In the Anti-Slavery meeting: held IN the
Baptist VesIy in this village on Thursday,
after H. 6. Wright had been calling things
by their right names, to considerable extent,
Professor Hascall, who was present, arose
and protested against the tenunciatory char
aeter of his language. Iu his view there
was no more of the spirit of christianity in
this denouncing than there was in man
stealingt This is what should call
denouncing of denunciatior with marvel
| lous consistency!
This is not noticed BY way Of complain
ing Of the Professor for denouncing H. G.
Wright IF he thinks he ought to be denounc-
ed-but to show that the Professor stands
condemned out Of his own mouth, when he
complains of others for using denunciaton,
and then turns right about and goes TO de-
nouncing others in the strongest possible
terms-using himself The most odious and
excep1ioaable weapons which he complains
of others for using.
The Professor would not Join the Anti
Slavery ranks with such men in it as Fl. C..
Wright, because such language as he used
did great harm 10 the Anti Slavery cause.
His virtual concession was, that The Anti
Slavery cause was of God. But lie would
not identify himself with it, because such
men as H. c. Wright were in it. He would
not obey God, and do his duty until H. c.
Wright was out of the way ] do not say
these were his words. But This is the posi-
ton he occupied. The fire is consuming
my dwelling, and call on Prof HascalI TO
aid in quenching 1t, and saving my wife aud
children who are enyeloped 10 the flames.
But he will not lift finger until will FIRST
stop H. c. Wright and drive him from my
premises! The Professor will not work
with man who throws on wafer with such
vebenence- SCATTERING & spelling the coats
Of elergymen and honorable men who get
in his way rushing into the flames and
rescuing my wife and children at once, with
out stopping TO pay compliment to Doctors
Of Divinity, Priests or Levi.es who are
looking on and finding fault with those who
are efficiently at work.

The genius of the world is inventive.
To this fact, the variety Of screens for i'm.
morality it has wrought out, bear ample
testimony. Moral evil loyeth moral mid

The simple reason is, the devil outwilted
