Two Dol Tare and 50 menu pay for the trip to the new Jem Saum and you May get Back the Best Wayvo Quot of no Yew Yogi Ean if you want to. All the woman s fault. Of late years Man is manifesting a disposition to treat woman As a rational being. In the beginning it was t intended that she should come to much. Man was the pet of the creator and woman would t have been made at All had Noc Adam seemed Down in the Mouth and in need of a helpmate. Eve was intended for Adam s uses and this was the idea that attached to woman during the lord s More immediate management of affairs. The creator May have had something better in store for her but her inquisitiveness turned him against her. It is a matter of record that she listened to the tempter and thus betrayed an unsuspecting Man to his ruin. When we contemplate the trouble that has come from this woman s Indis cession it is no wonder we doom her dependents to a life of slavery to the pots and kettles. But for this woman there would have been no hard work to do no blowing and grabbing no building of Bridea of Honwea of Nul toads Flat a to ship toe Tetra. There would t have been a Thorn nor a Thistle. Grains would have grown and fruits and men would have had nothing to do but stroll in Giocnda midst Flowers and eat to the full. There would t have been a Railroad nor a factory and no need for either. No wonder the Quot almighty Quot was angry when he saw the frustration of of Hia plans by this inquisitive woman. No wonder he sentenced her to a life of sorrow. But it seems that even then he did t understand the full perversity of her nature. In his decree that her desire should be toward her husband to her subsequent pain and sorrow he did t appear to foresee that it would to often extend beyond. It is evident that the lord aimed to limit that desire and that he gave it to the woman to plague and punish her for her disobedience and the overthrow of his almighty plans for the happiness of his creature Man. But she has proved a disturbing element in Quot the plan Quot All the Way along. No wonder she has been Cut out and doomed to the Kitchen and Cotton factory. There is no provision for her a Paradise so she Seta up a Paradise of her own wherever she is least Wise this is the inference from the eagerness that possess the Quot sons of god Quot in seeking her society. The invent Ink Cranks. The inventors that were to meet in Cincinnati to form the National a Socia Tion of american inventors met March 2tth, but to break up in a Row. They a re like the infidel of whom they Art which anyhow hard to organize because each one a a whole Community. Without a Man will yield something of Hia individuality there a no Auch thing As organizing him. And besides every in Ventor or infidel knows Mere than any a ther inventor or infidel and is a mad As fire at him. The Green eyed monster always marches aide by aide with the Man of Genius and the average Reform or the worker in the Field of Progress a if be finds anybody excelling him in the work immediately becomes an enemy of Taftt Man. But the inventory succeeded in organizing. It waa Given out in trumpet notes and some beating of Gonna that ool. Ingersoll was to address the inventive Cranks who by the Way Are the Salt of the Earth but we do not read that the illustrious Demosthenes put in a very extensive the Cyclone of March 25th a roofed the Piear Terian Church in Scipio ind., and blew Down its Tower and yet Kennedy Brown s barns were bigger and escaped and were quite near enough for it an Active Cyclone under divine guidance to have reached. Death of a Brave infidel. John Vest of Scottsburg ind., died at Hia Home March 28 the. A Brief note from mrs. Vest was received Here on the 30th, in which she says he died in the Faith he had lived and without anxiety or fear. Or. Vest had been a great sufferer from organic disease of a painful character for Many months. A few years ago his disease which involved the kidneys and bladder and rendered his life a Burden yielded to medical treatment under the direction of the writer of this notice and he had about a year of tolerably Good health. Then there was a relapse that baffled All efforts for his Relief. Or. Vest was a level headed honest Man. He heartily despised All Shams false pretences and hypocrisies. He had read Many books and was an accurate and close observer. Or. Vest must have been near 60 years of age. He was twice married. His children by the first wife Are grown. His second wife a most excellent lady and who was ceaseless in her care and most devoted to him during his Long weary weeks of suffering survives him. Now a Days infidels can die in peace and not be annoyed by ignorant and revengeful priests As Thomas Paine was. And so we hear no Moro of infidels dying repentant and in an agony of fear. It is Only the Christian who has been taught to fear a revengeful god who meats death with dread and doubt and apprehensions of the