EpiroR OF PrRaYsBuRo JOURNAL :--Your
spirited paper comes to me regularly and take
much pleasure in pcrusing its well filled col
umns; but must protest against the wild as
sertlons of Gossip" who figures in your las,
issue. A Canadian myself cannot stand idly
by and hear my country maligned. am cor
scious, however, that Gossip's light and vOpory
assertions will not be credited by sensible peo.
pie in Ohio and were it not that think some
ofyour readers, unacquainted with Canada, may
be led into error by his statements, would let
his letter pass for what it is worth.
The taunts of Gossip and such os he, cannot
do away with The fact that Canada is great
country-possessing a natural wealh--which
must place her among the first Of great nations.
| know the country is yet in her infancy--that
her internal resources are only just beginning to
b. developed. Gossip writes jceringly Of the
Grand Trunk" railway aud the Great Wes-
term Now are these not great roads The
Grand Trunk extends from Portland to Detroit.
Where is the "by road" in the United States
which Gossip says equals these? The St. Law
renee will soon be bridgcd at Montreal and then
there will be a connected chaiu of railway
leading from the upper lakes to the ocean. Is
not this something's
Gossip again finds fault with our system Of
conducting these roads--our officers are, for
sooth, "rggcd out in regimentaIs." Even ad-
mitting this to be true, which it is not, save in
Qualified sens what harm is there in having
the officers distinguished from the passengers
| see none in the least But we smoke, an |
chew, and snuff! How very kind in Gossip to
try to reform us but Nigh he not look nearer
home for subjects to lecture for too free a use Of
the weed or is the use of tobacco banished
from the States? had always supposed that
people on the other side of the line chewcd,
snulrsd. and smoked, even when travelling Oh
railroads. Am right ?
Now, Mr., Eltor, there is bnt ono julicious
course for the Canadians and the people of the
States to pursuc--they should bauish all feelings
of jealousy und envy and be willing to accord,
each to the other, the merit that is due. Canada
is not yet equal TO the States in wealth and pop
ulation; she may never be equal in these re-
spects, but she will be-nay is nova great
and growing nation. She is rapidly developing
her wealth of resource in her railways aud pub
lie improvements--evcn the forms of monarchy
are disappearing and she is becoming daily,
more and more ossimiuted in her system of
government, and in everything, to the United
States. We feel here that the States are our
nearest reatives--even more than cousins sand
though we may smoke, and chew, and snuff we
always as yet have found the people of the
States ready and willing to take pinch or a
"pipe" with us. Hoping that Gossip will be
less wild in his statements in future, and less
ready to misrepresent us on this side of the line,
friend, ANTI. GOSSIP.

How THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
LooNs.-A Washington Correspondent thus
describes the appearance of the United States
Supreme Court:
The Supreme Court is found in session in
little room under the Senate. The Judges
have all been present during the past week,
except tie Chief Justice They sit there
with solemn owl-like appearance, sometimes
looking over the leaves of the record with a
dubious look, and once in great while, two

which disturb the gravity of this ,nerable

ARRET or CoUNrERFETERs IN WILLIAMS
COUNTY Wait aud Asa Hamilton were
arrested on Friday evening last by Mr. Bell,
tho Sheriff OF Williams County, within short
distance Of the Michigan State line. He was
assisted by the Regulators, secret society or
ganized as a selfconstructed police for the ap-
p'ehensidn of criminals and the suppression of
crime in their vicinity. They were brought to
this CITY on Saturday evening by Deputy u: 8.
Marshal Wales, in company with MIR. Bell aud
others OF the above county. Tbs wife of Wait
Is detained as witness in the case--she having
confessed d Bnowledge OF the manufa cture Of
bogus coin at their house, and a constant remon-
strancc against it. The fact that led to the ar
rest was, that some 80 in bid coin was found
upon two boys arrested in Indiana who asserted
that they had purchases the same of these men,
Hamilton and Wait. The Sheriff Of Williams
Cjunty being apprsed of this, went to arrest
the men. but while he was securing them, a
stranger, unsuspected by the Sheriff was busy
loading up the batteries, furnace, metal, 60.

sleigh and drove away. IL was impossible to
o'ertake him and he escaped.
There is known to exist large gang of coun-
telcilers in this part of the State, as well as in
aojacent counties lying in Indiana and Mch-
g5n. 1t is said that one third of those engaged
in this unlawful pursuit are women. We have
been shown several bad bills made by the gang;
and the coin representing gold dollars, and sill
yer quarters and halves were 50 well executed

them, The quarters were pronounced by sever

as good, until several tests proved them bad.

The Regulators are doing a good work.
