WE call the attention to the card of
w. Crouch, in another column. That
Mr.. Crouch may appreciate the con-
duct of the CHRONICLE, we beg leave
to say to him that we publish no COM
munication without a responsible name
accompanying it. In the present in
stance, the correspondent who reflects
upon him (Crouch) not only gave his
name, but the assurance of ample
proof of everything he asserted, and
having published the card, of which
Mr.. Crouch was signer, We did not
feel authorized to decline the publica-
ton of a response to that card. The
name ofthe correspondents at the SER
wee of any one authorized to demand
it. We cordially dislike personal con-
troversies, but there are circumstances
under which we cannot avoid being
made a medium of communication be-
tween others, and all we can do in such
cases, is to maintaina perfect neutrality.
DR.. GREEN, Deputy Collector,
seized 7. r. Lockridge's trading boat,
last Tuesday, for doing business as
retail liquor dealer, and dispatched for
the steamer Silver Spring, Capt. Searcy
commanding. He went down and took
her in tow at the mouth of Yellow
Creek; but when in about four miles
of this port, the trading boat sunk.
Capt. Searcy and his energetic crew
managed to save the stock of goods.
We suppose the L. S. officials call
upon Capt. Searcy on important bust
ness of this kind on account of his
we'll known loyalty to the government
during the late unpleasantness.
Three other seizures were made by
N. f. Hood last week, the particulars
of which we have not learned.
