Sermon Reporting.
.. [to 188 EDITOR,I Sib, —The following local which appears in your ißßaa of yesterday does credit to tbe oreative power of the imaginition of jour reporter Rot, Eobert Wood preached a sermon dancing, in the Presbyterian Charoh yesterday morning, intimating that bulla me getting more popular than bibles in the town. As newspaper readers generally value fact more than fiction in news columns, I may remark (1) That 1 did not preach a sermon against dancing, (2) I made no comparison between tbe rotative popularity of balls and bibles, (8) I did not give utterenoo to a sentence on the Tightness or wrong- ■ ness of dancing ptr «. A osefal sermon on the relation of Christianity to dancing and other amusements might be preached; and if your reporter would kindly publish a report of the Imaginary " sermon against dancing " come good night be done. Purhaps '' jour reporter mi# see bis way also to mention the subject oF tbe actual sermon that I preached last Sabbath morning.—! am, etc., Eobebt Wood. Hanee, Ootober 25. [Why does not tbe Rev. gentleman tajLis briefly what lie really did eajf—Ed. W.D.T.]
