Reno had recrossed and reached the
hill he was not attacked. While thus
lying idle the sound of a heavy battle
was heard in his front-but there was
no movement of relief. 1t was only af-
ter this heavy firing ceased and there
seemed to be no reason to apprehend
that the coast was clearthat an advance
was ordered.
Now, the fact that the Indians COM
menced running when Reno crossed the
river; and the further fact that as soon
as Reno recrossed they all fell upon
Custer, prove That the Indians were not
strong enough-or at least they appear
ed to think soto light Reno and Gus
ter at the same time. This shows that
Custer's plan was a good one, and that
had it been carried out the Indians, in
all probability, would have been de-
feated. In short, the testimony thus
far has relieved Custer most complete
ly of the charges of rashness in over
marching his command and making the
attack rhen he did, and of poor judg-
ment in making it as he did. The
Times does not believe that there is any
evidence going to show cowardice on
the part on Reno. That he acted as he
did must be explained by some other
reason. 1t may have been a misappre-
henson of the situation, or bad judg-
ment, or jealousy of the renown of
Custer.

THAT SQuNSe Look

MEssRs. EDIToRs:-Whil. it is not
my purpose To create controversy, ]
do wish to reply to Rev. c. NJ. Pcgg' )
discourse OF Sunday evening, as pull
iished IN your columns yesterday,
"Heresy." 1t is useless to quote all
that Mr. T. has said, suffice tosay that
because one has been loyal to the word
of God, and has not refused TO walk in
the light, or made compromise with
him tor the sake of salary, or POPULAR
ty, he is branded with heresy and COM
pared to the de,qi, with horns and hoof
and termed by our brother =. a. q
Christian act. ''Here It came in tn.
person Of Methodist Minister, OF pro-
iessed loyalty to Methodism, man
who was lifted from want to circum-
stances Of comfort, &c"
"Heresy." When church is found
ed on the immutable word of God, and
"A IL scripture given by inspiration OF
God, aud 20 scripture of any private
Interpretation. Why then should a
man be brand. as hereto who preach
-s tn. plain, literal, unadulterated word
of God, and reject not one text, neither
adds to, nor take from. Can there be-
any error then in the fundamental doc
trine OF such a church, under such cir
cumstances' Bro. p. have you not
read the words Of insprati.n. Yea
and all that will live Godly in Christ
Jesus shall suffer persecution. Week
pect it. We have no desire to make any
compromise with sin, in order to avoid
it. We have the promise ofdeliveranoe.
We have the BLESSED Hope" There
are set Of men spoken Of in (Phil. 3,
l9) who had much taste for pies, plum
puddings, cakes, beef and bread. Yea,
whose God was their belly" and
there are such in these days too.
call your attention TO that port ion
of scripture recorded in e. Tim. 81
Please read the whole chapter. Also
(Mat. 54: 4s) and you will see, that
there are some who are. saying "Oh, the
Lord is not coming in our day: Who
is that! Not the Atheist, Not the man
professor OF the religion of Jesus, but
that "Wicked servant shall say in his
heart, My Lord delayeth his coming.
And shall begin to smite his fellow ser
want and to eat and drink, &C. The
Lord OF that servant shall come on a
day when he looketh not for him, and
in an hour when he is not aware Of,
and shall cut him asunder, and appoint
his portion with the hypocrites, there
shallbe weeping and snashing Of teeth.
(Jesus, Mat. 24.)
All, Bro p, be careful; you are not
looking for your Lord, you are not
aware that this might be the hour of
his personal coming and presence. Be-
ware, you are shifting your tellow-ser-
want, when you class him with Satan,
and when you spurn the plain teach
ing of Jesus and his Apostles. Yea all
are smiting who call his fellow servant
hard names. Beware, say, lest he
come in an hour when you think not,
and hence the consequences.
