~FERDNAsD JErYKRsoS, Esq.--In reply to the
card OF this gentleman in cur paper of yesterday,
We have to say that our reporter does not. in his
sketches OF the debates in the Board of Common
Council pretend to use the precise language used
by the gentlemen themselves. His object is TO
convey the ideas expressed by them. He Is OF
opinion that he reported correctly the substance Of
the remarks Of every gentleman made on Monday
last, whom he reported at all. In this belief be
is sustained by three members of the Board who
were present and participated in the debate and
he has no doubt that he would be by others had
he an opportunity TO consult with them.
D1sxrssEp.--Horace s. johnson was brought
before Justice Smith yesterday on the charge of
VIM. Tyler, for i'll treating his (Tyler's) son, who
was Johnson's apprentice. The charge was, that
the boy received more thrashing than was good for
bis constitution, and less food than would sustain
nature.
johnson retorted by warranting johnson for
harboring the boy when he had run away from
his master. The examination resulted in showing
that Johnsons cook did not do her duty by the
boys; but that they had never complained to their
MASTER
Also, that when the boy ran away, he remained
at home without his fathers knowledge These
facts produced a reconciliation between Tyler and
Johnson, when the cases were dismissed, after the
Justice had talked to the boy like Dutch uncle"
