I am glad To see that writer in the Advertiser of the 23d inst has directed public attention to subject whose importance Is daily becoming of para mount interest It is one, the consideration of which has been by tacIt consent. 50 long and SO heedessly overlooked, that it's encroachments have nsidiously crept, step by step, until they have pass ed those salutary bounds which every well orgdn- ised community should prescribe to itself, unless that community desires 10 be overlooked in the sisiance.

 Upon such a sutiect, individual opinion can do nothing more than indicate. It Is only by a con- oI action arising from community of interest, that evils Of this nature can be arrested.

 The questions propounded by the writer in the Advertiser are pregnant with deep and abiding concern-and they require explicit and satisfactory replies, II behooyes our citizens 10 institute thelr own tribunals of enquiry law loving people are always loh to encroach upon the prerOgatives with which the, have clothed their authorised agents; but in default oi siern and Fearless scrutiny on the part oi the pubic aulhorltN, OR WISE AND PRU- DENT ABSTINENCE ON THE FART OF THE OF TENDERS, rhe great law o self preservation ought and viii inevitably, point to d more summary and eieetudl retributIon

 Iregrel to differ from the editor of the Advertise CT, although difference is Iapprehend, but nom- inal, upon the direct issue involved. Tha question l is not agIated through the "aarms" Of those whO move m il, nor because fear serious results lrou sregious instructo on.' It is not danger we fear, but injury that may be wr0ueht-not SO much to us especially, as 10 those misguided beings whose l judgments are distorted by pervorsion of those uses to which "relgous instruction" should be Ie gitmately applIed NZ-a conteRed spirit with thciI destiny-a respectful submission to the laws tha govern them, and proper understanding of the fol- l y of being mised by false views of rights not ap. pertaining to their condition. It IS the absence o this wholesome condition which a fanaical and par ty spirited snllenness creates and of which com 1 plain. Remonstrances have been made, and they are answered by continuance Enquiries which we have right to make, are answered in "blie reply" which is irrelevant. Be it ss. The evi speak of has hitherto been noticed but partially and therefore ncontnently condemned. Half way measures inspire embroidered defiance. Now con ceise it the duty of every lunctionary in communi ty to respect public opinion, if he please tc call it, public prejudces, upon all subjects wherein that public have just grounds to apprehend that tain proceedings of said uncionary can, (even m dreciIy,) work mischief, else the consequences of pertnacious and self opinonated pride must speech

 y oyertake him.

 A word to the wise sufficient. This is a ant l of freedom, but man is free to shape and work out his neighbours destruction.
