L DIRTY SuBJEcr.-The fsllow Who
wrote '..Mackentosh's Msnifestos on ths
county farm swindle, appears again in
the organ of corruption and squaw
lroihels, over the name of one F. NJ.
Cuye, a "squaw man. in defence of
his connection, as landlord or proprietor

this city. With this fellow Guye we

il correction with, public nuisance
with no more personal feeling toward
him than We have towards his squaw,
and Chinese tenants, and only notice
tha article which appears, over his name
because of its newspaper endorsement;
albeit there has been nothing SO low,
licentious, or rascally. eliciting public
discussion in tLis community. which
has not had endorsen ent from the same
quarter, Of Guye himself it. is only
necessary to say, that for ten or fifteen
years he lived in open adultery with q
squaw, had family of children-by her,
and when he had acquired respecta-
ble competence, deserted his squaw wife
and half breed children, married re-
spectacle white woman, set up style on
anincome derived partly from rents on
houses occupied by Indian and Chinese
prostitutes, joined a religious society,
=. and set himself up as u reformer and
censor Of the moral character of others,
publicly declaring on election day that he
could not vote for one of the candidates
on the ticket he was supporting in the
r1ain, "because he is not moral mani
the sole charge against the person OBJ
.jected to being that he drinks beer oc~
-casionally. Within the past two years
many Of our citizens have seen the de-
serted wife of this moral reformer seated
upon the walk opposite his door. weep
ing over her baby of which he is the
acknowledged father; and now this
man, with these facts yet fresh in
the memory of all, and the living proofs
setilllto be seen daily upon our streets,
presumes upon his rent rolls to arraign
the moral character of others and to
challenge an investigation of his own,
and his hackers direct him to say, over
his own signature: 3" do not wish to
screen myself by the odor Of sanctity,
or act the hypocrite, but by q straight
forward course and hvnest truthfulness
be able to outhve all such co1,te"ptible
attacks" Had this fellow pursued a
straight forward course and adhered to
honest truthfulness, we would have
been among the last to refer to his ans
tecedents, as brutal, degraded and heart
less as they were.
TIE following is specimen of his
,vaanted truthfulness, as well as an evi-
dence of the sincerity of his religious
professions and freedom from hypocri-
sy. Of the editor Of this paper he says,
in alluding to his assaults upon the old
mad House" "Was it from principle?
-sr was it-because he had not received
the quiotus which he did receive from
auothersproprietcr, viz: Two bottles of
Fine md d meerchaum pipe, worth
sbout tifteen~dollars-(not great price
foraman's principles, butrReriah knows
his own value) and was SO effectually
hushed that he,with significant shrug
of tie shoulders, said, I don't know
anything about your house, although
his hush was received in house of
prostitution-a house which had built
AID leased-to Sam RAYMOND for saloon
and 1odging-house." It is very rare for
men of the most infamous lives; keepers
of the lowest dens of resort, to become
so lost to all sense of decency and self
respect, as to invent and publish de-
liberate and malicious lie,. but under
the stress of immediate danger or in the
hope of reward for his infamy. This
fellow, Guye, the paramour Of squaw,
the father of haifsbreeds, the practical
polygamist, the landlord of houses Of
prostitution, under the garb of moral
reformer, has reached this lower depth
of infamy, and finds public journal
degraded enough to give currency to his
lies. The statement that we received
meerchaum pipe or any other article
from Sam Raymond. is a. lie without
shadow of foundation. or excuse We
advertised his lawful business without
any knowledge or suspicion that he was
carrying any Illicit traic. Guye says
he kept house of prostitution; he knew
it.5and yet he did not turn him out.
The laws make, the owner of a house
of prostitution equally liable with his
tenant, and the terms of the lease is no
bar to conviction: The man who kI Iows
his building to bs.used for an unlawful
purpose and does not prohibit it, lease
or,no lease, is consenting party to the
crime, SO held by law and by correct
public sentiment. Guye, by his, own
confession, has placed himself in that
pasjtion before this community. and no
amount of falsehood or vituperation will
exempt him from the imputation Of be-
ire keeper of houses of prostitution;
