do not deem II necessary for me Ia
notice al the low sophism concoetcd by
this "wonderlul" T.. T. S,ickney o. Co.,
yet there is one point more Of which
wish Ia speak, and that ia the withdraw
Ing or the motion To ndopt the majority
report. This | done from the fact that
Mr. Kyl, lcft the house, having got dis
gusted with the four or five pcttlioggcrs,

which motions were carried by about six
or cight votes, 10 one voting against
their, while lurgc audience looked on
with disgust, feeling willing to let them
out IN the easiest manner possible, aud
they should have had more sense than to
undertake 10 rub il in through the public
prints. will now explain the reason
why the posters were put up, and lei the
people judge whether "this same Ira In
like the Persian Wolf" or whether he
was not acting upon those principles
which can only sustain the cause Of be-
novoICnt enterprise. Now ii may not
be known by all the readers Of the TRI.
BuHE that the officers Of that Fair, never
kent IN account OF the donations aud
contributions of the people, and wha,
had become of them, therefore II appear
ed absolutely necessary that some one
should attempt to lay before the people,
Gus near M possibc,) the true state OF
affair. aud the sequel shows that they
were found IN n condition that would
have suok the Republic Aid Society in
an untimely grave had it not hav, been
for the timely application Of "L quid

Let me now psk who this T.. r. Stick.
ncy is, that figures SO largely aud can't
,how one dime invested in that most wor.

OF an indignant people, who know the
facts, aud are capable Of judging Of the
