will put it down.
Will not Mr.. Writ assist in doing what he SAYS
ought to be donef Certainly he will Mr.. Miners
object, in commenting upon garbed extracts ta-
ken from Mr. Wits letter, is too obvious to escape
detection from the most careless observer. If he
succeed in sowing the seeds of dstrus in the Anti
masonic ranks and destroy that harmony and concert
of action which have heretofore characterized the
party, the result will be glorious indeed He is
making of that "arrangement' of which he ac-
us, effect this honoura6e and desirable object
But it wont do brother Charles, you cannot succeed
with all your "Masonc jugglery and zvondervOOrk-
eyinge."
Mr.. Miner SAYS "We are anxious to Law the whole
letter of Mr. Writ before readers It's truly ex,
ccllent. The National Republican, we understand
will give it entire We hope friends will crcu-
late it far and wide. What rebuke to persection
We, in Chester county, though much prosecuted
and abused, took ground more than year ago, more
Anti-mason-ic, far, than Mr.. Writ does now"
Mr.. Writ, after recapitulating briefly but compre-
hensvely the principles Of the Anti-masonc party,
lpontedly unequivocay, and explicitly says, "These
understand are your principles, and moth
ling in them which does not commend them to every
man whose mind and heart sounds for there can be
no question among reasonable men, that in free gov
ernment like ouas, the constitution and laws are our
only sovereign; that the peace, order, prosperity and
happiness of our people depend the steady, faith
full and effectual administration of our laws and that
any secret society," which by the force of mysterious
eaths and obligations and by the extent of its comb
nations seeks to disturb the action of those laws ia
set them at defiance, to ride and control them to
usurp the government, to hold the lives, peace and
Happiness of society at their mercy, and to establish
reign of terror the initiated and the unnitiated
is political monster, as fearful as the Invisible Tribu-
nal Of Germany, the Inquston of Spain and ought
to be extirpated without delay, by the of all the
lncaceable means which the constitution and laws Of
i our country furnish"
We do without hesitation, challenge Charles Miner
TO produce or exhibit any language that ever dropped
lfrom his torpxe or pen, which is so decidedly Anti
masonic as this extract from Mr.. Wirt's communca
ttion Has MIR. Miner ever said that the "principle
t1aapn Go rnnt
lnf n sound mind and heart" Never Has he evel
lsaid that s'NfASONRY WAS APOLITICAL MON
lister AND OUGHT TO BE EXTIRPATET
WITHOUT DELAY5" Never! We again cha!
Anti-nasonry, as Mr. Writ has here presented to tn
; world,
IN the Gazette & Watchman" of the 9TH inst, will
he found the "Noodic's" response.
North America has been the receptacle of man
Ian Enngrant, who left his native country, for hi

evc, that such has been the with the dacent ger
lteman, whose scrbb'ing has elected those remarks
No person in perusing the communication alluded t.
will hesitate to ascribe to its author, casfe inagns
lton, hrof5u1,d mind and much religious sensblit!
