To the Editor of the _Huron Expositor.
- DEAR Sm.: I have read the letter,
signed. W. N. Watson, in your last is-
sue, and though there are many omis-
sions and mis-statements he it, there is
only one omission that Pshallneention,
for the reason that it is the only one in
which the public are immediately con-
cerned, and that is, that the temperary
vacancy, in the school was supplied at
the expense of the absent teacher, with
'the apProval of ;the Inspector, and of
'hree of '-the five trustees at present in
this country, and, consequently, neither
was there any interruption to the
school, nor any additional cost to the
town. The matter is, therefore, re-
duced tea personal grievance of Mr.
Watson! against myself, the correct de-
tails of N9114.1 I do not think the public
sufficiently interested in to peruse with
either itileastu:e or profit. Yours, dec., ,

ered by Rev. Mr. Campbell, and several
interesting readings were given by Dr.

the occasion by their excellent music.

sion. It Must be plain to every reflect-
ing mind that any organization which
maintains two hostile parties -cannot lay
claim to ,loyalty, or patriotism, in any
country, Much less in Canada, with. her
frontier of thousands of miles, and a
neighbor with ten times our population

that would. require the united strength
of 'every arm in the Dominion to l hold
it in check. Again, it is a fact that en in-
ternal enemy is more to be dreaded than.
a,foreign foe. As Ethouse divided against
itself must fall, so a nation torn by hos-
tility is not stable. A civil war the
greatest calamity that can befal a coun-
try. Thies remembrance -of it must
cause pain to every lover of his coun-
try's welfare. Then, what good. cause
can be served by raking up those bloody
memories that recall disasters, and
bring before the mind recollections of
broils and deep and festering wounds in-
flicted on society in the uameof loyalty.
If the Orange body will have'" a pro-

Catholics, it was against Protestants
opposing Protestant Associations. I
would expect and do not blame Roman
Catholics to think differently, end say
have no such societies; but all law-
abiding and peace -loving Roman Cath-
olics will allow the right in -Protestant
countries. Your correspondent is one
of two things. If a Protestant, he -is a
hypocrite; if a Roman Catholic', he be-
longs to the lower class, and -what I
termed" mob" in my last. He tries to
make your readers believe I said" igno-
rant Papists." I defy him or any one
else to say over their own signature that
I ever used. the term "Papist," for I
consider it insulting to all Roman Oath-
olicsaas his term "persecuting crew,"
• is insulting to all Protestants,. Let him
give a historical instance where they
have persecuted any party. I admit in-
dividual Orangemen use insulting lan-
guage to Catholics., but they are not the
whole society. He says no decent Pro:
testant belongs to such a crew. "Ye
Orangemen " is a common expression
with respectable Roman Catholics in
Irightown in speaking to Protestants,
and the leading Roman Catholic papers
in Montreal say Freemasons, Oddfel-
lows, Foresters, Temperance Societies,
Young Britons and Orangemen, are all
Orangemen under different names.
Surely those are as good authority as
your correspondent without a name. As
he commences and ends with my name
and as much as hints that I dare not go
to that locality, if he 'gives his name
will meet him on my letter,or on Politics
lin the same place after two months
time, with the same chairman to pre-
