our town on Saturday last, but have been spared
the trouble by our witty correspondent "specta-
orr whose letter to us on the subject we give at
length. lie writes in plquant and queer style

rectnoss Of the delinoatons, We leave the reader
to Judge The position in which he places that
profound politician, the "Argus editor" after he
