MEssRs. EDIToRs:-In yesterdays RI
PUBLICAN mention was made of lii
tie unpleasantness that took place i
ths vicinity of Fifth and King streets
on Tuesday evening; at that time thing
appeared somewhat muddled, and tn
best account that then could be CLEAN
ed appears not to be full or authenti
in every particular; hence this recur
renee to the affair again.
The lustful dispoiler instead of beip,
young farmer" as represented, look
old enough to be somebody's grand
father, is rather small in stature, hi
complexion is bronzed equal to that o
a sailor, his nasal organ does not as
sume the usual attitude upon his fac,
but points in an oblique direction t,
such an extent that to "folloH hi.
nose' would lead the possessor arount
in continuous circle or you would Sc,
him assuming side step not laid dow1
IN military tactics. His manner, max,
up and general behavior would do dis
credit to one of Barnum's trained mon
keys. He is like King Solomon in two
particulars: he loves "women and
wine. in almost every other feature he
would pass excellent muster for Oar
wins "missing link"
TO tell his real name here it would
bs an impossibility. Unlike most o.
the respectable portion of humanity he
does not sail under the cognomen of his
father, but at certain times and places he
nas different namesto suit circum stan
Cos. such as: Johnson, Gibbons, Martin,
Luther, ETC., etc. If he had any def
mite or tangible name and Brigham
Young had got hold of his p. 0. address
a few days before he died, it is not un
likely but he would have given him a
position on his staff as a saint amongst
tho polygamists. Ladies should beware
of the rural beauty for he is like unto
the Serpent charming the bird once
within his tenacious lneshes and escape
is uncertain. He is also a married
man, but the differences The farm
that is spoken of as his in yesterdays s
paper, ii it exists at all, it is covered
by some one else, for positively it was
never yet seen by mortal eyes. The old
horse and dilapidated wagon that he
drives is used to gather the products of
other soil than his own. A very small
portion of what you buy OF him is from
producer to consumer.
1t is true he has made semi weekly
trips to this market for about a week
and a half or two past; previous to that
he was engaged in the Spanish trade,
crossing the rugged Delaware, freighted
with the melon product Of Jersey, but
that, like his huckstering dodge is like.
ly to prove, was rather transitory. The
fair wife of another man used to send
him "grub" nicely cooked and done up
just to suit his dainty palate, but one
day this dear lady's husband finding
out this friendly manoeuvers dosed the
butter that was to 60 to him with cro-
ton oil and somehow that did not set
we'll ON his stomach and he almost came
to the conclusion that his own dear
home-wif cooking was the most suita-
BILE for him after all, SO he quit the seas
and abandoned his noble craft. But as
the purpose of this article is only 10
correct some errors in yesterdays pa
per, a detailed account of his licentious
with the wife of another
will not here be attempted; though to
yet at the wagon story it will need q
ew words of explanation.
This lustful nondescript has been
pursuing a course of seeking villainny
With the wife of another until to-day
he stands condemned and ruined
woman. The proof Of aduitry is posi-
i've and the evidence forthcoming when
ver legally demanded. The scoun-
lrel's boldness, impudence, intolerance
nd insolence are not only apparent in
his city and its surroundings, but ad-
AGENT towns and cities have been polu-
ed by his unhallowed presence and his
ursed career with the wife of another.
t has also reached back to many
nonths and has drifted along from bad |
0 worse until his actions have become
most of which time the
ONO that he polluted has been broken
y and destruction in its broadcast sense
rougnt as a consequences But strange
s it may appear, D., knowing his
ife's guilt has endeavored to stand
y her as best he could under the circum-
ances, apparently yet hoping to res
10 her from the food of destruction
lat already held her in its grasp ami
as rapidly sweeping her downward
share the inevitable fate of the
lousands Of her sex that have prece-
I'd her.
His effort to keep house under such
ifficulties no one can appreciate
Mess taught by the sad exper-
nee it has brought to a husband en-
.avoring to stem the tide in that un- !
Leasant drama and rescue the one he
we'd, though deeply stained with ruin
ID disgrace; but his efforts at rescue
.oved but as the faint efforts OF dy-
g man grasping at straw. The lech-
GUS villain with ths brokr1 nose COD

Ould improve every opportunity in
