The promise made in last Sunday’s Dispatch, that a description should every week be given of some conventicle preacher noted for ignorance and absurdity, was at the time rather premature, and the fulfilment of it must be suspended for two or three weeks longer; because I wish to mark out a boundary of separation, like an impassable chasm, between the character I have hitherto been developing, and those I intend hereafter to criticise. However great may be the mass of folly, ignorance, and fanaticism, which prevail throughout most of the low conventicles of this metropolis, and however injuriously they may operate on the human mind, their effects are innocence and virtue, compared to the influence of that guilt which I have exposed, and which I am prepared to expose still more effectually in any Court of Justice. I believe that the poor silly visionaries who deal in pictures, in miracles, and monstrous conceits, are not wilfully or practically vicious, and that they have _lashed_ themselves into a belief, of what they preach; therefore I cannot think of dragging them forward so close upon the heels of Mr. John Church, as to hold out an appearance of their belonging to the same society. Some interval of time, therefore, is necessary for the distinction which I wish to draw. When I come to speak of them it shall be in a spirit of playfulness, and not with a feeling of abhorrence. Respecting the last mentioned person I should have been silent ever since the 18th ultimo, had he preserved that _silence_ which a sense of common decency would have pointed out to any other person, except himself. After having been held to bail for the purpose of being tried on charges not to be named among Christians, he ought to have abstained from entering his pulpit, and shunned the very light, until his character was cleared to the satisfaction of his congregation, who ought to have deemed it a sacrilege to be present while he attempted to promulgate the doctrines of Christ in a place of divine worship. But one would think there was a congeniality of sentiment and of _sympathy_ between the pastor and the flock! Indeed this latter remark is founded upon something more than conjecture: for a great number of persons who are in the habit of frequenting the obelisk chapel, have taken up the cause of their preacher with a zeal that cannot easily be accounted for in any way but _one_. They will investigate no charge; they reject all evidence. Their _Temple_ is open, and their _High Priest_ is in as much _favour_ as ever he was. They are, I am told, raising money to carry on prosecutions against those whom they call his calumniators; but it is probable that the money will be expended in _some other place_, besides Westminster Hall. I have been threatened with an action as will appear by the following notice, which was left at my office last Friday se’nnight, and which for the amusement of the reader I publish _verbatim_ and _literatim_.
