To Correspondents.

By Editor

J. E. H.:—Your gun scatters. You do not come to any point. It was extremely difficult to tell in your first communication what you were aiming at, or what you desired to prove by your questions. It is very essential in an article to have the point to be proved kept in view, and introduce nothing but what is relevant to the question. For this reason your first and second articles are respectfully declined. In regard to your questions:—"Whether is easier to cease from transgression, or keep from bearing evil fruit," we will propound it in another form, and leave you to study upon it: Which is the easier, not to sin, or to keep from sinning?
