Cincini Oct. 9.
Rd. Sir
Herewith I enclose the conclusion of the rejoinder to D. Wise my last correspodena? with you, was written during the confusion caused by removing into our ? House on 8th St. from our cuntry retreat. I should have mentioned to you and also noticed it in my article. One of the causes that urged me to the attempt of agitating a call for a conference. In a private conversation with a wealthy and influential person of our city, he remarks that if he were capable to write his sentiments, concerning some of the doubtful questions of that now agitate the public mind, he would try hard to get a conference composed of competent men, that would give their final verdict and satisfy all parties, he would cheerfuly subscribe 500$ toward the expenses connecting it & &, but as this was private I withhold his name. I have in this last, referd to a meeting lately held in lodge L., a two third was taken on the question of abolishing the 2d holiday it was carried to abolish 63. to reclaim 31 The Doctor is now going through the City canvasing for Signatures to pledge their names that they will close their business on Sab. I hope he may succeed, as yet he has but few names, ? he has not carried out any of his proposed measures. I have endeavord in my humble manner to show the character of the new minag. and to caution the public against its adoption, if you will endorse this or give the sentences a better expression, so much the better. I have put my name at and that of Cincin at the conclusion. 513 alone would do, but I wish it known, that there are numbers in Cincinnati who condemn the course persued by the Dr. & his colleagues, nor do they allow his paper to be considerd their Organ please to notice this, Mr. P. Bamberger says if you will send his a/c on, he will discharge it. I have filed the weekly Occident The whole of them did not reach me, I have collected the missing numbers. I am short of No. 10. Could you send this on and charge it—
In haste
Yours Very Respy
