This lasted some time, when the foot was immersed in a basin of water, hoping to quench the light, but to no purpose, for it con- tinued. under the surface of the water, the fumes rising above.

For nearly nineteen centuries we have been content to accept the writings of the Evangel ists, who enjoyed personal intercourse with their Master, as affording us a suf- , ficient insight into Pie life, and we have , even imagined that the apostolical bio- graphies could not be improved. But P1 we have been sorely mistaken. What 1‘] did the disciples, poor, ignorant fisher- men, whose only knowledge was the guidance of a boat over the rough wat ers of Galilee, know when compared to the efi‘ulgent Beecher, who preaches sen- sational sermons in the noon tide of the nineteenth century? What 18 the teso timony of the apostles, which many of them sealed with their blood ,compared with the utterances of the shining oracle of Plymouth Church? How can we compare St. John or St. Peter, who earned their bread by daily toil before - they became fishers of men, to the rela tive of the female who earns her living by abusing and libelling the illustrious dead?
