Mir At Dubuque last week daring a

head descended from the sky into the
centre of the street, directly on the head
of Paul Hennis, and there exploded with
a terrific report. The hair was burned
frotn his scalp, the blood oozed from his
oars, a gash an inch and a•half long was
found under his chin where the electric
current had apparently made its exit; the
shock had broken his neck, and his body
was literally skinned. All down his back
and chest and limbs to the• soles of his
feet, the cuticle was peeled from the flesh
and rolled and curled upon itself, leaving
the corpse a shocking spectacle which
those who saw could never forget.

seems to extend from the upper part of
Wyoming territory to the northern bor
der of Texas, with occasional peaceable
districts intervening. The Comanehes
have had an engagement with a company
of Texas militia, in which the latter were
compelled to retreat. There have also
been raids in Wyoming. and the miners
are greatly ettiteti. The few regiments
of United States cavalry stationed at the

half a mile long by little leis than half a

of the new buildings, the greater part
burned being buildings of an indifferent

YARNING.---The local editor of the

bell,geto off the foil owing paragraph on
a class of persona in all communities vul
garly denominated "bores'': "If there is
any one bore more fearfully aggravating
than another it is our opinion, after years
of patient suffering, that the man or we
man with a revolving get of yarns fills the
bill. We have been cornered and forced
to listen to the same old tales again and
again until life seemed a cruel mockery
and death a sweet elysium of forgetful
ness and rest. Every little town as large
as Waynesboro'has its complement of these
revolving smooth bores and there is no
escape—though we take the wings of the
morning and flee unto the uttermost parts
of the earth they are there. And they
bore you with such an air of evident in

heart as hard as a sewing machine agent's
cheek to turn away. A man of ordinary
endurance can stand it to hear the same

themselves each in its accustomed place,

which one is coining next with an unva

The Error not Corrected.
' 'Who Justitia is we do not know, but
as he undertook to vindicate an error
tough in Tract No. 3 by Dr;Gerhart of
the Theological Seminary at Lancaster
we Wilfirlic - iaql. tat he bus not succeeded at
all in correcting the error.
The quotations, side by side in the Re
cord of May 23th, are not garbled quota
tions. The one is word for word from
Tract No. 3, and the other verbatim from
Dr. G's. card,which appeared in the Mes
senger and in the Record.
Let us stick to the question, it no way
will we-be drawn from it by any side issues
that may be sprung. We will state in
small cap what Dr. G. taught in his Tract:
In holy Baptism grace is the same di
vine life of Christ given by the neWcreat
ing power of the Holy Spirit to those who
are by nature dead in sin, IN THAT BY
BAPTISM THEY ARE ENGRAFTED INTO JE
SUS CHRIST AND ARE THEREFORE MADE
PARTAKERS OF CHRIST AND ALL HIS BEN
EFITS. There is no external washing with
water without the internal washing with
the Spirit." This we say is not German
Reformed doctrine, and is not Prostestant.
It is not the truth as it came down to us
:ougi rtes. ,"is error—error ol
a most pernicious kind.
And to say that Dr. G. "is regarded iu
his own church and outside 'of it an edu
cated man , •••• 4 - •
intelligent man at — iiii6al not a
.asirthe j oioliftnia—sper.; 9 1 pleading, no
argument. It does not make the teaching
of the Tract truth.
Arius was "a studious, modest and tour•
teous" man, but this did not make his er
rors truth, although in the ascendency,
under the succession of Emperors, and
Athanasius fur u holdin _ with heroic fi-
delity the Nicenei twin opposition to
Arianism, .was persecuted and banished,
Pelagius , was a British Monk of exalted
reputation, but this did not make his er
ror truth though lie was favorably receiv
ed at Rome, and Pope Zozimus was at the
head of the Pelagian party. •It matters
not what the reputation of a man for in
tellectual attainments, mental acumen
theological lore and refinement of manners
if guilty of teaching error it will not there
fore make the error less serious and dan
gerous to embrace. Nor can au enlight
ened Protestant christian community be
persuaded •to adopt error as truth because
taught bra man eminent for learning.
It is true Dr. G. is a professor of a Sem
inary directly under the oversight of "a
Board of Visitors, whose duty it is to at.
tend the examinations at the close of ev
ery session and to guard sacredly its or
thodoxy." 'Who are these gentlemen,
pray, constituting the Board of*Visitom
guarding sacredly the orthodoxy of the
Reformed church at Lancaster? Sui gen
eris : Men of the same opinion with Dr.
G. Does it make the error of Tract No.
3 truth, because, forsooth, if twelve gen
tlemen are selected for• partisan purposes
by Synods holding the balance of power,
by the force of clerical majority, say it is
true ? I trow not., Does the Board of
visitors endorse the tract ? This kind of
pleading does not c,orrect the error, nor
make it truth to be believed. Now think
of it, the Board of visitors, "strictly
guarding the orthodoxy of the Reformed
church at Lancaster," must be easily dup
ed if Dr. G. could be so contradictory and
that on one of the vital doctrines taught
in H's. cathechism, if he studies it. If H.
studies it. This kind of impertinence and
impudence we pass by unnoticed. It sa.
vors of assumption and vanity on the
part of Justitia ill•becoming one who en
ters the arena of sontroversy. It is not
courteous, nor gentlemanly. "Is it at all
presumable that such palpable contradic
tions could have place, either in his (Dr.
qs.) teaching or writings." Yes, it is
But it is not presumption that there is
such contradiction. It is an unalterable
fact, and it is no insult to the readers of
the Record to say so. Let the intelligent
christian community be the arbiters wheth
er it is not as flat a contradiction as two
thilgs can be.
If the learned Dr. G. gOt himself in a
dilemma, and does not know what course
to pursue to get out of it we cannot help
it. Would that ho would say positively
which of the two declarations he is will
ing to stand by. We know where we
stand, and need not resort to sophistical
explanations at any time to be understood,
butl forget we are not learned. (We would
like if Tract No. 3 would be inserted in
the Record. It would be a curious paper
for many readers, as it comes from the
pen of a Professor in a Reformed Semin
ary.)
We repeat the ex cathedra declarations
are a flat contradiction. Here they stand
side by aide :

