The Right Spirit.

By Editor

We love to receive communications from those who feel from the heart to accord to us the full liberty in disposing of them that is expressed in the following. We believe it to be just the right spirit, making their transactions with the Office pleasant, both for themselves and the editor. A correspondent writes:
“Bro. Smith: Let me thank you for your help and patience in preparing and binding my scattering thoughts; and when I send you articles that are too rambling for publication, please cast them out, or tell me to keep them at home. It will all be right with me.
“Please excuse penmanship. Perhaps my hand will be steadier when I get well over tea.”
With the penmanship of this note, we had no fault to find. But even if it had been faulty to such a degree as to render an appeal to our guessing powers necessary, we are prepared to exercise the largest amount of patience and forbearance toward those who give evidence that they are making commendable efforts in the good work of reform.
