TRUE CHRISTIANITY.
Great a baa been the number of ascetic Chris
tians, there Is nothing; nacelle in Christianity.
That element Is entirely wanting in the tcven
Ings of Christ. . The "Man of Sorrows" c m
tlnilaltv invites his disciples to joy, and to 1 ill
ness f joy. Sorrow does not belong to the
intiumte essence of religion, though it be its
ever act c.mjianying shadow.
Falce views of repentance as little else than
trrief aid pain, connected with equally false
views of merit, led imperfect Christians at a
very !ily age to undertake methods of self
punislimttit. The more they suffered here the
less they rhould suffer hereafter. An exube
rated emphasis was laid on peDltence as penance,
penalty, and pain. Human sorrow came to be
considi ic-d as a recompense, reparation, or sat
isfaction to God. So much voluntary trouble
was t-et oil against so much sin. More specula
tive winds, especially those .of the Oriental
Chnrt b, brought in a theory to support and
rceouinvnd the practice, namely, that
the soul could be best purified by the
mortification of the body. Out of these pre
posbcssious grew the whole system of hermit
age?, vici's, lenten fasts, and varied self-infllc-tlons
which have succeeded in leaving their
mark on the religion of Rome and the Oriental
churche. The most remarkable thing about
this is, that there is nothing like it in the Gos
pel. There everything in it has the sweet
iuuoccbt fragrance of childhood. Sufferings
appear, indeed, but it is from the defect of
piety, aud not its abundance, faith, hope
and love tend to make the primitive believer
happy; and a smile irradiates his countenance
when amidst persecution, which perfectly agrees
with the injunctions so often given in the
Scriptures that we should live a life of oy.lJr.

, THE DUNK A
In our issue of last Saturday we published
tinder the head of "Religious Intelligence" a
paragraph about the Missouri Dunkards, to
which exception has been taken by a member
of that sect, who sends us the following com
munication, which will be found to contain
gome inti resting information about a religious
body that is but little known to the general
public. We would remind our readers and the
writer of the following communication that the
paragraph in question referred particularly to
the Dunkards of Missouri, aud that it was iu no
respect intended to reflect in any way upon the
Beet or its peculiar observances either in that
State or eNewhere. Ed.
To the Jsuttnr of The Evening Telegraph:
Your attention is respectfully called to the
"religious column" of jour issue of Saturday,
the 8u iut. Under the heading 'Dunkards"
are several errors, of which, it is hoped, you
will publish a correction. How any writer
could innorantly make aa many misstatements
in so short au article is hard to conceive.
lie suvk: "The Missouri Dunkards have just
beeu holding their annual meeting." The Dunk
ards, Genuuu Baptists, or, as they designate
themselves, The Brethren, are an undivided de
nomlcatiou: that is, they have but one annual
meeting, which is a general conference, and is
always held on the first two or three days ira
mediately following Whit Sunday.
He neilt asserts, "They have no church build
ings of their own, but preach in other churches
or in sheus or barns In short, wherever they
can ket a chance." It is true their plain but
cften comuit.dious meeting-houses may not de
li erve to be called churches, yet such as they are,
there are hundreds of them scattered over our
country irom New Jersey to California. If the
writer tu question would take the trouble he
couiu find a ''Dunkard" meeting-house in this
city, ou Crwn street, below Caliowhill, and an
other at Geriuantown. They very teldoia
"preacu in other churches," but quite often in
the dwelling-houses or barns of Isolated mem
bers, uiid frequently under the shady foliage of
the grove or wrest.
lie says, "They have no ordained preachers."
All their ministers are ordained according to
what is hi pi osed to be the scriptural mode. It
is true they have no diplomat authority from a
theolegieal teniinary, but are chosen from
among the laity of the congregation needing a
preacher by a general and secret ballot without
nomlnatioiio "Electioneering" is strictly pro
hibited. s that, if Divine guidance is bought,
which is always recommended by the elders, its
exereifc inuy not be prevented by human influ
ence. Their preachers are farmers, mechanics,
cioctorh, teachers, etc., and as they receive no
ompcmau..ii they follow their secular occupa
tions for a living.
'Ibis writer is correct iu saying, "The Dunk
'arde baptize by immersion," but this does not
fully dt'M-Miie their mode. J ties candidate takes
the'kneelintr posture, and, is thrice immersed,
face foremost.
He bui uiriLer and but for this, very likely
Do noli, e wuuid have been taken of his article
"They uu to tain as a religious ceremonial feet
washing, tl e men washing, the feet of the
, vomtu and the women ot the men." I have
without h si alion used the masculine pronoun
In relet ence to this writer, for no loan would
pen BM'lt a scandalous slander upon her sex as
is the above assertion.
If th s w i iter would go into a Dunkard meeting-house
at the time of a love-least, where the
ordinance of feet-washing is practised, or upon
any other occasion, he would find the seals
free; but see a scrupulous separation of, the
sexes, the males occupying one side of' the
house aud the females the other. When the
Hsters "wash one another's feet'' they generally
occupy the seats at the extremity of their side
of the building. The spectators of their own
eex being seated between them and the men,
exclude , in a great measure, from the observa-
t on of the lat er; the performance ot the ordi
nance b itte former. A Dunkard.
