awful, died a few days before.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Mr. Ludlam's Essay on Providence: the Letter to a Methodistical
Clergyman; and several other valuable favours will appear in our next
Number.

Our good friend M. A. may be assured, that we have never received
any of the Coinmunications which he mentions. Had they come to our
hands, we should certainly have paid due respect to them. Part of the
Letter signed, "No Methodist," cannot with propriety be inserted; but
as the remainder is not in the same predicament, we will, with the
writer's leave, give it a place in our next.
