The Canadian Pacific Railway Company has just agreed to the pro- poflttl from the North West for the promotion of matrimony among the settlers. Under the new plan the single man in the West will purchase ^patrimonial ticket for Ontario, pay- ing the usual return fare. On pre- senting the ticket some weeks later, with a marriage certificate, at an Ontario station, he will be entitled to a free ticket to his North- West home for his bride. This is a humane arrangement, and is calculated to produce much happiness. The only danger is that some excellent people may think the one fare for husband and wife shoiild be general, and, in- deed there is logic in such a view, for has not the clergyman made the two individuals one • â€" Mr. Spurgeon has withdrawn from the Baptist Union. In announcing his decision to withdraw and replying to his critics he says â€" "To pursue union at the expence of the truth is treason to Jesus. To tamper with his doctrine is to bpcome traitors to him. We have before us the wretch- ed spectacle of professedly orthodox Christians publicly avowing union with those who deny the faith, calling the fall ol man a fable and denying the personality of the Holy Ghost " Replymg to the question why he does not start a new denomination, he says that it is a queston for which he haS no liking that there are enough de- nominations already, and that if an- other were formed the thieves and robbers'who have entered the other gardens walled around would enter it also, so nothing would bo gained. Baptists generally regret Mr. Spurge- on's decision, and are urging him to reconsider it. • ;« '±o' â-  w.

There is a general weakness on the part of many to magnify the good qualities and christian graces of a deceased friend, yea, even to extol such person I as having been saints, or some kind of angelic personage in human form, and this custom or practice of laudation is frequently carried even into the pulpit. While we readily admit that there are those whose life in general deserve favorable comment, and. in some respects we may safely follow their example, yet, the universal weaknesses and shortcomings of humanity are such that it would appear unwise to represent the departed, m any case, as having been almost, if not altogether perfection, while perhaps in some instances, little was ever heard or known of the virtues while living, of the selfsame individual. How much better it would be to eultivAte and extend a spirit of be- nevolence and christian forbearance towards those witli whom we are brought in contact, while living, in- stead of reiweissiug their virtues and magnifying their faults and failings as is too often the ease. How often the actions of our neighbors are censured and their motives suspected, ai^ hasty and severe judgement pronounc- ed, when no vaUd reason could be as- signed for such hash candnsions.
