Our neigh6or, the AVaianchs, gives
rather free vent 70 his spleen in com
mentiag on several short articles which
we have lately written, to correct state
ments having a tendency to produce au
erroneous impression, SO far as the APP
PEAL was concerned.
When invidious comparisons aredrawn
by any morning paper, We not only con-
slider it our right, but deem it duty we
owe to our readers, to lay the facts before
them, and let them judge for themselves.
In an Editorial in the Avalanche on the
22d inst, we find the following:
"Upon our commercial, local, money
market and Geographic departments We
erpend as much space, attention and
nancy rs any paper ia The city"
For d correctness Of this statement
we simply refer our readers to the tele-
graphic columns of the APPEAL aud the
AUalanche, not only at the time the
above article was written, but for some
time previous, and since.
AS to whether the news contained in
the specials to the APPEAL from Little
Rock, jackson, Miss, Washington City,
or elsewhere, meets with the approval Of
the AUalancho, is a matter Of perfect in
difference to Us, as it is no doubt to our
readers.
Oar neighbours aversion to specials
arises, probably, from unpleasant and
expensive egperience-for, If we mistake
not, when they indulged in the "new
humbug," as they facetiously term tele
graphic news, in the shape Of special
dispatches, they RECALLED their readers
with q long-winded account Of a hanging
affair at Newport, KY, and a disgusting
detail OF a prize-h fight at st. Louis,
(which character of news We pride our
selves is not as acceptable to the taste Of
the readers Of the APPEAL as the "dull
and prosy" accounts Of the Conventions
the expense Of which, judging from
their length, must have Disguised them,
for we noticed very few specials aftey-
wards in their columns. II appears
strange that our worthy Deighbor would
not, 70 use his own words, publish, if
furnished US him grstultously, the
dull, prosy and uninteresting doings Of
the Radical Conventions at Little Rock
aud Jackson when only a day or two
before, his paper contained Geographic
accounts Of the "doings Of the Radical
at TALLAHASSEE. AT.I.
.AETA, RICHMOND, RALEIGH and NEW
ORLEANS. Il
As to the attempt to make a little can't
al out Of our change in rates, etc. and
he slur in regard TO the character of the
ditorials, we are willing to Civ. them

before, through the Northern Bank,

whom live by means that are anything

HUMREG.

A New York City weekly says that,
" our Fathers left England for an idea
the equality OF all men-proclsimedi it on
these western shores, fought to secure it,
but, in haste for peace and union, forgot
the idea for which they fought" Upon
which the Times says: at is curious to
note how often a statement comes, by
mere repetition, to be accepted as ALSO
lutely and uudeniab!y true " and adds
We do not suppose many people who
know anything OF the actual history of
the case give any weight to loose and
inaccurate statements of this kind; but,
with the mass of readers, il is rank
heresy, IL not treason, to question them,
and they have 8 great deal to do with
shaping the political opinion and action
Of the day. The equality Of all men,"
in the sense in which the phrase is now
used, was probably the last idea the first
Puritan emigrsntsfrOm England thought
of entertaining.
Everybody who knows anything at all
about the early history of the country,
certainly knows that, IS Chief Justice
TANEY proved 10 the DRIED SCOTT case,
the first settlers Of New England, and
their descendants acted uniformly on the
principle, that negroes had no rights
white men were bound to re-
spect - and considered them SIS in all
respects cbstteIs. The Q1akers found
very little Of tie " equality of all men "
in Massachusetts,, when they were hung,
OF, when the PGritans were ia a merciful
mood, had their ears grubbed out, on &C
count Of their religious opinions. How
many years is it since Catholics were not /
allowed to vote in New Hampshire ? !
When was q negro allowed to vote in
New York, unless he possessed property
to q certain value?
The {" Fathers did not leave England
" for an idea-the equality Of all men,"
They did not proclaim it, until the De-
claratiou OF Independence declared that
all men were born equal and then they I
did not mean 10 include the negro.
They did not fight for it. They did not
England or Holland for it. Some
future historian will have more to do
than NIEBUHR ia regard to the early
Of Rome, 70 detect and expose the
mass Of fiction, the suppressions Of the
truth and the suggestions Of fa,sshood,
make up much Of the early " his
Of New England.
