From the New York Herald.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
The Washington correspondent of the
Herald was yesterday guilty of repeat
ing the story, which has recently OBJ
tanned such currency throughout the
whole land that ex-Speaker Blaine
was brought up in the Catholic church
but afterwards fell away from that re-
ligion, and, in the language of the po-
litical adversaries, is chargeable with
the infamy that attaches TO religious
apostacy, with the view to his own
personal advancement. Permit me to
contradict III the Herald these SLAM
derous accusations. AS an intimate
friend of members of the family, as
one who can speak with authority L
am enabled to deny as utterly un-
founded the various stories in circula-
tion to the effect that Mr. Blaine was
"bred a Catholic himself,n or drought
up in that church, or trained to a
Catholic teaching. The fact is that
while the parents and brothers and
sisters of Mr.. Blaine were and are
Catholics he himself never was one,
except to the extent of having received
as an infant the rite of baptism in that
church, and his early education and
training We're all in Protestant institu-
tions and amid Protestant surround
ings.
A mans religion in this free country
is his own business. 1t may be one
thing to accuse man of Catholicism,
but quite another thing to seek to blur
( his personal character with the in
| fanny which apostasy therefrom would
naturally imply. Respectfully,
j. McC.
