yourself. Yeu exhausted your ener-
gies in your efforts, and when you had
labored through your lengthy TRADE,
congratulated yourself upon having
perpetrated something smart, bnt I be-
lieve shall be sustained by your read
ers when I say that you were the only
one WHO INDUCED in that pleasing hal
lucination. I scorn to follow you
through the yomitings OF your heart
and endeavor to reply to all your low
bred witticisms l?)-they are tlnal.-
ss0erable! Again. say I am not adyo-
eating the canse of J. A. Killeen; | am
not his champion; he can fight his'own
battles. IF l do not approve his course,
he does not claim to belong to my
party. If you have private quarrel,
challenge him to meet you behind the
stable, out of sight of the public, and
there fight it out by throwing mud ad
Eibitttna.
You not only call the object of your
villificatiOn by name. which is not us
ually considered courteous among we'll
bred and gentlemanly editors; but YOU
take special delight to deform it in
print; 10 call i'll names; to make low
lived comparisons; to draw upon your
imagination for ludicrous scenes; to
write up his history. &c., which are
unbecoming dignified editor. Now
| do not propose to bring you into note
by writing your name, nor by calling
you i'll names, nor can | write up your
history, for you are too obscure to
have history. Your antecedents are
yelled in too much mystery, yet, if
"any good can ceme out OF Nazareth"
a discerning public will appreciate it.
Let Killeen go to Washington to at
tend the inauguration or for any other
purpose if he pleases. What does the
Republican party care about it? Thous-
ands of others of both parties have
dome the same thing. Let him 90 to
Canada, and what then? Must cit
izen be villified because he sees fit to
Indulge in a little vacation? Your sub
scribers expect something of more in
lterest than rehearsing such scenes as
you present; they want the worth of
their subscription, and not such stuff.
| During your brief sojourn in this
community you haye not been able to
accomplish all the history of the past,
nor to become acquainted with all the
people, and you frequently render
yourself ludicrous by attempting to
rehearse the past. Better to omit that
part until you become better posted.
| The Republicans have been in the
ascendancy in this state, but they can
not long remain so if they are to de.
Ipend only upon such sheets as yours
to advocate their cause. We propose
to continue to hold the ascendancy,
but at the same time we propose to be
naercJtt1 to sinners. We can afford to
be generous to our enemies. If you
propose to represent that party, and
expect that party to sustain you.
it can only be done by a
change of tactics. If you
have not already annilnlated both
TELEGRAPH and UNION you have at
least driven them away, the same as a
puppy dog barks after railroad train
and chases it off out of sight, and re-
turns wagging his tail in triumph, and
your ambition and your malice ought
to be satisfied. You can now afford to
devote your talents and columns to
legitimate purposes. Make your col.
umns worthy of patronage, and your
worth will soon be discovered. The
Republican party has right to expect
better things of you, and would take
pride in seeing a worthy journal issued
| from your Office.
| When you again kick out of the
traces and disgrace yourself, you must
not be surprised to hear from your old
friend, REPUBLICAN.
