Ruggles, and has had equal opportunities ; and he asserts that the above positions are true.
If then the foregoing be a just exposition of the true intent and force of the act of the Trustees, as an expression of their judgment upon the relative merits of the candidates, what becomes of the cry of religious persecution — of rejection for opinions' sake ? If Dr. Gibbs was not pre-eminent in the opinion of the Trustees — and upon their opinion the question depends, — then it was their duty to cho...ose as they have done, him they thought best qualified. And Dr. Gibbs was not, as has been arrogantly claimed, rejected. Yet this allega- tion of intolerance, though without legitimate place in this controversy, has its end to serve, like many other means resorted to witli the same intent. Of those, as indicating the true motive of the present attack upon the College, we will hereafter speak. So also it is evident that there is no perti- nency to the matter in hand, of all that Mr. Ruggles so elo- quently writes of the objects of the College — the purposes of its creation — its alleged past culpable neglect of Physical Science — its duty to the public, and the great need for the faithful performance of that duty — its present indifference.
