After some hesitation, We concluded to
publish the communication of 'Honesty';
but we must again remind our friends,
IS We did few days ago, that il would be
much more agreeable to US ii they would be
little less personsl and little less lengthy.
The public are not really interested in the
quarrels Of individuals, though they may
read the replications and rejoinders Of the
combatants with the same kind Of attention
that 10 given to those who make an exhibi.
ton oftheir physical prowess for the amuse-
ment Of the crowd. The discussion Of
questions interesting to the community is
one thing. indulgence in personalities ID
another and 4 very different thing, and
while we are pleased to receive and publish
communications of the former class. we
must again say that we very reluctantly
print those Of the latter description.

APhilanthropis Potato Merchant.

The Ferre Haute American relates an
anecdote Of canal boat captain, who
brought load Of potatoes 10 market q, tina,
place, which is worth repeating. He sold
his potatoes at one dollar and twenty-five
cents per bushel when the price in tow
had been all along two dollars and twenty
i've cents. As soon as the Spectators
heard OF his low prices, one Of them broke
for the boat 10 buy the load. He offered TO
take the whole cargo at the captains price,
but that impracticabie indy dual refused to
SELL and thus lectured the speeuIator on the
sin Of "forestaliing" the market: "Sir
Will not cell the potatoes 20 any specula,or
or monopolizers-ihey were brought here
for the use Of persons v it'll families, and
not for &c ntlemen OF your lk."

THE r. /. POST OFFICE.

The papers Of our sister city, Rock Island,
write like there was good deal Of difficulty
over there in getting a Postmaster. They
use very strong language in discussing the
subject, and as far as we can understand
the argument on both sides, something
serious will happen to the Democratic par
ty in the region round about Rock Island
City, il the man mentioned, be made Post
master.
We are sorry to notice such acerbity Of
feeling among our contemporaries across the
water. We have no such difficulties here.
Our Postmaster, though of different po-
liticsl faith from that which We profess, is
a gentleman, and manages the business
of his Office to the general satisfaction of
the community. But we have no disposition
to laugh at the cslamities OF our neighbors,
some people are as much bound to have
misfortune and troubles, as the sparks are
to fly upwards,-and we can only hope that
our trans Mississippi friends will be able to
settle their difficulties without bloodshed.
FLouK.-A correspondent Of the NJ
Tribune makes the following estimate Of
the number of barrels of -four in the country
of ,he opening of the Lake navigation,
reckoning five bushels Of wheat as equiva-
lent to one barrel of flour; Lake Michigan
$1,000; Lake Erie 100000 Cana1a 5O0,-
600; total l,456,ooo. This affords little
prospect of famine. The Tribune adds ::
Suppose 456 900 barrels to be absorbed
by the destitute points in the interior, and
we shall then receive at Underwater one mil
lion barrets-enough al the rate of winter
consumption, 500 barrels per day, 10 last
one hundred and twenty FIVE days, or until
the middle Of next Eepte mber. With a
favorable prospect of good crop all over
the country, there is not shadow ofreason
for any alarm about short supply.
