LETTER FROM MOUNT AIRY.

MOUNT AIRY, May 8, 1889.
LAMBRRTvILLE IN DISGRACE How
strange that people of this enlightened
age, enjoying all the rights and advan-
tages of civilization, free press, free
speech, free schools and free religion,
should condescend to be duped by humbug
Iniuns. The idea of allowing indecent
language, blackguard songs and old stale
yarns to be chawed over and sung on the
streets for whole week is, to say the
least few persimmons beyond our COM
prehension. Parents, We understand,
took their boys home from this nightly
torch-light panacea panorama, and ladies
as they passed, halted for moment and
then stole quietly away, just as they
would had they run across case of gen
uine smallpox, and we question very
much If there is a lady in town to-day
who will admit of being there at ALL
gentleman who wears specs, and a
citizen of Lambertville, told us that wo-
men have no business at such places
which we admit, aud offer as an appendix
that nobody else has either, who has any
regard for good morals, hard earnings and
common decency.
Well, it docs seem that some people
take great delight in being bamboozled
Not long since the great Shutdown
visited Lambertville and cast shadow of
gloom over the business outlook of our
home medicine men, and also over some
others to whom he became indebted.
Next on our list came Baker Wiliamson's
great " Chucktaw," and still they come
and all, no doubt, leave Lambertvllc
quite wealthy. Well, all right but In
our opinion this Indian medicine business
is simply delusion, and nothing in it,
and we feel confident that our educated
doctors are fully capable Of killing us off
as fast as necessity seems to require,
without the aid of the noble red man.

of this place, who has been confined by
sickness to her home the greater part of

her pains and troubles last Wednesday
night, by the angel of death. She was a
lady of a true Christian character, always
ready to speak words of love and COM
fort to those around her, and although
called apon to bear numbered Affections
as well as much disease and pain for
many years, was always cheerful and
happy, and waited patiently the sum mons
of death, which found her ready and
willing to leave this sinful earth to abide
with her Master in Heaven. The funeral
Of the deceased took place last Saturday
morning from the Presbyterian Church OF
this place.

Medical Humbugs.
Last week a man arrived in this city
who announced himself as an Indian
doctor. The Indian part of it consisted
principally in wearing long hair and a
broad-brimmed hat, He had with him
two men who sang songs and cracked
jokes, some of which, we are sorry to
hear, were not such as decent people care
to listen to. However, crowds were
drawn fgsm night to night, and during
the day the g Professor was called upon
by crowds of gullible people, who paid
him roundly for bis medicines and advice.
1t is said that he took away with him
several hundred dollars of money obtained
in this way.

Six INTERVIEWS WITH ROBERT G. IN
GERsoLL, on Six Sermons by the Rev.
DR.. T.De Witt Ia mage,D. D to which
is added TelmGgian Catechism, STEM
graphically reported by I. Newton
BAKER. Price. 81. Washington: G. P.
Farrell.
This work, just published, is a Sc
RES of interviews with the distin-
guished atheist on six sermons deliv-
cred against him by the Rev. Dewitt
Talmage, to which is added also a
Talmagian catechism. It is an ele-
CANT volume of 443 pages, printed
on good paper, and in large type.
To understand thoroughly the full
force of the arguments used by Mr..
Ingersoll, it is necessary for us to
read carefully the sermons Of Tai
mage, but as these are not at
Shand, we can only judge of
their merits, as they are presented
to us through the medium of his 0p-
ponent, and consequently we may
do the reverend gentleman, unin-
tentionally, an injustice.
Mr.. Talmage is essentially SEN
sational preacher, and in that line
has acquired his present fame, but
as soon as he comes into the field as
debater and thinker he plainly
s. oWs that he is entirely out of his
element, and that he is altogether
too light weight for his willy op
pODent, who has had so much ex-
peFience and has displayed so much
ability and skill, especially as a de.
batter.
Mr.. Ingersoll in this work has
not at all fallen behind any
of his previous efforts, so far as
brllllancy of diction, a keen sense
of the absurdities and Iudicrous as
sertiOns of his opponent are con.
conc rned. and also the MASTERY
skill which he displays in turning
them to his own advantage. He is
no doubt a good lawyer, but the du-
ties OF his profession have not been
a very good school for comprehend.
ing a work like the Bible, nor pre-
pairing him to understand the
philosophy of history. Such a man
looks upon every thing that he reads.
especially if he has a case to make
against What he is reading, with a
very critical eye, and will thus find !
great many inaccuracies and incon-
sistencies that are entirely wanting
to the less biased Judgement of a neu.
trail reader. The Bible, especially
the Old I, stament, written in yerS
early times when language was in 4
very primitive state, and almost
every express ion was tigurative. to
say no hing Of the inaccuracies and
interpretations that have crept IN
from time to time, cannot be taken
literally by the intelligent reader
and we believe that there are very
few Christians at the present time
who believe that it ought 10 be nm
| derstood literally.
Before Mr.. Talmage enters into
any scientific explanations, it wouId
be wall for him TO make himself
