controversy with the lntelligencer in less than
three weeks. We replied that our columns
should not be the vehicle Of abuse AMI controver-
ses We now regret TO see our neighbor endea-

SIZES" How well you have KEEP, your promise,
Big Nush," how many weeks old was your little
| scavengers cart. before its columns were loaded
down to tho axle with filth and vile outpourngs
| upon various members Of the democratic party !?
How long after you made this promise, was it be.
fore your columns bore forth the hea rths Of our
friends an Infamous attack upon our private char
acler, from an irresponsible quarter! You very
willingly allowed yourself to be made the dirty
instrument Of another's wrath. And This too in
cold blood, and for it, you deserved to be kicked
from the society of the human species and com.
PEELED to herd among wolves and inckalls.

took no notice Of you, after which, we formed
our opinion of you, and concluded that the less
we had to do with you the more congenia it would
be to our feelings, and the more credtabls in the
end. Our silence gave you license, you grew
daring as you thought we grew unwary, and re-
peatcd, weekly. your notices and foul insnuatans MS;
and when the first lime we notice you, you below
out like great calf; and threaten us with your

men Of your calibre. We crave no aures, much
less seek them off of you; and hope that you will
stick to yorr promise of treating US with con.
tempt-sileK contempt.

Come TO my Arms. TO see the whig papers
Of this State, opening their boosums. to tho embra
ces of "forked" democrats is amusing. When
an aspiring politician is disappointed in getting
nomination to Congress and shoots off in a poul
at a nomination for tho Legislature, how quick
they open their thinned ranks, to receive him. Poor
whiggies, your ranks, like Mrs. Grammars starved
calf, will swell up 10 nothing and then die of.
" 1t has been asserted repeatedly in tho locofo.
co prints that Mr.. McMahon, of Baltimore, who
presided over the Young Mems National Conven.
ton in 1910, had deserted Mr.. CLAW. or the
truth of this assertion. we have seen no evidence,
nor do we believe a word of it, We call for the
proof. VIM. Cost johnson, the locofocos saw, has
also deserted Mr.. Clay. This is another fabrca-
tIon-another /" Alill.creek Caucus affair. Mr.
Clay has not more enthusiastic supporter in the
U. 5. than Mr.. Johnson" ."-Frontier Whig.
