Yesterday was like a bower; Everywhere sweet roses twined Music gushed in every breeze, - Incense freighted every wind. Beauty ojen the gates at morn, Glory tilled the noonday air; Golden vistas stretched away - To enelianted regions fair. At the gorgeous sunset's close, Splendor struggling with decay Rainbows spanned the dreamy void 'Twixt to-day and yesterday. But to-day the boughs arc bare, Aud the winds are hoarse and chill; Mournful shadows veil the sun, Black clouds overhang the hill. . Blight lias settled on the rose, Every dew-drop is a tear; Silence seems a litful moan Stilled hack in wildest fear. Not a lark to herald morn Not one gleam of twilight ray; Strange how wintry blight crept in Twixt to-day and yesterday. Dsclins in th3 Stats Clmrsbss cf Gsr- many. Something of an inside view of matters iu the so-called Evangelical Church of Prussia, that is the United or State Church, is furnished by a Berlin correspondent of the Christian Union, in whfch he describes the nature of the controvesies and pro ceedings which are m disabling to the cause of truth and piety (here. The writ -er6ays: The controversy has at least three sides: political, eeclcs'alical, ' and doctrinal; and no one can rigidly comprehend the is .sue who has not studied it in these three points of View. Ami im,t I will try to make clear the political aspect of the' case. To the Germau mind the Church is one of the institutions of the State that is to say it is one of the permanent historical institutions of political society, which the government is bound in some way to foster and conserve. If, of late, the conviction has been growing that religion would prosper better if absolutely independent of State intervention - in church affairs, this conviction is overpowered by custom and feeling; and no party has yet arisen - to deinaud the final separation of the Church from the Crown. Indeed, 'down to n recent period, every chiUl born in Prussia came to the cognizance of the State as a subject through his inherited faith, whether Catholic or Evangelical. For the child of Christian parents baptism, was fconipuisory, and the church record of baptism was the-ccrtitlcatc of citizenship. Not long ago, in entering my name upon the census roll, I styled myself a Chris tian,. The agent said this would not an swer ; there was no-such' classification.' I - must enter myself either as evangelical or Catholic. The line is strictly drawn between Catholic and Evangelical, and everybody must be ranged on one side or the other. The ecclesiastical laws of 1873, famili arly known as the Falk laws, in order to break the power of the Roman Catholic hierarchy against the Suite, 'removed the obligation of baptism and confirmation, and made marriage a purely civil act, liot . Requiring the Kervicojpf a vjergynian nor the -sanction" of the Clmrch. These meas ures ofpolitical ucessity were Hardly less obnoxious to the high -orthodox party in: ; jbhe Evangelical C'hnvch than to the Ultra imontanes in thelioman Church. They broke the power of the clergy over the people. . But the Falk" laws sought to en Jist the popular element in the Evangel ical Church in the conflict against clerical supremacy, and so' the people were given U voice in the administration of church fi nances, and in the election of church offi cers. This freedom was not absolute, but sufficient to bring into ecclesiastical at fciirs a new and powerful element of lib eralism. '' ' The most telling section of the laws was borrowed from the New York code, which makes each particular congregation a cor poration to be administered by trustees, and amenable to the laws that govern, corporations in general. By this provi sion, all male "members of a parish, twenty -four years of age and not paupers, jran vote for the reiirescntatirc of the parish, provided they have resided iif the parish for a year, have paid their parish taxes and are duly registered electors'. This corresponds very nearly 'to the ecclesias tical society in the Congregational system, us distinguished froui the church spirit ual. - The effect of this new constitution of the parishes was at first rather startling iu-an ecclesiastical point of view. For a long time the churches' had Wen pretty juuch deserted by the male portiou of the population, who were willing enough to i-oiiform to such religious usages as the State had enjoined,, but were otherwise disposed to let religion alone. The men ' Svho took interest in church 'affairs' were chiefly dignified conservative old gentlc jueu, respectable for their piety, to whom church-going was a matter of social eti quette. Now, of a suddeniii gieat cities 4ike Berlin, there appeared in the parish meetings crowds of petty rfiop-keepew, artisans, and dayrlaborers-ioplc havipg here no social'position"-to exercise theifnew prerogatives in voting the par- ish estimates, and, in a case of vacancy, i fxnressinsr their clioice for a pastor, ur fxourse this threatened at once the ascen fj - --T dency of the clergy and the stabilityof the faith, and caused a wide-spread alarm among conservatives in both Church and State. To meet this new condition of things to give play to the layelement in the pan'sh, and at the same time to guard the Church in its pulpit and creed against the rush of radicalfsm from beneath, and the pressure of political imperialism from above a new constitution was devised in 1875 by a General Synod of