future. Things have undergone a remarkable change in the last seventy five years. Stories about Faith cures and cures by prayer circulated by interested and dishonest clergymen who play upon the Hopes and fears of hysterical Young women and ignorant believers in witchcraft and miracles Are too silly to Merit refutation. These stories Are started from time to time to stiffen up. The weakening Public respect for the Church and Ita Mirac Nona Power. The Brazen impudence that can a circulate these stories in the Ace of the Garfield prayer test a amazing and it shows the desperation of the cause that required this flying in the face of common a Nae truth and decency a a Meana of retaining Ita Graap upon the ignorance and credulity of the unreasoning multitude. A passenger who hails from the South wants to educate Hia son for a veterinary surgeon and asks the Captain to state Here the Best course to pursue. The Best course to pursue with the Young infidel is to learn him How to be a Good Farmer and when his horses Are sick or lame to turn them out on a Good pasture and let them alone. He will do Well too to Send 25 cents Here for a Book that will teach him All he needs to know about the the charges against Paine reiterated by a holy minister of the gospel in Decatur tenn., As we learn from a correspondent from that place have been so often refuted and proved false that further exposure of their falsity is superfluous and the rather As there Are no Means by which a clerical lie once invented can Ever be effectually squelched while there is a holy Man of god alive upon Earth or sea or in the air. Robert seems to have gotten his second wind. Once a year he visits the larger cities to the terror and dismay of the clergy. This time especially at Chicago he gave them an unusual stirring up and left them in the wildest commotion. Brother Gideon Marsh comes in with two recruit and must have wings. He also ends his photo. The Resolute sex Preston of this would discourage a spook and would afford but poor Hope for a holy Angler for precious souls. Brother Egholm of Milwaukee Contin Nea to place the ironclad under Obliga Tiona that the Promise of wings and a Harp a almost inadequate to pay. We Ahall have to throw in an extra White Robe and a conquering Crown. Robert g s Chicago speech kept his audience convulsed with uproarious laughter but to save space we have omitted the words laughter and applause which followed almost every sentence. Several palatable dishes that should have been served up this trip Are left sitting upon the Side tables. There is Salt enough in them to preserve them and the table is loaded anyhow. Stirring up the clerical be Nazerie. Col. Ingersoll lectured upon orthodoxy in Chicago March 19th. Hia lecture was listened to by an audience of 3,090 of the most intelligent people of that City. The following lord s Day the clergy mid b a combined attack upon the lecture and lecturer from the pulpit. We sub join a few passages from the sermons of several of the More prominent and Inore ignorant of the Quot divines that it will be seen that the pious moral guides did t hesitate at All to state positive falsehood a. These reports Are taken from the Chicago Tribune of March 24th. Also is Given in this paper a portion of the lecture that raised this pulpit storm. The remainder of the lecture will be Given next trip. When it is All read the Reader won t wonder at these clerical squawks. This a the severest blast Robert has Ever Given the moral guides. The Rev. Arthur Little preached before a Large congregation yesterday morning in the new England congregational Church and in Bis discourse he urged upon his people the necessity of joining the Church pointing out what they Wifred to it. Incidentally he referred to or. Ingersoll who he said had indulged in three hours of blasphemy in this City last week before an audience of 3,000 people. Or. Ingersoll did not realize what he owed the Church else he would never attack her. To the Church he owed the privilege of indulging in this blasphemy As the Church had procured for him the License and tolerance which permitted the utterance of such words and sentiments. He had his suspicions of a Man who would strike his Mother who would drive a Dagger to his Mother s heart. Or. Ingersoll had uttered one or two truths in Hia lecture he had said that the Church died hard that the Bible died hard. That was True and if the Church was allowed another Century of such dying As she had been indulging in during the glorious nineteenth Century she could allow or. Ingersoll to to on fat reaching to smaller audiences and being Ess heeded. He thanked god that Ingersoll had acknowledged that there was a possibility of immortality. He was coming to the Light As he bad never acknowledged this before. He was getting on in years and the Hope that waa born in the soul of every Man waa asserting itself. He would need All of his remaining years to