T'o the Edutor of The Chicago Tribune : Cricago, March 17.—Mr. Aoderson, in hig article under dete Feb. 24, says: * Mr. Bailoy gives us this bit of history, which I would like to gee him prove: * From Jerusalem the Church going east into Armenis, south into Abyssinis, and west into Italy, used the Sabbath forits worship day.’” Tno Rev. Clandius Buchanan in his * Chria- tinn Rosoerches in Asis,” p. 136, says: **The Armenians in Hindostan &ro our own subjects. They acknowledge our Government in Indis, as they do that of tho Suphi in_Persin ; and they are entitled to our regard. Theyhave preserved the Bible in its purity ; and their doctrines aro, a8 far as the author knows, the doctrines of the Diblo. Besides, they maintain the solemn ob- servance of Christian worship throughout our Empire oa the sevouth doy, aad they have s many spires pointing to heaven among the Hin- doos a8 we oursalves.” Tho Rev. Lyman Coleman, in his * Ancient Christianity Exemplified,” says: *There are at least fourteen great foast dayd in tho course of the year, on which all ordinary labor is suspend- ed. and the day 18_observed more strictly than tho Sabbath.” Yeates, in his ‘*‘Last India Church History,” juforms us that Baturday amongat them 18 3 featival day agreesble to the anciet practice of the Church.

Tho Sabbath das we reckon far, far abovo the others.” Grant, in his * Bistory of the Nestoriaug,” says: “The Sabbath is regarded with a sacredness among the mountain tnibes which I have seen among 10 other Christians in the Enst.” Sarauel Gobat, in his jourasl of three years’ 251 and 253 Wabash-av., sanionce, o Kbjeinis, informs te_ tiat . “bristisnity was intrcducod into Abyssinia NEAR_JACKSON-ST. about the yerr 3830, when _Athan- asius was patrisrch of Alexandra. The Mobaw- medans of Arabia in the seventh century mado 2n irruption into Egspt, and neazly crushed the chureh there.

In tho reventeenth contury the Jes- uits, under the patronage of Portugal, made another desperate effort to subjugate her to tho Canrch of Rome.

This caused the war to rage anew with voica and sword, a8 it sought to coutrol them in their re- ligious faith.” ‘The result a8 described_by Mr. Gobat was: ‘**This ushaopy war continued to rage with unabated fury, wrembling i the bal- ance between alternate successcs and revorses, urtil the Emperor felt the imperioua necessity, in consideration of the intorests of his throue, and the tranquitlity of his subjects, of roguest- ing the patrisrch to negotiate a treaty between the Pope and his Royal Highness, in which it saould bo stiputated tliat the Abyasinian Church might retain their ancient liturgr, celebrate the seme festival dsys tbat they praviously ob- gerved, and enjoy the privilege of hallowing not less the Jewish Sabbath than the Lord’s Day in agreement with their uniform practico previous to tho wtroduction’ of the Catholic faith.” .

