TAsIsTRo AND LANMAN.
III me E,Tigor

SIR: A communication appeared in THE
REPUBLICAN few days ago under the cap
ton of "Wcll Have to Try Again." which
does one gentleman at least alluded to therein
gross injustice. | refer to Gen. Louis Fitz-
gerald Tasistro, the peer of your factious
correspondent or any other man in this city
in birth, education, intelligence, or social
position, and with all in modesty and unas-
suming demeanor.
The screed in tho Sunday paper about Mr..
Tasistro written by Mr.. Charles Lanman,
without the consent or knowledge of Mr.. T.,
has been source of modification and great
annoyance to our respected octogenarian citi-
zen. 1t makes no difference with the public
what your correspondent thinks of Gen.
Tasistro. The statesmen and litterateurs OF
the past generation did not, nor do those OF
the present age, regard Mr.. Il. as "draw-the-
long-bow," but gentleman ranking high in
genius, intellect and possessing wonderful
memory. Literary honors have been con-
ferred on him, unsolicited and unsought, by
American universities, two of them honoring
him with the degree of LII. D.. yet ignored
by him when it was, however, proper for him
to use this one with others of more distinc-
ton, but which he regards as mere baubles.
As to Mr.. Lanmans blunders in this matter
| have nothing to say further than, IL his
future "haphazards, &C." so-called, are to be
no more reliable than his dictionary" of
congress, either the dictionary" or the
dates on the cenotaphs in the Congressional
cemetery lie like a tombstone"
Upon the least provocation, Mr.. Lanman
has weakness for rushing into print about
forthcoming work or works of his own.
Suppose he writes less Of his own and more
about others (2) the public might then relish
it moro; at least anything signed "Charles
Lanman," &c.
Absence from the city has delayed this com
mInication unavoidably from tho embellish-
ment of printers ink.

THE DOG NUISANCE.

SIR: Your able opinion on the dog ques-
tion in last Saturdays REPUBLICAN meets
the views Of every good citizen, who would
do as they would be done by, and who do not
believe in maintaining nuisance that en-
bitters, If not tortures, the nervous and the
sick, as well as those in good health. who need
the rest stipulated by kind Providence. 1t

mosquitoes which can be avoided by proper
remedies, but how are We to avoid the effects
of the bowling of ours of high aud low degree.
making night hideous, the weared body toss
ing from side to side, in vain wooing natures
sweet restoror," all this to crafty the selfish
ness of n few hide bound individuals few of
whom ever pay dog tax, and contine their
dogs in the back yard day and night until
the restless brutes "bay at the mOon," and
start the ours within range of two or three
blocks to emulate each other in their mad
dening strains business
How do the sick fare on such occasions
How does the mother feel bending over tho
her sick infant the little sufferer starting
in terror as each internal howl pierces its
brain, resulting often in death entering
many happy homes. 1t is needless to enum-
crate the discomforts of allowing the owners
of dogs to annoy their neighbors in this way.
1t appears to the writer that the Hon. Caleb
Cushing once settled this matter in a suit at
law against his og-loving neghbor but all
can't afford that expensive luxury. One citi-
zen holds, or should hold, equal rights with
another. Let every citizen provide himself
with dog, the highest premium paid for the
cur with the longest howl. The death watch
howp would tlfen take rank with tho "Gor-
don setter" mot howler by tho way, but
worth a million of them); then when the
poor, weary citizen mot able to buy dog, and
too honest to steal one) falls into stupor at
daybreal, salute HIM with the gong changing

lives in civilized community, curses the
fate of his surroundings, and prays for the

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 4.--Sir: I must
have trod upon one of Mr. James NJ. Stewards
pet corns when commented on his decoration
day verses Ho tells me TO ponder the
thoughts between tho lines to find his true
meaning. The usual rule is to take what is
said as explaining what is meant by writer,
and II would bo better for Mr. Stewart 60
print that thought between the lines" if IL
is so different from what is said in the lines.
But Mr.. Stewart admits thSt was right
when he says that he was fearful the lines
might be misconstrued," ;" and took advice upon
the subject. A distinguished linguist would
probably have been his best adviser.
If after having written tho lines and
"pondered the thought between them" he
was doubtful, Mr.. Stewart "should not let
his angry passions rise" because One who did
not writo them and found no thought be-
tween the lines TO ponder should give tho
words tho plain meaning thus expressed.
IL is not necessary 10 ponder the thought
between the lines" Of what DIR. Granger or
Col. Gorham said TO arrive at the meaning.
These were noble words which could not be
"misconstruod."
regret that "Mr" Stewart failed to men,
tion the number of the regiment in which he
served, as | could then have spoken of him
by his army title.
As to what said being "silly" and "blind
fury" Mr.. Stewart proves it was neither:
first, by answering it; second, by admitting
that he had doubts about his own verses and,
thirdly by requiring me not merely to
read" but to ponder the thoughts between
the lines to arrive at his meaning.
Pardon me for taking 80 much of your
space, and grant me little that is personal
If Mr. Stewart wants my army record, give
him my name and address, and will furnish
from the best records we confcderates have
left some commissions and general orders
wherein my name is mentioned. As to all
not being brethren yet, some of the best
friends l have in tho world were union SOL
diers and have done what little l could to
elect their union generals as republican can

and Garfield. EX-CoNFEDERATE