"Through faith we become the mem
bers of Christ; for it is through faith that
we receive the Spirit."
Dean Alford says : In answer to the
, unbelieving question of v. 9, Jno. In: 9,
"our Lord proceeds to show • that the ap
pointed means of this new birth, and of
being upheld in the life to which it is the
entrance, is faith in the Son of God."
Ques: 61. Why sayest thou that those
are righteous by faith only!
Ans. Not that I ant acceptable to God
on account of the worthiness of faith but
because only the satisfaction, righteous
ness and holiness of Christ is my righte
ousness before God and that I cannot re
ceive and apply the same to myself any
other way than by faith onlyr But Dr.
G. says, the sinner is made partaker of
Christ and all his benefits by baptism.—
Our Catechism declares that we "cannot
receive and apply Christ and his benefits
than by faith only. It will not do either
to say: ."Baptism, is by itself insetpient."
lirsinus declares that "All works are ex
cluded from our justification."
Clues. 65. Since then we are made par
taker] of Christ, and all his benefits, by
faith only, Whence does this faith proceed?
Ans. From the Holy Ghost,who works,
faith in our hearts by the preaching of
the Gospel, and confirmsit by the use of
the Sacraments." *Dr. G. teaches in his
Tract the opus operatum of the Sacrament
of Baptism. "In Baptism grace is the
same divine life of Christ 'given by the
new-creating power of the Holy Spirit to
those who are by nature dead in sin," &c.
The Sacra.tuent is made the means of re
generation, but not thus in the Scriptures.
(See i Peter x : 23, Jo.x: 13, James I: 18.)
In a word Dr. G. teaches sacramental re
generation. Our catechism defines the
sacraments thus: Ques. 67. "The sacra
ments are holy visible signs and seals, ap
pointed of God for this end that by the
use thereof he may the mot's fully declare
and seal to us the promises of the• Gospel,
vis: that he grants us fully the remission
of sin and life eternal, for the sake of that
one sacrifie of Christ accomplished on the
Cross."
Baptism is the sign of regeneration.—
Repentance and faith being required of
adults before they can receive baptism.—
It is a sign of grace, a sign of regenera
tion, not regeneration itself by which the
dispositions and habits of sinful souls are
changed. If Dr. G. teaeheth in the Sem
inary that there is an external regenera
tion by Baptism by which the relation of
the Owner to God is changed and is inside
a member of the Visible Church let him
say so. He dues not teach it in his Tract.
We say he is not misrepresented by any
of his reviewers, if his language in the
Tract is not a huddle of absurd theological
speculations. Neither D, ctors Hodge,or
Nast, or Good, or Stearn, or Bomberger,.
or Dorner of Berlin, the greatest of living
theologians,have sustained Dr. Gerheart's
theological position as German Reformed.
He is nowhere sustained in or out of our
Church, but by those of the Mercersburg
School. Does Dr.Krauth sustain hint and
those of his ilk as teaching German Re
formed doctrine? Does he do so in the
Mercersburg Review? No sir! Any one
desirous of learning the divergence from
the landmarks the fathers set let him read
the book by Dr.Schneck : MERCERSDURG
