FUN AHEAD.
Some time in March, says the Daily Neves,
Senator Brooks, of New York, made a speech
iu the Senate on the Church property question,
in which he stated that Archbishop Hughes
held about $5,000,000 of property in his own
right, and urged this as one reason why the bill
should pass. In replv to this speech the Arch
bishop wrote a long letter in which h makes a
proposition, by way of denial, that if Mr.
Brooks' statement is true, he will take S2,000,
000 of that sum and appropriate it as follows:
SI 00,009 to ereet a building for a public libra
ry; $1,000,000 to be expended in books and
furnishing the same, and the $500,000 remain
ing to Lc invested for the support and perpe
tuity of the establishment. Mr. Brooks accepts
the I.'tter in a letter to the Courier Enquirer,
ia which paper Archbishop Hughes' letter first
appeared. The following is Brooks' letter:
Aucubishop IT rciics, Sesvtoq Beooss, asd a
Qcestio.v of V ehacity.
To thi Editor of the N. Y. Courier Ennui
rer: From the pressure ol" ciiicial dutit-s at
Albany, ut) to a L;te hour on Saturday evening.
1 have only this moment been able to give a
full perusal to the letter signed f John, Arc!
bishop of New York,' in reply to a speech of
mine delivered in the Senate on the Gth of
March List. I write now, not to auswer the
tpicstion of veracity between the Archbishop
and myself, and not to comment upon the pe
culiar temper and language of the Arch lush
cp's epistle. but to say that I accept and de-
wand, in behalf of the city and the public,
and in perfect good faith, if the promise was
malj in perfect good faith, the offer of that
Public Li! rary which is tendered in my name.
"not fir the use of any one profession or
class of men, list for all mankind."
As a condition of this pledge, I am to show
that Archbishop Hughes is, or was, on the Gth
of March last, the owner, in his own name,
and in this city, of a large amount of Ileal
Estate ; and to show, also, that this Property
in, or was upon the record, legally his own, to
dispose of by assignment, by wiil, or other
wise, as he may or might direct.
1 assume, notwithstanding the reasons for
believing otherwise, that in making his oiler,
the Archbishop does not mean to conceal the
truth, omit the truth, or to resort to any sub
terfuge whatever. I assume, too, that he
agree with me that the true definition of alio
is an "i:ite?:tiim to deceive," and that he also
agrees wita the moralist, m. 1 aiey, wl.o
lays it down as an axiom, that one may state
lom.-ty-nine facts, and yet not utter the whole
truth, because one truth added would change
the wholo basis of the ninety-nine facts.
On this presumption I shall maintain, at my
earliest liesairo, the spirit, substance and real
ity of all that was asserted by me in the speech
no-.via controversy upon the suljoct ol Church
Properly in this city. And i:i order that this
question may bts met fairly at the start, and in
or.ler that the City of Xcw York ma' be put in
possession of the promised Public Library, I
propose, preliminary to public controver
sy, that one arbitraiorshnll be named by Arch
hishop Hughes, one by myself, and that thi
two thus selected, shall jointly elect a third,
whose duty it shall be to decide, not merely
whether 1 have st;;icd the truth, or whether
Archbishop Hughes has equivocated or omit
ted the truth, but also upon the claim of New
Ycr': City to that Public Library, in which I
shall hereafter feci so deep an interest. I am
r.-ady tor the arbitration, and shall be ready
will: sny facts. Very respectiully,
EnAsrts BaooKS.
Bishop Hughes responded to this in a letter,
from which we qr.tte the lt;!io'.vi::g :
"Senator Brooks thinks lie has discovered a
way of twisting out of the awkward position in
to which he rushed with ees opm an I m die
pre peiise. He proposes an arbitration, forsooth.
With what a show of artiessness he attempts
to evade tiie d lect issue of veracitv involved in
controversy, I knot-, of my own knowledge.
that in three statemeiiis above rel'ered to. Sena
tor Brooks has taken as a grent liberty with truth
as it he ha J said inat two and two make seven.
"Arbitr itio.i is unnecessary. If I am the
owner of whuie squares of ground, Mr. Brooks
can s':o'.v from the records of the city, or indi
cate by physic! inspection where they are. If
he TaHs to do this, while his proof's, if he has
ary, are so uir.loniablo and so within Ms reach,
tiien tlrj public will not fail to perceive that
Jir. Brooks in his place as Senator has made a
stav-.-riicnt iwiieli is false, and was intended to
Ik- injurious. So 5l I received any conveyance
of proo-.-r! y from trustees, the records cited by
I Mr. Brooks in the Senate will hear him out.
If he fails to produce those records, then the
liuhliu wu perceive that his statemc
; , ,
hoo-1, and wdi not be siow in conuiij
r.p.is;n that Senator Brooks is wh
lvethat his statement isatai.se-
Xto the con-
at he is."
Mr. Brooks has in another letter undertaken
to prove his statement. After some pretty cans-
tic,ch:.racteristie,but not ill tempered remarks,
iie states his purpose arid meaning as follows:
"What I meant ami mean by the ownership
of reul-estate, is what the law means by it, and
therefore, we can have o misunderstanding of
i le:is.; I mean that the legnl title is vested in
John Hughes. I mean by John Hughes, the
Archbishop of New York. I mean by owner-
.-f r; .-.i.fsl.iti- t'io leir:il riffht to controll.
r : . . " . :. :
possess .ii:d use it oy assignment, iy v.ui, or
otherwisa.- I
c'".
