MEssRs. EDIToR you allow us
through the columns of your Journal
to express our Acknowledgements to the
writer of an article i'm the Christian
Adroeate; which brought together to
hear repetition of a larger crowd than
often assemblies in our little village,
two. or three driving 10 miles to listen
to '.blasphemy" from preacher, as well
known for the purity of his moral
character as for the severe and some
what narrow orthodoxy of his religious
opinions, unmixed nonsense from one
OF the ripest scholars in the State, and
the revealing Of the secrets of married
life from celibate-tO whom they must
certainly have been betrayed by some
faithless Benedict-we trust not the
author of criticism referred to-whose
article savors enough of personal veXa-
ton to Justify the suspicion were it not
repealed by the evident juvenility of
the writer VINO guores Byron's youthful
attack on Wordsworth, in Justification
of his attack upon Mr.. S., and a very
high cOmmpliment it is, the amusin9ly
misapplied byron agreed with the Re-
viewer that pfeaahsi saAoul1 mot lecture
out of the pulpit-nor Is 1t either for
that matter, belonging as he did to
the, what was known Is, Satdnic school
of poets, and disliking Wordsworth for
the Christian and moral tone of his
writings. But VIC were disappointed
We listened in vain for the blasphemy
promised us by the critic. Indeed the
weak point OF the lecture was the con-
slant tendency of the Rev. Speaker to
preach and give adviee-and having
paid for something spicy we felt, in
stead sot amusing Us with quotations
from Byron or abusing the Methodist
Church. the lecturr advised the girls
not to llirt, and the young men not to
fiatter, much like a child who spends
his holiday money in sugar-plums and
finds them seasoned with rlubarb or red
pepper. y n s

The horse was literally covered with stineS,