adjust himself to Thia Hope and prepare himself for the world to come. Or. Little said that he had noticed several Chicago ministers advertise that they would answer or. Ingersoll. So far a he was concerned he would a soon at tempt to answer the Cyclone that passed Over Georgia Home Weeka ago. He tink de god that theae Cyclone did not do Cir often and never came in on Vicinti they Weire and Ines Abl and ways Dei Iii Abi _ them. The Church was open to Cri ism but to Day it was purer and Tomei to Ita Aima than Ever before. The Church be Aid to Many humanitarian i nation Tiona outside of it and theae institutions contrary to the ideas of or. Ingersoll had but Little influence and value without the Aid of the Church. The Rev. Thomas a. Been. The Rev. Thomaa e. Green preached at the eighth presbyterian Church yesterday morning on Quot the ethics of Faith a reply to for what if some did not Bellere Abat their unbelief make the Faith of god without effect a romans lii., 3. The speaker began by pointing out the difference Between ment and then dwelt at length on the incompleteness of science and the inability of the leading scientists to solve the problems of life and matter. Referring to Ingersoll s recent lecture attacking orthodox christianity he said Quot with nine parts of ingenious ridicule and one of rhetorical misrepresentation the attack reduced to its real substance is this an attack upon the Christian Faith because it is supernatural an exaggerated misrepresented caricature of what some single Man May have taught but that never held a place in the historic Faith and finally a most Florid and eloquent exaltation of Virtues and graces of character that the world never knew until the Star of Bethlehem shone and a tribute to types and motives of life that claimed As fruits of doubt gain their Only Beauty from the lips of he dwelt on the special domains of Faith and science showing that they were not antagonistic but rather that the one began where the other left off. Coming then to the test of practical life he said Quot i Challenge infidelity Kep Ticia ethical culture Ingersol ism to that most searching proof the testimony of Veaulta the witness of practical experience. Against the dismal dark and he Pelesa Faith of agnosticism and infidelity i match the Faith of the Ages the Creed of the Church of Christ. Not Only a Thia the oldest and longest treated Faith but i claim first that the beat the Wisest the truest men of the Agea the men whose influence Haa been Moat potent have lived and died in Thia Faith. In it have stood the men who discovered every great fundamental Law of science in it have lived the greatest poets and artiste of the world out from under Ita inspirations Havene the men who with Livingstone and de Long have Given their lives to scientific exploration and the men who with Xavier and Judson have with missionary tread been the Advance messengers of Commerce and civilization. In it stand to Day the eminent of thought words and deeds in it to Day is nourished the philanthropy the education the Endeavor that a advancing civilization and giving Light to the world. Call for the annals of unbelief and it has none for doubt is self destruction. Call for the monuments of unbelief and find them if you May. The House where Voltaire lived and wrote f Christi Anity will be extinct in half a Century is to Day a Bible House where a score of presses Are flinging Forth the word of add. Aak for the present of infidelity and judge it thereby. Seek out the men who stand beneath its Standard let Ingersoll Call in this our own Chicago for the men who ate disciples of his blasphemy and in the throng who will gather six in every ten will be the drunkards gamblers libertines Saru culottes the Lawless men who hate Law the godless men who hate god. Second i claim my Faith the Faith of the Church of Christ has left its imprint on the Best the fairest the most Beautiful of Earth. Or. Ingersoll has much to say of the Beauty and Art of ancient Greece and Rome. He has much to Tell of How the Church has destroyed the Beautiful and broken Down the artistic. In the face of such a distortion of history and fact i aay in the name of the Best authorities of ancient Art that save in the physical the licentious the sensual not half a dozen carving of ancient Art Are Worth the keeping while for the Art of eighteen centuries All the Art the Earth treasures in music poetry and picture. The glory of the Nazarene bits been its Chiefest Light. Doubt never wrote a pm nor Sang a song nor Drew an outline nor raised a spire that the world Ever the speaker went on to Point out that Charity and humanity were the outgrowth of the Christian religion they being comparatively unknown in Pagan lands and times that the hospitals almshouses and other houses of Charity which abound in Christian centres Are directly due to the teachings of christianity while the Benevolence of unbelief Are non existent. The Bev. S. J. M Phe Isoif. The Rev. S. J. Mcpherson preached last evening before a Large congregation in the second presbyterian Church taking for his subject the query Quot i orthodox religion dying out Quot it was an answer to the recent lecture of col. Ingersoll. Or. Mcpherson spoke from the following text for he must reign till he hath put All enemies under Hii feet.