MORE HOT WATER FOR TALMAGE.

SHARP LETTER FROM OLIVER JOhN5ON'
| Tie Keu. L. DEWITT TALMAGE u. ID.
| SIR: sec by The TRTBUyE's report of your trial
now in progress before the Brooklyn Presbytery,
that letter of yours to Mr. L. Remington, dated
May II, 1875, and marked private" was intro
duced in evidence on Tuesday. In that letter you
speak of Oliver Johnson the Spritualist, free
| lover, Frothing nghamite and infdel."
| Each one of these epithets, so fppactly applied
| by YOU TO me. conveys q fasehOod. Whlle 1t is
true that believe in spirit manfcstatons-such as
were made to Paul on his way to Damascus, to
Peter in his vision the housetOp and in scores of
other instances recorded in both sacred and secular
history, and that such manifestations occur now as
well as in former times-l am not a "spiritualist
according to the usual meaning of that word,
which, as popularity understood, covers vagaries
and practices as repulsive 10 me rs they be TO
any one.
This however, is a comparatively small matter
but when you call me frce-lover" yOu are guilty
of a slander as baseless and foul uttered
by man, and for which, if you not utterly lost
to shame, you should humble yourself before God,
and make me rcparation as public rs the charge has
now become, To those who know NE no cOntradc-
ton Of slander so Infamous is necessary; but my
name as journalist is familiar to thousands who
are not personally acquainted with me- and for their
sakes cannot consent to be silent under such an
aspersion.
What you mean by a" Frothinghamite do not
know, but beg to assure you that am not the
"ite " of any man. | am both happy and proud to
reckon Mr. rockingham among my cherished
