Mr.. EnIToR-As you have published but two
communications from Root" and three rom
"Jaeksonan, hope you will show fair play Dy
publishing this letter. | intended to let Jack
sonians letter go In silent contempt for IL Is the
most rhapsodical and nonsenscal letter ever pub
lIshed, Notwithstanding the author claimed to he
professor and modifer of British poems, (by
styling himself the critic OF Lord John Maners)
The JacksOnian, In his communication OF March
7, SAYS, Nor viii we take advantage of such
faults as may be termed inadvertencies, but deal
plainly, honestly and truthfully with all. Dldyou
do it. Jaeksonianl l think not. But lest |
should wrongly censure you In public will call
your attention to your letter OF March 2S, In
which You say, 'We told you we should write
the truth and nothing more" In the same letter
you accuse certain gentleman (the latchet of
whose shoes you are unworthy to unloose) OF GER
tain actions which he was not guilty of, and
which has been openly denied your statement
to the contrary Notwithstanding, authentic
sources Perhaps YOU would have the c0ElTH-
nity to believe that you are writing honestly and
truthfully in that But 1t Is not so. On the
other hand you are made one OF the most detest-
able liars on earth first privately, then In public.
Again, when certain gentleman waited on
yBu aud asked for an explanation In regard to the
alusion you made to him in your letter, which
YOU failed to give, he called you liar more than
once, which you took as humble as a sucking
puppy takes Its milk and you are the man who
signed ''yours for truth and justice" Go and
hide your face, come on the streets no more, for
you have made yourself more notorious than the
"Baron of Munchausen." What school boy ten
years of age would be so inconsistent in three
letters as you have been Jacksoniau, alias pro-
fess0r2
Again, yOu say I'm justice to ourselves, our
friends and the community, here We pledge our
sacred honor to be rs truthful In our second re.
ply as we have been in our first. We never yet
feared the truth &C." That's So jack believe
It, for your conglomeratcd, lying Inconsistencies
show that to the world. You fear 1t not, because
the instinct Is not In you. But let us take your
own words, from your first and last letters
Here they are, Baron (for you are fully entitled
to the name) in regard to whether thereis second
/ tenor in those pieces or not. I'VE cast our eyes
upon them once and came to the conclusion that
| the bass was taken with q ft of nightmare, and
wns groaning in his sleep, while the first tenor
was caviling with him. &C." And again you say
1.-THE second tenor was sung correctly, SO was the
euphony of those parts. In your last nonsense
cal scribbling you say there is no second tenor
in either of these, $50 you see your inconslst-
eney, Baron. Perhaps yOnr nOddle is so void Of
comprehension, by which you can know what
debasing liar you are, made so by your own
words. would like to have glimpse of your
"phisiog." Baron, when reading this article.
will also state that wrote the words, ''ho,
no, he" and not :" ha, ha, ha." It was an unin-
| leuLiOnAl H1lbLuke vi Lnc paTL Ol tue pIluteTs-
You say you pronounced them no, and not ha'
l say you did not, but pronounced them haw,
haw, haw, more like the shril bark of an Eng
lish terrier than like the singing of professor of
music, and 1t is wonder if the ghost of that
eminent Welshman (the author of that beautiful
triO) does not haunt you for butchering his music
so numerically. Here Is another rich specimen
of your ability as u professor, Baron, when re-
ferring to our vocation Unfortunately for you
for doing so, will say make my living in an
honest way, though in an humble sphere. / pay
my way, and Heaven forbid that may ever think
labor disgrace. And it occurs to me that the
Jacksonan tried to make his living the same way
--iu the coal bank--but thought it too hard on
his British AristOcracy," and since has pressed
himself on the public as o professor of music.
But see here, Baron, Idefy any one to say that l
undermined any one in his employment. No,
Baron, never gabbed to the people that could
run a certain furnace twenty per cent cheaper
than a certain manager could. acknowledge
you could run her as YOU said, on slack but 1t
Is that kind Of slack you run your communica-
tOns with. Yes, methinis you would run her.
like you have run you,self-into the ground.
There, now, close the door and let the British
crltciser, poem modiher, musical professor, re-
tail tea dealer and wOuld-be furnace manager
sink into oblivion for the sake of yours for truth
and justice. Your friend muchly,
Qw) ROOT.
