RICHMOND Friday July a ls53
When the stupid, ignorant and profane scoier huris
bis slang and Obscepiy at others the good and the v
Gus il is the part of wisdom to let them rail- on consider
ing az the hon did Of the whence come oul When
men Of ard poeness in other respects descend
TO the lowest depths Of vugay and SANDER merely 70
grsfy the malice Of piQue, and this too IN regard 70
lady We NAV well deem them worthy Of rebuke. There
are two daily three or four secular weekly, and As
many as three religious O. papers published In THIS cry
OF the daiys The Dispatch VIC believe has the largest
circulation but The Mail far the most ably edited
am not acquainted with the editors Of either but pre-
sumo they are both gentlemen, and highminded men
Ofthe editor Of TIE Nal can say this much that he Is
very talented and eloquent man both Win h pen anu
By word Of mouth. His editorials are rich and racy.
But there is thing n his columns as indeed III tne
columns Of all the papers have mentioned, that much
regret TO see and that lie the almost daily attacks on
Mrs Stowe and Uncle Toms Cabin. When nothing
else will seryesDd these papers, some OF them al eas
are barren enough Of nteret-a scurrOus para
graph against the talented authOress be fabricated
almost without effort Fpced off with such choice terms
ss"Ars Harriet Breeches Stowe, MIS- Uncle Tom aud
cher tety little Dr. Mrs PetticOat Stove, and all
such grsceless and unmsnly SANDERS. They seem 10
reve IN the gall Of bitterness against TINS LADY Tor no
other reason that than because she has told
some unpalatable truths truths which have heard
scores even here admit. All this may be very mag
unanimous and chiyalTous in these gentlemen but among
others il would be the hight OF vulgary, and conde-
scension unworthy of all that constitutes the character
Of hipbnDded editor. But do these gentlemen know
-tbese Christian editors-that they can't write down
tutb-that its blaze will throw into Obscurty the DIM
ne,s OF their rush lights and arthing candles Whether
they do not ii is So and the blows that have been
stricken, by a wOmans hand, are being felt. And
as God makes even the wrath OF man to praise him,
"srd the rem ander restraints these editors only
helping the they batter against. and raising 10
honor and distinction the they heartily despse.
VIII they take the hint out of self respect and stop
diFeTacDg themselves snd their papers. We say these
things not because have any sympathy With the Gar
rsonian AbotoDsts of the North with any party bear
ing the name other than that highly respectable one in
the South who as much opposed % Slavery as any,
but who would do nothing but in legitimate way for its
removal. And can assure you that there are many
such.
The great heat here for couple of weeks past, has
seldom been surpassed in this climate. The Their
has ranged from 81 to lO5 0egree in the shade
Vegetation has been almOs, destroyed, and prices
high and the aTket very inferior. The grass in Capitol
square is burned enirey black in places, by the
suns intense rays We do not think that even Haale,
when be exclaimed 90 that this too solid flesh would
"melt, tbaw ard Dissolve could have found chocer
spot for this sinking process than away down i'll Old
"NIrginny." He should rather have sung
"oesny me. o carry me back
To GA Virginia shore ."
For day or two past, however, we have have had
frequent showers, and the air has got down to moder'
ate temperature.
The Fourth passed off here very quietly, should say,
comparing it with a NewlOIk or Il down East Fourth
Not squib WAS heard to break the silence Of the day,
and the voice OF gunpowGer was "siW for war" Tne
military out in fine display, of that 6JOjJ

up the bill and then marched down again, the bands
payed fine music 1--WE have got Of the finest
bands beIe) ate drank aud toasted aud specialized
and anttMaiue Lawed, but there no Bunker Hill,
Lexington, Concord. "Ud 10" in any shape, not
the least excitement among smalbeer ami ginger
cakes The day ended quietly, but one thing funny
TO see the negroes celebrating their Independence
