no God , but me , for there is no Saviour beside me . " Hosea xiii . 4 * He is the Saviour of Saviours ; of whom Isaiah says , xix » 20 . " he shall send them a Saviour , and a great one , and he shall deliver them , " From the general drift of sucli Epistles , of the same Annual Assembly , as I have seen in your

cause , and ingloriously desert its standard . Wishing its cause and yours , for its sake , every success , which may comport with the dispensations of unerring wisdom and boundless benevolence , I remain , your ' s , &c . AnUNITARIAN CHRISTIAN .
