GOOD
The ADVANCE finds so little to CON-
mend III Orthodox preachers and
churches, that when We do find any
thin. zeal good. we make haste to
write it down and print it. Of course,
we find much t" commend in preachers
and church members rs nlen and tcomen,
aside from their orthodox bigotry and
tto.nfuolery, and We speak Of them now
in their ridiculous attitude Vt church
members aud propagat"rs Of Fl ror.
Well, the Case We refer to now is
that of the Methodist cl'urcl. ut Nor
wich. Conn, presided over by ole Rev.
Tinker. Recently the Mountain
Evangelist" Rev. Geo. o. Barnes.
h.ld i ''revival' there and lie was so
liberal, so hard on old orthodoxy and
Theology, that Pastor Tinker prefaccd
one of his sermons with lisavowal. of
the views and i reputation Of them III
the name Of his pulpit. The Evangel-
ist rose and said lie was willing to
leave the church and secure i hall and
the sense Of the audience WAS taken Ivy
y 'rising vote. Every man arose and
sustained the leter,niox Evangelist
and left the Rev. Tinker without any
support.
So We say ''good'' for ole sensible
and growing Methodist church among
80 many big ,t~d and benisl,t<d e,.rs.
TIE Rev. Mr.. Barnes comes North to
overthrow the gluolny theology which
prevails IN old witch burning and l,erse.
cutting New England. lie says the
gospel Of the North is the ''devil's COS.
pei. invented by the prince Ut liars. u
-. ., Mr.. barnes. Why, you're as
hard hs the ADVANCE, whicl, has said
that same il, substance ever so many
times. Why. the wicked ADVANCE
l,:Is often declared that the orthodox
churches are the el,rlmies Of Christ u
gospel. and are opposing it. instead Of
pr"l.,gali ing it as they pretend. They
ARE Ii lighting the ''Sririt'' aud SHINING
against the Holy Chest, If there is any
meaning ut all in what Christ said
about that fatal sin which is not to Ike
forgiven.
Here is another specimen Of Mr..
Barnes views:
''Do you think that God sits on His
EiYi, throne and looking down on the
