The public May thus have seven or seventy lima ieies *6 important docu. meats" offered to their Consideration, al evidences of culpability imputable to gg the Secietaries" in '4l suppressing information :"—and when the false hood of the charge is established, instead of apology from the publisher of calumny, the rublic are to be told,' as in the Man of this morning, that the charge was merely gill misfaie, and nothing more : that it was aholly accidental and unintentional 1"—In addition to this we may also be told that their charging II the Secretaries" with what was unfounded 44 EVIDENTLY rhesus an unwitting:, unpremeditated error on the part of the Editor"-s-for, 44 the result of the correction is— the diffusion of the guilt of suppression over a larger portion of men linked in these proceedings I" What is this but to calumniate in wholesale, in the same I I breath with' which the Meer affects to be correcting 1 ,, a mistake." It may be necessary to state, that the preceding quotations are from an article with which the Times of this morning prefaces the subjoined letter from the Secretaries to the Protestant Society for the Protec tion of Religious Liberty, to the Editor of that paper. The purity of the sonrte whence the flood of calumny flows, with which the friends of Religious Liberty are threatened to be inundated, may be judged from the frankness and candour with which the Editor has thus acknowledged his 66 anon:doss: unpreinataied error 1" and from the deep contrition he has thus expressed for his unintended calumny. To suspect the motives of any person who in his strictures, on so trivial a subject as the killing of a few Hogonott, exhibits so much candour and pliihin thropy, might savour of illiberality : we shall there fore only reinat k that is M. M. of the Committee," /Ice. is a most convenient mode of address when cer. rain purposes are intended to be answered ; for no thing more is necessary than to say that 46 M. M." means 44 the Secretaries" of any particular Society— to connect this wit'a mud, some of which may chance l to stick; and then, by way of recantation, to'state, that is M. M." his no such narrow meaning, but ehabraces—whoever else thy may wish to inaplicats in 66 the guilt of suppression." The mistake which has been in frankly icknow., lodged by the Tunes, and the manner in which the acknowledgment has been made, serves to explain the sotiree of the communication—though not intend- 1 ' ed. The itithority which. procured the writing of the letter 'lined 66 MARON," could easilt furnish the copy ; and it May be easily conceived that the ac companying iastructiods were, owing possibly to a defect of grammar, or some other cause, misunder stood by the Editor of the 'limes. That M. MA ROW was enjoined to write the letter by some. zuthotity which he durst not oppose, we have a right to conclude, from its contents standing in diametri; cal opposition to another letter of his own, ad dressed to a friend of his own, in which he assures him that the efforts of the Committee of Dissenting Ministers had caused a strong sensation in Paris; that he expected by then - perseverance they would produce very beneficial results; and that he was tenderly and. gratefully impressed by them. The plain inference is that M. MAIION wrote his public letter under the * direction of the police—the private one from his own Motion.—We have only to state farther On this point, that the priitate lettek was brought before the public in a monthly journal oh the Ist instant—that is, he fOre the appearance of the public letter. When deal ing with some men, it ii necessary to state such a fact, that they may not charge others withforgint, as well as suppasins, documents, to serve a particular puts pose.
