His father, poor man, intended him for the

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL
THos. Richie, Esq.

The article which we append below shows
very distinctly that selfinterest has prompted
divers city papers to assail the Postmaster Gene
raj for the rigid and faithful discharge of his
duty. The country presses, those whose lnte-
rests are not affected one way or the other by
the enforcement of the law relative to the trans
portaion of matter out Of the mails, doubtless
regard the question more impartially and with
greater justice than any other
We do not say the law on the subject is a
good one; we do not say that the act Is not Oh
noxious 10 just complaint; but we do say that the
Executive officer deserves praise instead of cen
sure for enforcing the law as he finds it--anl
none the less credit for having the nerve 10 dc
so when the law is bad one. The letter We
published yesterday, shows that the Attorney
General agrees with the Postmaster General il

ter from Mr.. Calhoun--receyed by yesterday morn

Dear Sir-I write this to correct the mistake you
made, in supposlng that in my letter to gentleman
Of North Carolina on the subject Of the Tariff,
published in The Enquirer Of the 7lh instantly re.
ferred to my letter 10 Mr.. Nicholas Of louisiana,
published in the article. The letter referred to
was to Mr.. Delaney Of Louisiana, and was in an
to one containing an inquiry similar to one adj
dressed to me from North Carolina. The answer to
Mr. Nicholas was 10 one on very different subject
IL you had adverted TO dates you would have avoided
the mistake. The North Carolina letter refers TO
one recently written. it is dated the Gath SePtem-
Der last and the letter to Mr. Nicholas 7th May,
1912, more than fifteen months before. 4 =
| regret the mistake. Unauthorized liberty has
been taken with my letter TO Mr. Nicholas, by print

glaring capitals, calculated to make the impression

and that too, by editors protesting to be opposed 10

purpose directly against the plain import OF my let
ter. The protection Of which spoke IS expressly
stated to be, not against foreign competition, but
against the Vaccinations of the opponents OF slave
labor" INTENDED simply to say, that would resist

made to take off or reduce the duty, that foreign
sugar ought fairly to pay, revenue principles, on
the ground of discouragng the domestic article be-
cause it was the product Of slave labor.
What regret in your mistake is that it is calcu-
lated to strengthen the false impression made by the
unauthorized Italics and Capital letters, not only by
publishing my letter with them but still more strong
y by publishing the referred TO in my North
Carolina letter. in confirmation and calculation Of my
opinion on the subject of protection.
As it is my wish to be fully and explicitly under

quest you to publish what have written, in the En-
