The following paragraph, clipped
from the Alexandria, Va, Gazette,
was. sent to us with the request "to
answer" 1t affords us much pleasure
to do that:
"But aside from all this there are
other reasons why parents of children
that are loved should not come here.
Never had l imagined that such
state of ignorance and vice existed in
country SO lauded by articles in the
papers-for example--in the family
which l board, little girl Of delicate
constitution is permitted to chew to>
bacco, dip snuff and drink whisky
whenever she asks for it; boy four
teen years of age is allowed the same
privileges, end beyond controversy it
is rare thing to find lady, young
or old, ignorant or educated, rich or
poor, who does not indulge in that
abomlnable habit of dipping snuff; at
home. visiting, IN churcn you will see
their lips all bedaubed and stained
with the juice, presenting to any one
of the slightest degree of refinemen ;,

and altogether without their mic,

CoNcoRD, N. H., March ne 2.--Returns

The Republicans clam that they have
elected five Senators, and the Democrats
three, with four vacancies.
The Chairman of the Republican State
Committee expresses his opinion that the

The Democrats claim that the returns
from two hundred and twenty-five
towns show the House to stand one huns
dred and fiftysfve Republicans, one hun
dred and forty-one Independents.
Two towns heard from gave, last
year, the Democrats twenty-five, and
Republicans seventeen.

We publish on our outside the full text
of the Public Weigher bill, as amended
and passed the other day.
The News calls it graceful retreat.
We suppose he alludes to the amend
ments. Well, it is not worth while to
quarrel with the News or any other pers
son. The issue between the farmers and
the opponents of the bill has been decided,
and tor once the broad heels have tri,
nmphed. This is glory enough for us,
who first advocated the measure. We
could make long reply to Merchant"
In yesterdays Advance, but the thing is
settled, and Merchant has simply
wasted his powder in fight in which he
had all to lose and nothing to gain. He
says he did not commence the PERSONAL.
ties. Wen refer him to his first article.
Tor up to that good moment we had no
idea that such man as "Merchantn was
IN existence, and his assertion that he did
not originate the personalities, is simply
a pleasant little fiction, but for which
same personalities his communication
would perhaps have found an early as
well as merited obscurity. We dismiss
the subject finally, and with the hope that
"Merchant," when he feels himself ap-
grieved at us, will make known his
troubles to us in proper person, and then
if we do not satisfy him, he is at liberty
to attack us through the papers, or in any
other way.

We give below, In terse, vigorous
words, from an unknown contributor,
a fewsubjects of his bitterest hate.
A good hater is, next to q good lover,
the person most to be respected for
his consistency. The originality of
the subjects, and the mode of treat
ment We leave untouched:
For the Examiner

To have the suffering shun me-

"He was heard to suppose that the
lack of similar precocity was what
has got the military gentleman along
side of us, kicked off of several very
good journals. s."--Adoance.
We will present the young man
who penned the above with a genuine
hundred dollar bill, if he will produce
evidence from single publisher in
the United States, who ever dis
charged us from his employ, for in
competency, or any other cause.
People hear a good many things now
a-days that are not reliable. We are
forced TO take back our "precocious"
estimate, and are forced to conclude
that even ripper years will not pros
duce first class newspaper ability, or
tact either.

A letter from Mr.. VIM. Sadler, a near
relation to Hon. Ira B. Sadler, of the
Legislature, dated at leighton, Alabama,
February 25th, says
-"We are in worse fix here financially
than politically. Everybody tried last
year to raise as much cotton as possible,
and the consequence is general bank
ruptcy among the farmers, merchants
and every other class. never have seen
money SO scarce. Some OF our oldest and
best merchants have failed this winter,
and others will be compelled to close out
this spring and summer. God only
knows what will become of the poor
farmers; they cannot run themselves,
and the merchants are not able to. run
them, and many among them mast suffer
the present year."
Alas! for poor Alabama; once, and for
many years, the proud and happy-''here
we rest"-now, the scene of fruitless
struggle and turmoil, victim of Yankee
fanaticism and Radical mIsrule.
