LORD JOHN RUSSELL.

TO THE REV. JABEZ BUNTING.
that '
REV. being currently reported in this city t°,l'.. fi4p
are actively canvassing, either personally or by letter, °loot
Parker, in opposition to Lord J. Russell, permit me t°
you a few observations.
I admit, Sir, that you have an undoubted right to IP'
the gentleman whom you conscientiously believe the %toe
however you may by that support, as in the present logoespecially,
especially, overlook the immense debt of gratitude will°
as a Wesleyan preacher, owe to his Lordship.
You are, Sir, an influential member of the Wesleyan 101
—I was going to say, you were almost pre-eminent' 050.
ought you, Sir, to use that influence on the present oc diof
Was not Mr. Stephens suspended or dismissed for atten,or
political meeting? If one preacher be dismissed or sulritl
uioe
for being a partizan, think s,ou that your present Pt's ti
will screen you ? No , Sir ; even handed justice Obstsivve
place. Have not the preachers, generally, wisely
af
tit
from interfering in politics, judging- it best so to do r repel
multifarious opinions of their people ? Is it wise in thei leP
wlnt
distracted state of our society to sow fr,9sh seeds of di? ti ' Orr;
to rend further the affections of the peopie ? The Snelcebef°
is standing on a volcano ; let me entreat ot" you to P.
bale
you cease an explosion. .f vett ,ce
Exercise, by all means, your privilege of voting,
a vote, as an individual, but do not endeavour to /ohire'ig
others. But, Sir, if you are not an elector of 13°.'',,°t of tjjo
deem it highly reprehensible in you to'travel so far °;,,rtYr"ths
way for the purpose of quixoting in support of thlt„,ries (;',.efr

Wesleyan Methodists. I know them to deserve that c
cry
if you do not. star° TV
Do you imagine that you will succeed in yourllll,l% t.
ass
sade to oust Lord John Russell? I say you "dd
Wesleyan Methodists can never forget the year it 001
my Lord Sidmouth brought in a Bill that would °° -er "ea

into a law, have utterly destroyed the Society. stebilst
it be forgotten by them who so generously, so nolll7'liod *fair
them, who so triumphantly fought their battles. jerly e'es°
memory retains her seat, and gratitude be not ut `iidser,
guished, the name of Russell will be ever dear. r or" ocl

although they did not affect our body in the same s t
they did the other Dissenters, yet on many occasioi °co

You are a highly useful preacher. Employ, let Ineb:ifis eper•
the great abilities the Lord has given you in yor„ itota ad,
