ABOUT THE PIPE LAYERS,

Last week we noticed that more disclosures were a.
bout to be made concerning the pipe layers of N. York,
notwithstanding injunction had been issued, 10 pre-,
vent their publicity The following we find in the last
Globe:
The gentleman in possession of Mr.. Mitche's cor>
respondence with the Pipe Layers has put out the fol.
lowing notice. 1t seems that the injunction obtained
by the guilty is not likely to avail them: Globe
81 now state, in most unqualified terms, that so far
as have any influence or control these letters,
they shall be fully exposed TO the public except what
reites 10 female character. notwithstanding Mr.. MUIR
ray Homan's Interference. inasmuch consider it
public duty to expose the principles of men so entirely
unworthy of the confidence of Government; and as
know that If the Wig party do not respond to the pros
priety of this course, it will FULLY meet the appreciation
of the Democracy of the country.
Your ObcdIent servant,
