Kirk>Parck in hs Buzzard Adr0catc ufhs 9Th inst.
has thought proper to notice the Junior Editor of this
paper in peculiarly striking manner(D 1t was done
at the Instance Of logng tau1n keeper of this town,
and its substance shows plainly the soft places on the
Uranium of its Grey headed inSgaor, Of The balm tea
memory.
The article alluded 10 purporS to be a commuHica-
lion and is signed an Old Settler, but was written BY
the sGp.ient head ior Kirk Patrick himself It makes
some grave charges against uSp such as having 'ust
escaped from the skirts Of Queen Victoria, ,-"blaek-
guarding old Settlers talks about chip couts" lin
keeping with the MANI and wind winds up with shot
at the 'ons man power, which Pat hates when vested
in any one but himself
In reply to these worthless we would say that we are
from Bristol, Eigland-came to this country when
quite boy and became an American citizen BY virtue
of our fathers naturalization. We are not ashamed of
our orSindid not away from there to escape the
law did not jump the saIows and cheat the hang
nan out Of his Dues lop off part of our name slnce

The nonsense about Queen Victoria &c. is perfectly
harmless, as IL also hs whole of his slang agains, u.s.
and we him that shall not deter US in the least
from exposing his Viany and hypocrisy whenever oc.
may offer or duty require.
1t is perfectly in keeping with &lggery 10 abuse
foreSnsrr but should have thought that Pat, being
of that stamp HIMSELF would hardly haYe stopped to
such meanness. But he is sapabs Of anvthing, as hs
conduct has already proven. Does he remember when
he attempted by bribery to induce this SAME stripping
to leave bis then master, and by offer Of higher wa.

come and work for hint Blu. he spurned the pallry
fers and mean inducements Of this degraded being as
unworthy Of notice, and heneehis hatred as svlncsd
in this attack. "r ~ .. .
He speaks Of siandstihs 'old SstderS;" we have no
disposition TO do soi but If they suffer themselves 10 be
dragged before the public in order TO shield him, they
must bear The consequences and suffer quietly the re,
ward which such duplicty deserves.
As the election is now over and literary matter will
be more in demand than heretofore we give few
stanzas of poetry which will probably call up some
pleasing associations, and create soms happy emotions
in the mind Of the Advocate edtur-oadine him back

1t is scarcely necessary to go into detail Of the cir
Cumstauces that led to this poetic eision from Pat as
they are known to this community. The verses iun as
follows:
