EAfTEH IlMDAV THOrGHTS.
To the JournaJa ecpedallr devoted to
the expression of the relKoua acot
ments, wishes and labors of a Christian
people, is delegated the full elaboration
of tlK ideas involved in the above sug
gested thoojihU. ' Bnt the secular
press, ' us. the representative of the
general thought and fcdinir. presumably
general! and essentially Christian, is
. ' l I . . . r ii-
not atat nnrjfcii iron) tne duty oi reciuiinj;
the sk-mn work upon which the structure
of Christianity is erected, or preclude from
participation in the sacred and pleasura
ble emotions those events awake.
Tnerefore, Thb Citizen, strivuiK ns it
does t direct the thought of its readers
to matters of high interest, takes its
rightful liberty to say a few words on
one of these rHre occasions, which occurs
on Easter Sanday,
No thoughtful person can fail to be im
pressed with the amount of careful con
ajderatioa which men on all sides arc giv
ing, to tbiugs more or less religious in
their nature. The most popular mnga
sines are those which devote a portion of
their pages to discussions by distin
guished writers uch, for instance, as M r.
Ingersoll and Mr. Gladstone, each using
all of bis wonderful ability, and Warning,
to attack and uphold the Christian fuitb,
The novel which is most extensively read
to-day, is one treating entirely of what ;
few years ago would have been consid
ered by the multitude as a Wei abstract
doctrine, Scarcely a day pHSses that we
do not overhear,' prrbniw on a street
corner, a disrussion between two friends
as to whether Robert Elsmere was right
in bis earlier or later belief.
. A subject then which is interesting the
work! to so great on extent, it seems to
us, even we, who devote almost ullofour
time to temporal concerns, may venture
to discuss briefly. -"
No one can fail to acknowledge tlie
wonderful effort of the religion of Jesus
Christ the detriMl Naxurenc, "the man
of sorrow and acquainted with grief."
From a beginning aniiaratitly ininili
cant, it hus continued U grow through
nineteen centuries, until it controls tlic
great mUmim of the world. How is this
acknowledged fact to be accounted for?
We reply becnuc iu advocates place the
evidence of its truth on theestablishment
of an historiciil fact, to-wit i "The kesur
ration.' They claim that they have
such absolute proof of this as will satisfy
any fair mind. If this fuct can be dis
proved, then Christians acknowledge
they have no ground left to' ask men to
believe any of their dtx-trines. This proof
has been examined time and time again,
and to u it seems alisolutely ttnansuila
ble. The men m ho first testified to the
fact proved their sincerity by suffcrinj;
death rather than deny what they hurl
teen. Their testimony could not have
been corrupted, because all worldly in
ducements were made to produce proof
on the other sider.
The effect of this plain straight forward
statement, "if tin; resurrection is fuct,
Christianity is true, otherwise it is not,
has been whut we see it to-day. When a
brilliant French thinker came to Talley
rand telling him that he bad discovered
a new religion, but complaining that
men would pay no attention to it, Tnl
lryrnnd shrewdly olwerved, "go Hml
get crucified and rise again the third
day."
No new religion will revuil with men
until it is willing to submit to the same
line of proof as the old one has dune, and
is still ready to do.
But men still sny as of old, "How are
the dead raised up?" Can it lie any more
difficult to answer this than to explain
how the bright, bcuutiful flowers are
covering with glory our hillsides where,
a short time since, all was bare and
gloom. The most diligent search could
scarcely kavt discovered the riend, dc
caved, bulb or seed, but tlie flower has
sprung from it nevertheless. Wbiebof us
on yrsteruay could haw round the thor
oughly tlccom)Nrd body of the crysnlis,
which we rcmemlier, ns the ugly grub
worm, but we all acknowledge that thin
beautiful, bright butterfly of to-day has
sirung from it If these things, which
oecnr each year, under our very eyes, are
possible, why shall we contend tiutt the
greater resurrection ltfinMBail)Ur,
We hold then that no new religion
needed, and none will certainly be ac
cepted with any less degree of evidence
than the Christian invites fur itself, but
ws by mi menus sny that we need no re
newed religiouj ou the contrary, nil
Christiana acknowledge this need intlieir
own case, and, in proportion to their sin
cerity, they trek to oetuire it, and we be
lieve they are succeeding more and more,
year by year, as they are striving earn
estly, most earnestly, for the princiittl of
universal love, that Heaven born chari
ty, which is the very "llond of i'eace and
of all Virtue."