the'Evangeli cal Church, whiiTi was sanctioned by Par liament and the Crown, and is now un dergoing the test of practical application. The iarish as a territorial body and the parish as an electoral body remain as con stituted under previous laws of the State; and the representative body of the parish retains the privileges described above. r But the constitution creates for the par ish liu additional body of spiritual advis ers, a council or presbytery consisting of - . ' Al X 1 not less than tour nor more mau iweive memlers, whose duties nearly correspond to those of the session in the PresbytcrianJ Church. This parochial -council haj the general oversight of matters of worship, doctrine and discipline within the parish. The whole domain of the Evangelical Chun-h is divided into six provinces, aud each of these is subdivided into districts. Next above the parislk bodies comes dis trict synods. Of these the clergy are mem bers cx-ojjicio', the lay members, who are double the number of the-: clerical, are chosen by the parish bodies. These dis trict synods in turn elect from their own members deputies to the provincial syn ods, to which are added members appoint ed l3' the Crown, in the ratio of oueto six. Then these provincial synods choose deputies to the General Synod which meets once, in six years. To this body the king has the absolute right ofappoin- 11112 thirtv members. r.aeh province has one or more general superintendent, and these are ex officio members of the. General Synod. Above all the bodies, as the final court of appeal, is the Supreme Church Council, appointed by the Crown. Here is a very complicated piece of ec clesiastical machinery, (in the one hand, the system starting from the particular parishes gives opportunity for latitudina- rianism in doctrine or practice among clergy or laity to permeate the whole body up to the .General Synod. On the other hand, at each succeeding stage of the constitution, there are checks and devices that may be used to restrain or counteract the popular will. It is just at this point that the machinery is now put to a severe strain. That the controversies in the Prussian Church should iuvole doctrinal disputes is a matter of course ; and thcarthodox. party have pushed these disputes into prominence as being the gist of the whole quarrel. Nevertheless this sudden zeal lor orthodoxy would hardly have sprung 1 up had there not been behind the dogmas a question of political influence aud of ec clesiastical iower The latitudiuarian preaching of thirty years ago has worked effectually among the liaty, and there is a widespread dis belief in the Bible as a supernatural reve lation, in the divinity of Christ, and in any form of miracle though among the Ger mans those who do accept the miraculous do this with a simplicity of faith Jhat bor ders on credulity- and superstition. The materialistic speculations of physical sci ence in recent years have so far infected society at large in Germany, that an hon est and intelligent belief in the miracles of the Bible is seldom found in cultivated circles, and is perhaxs still more rare among the common people. The orthodox party, having a majori ty among the clergy, led by men more zealous for the faith than wise in defen ding it, have of late attempted to curb the latitudiuarianism in the pulpit by ecclesi astical discipline. The first attempt, four years ago, was foileat the -moment of apparent success. Dr. Sydow, one of the oldest pastors of Berlin, was condemned by the Provincial Comsistory for denying the supernatural birth and the divine ni ture of Christ; but the Supreme Church Couucil overruled this judgment on the ground that Dr. Sydow had not propoun ded his heresies from the pulpit on Sun day, but in a lecture given in a secular place on a secular day of the week ! But now conies Mr. Hossbach frankly avow ing his latitudinariauisifi from the pulpit, in his trial sermon as a candidate for St. James' church ; and on the basis of that sermon he is elected by the congregation to be its pastoi. Whether this call shall be sanctioned by Mr. Hossbach's induction iuto office is the question now before the Supreme Church Council. In the mean time he has been elected chairman of the Berlin Synod right under the noses of the Council. . The case is likely to be dispos ed, of by declining to yistall him over St. James', because this is an influential parish, and some members protest against his settlement, but to leave him in his place in St. Mark's, because that is an out-of-the-way parish, and nobody objects to him ! Such a decision, like that iu the Sydow ease, would of course evade t he real issue, and create new complications for the fu ture. - Bible Printing at Beirut. In the Sundcty School Times, Prof. Isaac II. Hall gives an account of the operations of the American Press at Beirut, and speaks in this wiic-of the Arabic Scriptures. ' The Arabic Bible, printed by the Ameri can Bible "Society in New' York, is well known ; but it s not so well known in this country what excellent provision U made for the wide and varied circulation of "that excellent version. A verv mmmnn i it rvno I sion. is that the edition above- mpn, ?a the only one. That edition m a ma-nificent I quarto, but not only the whole BUie, oui the separateNew Testament and Jsalm, make too large a book to handle convc- nientiy, Yet it is widely circulated. One may see it even in