Editors Iitslligtaeer.-
| GENTLEHENI do NOT wish.to be intru-
siyeon tie valuable columns of your in-
tsresting paper and l hope you will mot
think me so in what few words may say
below.
The editor of the Star, published in Nor
gantOwn, does not appear to be satisfied
with my note. appended to a portion of one
published in the Star of the 2Ist inst, in,
relation to the Withholding the circulation
Of the Baltimore iStR at this Office, and
says If 1 mean to, say, by sending my reply
all the way TO Wheeling, that ] had been
or would be denied ia the Star, that
/ do him gross injustice.
Had have known that the editor him
self would have been present at the Publi-
cation Of the next paper, perhaps would
have asked him to publish my reply, and
been reflected through that Iumiuary.-
But that's small matter. The burthen of
the argument OF the editor appears TO be,
that the Sun is published in Baltimore and
read there and elsewhere through this
country, and that if it is proper to be read
there, II is proper here. Since the inter-
diction Of this sheet, It is understood that
the editor of the Sun was taken into Gus
| to iy, aud released upon his promising
" uEu4 49,
ders | received from the source hereto
fore alluded TO, still stand, and ex-
pect TO live up to them until revoked
| by that authority, or some one higher.
The editor of the Star goes on TO emu
merate the number Of copies taken here
of the San-giyes their heretofore political
procliyities, except two, aud says, tall
these claim 70 be Union men," They may
claim to be so, but it is a well received
opinion in this community, that seven
\ tenths Of those who take, or have taken 1t
at this place, are or have been unsound on
the Union question. do not wish TO mis-
represent any body, but in Q careful exam
nation think it will be so found. Tho
| editor says he does not find fault with the
Postmaster here or the Marshall. In the
name Of conscience then, go and complain
TO those who have the authority, and let
US have a littleless buncombe 10 this thing.
As for the popularity of the administrni
ton, that is matter, ! presume, not
sought after by it or any of its officers
The object now is to preserve the country,
put down all rebels, and scrutiniLe every
mans motive, whether friend or foe. II a
man is i friend to the country, lie Invites
scrutiny, aud is not always quibhling about
every little thing that occurs. One Union
man who had paid a years subscription TO
the Sun and the postage in advance, signed
Aremonstrance TO the Postmaster General
TO stop it. have heard others say "let it
go, 1t is not sound, anyhow"
So think, gentlemen, there is more fuss
and JedtherS about the Baltimore Sun than
is necessary to have at this time. good
deal, could be said on the subject that has
not been, and the mure yOu stir this thing
the more offensive will it be 10 the olfac-
tories. We have had blowing and casing
enough heretofore about this party and
about that, and enough, thank God, to
blow some of them clean out of water,
and n good many of their champions with
them. Tho great object and design now
is, OF every good and true man, TO pnt on
harness marked "U. $ p and try TO save
our beloved country from the devils incal-
nate who are working every 6endish de-
'is" 800. : F. MApRRY. p. NJ.
