Me Editor:—Two processes
ot reasoning lead me to exactly
opposite conclusions, Oan you,
or some ot your readers, show
me which is fallacious ?
1st. When a man does an act
which is public-spirited or be-
nevolent, yon publish it with-
out tear ot giving oflence. If
the act is disgraceful, the doer
docs not like tc see it in prin\
Those young men who play bait
near the scliool'honse on Sun-
day would not like to have it
published that they were so en-
gaged. Therefore they must
regard the act as disgraceful.
2d. Some, at least, ot those
vouug men are tint*, gentleman-
ly, and belonging to the first
Church Directory.
