Our good friend M. A. may be assured, that we have never received
any of the Coinmunications which he mentions. Had they come to our
hands, we should certainly have paid due respect to them. Part of the
Letter signed, “No Methodist," cannot with propriety be inserted; but
as the renainder is not in the same predicament, we will, with the
writer's leave, give it a place in our next.
