His cousin, Rev, Thoron Baldwin, and his old associate, Frederick Collins, who bad been for several yours in Illinois, urged him to come to them. He accordugly resigned his pastorate and removed to Illinois, arriving at Naples, on the Illinois river, where Mr.

This position he retained for more than nineteen years, during all of which period his relations with his own flock with all his crangelical followlaborers were of the must endearing harmonious character. The church flourished greatly under his leadership, became in its character and inHuence one of the leading Presbyterian churches in the State.

Is Our Civilization Perishable. A moral cause which may threaten our civilization is a mistakon view of the relations between capital and labor. This cause presents a doublo aspect, according as capital is found to be too grasping or labor to be too exacting. It is not now for the first timo that conflicts bringing grave dangors to society have arisen between those two great forces. From the obscure hints which history gives us it is evident that while tho nature and extent of the ro-.

spective rights of labor and capital aro not well understood, and the weaker party, the ignorant, laboring poor, often bore long without seeking redress, a time was generally reached in which the limit of forbearance was passed and torrible outbreaks, worse than experienced in tho present day. occurred. The servile insurroctions of classical antiquity, the peasant wars the middle in France, Germany and England, are examples of this. It is noticeable however, that these outbreaks of violence were limited in extent. The diseaso being local, recovery was possible, and it cam10 from voluntary concessions by the capitalists of tho period.

Labor' arose in rebellion because it suffered, and, tho oppression being removed, quiet. and contentment wore restored. the causes were strictly locul, the same phenomenon might again bo witnessed. Such now, however, is the solidarity of all civilized peoples that causes of discontent in the ranks of labor are likely to be universal, oven when they are material in their nature, 80 that the dangor from that source is greater than in former times. But the causes aro not all of that kind; there are causes in tho principles propounded by the parties to the conflict, as determining their rospective rights, which, because thoy fly upon the wings of the wind all over tho whole earth, are all tho more monacing to civilization.

Ono of these on the part of capital is the principlo that there are no limits beyond which capi1al ought not to be allowed to accumulate; or that corporations cannot rightfully bo controlled in the exercise of their charter powers; or that while monopolies, strictly so called, are illegal, virtual monopolies, entailing upon 8 pooplo all the evils of real monopolies, ought not to bo disturbod in gathering their colossal harvest of gain. ---Judge Jolen A.
