The communication is signed “X,Y. %.," which, boing interpreted, meaus tho Rey. Dr. William M.

And tho communication i queation must bo considered in view of these surrouvdiug arcumetancos, Roferriug to the couference held at tho Sher- man Houre tho evening befora Dr. McLaren's election, Dr, Reynolda (aliaa ‘X.Y.

In this connection it is proper to stato that, haying been advised by Dr. De Kaven two weoks before the day our jate Conveouriun mot, of the intonded withdrastul of Lis vamo from all cau. nection with tho contest for the Episcopate uf Ilhuoi, L was not a party thereattor, dirocily of indirectly, to any effort to compass bis ro-olec- tion ; poituer was i cognizaut of any concerted eflurt to this ond, either atthe coufarenco or tho Convention ; nor was I informed that s sin- ple voto would be cast for Dr. De Koven in any other way thav by inforence frum the fact of his naine having beon put im nommation before tho Convention oy one of the most worthy of our clergy. ‘To this I wav add, what waa well known to Dr. Reynolds, that a second addreua having been made in’ Dr. Do Koven’s favor, L obtained the tluor, and made 5 uneoct, calling attention to tho fact that the Docwwr vad with- drawn from the contest, and declated that uo could not to our Lishop, sud stating io Hub+ siunco that if any votes were cast for him im tho taco ot bia withdrawal it woalu bo to bis outiro surprise, ag woll ox against his knowledge or consent, aud hence thas be coud oot be held in any way responsible for the same. While occu- pyiag the fluor I was asked if the lotter forbsde to ua of his nme; \wheroupon Ltecalled the wording of the lotterin this regard, und added that thoso words would speak for thomavives.

Coupled with tho rost of “X.Y. Z,'a" article, the moan reference to tho Dustur’s soxtraordiuary lotior of quasi-remgnation to tho Ihuois Courention” would soem to involve suoh insinuation. Note Lut a distorted mind contd regard that letter ay a se hinalroaueiatlon and for the better proof of Dr. De Koveu'a elucerity in bis withdrawal (if better proof bo needod) I may here record the fact that, since tne Convention, Lo has suid to mo that bad he boxn ro-elected he would have decllued—that ho could not havo fone otherwiae after hia letter to tho Couven- :0n. Asa farthor evidence that ‘X. Y. Z."
