fellow citizens and the world in general, and
seems obliged TO ease his mind of surplus malice
by abusing everyone, and sometimes his best
friends seem to be the especial objects at which
his hitterest shafts are aimed. Those whom he
did not abuse to his hearts content in his foolish
pamphlet, entitled, THE War Of the Posts" he
managed 10 aSSal in a sufficiently coarse man.
ncr in subsequent two column article in the
MarSeiIleS id'rfiScr: and, Us is usual with men
wasted all his ammunition upon the wrong parties,
who were wholly innocent Of ever devoting Il
moments thought to him.
An article appeared in this paper few weeks
ago signed Aunt Sallie' 1t was written by a
lady who don't even know Tom Bowen. He as
sumed that another very respectable lady was
the author OF the article, and threw a couple Of
columns of slang at her under cowardly nom
de plume. The lady referred to has the happy
faculty of mlndng her own business and pluck
enough to append her own name to any article
she might choose to write, should she deem Mr..
Bowen or any one else worthy of her notice.
Though the subject is hardly now worthy of
our notice, this much seemed proper to say,
that since the smoke has cleared away, it must
be evident, even to Mr.. Bowen himself that he
wasted his ammunition by shooting wide of his
mark
