"THE SECOND DEATH."

ET0 THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR:]

SIR,—Mr. Davies has recorded his belief that the doctrine of the tract which he has assailed is dying out. I should like to call his attention to another tract, of which a copy was sent to me a few days ago. Its title is, " Take heed what ye hear." It com- mences by inviting its readers " to get away from the Babel of tongues heard in Christendom, and to take their seat at the feet of Jesus, and listen to what he would say." After a reference to 2 Peter ii. 1, we find on p. 10 the following phrase :—" The damnable doctrines of the denial of the everlasting punishment of the wicked, [and] the doctrine of universal salvation."

I do not know whether it would further interest your readers to learn that as "an edition of the tract has been paid for by a brother in the Lord," it may be had gratuitously of W. B. Horner, Paternoster Square,fill the present edition is exhausted, or "so long as the Lord provides."—I am, Sir, &c.,
