Several persons have been suggested by the public and press rather than by the trustees of the college.

He must be a leader of thought, oné who has a taste for current events, who has an opinion of his own upon them, and the capacity to express it in the right time and way, He must be a man of good dress, one who can be easily approach. ed, who can readily respond to ur- gent calls, who can fluently and grace fully speak, in the name of Queen's, and do it honor, Being all this, and the the late principal is to be his successor-- thes per so versatile, he ad +f more, work of duplicated by son whom the trustees of the univer sity seek iv not very easily found.

Munhall, of Germantown, Pa., attended a great Methodist gathering at Chicago, and the idea that the rules of the church should be changed. = "There is absolutely no 'new' trine of the Methodist church," he; "no Methodist may dance, cards, or engage in any such amuse ments without petjuring himself any more now than he could fifty years ago. Much of the socalled higher criticism is bot christianity, and is to Sin is the same hateful and damning thing it bas always been. The fires of hell are as hot in this ax in any other country. He traced the history of the Metho- fist church, and pointed out that it was raised up to the very things it was now sought to make it tolerate, said he. "Iustead of renouncing 'the vain pomp and glory of the world, with all covetons desires of the same,' thou sands of Methodists are courting the world and conforming to its fashions, finds, and follies, and a great popular movement, that promises to succeed at the next general conference, is be ing pushed forward with energy to re move from the discipline the rule that forbids dancing, card playing, and theatre going. "Instead of the denounced doe said play be deplored. combat simple forms of public worship of the fathers," went on Mr. Muunhall, "some Methodist churches, with their vested choirs, provessionals, and elaborate ritualisn are becoming as formal and unspivi tual as can be. These things are un- pleasant to say and hear, but say what we will and think as we may, Methodism has lost the fire, however, and fervor that were characteristic of in the days of her greatest victories." Dr. Munhall is described as an old timer, as an exponent the The chances and of views that never change. are that the rules of the church, will, however, be modified at the American his outbreak seems to be late and useless There was once a church which could only sing the psalms of David without general conference, and violent organ accompaniment, which regarded the kist o'whistles as little short of the device of the devil.

There is more gowning the choir than in the preacher, that is when it is thrust before the people and in its variation of fashions the congregation something to think about.

London, June 20.--A pleasing pression has been created by the port that the king has intimated wish to have the young marquis Bute attend the coronation, despite the fact that the latter, according to striet rule and precedent, would not be entitled to admission to the abbey with his fellow peers. Lord Bute will im re his ol came of age to-day, but as he will not take his seat in the house of lords be fore the coronation ceremony he would not be allotted the seat proper to his rank at thé great funbtion next week, if there was a strictadherence to of ficial etiquette. It now seems prob able, however, that the of form will be waived and the young marquis will be found seated among his elders, instead of on the bench provided for peers and peeresses in their own right who are minors. Ii king Edward makes an exception in this ease it will not be the first time he has showed special favor to ward the young marquis. A vear ago when the marquis of Bute was received in audience by the king for the pur pose of returning to the sovereign his dead father's insignia of the order of the Thistle, the king was exceptionally cordial and gracious to the young peer, and by hie conduct he gave all to understand that the ill will and almost downright animotity towards the court manifested by the late lord Bute during the late reign in con nection with the treatment to which his aunt, the unfortunate lady Flora Hastings, had been subjected while a member of the royal household sixty vears 'ago had hecome p thing of the past. : The permission fo Jord Bute to sit with his elders will leave an even doz en little peers and peeresses to occupy the special bench.
