For the Star of The North


Ma. EDITOR ~ perceive that my slric.
tures upon Mr.. Teitsworth's communication
oi July 25ih, has called,iorth another grand
display of the genileman's descriptive and
anathematizing powers, proving the truth oi
the old adage that ia iDounded bird ic,H alteogs
.fufer." | would not design TO notice an ar
iicle so totally devoid oil the spirit OF Chris
Iianiiy and filled with vain egoiism were it
not that by it am placed in false hight,
and again has misrepresentation and abuse
been poured upon the innocent by a man
protesting TO be teacher of truth. or the

head, or ranks with that class, judging from
his milk and water production. But must
treat MIR. T. mildly, myself, or may offend
this "litle one," and am aware there is a
penalty attached to such offence. la this,
therefore, dear Bro. Teitsworth, | will exer.
cise due discretion and only speak plainly
and expose your faults only when truth and
justice call for it.
Let me now notice some Of the assertions
o! the learned gentleman. "The old edifice
aud those who assembled there have been
lately scandalized by scoffer. &c." sup
pose be alludes to myself in this statement
yet if applied 10 me how false as every one
must see. Not one word occurs in my ar.
ticle by way of ridicule or scandal with rel
ference TO the worshippers who assemble al
she church, or the community at large, but
altogether TO the contrary. The "scandal
and rIdiculeD appears ON the other side oil
the question.
First, he brands them as tsUnitarians, d
then calls them "Millerites," "Errorists,' y
