Anonymous Letters.
NEWARK, Nd, Aug. sd, 'S3.

NEWARK, Nd, Aug. sd, 'S3.
Mr.. EDITOR Please allow me
small space in your paper to express
my views in reference to all persons
who are guilty Of writing letters of the
above kind, with the intention of doing
serious injury to the characters Of their
fellows. We have recently received
such letter, coming from your town.
The author, whoever it may be, after
having said all manner of evil of GER
tain families "a part of whom are men,
bers of the church we serve, with full
intention to do those families aud mem
ters Of the church ssrioss injury, has
the audacity to claim to be a true friend
TO the pastor OF those members. We
unbesitatingly say to all persons who
may be guilty of writing such anony-
nous letters, that We regard them as
being slauderers, OF the lowest grade, IS
baekbiters, of the foulest kind; and our
opinion of all such coiusides with the
description given of such characters by
DR.. Adam Clarke. 10 speaking OF the
backbiter be says: " He is knave. who
would rob you Of your good name b. is
coward, that would speak Of you 10
your absence what be dared cot do in
your presence and only an ill-condi-
toned dog would Fly at and bite your
back when Jour face was turned. All
these three ideas are Included in the
term, and they all meet in the detractor
and cslumniator. Z" His tongue is the
tongue of a knsve, Q coward, aud q
dog" Such person, Of course, has
no right to the privileges Of the Church
Militant, and none OF bis disposition can
ever see God. Our convictions are.
that the author of this foul anonymous
letter does not live in Snow Hill, but is
a"wolf in Sleeps clothing" lurking
10 some other place. OF all such We
would to the readers of your paper say,
beware! Z. DAVIS.

The RIVER AND HARBoR BILL
PASSED OVER THE PRESIDENTS We
To.-The House Wednesday, by a
vote of 1872 to So, and the Senate
by q vote Of Al to 1e, passed the
river and harbor bill over the Pres
ident's veto. This action of Con-
gress was probably influenced by
the consideration that members,
tired out by their long labors at
the hot and dusty capital, prefer
to let the river and harbor bill
go before the country urmodified
rather than enter at this late date
npon a new and protracted discus
sion of its multitude of Items
Members were probably convinced
also that they would stand well
with their constituents if the bill
retained the form ia which it was
sent to the President. The out
cry Of the press at the extravaganza
of many Of the appropriations
summed up in the measure they
perhaps thought would be short
lived, while the popularity of each
individual Congressman in his
own district would be lasting in
proportion to the size of the slice
he managed to cut from the pub
lie loaf. They seem to have been
little influenced By the Presidents
objections, either to the principle
Of appropriating money for local
purposes or to the inordinate a.
mount appropriated. 1t did not
escape them, perhaps, that in him
self urging large sums to be set
apart for the Mississippi river and
the Potomac fats improvements
the President had endangered his
argument from the constitution
and become in q measure partici-
pant in their act. Still, whether
open to the charge of ineonsis-
tency or not, it must appear that
she President deserved we'll of the
country by his veto. He at least
pronounced in favor of economy.
It must be admitted, on the 9TH
or hand, that it was better, if the
bill must be passed, that it should
be passed as it was, over the Pres
ident's veto, than that the dan
gerous practice should be estab.
lished of Congress snrrendering
its functions to the President to
the extent of granting to him the
discretion asked for of expanding
appropriations wholly as he should
see fit. 1t would be an extension
of the executive discretion hardly
proper to ask for, and certainly
not proper to bestow, if Congress
doer not wish to stultify itself en-.
