Brooklyn Tabernacle Row.
| The Herald says: The row in the Brook
| wv, To al hro dire CONSEQUENCES.
The Trustees have resigned in body, and
one of them has written polite but blood
curdling letter to the energetic pastor Mr.,
Talmadge. In this epistle he states: with
your pious mans arsenical candor Tai
madge has been so unveraclous regarding
certain vexed questions that he can no
longer have confidence in Talmadge's deal
ing with eternal veritics."
The row, oddly enough, grows out OF a
question of harmony. Mr.. Morgan, who
plays the organ, was in the debate. Some
said the wild worldly music which resound
ed through the Tabernacle on certain Sun
day evenings was not sent by the splrl,
working in Morgan. The luckless organis
was dismissed, but it is said got back by
pleading it was the spirit of Talmadge tha
run away with his fingers and caused sucl
scandal This has never been made public
