LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

—_-+—.—_>----

That Reply of “Secular Thought.”

Srx,— I du not wish to make your col- umns a medium of religious controversy. However, as you have noticed in your Lo- cals a long reply in the journal edited by Mr. Charles Watts to my letter recently published in Tue Examrver, will you kind- ly print a note in reference to said reply. As I said formerly, | do not write for the purpose of controversy, but simply to indi- cate the true nature of secularism; and that only in behalf of such honest doubters as are earnestyl by desiring to know the truth, whether it lies in Christianity or in some negative system. If it should be thought there are a sufficient number of such who ‘* doubt in order that they may believe,” to justify a public discussion of any points in secularism that are at variance with Christianity, I shall be only too happy to discuss such questions with any one who asks them either in your paper, or any other. It must be perfectly evident to every one who considers, that a platform discussion, such as was sought by Mr. Watts in the maritime cities, could not be a fair way of conduucting such a controversy. Nothing is easier for a ready and plausible speaker than to hide real issues under a cover of sophistry, or wit, and so »'4a the approval of an audience which does not dis- criminate. For instance, three years ago, in St. John, Mr. Watts carried the audience against his opponent by the merest subter- fuge, covering him with ridicule because, as a defender of Christianity, he was not able to quote for Mr. Watts, from Num- bers, the “‘ fourth commandment.” No- thing could be fairerthan the challenge given by the editor of the Halifax Hvening Mail, which, although the gentleman challenged acknowledged in Secular Thought the com- plete fairness of its terms, he has declined to meet under those exact terms.

The manner in which Secular Thought has reviewed and twisted my letter pub- lished in THe ExaMInex speaks poorly for the morality of Secularism. Itis held up as an exhibition of il!-breeding and dis- courtesy. This certainly does not appear in the writer's quotations ; he theretore leaves the readers of his journal to con- clude that part or parts of the letter not quoted were such. Those who read my article know that it indicated anything but ‘* veiled sneers ” or *‘arrogant domination.” It plainly professed not to be written, as in discussion with Secularists, but as a re- ply to the overtures of the agent of Mr. Watts in Charlottetown. The whole of the quotation in Secwar Thought is dragged out of its connection, which was concerned simply in showing that the liberality of thought to which the agent was striving in his advertisements to constrain the people of Charlottetown was a “ sick- ly sentimentality.” This, I am ready at any. time to prove, and that with the true courtesy of Christianity. Christ was not a true gentleman, according to Mr. Watts, because he called things by theirown names. The reviewer says again that ‘‘a peculiar, not to say vicious feature ‘‘is my implied slur upon my opponent's character.” No perversion could be worse than this. There is only one name by which to call it. What I said wasthe direct oppc site,! as everyone who perused the letter will remember. That an expression used by me in another part of the article in a totally different connection, is ruthlessly brought in to serve this fair opponent's purpose. When I said the commission of Christian workers is to rescue bad hearts, and that this Secularism does not pretend to do, how is it possible by any process of thought, except one of utter prevarication, to characterize that statement as a slur upon my opponent's character, and thus to hold this up .as an example of Christian love? Secular Thought also ob- jects to my epitome of the tenets of Secularism. This is quite naturatfor the advocates of the system know no Master. Their doctrines are nebulous and never Therefore if an op- ponent quotes, as in THe ExamIner’s article, from a foremost exponent of un- belief and a leader in this school, nothing is easier for Mr. Watts than to turn round and say, ‘‘ You are ignorant of the tenets of Secularism ; we do not believe that at all. What then is Secularism? I do not ask that it be judged by the attitude in fairness and truthfulness of this one article in the Toronto organ. There may be in it something better. But let it be carefully noted by those who are honestly seeking the truth, that the professed cul- ture, the morality, the true liberty of thought and of expression, the amenities ot civilized life, and the ex- altation of every Christian man, that these things of which secular lecturers boast as if their system had created them, are the product of Christianity. : | Secularism, then, is guilty of partaking, without gratitude, in the triumphs of the Cross, and then of turning itself about in blasphemy against the Christ and His Holy Spirit, because their sanctions and convic- tions are opposed to the pride of intellect, and the inherent badness of the human

heart.

