MESSRS t..nrr6as.— When I took my pen

teMpting a reply, if, the author were my 1 . .
equal; but ias it is, I feel a confidence to pra

laugh, wherij his teacher does.
,
I entertain tone but) friendly feelings to
wards lir. Newton, andirnsidering his years
as compared With mine,and the positioa he oc
cupies in community, mould not willingly
treat hint With disrespect, or his opinion with
ridicule; and if I have done, or shXll do so,
