HENNEBERRY V. CHINIQUY.

(To the Editor). Sir,—Will you allow me through the medium of your pacer to mak> a few remarks on the speech made by Father Benneberry on Thurs day nigit in reference to the ex-pr e3t Clmnqny. Father Hennebeny'a speech is neither more nor less than a tissue of g.oes mis-statements, and in order that your readers may be able to judge for themselves, I wilt, with your knd per mission, lay before them a few facts from the life of M. Chici'viy--facts whi>-h anyone can find out to be t. ue if he only takes the trouble of making inquiry. M- Chiniquy, who is a French Canadian, was made a priest of the Church of Rom© in 1533, and for a period of twenty-five years he held that oihee in her pale. Daring that time, ho by his zeal and «uergy in the ca.uee of the Chnrcli rose to eminence, arid. had favours an<l wes^nts conferred on timoy the Pope of Rome. In ISSI, he was selected to take charge of the settlement of French Canadians in Illinois, U.S.; ard in a few years he persuaded 75 000 of his countrymen to settle there, _.bout that time >he Bishop of Chicago did a thing which compelled his countrymen to protest publicly against his conduct. The result was a hot discussion in the columns of the Press for nearly a year, at tho end of which M. Chiniquy collected all the documents connected With the case, sent copies of them to the Pone and the Emperor of the French, asking the former to appoint an inquiry, and soliciting the help of the latter at the Coi rt of Rome, in order that a Bishop who was a scandal to the Church might bo removed. An inquiry wan held—the result; was : 'I ho Bishop was found guilty and removed ; but from the active part, which M. Chiniquy took against him, he (M- Chiniquy) was suspected o£ a leaning to Pro tsstanism, and was required to sign a document to hi 3 Bishop showing that he was still a good Catholic." M. Chiniquy signed a document stating that he would obey his Bishop accordinqio the Word of God as he found it in the Gospel of Christ 'This did not suit a church where the authority and ''Holy Church' is placed above that of the word of God Use'f : and the result was that Father Cbiuiquy left the Church of Rome. So much for the " unoriestly conduct" which Fattier Henr.eberry stated on Thursday night was the cause of the expulsion of Chiniquy from the Roman Catholic Church, :<ather Ohmiquy had lon- studied the word of God, and he came to see the wide gulf that separated tiie f teach ing of the Komish Church troui that or the Bible -ana when he left the pale of that Church he took with him not two or three hundred bnt one thousand, and his countrymen ;_ and twelve months after that the numbtr had increased to four thousand; and to-day .heir aro twenty five thousand whom he has been enabled, by «nd'q blessing, to bring from darkness into SrtTt sSe he left the Church of Rome i f L, been subjected to increasing per- Bower tolflencc him, but the history of these fiS°S °i£ s?-*: AT& was that the witnesses confessed that they had been told lin the confessional tp swear falsely. Father Chiniquy was acquitted, and the priest sentenced to fifteen years in gaol for perjury. Theso are facts which can be proved to be true, and all the efforts of Father Henneberry will never be able to turn wrong into right. That day night ? Is it manly or fair to blacken a man s Character behind his back when he has no <>hance of replying? This is what Father HenneberVhas done to M. Chiniquy and I leave your readers-Catholic or non-Catholic to say whether it is an action becoming the pro fessing follower of Him. "who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth,1 —I am, etc., Truth.

(To the Editor.) SIR,—You deserve the thanks of this com munity for the full report you have given of Father Henneberry's remarks on the ex-priest Chiniquy. Some of these, referring to the opinion in which he is held by the Protestants of Canada and the States, can be refuted here on the spot. There are those in Auckland who have known him personal y for the last fifteen years, and can bear testimony tp his ueeful labour and irreproachable character. I came across, a few days ago, an account of the meet ing held by the Presbyterian Assembly of Canada previous to Chiniquy's leaving that country, and I find that body passed the lollow iner resolution at the close of the Pastor s addressi: "The General Assembly, having listened with the greatest interest to theaddres3O| the Rev. Pastor Chiniquy, instructs the Moderator to convey to him the thanks of the Court. The General Assembly feels the deepest interest in the labours and mission of the Rev. Pastor Chiniquy in connection with the Presbyterian Church in Canada; cordially commends him and his work to the great Head of the Ohurch, and also to the prayers and liberal sympathy of all ministers, office-bearers, and congregations of the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales." With this credential he proceeded to Sydney, mainly v/ith a view to recruit his health. I see by a Sydney paper he was well received; his credentials accepted ; and lum seW treated with all the honour and regard due to a fellow-labourer in the cause of Christ and of religious freedom. I rejoice to hear that it is likely Pastor Chiniquy will visit New Zealand on his return to Canada. He is well able to take charge of his own ; eputation, and will, I doubt not,be able to give an open and complete refuta tion to the slanders which have been hurled against him.—Yours, &c , A Pbotestakt.

To the Editor: Sir,-I read a letter in your Satur day's impression over the signature of L. Four nier, re the much-abused Father Chiniquy, a^d I have no intention to thiDk otherwise of the ex- Father until 1 have the pleasure of seeing him and hearing bis disc'osures, when he comes here; but it is a well-known fact that converts from any sect or religious body are more enthusiastic in their utterances and denuncia tions of the religion which nursed them into manhood, and afterwards perhaps position— whether lay or clerical—than the most bigoted man in the land, who perhaps rightly lives in the religion he waa born in; and this common practice is the only offence Mons. Chiniquy perhaps has fallen into. Then why make much ado about nothing, as it is a common thing on all sides every day in the year? As a counter balance to the many seceders from the Catholic Church, I would advise Mr Fournier to read the " Whitehall Keview," London, containing a list of nearly five hundred names, converts to the Catholic Church, every one of whom occupy the highest and most honoured positions in England; and not the least conspicuous are the names of the various dissenting ministers; these names aie also copied in the Dublin " Freeman's Journal" of October, sth ult.—l am, dear sir, yours, " Cavour." [We have several other letters on the same subject and on Father Henueberry's mission. —Ed. E.S.J
