I think there s tou much disposition to make a ecpegoat of the Catholics Jn thiz watter of the murder of Mr, Hanford, as well us any other things, aud, while they doubtless have many things to unswer for, it 13 ucither wise nor just to be cternanlly pieking at the beam jo the eyes of the Cathoflic Church unti thuse who du it can tee move dearly themselves, It s surprising to see s cergyinun who can write with the furce ol dearners that this so- called sermon Indfeates so completely biinded to themoty in Wis own cyes. Does he nut know, when lie talks of forcing the Protestant versivn of the Bible buck into the schools, that bhe i proposivg to do Just what he g0 maviyrely covdeinns the Cathollea fur delng, or for trying w do! Where, 1 ask, “doca he o his auothurity for suylng_ that my children shall Msten to Lis Bible teachings in our public schools whether I approve of it or not! Our public fchiools are not theologieal mills, but places for teachig mich branchivs of education as ull ugree are essen- tial in the ordingry business of tife, and the bickerlngs and wranglings of the (nfinity of religlous sects should have no pluce there, It the Catholics have alded fn the clearing of our publlc schools of this lust bune ol contention {tle urthodox Bible), they deserve the thunks of every respectable porsot (b the community.

If we would prevent the Catholles fronm encrosching on our rights let us not attempt o inpose anything that is wrong upon them. Let the Protestunts put ou the armor of truth und justice themselves, und then they may safely count on the assistance of their multitude of friends who will stand by the right whenever they find {2, but who will never by word or voe be guilty of again remandlng that bone of contention, the Bible, into owr puldic schovls. A LIziAL PROTESTANT. TRI REV, Xit PARKIURST, To the Lditor ef The Tribune. Cuicago, Aug. 16.—"Wonders will never cease” Verily, fudeed, has our friend the Rev. Mr. Parkhurst astounded es. We can ecarcely beliove, ufter hearing Lim, tims he could make himself so consplenonsly sali o the eyes of of lis muny congregation, as well as outslde friends, by giving utteranee to the prejudices of kis miud 0s he dil on tnat Sunday.

'To whom will a slntier o for coudoten 1f not to his minist Rut, elas! when they, tom, ery out, % Cruclfy Him," Falth shows sizns of decline, ut least the faith protessed by Nr. Parkhurst.
