SIR; One Armstrong OF the Workingmens 5

at their last meeting that the Labor Exchange
had secured an appropriation from Congress,
aud had u:Cd 60 pei cent, of it for clerk

Now. the Labor Exchange would pursue its
usual course and remain silent, but charge is
made which is given publicity, aud we do not
wish the public misiniOrmed about this benevo.

norantly or maliciOus!y states what Is untrue.
Congress never appropriated one cent for the
Labor Exchange, or with which Il ever had
anything to DO, and we leave the public to
judy OF the reliability to be placed upon state
mcmts of that kind which have heretofore OF
which may hereafter Ge made. We ask the
