ly and ungenerous, but to be adding in
gratitude to falsehood
As to the Unions knowing the "factS
to be true" as stated by J. E. Bailey,
there must be something wonderful about
its knowledge. Did the Union ever
know a fact that was not true The
Union, however, means to say that it
knew j. e. Bailey's communication to be
true. And the Union knew no such
thing. Neither the editor Of the Union
nor either of his 'hopefuls" was present
at any of the interviews and could not
know that the communication was true
But the Union was willing to be urtrutl.
full for the purpose of supporting false
hood-to lie in support of q lie. Surely
the Union needs the prayers of all tie
prsyerful for its truthfulness and purity.
Reference is made in the communics-
ton to what was said in the TELEGRAPH
of the Proceedings having been brought
in too late for publication in that issue
and must have been written after the
publication Of the TELEGRPH. We were
late enough on publication day to get
through with the business of the day. If
the Union has so little to do that it can
write, refer to what is in the TELEGRAPH,
print and publish after the TELEGRAPH
is printed, or even delay its publication to
the next day, that is it's business. We
prefer 90 publish on our usual publica-
ton DAY, and in season to get through
with the business Of the day.
With these remarks we take our leave
ofthe communi cation of j. E. Bailey and
the Unions editorial in relation to it..
And we submit the case to the Judgment
of an enlightened community.

HOp. William Z. Smith, State Treasurer, and his
Letter of Defense.

The Northwestern, published at Osh
kosh, has for some months been making
serious and damaging charges against
Treasurer Smith for charging excessive
and Illegal fees, and other malfe~sance in
Office For some time the Treasurer took
no notice Of these charges, but on his re-
turn from a somewhat protracted absence
from the State, he finds that the attack
has. assumed form which demands his
notice, and hence he writes letter to the
State Journal which was published in that
paper on the goth inst, in refutation of
the charges and in vindication Of himself.
The Treasurer replies at length to the
charges which have been brought to his
notice, and pronounces some of them lies
and others maliciously false On the
main question, that of fees for certificates
and patents, and the amount Of those fees,
nc Treasurer states what he has charged
and claims justification by law, and says
that he is governed, as he has a right to
be, by the opinion of the Attorney Gen
eral whose opinion agrees with that Of
his predecessor, Attorney General Win
field Smith, both of whom sustain the
right of the Treasurer to charge the fees
which he has done And he avows the
intention to continue to charge the same
fees till oYerruled by the decision of the
Supreme Court and suggests that case
might be brought before the Supreme
Court by some one refusing to pay the
fill fee for certificate or patent and
applying to Supreme Court Judge for a
mandamus to compel the issue.
Altogether the letter Of the Treasurer
is an able oneand does much to vindicate
that officer from the charges which have
been made against him. In one respect
however we are not satisfied with it. We
think there is more pending than the
private or even public character and rep
utation of William e. Smith. He owes
it to the party who placed him in the
Office of Treasurer to yindicate his official
conduct from the charges brought against
it. The character Of William E. Smith
is comparatively Of but little importance
to the public. The character of the Treas
urer of the State is comparatively Of
great importance to the public and es-
pecially to the party that made him
Treasurer. And the Treasurer should not
be satisfied in Yindication of the character
of William q. Smith for his private ben
eft, but should vindicate his official char
acter for the benefit of the public, and
more particularly for that part of the
public which made him what he is
State Treasurer. And, if the Treasurer
has been upright in all his official doings
we hope he will not rest satisfied till he
has proved his uprightness, and we trust
he will be able to establish to the general
satisfaction the business of his action, and
the falsity of the charges that have been
made against him.

SECRET OF SUCCESS. There is one way to
advertise II you W iSh to inform the public of
anything you have to sell. but bear in mind
that it does not pay to advertise an ordinary
article, one the public cannot see any advan
tage in using, either as regards quality Or
price, but it does pay to use the ink when you
have an article the superiority of which can
be seen on the first trial, and this is the reas-

1t is said that the proprietors of the cele-
brated Plantation Bitters rent no less than
nine pews from the different denominations
in New York city for all those of their en-
ployees who will occupy them regularly, free
Of charge. This is certainly praiseworthy,
and it is to be hoped that others who employ
a large number of people, will follow the ex-
ample. The above fact, accompanied with
the belief that firm who would look so
closely after the morals and welfare of their
employees, would not undertake to impose
upon the public, has induced us to give the

them to be all that is represented, we cor

JUDGE FRENCH's LETTER.-In Mr.
French's letter in the TELEGRAPH Of last
week there were a large number of typo
graphical errors. The proof was taken
and carefully corrected, but from some
oversight which will sometimes happen
in the best regulated offices, large por-
ton of it was not corrected in the galley
in the type-and the omission was not
discovered till after the papers were all
printed and the type distributed. 1t
seems to US that the most important error,
needing correction fol- the information of
our readers, occurred where Mr.. French,
in speaking of sea sickness, said he and
Mrs. French were divided in that respect
she in luck. The error in type made
him say-she in bed Should Mr. French
hereafter want a corrected copy we have
carefully corrected the letter in one of
papers and laid it away in the files.

Fatal ARRAY.

On Thursday, the l4th inst, an unfor
tunate difficulty occurred on the planta
ton Of Mr.. II. ID. Patterson, about eigh
miles north east of WoodyilIe, between
Martin Gildart, Esq, and colored mar
in his employ, by the name Of olivor VII
Jams which resulted in the death of the
former. 1t appears fromthe testimony be
fore the Coroners Jury that difficulty
had occurred in the morning between the
parties. Mr.. Gildart came to town du
ring the day, and on his return home in
the evening, he went to the cabin of Will
liams, when the quarrel was renewed. Mr.
Gildart, it is said, presented pistol at
Williams, and threatened to shoot him
when the latter picked up a bar Of iron or
billet Of wood and struck Gildart on the
head, fracturing the skull, from the eft
fects Of which he died in few hours
Williams delivered himselfupto the Sher
if, and is now in Jail awaiting, a hearing
before Esquire Bonney which he will have
to day. The unfortunate occurrence is
greatly to be regretted.
