The above, Mr.. Editor, is language which has been
attributed to Gen. Alfred Dockerys and which, it is
salo, ne used on the following occasions, gtsgsisan
while the General was member of Congress- a
couple OF his constituents of the highest respectable
~, called upon him in Washington City; of them
was from the Eastern and the other from the Western
part OF his District, After the usual interchange of
elvIities, the General enquired to the news in
Richmond and being informed that there was MOTH
ing In Particular, but that certain Docto. c.. was
about to remove into the Generals neghborhood, he
lGen. Dockery) then remarked that he was glad to
hear its that his neighbors were'' yoHgh, unpublished
Peop-gOOd people to be sure-but such ,oould
IKE to haze family associate iu;th.'' sao sr
Now, Sir, as one of Gen. Dockery's former con-
stituents, should like be informed whether this
charge is true for if it be, who knows but what
second election to Congress may far the poor
Generals head to cause him to indulge in fouts
and in insulting taunts the ignorance and unpolis
ed roughness of his entire constituency. Yes, he
may exclaim in regard them, as he is accused of
saying (and as believe he did say) of his neghbor-
hood 8. They are a rough, unpublished constituent
cy-good people to be sure-but not such as would
like to have my family associate with.'' -A" g
We wish to give the General the opportunity of
mailing to the counter this report if untrue and
call his attention to the rumor,'' for which we do
not vouch, but which at the time we believe to
be true. If it untrue, let the General in his public
Speeches brand the author IS lar' in his usual
polite language, and it may be that the charge will
be proved upon him. CROSS CREEK.

TIE NEWSPAPER. The definition of this cheap
est of all Injuries, is thus given by Bulwer, the nov
eiist .. s. .--
"The newspaper is the chronicle of civilization,
the common reservoir into which every stream pours
its living waters, and at which every man come
and drink 1t is the newspaper which gives to liberty
it's practical lif its perpetual vigilance, its unweary
ing activity. The newspaper is daily and sleepless
watchman, which reports to you every danger.which
menaces the institutions of country, and its in
terests at home and abroad. The newspaper informs
Legislators Of the public opinion and informs the
people of the acts of legisators-thus keeping up
that constant sympathy and good understanding be-
tween the people and the Legislators which conduces
to the maintenance of order, and prevents the stern
necessity of revolution. The newspaper is law
book for the indolent, for the thoughtess,
library for the poor"
