Boom IN Freiguts.—An exchange says: An interview with St. John shipowners’ reveals » more hopeful feeling than has pre- vailed for some time. The general tendency offreights is upwards Three St. John ves- sels have been fixed to lad deals at Quebec at forty shillings. Dead freighte are irmer from that port. Coal freights from New York there are up thirty cents, and from Cape Breton fifteen cents, Oo case oil from New York to Shanghai there is an advance of five gents and from nitrate ports sbout five shil- lings above the lowest point. Grain freights from New York have recently stiffened and Argentina offers grainly freely #t resent. While there is no boom, there is an all round firmer feeling.
Recreation ror Mippre Ace.—Mere walking exercise, aithough it is invaluable, hardly fuifils the idea of perfect recreation. Sir James Paget says ‘* good active recrea- tions” ought to include “ uncertainties, wonders and opportunities for the exervise of skill in something different from the regular work.” Why should the literary man, the doetor and the stockbroker or the merchant not play cricket after45? What is to become of his dinner hour, is it asked! If a better luncheon were taken at mid-day and a lighter dinner at six in the evening there is no reason whatever, says a writer in The Hospital, why a man of 45 and up to 65 or 70 should not be in the cricket field at 7 30 and pley briskly uatil 9or9 30. Aw houranda half at cricket after a light dinner would make middle- aged men so young that they would not know themselves, Writers would write twice as brilliantly, and business men would be cleverer and keener by half.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The Patriot and the Briggs Case.
Sin,—The Patriot of Saturday, in defend- ing the action of the General Assembly of the Presbyteriau Church in the United States in suspending the Rev. Dr. Briggs from the ministry of that church for alleged heresy, appears to have lost sight of one important fact. For, while, doubtless, Dr. Briggs did hold and teach doctrines con- trary tothe doctrinal standards of that church, yet many of the most eminent of Presbyterian divines contend that Dr. Briggs waa not thereby guilty of disloyalty to the Presbyterian Church as the doctrines of that chureh are at present in a state of transition, and that if every clergyman of that church were compelled to teach just such docrines as he has subscribed to, very few would be left to teach any doctrines at wil. One example only, in proof of this, will suffice. Every Presbyterian minister has subscribed to the Cunfession of Faith “ss containiug the system of — doctrine
taught in the Holy Scriptures.” This is some of its teaching :— ‘TIT, By the decree of God, for the
manifestation of His glory, some men and angels are predestiaated unto everlasting life and others fore-ordained to everlasting death. “IV. These angels and men, thus predestin- ated and fore-ordained, are particularly and unchangeably designed; and their number is so certain aad definite that it cannot be either increased or diminished.” (Chapter 3.) Comment is needless, The world knows that nearly all Presbyterian ministers now believe and teach just the reverse of this. I am not contending that it is right for any man to subscribe to that which he does not fully and sincerely believe, but J do say that if a church sees fit to allow such liberty, it certainly ought not to be so severe on one individual because he exercises this liberty a '‘ittle differently from the rest.

Twenty-Four Hours Saved.
IN THE C. P. B'S. TIME ACROSS THE CONTI- NENT.
Vice-President Shaughtressy arrived in Montreal on Saturday from the Pacific Coast. When interviewed by a corres- pondent, he remarked that, although times were very dullin the southwestern stats, the towns of Vancouver, Victoria, New Westminster and other places on the Cana- dian side are experiencing very considerab- le prosperity. Mr. Shaughnessy said thet the company had not yet received full data as to the area under grain this
year in Manitoba and the terri- tories, but the general impression was that the increase over last
year would be from 20 to 30 per cent. The question of building a line through Crew's Nest pass would be decided upon President VanHorne’s return, or about two weeks later on. The vice- president likewise gave a complete denial tu L’Electeur'’s story cf last week to the effect that the Canadian Pacific was about to transfer the Empress of India and her sister ships of the Oriental servise to the Quebec and Liverpool route. Shaughnessy and his friends returned by train running by the new time table, and making the trip from Vancouver to Montreal in four days and twenty hours, instead of five days and twenty hours, as formerly.