I mean, that if the Archbishop,
were to die without a wiiP or to
th. or should choose to dispose
of his property to his ca n heirs, or for Ids lcr
sonal advantage, that he has the legal power
to dv so, tt his own good will an l pleasure. I
:;H'au,that,in tact and i:i act, by the Baltimore
Ordinances of IS 19 and 18-32, by prior cl iim
t- I it 1iiL.i.inoit l ,.ct linitlriM 1 1 tiu) fir rtur
Al.c'rii,is,.,1,8a,1i Bishops, own, assume, control
and direct the temporalities of the Church, its
lands, its estates and its entire properly. I
iiv.-tn, srieoking now after an examination of
' . .
h'fiil records and indentures, that the convev-
(u the A.cl,i(is.10I) ;vrc t,0 ;,.m Acrtj

nxt j tl.ink. I am understood and
that no one will accuse me of seeking a loop
hoh) of eac.tpe. or with any desire to occupy an
equivocal po.si'iojj." , .
"'Now for the record, in part."
Here follow copies of eleven records of con.
veyance, absolute and exclusive, in favor ol
'John Hughes.' and to all appearance they are
actual title deeds of valuable property .amount
ing in all to upwards of $12.,0iM), which, Mr.
Brooks says is ody the beginning of the end.
L'nder this explicit statement the Archbish
op finds ut last that it is himself who is in the
awkward position,' and he accordingly endea
vors in a reply to 'twist out' by saying that the
matter at issue is in regard to the declaration
that he was in possession of church property val
ued at $3,000,000, conveyed by trutees,and not
to h 't ownership of real-estate property in New
York city. And in this connection ha saysr
"In reference to my ownership of real-esiafe
propcr.'u, aa Mr. Brooks calls it, here i o qus
Ifon. the titJa of many Catholic-Churches in
the city of New York is vested in me, and so
lar I am the owner. My intention is. even, to
add to this, property by purchasing such addi
tional lots, or accepting the gift pf them, as I
may fial frotn time to time to be desirable for
the purpose of providing religious instruction
for the wants of the Catholic rlock committed
to my charge. If Mr. Brooks will examine the
records of ths city of New York three months
Ixoai this time ho will probably find conveyaa-
a
as made to me by parties who have the right
to sell or bestow, us they think proper. "
He then refers to the ten records of convey
ances noted in Mr. Brooks' letter, and says that
several of them are leases, not conveyances, of
property; that one is from the assignee'of a bank
rupt board of trustees, and two other duplicates.
Jlr. Brooks lias published a rejoinder to the
above letter of the bishop's, in which he says:
'The Archbishop conveyed the idea, and
meant to convey the idea, and was so under
stood by the public, that he was not the own
er of Chu'ch property in this city and else
where. Driven from this position by the rec
ord transcribed from the Register's office,
showing the actual conveyances of property
to him, he now with more boldness than ever,
admits the truth of what I said on this ponint,
and declares that the question between us tC:s
net in regard io any such thing a his ownership
of Heat Esiaie Properly in this city!''
As to the record proving the property to have
been It.ised instead of conveyed. Mr. Brooks
contends that it makes very little difference,
from the fact that the leases are for 999 years,
at one cent a year. This he considers equiva
lent to a conveyance. That the Bishop should
assert that the property from an assignee of a
bankrupt board did not come from trustees,
Mr. Brooks intimates is a quibble, and then
proceeds to show that the duplicates appear
on the records. Mr. Brooks concludes his
letter citing eleven additional deeds of con
veyance to the Bishop, and states that the val
ue of the property thus conveyed is very dif
ferent now to what it was when the convey
ance was made. What cost $70,000 a few
years ago. is worth $400,000 now, and what
cost $10,000 then has sold for $40,000 since.
THE LU.UBEIt TRADE.
The Columbia Spy says: Since our last, the
raffs from above have been coming in and pas
sing down in scarcely undiminished quantity.
On Saturday and Sunday the Pine Creek 'del
egation' appeared in great numbers, and the
river presented as animated an appearance as
we have yet observed. Our anticipations
concerning the unusually large supply have
been more than realized, and still raft after
raft is passiug down, and the river continues
in excellent rafting condition. Below this
the channel of the river has been blocked up
several times by the staving of lumber on its
way down. At other lumber stations the
same lare supply is noticeable. Thus, the
IJarie.'liiu says of the lumber there :
The river is literally crammed with raffs for
about four miles along the shore. To persons
who have never seen it, it is worth coming to
see. Never before has such a quantity been
here at one time. Principally all timber.
All nccounts concur concerning the unusual
quantify for the market this year. The Port
Deposit correspondent of thelilkton Wh ia; says:
Of timber there will be an unprecedented
quantity, the high price of that article for the
past year having c msed unusual e.ertions in
gtttidg forward supplies this season. Prices
of both lumber an 1 timler are receding, and
in the opinion of those competent to judge,
will be considerably lower than last year.
Timber will scarcely realize one-half of last
ye ir'spriee.
'1 he Pittsburg Chronicle states that immense
quantities of rafts and bouts of lumber are
coming down the Allegheny river.
The Wrightsville SS:r says:
Timber seems to have receded most in price,
as we are informed tliat sales have been made
at $y per M. for the best quality, such as com
manded from $16 to $18 last season.
There have been several sales of lumbermade
here, condiiioisrlly the purchser to pay the
regular market rates after they become - lixed .
Tiie reporte 1 sales that have been made with
out such understanding, have been below the
prices of last year about $2 a $3 per thousand
feet. The heavy manufacturers, however,
continue to hold out for last year's prices.
