tribune 1.-The gentleman whose name heads
inns article is out in a card in the Alexandris
Gazette of December 9th, denying certain facts
when appeared III this paper of last week He
started out by saying that he intends to relul,
the charges which we made against him; but
instead OF doing this he lets his feelings over :,
deep Into the matter that he succeeded in doing
little else than abusing the writer of the article.

rlence that it is the guilty party who always
raises his immaculate hands to heaven and
PIRATES loudest about his honest efficiency and
innocency. He says he thinks the writer of the
article closely allied to the hand that attempt
