Congree atonal board sions has voted by a large majority in favor of offering to the Rev Mr Noyes an appointment as missionary to Japan but at the same time it has taken the precaution of avoiding any responsibility for the doctrine of fu ture probation which has been the sole cause of the discussion concern ing his fitness to teach religion and theology to the Japanese Mr Noyes thinks that the doctrine of the damnation of the heathen be cause they do not believe iu Christ is grossly inconsistent with Divine jus tice He resents such treatment of them as unfair asking how can they be culpable for not believing the Gospel when they ire ignorant of it? The thought that the vast majority of mankind nowand in all times past ooomeu to everlasting torment by the Divine Master before all time is revolting to him He is not made of the stuff which enabled Jonathan Edwards to rejoice in the conviction that thus the iusti A RnninmA Ruler would be satisfied and vindi cated The more general the torture the more the absolute power of God is displayed he artrued and hence the more terrible the wholesome fear of the wrath to come If hell were not so horrible the disobedience to the will of God would be greater he inodgnt teoplein ins congregation tainted when lie pictured tho horrors of the lake of fire and solemnly de clared tho probability that sonic of them would be undergoing its tor tures before another day Whether a million or a million million people went to hell seemed to him of insig nificance as compared with the ne cessity of the logical execution of tho Divine will Mr Noyes cannot stomach that doctrine though it is a legitimate conclusion of Calvinism At any rate he thinks the heathen should be ex cluded from its operation Hence his tenderness has suggested that be cause tiiey do not know of Christ here they will have the chance to learn of him hereafter throurrh hea enly instruction Il' this theory be sound of course the motive for efforts to convert the heathen to Christ is destroyed The propagation ot the Christian faith among them by human missionaries is not necessary to their salvation if in a future probation they will learn heavenly doctrine from angelic teachers and hence there is no long er any impcrativcneed of a mission ary society It may serve the ends of temporal philanthropy and infuse Tho refusal of President Cleveland to consent to compromise revived at once the drooping courage of the commercial world of New York Its influence was first felt on tho stock exchange and nearly all stocks went booming up with the sudden rush that characteristic of that great gambling house But the stock ex change is the pulse of lie commercial body It beats quickly when trade is brisk and slowly when trade is dull Soon through all the arteries of trade new life ran and now business is in eommon parlance "looking But the good news of compro mise not only revived commerce but also greatly encouraged that part of the body politic known as tho Demo cratic party Although this State went Dr moeratie last year by 59000 majority yet if Mr Cleveland had agreed to a compromise any com it might not have gone Demociafie this year Where doubt stood the other day confidence now stands The winter of discontent is glorious summer The unterrified Democracy of the Empire State looks into the future without dismay rom Lake Erie to the sea the Democracy is on guard and ready for the battle and con fidcn of vietorv I) Special Carrespnienee larinark New Yok Oct J0 1893 Cleveland indomitable and unswerving mtimfrs in the great That headline ap peared in tho Duller Aviertra Thai newspaper is the organ of Tatnmany Hail it is the only straightout Democratic di iy in fhe city It is the only whi besides sauuiug sqnareiy on iiib Democratic platform made at earnestly advocates the elect ion of every Dem ocratic nominee in this city Brook lyn and th Stat1 No other news paper in the itv is sj outspoken in oommendatio'4 of every act of Presi dent deveiand Thore are thick aud Hiiu Republican uewpapers in town Out this is the only tiiiek and thin Democratic one Some people im agine the to be a Democratic paper but it has not been one for at least nine years if it ever was one It is an anti administration sheet devoted tothe Kepvlieau principle of poiticiion THE SUN OR MAYNARD AND BOODY However the Sun stands by the Dail! America in advocating the elec tion of Mr Maynard to be judge of the Court of Appeals and of" Mr Bosy to be mayor of Brooklyn and it ts the only newspaper that does The remainder of the press of tho city with every artificeknwn to journalism scrupulous and unscru pulous is a unit for the defeat of these candidates It is an interest ing tight and is now at its bei is probable that Maynard will be elected and Boody defeated speech helps maynard Until Senator Hill made his great speech in Brooklyn last Monday niifht most people knew only one side of the Maynard that sented by the Bar Association of this city They had not taken the time to follow the various mandamuses stays etc in the contested election cases iu which Mr Maynard figured and so they accepted newspaper ed itors' opinions without question tak ing it as a matter of course that the latter had made thorough investiga tion and were advising their readers from a knowledge of the facts and a desire merely to do right But after Hill speech many people are in clined to think the editors ignorant or malicious Certainlv nnlcec it can be proved incontestably that Mr Hill was lying last Monday and so far it has not been proven many men will cast their votes for Mr Maynard who a week ago would have cast them for his opponent In the light of Air speech the ac tion of tho Bar Association of this city in investigating the Maynard case and in condemning Mavnard seems officious to say Rast We all thought that the of the returns by Maynard gavo tho Demo crats tho control of the Legislature But Mr Hill who certainly knows if anybody does says that the Legisla ture would have been Democratic anjway the courts having just de cided in favor of tho Democrats in two other closely contested senato rial districts Even then if Maynard had not "committed Messrs Hill and Mnrphy would have been sent to Washington to represent New i oi in tne united Mates Senate Therefore Mr Hill had no motive in inducing Maynard to a It reallv spark if 31(1 An a did only what ho thought no uaa a ngm to do and that Mr Hill also did only what he thought be had a right to do Neither of them has been arrested for ting' a and neither will He ATTACKED IIKCAVSE HE IS A DEMOCRAT One of the strongest points made by Mr Hill in Lis Brooklyn speechwas that your Republican is always a Republican It was not so nine years ago There wire many men called Republicans who voted for Mr in preference to Mr ay of these afterwards i Harrison 1 again voted for Mr Cleveland But the Republicans who voted for Blaine aud twice for Harrison are Republi cans all over and through and through Put tho label on anything animate or inani mate man or parch mant aud they commend it and refuse to find any fault Some of these men are among Judge accusers and in deed loudest of all in their accusa tions But as Senator Hill says they never saw any harm in I Davenport They would not have said a word if Mr Maynard had been a Republican aud had helped to put a Republican in the State Senate There is undoubtedly much ground for Senator Hill's assertion that these men are influenced in their attacks upon Judge Maynard more by parti sanship than by desire to see right done THE AILURE COMPROMISE HELPED Oct 12 IRtn The Largest Best andltronM Company in the Worlfl 18 13 Benrji cf nieiJiaial 5 per cpdI dhtb mi pGUc Uaued by THE MUTUAL LIE
