done, going directly and indirectly, as all
can see, to make the impressions on the |
minds of his readers. which alleged they
would make, legitimately and necessarily. |
He has attempted only single denial and (
in that shall show aim to be altogether
unsuccessful. Why does he not make full
and specific deniaIs. Simply because he
dare not, knowing that the proof stands
against him. Whether those sayings and
doings of his were calculated TO make the
impressions which say they are calcu-

should not be disappointed if thesame piece
from which he extracts this sentence,
should be found, on examination, 10 con-
tain full refutation OF what this sentence
contains, two or three times told. Why,
it is no task at all for the Editor of the
Chronicle to unsay his own sayings-to
undo his own doings-to face ABOUT occa-
sionally and go backwards, for tie sake Of
showing his face the contrary way from
what he is going, and leading on others.
Take, for instance, his connection with
slavery. l charge it upon him that he is
one of the most hurfuI apologies Of slave
holders and slavery He of course denies
the charge, pronounces it false, and calls
on me to sustain or retract it, proceed to
specify numerous. sayings ard dongs
of his--Ike his sturdily defending
the christianity and piety of those who do
these dilbolicaI works his maintaining
that under some circumstances slavery is
not sinful, &c, &c.--ah which tsay abund-
antIy sustains my charge. Blu: at This
: point the Editor finds and brings forward
a single sentence from some Of his writ,

that he " is not among those who apollo
gize for sIavery.'t After he has done so
wonderful thing as this, there is moth

Chronicle that, after skulking away from
his own readers, he has come 10 the wrong
! place, when he comes to the readers of the
Telegraph to make a single disavowal Of
his stand against general course of his
to the contrary.
He says -" The Chro"icle never en-
dorsed President Beecher's views, to
which you refer but has twice distinctly
expressed its dissent" r. "twiee" "dis-

let us see what his twice dissenting
amounts to. He copied single para

A principal thing done in that paragra phi
was to rank together "the doctrines ofthe
Perfectionists, Non Ressstants, deists, aths-

Editor of the Chronicle follows this para.
