CARTA INTiMA.
Sr. D. Jose Perez Morris.

Mi sie:npre queriio amigo hab:a
tornado el prop6sito, casi irrevo-
cable, de nunca mas ocuparme Ell
escribir para peri6licos. Y til no
ignoras que este mi proposito tenia
alguna razon de ser. AIN recucr-
do Y como no recorIalo + aquel
art(culo cuya insercion me cost6 Ell
otra epoca un mordisco de quinsea-
tts pesetas, morlisco que 4 la yerdad
no me hizo muy feliz porque dio Ell
terra con mi va agotado bolsillo.
Varios amigos, y til entire clos, i
qu;enes aprecio altamente, me ha-
bian suplicado volviese 4 publican
aquellas cartas fntinas que habian
saboreado = muchas gracias = en- O.
tro periodico. Yo, que ell ESQ de
ser complaciente, 10 digo con fran
queza, no quiero que nadie me ayen-
taje, les habia hecho. concebir algu-
mas esperanzas de que serlan cum
plidos sus deseos. Pero hace pocos
dias ful llamado por una ilustre per-
soma, cuya s1plicas son para mi man
datos, y me inst6 4 que dijert algo
en- tn querido peri6dico.
Como hace tempo que no escribo
para ell pdblico, puede decirse que
he perdido por complete el estilo
periodlstico. T1, que tan avezado
estas 4 esas lides, quedas anpiamen-
te autorizado, y al efccto te concedo
facultades omnlmodas para que quiz
tes, anadas y corrijas 10 que sea del
agrado de til astwiaua voluntad
Hecho, pues, este pequeno preambu-
10, que juzgo necesarlo, entro de lle-
no en- materla.
Que ell pueblo de Puerto-Rico es
un pueblo eminentemente religioso,
no hay para que ponerlo en- duda /;
pero que de este pueblo, con raras
X (p 10 les, Sc habia apoderado un
punlble indiferentismo, tampoco es
Questionable. Ahora bien; que los
habitantes de csta ciudad han sacu-
dido csc maraslno, y han sido fieles
y obedientes i Ia yoz de sus pastores,

Col. INGERsoLL made the remark
that while Gen. Sherman is at the
head of the army, and John Sher-
man at the head of the treasury, this
country can neither be whipped nor
robbed. So far as the latter is con-
cerned, he has given the country an
example of his irmness in refusing
to make or accept any compromise
with the Chicago whisky conspira-
tore, by which they would be releas-
ed from their responsibilities to the
government in the way of penal for
fixture. They have been parties TO
frauds that have cheated The gov
eminent out of hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars; and the secretary,
though besieged by these plurderers,
with the aid of a full bevy of law
yers, asking him to remit the penalty
10 some cases and To suspend all fur
Their prosecutions in others, is so
hard-hearted as to let the matter be
settled by educ process of law" In
this he is quite right, and the presi-
dent is equally RICH. in declining to
interfere with his discretion. When
law ceases to be terror TO evil-do-
ers i! becomes comparatively WORTH
less TO the communi y. To deal with
these whisky thieves on the theory
of lenieucy and tenderness would be
cruelty to the people, and treaehery
to the public interests, while offer
ing a temptation to others to commit
the same offsnse.
