Mr.. EDITOR Seeing that the "ladies" have
dropped their correspondence with the editor of
the Transcript we take the liberty TO make few
remarks in their behalf, through the Spy, in re-
gard to their sleigh ride. 1t is well known
that they had good team as The city affords,
and, II appearances are a true indication, they
were as smart a company as the citv can scare up
and we were not little surprised, that the Tran
script could afford them no better compliment
We were glad, however to see that the ladies'
independence not so entirely exhausted but
that they yet had spirit and "good sense enough
to reply to the remarks which the TRANSCRIPT
termed compliment. But. what shower of
words followed the ladies' reply, accusing hem of
late hours, diminuiive hearts, ana lack of "good
sense"
This editor seems to have been startled by the
dawn of new era, when ladies" assume the
right of defending their own cause for, hear his
exclamation" Whew what has broke now ?"
as though he feared for the result, that men
rights would become wreck
few weeks since, the ladies of Worcester had
Leap Year Ball-not ali leap gear, however, $50
those gentlemen thought who had to foot the
bills), and, this gdAantty received not only the
appreciation, but the commentator, of the Trans
script; but when these ladies from the bonnet
mandatory took their sleigh ride, and footed
their own bills, asking favOrs of the gentlemen.
this said Transcript editor, foreman, and all
must, at the suggestion Of an ilustrious mechanic,
come out and harangue them. calling them
Bats, oc, iOI hothlhB Out thelr independence
in sighting them
1t is a mighty stoop for an editor, or foreman
to make, when he insults the ladies through the
public press, but is mightier one, when they
condescend to become 'cat's p,tos" for a uulqar
teLloao, who chooses to vent his spleen on the
female sex
When they slurred these "lades," they re-
piled; but, when they insuited them, they, in
true, womanly spirit, treated them with silent
contempt-another "erideace" of their " qood
sense"
On every hand is heard-"they are wound up
now" meaning the "ladies." Too true they
are wound up, and why Because they would be
showing a more independent spirit, in staying at
home, and scorning their challenge, than in ac-
cepting it, by taking another ride and, in their
reply, as they stopped below the dignity of w0m-
en- TO engage in such low controversy, their only
alternative 10, silent contempt, which, no doubt,
they indulge in, freely.
Now what we would say to the editor, and fore
man Of the Transcript, is, don't, unless GU
want to make yourselves ridiculous, don't tell
these ladies' that 1t is a compliment to be called
gals and classed with 'telers,' for which term,
you had better look in the dictionary for the deli
milton. ANONYMOUS.

294 RI
This is theological work by jurist layman,
who has been extensively known to the public in
his professional character The letters were writ
ten to young kinsman, who had evinced dis
position to join the Romish Church. The work
is intended to be a refutation of what the author
considers the casuistry, errors, and misstate-
ments of Miller's End of Controversy" and
other Roman Catholic works. The writer says
he has tested the claims of the Church of Rome,
not BY the writings of its opponents, but by the
authorities on which the Church reies--the early
saints, fathers, and Popes-Augustne, Clement,
Irenarus, &c. He also draws his illustrations
from scripture, history, and books of travel. A
work of this character, prepared with care and
ability. can hardly fail to have numerous readers

For many years, the crude and imperfect ac-
counts that have been received, of the gallant op.
position made by the Circassans under the lead
of Schamyl, to the tyranny Of Russia, have in
terested the people of the western nations, and
we doubt not that many have felt, as we have, a
desire for more knowledge Of matters connected
with the struggle, than they have the means of
access to. To such, this volume will prove very
acceptable. and none the less so for knowing that
