MR. EDrroR After q long and suspcnsive
delay to learn from the Columbia NeighGor the
name of the gentleman who he so invectively
condemned in Denominational Doggery, and to
See an attempt to convict me Of heresy, have
ut length thought best to break silence and go
in search Of the Nei0hbor's whereabouts (conclu-
sions) for the satisfaction Of tho numbers who,
like myself, have waited anxiousiy to hear from
him.
Has he . friend that can give his secret (how
he is to be jush6ed) for am at q lost to know
iRto what hole he has crept (ezcuse to recon-
nzend bis present course unless he has conclu-
Ied to take shelter behind Mr.. Biscuit Board,
and try something else that be can manage
better. For the last heard of him through
Little John, he was vomiting some Of Mr.. Bis
cults Boards leaden bullet (ignorance) by mouth
fulls upon the slanderers, having forgotten al
ready Donominational Doggery-(oh, consis-

way OF the foolish is always inconsistent aud their

only give you blot, for they will think you
fool because they have not reason enough to
comprehend you. And likely make a manifest
display of their ignorance, as was the case Of
Mr. Buiscuit Board, who promised to pay for
the soapyou used to wash the type after my adj
vertisement and his reply thinking his reply
oh, pity )-while at the same time his bread
tray (mind) was in such filthy (ignorant) state,
that he and all of his friends coald not command

Therefore, Mr.. Editor, as I bare the piece
promised last April ready, which want to pass
through your press as an advertisement, / don't
want it stained with the filth (ignorance) that
Mr. Biscuit Board has left on your type, have
sent You this, which you can put in as an adver-
tisement also, to enable you to procure soap

fingers Aud in the mean time, ! will try to
furnish Mr.. Biscuit Board with supply of wa

press again, he may not leave things in such
dirty and filthy foolish and disgracefuD state.
For may be too busily engaged in something of
too great importance, and consequently will pot
be able to stop to provide means for you to get
yourself cleanscd, and in my haste break some
thing (eXpose you too), for precive The dose
given in my other was not sufficient to cleanse
his stomach (mind), and therefore will have to
repeat it. For am not altogether without hope
of getting him cleaased yet driving him from
his folly), if not so rs to rank in the first class
cable to teach wisdomJ at least SO as to enter
she second (keep silence upon all matters that
he does not understand.) For preceive that it

cream (wit) but no trases of bile (good sense),
yet it may be after have Joylcd him time or
TWO more that may reach it (bring him to his

sufficient to work that leaden bullet Ggnorance)

they hate to give up that old family bullet (ther

gig them (exposo their ignorance) if they don't
take their ph, sic voluntarily (quit it without)
for until tnat ballet (ther igoorance) is taken
away from them, their disease will remain in-

Having tried the remedy, can testify to the
facts, for he was right when he conceived that
my stomach (mind) was ceansed (cnlightehed),
Lut slightly mistaken when be thought it was by
their artificial biscuits that was vomited dds
gustcd.) Not so. 1t was through their pet

so much for Mr.. Biscuit Board and his STU
pidity, which has been done TO try to shame him
and tic world from their folly,as lis the only
means LEFT by which there remains any hope Of
lis ever being consum,natcd, for l have already
used every means that love could Invent through
mildness and kin dncSs, 10 induce them TO repent,
IN vain, they mistaking love for weakness, re-
e,rting Mo insane. Therefore, have resolved
10 try what virtue there is in shame, that they
may be brought to repent Of tLcir wickedness
before it il too late. Therefore l must use all
means consistent with the truth to accomplish
it. Then being with those who are without law,
viii become rs without law. Or being with the
foolish, will become az fool, that | may he
abe to teach them Scase For it is not Of the
christian either to jest or turleSquc. But were
to omit noticing Mr. Biscuit Boards piece, some
