Il i, a long time since we have referred to the
o,ipions of the Telegraph, because, although
.,eled the ssofficial Government Journal, it
,l,,rly has not the confidence of those whom it
sdeayOrs to support. We now cite from It's
irritable columns, an amusing specimen Of con-
tr,jiction in language and sentiments, showing
that the cOmpiistOrs of Its editorials articles do
no, themselves know exactly how to chime in
with each other.
In the Telegraph of Wednesday we, have the
following:
It's in thi, point of ,iew.-it is as attacking
Nr. JefersOn's memory-that we are to consid-

systematic warfare has been carried on. by GER

Erm North, South, Est and West. cOncen-
rc fire is poured in.
For the letter ,criiers from Washington"
this celebration has been fruitful theme for mis-
and the old federal prints and
heir Young progeny have sreedlly received and
pOplsated them.
Il an article Immediately succeeding the one
tum which the above extract Is taken. we have
he following, upon quite different tack-the
telegraph still speaking of the celebration:
Many prints of neighboring cities. have assum-
I'll, not merely mysterious silence, but have
scarcely mentioned the festival! Even the idle,
abbling, frivolous letter writers, have been
dumb, or have held back their bright iacubrations
Or have had them suppressed. Now, why this
mighty effort to rival the '.mysteries of Udolpho?"
Wny all this trickery, mummery and charlata-
n,n:
We would advise Duff 20 supervise the edito-
raj articles which his kind friends furnish him
with, or at least, to adopt some plan for not tel
linz two different tales, in one, and the same pa
per, about the same thing. Our readers will rea-
dill see the contradictions, INTO which these par
