A Gard From Rev. MIR. Dryden.
WHEELING, April 80


To The Editor Of The RCgiSa:
SIR:--In your columns OF the Goth you
have given an impartial account Of
the discussion that took place at the
REGISTER office on the afternoon Of the
10Th, between Rev. Father McElligott and
myself. In my last article, which up.
peared in your paper on the 18th, / ex-
tended to Mr.. NICE. the following invita-.
ton: "Aud now in conclusion I ask Rev.
McEligott and all others interested In this
suhiect to meet me at the REGISTER Office
to morrow between . and o'clock D. M. and
| shall be glad TO verify the quotations
have nEde from the works of Justin, Tel
tullian, Cyril, Eusebius, Oigen, Celia ius,
Dupin and others" Rev. McElligott, ac-
companied by Rev. Bouilou and Others,
met and the examination was begun. We
first examined the two quotations from ST.
Justin, ard it WAS found that my first
quotation from this father WAS correct and
agreed with the creek text of Rev. Nee
the SECOND quotation, which was taken
from the Latin text used by
DR.. Elliott, did not agree with the
Greek text Of Rev. McElligott. When We
reached this point in the examination
then opened my hooks TO examine the
other authors which had cited and which
| promised to verify, viz: Tertulian,
Cyril, Eusebius, Orlgen, Gelssius, Du
Pin and others. But Rev Mr.. McElligott
declined further investigation ard he,
accompanied by Rev. Boutlou and others
of his church, gathered up their hats and
coats Ind left me standing before the
counter with my books open before me.
And | then aud there called public atten-
ton to the fIct that they were leaving the
house when the investigation had only be
gun. There WAS an article in your paper
of the Goth written by Rev. BoutlOu, and
in referring 10 it | desire Ia say two
things. First, it IL an unfair statement OF
the case, and second / do not recognize
Rev. Boutlou in this controversy. The
controversy ia between Rev. McElligott
and myself. am waiting for that gentle.
man to reply to my last article, and if he
does not answer soon then the public will
hear from me again.

DISCORD.
A WILD RUYOR THAT SoNB REPUBLICANS
ARE UNHAPPY.
TIE Knights With The Waving Planes SAID 70 b
Torn BY DisseISons Within Their
Organization.

The agonizing rumor has been pre-
valiant for some days that there is weep
ing and crashing Of teeth among the
membership of the crack Republican
organization Of the town-the Piumed
Knights. The story goes that at meeting
he'd early in the week the proceedings
we're characterized by painful amount OF
discord, and that the session, when
wss protracted until after II o'clock,
actually broke up in a row, tfat
the Ulcers of the knights resigned, and
that the organization is now without any
distinct head AID is drifting about upon
the political ocean with excellent chances
of going to tho bottom unless some means
is speedily found Of stopping the leak and
once more. putting the craft in sailing
trim.
The matter of the alleged rumpus was
mentioned to Republican brother yester-
day, and he said:
"Well, zee; there has been some I'M
ples,autnes., but suppose things will lie
patched up in little while. A campaign
year is had time TO fight among ourselves;
but at tina same time, row Is always IN
order, if there he proyOcation enough.
What wss the proyocauon? Well, to re
frank, the trouble has been brewing for
some time, and grows ont OF the persist
emit endeayors of the Mtdiigenoer crowd to
ruin everything they can not rule.
don't care about going into the details OF
the matter, but We did have q lively |
time. and / guess we will have
TO elect some new officers before We embark
upon the active work of the campaign. Oh .
yes, used to belong TO the Lincoln Club,
but don't now. There is little crowd
of exclusive, caId-p'aying old cronies wEo
seemed to think they were entitled to tie
entire property of the organization to the
exclusion of every one else not OF Their
pai licnlar set, aud people have to either
give them full swing or move out l went
out. The usefulness OF the Organize
ton las been very seriously impaired, 81 d
this little iuSs Of the other night has made
come people very tired. If this wasn't
year, I'll bet banana the thing
would not live through the summer.
You're going to pint something about
this, suppose Well. of course thsre'll be
a howl of no sUch thing, and 40 on, but
it's straight, all the same. It's simply
been kept quiet"

A Gard from Bishop Ksir.

MARIINsBURG, W. VA, April 19, 1888.
To the Editor Of The Register:
SII:-I LETT home Tuesday morning,
having accepted an invitation to attend q
meeting to be held at Hot Springs, N. C.,
in the interests of Southern immigration.
Stopping off at this point on q visit to ~
old friend, had my attention called to an
article published in yesterdays REGISTER
by minister in charge OF one Of the Meth
odist churches of your city. Now / ask
permission to correct one of his many mis-
statements.
Whilst I try to the best ofmy limi ed
abilities to expound and defend ths doc.
trines of my own church, / have never, un-
less indirectly and by inference, made any
attacks on Professionalism or soy Of its
churches or doctrines. 10 many instances
which need not be cited, their teaching
and ours are contradictory;-ifwe are rigb' I,
they are wrong, and rice rerSa. i now ap.
peal to the files of the news
papers of your city, for proof Of
the charge implied in the emarks Of that
very courteous Christian gentleman. The
record will show that in every controversy
that l have had through the medium Of
the press, have been, not the asssilant,
but the sssailed.
How often have not Protestant minis
ters of our city preached and published
sermons in defense of their peculiar tenets?
Unless they directly asssiled our church /
was never found rushing into print to ex-
pose any points which may have deemed
vulnerable 10 the positions they were de-
Tending.
Let the record be produced of all the
newspaper controversies have had on re.
ligious topics in the past twelve or tbir-
teen years, and it will be shown that in
every single instance l have been acting
on the defensive reply log to letters sd-
dressed to me.
Let these facts be placed side by side
with that Rev. Gentleman's remarks, and
your readers may draw their own in
ference. JOHN J. KAHN.
Bishop Of Wheeling.

To he Editor Of The Register.
SIR: By invitation, was present at the
meeting held at the REGISTER office on
Thursday at 2r. m, to decide on the cor
rectness Of eertsin quotations made by
Rev. n. F. Dryden. Those examined in
the Greek and Latin were from Justin. In
one case, the translation given by Rev. D,
was not correct. The original Greek did
not warrant Mr.. DIS rendering. In an
other instance, Rev. D.. when protesting
10 give Justin's teaching in regard to the
Eucharist, gave an incomplete quotation,
stopping just at the words Of Justin, which
taught the doctrine of the Catholic Church.
The translation Of the incomplete quota
ton from which Mr.. Dryden cited, was
accurate. REV. W. ULFERT.
