to say nothing Of honesty. Your COMPANION.
are Of the same stamp, with whom you can
walk side By side and arm in arm; uhils Won
have not the courage to walk the pavemen. Or
be seen in company with free soil and free thin.
king men. You may not lose caste in this E.,,
but you may lose the respect Of honest, candid
people. Now, sir, a. you have been up for sale

Mr.. Teacher, has not this been your counsel
Now, as to your Inconsistency and vacillasins
course since you came to Oregon, We say 20
more at present. We say thus much in de.
fence Of the country from which we came-to
affirm that there are only some educated in free
institutions, on free soil, who will 50 unnatural

school teacher; and further, TO show tia. We
can see through Northern doughface As easily
as through piece Of smoked glass; and to re.
mind such characters that any people, North or
South, as soon as they are done using them,
win kick them overheard with contempt. Such
persons can obtain real, lasting respect in no
society. We say nothing now Of your vaeillas'
ing course as an editor and teacher Of this
place. nor the plan you proposed, in our pres
ence, to carry out, to palm yourself Oh upon the
South, when the Southern people we're driving
away Northern citizens and Northern school
teachers from their midst, and when you were
thrown out Of employ here If We are called
out, We have the material on hand.
A PURITAN.
