writer, who never had the honor of seeingit. We
nAssrva also on the same list of Woe Presidents
f+ou other Ststes the name Of ". ]. Bepiamia Of
Texss. Why be also is not called au II norabls
we do Dot understand. Why he, of all the geutls-
men on that lst--excePt mau from Iowa, and he
being from Northern State is, of course Of no ac
count-should be without title is bsyond our
comprehension. 1t Vas an oversight on the part of
IRE Heurys, not only as regards the market foe dry
eoOSs add old clos, but it may be, as regards tneir
personal safety. They srewhat the boy cali etchy"
down in Texas, and we expt &C nothing less tt an
deputation to come from that State 10 look into
this matter, not indeed that they care anything
know anything of Beojami for he is no more from
Texas than the Hen John A. Williams is from
North Carolina, that is in no other than that
he has been from there for a great while. The
honorable and the un-hOnor able gentleman are
both iesiden,s of this city.
New il is very easy to understand why these
men should have beea hunted up, and their names
paraded as from North Carolina and Texas. 1t
was ell in the way OF trade. Whether the p &c.
byterisn Church, to which Mr. John I. Henry be-
longs, viii thibk it venial oe SO, is quite another
questlOO, ard ore not for our judgment.
Bot there is another point on which we do not
hesitate TO pass unqualified condemnation. The
Hon. John A. Williams of No tn Carolina aud
w. j. Bepjanin, without the Hooo rabe, of Texas,
are both statesmen In rival dry.gOods shop 10
Broad way, situated somewhere between LsOnard
street and Cathsrine lane, where Soutbern trade,
NO doubt, is quite as acceptable at toe 'uuters
of the Me,srs. Henry. Indeed could they give sny
better proof of their wish Southern custom, aud
their desire to advertise it, thaa the fact that they
keep n SOutherner-nay, two SOOtnorners--con-
stantly on hand ! Even the great H., s. g. l."
meeting had only fifteen Southerne's to show 10 its
ffty thousand people. How much more regard
lsss OF expense must sioele house be that keeps
two7 We think they have IeasOn to complain OF
the HenDs. They take these gentlemeu's prisato
advertisement, to and their public one by puttiog
their names on the list of Vice Presidents, wh le
TO the members of the firm no sach honor was a.
jorded. 1t shows grasPlng disposition 10 the
Henrys which we are sorry to see. An advertise

Fifty ,holssnd-man power might, at least, have
been shared with concern that supplied out of its
own stock oil the raw Texas All North Carolina
material the meeting had. 1t was bit OF sharp
practice we should hardly haSe exPected OF Mr.
Joshua j., Tor of Mr. John T., nor of Philip OF
the immediate Henry blood; neither of MIR. Ed
ward, nor OF MIR. Thomas of the Fenner relation
ship; nor Yet of Mr.. Steele the clerk; nor of the
other clerk whose name we know not; and nos
even of that hilarious and saOguine porter who
took the tickets at the platform-dOOr, aud winked
his eye, saying " H., S. 81 T., you know
No, certainly it was not fair thiog to DO, aud
does not meet with applause among honorable
merchants.
