There were low mutterings of the coming storm of disapprov«l at the first mention of the names of leading **antis,” while the com | mendatory letters and points made by the | speaker in his own favor were received with | cheers and hand-clapping. | The audience was a study almost as inter- | esting as the proceedings on the stage. Church | members and “heathen,” grey haired deacons land small boys, women richly and women plainly dressed, all classes and conditions | seemed represented, and geve expression to | their sentiment at every opportuvity. Curi- j osity had shown its powers to zsccomplish | what the prospect of a tine sermon or eloquent lecture could not have done, Nearly all the seats on the lower floor were filled, while many stood in the rear, apparently uncertain whether to remain or not, but tinaily were attracted in. The speaker in his argument teuched nearly every nete in the gamut of eloquence. ‘‘From grave to gay, from lively to severe,” from af- fecting appeal to the most violent denunci- ation, from sarcasm and irony to pathos; from calm, argum=ntive tones to the loftiest strain of +loquence he led the way, and the audience, or a large majority thereof, followed in the same spirit. The Republic and Sun gives an abstract of the address, which it says was something after the style of an attorney for the de- feuce, as tollows: He regrets to disturb the people with these hings, but it seemed to be necessary to vindi- cate the church and himself. I am not an a iventurer, 1 have standing in the saptist Church in Prince Edward Island. To substantiate this, Mr. W hitman read let- ters from the clerk of the church at Hants- port, ce rtifying his good character. A'so ove from the senior deacon to the same effect, and he knew him four years at Lockport before, where he was al} right. tev. J. H. Buarho, of Rockford, IIl., writes that he knew Whitman at Charlottetown; his standing was the highest. Mr. Arthur Simpson, of Charlottetown, President of the Bap ust Convention, writes that he knew Whitman six years. He was without repreach, Rev. A. H. Lavers, of P. E. Island, knew Whitman seven years at P. E. Island. He was successiul, and won the highest esteem of the people All the Protestant Ministers of Charlotte. town uniced in a letter commending him in the highest terms He scored Mr. Vance for saying that these letters were forgeries. Mr. Isaac Oxenham, secretary school board, certifies a8 above Mr. Theo. L Chappelle certifies that Mr. W bitman’s conduct was ever above reproach. Mrs. M. P. Kennedy was sorry not to ree him on bis visit. Sjmpathized with him in his troubles. That man Russ was trying to do harm to you at the trial. He read a testimonial from 100 citizens of Charlottetown, of every grade, to his high character. This p'per was received with ap- plause. Mr. G.

Mr E. E. Howerd had that letter. He would not let me have it. It was a fo; gery. Mr. Howard wilted under my gaze. He and his friends are very cunning. hev couid have it copied in Chicago for $5. Howard knows who did it. He paid his respects to Russ, the Summer- side hotelkeeper, a busy body, @ man who would swear to a lie, who would pray and get drunk, who sells rum, and is a liar and a bad man generally. His testimony was paid for by money from Joliet, by a man who has said he would spend. $2,000, would spend his whole fortune to drive Whitman out of the town, Whicman described the Baptist people of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, as the scum of the earth, whom money would hire to do anything. They held me to be untruthful because I denied their charges. We did not unite in the exparte trial, be- cause ali the questions had been decided by the charch, I wish I hed been there. I would have made it lively for them, but | stand by the church and the church stands by me, I want to thank the citizens of Joliet for the kindness you have shown me, a stranger in your midst. 1 am going to live and diein Joliet, God helping me, and prove to you that I am ae of your respect and support.
