THE CONTRAST.

Last week We took OCCASION, in a
gentlemanly way, to draw a contrast
between the issue of THE FREE PRESS of
Feb. 18th and that ofthe RerieaU of Feb.
10Th, using no epithets nor insinua-
tons against our contemporary, unless
plain facts may be so construed.
But point your finger at mule and
he is bound to kick, even though there
is nothing to combat save space! With
characteristic impudence," the ego
tistical bump-on-a-log who presides
over the columns of the Reviev, comes
back at us in his paper this week, calls
us "liar," highway" "thief,"
and several other of his pet argumenta-
tive names, and proceeds thereby to
prove himself all these by his anxiety
to show up the virtues of his auxiliary
sheet. We did not anticipate a contro-
versy in this matter and shall not enter
into one further than to show up Mr..
Wise's arithmetic, which seems to be
very bad, and also to prove his utter
disregard for truth.
In the first place the ReuieV columns
are 1871 inches in length and not 1911 as
the editor claims, Of this length col,
umns his paper contains eighteen, de-
voted to convention proceedings, ag-
gregating 1888 inches. Upon the first
page of the Review the columns are only
1871 inches in length, the difference be-
tween the length of these columns and
those of the other pages being on &C.
count of the space occupied by the
head Of the paper. Six columns, then,
of 1871 inches each makes total Of 90
inches, added to 1888 makes a grand to.
tai of 1872 inches. In our comparison
