"MR ISITT'S INSINUATIONS."
TO TUB EDITOR OF TUB PRESS. Sib,—The Rev. Mr Tobin, without intending it, does mc an injustice when he writes about my " insinuations. ,, I knew no more of the circumstances in regard to the Vicar of Lambourne than were presented by the Press, and assumed ite statement of fact (?) to be correct, unwisely I admit. 1 am sincerely glad to learn that the Vicar hid simply received an acknowledgment of services, which was greatly to hie credit, but my, argument with the Press is not affected by the correction. It assumed that there was in that instance " perfect harmony between the Church and the turf," and evidently gloried in the alliance, while making a fuss «bout our use of a parallel to sacred words with the intention of smiting an evil. Iα like manner the Press constantly advocates the turf, which promotes gambling, and at the same time poses as an instructor in morale. Regretting that I -was misled into an unjusc reference to the Vicar.—Yours, &c, Thk Editor or the Pkojiibitionist. Sweet odours of Araby are a dream which ; can be realised vhen smoking Indian Chief j Cigarettes. 10 J AU M*tcbl»s3 Teas reduced 24 per lb.
