"Justitia" And Bro. Garrod.

I again charge " Justitia" with having used " terms of scurrility , " and that he has " descended to contemptuous expressions towards Bro . Whitmore . " He says , the cause he has felt it his duty to support , does not requi , the aid of such unmasonic means , ancl wherever scurrility , contemptuov ' . expressions , or opprobrious epithets , are employed , we may bo certain

that the cause is bad , or that its advocates have entirely lost then- temper ; and declines following such examples . Surely such oF your readers who have taken the trouble to peruse this letter of " Justitia , " must sec that he has evaded the point at issue . He says a bad cause is involved in the use of certain terms , or had temper in its advocates , without informing us whether his cause or temper suffered , when he penned those expressions which first led me to address you !

" He declines following "—precisely so , having taken the lead . As I before said , his letter of 25 th May illustrates his scurrility and contempt towards Bro . Whitmore . The present one aptly demonstrates his utter disingeiiuousness .

I may note , by the way , the style of composition followed by " Justitia , " which begging the question throughout , glares and glitters in the eyes of those who glance over it inattentivel y , not weighing it by the strict rules of reason ; and would suggest that a talent of this description has its evils . Let him remember the fate of Milo the Crotonian , who though able to reach the oak , was the victim of his own strength . I am , dear Sir and Brother , yours fraternally , II . GARROD , No . 11 ,
