which ascended from 40 many family altars

Before the writer Of the above makes
q question of geracity with the Gazette, had
he not better redeem that IS raised bill
passed upon us in the purchase Of paper.
The foregoing is q specimen of the mean-
ness. and We will add, the downright ras>
calty of the Gazette 1t is we'll that the
Ntaos Office is charged with passing coun-
terfeit money whilst Mr.. Johns is absent
Were he at home, Add Sanders would not
dare to whisper 80 vile an insinuation. No
one who knows Mr. Wallace and Add San
ders would believe that the former would
pass raised or counterfeit bill though the
latter should swear TO it dozen times
Whittier are we tending, when gentlemen
like Mr.. Johns and Mr.. Wallace, proverbi-
ally courteous in their newspaper contro.
versies, are thus accused Of counterfeiting
and state prison offences by prohigate bank
rupts? Verify the Gazette is a Family Jour
nal" Ii the five dollar note be counterfeit,
We have no doubt that it will be redeemed
quite as soon as Add Sanders past due pa
per. This accusing respectable gentlemen
of felony has been carried on by the Gazette
till forbearance has ceased to be a virtue,
and although we do not as g general thing
approve of one editor prosecuting another
for defamation, we could not blame Mr..
Wallace if, in conformity with the wishes
OF some of our leading citizens, he should
bring Add Sanders to the felon's dock to
answer for this outrageous lible.

Arrival Of tho CITY Of Washisgtss.
Reported Expressly for the State Democrat

ST.. JoHNe. N. F., Aug. 25.-The steamship
City OF Washington. from Liverpool. Aug.
18th, and Cork, Aug. 18th, was boarded bv
the news boat Of the associated press, off
Cape Race, at 2 1-2 o'clock, this Thursday
afternoon, and such news az can be CLEANED
from the papers at hand, will be forwarded
without delay.
The City Of Washington's news had not
reached Sackville. at o'clock. this Friday
evening, and the presumption was that the
report was withheld, as usual. by the Nova
Scotia Telegraph line, but as the Newfound-
land Company are about to disconnect their
cable from the Nova Scotia line. and carry
it over to Prince Edwards Island, az origi-
nally intended, thus passing around and
avoiding Nova Scotia, the public may rea-
sonably hope to be relieved at an early hour
from the outrageous conduct of the Nova
Scotia Telegraph line.
The royal mail steamship America, was
boarded by the news boat Of the associatsl
press. on Wednesday, and her news was
imm ediately for warded to Port Hood, and
there handed over to the Nova Scotia lire
aud would have been forwarded to New
York, in ample season for publication. in
Thursday morning journals. if the Nova
Scotia Telegraphers had performed their
duty, but as such a course would have de.
prived the Telegraph managers of the ope
portunity Of favoring the news spectators
with report of the Americas news, the
important intelligence was allowed to rest
1t Port Hood, until after the America had
arrived at Halifax, and her news had been
dispatched to Sackville, by Express.
The screw steamship City Of Manchester.
which left New York for Liverpool. on Sat
urdsy. was boarded by the agent of the
associated press off Cape Race, at 4 l.2
o'clock, ttis Friday p. m. and Capt Kenne-
dy was bountifully supplied with the Eng.
lish papers received from the City of Waeh.
ington the day previous, as we'll a. with the
latest advices.
SAokvILLE. N. B.. Aug. 26.-The Nova
Scotian's time has closed beyond Sackville,
without delivering the FIVE days later
European news dispatches for the associated
press, which are known to be upon their
wires for bulletin boards
SACKvILLE, N. B., Aug. 27.-The Blue
Noses" Of the Nova Scotia Telegraph Co.,
still withhold our important news by the
City of Washington, and they may yet
attempt some fraud on the public by using
what does not belong to them. The CON-
mercial public should be on their guard.
As soon 40 We receive authentic intelli-
gence, it will be made public.

that the assertion made by the Gazette, that
their circulation exceeds that of the DEMO-
