A few Hemarks on a Pamphlet eiifilled " Mr. W. JSichohoii's 

 " Attack, in his PhilosopLical Journal, on Mr. Winsor an4 

 " ike JSluiional Light and Heat Company, ivith Mr. Wirisor'i 

 " Defence" — 12ino. 56 pages. 



VLr, Winsor's 

 pamphk't la:e- 

 ly published. 



R. Wiivsor seems to have overlooked the observations in 

 our Journal for January last, as long as prudence and the in- 

 quiries of his visitors would allow him to follow that mode of 

 conduct. After having answered a question of public imjwr- 

 tance openly and without reserve, in my own name, as every 

 man ought, where the character of another can in any respect 

 be brought in question, I may be allowed to decline all contro- 

 versy^ and leave Mr. Winsor's claims upon me and upon the 



world.
