 EDiToN MINER :---I noticed in tho Daily MINER, of the 23d inst, thiak, q communi. cstion from tue Rev e. A. Reetter which. \ think, reflects rather severely on the wover- biai liberslity of the people of Prescott. He gays that he has contributed more iabov. also more money from his own pocket for repairs on our church, than was contributed bv the whole people of Pfesco,t Now, this proves one of two things, viz: That the Rev gen. tleman has been extremely liberal or that the amount contributed by the people of Pres colt falls far short of that which have been told. have been told that from thirteen 10 ffteen hundred dollars hai been subscrib- cd by our citizens. If this ie so, then indeed IS the Rev gentleman entitled to flourish of trumpcts; but if his own subscription should prove Co bc less than the above amount, and thst this aiaauns has been sub. scribed the truth of which have no doubt) by our citizens, then, in this case the people of Prescott should call oB Mr Feeder to make good the difference in amounts. tha, the truthfuipess of his communication may no longer be questioned. do not feel seri ousiy aggFieyed, notwithstanding my subscrip. ton was O0 and will, if necessary, give the same amount again. KENO.