TREOLaGY INCONSISTENT WITLI PROTES
TANT AND REFORMED DOCTRINE.
We have shown that the declaration in
the , . Tract by Dr. G. is error by and front
the - only symbol of faith the Reformed
Church acknowledges. Dr. G. hitmelf
Dr. Gerhart in the
Messenger.
All the benefits of
Christ are received,
that. is, appropriated
by us and thus made
our own, not by bstrp
tient, not in the way
of. any sacramental
transaction, but by
personal faith.a.nd by
the exercise of per
sonal faithex.clusive-
Iv.
of Sacramental Justification, "the mcst
mischievous of all those practical errors
in the Church of Rome." "Instrument
alis causa—sacramennim Baptimai sine
quo nuili unquana justificitio contingit."
Dr. G. makes the sacrament• of Ba 4-
tism as the above quotation dearly
the,instrumental cause by which the sin
ner, dead in sins, is engrafted into Jusus
Christ and is therefore "made partaker
of Christ and all his benefits." This is
not the teaching of the Heidelberg Cath
ech ism.
Ques. 20. Are all men, then, as they
perished in Adam, saved by Christ ?
Ans. No; only those who are engrafted
into him, and receive sill his benefits by
true faith.
Ursinus the commentator of the Cate
chism says : Notice' carefully the lan
guage : "Salvation through Christ is not
bestowed upon who perished in Adam;
but ally upon those who, by a true faith
are engrafted -into Christ and receive all
his benefits. * *
"The sum of this whole matter is there
fore this, that although the satisfaction of
Christ, the mediator for our sins, is per
fect, yet all do not obtain deliverance
through it. but only those who believe
the - Gosp - elTarid - a - pply - to - themselves-the-:
merits of Christ by a true faith."'
Ques. 32. But why art thou called a
Christian?
vs.3l n I am a member
because tam a member ofChrist
and thus Ursinus correctly says
in his exposition : "There are two .
of Christians; true and false; those who
are Christians merely in appearance, are
those who have been baptised, and profess
the Christian faith, but are without con
version. Those are true christians who
are not only baptized and profess the
octrbee of Christ, but who are also pos
sessed of a true faith, and declare this by
the fruits of repentance: or, they are those
who axe members of Christ by a true
faith."
condemns the error in his card of 1874 in
the Messenger. We will rejoice greatly
and humbly before God when all within
the borders of our Reformed Zion again
declare, unequivocally, "All the benefits
of Chiret are received, that 19, appropria_
ted by us and thus made our own, not by
baptism, not in the way of any sacramen
tal transaction, but by personal faith, and
the exercise of personal faith exclusively,
to the banishing from among tie the error
taught in Tract No. 3. Much of the ar
ticle by Justitia, is so irrelavaut to the
vital question that we will not notice it
any farther. God pity the people we say,
who are taught that "In holy baptism

God pity the people who are taught
"to come and seek deliverance from the
power of the devil the remission of
sin, and the gift of a new and' spiritual
life by the Holy GhoSt, through the
Sacrament of Baptism." If &main de
sires to carry on the controversy in the

andwepromise to let him have the fight