the kitchens in Palestine and Syria, diligently read by the servants. This edition is also printed and circulated by the British and Foreign Bible Society; a set of the electrotype plates having been presented to that body by the American Bible Society, - . But it is to the American Press at-Beirut that one must go in order to see in what shapes that Bible goes out among the peo ple. The New York edition is there for sale, of course, aswcllas the other early, most valuable one, with marginal references and various readings; the former at the price of forty piasters, or one dollar and sixty cents, gold ; the latter a few copies only remaining at two dollars. But be-1 sides these are the vowelled Bible, as great a work as exists in the Arabic languages, costing, in the best binding, "five dollars in gold, and in the cheaper, two dollars. Then comes the reference Bible, in smaller type, , costing from four dollars to one, according to the binding; then one in still smaller type, costing from two dollars to one; and several other editions in lxth fonts of type, at different prices. Such a thing as ' an Arabic pocket Bible is now to be had, be sides many different forms6f the New Tes tament, the Psalms, the separate Gospels, and other portions of the Scriptures, at prices cheaper than could be afforded in America. There is also printed a series of bi-linguals; the Gospel of John in English and Arabic, Frencli and Arabic, Turkish and Arabic- The smallest New Testament is a volume a little thicker, but not as long and no broader than the smallest English Bible ever printed. These various editous go not only through Palestine and Syria, but to Arabia and Egypt, and wherever the Arabic language is sjMken, They arc read not only. by Pro testant Christians, but by Moslems; for the latter acknowledge the Old Testament wri ters and Jesus as prophets. No former Arabic version can at all compare with this; and all the operations of matrix-cutting, type-founding, and elcctrotyping nec essary, go on there. The machinery of Bible producing ;and circulating are won derfully effective. Bishop Marvin's book, a description of his travels around the world, is out. The character of the work is already known to our patrons who have read the extracts we have made from the Bishop's published letters. VESET9NE FOR Chills, Shakes, FEVER AND AGUE. TAUHORO, X.

CICEUO W. HAlHilS, Editur and 1'roprietor. KERR CRAIGE, 3tttornc2 at lato, Snliotoxxry, 2M. O. PKOSPECTUS OF The. Davidson Record, well known to the people of Davidson county as their campaign paper of 1-S7C, is lcH;iu-d to meet a public went if tl.e business men and of the interests ol the county. The lime has come when almost every cuoutr finds it indispensable to have, a public journal of its own to represent its inter ests in liie various afi'tirs of business, local and general. There is no county in the State that would not be greatly benetited by a journal within its bounds especially devoted to the pro motion of the local interests of the CoiuTiumiiy, Such a paper appeals very trongly to the par tiality and pride of the section it serves; and every citizen should ive it his countenance and support it liberally, as a means ot increas ing its usefulness and exteiidiug its influence at home and abroad. The stronger it becomes the more beneficial it will prove; and as the money retpii red for its support is far less than the matei i ll Kood it does, it is the best invest ment any county can make. The Record will of necessity take part in the politics of the country. It it is the duty of every man to keep himself well informed in respect to public a flairs, ami to lake a decided, and manly part therein, il is especially the duty of the editor of a newspaer faithfully to investigate all questions ot public concern, and give to his readeis the facts of the same. The undersigned pledges himself to be true in this regard. He will not knowingly deceive his readers for the sake of party-or anything else; but bv laying before them the facts, as he may enabled to obtain them, will endeavor to aid all to act wisely for the general good. As Hlitical matters now stand, his personal con victions are most decidedly in aceord with the view and feelings of the Democratic Conserva tive party, ile believes that the efforts of thin party in 1 870 wrenched from the grasp of tyr ants and corruptioiiists in high place the civil liberty that we now enjoy. He regards that great victory as second only to that gained by the fathers of 177C. The danger was immi nent, the constant tendency fatal, but the cour age, wisdom and devotion of the Conservative party proved itself equal to the occasion, and gloriously rescued ihe imperiled-liberties of the people. While that party shall continue more pure and truly patriotic than any other, he intends to be fully identified with it. Bjit the main design of The Record is to serve the county of Davidson in all the ways it may be possible to advance her interests and pro mote the welfare of her people. And to this end the undersigned desires such intimate re lations with her citizens as shall enable him to perform his duty efficiently. The paper will he published weekly at $1 a year in advance. It will be small, hut neatly printed on new type; and the proprietor hopes to make up in quality what may be- lacking in size. The first number will appear about the first week in January, 1878.
