimony, was the only witness of Christ 's spiritual resurrection.

AN INVESTIGATION ORDERED.
Major George G. Cochran of the Thirteenth Regiment, who would seem to possess the unhappy faculty of constantly being involved in trouble, broug'U himself prominently before the regiment again, on S a t u r a a y night, by tendering" his resignation as chairman of the House Committee of the Regimental Athletic Association. The resignation, which was presented to Col. Watson, reads as follows:
The Board of Governors. Thirteenth Regiment Athletic Association: Gentlemen,—Feeling that owing to the
many calls upon my time it is impossible for me to devote the requisite a t ten t lo- to the duties of the position, I hereby tender to you my resignation as chai rman of the House Committee."
GEORGE G. COCHRAN. The resignation was presented a t a
special meeting of the Biard of Officers, and was promptlf accepted by the Colonel, and Capt, F. R. Wiswall, of Company A, was chosen to succeed the Major as chairman.
Dissatisfaction with his methods of conducting the financial affairs of the association was the reason for Cochran's refusing to serve longer as chairman of the House Committee. The lat ter committee isj-esponsible, it is said, for a debt of $550, an expenditure that Col. Watspn absolutely refused to have saddled upon the regimental treasury.
The trouble originated on March 26, when a reception took place at the armory. For this purpose $100 had been voted for the House Committee, but the committee boosted the expenditures up to $331. of which $154 was spent for engraved invitation cards. The reception was not the success that It was expected to be. and finally the debts began to multiply for one reason and another, until on Saiurday night Treasurer Klar reported that the receipts amounted to $1,202.02, and the expenditures and outstanding bills to $1,752.39.
The House Committee, composed of five enlisted men. Major Cochran and Assistant Surgeon Jarre t t , had the hiring of all employees, fifteen in all, and it was the intention of the Board of Governors to call the committee to account when the Major's resignation put an en"d to the proceedings.
At the next meeting of the Council of Officers an investigation of the affairs of the association will be made.
