Id. Record: I noticed an article i
veur valuable oaoer of the 16th Inst., which
eevdi correction. Said article M.rra that
one of tbe teachers of cur school la a eon
vert to tbe free llethodlrt dootrine, and
that she Is trying to Incuietta lot tbe
mind of berscbolar tbe tame doctrine.
Such Is not the case. Neither one ol our
teachers are Free Uetbodist, norrr ' tave
and I preaumenuver will be.
Tbey are both teacher who nnderatacd
the duties requiring of theuituo ell tuallnw
aoytbing of the kind In their achool hours,
and thus fat given tbe liel iiafctleo
posaiblH lo both prenia and children.
Keliglou Is all right enougl). but when
tbey g' llt ai badly roiX'd aa they have here
it should, as It has been in this place, kepi
out of the icbool room.
Your informant ibould be bolter posted
next time. One of the Sabbath school
teachers, a leading member uf tbe Free
Uetbodist eburcb look Ibe liberty lo look
up tbe Bible, last Sabbiih morning, and
instructed tbe children te go borne and re
main there, alro iu Turin their parrots that
if tbey attended the Universal gatherings
Ibey would be consigned lo a terriblo pun
ishtneot', 4c. I would advise them to en
close their tracks.ao be a littio tnoie lib
eral hereafter. Tbey certainly could ac
complish more good lu tie end. Quite 1
number of tbem walk from herd to tbe Co)

tbey are holding a series ol tneeiiug.
