SIR: The readers of The n. Y. WEEKLY TRIBuss
are senray disposed regard with confidence the invitations
through It's advertising columns for the patronage OF
and subscribers We suppose that ' Editors would
carefully exclude Humbug and Fraud Y far they possibly
eoudeefore when business houses advertise soc ts or
der from the couOtry Just 70 believe ihAt %
have en- eouductedb BY honorable business men,
South Bend Ind, sept 49, 1854
Our correspondent goes on 10 say that he saw
book advertised in THE TRIBUNE by Messrs so-and'
So and sent them the price of it, but though he has
repeatedly written for il, has not received the book
whence be concludes that they are swindlers-snd
this seems to US toerably safe inference though it
may be Incorrect
But this is not the point. We write merely to pro-
test utterly and for all time, against our correspon-
dents assumption that il is or may fairly be expected
that we should guarantee the responsibility, sovency
and honesty u all who advertise in our columns
We do nothing Of the sort, and never undertook to
do il. 1--we have reason to suppose that fraud IS
medita.ed by or involved in any advertisement ten
dered u.s. we will exclude il; but large portion OF
our advertisers are absolute strangers, OF whom we
know no more than Of our munnurng correspondent.
Ii an advertisement on its face is immoral OF decep-
tive. or contemplates violation of the laws, our or
ders require it, exclusions but the Editors of The
tribune do not even the advertisements published
in these columns until they read them in the printed
sheet. Now let this point be everrnore understood,
that we DO not guarantee the upnghtness OF our id
yertisers, but leave each one to speak for himself.
The fact that they choose THE TRIBUNE for an adver-
Using medium proves their sagscty; LET their conduct
and regulations respectively testify as to Their H.
taQrity
