For the Poriage Sentinel.


: GEsfLEMEN:-It 1t has been thought -neces.
sary to reply TO an editorial in the Portage
County Democrat? of last week, (which refers
to some communications that had been sent
to It, concerning a certain article in the
Plain Dealer, by one N. c. NJ, who, he
says: "keeps a filthy Rum hole in Hiram. f"
The truth is, that N. c, M. keeps an estab-
lishment for the!Sale of country Merchandise
generally; and It is well known hus as va
ried assortmentas is usually in country places
Until within few weeks it has been the on.
ly general trading establishment ever kept
in Hiram, and having been anxious to supply
the people with whatever they wanted, has
kept some liquors which is nothing remark
able for a store, either in Hiram, or any 9TH
erp place. The terms used by the Demniocrat
amounts to what is constructively false in ey-
cry particular, because they convey an idea
that said Rum Hole" is a place where
scarcely any thing but liquors is sold, aud is
only visited by drunkards and vagabonds. 1t
must then be seen, that the editor OF the
of the Democrat, has been misnformed,. and
that, Of course, his statement is unintentional.
1t is not denied but there are subjects, of dif.
ference in Hiram, much to be regretted, but
since an opportunity is now offered to adjust
them in the most friendly manner, any fur
ther comment would ut this time, be im-
proper. N. C. NJ.
