Nlessrs. Ediiors.-Kuowng that Skunk il some.
times iuntensive, especially if carefully handled,
thought would once more look into thai most co tmu
tbl5 liuug called the "IuscarawaS Advocate, aud
how The editor proSparec after helng based and RIB
roasted hy you IN measure he deserved. Think
Ing might find dig at yOH on account of your just
exposur ol his vlllInY, Immediately looked over
hi, numerous columns of editorial. But instead of
finding the "gone editor kicking at YOU | perceived
he had ucked INTO one corner some GaSlardy sneaking
SLY "llark Ye' slang whang, at some else, Now
this reminded Of the little boy that said to his stout
schooIellow,-"Well lfl cant lick you, III make
mouths at youfslsler, 50 will" In like Manner aud
with similar bravery Mr.. Advocate says-''You dig IN
TO me most too hardi but whn can d0i III reply to
you know shall only be running my hands into lot
water for perceive "Sc0URdrGL has tod you all
about my dttcats character, aud The last end of my
will be than the first My only safe conrse
is To charge il to some other person. aud then perhaps
the "Democrat' will icacems be- Now see how he
dues it, lear him. "SRpposc we reply to the op.
plot scoundrel" Yes, coward like he dare not take
able bodied man-one who can take his foot to him
iIneeds be; but suppose select cripple and if he
tells the honest minded people Of ruscarawas any thing
more about their "Adoocae" may be ran muster up
courage enough to tell him III lick him, Jr at all events
lcan make up mouths at his Sister, aud he dare not
touch me. Then again mlstakiug his own character
for that uf some else like the Rooster that fought
himself through looking glass; he TALKS Of dragging up
some nle ''pgmy puppy," as if he had concluded he
dare not ouch man, or cripple nay mo hot even
good sized masli but thinks perhaps he can Greer up
behind nIle puppy catch hi by the tail and run
What couragel Wonder why he did not get inO Ma

your town? why really, his gzzard' would have asmuch
room TO play upon the point ola cambric needle. rs

you persuade that lion like editor not to carry out his
"supposliOns lest he should look so much like little

way the few wings that still cling to him.
In reading over the article alluded TO- I was cunvin>
ced the little Hero had been most woiully bitten a.
gain.-nr you have duubessy noticed that when the
steam little too hot, he begins to complain OF
secret engineer and 10 pile his congomeratel bom
bas upon shadow Instead Of the substance. II were
one ofhis conscience keepers should advise hin to
hold you responsible for all that appears as editorial
sander or no SANDER But it seems this would not
suit his purpose He wants te talk big abo,t body
in the dak and make hls country readers think he is
storming fort when he is only reeng up against a
tavern sign post. But just tell him for US, that he is
barking mp the wrong Sapling; too well acqual
ted with the 'old Coon, to be guIed in this way. In
stead of believing what he says about others scrbbing
your editorials, we only say" "Somehing has Bit Pat
agn." Nor are we afraid ofhs making any one else
believe, hut as the fellow said when The dog stole his
bread and butter-"t Is the disposition Of tie bitch,
hate " However, five are mistaken and If any one
ee does write what You claim your own. we wish
Mr.. Advocate would give us their next tme anc
net sneak round the bushes making cowardIy insinua
tions aud suppostons.
