CO11kDIUNICATION To the Edittor. of the New Lira. MR. EDITOR, -With your permission I have a few words to say in regard to -the-letter I wrote two weeks since. Many and varied are the opinions that have been expressed both of the letter and the writer; charge some' char gme with t foolishness, and others with big head- edness. Wen, foolish I may be, but ,my head is the same size as it has been ie . for a nnrril ,r of "years—ibis-I know by nay bat. Some have said that I insin- uated arrainst, or spoke slightingly of, thelady who took part in the debate. If such is the case;' I beg to apologize to the lady, and I may say that ;noth- ing was farther from my . intentions, But there is just a mere possibility of engendering strife' and ill -feeling by continuing the discussionin this way, and for this reason I wish to say '.dis-. tinctly that with this letter I am done with the subject so far as • the news- papers are concerned; but ae for die - cussing the point upon the platform, l am just as desirous to do so as ever with the person I named before, my friend, Mr Holland. Now sir, as to en quirer and his questions, I am` not awre that I challenged the town,• or ev n the surrounding country, I think I quite plainly mentioned the name of the person with whom I wished to de- bate. But perhaps Mr Enquirer sim- ply wishes to gain a little information as regards the laws of .nature and the power of circumstances. If such be the case, I would refer him to Web- ster's dictionary for the answer to his first question, and I have no doubt but that a course of honest reasoning, well seasoned with good common sense,will -answer all the rest to his entire satis- faction, Wen the other hand, En. quires simply desires me to answer his questions that he may e'er something. to use against me, I must say he is greener than I am, to suppose' for a moment that I will do so, more espec- ially as he was, or at least seemed to be ashamed to sign his name. Now sir, I am through, and coma what may I will write no more on this subject. With many thanks to you, for your valuable space,I remain, yours truly, F. BAER, I have on hand a quantity of the 13ovee and six weeks varieties for seed. They are two weeks earlier than the Early Rose, good producers, are dryand meaty when young.
