It were but fair to give publicity to Mr. Stillwell’s discourse as well ag those ‘on the other side,” and as it is not our intention to do so, some ex- planation may be useful. The reverend gentleman, in the first place, is a most infelicitous speaker. preaching, or reading divine songe—where piety, poetry and persuasion all unite to produée the con- trary—his utterance is rapid, hurried, and altogeth- er too flippant for any serious subject; above all for the weighty truths of religion.

Mr. Stillwell’s discourse was com- sed principally of extracts from the lectures oi ishop Hughes and Dr. Ryder, as published in the Herald; the remainder consisting of a running com mentary of his own thereupon; but the extracts were so frequently made use of, so glibly comment ed upon—so mixed up with each mixed with a random shot from himself—and al: this was done with such haste and flippancy, that it is not going too far to say that few could under- stand it and none could write it.
