TO TILE EDITOR OF TfiE STANDARD.

Stit,—,ln a letter from Mr. John Bibby, in this day's Stan-
dard, commenting upon one which I had written ilk reference
to an adieittsement that has appeared. in most of the Liverpool
as well as in some of the Irish papers, announcing the formation
of a new steam-packet establishment, to be called the "Union
Steam-packet Company," he accuses me of lauding the com-
pany which I represent, and reflecting upon the respectability
of the new ohe,—l beg leave most distinctly to state, th..,„ bad
310 such intention; my only object was to repel the u (led
insiauatione against the City of Dublin Company PN ich the
promoters of the Union Company had thought 4 p to ens-
bodv in their advertisement.
To the other part of Mr. Bibby's letter, accusing me of sup-
pressing a part of the conversation that took place between us
idle' the advertisement alluded to had appeared, I have only,
in reply, to refer to the annexed copy of it; and leave it to the
public to decide whether they would have given me credit for
stating the truth if I had led them to believe that it was to be a
"private company." Mr. Bibby's name appeared in it as
Chairman a whole week before it was withdrawn.
