The conrregation in attendance a: Ply- mouth Church, Brooklyn, N. Y,, on Sunday morning, were requested by the Kev. Mr. Burton to remain after the benedicuon had been pronounced. The religious ceremonies being completed, Mr. Burion read a commu- nication setting forth the recent action of a few members hastily called together to take action upon a letier sent to them by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher. Mr. Duncan briefty related the circumstances under which the letter was received. He said that immediate- ly after the publication of a former letter by Mr. Beecher, some of the church members bad written io their pastor amnouncing the feeling excited thereby in the cherch, and de- siring some sdditional explanation of his views. Mr. Beecher consented to write such « letter, and bad sent it to them for their con- sideration. Captain Duncan then read it. Mr. Beecher demonstrates, in this second letter, that his desire for the prompt restora- tion of the Union is consistent with the steadi- est adhere: to the political doctrines with which he bas so long been identified. He thereby removes the mos: formid:uble obstruc- tion to the spread of his views in the Repub- lican party. His first letter had ramsed x breeze about his ears, to which he thus refers: “Just now those angry voices come to me «3 Tuae winds rour through the trees The winds will die, the trees willlive. * * I Am pot going weakly to turn away from my settled convictions of the public wei! for fear t bad men may praise me or good men blame. He justifies and affirms all that he bas said before, and then defines his position in 1egard to the President, sxymg: “1 believe him to be honest, sincere in desir- ing what he regards as the public good, but slow and unaptin receiving help from other minds. Proud and seusifive, firm to obstina- cy, resolute to flerceness, intelligent in his own sphere (which is narrow,) he holds his opin- ions inflexibly. He often mistakes the intensi- ty of bis own convictions for strength of evi- dence. Such a man bas a true sphere in peri- ods of peril, when audacious firmness and rude Vigor are needed. Butin the delicate tasks of adjustment which follow civil war, such a na- ture lacks that tact and delicacy and moral in- tuition whieh constitute the true statesman. Yet Mr. Johnson is to be our President for nearly three years to come; clothed with a power which belongs to few thrones. Beside the honer which a people owe to him as the Chiet Magistrate, we must, as Christian citi- zens, credit him with bis real excellence—his original borror of secession, his bold resistance totreachery, his persistent and self-denying heroism inthe long dark days of Tennessee. We must not forget that he has jealously re- sisted a centralization of power in the Federal Government; that he Ras sought to dignify aud secure atrue State Rights; thathe has main- tained a simplicity of manners and a true love of the common people. Itis our daty, like- wise, to forestall and prevent, as much as pos- sible, by kind but faithful criticism of his er- rorson theone hand, and by sympathy and kindness on the other, those dangers to which’ he is liable under attacks which he is peculiar— ly unable to bear with calmness, and those dan- gers of evil counselors, which more and more gravitate toward him. So long as it was pos- sible, Lhave been silent upon Mr. Johnson's faults, and now speak so plainly, only lest I seem lo approve or cloak them.” Mr. Beecher deplores the lack of true unity between the President and Congress, and says: “Had a united Government said to the South, promptly backed up, as it would have been, by the united North, ith slavery we must take out of the Constitution whatever slavery put in, and ‘putin whatever slavery for its own support left out”—there can scarcely bea doubt that long before this, the question would have been settied, the basis of representation im the South conformed to that in the North, and the prin- ciple, the most fundamental and important of wil, might baye been established in the Consti- tution, that manhood and full citizenship are identical.” Mr. Beecher believes the pending constitu- tional Aamendmert to be intrinsically just and reasonable, but he maintams that to postpone the restoration of the Southern States for its ratification would be a virtual decision to post- pone reconstruction for years, and incur all the hazard of mischief which would thence result. “Either,” he says, «the advantages of the Union are fallacious, or the continuous ex- clusion of the South from it will breed disor- der, make the future reunion more difficult, and. espe ly, subject the freedmen to the very worst condition of society that can well exist.” Mr. Beecher desires the election of representatives to Congress, this fall, who ta- vor the early admission of the recusant States. «In this spirit,” he says, “and for this end, I drew up my Cleveland letter. J deem its views sound; Iam not sorry ‘hat I wrote it.” The New York Sun, (Republican,) says: The effect in Plymouth Ohurch, when this Jetter was read, can be imagined much better than it can be described. It is well known tnat the “Radical” element is somewhat strong in that tabernacle, and scores of ultra Abolition- ists worship there. After Mr. Beecher’s letter had been read yesterday, some of those extre- mists took exceptions thereto, and among others, Mz. Lewis Tippan vigorously charac- terized it as *nothing but an elaboration of his former letter." and added: «There is 10 argu- ment init.” This view wasendorsr a by others, who lingered in the pews and aisles, discuss- ing the document. The Conseryative mem. bers, however, expressed themselves satisfied with Mr. Beecher’s explanations, and were glad to believe that tis letter would calm the passions of those who were disposed <o de- nounce ibeir pastor and disturb the uarmoay of bis congrega:ion, on account of the views embodied in his Cleveland leer. The Commercial Advertiser, (Repubiican,) says: “The letter is calculated to make a pro- foand ihpression on the publi¢é mind, and to cause many to modify the strong judgmen:s they bave prononnced, both apon the coarse of the President and ot the a thy i i" wa y quarreling it. ; ‘ : TEMBER 11. 1866. + N&. 4,217. THE PRESIDENT'S TOUR. Disgracefui Riot at Indianapolis—Several Men Shot. INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 0.—The reception of the President to-morrow night will consist of a torcblight procession. reception epeech and supper at the Bates House. e committee from this city will meet the President at Terra Haute. THE ARRIVAL. INDIANAPOLI8, Sept. 10.—The President ar- rived at 7:15p.m. All along the route from St. Louis be was received with great enthusi- asm. Thousands gathered around the notel here, and cheers were given for the President and Gen. Grant, those for the latter prepon- derating. The President was introduced by General Meredith. The President was received with afew groans, huzzas for Johnson, and cries fer Gen. Grant, and some rude remarks were said. Fellow-citizens » [Cries tor Gen. Grant.} It is Bot my intention [cries of “Stop,” “Go on,”’} wo make a long speech. give me your at- o on.” * No, no: we want nothing to do with “Grant!” “Grant!” «Johnson !” and groans,) 1 would like to say to this crowd here to-nighi—[ ‘Shut up: we don’t want to hear from you,” --Johnson "” “Johnson!” Grant! “Grant!” The President paused a few moments and returned to the cony. The Mon. David Kilgore went to the Portico to try his powers of persuasion and keep order. He said: One moment more. [“No!” cries for Grant, groans.) Let me appeal to you, citizens of Indianepolis and of Indiana. |The confu- sion sull continued} Let me appeal to you again. (The crowd was unrelenting and would not be quiet.) The gentieman then retired from the Portico, and the excursionists went to dinner. The crowd continued to groan and make otner disturbing noises. Several disturbances oocurred with lamentable results. Pi>tol shots were fired, by which one man was wounded in the eyes and another in the knee. Accord- ing to the best information attainable, a mar- sbalon horseback was seen riding along the line of torehlights, and evidently giving direc. Uons, as the men soon thereafter started out of their ranks, and persons were observed knock- ing duwn with clubs several of the transpa- rencies.
