With few except Ions oue ticket is tvs giHwl as the other. When we received the intclli gentle of Mr. Spurgeon's death few mouths since, in a short edito rial in the WKsrr Side we felt like ctvsting sprig of actwiaon his grave. and In doing so we Incidentally sanl iliat ".Mr. pduiuisjh was an open comninulouist," meauing that he admitted all Christians to the table of tho Lord, whether they were Jlaptists or not, and at the same time believing Unit Mr. Hpttr geon would not practice one thing and ut the same time believe nuoth er thing contrary to bis practice, Tho t'ollowini week l!ev. A. J Hunsakcr, pastor of tho First Uap list church of this cit v, took us to task for saying that Mr. Hpurgoou ii tti unionist,", and asked ns for tho proof. At that moment we could not lav onr hands upon tho direct Statements of the great preacher which led us to our conclusions, and several brief aititiles ftnea then haveap pcarediii the WjwtSidk pro aut eon, relative to tuts mailer. iow it seems that the same controversy lias arisen In other sections of our country touching tho same points. We irive In-low an editorial from tho XtuhriHe Ailvoctiti, by Dr. H.iss, whom we have known personally trom boyhood, in reply to Dr. Smith of Nashvillu, whom we also know ind Mr. Ilennett we knew in the .Suiinv Honlh before ho began his pulpit wot k, his brothers ami sis tcrs.hnvinjr attended our school in Arkansas when we wore cugnget; n the art of pedagogy. These gen tinmen are wholly reliable, uu scholars of the first degreo, " We IVM'l .ii, rf editorial pardgrapb from the IMiyiimn Tilmiep!t pub lished at Dayton, Ohio, and edited bv I. L. Kiharf, I), D all of which go to show that our first Uatcment was absolutely correct. We might make other extracts, which we now have at our disposal, but the following we think suffi cient. Mr. Spurgeon's letter to Mr. Henuett shows conclusivelythat the "limitat ion" was not placed be cause of baptism, but only to pro vent an irresponsible class of people from forming in his curch, and that when such persons gave good reasons that such was not tho case, then they were allowed to come to the table of the Lord whenever they so do sired, without being "imiimisc.d," or not beinir baptised at all, in tho "sense" as 10 what constitutes bap tism as held by tho American Bap tists, or even Mr. Bpurgeon. . A truly Christian experience was tho great prerequisite necessary to gain admission to tho holy eucha ristas aJmbiiHteredby Mr, Spur- goon. ,we are picitscu to see sucn Christian spirit pervading these points of difference of opinion. Hero wo rest, at least for tho present; and following will be found several excerpts bearing, on this subject, probably tho most impor tant of which is Mr. Spurgeon's own statement of what his views were! In our Issue of February 2(1, leaklntt of tho "Convention of I toptist Workers" which had then recently met iu this city, we said: 'Mr. bpurgeon was fitly etilogtred, We do not blame our brethren for counting him and making much of him, though with his views and practice ou the sutyeet of Often communion, them is not A Bap tist church in the United States that would have received him luto fellowship," To this statement our good friend and brother, Dr.' W. It L. Smith, pastor of tho First Itaptlst church of this city, oiyccUHl, and wrote for publication iu the vtieociM a brief nolo containing tho following para graph: Ttiooiwn oiimramitiiti of Mr. HttrKn itemled to tlirw maim ouly.to Ui Mitt niilm.lunl.

W felt sure at the time that Dr. Smith's information wan incorrect) but aa wo could not at once put our hands on the proof, we kept silent. The delay hits hurt nobody, V ar now ready to make answer. Iu March, 1881), Itev. Dr. Z. T. Ben nett, editor of the Arkanmu JfWAo- ift who had a hubitof going to first iurets for iuformatlott, wrote to .Mr. spurgeou as tbllowst I inolmm tmta oar pvtt tit rftt , .V'ttmUtt, qtiiitnttoit ullrlbultd It) ymi, mill kImi n litorll UrUy, tl mull ot jrtiti Ih brnlhurl klmliiwu n i'nie iu writimtfo Ij prtuttxl tusltw lor my una, Jitvt wbt tmr pruollcw in in tl msttur ot Inrilitiu ulbwra tu txno mitninn tn yunrohnrvtii wbelbor thu prt tiles Is ItmiliHl lit Mire or drjlnit umulwr ut tlaiMk This inquiry brought from ' Mr. SpurgtHtn a prompt and courteous reply, of date May 13, 1Ss9. We publish it iu full, underscoring certain lint which have a special ttearing ujtou the poiut at issue. Here it is: Menitinnt of ulbttf Otiriatinn oborolimi itm wrlo. niMl K lb Loitl't Ubl willi n m vtniteni: bul If lby teitn IttiM, II wuul.l l rt(Hr la inquire why tbny nrtIM lo wiintiip with lltvir awn I'bureh.

This makes it clear Unit Mr. Spurgetui had no thought of de manding imtuersiou as A coudltiou of Christian fellowship. The only reason why he raised any question concerning strangers that cnino re peutedly to the Imi's table in his congrgntioii wits Noaiwe he did not wish to encourage a sort of spiritual vagrancy. This is his own statement, ami ought to lie ac cepted as fluid. The theory maintained by our American Ilaptists covers and in cludes two jHiiuts: first, nothing but immersion Is baptism; secondly, none but the Immersed tiny tometo to the tableofthe I-ord. Assenting the first point, Mr. Hpurgeon denied the second. His practice, therefore, was perfectly cuiisistent with his theory. But if he had adopted the plan of communing "three times only" with utilm mersed ls-llevers, then he would have involved himself in inextri cable coutiwlictiomii a thing al most iniMisil)lo to a man of his ro bust common sense. ''Such how ever was so the fucK" All this with perfect rtieet and greut good will to Dr. Smith, who is a most delightful Christian, and with whom we hope to "sit down In the kingdom of God." It would please ns greatly if he and his brethren could consistently relax their terms o( communion, so as to take in all who "hold the Head;" but we do not dream of calling in question their sincerity, nor shall we allow their seeming excliisivcness to abate our interest in them, or our love for them. We keep a warm place in our hearts for every man that is loyal to Jesus Christ and seeking lo lead an up right life. yanhrillii Adponilf, April 7, ISO!.
