Tlie report, as far as published in your paper ot' the I 1th inst. is as 1 anticipated, very defective. Permit me to offer a few corrections, to assist the candid reader and impartial historian. I shall not notice every error of the press, but only such things as seriously obscure some important parts. I. In mv letter to the. Presbytery, the date is left out seven months after the charges were tabled. Ry this omission, one part of my address is rendered very obscure, in which I speak of needless delay. -2. Mothing is said in the report about tlie proceedings of Presbytery iu Apt i I last, when Dr. Re ,:licr i ni ,-o-f in ed iiiuiicious documents" to prove that I was not a competent pro-ecutot.