�?1. Cor., xiv., 25. Again said the reverend speaker they had been challenged with the familiar agnostic boast that Quot orthodox religion a dying out of the civilized certainly if it waa dying out anywhere it would be within the civilized world for wherever there was no orthodox religion there was no modern civilization and wherever modern civilization was greatest there orthodox religion waa strongest. The idea that Quot orthodoxy a a religion that no longer satisfies the intelligence of this country Quot and that unbelief had been growing during the last ten years was due either to Gross ignorance or to Afeei falsehood. It interpreted sober history As a negro minstrel would interpret Shakespeare. It might Start a Guffaw but it would not stand the teat of Plain facts. The agnostic said the speaker always clamoured for statistics but never gave any. Look at the increase of resources in orthodox churches. According to or. Dorchester s tables in the last Hundred years christianity had gained 210,000,-000 adherents and in the last eighty four years it had gained More adherents than in the previous eighteen centuries. Con Traat the growth of Church edifices with the buildings reared by infidels. The Paine memorial building has been sold under the Hammer for Lack of funds to maintain it. During the last ten years about 28,000 churches had been erected in the United s Atea. Nearly 100,000 orthodox ministers were preaching the gospel in 1880. The speaker said he profoundly believed that there was no More sincere body of men under heaven than these and he knew something about their inside views too. Heresy among them was rare though their enemies were always watching for the slightest misstep. Rapidly a our population was increasing orthodoxy was growing even faster. The simple fact was that any one desiring to be on the winning Side must make haste to enlist under the Banner of King Immanuel. Empty words would die but not True words fact lived christianity would never suffer from those who fought it in the old chinese method of pounding loud Drums so Long As the facts remained quietly on her Side. The Bible continued to be Moat popular Book in the world As shown by figures while the organs of the atheist were languishing. Orthodox christianity was certainly not dying out. With the Reading classes. The majority of our leading educators were avowed christians. Our City charities were most All religious and none were avowedly infidel. About seventy five apostate jews and agnostics met and listened to lectures under the name of the piety for ethical culture. They hired two trained nurses to visit the sick poor which waa Christian but much of the Money paid these nurses came from the orthodox. Did All of these facts show that orthodox christianity waa dying out on the contrary infidelity waa a failure. It waa a old As the Sadd Cees but what it done in l,900years? where had it accomplished anything even in free America he Charig infidelity with stupid Ira Orance. It chiefly affected youth like the measles or Chicken pox. The Best education of the age was against it. He charged infidelity with All that was bad and base. Jesus Schrut waa the majority of Mankind it said in conclusion. While the memory of him endured christianity would be popular. While his Hope could thrill the heart heaven would be certain and infidelity impossible. Have Christ alone and you had All. The Bev. W. T. Mes a. The Rev. W. T. Meloy pastor of the first presbyterian Church delivered a. Sermon last evening the subject of which was Quot is death a Wall or a door Quot it waa apparently suggested by the recent lecture of col. Ingersoll in Central music Hall. The reverend gentleman started out with the assertion that Home do not know anything and do not Olieve , and it is a pitiable fact that they Are the very people who set themselves up As the teachers of irreligion. Should any one attempt to lecture on any other subject with the aame self confessed Lack of any knowledge wha Tao Ever on the matter he would be hissed from the platform. The Only answer agnosticism gives to questions of religion is Quot i Don t know Quot its response to the Faith of centuries is "1 Don t believe or. Meloy said thai in order to build an argument on any subject there must be some admitted premises but it was impossible to argue with unbelievers because they denied everything. To the questions Quot is there a god Quot Quot Are we created and responsible beings Quot Quot is there a future state Quot Quot is death a Wall or a door through which life passes