FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 5, 1842.

We have trod upon the sore foot of our contempo-
rary, the Manchester Guardian, and that veracious
ournalist is, as we expected, in an awful passion.
We cannot help it. If the Manchester Guardian will
suffer a local faction to ride him with a curb, he must
not complain if other people occasionally tell him of
the fact, however unpalateable it may be.
The Guardian's attempt at a reply to us is a farrago
of rubbish, worthy only of so stupid and dishonest a
journalist. It is worse than rubbishy. It is dishonest
and lying. This is a very plain, and perhaps impolite
term; but it is the only one which meets the justice of
the case. The Guardian says :—" We received last
Friday our own American papers, together with the
STANDARD and the Mercury, each containing extracts."
The post edition of the Mercury, which our contempo-
rary would receive, together with the STANDARD,
contained (owing to that paper going early to press)
no extracts. Again, the Guardian says, " the selection
in the STANDARD was bungling and slovenly, and
scandalously dishonest." The selection in question
was almost verbatim from the " mail edition" of the
New York American ; and its only dishonesty con-
sisted in its containing facts which suited not league
journalism. Our contemporary, however, had " his
own files." Why did he not use them ? and why,
using our summary, did he garble it ?
We like the morality of the Guardian, as acknow-
ledged on this occasion. " When copying statements
of facts, or alleged facts, from other papers," the
Guardian opines that he is " not bound to copy any
foolish, or unfounded, or impertinent remarks, with
which the writer may have chosen to interlard them."
The admiSsion here, to any one who knows the shifty
Gaardian, is simply, that when that veracious organ
copies the statements of any journalist, English or
foreign, he is not in the habit of bringing before his
readers more than may happen to jump with his or their
particular ways of thinking. Anything beyond is
" foolish" and " impertinent."
Most sincerely do• we pity the Guardian. He has
hard masters. But we really cannot permit him to
earn an interval of ease by falsifying the statements of
other journalists, or by throwing dirt at ourselves.
Let our contemporary be honest, and then we may
respect him.

At the meeting of the Dock Committee yesterday,
we fully expected to have been favoured with some
explanation of the charge against the Dock Surveyor,
by Mr. Chapman. Possibly the absence of the Chair-
man of the Committee may be, in point, the reason of
this explanatfon not being afforded. We suspect,
however, a disinclination on the part of the Surveyor,
and a party in the Committe, to approach the dis-
cussion of the subject of dock engineering. " Caw
me, caw thee," is a very old game, at which surveyors
and proprietors of whimsies have played before now;
and it is quite possible that an alderman or two, who
are, by accident, members of the Committee, may
deem it a fitting reward for past subserviance to their
opinions and projects to burke any enquiry into the
truth of a charge which the Dock Surveyor's flippancy
has brought upon his head.
We must, however, impress upon the Committee the
fact, that this matter cannot be evaded. It is quite as
much necessary for their justification in the eyes of
their fellow-townsmen and their constituents, as it is
for that of their Surveyor, that that gentleman should
not lie under an imputation of incapacity, and some-
thing worse, one moment after an opportunity for dis-
proving or explaining it has presented itself.

We purposed saying a few words upon the subject
of the proceedings in Wednesday's Council Meeting.
We shall not do so. We shall not, at least, enter upon
any lengthened remarks, for to Conservative readers
no comment is necessary. The report in our columns
will speak for itself. The bad temper—the bad taste
—the bad animus of the Liberal faction in the Council
—are there sufficiently displayed without a word of
ours to hold them up to notice. The mulish insolence
of a Bolton, the waspish impertinence of an Earle,
the superhuman silliness of a Bright—the absurdities
of the herd of senseless animals who represent Liberal
opinions in the Council, are far too obvious to the
world to need our or any finger to point to them.
There is one gentleman, however, who distinguished
himself on Wednesday, to whom we must address a
word or two. Some year or two ago the Conservative
constituency of Great George's Ward returned as their
representative a person of the name of ROBINSON.
Who is this Mr. Robinson, we ask, and what is he ?
He is not a Conservative. Of that, at all events, we
are assured. He is not a man with the intellect of a
hedge-hog. That we are certain of too. He has, in
fine, as much claim to represent any constituency more
enlightened than the live cargo of a Belfast steamer,
as Mr. Wm. Earle would have to represent the Apollo
Belvidere.
