TO the Editor qt Ow Clinton New Xrak '
Dean vacant morning is the ex -
ease for writing a very imperfect (beeline°.
.thort) critique on your article in a recent
ieeue. The prohibition movement abort' a
frightful ignorance of the requirements of
humanity, and of the supplies of nature to
satiefy them a mischievous interpretation of
scripture, similar to teat of 44 thou shaltnot
enffer a witch to live," which led to the. ter-
rible cruelties and murders of thousands of
women in England and Scotland, in the lOth
and 16th centuries; near the end of which
twenty were 'killed in New &gland, by the
divine ..001tOr Mather; or that the injunction
to destroy the Panaanites extended to the
Massacre of a settlement of Permed Indians,
You assert the greater trathfidneas of ad-
vocates over opponents. I have been one of
the latter at least 25 years, Being assailed,
I replied under "Misrepresentations of Pro-
hibitioniats," 1860, which silenced that one ;

travagant provoked my choler, and have not
•been replied to,
Such a provocation occurred last week, at
the Grimsby, camp greund; one of the rev,
speakers on 'Methodism of the present," ark-
serted that a consistent Methodist =at be
an abstinent, as the rules elf the church were
egainat the traffic in, or use of intoxicating
drink. Now. In the :Society •Rulee, eigned
by 3. 'and C. Wesley, May 1, 1743, it i thus
printed, among "avoiding evils of every kind;"
"Drunkenness, buying or .selling spirituous
liquors, or drinking them, -unless in oases ' of
extreme neaessity."
•• 11 18 probable the • speaker had seen the
rides sometime, but his imagination had per-
verted this one. The use of fermented drinks
is limited by " drtMitflODOS8," that of liquors
by "extrenie necessity." As toperjery, the

Dr. Guthrie, in his."StindaYs Abroad," re-
