Dr. Sangster says, "T never wroto such a letter, nor made any such proposals to my present wife while an undivorced married man. I wrote one only after the divorce, and I am willing that this letter be given. to the public, and if it con- tains any such propositions, I will at once retire from the contest." Again, Dr. Sangster say e : " did -not 'threaten my wife's father with a civil suit unless that father ceased td com- plain, &c.! I am willing that this worst thing should: also be published, to let the world judge therefrom of the Globe's truthfulness and my criminality, -and i it contains a single sentence which ca be twisted. into a threat or action m part because my wife's father had co plained, I will actmit all the charges ti Globe has brought against me." The Glob says Dr. Sangster was 'dismissed ftom th Normal School, while Dr. Ryerson it forms us that his resignation in 1871 was a en/an/cow act. Now, it will here be noticed. that Dr. Sangster has proved many of the Globe charges to be incor- rect ; he denies others, and challenges the roof;Phe demands the publication of certain doeaments, and expreSses his willingucss to withdraw from the con- teste if these documents are found to cons tam what the Globe represents they do! How does the Globe Meet these rebuttals, denials and challenges ? Does it con- fess its error, prove its unrefuted_chargei and accept the challenges? Not a bit of it, but, instead, formulates new charges, despises the offering Of proof, and ale lows the many challenges to go un- noticed. In the face of all these facts aaal contradictions, then, can it be won- dered at that those who are only ordin- ary mortals stand appalled at the saga- city and the intellectual acumen of those who superciliously affect to direet others iu the path of righteousness, saying,- " Can it be that ye intend. to support such a num," without showing how this conclusion has been arrived at. It does not seem to me that the repeated de- mands of Dr. Sangster that the alleged criminating documents be given to the public would be action of a guiltynnua And if, on the other hand, these repeat- ed challenges are not immediately ac- cepted, or a satisfactory explanation given, I can endorse the language of one of our public journalists, who says " that the writer 'in the Globe is a scoundrel whoever he may be." There is also an- other feature in this case that I am at a loss to understand. How comes it that the sympathies of Grit and Tory jour- nals are nearly as oppositely marked as in matters political. It is true there are exceptions, but only sufficient to prove - the rule. If it is purely a question 6f morality, what has political shadinge to do with it? Is it not, to say the least; slightly suggestive of mixed moralS, which, perhaps, some one can explain. giving ting Jate- 11 was was the f the In- vision of he Globe sking its id -taking ie did not o publish of allow- to- speak rbled and erein con - accepted, e whole sonlitted.

I am of the opinion that, painful to ourselves and others as such a disclosure would be, it might be eipedient for the Doctor and his friends to consider well this point. - You know the Doctor has said that the causes leading to their separa- tion. are of too private and painful a nature to be publicly discussed, and that he has promised to be as silent of past events as it is within his power to be ; but I am aware that this is a poor argument for the cold blooded animals of the genus homo, although there are those ,who can understand, feel and sympathize with a fellow mortal in such a dilemma e and I can further etate that the man who could be so mean and self- ish, unless absolutely forced, as to vin- dicate himself, at the expense of the character of his children and their mother, would never be asked to be the representative of some of the teachers of Ontario that I know. "But," says an- other, "why do you not get a man above suspicion ?' I say because we know of none; at least it is neither Gold - win Smith, nor the Archbishop of - bury, nor do I believe that any man is yet above suspicion, whose learning and originality of mid are sufficient to cause him to doubt the infallibility of whatever may be considered popular or- thodoxy. Your very anxiety thus to avoid suspicion and leave the victim. to his traducers is to put a premium upon slander, and to refuse that means of justification which is not denied to the conimen thief or the murderer. Think how much of justice there would be, and what would be the result, if at this time the congregation and elders of 'Rev. E W.
