PATTERSONS CARD AGAIN. (r rom Free Will Baptist.)" In its issue or the 20th Inst, the Goldaboro Mail has the following card to the public : Here followed the card of IL A. Patterson in regard 'to Mrs. Sallie An drews. Personally we know nothing of this lady's piist life; we were introduced to her during a revival at Fremont, only kKOTftthul ahe was lutrodAoci to us U a member of the Society of Friends, a minister in cood Standinc; also, that she .hat preached in nuuy of our churches, that all who have been with and seen her, not only speak in her praise, but love her. Tho Holy Spirit seerus to hover over her congregations, and to accompany her worls carrying conviction to the hearts of the wicked. bringing them to the foot of the Crow. Wherever she has met with us, crifS of the penitent, and the glad shouts of new bon souls have been beard ; every church she has visited has been revived and built up. We also know that under her ministrations we have felt that Spirit within our own bosom, stirring up our heart to redoubled diligence in our Master's cause, and we bless the humble instru ment that has so benefitted us, what ever her past life has beea. . We regret the action of the uev. Mr. Patterson, and confess that we cannot see the necessity for such a step. She does not claim to be a member of his church, nor any authority to preach frocd the same. Then why this card, this unprovoked attack? She was, be sats. "expelled from his -church lico years ago tor lying, leaving and retus ing to live with her husband, and for attempted abortion," a A I he says "those charges were sustned." This may all be so, but does he contend that ahe is not a christian now Does it necessarily follow, that, because she was a sinner then she is now? Does the brother contend that site was guilty of the unpardonable sln,rand that there was now no sacrifice- for her? Does he contend that her heart was so loaded with guilt, that the Blood of Christ can never cleanse it ? Since the time, that the brother claims that she was expelled from his church, she has not oolyjbecn admit ted as a meml3er, by our Vethrcn, tho Friends, but has by them been author ized to preach the Gospel. Now, we don't for a moment suppose, that our sUter church would authorize a man or a woman, as vile as ho would have us believe her to be, to preach with their sanction, or by their authority any more than we wou'd believe his own church. Tney (ine strangers, but his own flock''; and they could with the same propriety pra-. nounce him an Impostor. We know that the brother Is no better that the great Apostle UU Genttlca and we sappose that It liiS brethren at Jerusa lem, had sent before htm to the cUIes he visited, a fe facts of his past re cord, he would jave been deemed an irapostcr, unworthy of the high posi tion he held n the esteem cf his breth ren. We rrmrraber on a certain occa sion, a r woman ' was brought .before,1 not a pewr, ' f Allen foaii liable it 'all times to err, but before the Immacu late Savior. Did lie condemn tliat re pentant soul as the. brother Las dune? No;; but with the blease! word, "Neither do I condemn thee: go and hiu no. more," she went on her way rejoicing in her new found peace. This brother has cast the first stone. Is lie without sin ? Is he more able to judgf her aright, than the church to thich she belongs, and by whose authority she proclaims the gospel? cs the brother claim that the moral status of his church is superior to that of the Friends ? Does he claim that a soul that is to day m sinner, or even sU-eped in crime, eannt in the space oitwo years bvcome, not only a child of God, but an humble disciple to proclaim his Gospel ? " Does the brother claim that, it takes oyer 2 years for the Blood of Christ to cleanse from all sin ? No, he knows that lit a twinkling of an eye, that it can and will make the guiltiest soul clean. The thief, upon the cross appealed to our Savior, after he receiv ed the promise, was ho a thief still? ! No ; for no thief can enter there. ' IFer the Mail. Tie Asia TuaHy. Then by what authority does the broth er still condemn her, after she hss joined another cnurch, and is pro claiming the Gospel ? Ciin liepro- nounce her the same to day, that she was two years ago ? We find by reference o our Bible, that we are not to judge, if we do, the same judgvment shall be meted out to us. God forbid that our brother should have the same judgement meeted out to him, that he has to this afflicted Hlrterv - - sj: Sv & ' m vJ ea'O'v r, gifted with sight, we could overlook the uncalled for asault ; but a lone woman, deprived of that greatest of earthly blessings, sight : we cannot close our eyes to such an assault, nor stop our ears to the afflicted, persecu ted and helpless. To attempt to throw a stumbling-block in te way of such a pne! Oh Charity, Angel from above I I last thou flown from the breast of man ? O Mercy, hast thou fled from Earth and returned to the bosom of thy Creator. In conclusion, we would say, wecae not what tho sister has been, or was two years ago, but for what she is at present, and we know by the fruit this tree bears; the immortal souls gathered through her instrumentality into the fold of her Redeemer; since she came among us,', those sightless eyes moved to tears by the fervor of her devotion, the radiant beams of light that flashes o'er her countenance from an overflowing heart, the love and zeal she has shown and her godly walk and conversation, proves that she has been with Illni. This it all we wish to know, and therefore with all due respect to the brother's position, and the evidence he has produced we say to our sister, God speed yau in your good work. Tilden and Bandall Again. It seems pretty well understood in the East that since Urn defection of Mr. Ilendricks, Mr. Tilden has concluded an alliance offensive and defeuslve with Speaker Randall.
