soed by the reflection thai in doing 50, We do not
change ono ota ofthe principles which we have
been together disseminating and defending. Ifhe
Editors Of the Wing have been convinced OF HI.
error Of heir former course and in consequence of
This conviction, have repenied of and renowned
tler late associations, we have not ausht to snv
sanst their right 10 do SO, or Of the propre,y o.
exercising that right. But, they must excuse Us
ii lco cannol be convinced that we hive been in CT

they be such We cannot jump over the fence
with as much agility or friends Of the WIZ
