To the Editor Of the Standard:
If your columns are not too much
crowded with theological discussions,
please indulge me little space in order
to crack the nuts of l. T. NJ am not
much alarmed at the Doctors wild and
demoralizing theories, for Christianity
has not much to fear from such hollow
declarations. l have been trying to find
the foundation upon which the "argu
ment" is built, ard | find it to be this,
viz: That the soul of man is part of
God and incapable of suffering.
Right here 1 would like to know of the
Doctor what he means when he uses the
term, God. The name God, used as
proper name, means, the Supreme Being;
Jehovah; the Eternal Infinite Spirit; the
Creator or Sovereign Of the Universe.
Now if you do not mean this when you
use the name, use some other appropri-
ate term, such as Brahm, as your broth
ers in India do. You have no right to
pervert the meaning of words.
Now 1 will ask you a question. Do
you believe God to be an infinite, indi-
visible, immutable and eternal being2 I
will presume that you answer in the af-
firmative. Now then, can you divide in
divisibility? Can you add to or take
anything from infnitude? In other
words, is God made up of parts? Again,
we read, "And if it (the soul or part of
Cody fell by the transgression of Adam
(part of God, then God transgressed) it
was redeemed by Christ and placed in
the same relation as it existed prior to
the fall, &C. Is it not strange that
part of God should sin or transgress and
become alienated from the rest? Again
we read, THAT the fall of the soul (part
of God) means the dragging down of
these attributes to worldly level"
What constitutes man, Doctor bone,
and nerves, and muscles, or does mind,
intelligence, in a word, soul, come in the
idea of man? According to your theory,
God created the human body and placed
part of himself in that body, and that
that body dragged it down to worldly
level" and was lost, or, like an amputa-
ted limb, was cut off; thus the Allwise
Creator of the Universe was caught in
the cogs and wheels of his own machine! |!
How preposterous You say in one
place that the soul of man is a part of
God, in another place you say, chat the
soul is nothing more nor less than part
of the attribute of good" Don't you
know that the attribute of anything is
not the thing itself One thing can par
take of the same attribute as another
thing, without being part of it We at
tribute great many things to light, but
the attribute of light is not light in its
essence. That is a mystery to us.

ing questions: Does the soul of man ex-

took place in Columbus on last Sunday.

and about forty dollars were contributed
to the faithful couple.

1t would be curious thing to know
Just how much the Democrats mean by
their enthusiastic kilograms to Andrew
johnson, congratulating him upon his
election to the United States Senate, 1t
can hardly have slipped the memory of
these enthusiastic gentlemen that A. j.
has gone step farther in the doctrines of
reputation than most OF them have
dared to avoW openly. One of Johnsons
most coarse and violent utterances was
denunciation of the creditors of the Uni
ted States, and an expression of the opin-
ion that they would be we'll enough off if
they got the amount of the interest on
the debt, without ever receiving any part
of the principal. Is this to be the next
piece in the Democratic programme, or
can it be that they don't any of them
know what they are talking about, in in

Senator Thurman advances the theory
that the troubles in Louisiana are the
result of placing arms in the hands of a
semi-savage race. This theory will meet
hearty response in the breast of every
loyal American citizen. Who among US

government, in direct violation of the

The howl which still comes through
the Democratic press over the state of
affairs in Louisiana sounds familiar. We
first heard it when Abraham Lincoln
called for seventy-fve thousand men to
crush out the traitors who were trying to
ruin the Nation. The howl was changed
to joyous shout after the first Bull Run,
and again to howl after Atlanta, Nash
vile, Sheridan in the Valley" and
Grant at Appomattox. The same Grant,
and the same Sheridan, are fighting the
same enemies now, whom they thrashed
then, hence the same uproar in the Dem
ocratic camp. What does all this whin'

Andy johnson, the modern Moses, has
succeeded in swinging around the circle
again, to such an extent as to be elected
to the United States Senate, from his
native State. 1t appears that the friends
of A. j., in the North, remembering the
efficient services rendered to the coun-
try by him as Chief Magistrate, began
pouring in congratulatory messages upon
him, which are said to have rendered the
statesman "too full for utterance." The