Let me ask Secular Thought, in conchi-

eae 1 MR A AN

Re A Ee ee

sion, If Christ is, as the editor says, so worthy to be praised, why are His disciples, when they use the language of the Master in reference to the heart, its sin and un- belief, to be characterized in the terms of hatred and contempt which this journal of free thought heaps upon the defenders of Christianity ?

And allow me to remind any who may be inclined :v resent the orthodox description of the unbelieving heart as ** bad,” that all the terrible indictments of and scathing words concerning the evil heart of uabelief recorded by the faithful reporter, St. John in chap. v-x:x, were uttered by Him whuse character, as to its nobility, truthfulness and gentleness the most cultured of un- believing writers have emulated one an- other in praising.

There is nothing new in Secularism. Its assaults have been repelled a thousand times. Unbelief is ever returning, the old form professing itself to be something new snd startling because it carries some slight fresh conceit. Christianity fears not the light. She walks and marches on in it, and is the child of it.

A very unique marriage was celebrated in ‘Squire Hauser’s office yesterday’ after- noon, the ’Squire office officiating, says the Cincinnatia Lnguirer. The bride was Miss Jessie Troeger, who lives at the corner of Main Street and MeMicken Avenue. She obtained some celebrity two years ago jby leading a strike of the waitresses in Rock- well’s restaurant. She is 20 years old. The groom was Chas. K. Adams, better known tn the dime museum world as the Armless Wonder. He was born without those useful members of the body, and in lieu of a better and more profitable means of livelihood hired himself out to-dime museums. Adams is now about 30 years of age, and barring the lack of arms, is a fine specimen of phy- sical beauty.

The absence of arms is little felt by the Wonder, however, tor he has become very expert with his toes and mouth. He can thread a needle and write a neat letter with the former, while with the latter he paints dainty little pictures, decorates chinaware, etc., holding the brush between his teeth.

When the couple entered the ‘Squire's office yesterday and said they wanted to be united in wedlock that official was per- plexed for a while.

** How can you join hands!” he asked, blandly, pointing to Adams.

**Oh that is easy enough,” said the pretty bride, who stood fully three heads shorter than the groom, and she reached up and grasped the stump of his undeveloped left arm with her right hand.

‘* See,” she said, as she stood smilingly on her tiptoes.

‘**But the ring. How can he put the mar- riage ring on your finger /”

‘* In this way,” said Adama, aud the as- tonished officials in the ‘Squire’s cuurt were thunderstruck to see the circlet of gold betwe:n the armless man’s teeth. Bending his head he deftly slipped it over the girl’s finger.

Satistied that the couple understood their business the Squire wént ahead and per- formed the ceremony.

After being made man and wife Adams sat down, and slipping the shoe off his right foot, disclosing a stocking with the front of the foot cut off, he reached into his vest pocket with his toes and brought out a roll of bills. Selecting a five dollar note, he tendered it as fee, and, putting on his shoe, went away, his little wife sticking close to him.

Corsets and economy diminish the waste.

**Mamma, if you had three twins would you call them troublets?” ‘‘Yes, dear, | think I would.”

Miss de Sinythe—‘‘l wonder why these mosquitoes never come to the hotel ?” Cholly—‘-They can’t afford it.”

He—Come, now, let’s kiss and make up. She—No, sir, I won't. He—Well, let's kiss, anyhow.

“Will you marry me, Bridget ?” asked a widower of a year of his cook. “How many afternoons a week out kin I have, sorr,” ahe asked in reply.

Applicant for clerkship—Are there any vacancies here? Eniployer (gazes mutely but eloquently around at the assembled clerks)—We have no room for any more at present. Call again,
