He is all imagination and no discretion. He rises Sometimes into a region of wild poetry, where he can color everything to suit himself. His | Motto well expresses the character of his argu- mentation: Mountains are as unstable as Is;” a fancy is as good as a fact, and a high- ix period is rather better than a logical demonstration. His inordinate self confidence makes him at once ferocious and fearless. He | ‘was @ practical politician before he “took the | stump against Christianity, and at all times he has proved his capacity to “‘split the ears of the groundlings” and make the unskillful laugh. a article before us isthe least objectionable of productions. Its style is Maher wa bet- Fah ited to the weight of the theme. Here the violence of his fierce invective is moderated; his lace to an attempt at sophistry if not more true, and his coarse are either exeluded altogether or else rd in the descent obscurity of general terms. Such a paper from such a man, at a time like the Present. is not wholly unworthy of a grave con- i would an oath—but these people manifestly be- lieved = a judgment Poin n ge a God of whose displeasure feared above all things. Third. The witnesses could not have been mistaken. The ut them. For ev mature of the facts inded the bility of f they had = averment they had “thesensible and true avous of their own eyes” and ears. Besides, they were plain-thinking, sober, unimaginative men, who, unlike Mr. ingersoll’ always, under all circum- stances, and mere | in the presence of eterni- ty, recognized the difference between mountains and clouds. It is inconceivable how any fact could be proved by evidence more conclusive than the statement of such persons, publicly | given and steadfastly persisted in through every kind of a ——— and torture | to the last agonies of a lingering death. Fourth. Apart from terrible tests, the more ordi- nary claims to credibility are not wanting. They were men of unimpeachable character. The most virulent enemies of the canse they spoke and died for have never suggested a reason for doubting their personal honesty. But there is aifirmative proof that they and their fellow- disciples were held by those who knew them in the highest estimation for truthfulness. Where- ever they made their report it was not only believed, but believed with a faith so implicit that thousands were ready at once to seal it with their blood. Fifth. The tone and temper of their narrative impress us with a sentiment of profound respect. It does not appear that the statement of the evangelists were ever denied by any person who an expli ; upon which, as a pl ourselves upon the poe He avers that a certain “something called Christianity” is a false faith imposed on the world without evidence; that the facts it pretends to rest on are mere in- Yentions; that its doctrines are pernicious; that itsrequirements are unreasonable, and that its nd thus an issue is made, mld say, we “put Sanetions are cruel. Ideny all this, and assert | pretended to know the facts. we call the on the trary that its doctrines are divinely | fundamental truths of Christianity consists of revealed: its fundamental facts incontestably great public events which are sumeesty estab- lished by history without special proof. From the facts established by this evidence it follows Soap that the gospel has come to us from God. That silences all reasoning about the wisdom and justice of its doctrines, since it is impossible even to imagine that wrong can be done or commanded by that Sovereign Being whose will alone is the ultimate standard of all —— Judge Black, after making a number of quo- tations from Col. Ingersoll, such as “the punish- ment of sinners in eternal hell is excessive,” “Christians haye been guilty of wanton and wicked persecution,” “the gospel of Christ does Proved; its morality perfectly free from all taint of error, and its influence most beneficent upon society in zeneral, and upon all individuals who accept it and make it their rule of action. I Want a decision upon sound judicial principles. Mr. Ingersoll’s first specification against Christianity is the belief of its disciples “that there is a personal God, the creator of the ma- terial universe.” If God made the world it was ® most stupendous miracle. and all miracles, the “chil dren of mend: To admit the one great miracle of creation would be an admission that ave at least probable, and that according to Mr. Ingersoll’s idea, are ity.” Would ruin his whole case.

Never was its influence for good more plainly per- ceptible than now. It has not converted, puri- fied and reformed all men, for its tirst prin- origin afflicted with.

OBJECTIONS TO MOSAIC LAW. Dismissing in scathing words Col. Ingersoll’s gharze axainst the moral code, Judze Black alludes to his strictures on the civil code of the Jews, which Ingersoll pronounces so bad and ‘unjust that the law-ziver by whom it was estab- lished must have been as savagely cruel as the Creator that made storms and I nees; and the work of both was more worthy of a devil than a God: ‘His language is recklessly bad, & very defective in method, and altogether lacking the infidel heart for a time.
