We are informed that certain old Doc
tor, 10 the southeastern part of this county,
reports THE News as ga rebel sympathizer,
if not an out-and out rebel" OF course no
one who reads the paper takes any notice of
such talk. He is TOO bigoted and mean to
take the paper himself, and thinks he can
make others believe such foolish stories.
As the Doctor is member of respectable
church, and makes loud professions of being
eminently pious, we cannot see what object
he has in lying al bout one who has never in
the least injured him.
He also states that mail for the Hartford
Office is held back here. that our paper may
reach that neighborhood before any other.
This he cannot prove 10 single instance.
We would respectfully inform him that he
mad better tell stories which he can sub
stantiate-because it be were called upon to
do SO, and should utterly fail, his standing
before his fellow men might be some What
impaired. For every instance in which the
Doctor can prove that any package of news
papers has been retained in the Emporia
post Office, we will give him S25. There
is a chance to make money, Doctor-or
