| am told that Il paper called the
Intelligencer, said to be published in

Leader. Jonas says the joke of it is
that no amount of scarcasm, and re-
citaI of unpleasant truths, would draw
him out SO long us he (Jonas) had the
means to reply, and that the man of
many professions and rs many failures
and more disappointments, is very
tool-hardy, even in this display of
tardy courage, icasting stones while
surrounded by your unprotected glass

lent bid for Vandalia patronage, was
the inspiration of the courage, and
malice the annimus.

BASE BALL A

EDITOR LEDGER In answer to
your lengthy review of the LEADERS
article on the 4th ofJuly game of ball.
| desire TO statethat each member ofthe
Vandalia nine has assured me that
Capt. Galloway had no authority from
them to write you a disclaimer of in
dorscment Of said article. With this
explanation, | can stand the criticism,
if YOU can. inasmuch as in all your
column of remarks you do not deny the
truth Of any statement said article
containt. Moreover, Capt. Cal
laway says that he wrote you that he
believed there was ''more truth than
poetry in the article, but did not be-
lieve it expedient," &C..
Allow me to further say that when
you a | called you names, you are
much mistaken. l said that you be-
hayed reasonably well, but that We
had been told you would behave dit
ferently, and | may here say that your
o~ficious but reliable friend, Mr.. Cal
lawav, was our informant. With the
suggestion that the next time you af-
fict your readers with such a lengthy,
and with all pointless article, you head
it .'Rase Bawl." / remain,
Yours Fraternally,
ED. LEADER.
In answer to the above we would
state that, Capt. Red Galloway wrote
to Tom Reed in these words: Tell
Bob, we do not indorse Jake's piece
in the Leader, and that we r much
pleased with his article on the game.
He did not say anything about truth
or poetry / did not deny your ac-
cusations, because | did not think 1t
worth while. Every n that saw the
game, knows we won it fair. Every
one that did not see it, knows you
would squeal any way if you got beat.

Last Friday night, Riley Ewing,
engineer of engine No. So, on the C..
& A. Railroad, died at his residence
in this city from a very severe and
painful abscess, caused by a gun-shot
wound received in the late war. He
had been sick about five weeks, and
although he received the best of medi-
cal treatment he had to obey his Mas
ter $ "Orders."
Riley was a member ofthe Brother
hood of Engineers, also Of Lodge 90,
I. O. o. T. of Mexico. For twenty
six years he has been an engineer,
faithful in his duty and very skilled.
He had worked for the G. & A. r.
r. sixteen years, giving perfect salts
faction. Fonr days previous to his
death he was united with the NJ. T..
Church Of this city. His funeral SER
vices we're held at the Liberty Street
NJ. Z. Church at two o'clock p. IN.
last Sunday. Conductor Greenman
ran a free train from Louisiana which
arrived in this city at loon. on
Sunday. The body was conveyed to
the church by the Mexico l. O.. o. f.
| Lodge, of which he was a member in
good standing. The coffin was beau
tifully decorated with floral offerings
from his friends. The services were
opened by prayer; by the Rev. Mr..
GilIies of Louisiana, followed by Il
very appropriate sermon by his pas
tor, II. B. Scelcy. The services were
closed by a brief, thrilling address in
behalf of the Odd Fellows and Loco
motive Engineers by DIR. Vincil.
Music, especially adapted to the Oc-
c~asion, was furnished by the choir.
The body was inferred in the new
cemetery with the honors of Odd
Fellowship, Rev. II. b. Seeley Chap
lain, officiating. A very imposing
procession followed the remains in
fact,it was the largest attended funeral
that cver took place in Mexico. The
procession was nearly a mile long,
and besides the excursion train was
run up to the graveyard. His son,
johnny, and bcrcaved wife, who loved
him dearly, have the sympathy of
friends and the public.

EDITOR LEDGER Il notice in the
last number of your paper another
article from the gifted pen of ''Souve-
mir"
/ am thankful for the past few days
Of cool weather, and doubt not the
many readers of the LEDGER will
unite with me in this sentiment when
they learn that to those fine days We
are indebted for the temperance OH
the literary horizon of the great lu-
minhry, Horace Greeley's able vindi
Gator. L feared, during the warm
days, that the budding intellect Of
this rising genius would wilt, to say
nothing of his physical caliber, sub
ject to the present slavish custom of
wearing b~roadcloth tights, after a
youth passed in the Gov yard and
other free and easy places, arrayed in
the airy garment which he described
in such glowing terms to us a few
weeks since; but cool weather has re-
vived him, and he comes forth fresh
and green sounding the praises of q
dead hero; shaking the whole union
arousing New England to the con-
seriousness of having committed an
i%rreparable error, inasmuch as he
shows them they have neglected and
failed to appreciate this hencefortIl
immortal hero.
From reading his -syllogistic bio
graphical obituary of the unwept and
unsung Fl. c., we Of the West can
but feel our sins are many, what must
be the poignant remorse of New
England? Oh, "Souvenir," you
know not the mighty work you have
already done. Why, sir, Cor madam)
to-day, in so short a time, since you
glowing, moving eulogy on II. G. was
flung to the breezes, signs and groans
of remorse, and prayers and suppli-
cations are bursting from thousands
Of New England hearts while in ev-
cry New England dooryard a monu-
ment has been erected in memory of
the deeply-wronged saint, who, like
Northumberland, could not rest in his
ave until indicated.
We congratulate Souvenir on the
friend he has gained in the spirit-land.