The seventh-day Sabbath, wad . _solemnized by Christ, the Apostles. and rimitive Christians till the Laodicean Council did, in 3 manner, quite sbolish the observa- tion of it. . . . 'The Council of Laodices (A. D. S64) first eottled the observation of the Lord's day. and prohibited the kespiog tho Jew- isn Sabbath npder an ansthema.” Prof. Stuart in appendix to Gurney's Histor eto., of the Sabbath, pages 115, 116, says: **The practice of it (keepiog the Sabbath) was contioued by Coretians who were jealous for the honor of tha Mosaic Iaw, and fioally becamo, 83 we hsvoseen, predominant throughons Chuist- endom. It was supposod at length thattbe fourth commandment did require tho observance of the Seventh-dry Sabbath (not merely a sov- enth portion of time), and, resoning s Chris- tians of tho prosent day aro wont to do, viz: Thac all which belonged to the Ten Command- ments was immutable aod perpetusl, the churches .in general came gradnally to re- gard the seventh-usy Ssbbath as altogather sscred.” This refers to a period betwaen Con- stantinc’s edict A, D. 321, and tho Council of I‘éx'ff“{?hsfl' ‘illiam Domville says, **8ix Toxts,” page 241: *Centuries of the Christian era puzgd awsy before the Sunday was obgerved by the Chrigtian Church as a Sabbath. History does Dot farmish s with a siogle proof or indication that it Was at any time 8o obeorved previous to the sabbatical edict of Constantine in A, D. 821" Willism Truiese, D. D., in Morality of the Fourth Commandment,” p. 2, says: * Yet for some hundred years in the primitive Church, not the Lord's Day only, but the seventh doy also was religiously observed not by Ebion and Corinthus only, but by pious Christians also, a5 Daronins writéth, and Gomarus confesseth and Rivent also.” Edward Broowood. Professor in Gresham College in * a learned treatise of the Sabbath,” says : ** And especially because it is cortsn (and Lttle do you know of the ancient condition of the Church, if you know it not), that tho ancient Sabbath did remain and was observed (together with the celebration of the Lord’s Dey) by tho Chriatians of the East Church, above 300 vears after our Savior’s desth.” Ho farther says: “It is commonly believed that the Jewish Sabbath was changed inio the Lord's Day by Christian Emperors, and thoy know little who do not know that the -sucient Sabbath did re- main and was observed by the Eastera churches 300 years after our Savior's passion.” Tiio apostasy that began under Debius in 251, on the basis of baptismal salvation, infant bap- tism, and the beirarchy, culminated in 312 inthe full establishment of the Church of Rome. under the Empezor Constantine, by the union of the Charch and Stato. From thal time the truo aud false church became distinct, Nine venrs after this Reparation, in Alarch 7, A. D. 321, Constantine’s cdict making tho heathen “enerablo day of the sun” the Sabbath of the Empire, was issued. Heathenism was not sappressed in the Empire uotil A. D. 390, sixty-nine years after the Sunday odict, snd_fifcy-threo years after Constantine’s death. The Council_of Laodicea, in 364, made the Sabbath of the Empire tho Sabbath of the Church. Having mow answered Abel Anderson’s call for proof of my assertion ‘‘that from Jernsalem the Church going east into Armenia, south into Abyssinia, and west 1nto Italy, used the Sabbath for its worship-day,” I will now again call upon bim to make good his assertion 1n his articie under date of Feb.10: ¢ What Mr. B. gives as history in last Sunday's TRIBUNE must be someshing manufactured for the occasion, for it comes in conflict with the New Testsment and tho Church fathers, who Gught to bo authority on this subject.” Several of my critics seem not_to understand the differcnco betweon the national and cere- monial Sabbatha of the Jewa and God's holy day.

Scores of times daring the two years past I bave declarod my belief in Mr. Beecher's innocence of crime, and I never yet have expressed the be- lief that he 18 guilts. But 1 am bronght now into a state of ttor porplexity, when I can only esy: * God defend the right.” Great multi- tudes of persons stand in that position to-day, and say that this horrible clond must be dis- sipated. But other maltitudes do not stop there. It 18 most unfortunate that the Council, in their own personal and sympathetic eatis- faction, so swangely failed to comprehond Mr. Beocher's really dresdful position be- fore the community. They poiot back to an investigation of 187%, and wholly forget that the world moves; and that, if that in- vestigation were then all that thoy believe, a new and extreme exigency bas come. Bince that time the tide of opinion has, for some rea- son, been setting steadily and solemnly against Mr. Beecher, till his defenders now seem to be almost as fow a8 his accusers then. Withina eek » widely-zequainted and loading minister of another great denomination said to me that, 8o far as he know, not mors than onein ten of his brother ministers believed XIr. Beecher in- nocent, and they were growing silent. A Christian lawyer of still another great com- munion said to me, that **not more than one in five of his acquaintances held that opinion.” An intolligent newspaper roporter said : ** Not onein ten.” I hear keon men of tho world in railway cars and elsewhere, professed admirers of his genius and influence, express the most andonbting opinion of his deliberate perjury. addiog that it was the only course left for him. A complete and searching investigation by a body above all possible suepicion of weakness or bias is no concession to the foolish, bat an imperativo necesgity for the clear-headed and the good. It ought t5 be most eagerly caveted by Mr. Beecher and his friends, if he be, indeed. the innoceot man that we hope. And if this almost universal domand of the church and the world pass un- heeded it now requires no gift of prophecy to foreace that when the passions and partisanships of the hour shall hava pasaed away sad the voice of time shall be heard 3r. Beccher’s name will be congigued to o fate as much sadder as his past career has boen brighter than othor men's. It must be remembered, too, thas he is oot merely on tho defensive. He Las publicly ut~ tered tho gravest accusations against M. Bowen and Mrs. Moulton, and nsed expressions coa- cerning his brethren aud former iriends in the ministry which it is needless here to repeat. Let him make good or retiact his declarations. No wmall circle of his friends can stand hero be- tween him and the great ¢anse of truth sod ripht. The Church at large have a voice in this matter. He will be. tried and acquitted by o court wisoly sclected and dafiniw‘lia ‘empowored, or-he will be inevitably condemned by the groat mass of men outside of Plymouth Church. . . . The Council bave, unfortunately, proposed an oxtraordinary and wholly un-Congregational way, when & perfectly Congregational method Iny before thom. . . . It 8 in danger of béing regarded as but a one-sided affair; & doing of tho Piymouth Church at tho fourth remove— by & Committoe appointed by aoother Commit- tee appointed by an ex-parte Council called by that church; and that, t0o, whon a part of the Appoioting ‘Committce is rightly or wrongls, supposed to be strozgly partiéan. . . . ‘A very gravo objection 18 that the Commiesion i wholly passive; is to do nothing: 18 uot even to be qrganized, unless some outaide party shall make Charges—charges which must psss s pre- Jiminary ordeal before they will evea be consid- ered. This looksalmost like a get purpose to Kill the whole movement. Probably none of the perzons having knowledge of the case wish to reopen it #od make charges. It has, indeed, come to my knowledge—withont seeking, but on apparently good authority—that two most im- portant witneuses will not go before any body of investigators unless a pgsitive moral pressure compels them to do 80. No doubt thia is true of others. Icoosider tnis provision a fatal one. whether intonded or not. A weil-constituted Council could and would apply that pressure ; and, whatever may be said against ita power to gecure testimony, it would, io the present state of public_eentimoat, briog out every man of swoman who has any knowledge in the cese or sbut bis mouth forever. . , - The Christian world, I believe, wonld upani- mously recognize it a8 3 wise and maniy course in Plymonth Church frankly to mccapt the friendiy offer [of Andover].

