He has not thought properly of the

have allowed at least an acre for lawn

hot and weary feet, and soothing to
weak eyes.

The Shortcomings OF Bishop Tuttle's
Sermons.

1t is always more pleasant to praise
than to censure, and We are sure that
the good people of Ironton (if there be
good people in this town will accept
our animadversions upon the dis
courses in question in the same spirit
as they are written: in sorrow rather
than anger; in correction, not unmean-
ing denunciation. The sermons were
able, concise, and logical, but they APP
pealed to the love of God for his child
rem: appealed to the creatures sense of
duty toward the Creator; asserted that
ii is more Godlike to do right for the
sake of right. than to shun evil be-
cause of a yawning pit of eternal fire
and birthstone. Then. again, there
was no hurrah in the sermons-uo ap-
peal to the selfish fears of the multi
tude. Now, selfishness in humanity is
a powerful lever, and, in the opinion of
an outsider, the preacher OF to-day who
refuses its aid is indeed blind as to pos
sible results. Bnt the most serious
criticism we feel impelled to infiict up
on the good Bishop is in reference to
great and culpable omissions that form
the gap between him and the intelli-
gent, self-appreciative people of this
community. To make tough beef
steak juicy and tender. there is nothing
so efficacious as a good beating-pum-
melting, so to speak. The tough sinner
needs very much the same treatment,
metaphorically speaking. Bishop Tut
tie does not seem to recognise this
truism. He has visited this communi-
ty at least six times in as many years.
knows many of our people intimately.
and yet he has never. in any sermon,
reverted to the oft-asserted fact that
our people are hard-hearted, sin-be-
grimed, stiff-necked. case-hardened.
ETC., etc.-in fact, that but one other
locality in the State wallows in as grea.
sinfulness and moral turpitude. Lei
The Bishop amend this fault-cease
preaching love and loving duty-sock
it to the alleged ..sinner" world with
out end-appeal to anything except
reason and sense of right. Let him
shake off his timidity of offense and do
these things. and he will walk through
life a great man in all the accepted es-

lit appears, from the statement OF
many of my friends, that you read q

have been written by woman, and it
further appears that there is nice set

church are famous, who have reported
that myself and some three or four
other gentlemen are the authors of said
letter. So far as am concerned, j
have been abused and maligned so
often that pay no attention to their
abuse, but when these irreligious sea n
dat-naongers and gossipers attempt to
connect my friends with me in such
disreputable action or scheme. it is
time for me to kick and charge false
hood and hypocrisy upon these social

attention to the reading of their bible,
would know in what light or degree of
Christianity they are held. Besides.
