Though he be an estimable man and a worthy teaclier, Mr. Porter or his friends should not assume that he baa a right to the liead mastership, in perpetuity. That all violators of law â€" Criminal, Social, Moral or Divine â€" assume others, though perfectly innocent, to be equally as guilty as they are them- selves, is a well known fact; there- fore, A Parent,hj attributiEg unworthy political motives, to the trustees, has left themselves liable to tlie suspicion of bping a member, possibly the leader of a despicabie political clique.
