Excerpt from A Second Appeal to the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Oxford: On the Divinity of the Tract Writers My Lord, That which I predicted so recently as the 10th of last April, respecting the improbability of the Tract writers being silenced by the admonition of your Lordship, which many had vainly imagined would be the case, has already, I grieve to say, and though already, yet not sooner than I had anticipated, come to pass. It is true that Tract 90 has been nominally suppressed; it is true that Mr. Newman has, by no published writings of his, since taken part in the discussion. But have none of the other editors and writers of the Tracts taken up the subject, and defended not only their views in general, but this very Tract in particular? Mr. Ward of Balliol College has published no less than two pamphlets, bearing on their title pages, with an honesty that cannot be too highly commended, however much the purpose may be deplored, "in support of No. 90 of the Tracts for the Times." In the latter of these he defends himself from a strong remonstrance he had received respecting the former, "on the ground of its running counter to the judgment" of your Lordship, and at the same time explains away the commonly understood force of that judgment by contending that "nothing surely can be more pointedly irrespective of the doctrine of the Tract" than it is. The Tract may be "objectionable," he conceives, upon various grounds, as "the time of its appearance," or "the manner of its advocacy," but its doctrine is not presumed to be the cause of its "objectionableness," and accordingly he has once and again defended the doctrine which in his view has not been objected to. Mr. Keble, as a Professor of the University of Oxford, has, with equal ingenuity, got rid of the judgment of the Board of Heads of Houses.
