Recently sou sent among us one OF you

Eofdh. -.wfo has come and had his say

coming and going am much tempted te

Byron. which think quite appropriate &c

FAREWELL a. word that must De and hath been

This say is from Byron, man whose
soui was as ferycnt in hate and loathing OF
amean thing as in the appreciation OF the
beautiful and true.-as defiant to LncOuth
wrong as he was submissive and gentle to
the tender and Just. !Ie was a man who
9ou1d never have submitted to being cow
hided or orsewhipped for his utterances.
and who was far above writing faisehood
for pay, much LISA hiring it done At = profit.
You may have heard of such > man. but
bave hardly profted by his example.
Your recen; Louisiana correspondent. Mr..
Charles Nordhoti. is not uni Known TO me

Mr.. Ncrdhoii. so far us his Necessities may
have compelled him to such moral prOstitu-
tion, but at the same time must despse and
sepulse his trucking venality: while for
you. knowing you only by character to be
of d class quite too numerous in this country.
who grow fat and defan: at the expense of
'rtue and truth. not only submitting to but
often counting personal degradation for the
sake OF Il rotten notoriety that may bring
the lucrative patronage OF a momentary
and morbid curiosity well, it is hardly
accessory for me to say what feelings and
appreciation l have tor such a man. And ]
DON'T suppose you care.
But what 40 you hope to gain by inis.
representing and maligning through your
snighty columns any portion Of this great
country--any class or division OF American
citizens!

creature who would seek to gain the whole
