Nix. EDlToR:-From On article in your
Last weeks issue we are led to think
there has been some misunderstanding
or Misrepresentation Of articles coming
from, or in the interest of the New York
Store. We are pleased that you have
decided to allow no article of personal
controversy to appeari in your paper
We plead innocent Of starting any con.
troversy, and in order that the matter
may be fairly understood by the rea ders
Of your paper who do not take the Con.
ssrratise, or are apt to receive ydistribu.
ted circulars, we feclcalled upon to state
some facts.
For the past two years there have ap.
peared advertisements in various forms.
indirectly cutting ut the New York
Store, DurinGthoEseater portion of the
time no notice was made of them. Last
fall, for the first time, our friend Matilda
in letter to Jane, made such notice Of
them that for while nothing more was
heard from that source. But about
three weeks ago there appeared circu-
lar from the Conservative. portions Of
which. that all may be understood. I
here quote: "HuMbug Exposed, Mad.

that so long AS there appears nothing OF

be heard from US Of that character.

the fact that the circular or advcrtis.

our friends Of the New York Store make
an explanation which will bo found else

the provocation they had to use harsh
language. OF these it is not our wish to
judge or express IN opinion, but VIC arc
pleased that they concede the soundness
Of our rule in regard to admitting bitter
personal controversy and imputation
against character or standing in the shape
Of advertising. We willingly testify ia
the usually uasxcsptionable character Of
all they offer publication. and we believe
them to be sctuatsd only by spirit Of

SAcRILEaE.-Somcth more than a
year ago, allusion was made, in the col
umns Of this paper, to an abuse which
should then have been abatcd, but which,
it seems, has been suffered to continue
until now. We allude to the fact that
the main travelled road to Ottorville pas
scs through disused burial place within
the city limits, and that the daily aud
hourly traffic and trade in that direction
passes over the graves Of the dead. In
civilized communities, the resting places
of the departed are considered as sacred
ground, not to be intruded upon wanton.
ly, and to do SO is deemed species Of
sacrilege. Measured by this standard,
whoever threw this cemctry open, or
those having authority to close it, or re-
move the dead and fail to do it, are mucl,
to blame. We look to have our city
council take early and prompt action in
the matter.
