Ihave read with surprise and sorrow on
your own account, your structures in this
mornings paper on my respected and beloved
friend and brother the Rev. E. P. Thwing.
He has as good title to the prefix "Rev." as
any minister in this city. He was for many
years the pastor Of one of our city
churches, aud though for the. present simply
a member of the Second Parish, is the acting
pastor of one of the best and most ancient
churches of the neighboring commonwealth
of Massachusetts,.
| l vas, of course, present at the devotional
meeting of Thursday afternoon, though at my
earnest request, the Rev. J. M. Palmer pre-
sided on that occasion. am therefore COM
petept to affirm with all confidence that
Mr.. Thwing did not use the words imputed
to him "God forbid it,. He did not Oh that
occasion, nor has he to my knowledge on
any other, represented himself as in any way
officially connected with your paper. His
credentials as a Christian, minister, pro-
lessor of elocution have all the necessary and
customary attestations, and in all those ca.
pacties as well as in that OF a good and up
right citizen, he has the entire confidence
aud sincere respect of all who know him. The
circle of his intimate friends in this city en-
braces very many of all denominations, whose
surprise and sorrow ION your own account)
were doubtless as great as my own. '

fire alarms. Easter morning the rector of
the Episcopal church ordered the sexton to
usher in the day with a lively ringing of the
bells; but that official fearing the terror of the
law more than the denunciation Of his spirit
nal adviser, fatty refused. Thereupon the
rector sent his son and there was an alarm

TIE two last reports of the bureau of sta
tistics relative TO exports and imports are de-
cidedly cheering when compared with the
fifteen months previous to September 30th.
The imports to this country for that period
exceeded the exports in the sum of $131 ,O00,-
600. Since that time. however, great revo-
luton has taken place. The statistics for
October and November show that our exports
amounted to si17,427,S92. The importa-
tons for the same months were $96,S4S, 2S0.
Thus in two months the exports exceeded
the imports by twenty millions. The net
gain of exports averaged more than thirteen
millions month, and if continued until the
end of July viii carry our exports for the
year above our imports, and exhibits a for
eign commerce Of more than 1880, 900, 900
in place of half that amount in 1869. So
