DR. J. W. ROGERs, weIl-knOwn to oUl
citizens as the first rector and founder q
st. Lazarus (Episcopsl) church, but
who, as Episcop would say, de,
fected to Catholicism, recently, ia con.
nection with Father Fitzpatrick, 2
Mr.. Barry, and other memteIs OF
bis church, residing in Indianapolis,
established paper known Sc the Cen,
trGl Catholic. We Eeed hardly cay tC
the people of Memphis that the pspsI
was edited with ability, and that in q
short time il took high rank among The
organs Of Cstholicity. An ardent ami
devoted son Of the church, and q thor
oUgbly int lligent believer in all its dog
mas, and Withsl q gentleman Of culture
and the best religious training, he e.
poused the cause OF Rome with gu el-
eTgy and the liberal expenditure
OF brilliant talents that won for him and
his paper an assured place in the sf
fections Of a wide and increasing cTcle
Of Iesders. In short it was a success.
But internal jeslOusies would not per
NIT that TO remain which DR.. Rogers
had so thoroughly constructed. His
presence and position was an eye-sore tC
those who could not cope with him in
tellectuaily, aud upon returning G to In
dianapolis from visit to q sick brother,
he found dismissal from the editorial
chair awaiting him. Gu. OF this dis
misssl grew an acrimonious correspond
ence that has brought scandal to The
church and pref. 10 no one. We hsd
hOIei to lay this before our
readers, but the pressure oi
our advertising friends prevents,
hence this recitsl OF The lscts which il
contains. AS to DR.. Rogers, it affords
us pleasure to Ieiserate OF him what We
said when he read and published his re-
cantation Of the doctrines Of the Episco-
pal church, that be bore an VI blemished
and unsullied character, and was looked
upon as one Cf the attest ministers oi
that church in Tennessee. And 50 far
as we have been able to follow him since
be left Memphis, he hiss iD no wise for,
feited that good opinion. We regret this
controversy for the sake Of religion, as
well "a on account OF our friend.

Rev. Mr. Snyder, of Pittsburg, preach
ed last Sunday against the sinfulness Of
of oveTdressing and improper dressing.
"How many christians he asked,
'spend az hour every Sunday morning
upon their knees in dsvotions prepsfs-
tory to service? Not very many, surely.
And yet how many there are who spend
much longer time than this every Sun
day morning on their feet before the
glass ia getung ready for church-there
ls so much to be done with loops, and
folds, and ribbons, and pull :" The
Tebuke wss meTited to some extent: and
yet the preacher was somewhat unress-
onable. Could he naturally expect q
Christian woman to get on her knees
with pull-back on? The proposition is
absurd.
