Dg~ AS matter of interest, perhaps
to our Mt Vernon subscribers, we insert
the following
Card.

to our Mt. Vernon subscribers, we insert
the following
EDS. JoURNAL:-In reply to my card
of the 18th ult., published in the Journal,
in reference to the great and momentous
question (Which at present greatly over
shadows the wary whv the editor of the
Mt. Vernon Democrat didn't receive his
Ladies Book at the proper time and
in good condition, the aforesaid Demo
crat has the following:
THAT the magazine referred to above
was delivered to me BY the Postmaster,
with every leaf cut, and presenting every
evidence of being roughly handled-taat
we took the book home for the use of
our family, and afterwards delivered it
to the editor of the Democrat in the same
condition it was delivered to me. The
Postmaster certainly cannot deny that l
informed him when l received the
book that the leaves were all cut and
soiled. say again that the leaves of the
book were all cut and soiled before | re-
ceived it from the Post Office y PUB
Usher DEMocRAT.
Now, the facts in the case are, first, the
publisher of the Democrat didn't get the
No. of the Book in question from the
Post Office at all, it being delivered to
Mr.. Wolfe (according to his own state
menD one of the employees of the estab-
lishment Second, not having himself
received the Book" he could not have
informed me when he received it that
the leaves were all cut and soiled The
truth Is, he had no conversation with me
on the subject until after the publication
of the first article in the Democrat How
much his statement is worth that 1.-THE
leaves of the Book were all cut and
soied before l received it from the Post
Office, may be judged of from state
ment of the figure he has cut in the mat-
ter in controversy.
In conversation with the editor of the
Democrat on the 22d of July 1.-TWO months
after the date of his first article), l in
formed him that the publisher took the
magazine from his office for the use of
his family. He, the editor, was incredu-
lous; replied that it was news to him. in
sisted that | must be mistaken, and asked
me to go with him to the office and see
the publisher. did so, and at that in
terview the latter, after considerable
hesitation, reluctantly admitted the
fact | had alleged. Now, the inference
from this is lain; he took the Book ="
home, as he admits, before the editor
saw it; and the unusual amount of hand
ling it got, will account for its alleged
dilapidated condition, when it came into
the editor possession. Had the pub
Usher have had manliness and candor
enough to have confessed his action in
the premises, this tempest in a teapot y
would not have arisen, and | have been
spared the false accusation of having
been direlect in nv official duty.
