What nave taey said to lnvalidate my asser-
ton of their establishments las they Pompously
term i'll being bat few months IN existence
sNOTHING.-What, to disproye that they
have meanly endeavored TO taniter with my
AGENTS in va,Tous places NOTHING.
They said they had ne. ryithdrazpn an equi-
vocal advertisement, and say there IS not an
editor in Baltimore but will pronounce TIA
downright falsehood," and then appeal TO my
conscience, and my agent, sc.--l have given
the dates Of the publications, the time sS''ea
the equiyocal advertisement svas nathaTasf1'
and an extract from the letter OF this same d
gent, to whem they had the bareiaced lmpu-
dence to appeal; these all flrove, and Mr. Pe-
chia,s file fin this instances EiH demonstrate
their deliberate herve,,sion Of truth all tnas
they reply-NOTHING. Full proof OF the
faIsehood of their insinuation respecting my
brothers employment, Is before the pubic

ed nv brother saw in Baltimore the Original

THING: and in saying nothing, they act with
that cautious cunning which always marked
their conduct they fear examination, Z shut
iic of. from one thing TO another, ior investl-,
CATION is what they dread. The TACT Is, that
several persons in New York, and one person
WIN, is now in Baltimore, worked IN the same
apartment with R. l.. and Son. These per-
sons can prove, that r. T.. ard Son worked IN
no other dhart,neat man rvhat zaas common TO all

Twill produce satisfactory proof here, and re-
fer to n. r. the person now in Baltimore.
RI. and Son pretend they wish people to
enquire into eaeir private characters, II sup
pose by way of extenuation} They ought
TO know that even IL their private characters
were esteemed good, it would not affect the
hroofI have addrced of their falschood, nor
charge he into truth. Ii the public really
did kaszu their private characters, lwoald ne
yer trouble myself to answer any lies they
chuse to print. No person can confer on me
greater favor than by making tie enquiry K.
L. and Son requests. Let theenquiry be made
in any neighborhood where they have hereto
