The character and feelings of the editor of the
Argus may be known from the fact that on last
Saturday he told gentleman that his abuse of
MIR. Griswold was not owing to any objections he
had to Mr.. Griswold, but because be wanted to
break up the library association Union.
The editor of the ARGUS, neither last Sat
urday, or any other time, told gentleman,
or any other person, any such thing nor
did he ever wish to accomplish any such
thing. He does remember, however, to
have told one of Mr.. Griswold's admirers,
the day after his lecture, who thought he
was severe on the Fat Contributor, that che
presumed any one could see that he was not
so much after Injan Meal as certain persons
connected with the Library Association"
The Union says "the only interest the
management of the Library Association has
is the public good" We say it is not.
We say thatif the Library Association proves
a failure it will be the UnioR's political
friends who cause its failure. We say that
certain radicals in this city attended a eau
Gus of the Library Association last spring,
and nominated regular ticket for officers,
and, as honorable men, were bound to sus-
tain it. We say that they bolted portion
of that ticket because the men were not
members of the radical jacobin party, and
then went around town soliciting their radio
ical friends to join the association and help
defeat enough of the conservatives SO that
they could control the character of the lee
lures and get creatures of their party into
the course. We say that, by this dishonora-
BILE course, they succeeded in defeating Ed
ward Burial, Jr., Dr. James Bracket, and
Maj. Fl. c. Connolly neither of whom made
any effort to be elected, simply because they
supposed they were associated with honor
able men who, having nominated a ticket,
would stand by it. We say that, having, by
such means, secured jacobin majority of
officers and directors, they so disguised many
of the better portion of our community that
they would neither purchase season tickets
or, except occasionally, attend the lectures.
We say that 'the managers" having got pos.
session of a little money for season tickets,
been the cause of the failure of this winters
course of lectures, and cancelled the engage
ments of nearly all of the lecturers, are now
putting in such strolling mountebanks as In
jun Meal in order to hold on to the money
obtained for season tickets, instead of pay
ing it back to those from they obtained il, as
they ought to do. We say that, it is by such

been particularly bitter and prominent in de-
uouncing decent, respectable, good citizens

child is one Of our most upright, honest, in

the entire community sympathize with him,

days, and, so far as the general public know
has not been heard of since. We suppose
the county authorities will probe the matter
