Civilian & telegraph. [volume] (Cumberland, Md.) 1859-1875, 1860-04-19
The BuIletIn Again.

The Bulletin Again.
In our last issue, it became necessary Tor
the vindication of truth, that we should ex-
pose an effort made upon the part of the a
bovc named sheet, to mslead and deceive
tie public.
Tho occasion of this, was tie publication
in the paper referred to, Of the list OF ui|al!ed
for letters. which list the Editor copied from
opr columns. In his notice Of our charge of
falsehood and deceit, he docs not attempt u de-
NAL, but says he copied the list as an item
of general interest, and that he hod right
to do So. His right we have never question
cd, and had he confined himself TO p simple
publication of the item, we should have never
noticed lin but it was his evident design
to deceive the public. which We deemed it
our duty to expose, that led to the article
which we published. We ask the Editor,
what was his object in publishing the foot
note, declaring that the list was published by
law in the paper having tho largest circuli-
ton within the delivery Of the office =? that
note was not found with the item, but was
appended by himEclf. What object had he
in view in placing said note in italics? was
it not to make the impression stronger, that
his circulation was the largest? What was
lis design in the use Of the index hand was
it not to call special attention to the an
nounccmcnt contained in that sentence? But
a friend has called our attention to another
fact. 1t will be perceived that the names
have been trnrsposed. The first. column in
the Civilian g. Telegraph from which be CO.
pics, commences with the name Of Alexander
Brown, while in the Bulletin it is Philip
Brerko. The second column in the Civilian
& Telegraph commences with Horace Mass,
while in the Bulletin !: is Patrick Mccormick,
the whole of which shows most unmistaka
bly, the artful tricks Of man bent on deccp-
ton.
We had not intended to refer again to this
matter, but the re option of tho following
note, inclused in copy OF the Bulletin, which
we received through tn, Post Office, has
made it ncce 'sary:
BULLETIN OFFICE,
April 10, Co.

We made the charges of lalsehoud and de-
ception against Mr.. Zevely openly, and gave
the proof, which he las not dared to gainSay
and MS to his being able to prove that we
assert deliberate falschoods and make char
ges that he dcfies us to snbstantiate, we have
simply to say that our assertions have all
been proven, and our charges substantiated,
the public being witness.
Ii tho Editor of the Bulletin irnagines he
can deter lis from exposing the deception he
marifcstly designs to pcrpctrate upon the
people, he is greatly mistaken We were not
born when that Planet ruled But we give
him al. notice, and he may govern himself
accordingly, that we shall expose to the full
est Of our ability, any deception he may un-
dertakc to practice on this or any other COM
munity, while if he confines himself to hon
orabe journalism we shall treat him accord
ingly.