to a higher sphere Quot Quot who made you where did you come from where Are you going the agnostic answers Quot i Don t the speaker Here related an incident in illustration of a vessel challenged at sea the skipper giving prompt and satisfactory answers to the demands As to the port of Hail destination cargo etc., and then compared it with the agnostic crafts Quot sailing from you Don t know whence with you Don t know what to you can t Tell he was not arguing with Ingersoll he might better dispute with a Blind Man about colors for a Blind Man would admit Taftt there we in varying hues and shades but Ingersoll confessed that he knew nothing at All. Or. Meloy was talking to those whose education taught them to know and believe in god. A person believing that at death the soul was extinguished As the life of a Bird that flies against a Wall had no Conception of the dignity of human existence. Materialism held that thought was the product of the organized matter of the brain and that the destruction of the one involved the destruction of the other but if the soul and body were distinct substances the death of one was not necessarily followed by extinction of the other. The Universal belief in a hereafter held by All races and nations and numerous scriptural passages were quoted in support of the Dogma of immortality. God would not have called himself the god of Jacob Isaac and Abraham if those ancient prophets were dead they still lived and would live on forever. The agnostics he compared to the jewish sect of Sadd Cees of ily he said the former were too cowardly to come out boldly and say Quot there is no future Quot but sneaked behind the shelter of Quot i Don t or. Meloy asked what effect the agnostic s unbelief would have on his value As a witness in court. The Correct form of oath was to speak the whole truth and nothing but the truth Quot As you Ahall account to god at the great the agnostic takes the oath and then says he does t know whether there is a god or not. Is life property or reputation Safe in such hands the Appeal to the future Means nothing to him his testimony is 7wt Worth a Feather s weight in any court. Another consequence of agnosticism was the debasement of life it encouraged the doctrine of the epicure to Quot eat drink and be merry for tomorrow you in summing up the argument in favor of a future existence or. Meloy said it was the uniform testimony of All Wise men it had been taught in every age the psalms declared it the whole fabric of society was held together by it and it was necessary 4o admit it for if there was no future there was no god. In conclusion he advised his hearers if they did not believe in another world to say so openly not shirk the responsibility in the agnostic Quot i Don t do. Kit Bedoe. The Rev. Or. Kittredge preached in the third presbyterian Church last night on Quot or. Ingersoll s lecture Quot choosing for Hia text la. Peter iii., 3-4. He said that a Large portion of the lecture had been frequently delivered by Ingersoll and others of his stamp before under different titles. The whole lecture was nothing More than a Gigantic illustration of palpable ignorance or a wilful distortion of facts. Or. Ingersoll declared that orthodoxy or religion was dying out was a hopelessly sick Man. This assertion was a glaring falsehood since the carefully and truthfully prepared statistics of the different religious denominations proved that instead of decreasing the number of converts to Christ s cause were increasing at the rate of not thousands. But millions every year in every Quarter of the known world. Or. Ingersoll s assertion in this respect was like the whistling of a Small boy at a task simply to keep Hia course up. He May try to make himself believe Thia lie but in Hia heart he cannot do it. Quot if infidelity is to act As the undertaker to religion Quot said the preacher Quot it will have to wait Home Little time for its Corpse for to All appearances we Are an exceedingly Lively sick continuing the doctor said Quot with these figures showing the strength of religion staring him in the face Zvir. Ingersoll brazenly aaa Erta that All these Are Ina Incer amp and Don t believe what they profess literally he says i alone am sincere. This is a sweep in charge without one Iota of truth to Back it up. Or. Ingersoll asks where christianity had Ever made a convert of an intelligent Hindoo or chinaman. Thi h question is readily answered by referring to the thousands of sincere chinese and Hindoos that have been converted by missionaries during the last fifty years and certainly or. Ingersoll will not go to far a to aay that not one in All theae thousands has sufficient intelligence to thinly . Or. Inger Olty cannot believe in the resurrection of god because a did not show Hiou of to Liis enemies after he had risen. Way did t he show him self because be had better business in hand. His kingdom was not of this world but was