FRfDaY MORNING. SEPT. II, 1877

us to publish. in this mornings Gazette ,bs 7
tract from the National Intelligence, which ~ n
be found in another column. We do thu. r 20
the more pleasure, because it gives US sa,,t,cf'.
at all times, to add our humble testimony in f,r.
of the character. both public and private. Of ~
Editors Of that truly National aud IndeDea5s.''
print. We trust we may be excused fos reier,;''
particularly to the senior Editor of the Intei,.t
Ger. who has been the subject Of the mslevc7...
attacks of the Telegraph; aud whose calm. dion
fed and conclusive reply. we copy. WheEr =.
see such a man as JosEPH GALES abused and ~
Illuminated by such creature as Duff Green ~,
are sorry even to put their names in 80 clo.. ,
connexionl @e cannot remain silent.
| The public must have perceived with wh.tr.
tinacty and cffrontery the editor of the reerr,,.
has pursued his system of guerilla warfare as,1r
the Editors Of the Intelligencer, aud The I,,,.
itself. He has left no art untried TO lnure g.,
standing and the character Of their journal. VIZ
want of principle, perfectly characteristic. A,
an indelicacy, shocking to any hoporable and W.
regulated mind. he has pried into the private N
cuniarv concerns Of his neighbors. and bIaz0,s
their misfortunes TO the world. Sodissl,,insss
been his course in this particular, that the selt.
men of his own party begin 10 ioah bis yery nan,
To all this. the intelligence has remained .l,t
| An Irish wit was wont to say that you might WIS
tie with sweep, and throw la, but that yoav,,
sure to get your coat soiled in the cncOun,., =
| This fact has habits effect. Emho!ened. hs
ever. by previous attempts, the TELEGRAPH hs
of late, recommended with double force. t, .
lumnies. There is limit, at which fo.5eaa,,
ceases to be virtue, and accordingly The Ind.
iisencer has replied in an article. part Of viii
we publish. and the whole Of which is well uo.
reading. as specimen Of digniied rejuata
| vulgar attacks.
| Those who are acquainted personally viii \
senior Editor of the Intelligence, can e,iaa
correctly the charges Of the Telegraph. Inas
DAYS it was our fortune to be politically opys.
| to him; vet we ever found him an honOr7t.g |
generous opponent. Retaining all our rs
| ciplcs, we cannot but admire the steadinea a..
constancy with which he has trumphant,ae
Gated all the doctrines Of his party. A.aE
itor, we appeal to the public, il he i, notuin
| ly mild and correct-never INDUCING IN srs
personalities: curling his feeling where Other rs
would have suffered them to run riot, and t
cilating even his enemies by his courtesy artp
likeness. Ask his friends and neig hbOrs-l,sa
people of Washington what is his character. II,
il he deserves the reproaches Of hirein.s: A
any man who has an opportunity OF knoUlngLl |
and you will have an answer to the malgnanct H. |
sions Of bis opponent.
We have 40 intention of plastering the SEMI |
of the Inteiiisencer with our praise--he doesn't
need it, and we once more 5sk his pardon lHn
ferring to him in this public manner.
The Inteligencer, the public will peree-sI
not as its enemies would have Us believe. h'1
long continue. we trust, under the guidanai
its present Editors, to deserve the support Il
countenance of the American people, ped
who should scorn scurillity, proagacy ands
Iumny, even though they should be Upheld
power, and exhibited in all their hateful dtF
nifty daily through the columns Of the "Cf'4
Government Journal, published at the ,eat6g'
ernmcnt."
To,on HaA-We are pleased that oar p'r

BILE room could be built upon the pillars ~
standing in the Market House. between the IL
Of the Washington Lodge and tn Old Cla'e
Chamber. The room would be about ~ lee

be an ornament to that part Of the square. y
estimated cost is about six hundred doIi'>,
