gods with such cquanimi;y OF temper that II would
be quite impossible Tor reciprocae such bOying

this discussion any portion OF it, into the arena OF UNI
calledfor personalities We endeavored constantly to
keep the question dorn to the lere OF our writing desk
and within the reasonable circle of calm and dispas
sioate inquiry hoping that those who would come for
ward in defence of Mr. Pituan's system-and not Mr..
Pitman himself, whom we never brought personally
within the circle OF our remarks-would follow US in the
same path
And now. what has Mr. Boyle one of tho two only
accredited agents OF Mr. PitInan done

And other similar baloon.likc words, phrases and

Is this the oft treating scientific questions
Is this the temper and style in which Mr. Boyle intends
to speak before the investigating Committee he chOos
come forward At any rate we can assure the gen.
leman that The representatives of t. F. Will bear
lnildcr temper, and more uecorouB expressions
They will be careful not to question Mr. Boyles gentle

But now to the main point in question.
Why does Mr.. Boyle cvnce such chiyalric DISPOSE.

B. F. from most rational and jushable motive, oegs o.
the publc TO keep his Eame out OF the question: until al
the trial is over in order simply, he has written
TO let his system weigh before the community upon It's
I sole merits =
That Mr.. Boyle may feel proud TO give his name to
the World"-the wide-round world!-we comprehend
| il well.
He has some reason to do So When gentleman is
member (wheher self created not OF an E1ecutire
Counea"C , he may justly feel certain pleasure, and
noble pride, in seeing his floating on the STANDARD
of fame and carried TO every quarter OF the Globe
But if as may be the case with B. F.. Mr.. Boyle

The bubbles that mig be thus success sively raised
are innuinerable-but they would surprise u.s.
such course would be anticipated.
Indeed in J. B. F'e reply 10 Mr.. Boyle's first commu-

will persist in their determination TO come forward &c.
In be manuscript the phrase was thus continued And
that they will not any qulooe or some pre- text to