The statement ofCapt, Ben Newland
to the Thi CrtUK some days ago that
, ,
m.ny whit peoiJ. m moving St t.
W aalimnon Territory hai attracted con-1
sidcrulile attention. The Rakish News
Olwerver aptly eiruk of it as tlie "sliilt
ing" fever. That d srrilici. it, Utr there i
no reason in tlie world but pure restless
ness to induce our people to leave a sec
tion into which others are even more
rapidly entering, attracted by climate
and resources. Tlie Greenville News
some days since culled attention to this
subject, noting the fuel that by fur the
greatest number of Oklahoma boomer
were coming from tlie northwest, a sec
tion which is itself the destination yearly
of thousands of immigrants. Many
northwestern farmers are looking south
ward air ikw homes in a climate where
they will be free from the terrible bliz
zards, crop disasters and other draw
backs in that section, and it is from
thence that almost every portion of the
Southern country is receiving most of its
substantial immigrants. In view of these
(acts the suggestion that migrations
from the South to the Northwest arc
more in the nature of a fever than a
chronic malady is timely. Indeed, tlie
American people as a whole are inclined
to be migratory within the vast limits
of their own country.
. THEIR TWO VIKWM.
The Baltimore Sun and other leading
advocates of civil service Keform are
beginning to show dint mis over President
Harrison's attitude toward their doc
trine. The Sun says:
The Sun has accordingly held that tlie
15,000 persons subject to the law who
were in tittice wnen tne law took eneci
should have their fitness tested by the
siunc examinations employed to test the
fitncsl of -new candidates lor aiixmt-
ment. Thus would be secured lioth Hie
explicit object of tbc law, which is to
have the service composed only oi yrr
suns of proved fitness, and the just result
of havini; the service reiiresentcd in fair

view of tlie matter was not. however,
Mr. Cleveland's view, and at the close of
his term the nunilicr of republicans in
federal offices at Washington was vastly
irreater than tlie number of democrats.
the latter had entered the service through
examinations oien to republicans and
democrats alike. Their fitness was ap
proved by tlie only test known to the
law. Their moral and legal claim to re
tention in oltice on a change of adminis
tration was therefore much stronger
than that of tl.e 15,000 unexamined
ncrsons whom Mr. Lkvcluud retained
Vet it is this democratic minority of the
subordinate officeholders who are now
heinif dismissed in im-reusing numbers,
Mr- Harrison's promise wus not only to
maintain the ohservnnce ol the civil-
service In w, but to extend it. It is to be
hoped thut the promise will not be for
gotten.
THK HKIMTOI. Kil.
We have a Kslalciir,d from Ir. A.tiobe
to lr W. W. Wing, stating that our Ten
ncssec friends are most anxious to take
decisive steps towards securing railroai
connection between Aslievillc and Bristol
We van assure them thut many iersons
lie re arc also deeply interested. Col
Thud Coleman was in tow. I yesterday
und from a conversation with him, we
are led to hope thut a preliminary sur
vey will very stum be commenced, and
speedily completed. .
Col. Coleman confirms our opinion as
to the prm titaliility of this route by
which Bristol can be reached at a dis
tance of eighty-three miles, Insteud of one
hundred and forty seven, as now trav
elvd, and at the same lime developing u
section comparatively unknown, und of
wonderful fertility and grc.'tt mineral re
sources.
As soon as these facts can lie cmUiIk
lishcd by a survey, we have no doubt the
money can be procured to build the rail
way.

Col. I- (J. Washington's contribution
to the Washington l'ost on the sulcc
of the Washington family has levrloittl
such a multitude that the committee on
the New York bull is in despair ns to
what is to be done about them ull. They
are descendants of Bushrod Washingun
who inhcritedM t. Vernon from the Fathc
ofhis Country. But .the greatest extension
of tlie stock seems to have come imme
diately from Col. J no. A. Washington
of Gen. R. K. Lee's stuff during the lute
war. It was he who sold Ml. Vernon to
the present Lndics' Mt. Vernon Associ
ation.

Chattanooga Times: After all the in
h-rnul howling by Republican jHilit kiium
and press over the government suits
against the Bell telephone jobbers and
robliers, Gen. Harrison's administration
has determined to press tlie cases with
vigor, and has retained solicitor-general
Jcuks and Mr. Thunnuii us counsel; and
this may be put down us another series
of lira and slanders disputed of. The Kc
