DEAR SIR: I am under much obligation
% yon for the copy Of the Rev. Dr. Bas-
CONS Review Of The Manifesto Of the Ma
joriiy, which you were so kind as to send
me through the Rev. Mr.. Wrightman OF
Charleston.


| have read il with much attention and
a great deal Of pleasure. Il i in every
respect very ably executed, both as 10 mai
Ter and manner; and is full and triumphant
vindicaiion of the course adopted by the
Southern portion of The Methodist Church.
Their conduct throughout the whole affair
was such as became Patriots and Chris
tians.


DR.. Bascnm ha- displayed the talent and
Information, not only Of an able Divine and
Logician, bu, also Of an able Statesman
and profound Philosopher. regard it, ia
ken as whole, the ablest production, which
has yet appeared against that ianaiical az
iia;ion Of the subject Of abolition, which
exists at ihr North West. and which threat
ems both Church and Safe with 50 much
mischief. The whole Union, but more es-
pecially the South, is indebted to him for
his clear and full exposition Of its character,
nlehcy and object.
