"v A CONTRADICTION. I respectfully beg leave to contradict a local in the Evening News of last Thursday, regarding some nonsensical remarks touching temperance and the pledge, attributed to the Bishop of Lincoln. The following is copied from the Times into the Alliance News of the United Kingdom, July 22nd : “To the Editor of the Times. —Sir : A paragraph having appeared purporting to report the contents of a letter from me to the Mayor of Grimsby on the temperance pledge, may I beg the favor of you to state that I have never written any letter to the Mayor of Grimsby; and that I entirely disavow the words ascribed to me ? May I also take this opportunity of making an appeal through you for the Church of England Temperance Society in this diocese ? I am, Sir, yours faithfully, C. Lincoln.’’ To the above I may add that the Alliance News is to be seen in the Patea Institute. Oblige by inserting the above.— E. F. Miller. Patea, 2nd October,
