Charles Congdon, Tribune Essays: Leading Articles Contributing to the New York Tribune from 1857 to 1863. (ed. Horace Greeley), The great Rogersville Flogging. (search)
The great Rogersville Flogging. we gave the other day the First Chapter in the History of the Great Flogging behind the Second Presbyterian Church in the town of Rogersville, Tenn.--a flagellatory event which will hereafter secure for that edifice, heretofore humble and unknown, honorable mention in ecclesiastical annals. We showed how the boy of Netherland--Deacon of the church aforesaid, and colonel of some regiment, the number and arms of which are to us unknown — was properly chastises to the Presbyterian Church, might have hoped for a little mercy — a little mollifying recollection of the old times — a little yielding to gentle reminiscences. But the spirit of Netherland was up. Here was the Second Presbyterian Church in Rogersville rocking to its foundations, to say nothing of the blessed structure of our political institutions, which was vibrating in the most alarming manner. So Netherland smothered his emotions and sternly subdued the promptings of pity, and determine<

e interpreted will depend upon what kind of Christianity Mr. Pierce refers to. The truth is that there are several varieties now in vogue; and when presidents write upon theological subjects, they should be careful to let us know to which particular kind they are alluding. If Mr. Pierce in the above elegant extract referred to the new Christianity invented by the Dr. Rosses, expounded by the Rev. Brownlows, and practically exemplified sometimes behind the Presbyterian meeting-house in Rogersville, Tenn., why then the meaning of the sentence is as plain as a pike-staff. That is the Christianity which animates our nationality, and is too much the all-pervading principle of our laws --a Christianity which does not let the oppressed go free; but which chases them with blood-hounds, or with the hardly milder myrmidons of the law; a Christianity which, if it does not sanction, fails to rebuke, adultery, cruelty, and one great continuous theft of the earnings of the poor. But if Mr. Pierce

that of an impious one, while a lively faith improves his personal appearance --plerophory being followed by pingniosity, and solemnity by sleekness. But the species of religion admired and cultivated in North Carolina, and especially in Rogersville, Tenn.,--where the sweet-souled Colonel Netherland. gave his negro that beautiful basting behind the church, which, through these columns, has passed into history — this species is one which Father Ludovico does not appear to fancy. He clearly hntempt. And what Father Ludovico is doing, the Abbe Olivieri is also doing at Naples, for the negresses, so that when Africa is christianized, it seems highly probable that it will be done rather after the fashion of Rome, than the fashion of Rogersville, in the State of Tennessee. We know that it is exceedingly wrong, although not quite so unpopular as it was two or three years ago, to say one word in praise of the Roman Church, or in extenuation of its alleged errors. But, whatever may b
