Rev. Dr. Woods of Andover was once giving his class some instructions about preaching in such a manner as to gain attraction and applause. "Young gentlemen," said he, "It's all contained in a nutshell. When you go to preaoh in tbe city, take your best coat but when you go to preach in tbe country, take your best sermon.

Baptist ministers seem tb be wanted on tbe Pacific Coast. In San Francisco the First Church and that on Union square are vaoant. In Sacramento the Calvary Church oould find use for a first class man but wants no inferior sort. In Stockton, Ssn Jose, Redwood City, Yallejo, Santa Cruz, Les Angeles, and Napa, the churches are vacant and pastors are wanted. Most of the respectable Baptists wish that Brother Kalloch's church was vacant, so that a good man might be settled in his piece. KAlloch his a very small following of solid people.

The Sunday amusement question is provoking increased discussion In England. At tbe recent Canterbury Diooesan Conference the Rev. Dr. Carpenter advocated tbe opening of museums and other places of rational resort. The Archbishop closed the debate, reminding Hie members of tbe Conference that it is generally agreed that tbe pressnt manner of observing Sunday is not satisfactory, «nd that they must exercise their wisdom in- providing seme practical remedies for present apparent evils. The Archbishop lamented the tendency on the part of worklngmen and their families to stay away from public worship. He hinted that one of the ressons they stayed away is beoause tbe ministers do not sufficiently attract, thetn. In this connection be paid ahigb compliment to Spurgeon's wsy of educating, ministers by giving them practical work during their coarse of study. He ssld that men thus trained were In many instances better fitted for their work than university men.

Presbyterians in the western part of York State are much exercised in reference to the Rev. E. P. Adams, who baa renounced the doctrine of every punishment. He entered the plea of "formally gnilty." That is to say, he admits having departed from the letter to the Westminster Confession, but denies being guilty of saying anything contrary to the teachings tf Scripture.

not ss generally known as it might be, that a great many of the ministers of tbe Presbyterisn Church sre by no means as irigid ss the Confession requires in their views snd teachings regsrding everlasting punishment. If tbe Presbyteries were now to begin to take up all cases of brethren against whom oharges of heresy could be made out, tbe remainder of tbe present century would not suffice to litlgstethe whole business.

The Christian at Work hss a strong article against presching a second sermon on Sunday, as sn inflexible rule. It says that "with the regular morning service, with lta sermon more or lees elsborste' with tbe Sundsy school, whose duties are not wanting in exactitude with the time demanded for rest, for home reading, instruction and intercourse, neither the effectiveness of the preacher nor tbe Interest of religion need necessarily suffer by tbe withholding tbe third service, especially when these long-lighted days of mid-Sumtner roll tbelr high tidal waves of beat upon us. There is a disposition in some quarters to make religion consist of two sermons, hslf-a-dozen prayers, ss many hymns, ands pair of bonedictiona. But it is a false view.".

The Second Presbyterian church of Chicago is in a bit of a snarl owing to matters out of which grew tbe resignation of its late pastor, the Rev. J. Munro Gibson. Tbe long snd short of tbe sffalr Is that Dr. Gibson was fond of going among the people and delivering lecture and sermons on practical life. Sometimes he held afternoon meetings In Fsrwell Hall for tbe exposition of the Bible. These attracted great multitudes, who were repelled by tbe statellnoss of tbe church and tbe coldness of the people. Tbe wealthy and fashionsble gentlemen and ladleaof Dr. Gibson's church objected to his thus making himself common.' Dr. Gibson ssid that he was doing more good in tbis department of bis work than he oould hope to do among tbe rich and purse-proud sinners In bis ohnrch. So there wss an unpleasantness, out of whioh came a division, whereupon Dr. Gibson resigned and took charge of a church In London. Tbe rioh folks control the churob, and are now looking-for a man of their own atyle of spirituality. To tbe proper man a substantial salary will be paid.

There Is a gentle hubbub In the Methodist Episcopal Church over the alleged hereay of Bishop Randolph S. Foster. Tbe Bishop delivered a course of lectures entitled "Beyond the Grave," which were supposed by some to transcend the boundariea of tbe moat rigid orthodoxy. Tbe resolution which wss offered st tbe General Conference instituting an inquiry Into the Bishop's doctrinal position wss so very vsgue that tbe committee charged with it simply smiled, and said that aa no charges were made against anybody there was no ground for Action. The artlolss of religion set forth by the Methodist Epiaoopal Church are not sufficiently definite as to tbe doctrine of the resurrection to serve aa a barfs on which a trial for heterodoxy could be bad. There Is not the moet remote probability that such a trial will take plaoe, aa it would be one of the most clumsy and difficult proceedings In eonlnsiasflnsl litigation. But meanwhile Bishop Foster Is on trial by public opinion among tbe writers of the Methodist publications One of tbe results of trial by tfcia piocsss is that tbe views of tbe leprsssntativs men of tbe church on the doctrine of tbe resurrection are likely to be elaborately placed before tbe religions public.