a spiritual kingdom Whdeh was not to subjugate hearts bar the Power of the holy spirit because his re Sumiec Tion was not to gratify curiosity of to secure a triumphal entry into Jerusalem but it was to Seal redemption to put death under his feet and to secure a final triumphal entry into the world amid the praising bondage of Loving human hearts. In referring to a future state Ingersoll said Quot we leave our dead with nature the Mother of us All under a seven hued Arch of Hope. Are cannot Tell whether death is a Wall or a door the beginning or end of a Day the spreading of pinions to soar or the folding forever of commenting on this or. Kittredge said Quot that is a glorious even hued Arch of Hope is it not that s a Loving by no Focient Mother of a Allisn t it it a a grand Mission for a Man to go through a weeping world trying with his rib Aldry and lies to put out the beams of the Sun of High us Ness trying with the keen Jade of a shallow sophistry to Cut from off the Marble Over our sleeping ones the words i am the resurrection and the life and engrave in their place we do not know we can not Tell we leave our dead with god the father of us All under a myriad hued Arch of Hope every Hue the Blaze of a Promise and a Hope which is a Joyful Assurance. We leave our dead with Christ the resurrection and the life who has opened a door through the Tomb which opens out on the Green Fields of immorality. Toe pm. William Cuthbertson. The item. William Cuthbertson preached at the Leavitt Stet congregational Church last evening on the Quot source and fruit of the speaker said he was shocked thursday morning in look we earn that Over 3,000 people had listened the previous evening amid thunders of applause to the invectives of an insufferable charlatan against christianity a Man whose sole Talent was a shallow smartness. Had there been a alight touch of literary culture and purity among the great Maas of people who had assembled to hear the highest and grandest subject of humanity ridiculed they would have been shocked and disgusted instead of entertained the shallow impertinent and impudent rib Aldry of Ingersoll. How could the men and women who were kept in continuous laughter that night the speaker asked understand the beatitudes of the spel they were petrified by the tirade a a politics of the world hardened be Vond the reach of truly spiritual teachings. It might be True he said that a numerical majority of the inhabitants of this City were throwing off the Christian religion but the truly cultured the enlightened people of Chicago were clinging More closely than Ever before to the truths Given them by the gospel. They were not blinded by the Sophis tries taking their Rise in petrified souls. For the in Ouela age. Isaiah 19th chapter. London ont., March 25, 84. De. Ibon cad age in acts of the apostles you will find that the same Jesus who i mentioned in no. 1, who sent the ten thousand devils to Rule Over two thousand pigs but great a general As he was and fierce a was Hia army yet every Soldier perished on the Battle Field and Only he the general escaped to Tell the tale but he waa to ashamed of the whole transaction that it would never have been known had not the keeper of the pigs blabbed it in the City. In the chapter named above i have an account of an engagement by a company of the same class of soldiers who fought the pigs but this time they were More Suee Essul and no wonder for if a legion of devils Are not a match for seven priests they deserve our pity but read and god wrought special miracles by the hand of Paul so that handkerchiefs or aprons which had previously been in Contact with his body were carried to the sick and their diseases immediately depart Odly from them and the evil spirits went out of them. The certain Vagabond jews exorcists took upon themselves to fall even those who had evil spirits in the a name of the lord Jesus saying we and Juie by Jesus whom Paul preach eth. And there were seven sons of one Seeva a jew and chief of the priests who did so and evil spirits answered and said Jesus i knew and Paul i know but who Are be and the Man in whom the evil spirit was leaped upon them and overcome them and prevailed against them so that they fled out of that House naked and wounded. Now the wonder in this great min Acle is if devils Are As fond of Man s ruin As the priests try to make us believe Why did they not kill All the priests and Send them Down into their own House where great stores of Brimstone Are stowed away but no they Only wanted s Little fun so they script every bit of clothes off those men and scratched them wounding them just a Little not very bad for As soon As they found them Velvea the object of sport for a lot of devils on account of Ming in the same condition a Adam and eve were when god went to pay them a visit the men ran away a fast As they could to hide themselves the word of god says fled but that is not True.
