inent l must confess that az I got
big became skeptical OF that prop
osition just az l have on various
other Philosophical and Astrono-
mical points handed down to me
tradishionally. l have spent much
good time and labored laboriously
trying to unlearn errors taught me
while boy, and just SIGH errors
will continue to be learned and be-
lieved by rising generations so long
as the old ones believe in witches,
changes of moon, signs of the
zodiac, Joshua sun astionom, the
four corners Of the earth. &C.
Now, Mr. Editor; here is bit of
these wise peoples consistency:
They say that fulls, changes, &c. of
the moon at certain hours of the
day or night will brig rain, then
they will tell you the next day that
the Lord in his own good time will
send it. In which case are they
right? They surely can't be in
both, and l affirm they are not
wholly so in either; but I can't
convert Ephriam, for he is joined
to his Idol and it will take years Of
labor with the lambs fed on proper
food to clear all those obstacles
away, tho I confess that Z loug
jump in the right direction has
been made since the hanging of
the Witches in Massachusetts, by
the Puritans.
