Milieu Seam Pnxvexns.—I have an easy task in answering J. T.'s last lottor as it is composed of the lowest of slang and "clotted nonsense." Did you ever hear of anyone 'exaggerating the truth," or of anything being "unsuccessfully contra- dicted?" This sounds funny. If "scur- rility" is applicable to my letter I wonder what word in the dictionary would snit his ? I don't think there are any. He says ho never made an apology to rho Inspector. In the Inspector's letter to Jackson is the following:—"Tho post- master regrets that you should have been put to inoonvonionoo on account of the clerk's error." What does this mean ? With reference to rent, etc. I shall pass over as I have proved those before. I wonder if ho thinks now that one of my pupils will speak well of me? Ho felt bad about the petition, and so loo should after what ho said. It is scarcely necessary to say that I never saw tho petition, nor knew that the pupils 1.00x8 gutting ono up till after it was signed. What about Mrs. Bailey's boy now, also T. Coultes' daughter? Their names were there. I neither called Mrs. T. a liar nor used ono abtisivo word, whioh I cam prove by three who were there at the time. She never accused mo of punish- ing bur boy sevorely, but said I should not have punished trim at all, (which I can prove by tho same three. Mr. Gannett had a boy who went to mo Dight days last wintor•, not two as the lottor his son's name is to says. Iris eon says, to tell the truth, his parents would not let him go any longer, and that he could hardly get going rho short time he did. A boy is going to learn a great deal in eight day. If Gannett expects that I can mak° a scholar out of a boy in that time it is 110 wonder that ho is a tool of Timmins' and allowed his name to be put to a letter oompoaed of falsehoods. Tho following letter settles Maxwell's case :—"Wo, the undersigned trustees of School Sootion No. 8, Morris, wish to stato that J. H. Thomson never signed an acknowledgement ab the mooting we held. He only stated that he might have struck the boy harder than ho intended, and the reason wo did not hire him was because wo thought a oheapor teaohor would do our section. (Signed), WmLLA1I JnwrTT, Tnoolas WAnwroc, LAr1011LXN 3nasrn.' This settles that falsehood. I wondor if Mr. T. will snrvivo after reading these proofs? They must bollard on him, Anyone can see his object in saying I called his wits a liar. The truth is he could not write a lotto• at all unles0 ho told untruths about me. I oallod his at- tention to my registered letter, also a "tracor" front the Inspector (novecl hint wonderfully. How could he call my at. tontion to it as ho says ? I plead guilty to the charge that I have not reoeivod a first class certificate, and d a great manyuy aro in rho same boat with ma ; but thou he should know that yon canot buy a First-class oortifioato the same as you can a chattel utortgago. With roferonoe to writing my la1tor8 on tho pnblio's time, (if I slid) itis surely better than to write then on Sunday. His little dialogue is Emmy, but I think 1)0 will intprovo with praoti80. Now for those pupils who left me. T. Farrow told me to state that I had soon hint personally, and that he never took his 1031s from my school that he had 110 fault to iind with mo, and never hoard hia boys say a word against me. Mr. Farrow's boys can go to throe schools. This settles that case. lir. Cornell does not know why lois boy will not go. All have to say about Mr. Mc. Craokon's boy is that he should have been expelled three years ago. Tho school would have boon much better without hint, He says I failed to secure a position in Perth and Huron, I wondor in which entity Bluevalo is ? I am almost iuolin- ed to believe that I Levant hot/ninon than half a mild from from a cow's tail, by tho Way tho calf is bawling attar mo (ivory orator week in the Budget. With rofor- 0noo to that letter•ho opened I shall with. hold my proof for the present. Now, Mr. Editor, I havo proved all charges laid against mo, • The public will now bo ablo to judge rho truthfulness of tho character I am writing against. Ifo has got to 1118 Mid of his ropo 110W, and if Ito had written tho truth I could have wound ]rim up long ago. I en pretty well losclod with facts just now, but 1' don't think it will bo n00as0ary foo lie to wriio any mom.
