you for copy of your paper Of that date,
together with the name of the author
During the two years was at North
East, met you on several occasions, and
always found you to be gentleman.
have therefore no doubt but that you will
acquiesce in the above request.
Should the author be gentleman he
must retract what he has written or else
shall be obliged to proceed Sin the manner
made and provided for such cases.
l have returned from my school in KY,
for the purpose of settling this and some
other scandal that seems to have been cir
culated about me since my departure.
Hoping to hear from you at your earliest
convenience remain truly yours,

Where I shall be during the coming
week, and oblige me, n. c. d.
II the author of the above letter will go
to North East he will find more vouchers
for the article he alludes to than will per-
haps be comfortable to meet. When he
took French Leave" of that town. if he
had taken the public street in place of cut
ting across the fields and heading for Elk
ton on foot, he would doubtless have found
authority for the article spoken of to his
cost. If he has "returned from his school
in Kentucky, (Which is a lie all over for
the purpose of settling this and some other
scandal" it is passing strange that he does
not go to North East, the seat of the scan
dial in place Of to Wilmington.
We advise Mr.. Dougherty to get further
away than Wilmington as soon as possible
after this letter appears in print; and the
Wilmington folks to keep their daughters
shut up when he is about.

MAYORS OFFICE, n Y, March %, 1869.
To the Press Of the LATED States:
I beg to caution strangers against New
York circulars, tickets, shares, chances and
prospectus in cooperative unions, or gift
enterprises or dollar stores, or in any other
possible scheme whereby property or value
is promised greater than the price asked to
be paid.-Every such an advertised
scheme is necessarily swindle and false
pretence; there does not and cannot tangi-
bly, exist any such schemes in this City,
County newspapers which advertise them
simply aid in the swindle.-If all news
papers in the Union would now make a
point of publishing and reiterating this
information, they will charitably, and, l
think, effectually, counteract the swindling
intentions of those who use the mails for
the false pretences. and will also save to
the unwary hundreds of thousands of dol
lars.-A. OAkEY HALL, Mayor of the
CITY Of New York

SUsPENpFD.-The CAMBRIDGE INTEL
LIaENcER, that fearless and sterling Re-
publican newspaper, has suspended pub
LEGATION, its late editor, 81. w. Straughn,
having received an appointment in the
Baltimore Custom House. The office
is for sale, and Cambridge presents a
good field for Republican paper, if
some man of ability and enterprise will
take hold of it. We don't mean to say
that friend Henry did not possess both
of these qualities, but be loved the ease
of Office better we fear, than newspaper
labor. There is better day almost at
the dawn for the southern counties OF
Maryland, and if the Republican press
of those slave-blighted lands will stand
to their guns steadily for little longer,
they will eventually become masters of
the field.

its clothing; but it is enthroned in the

~ The President has not yet fixed the
time for holding of the elections in the I'M
reconstructed States, of Virginia, Missis-
sippi and Texas, and will not do so until
he can ascertain the most convenient period
for the people. The conservatives. so-called
desire speedy election while the laborers
are all at work and many of them could
vote only at the risk of losing their situa-
tons; while the Republicans desire the
elections to be postponed until the har-
vests are secured and period of leisure

e The President on Saturday appointed
to Brazil and General Daniel f. Sickles
Minister to Spain. President Grant says
that he intends to detail army officers now

officers and the Quaker agents the Indians
would have justice done them

The dircovery that some Of the principles
which engendered and supported the rebel
lion are dead, is matter of congratulation,
as well as the fact that the discovery came
from the sources it did. We are sorry,
however, that the editor has been driven to
false philosophy for an apology. No just
cause can ever know defeat. The Southern
cause was bad, hence it was overwhelmed
and crushed.-Prcss.

discovered the fact that the rebel cause, as
well as the rebellion, is dead; but like Dor

The Fifteenth Amendment.

New York has fully ratified the Fifteenth
Constitutional Amendment. So we are
well on the way toward the incorporation
of that Amendment into thu Federal Con-
stitution. The States which have ratified
it, are as follows:
Maine, Minnesota,
Massachusetts,, Iowa,
New York, North Carolina,
PENNSYLVANIA, South Carolina,
West Virginia, *Missouri,
Alabama, Nebraska,
Tennessee, Nevada,
Florida, Arkansas,
Illinois, Louisiana,
Wisconsin, Kansas,
Michigan-21.
sThe ratification from this State is said
to be informal; if it be so, the necessary
correction will surely be made next Novem-
Der, when the Legislature again meets.
The following states are morally certain
to ratify before the year closes:
Vermont, New Hampshire,
Connecticut, Georgia..
Rhode Island, Virginia, Mississippi, and
Texas, will give us the residue that we
need, and more too; and we hope for help
also from Ohio, Indiana, California, and
Oregon. Success is almost beyond contin-
gency.

The Public Debt.

The May statement shows reduction in
the aggregate of the debt of Sc, 399, OIL .65,
and that the debt less cash in the Treasury
amounts to $2,51s, 1877, 391. This is a
lower amount than at any time since the
late Secretary, in support of the obstructive
policy of johnson, began that manipulation
by which he largely increased our gold
bearing debt. During the month Of April
no bonds were issued to the Pacific Rail-
roads, those roads being already far in
arrears in their payments on the interest
accounts Of the bonds already issued
Since the Developments in regard to the
incomplete condition of these roads have
been made, the Democratic press has been
endeavoring to foist upon the Republicans
the responsibility of winking at the evasion
Of the contract between the companies
building these roads and the United States.
The fact is that the whole matter was
istration, and that the responsibility must
rest there. General Blair, the Democratic
candidate for the Vice Presidency, was for
nearly three years the Government Com
missioner for the inspection Of the roads,
and concurred in the reports accepting the
different sections and authorizing the issue
of bonds therefor. Neither Mr.. Browning,
the Secretary of the Interior, nor Mr..
McCulloch, the Secretary Of the Treasury,
ever took single step to protect the inter
est of the Government. 1t remained for
President Grant and Secretary Boutwell, to
step in and prevent the Government from
being further defrauded, and their tirmness
and honesty will be found sufficient to force
the companies to pay up the back interest
and complete the road.