HOW TIE FUTURE WILL SCE IT. From ihe same pioer. It is cloar on tho face of things that. asths, genoral rale, those churches and those ministers were selacted which wers koown beforehand to be inclinad to tako sides with Plymouth Church on sume or all of tho questions st issue. Tothis great body of at least not unfavorable judges was edded a smaller aelection of pastors and othore, who had more or lesa decidedly commit- ted thomsclves publicly on those questions, znd on related 1ssues. Conspicuous among such members wers Mr. Beecher’s own sou-in-law, ‘whose late-coming ood sense, it seems, saved hum, however, from helping to shapoe the result; many pastors who havo u:Pecinlly identified themselves with Mr. Beccher's side in_the controversy ; those excel- lent gentlemen from Yalo College, of whom the eamae 18 true; the pastor from lilinois who fele it to be his duty and his privilege, two years ago. to pablish 8 germon in_severo review of the re- sult of the tirst Brooklyn Coancil; the reputed anthor of that editorial in Harper's Weekly of the number following the cloge of the civit trial,’ which interpreted the evidence and tho verdict most conclusively in Mr. Beecher'a favor : tho oditor of that member of the small family of} Congregational religious weokly journals which * had unrescrvedly tuken the side of the church againat Mrs. Moulton in tho matter of tho lately- proposed Mutual Council, the publisher of which jourual was algo present, and, on_the nomiva- tion of its editor, was made oae of the Assistant Moderators of the body; and that Secratary of the American Homo Miseionary Society who, 1 the Brooklyn Couscil, and since that dny, has been a8 definitely and earnestly idontified with tho position of the Plymouth Church a8 his dis- tinguished cousin has been supposed to be with another view of the subject, ana who had thought himself at liborty to take time aod pains enonghto gathor from the broad Iand, and condenss 1uto a pamphblet of eight-sod- twenty pagos, alleged facts in regard to the usageaof certain Congregational churches, and such opinions from Congregational authors as conld most plansibly b made to seom to farthor : in the minds of the Council thoss conclusions which the party convoking might natarally de- gire to obtain from it. - Had the body beon lesvened by any, over so small, infosion of the opposite elsment. and even one eingle pastor, professor, secretary, or other parson been invited who had made public uiterance of an opposits character, 80 much ag least would have baen doue towards the seeming of impartiality. Asitis, the deliverance of the Council must be judged by the calm pablic to be targely, though Kindly, ex-parte in quality, and, whether good, bad, or indifferent in ita matter, must inevitably go down to the futare with thay coloring upon it. = THE ENGLISH CHURCH. RUMOUS OF INTRIGUE AND MEBESY. The London correspoudent of the New York World, writing under date of Feb. 26, retstes the following particalars of certsin ecandals in thr: Esteblished Church : The venerable Dr. Pusey has related in a letter to the T'imes the history of an ‘*intrigue with Rome,™ in which he took & prominent part. ‘This was not the “intrigue ” which was nipped_in the bud by its pre- ‘mature disciosre a fow weeks ago, but it was some- thing like it.
