ing the Telegraph had been closed against
in saying this unqualifedly he
violated the truth-than to avail himself of
everything that belonged to him, on the score
of justice and the ground of fair discussion.
The Editor of the Journal is the wrong man
to NEEDLE with matter of this kind, in this
way, after taking the liberty TO cut out and
reject from the Journal as much of an arti-
Gle from brother Churchill as would expose
Joseph Freeman in certain shameful trans
action, and publishing the remainder - and
after. rejecting from the Journal communi
cation from brother J. K. Wright Of Corn
wall, exposing the corruption of the Com
mittee, in getting up the Journal. -->-. ..
The Editor Of the Journal says:
"He THE Editor of the Telegraph speaks
of private conversation between him and
ourself.s will only say that the language
he represents me as using respecting the
committee, is not the language used. He
appears to be conscious Of this, as by leaving
off the proper marks of quotation be has left
a loop-h hole for retreat. For our own part
we do not regret this report Of our converse
tion,-it has impaired volumes OF instruction
to US respecting the man we have TO deal
with" ~ ~ ~. = ~-@
Nothing can be more Instructive TO one
inclined, by propensities, by moral and re-
ligious training, and by situation and en-
ployment, to fraud and foul dealing, than to
be treated with frankness and Christian f.
deity. As for the "priVate conversation"
it will be recollected that the illusions 10 it
have come along in this way the E. itor
of the Journal, in his introduction Of the,
matter now going on, accused me of having
circulated " false & slanderous charges -
but without pointing them out, although |
had been specific with my charges, and had
accompanied them with my proofs. In re-
ply to his accusation thus presented, | stated
that he and had recently had "personaL
|'conYersation together" and asked why he
did not then point them out to me, if he
designed to be Gan honest, faithful Chris
tian brother" He followed with dark insin-
uatfons about the "private" conversation,
without specifying. followed, and speci-
fed. He skuIks away into the dark again,
and says have not given the "language
used" Why did he not give il, if he could?
And if he could not give the language, why
did he not give the idea, or deny that had
given il? He has not denied that have
given the idea, and dare not, unless he dare
add to the already frightful catalogue Of his
falsehoods. Idid not undertake TO give the
exact words, because they were not taken
down at the time. They were not taken
down, because l did not anticipate any oc-
casion for using them. The idea was the
thing with me. This gave faithfully, and
he knows it, 1t exposed his duplicity his
! employers. This tergifersation and sham
denial is to cloke himself before them. II
they choose TO be satisfied with it, it is their
own affair. They, will doubtless overlook
| it, and thus add TO the evidence going tc
show the true strength Of the rope which
binds, up sectarianism. Ii union for covering
up sin can be made strong, then doubles.
they will feel strong in themselves. But
ltell them their counseIs shall yet be carried
headlong. Inasmuch as he has said so mucl
about the "prirdte" conversation-and We
dare not make specification on one singh
point touched with dark insinuations =
