Mr. Editor: In your issue of 13th inst., 1 have a communication over the signature of “Interested," in which I had reference to Rev. W. A. llouck. From what you say in nu editorial in the same issue, in reference to a Missionary, the impression lias gone forth ill some portions of the Church, where Bro. Houck is not well known, that he is an invalid, or a broken-down minister—which is far from being true. Interested. We am sorry, anil regret it ex ceedingly, that such “an impression” was made by what we wrote. We saw Brother Houck at Synod, and are convinced, that there is no just cause for such “an impression.” But he will soon prove to the Church, when he enters ilium his agency in liebalf of Newberry College, that he is a laborer that needeth not to be ash a nii'd, and we are confident that all to whom he appeals for aid to establish this institution, so neces sary and indispensable to tbe Church, will feel that be is a strong and a very strong man, for he will not allow any man to say him: Nay. The Sanctum. I’eter, James anil John have had another of their imaginary conversa tions, that does not remind us of Walter Savage, Landor. Tbe Lu theran Vititor furnished them several topics of discussion, and, considering the spirit of the three high priests of the American Sanctum, fared nut so badly as it was; though sneered at, not abused. But let our readers judge for tlieinsolves: John—Those Southern brethren are an interesting people, however. I understand the Southern General Synod has adopted all the Symbol- ical Books, ami therefore they stand on the same doctrinal basis with the Missourians, aud Iiuttalunians, and the General Council. And yet, in their practice, they totally disregard the so-called “Fonv Points,” which the Missourians, lUiftalouians, and Geoend Council men so inucll insist on. One of these points is, that no Symbolical laitheran can exchange pulpits with a minister of another denomination ; another |miut is that none but I.utliermiK of the Hymliol- ieal sort are allowed to come to their communion table. These are totally disregarded by them, as you ran six- by two consecutive |uiragraphs in Brother Rude's paper, of the Oth inst. Just listen to this, Dr. liiftle writes from Slicpherdstow ii, Va. : “Yesterday was a glorious day in my chtireh. We had the Holy Hop per, and around the altar kneeled, with the Lutherans, German Re formed, Methodists, Isith North and Mouth, PresbyteriuuA, anil Epfact>pa- linns. I received by ooofiruiatiorisix interesting young (ample. In look ing over my record, 1 find that iu the short time of iny sojourn here (20 months) 1 added KIXTY TWO to my membership. I try to give Jeans Christ the glory." dame*—'There is certainly not much symbolism iu this. The Hyinladical Rooks “condemn all those who teach otherwise," nml it would !*• absurd to say that German Reformed, Mctli odists, Presbyterians, mid Kpiseo|ia bans all teacii the same doctrine* as they are taught iu the Symbolical Books. Peter—All this shows tliat men can lie better than tile principles they profess, ami hence we hImhiIi) judge men more by their practice than their profession. And just . herein is where the Missourians are so uncharitable. As Siam as a Synod professes to have adopted the whole of the Symbolical Books, they ex|xs-t that Synod to curry out in practice all that those I took* teach, to the very jot and tittle, and if this is not en forced, they denounce such a Synod as un-Lutlieniii and liyjaieritical. dame*—l must give the .Misaotui- aaa right in this thing; for what etui la- more alisurd than publicly to pro fens » system of doctrines and then practically disregard them. If I have adopted the Symlmlical Books as my doctrinal basis, 1 should feel bound to carry out their teachings to the very letter ami spirit. John—1st me read you another paragraph from Bro. Rude’s piqier, illustrating the interehange of pul pits in the South. (Reads.) “ Dedication. A la-at frame church, 25 by ;«» feet, at Hermitage, Augusta County, Va.. was ihslie.it is I on the 18th of July lust. It was built by the Lutherans and Metho dists for their joint use. The former *o have the first and third, and the latter tin* second ami fourth Suit- baths of each mouth, (hi tbe day of dedication, one liuudrtxl ami ninety- one dollars were raised, which covers the entire indebtedness. This i-hnreh is iu the' charge of Rev. ('. Heard." ■lame*—What a gem of a little church this must lie. 25 by.111! not much kirgtff than our saiictaiu. And yet two denominations, Methodist* and Lutherans, expect to worship harmoniously together there. Veter-—Despise not the ilay of small things. There may Is- more good accomplished in that little ehnreh, Ilian in the largest and most magnificent cathedral. Those uppci rooms ill which the early Christians. used to assemble I presume were not as targe an this little church. Anil the house of Mary in which tlie j Church assembled to pray for the deliverance of Peter, 1 supjHisc had no room as large as Bra. Beard's church. Peter is evidently the ts-st one of the lot—lie has more charity than cither John or James ; but the truth i is, the America!< Lutheran dor* not J understand, ami it therefore aumiex-t* : anil often misrepresent* us. Nor can it act otherwise. Tl»r inner life, which may tie called the mind, the ( heart and the soul of the Chureli, is i nothing to it. All that it regards, j all that it esteems and values, is tlu- outward appearance, the external action, that which Lx heard ami seen - by men. Doctrine* are nothing to i it; measures, every thing. To the ! Lutheran Vititor doctrines are cvery- i tiling; measure.-., only of Hecoinlary I import. It holds fast to the Confes sion anil the interpretation of it found iu otlier Hymbols; but conecrnitig measures, it teaches that every age, every nation, and each individual clmreli in our connection, is at lull ■liberty to adopt such ns an- liest | calculated to accomplish the end iu view, nnd to n-jix-t whatever is uti suitable. Doctrines are divine; meas ures, human. We ls-long indeed as Lutherans to the Church u|s>stolic and universal, both as regards doe trine* anil usage. A* Ip the former, the church ha* always, been agreed —hence the (Ecumcual Creed* and the A ugustaua; ns to the latter, it has always exercised the utmost freedom from restraint, which the history of the church proves satis factorily. This is the ]>o»itiou wc occupy, nml this makes us a true and faithful disciple of Luther. To him iloctrinca were fuiidmm-ntal anil essential; usages, ini'iisures, non- essential. As to the word of God, the “thus saith the I/ird,” the teach ings of the Prophets and the Ajsw- tlcs, lie tolerated no deviation, and permitted no compromise; neither do we. As to usages, measures, forms, and ceremonies, he granted the fullest liberty, nml was indeed a thorough, new-mensnre man. This is our position; this is the |K>»ition of onr General Synod, mid in ]>erfeet aeeordnnce with our rule of faith and practice ns laid down in our Book of Worship. We, “the Southern breth ren," hnve one Lord, one faith, nml one baptism. We require in essen tials, unity-; we giant In non-e*ential*, liberty-; we practice in nil things, charity. We treat onr weaker breth ren with forliearnm-e; we receive him that is weak In the fotth, bat not to doubtful disputations. We require that all men should honor the Son a* they honor the Father, iu all places, in the chureli, the school house, the dwelling, the busy mart, the o|H‘ii Held.
