RESPECTED FRIENDS:
]. BARNABY, ia.

In looking over the Dugle a few
days ago, l was very forcibly struck with an
article from the pen Of John B. Wolf, taken,
| think, from the "Western Christian Adys-
cate" and il occurs to me Just now, that a
word in relation to some things contained in
it, might not be out of place; and l also wish,
to call attention to some further develope-
ments of his real character, that from them,
the people may see, what this class of per-
sons (the Priests) are, and what they are do
ng; but, l would observe here, that from all
l can learn of the man, I conclude that he is
a tool in the hands of Elisha Bates; comes at
his call, and barks at his bidding-and will
further add, that no other than a Priest, or the
willing tool of a Priest, could be guilty Of
placing before the public an article SO notori-
ously false, and slanderous, in its character,
as the one alluded to. In the first place
he processes to have a perfect knowledge of
the motives, which impel our friends to pur-
sue the course they are taking, and tells us
that it is the establishment Of the principles of
Infdelity. Merely calling the readers atten-
ton to this, is sufficient; all will see the
Priestly assumption at a glance. He says
she asked some questions when at the Con-
~vention at this place. but he says nothing of
the manner of doing it or, of the professions
he made to the audience. Those questions
were asked out Of pure regard for tho cause
in which we were engaged $50 he said "and
much depends on the answer you give to
them. 1t is for the benefit of the audience,
Of the speakers, and Of the cause, thai /, ask
them, there is q, great deal behind them" &c.
And yet, he denied in the same meeting the
CORE ctness Of the foundation principle of the
Anti Slavery enterprise; that is, that it is
wrong under all circumstances to hold Slaves;
hence, he must be viewed as an advocate of
Slavery; an advocate Of man holding his fell
low man as property. This also, only re-
quires to have the attention directed to it in
order to exhibit the baseness and hypocrisy
of the man. But | must not dwell longer on
this, wish as | said in the commencement,
to call attention to other developements of the
real character of this Priest, John b. Wolf.
On the evening Of the 18th of last month,
a meeting was held some three or four miles
west of Mt. Pleasant, to examine the pro-
Prieiy Of holding temperance meetings on the
Sabbath day. At an early hour, the house
was well filled, and among the number pres
ent was John b. Wolf. The ordinary for
49,
malities of organizing were over when l ar
rived. But | very shortly discovered that
some thing more was to be done. Arrange
ments were being made to select speakers.
This last, was evidently the work of friend
Wolf, as after movements clearly proved. l
took occasion to suggest that any person pres
ent wishing to speak on the question under
consideration be left at liberty to do so. At
this friend w. arose and said 'he would OPP
pose any movement of the kind the audience
had come there to hear mon of irRusres and

fagration, when the Earth, and with it, lis
wicked inhabitants should be consumed in
the flames, &c., &c,-I say, after listening
to a sermon which ran after this sort, l took
advantage of opportunity given for any
one to speak, but had said but few words
barely informed them that proposed to call
their attention 10 another subject, their duty
to God their Father and man their brother, in
which they had a more immediate interest
than the one to which they had been giving
their at,ention''-when the Elder with a
commanding voice, said; "Sit down" S
down!!" ''Sit down!!" ats my meeting"
l remarked that | chose not to relinquish
the opportunity given and proceeded.
Thcreupon the Elder commenced singing
''praises to God" in order to drown my voice
and thus break me down. His pioas -3nfi-
Slavery brethren joined in with him and sang
("in the Spirit no doubt) until they wer.
tired Of ii.
Meantime, 1 continued speaking-spots
slow and loud 30 as to enable those not en-
gagged in Religious Worship, to hear. l
made use Of this Circumstance, the spirit
manifested towards me, to convince them
that these professed Christians were '.of the
Devil"
Well they soon became weary of "making
melody unto the Lord" and SO changed the
order Of worship. Two of their leading,
most devotional brethren made towards me-
with firm step, Courageous mo M! What
Christian fortitude!!!) and with hearts all
filled to overlooking with tho spirit of their
Master, laid violent hands en- uc End thrust
mo, out into the street.
As soon as freed from their grasp I return
i to the "House Of God" and again com-
menced speaking-was dragged out the sec
ond time by the same pious C~hristians-iht
second time returned and remained unmoles-
ted.
The elder thought il ben, not longer to
continue the 'Nunequal combat, and so uncer-
enormously left the house without singing,
prayer, or the benediction.
The sisters and most of tho brethren fol-
lowed, leaving me to closn the meeting in my
own way.
You would naturally suppose such a bus
tie as was produced by this 'drag out"
would seriously alarm the female portion Of
the assembly, but 30 far from it, some Of them
were a good deal elated, as they cyi ced by
their indelicate grins rs they passed me on
their way out.
They probably had seen the like before, for
they believer fighting, for wha:they call ,hoir
"re!igious rights"
| will just say, in justice 10 some Of
their members, who disapprovc Of breach
ing the subject of Slaray in a rcli-
gious meeting, that they disapprovcd Of tbs
''drag OUT on the ground that it would make
talk and give them 4 bad name abroad.
One of the sisters too, wife of the leader
in the attack upon my person, "Would'nt
have had it dono for Ten Doil1rs;'' for tho
reason as her husband slid in reply, 90

Dear Brother,
You know the Free Will Baptists of this
place, were set all on fire because Mr.. Fos-
ter and Miss Kelley, slandered them so, in
proving them to be pro-slavery.
They even went SO far as to ex-communi-
cate some of their worthy members, (who,
they were sure, would leave them) for the
same reason that they "gnashed their teeth"

Observation-Disclosures as these Free
Will Baptists, would sit most patiently, under
an .4"ti-S!avery lecture, though it were deliv-

Well, last Sunday evening", l gave them an
opportunity of proving, that they had been
slandered, by those Anti-Slavery Lecturers
and these accommodated church-mem-
befs, and that it was not without reason they
were so eXasperated against them.

Yates, in which he endeavored to prove
that the body as well as the soul, would go to
