Telegraph & Messenger. TUESDAY MOUSING. MOT. 28, 1871. ltrplj to Jlr. *• Ansloy. Editor, TtUprapf, and : 1*0* card of J. A. Anrfiy, in your issue the 24th ta rt.,.. he say*: “Prominent gentlemen oomirg froS/ Atlanta after the orgmmwtion tWnk the ring ia omnipotent, and that the orpnuaUon . me planning of the ring. Will I. A. Ana ley continue to be candid, and aa he ha* ao free ly giyea bia own name to Ibo licentious dta- counea of the newspaper press, will he giro th6 dadios of th® prominent gentlemen from Atlanta who thought th© organization waa the plan of the ring? Mr. Ansley'aname, though in two syllable*. is not sufficient in jhie case. Let him name the person* npon wb«we credit he pnliliahee hie wily ecandei. Another question to Mr. Aneley: Mae be a priralo grieyanee to redress, or ia bis publication inspired by pore Iotc of Sonlhwoat Georgians? Mr Analey begs tho qaestion and now claims that be referred to Boalb and Southwest Geor gia in his Hist card. Mr. Analey may have meant Houlhweat Georgia, but bo did not say no —and when he aaid Son Hi of .Macon, any intel ligent wan would take it, that be meant south of the Macon line. Mr. Anslcy has pntbimsolf to oonaiderabln trouble to lot tho public know that be ia disaalisllod, hut tho members seem lo lie eatiafied with the appointment of oommittce*. It ia eery strange that Mr. Ansley should sng- gmt who abonld lie chairmen of important com mittees, or complain at appointment*, when he does not personally know more than thirty members of the Ilonso. If Mr. Aoaley desired to have a voico in tho appointment of committee*, ho abonld have been here at the proper time. Hie preaenoe and counsel would bay* doubtless been of great importance in tho arrangement of committees in both Homes. The readers of yonr paper can Tory readily discoyor Mr. Analey* object and tho cansoof hiawriUng. ‘Mzmuio.' A NrAKTI.IMi niM'Ofltsn. Wlial I lie t’lirlslnileliiliiana Hare linn* and What they I’rojmse. There is in Boston a little religion* sect, con cerning which a writer in the Post, of that city, «ay«: The Christ adoIpbUn* of Boston aro presided oyer by fonr brethren, oacb of whom takes bia tarn at sermonizing; and at 10} o'clock, when the door bad opened and closed on the last corner, a Mr. Whitehead, whose tnrn it we*, arose from hie seat on the stand, read a portion of the twelfth chapter of Hebrews, made a brief Imt fervent prayer, and began hi* disoonrae. Il« mid «br» if tho soul ,<mn Bnc “ _ +..j upon mo pages of inspiration ; tint when wo 0|itn th* book and tnrn over page after page, we find that on this qneation it aa dark and silent a* tho grave. Why is it ? It is often urged that immortality was so well known that there was no need of writing anything aliont it. But if there is anything in the human body which is immortal, then God placed it there; and if he placed it them he mnat or ought to have told us all nbont it. The faot is, the word “immortal," which ia ao often naed by the clergy and commented npon in sueh a manner that it would lead per sona to sup|Kise occurs on almost every page of the Bible, is really used hut onco from Genesis to BevelatioiM, end that is in Ibe 1st Epistle of Paul to Timothy, 17tb verse. “Unto the King, eternal, immortal, Invisible." Here it is ap plied lo God, end lo Him alone. Why, then, do men smart that Iboro are other l«iugs in the world that are immortal, and those being* men ? The word “immortality" occur* five times in the whole book, and it i* found only in the New Testament, in First Timothy, vi., 1C; Homans, ih, 7; First Corinthians, xv., J5o. It is not sin- gnlar that wo do not meet in Ilia Bible with snob lernis M “an immortal soul," “a never-dying son!,” etc., which wo hear everyday around na? Tho sum of Ihe discourse was that tlie Ron) is immortal, that the good and had are sleeping alike, and that tho punishment of the had is eternal sleep, anil the reward of the good eter nal Ufa from tho day of Ihe resurrection. All through tho sermon Ihe congregation was very attentive, and at each of tho frequent ref- ercuecs to tho Scriptures, neatly every one found the plaeo in Ins or her Bible, with the original Greek and Hebtcw text nnd Iho inter linear Iranalaliona. Yon oould bardly fail lo notion tho carefulness with which lino after line was underscored, and tho evidences of careful atndy that tho good hook Imre. Tho services closed with Ihe breaking of Iho linuid, nnd with a fooling half of regret you loft Iho home like ball anil Uin bome-liko sect. “Thara," aaid Iho gentleman iu black broad cloth, descending the stairway lo tho street, “ yon have aeon the ChristadelpUians." ••Yea," returned the writer, “nnd the expo rienoe Ilia been a pleasant one." “Glad lo hear it. Yon ace. tho peculiarities of the Chrialadclphians are, they take the Hilda aa their standard and nothing else; they start on the assninption that the Scriptnres, having Iwen written through divino inspiration, are in fallible, and if there are any faults or contra dictions in tho text they are owing to errors of the translators. The originals in Hebrew nnd Greek are perfectly in harmony throngliont. The Cbriaiadelphians believe that immortality is acquired aa a gift at Ibo resurrection lo those who believe Ibe Gospel and have been im mersed in bin name." To those who aro carious in matters of re ligion, who have wondered at the worship of the Thuggees of India, the dervishes of Persia, or the contortionist* of lines!*, who have noted the apparently endless variety of beliefs in the preaenl age, ami who are desirous of examining the claim* of all alike, tho ChrisladelphiniiH si Pythian Hall present many attractions. 'I liey are simple, earnest, devoted, accepting wlisi they nnderntaud to be tmo and rejecting that which they feel to bo erroneous, and they nr.- eonlldent that the doctrines which they uphold are destined to effect a revolution in in liters of theology. The concluding paragraph of this writer's sketch anggeata Hint tho atmosphere of Boston haa inspired the Cbrintadclphinna with tho ideas of Yankee thrift—thus: So Arm are they in their belief, indeed, that they offer a prize of $500 to any ono who will prove the inherent immortality of (lie soul of man by Ihe Holy Writ.

Over in Brooklyn there is a young girl who,I seven years ago was thrown from n horse, her back, if not absolutely broken, was at least so injured that her body ceased to perform its funotions, her heart ceased lo beat, and she was dressed for tbo grave; Imt shorn her face there lingered so lunch of life that her guar dian, an aunt, refused to allow her bnrial.
