the 9th inst. md gives it the lie,
when there is no such statement.
If any one will read Mr.. Corry's
letter through, they will see that it
was his own accusing conscience
that said, "thou ort the man.
If Mr.. Cory could have spoken
to me before he went to Iron City,
] would have told him that the pro-
perty was not for sale at present,
and il | thought his only object was
to earn few dollars, | should not
have objected. But / believe Mr.
Cory and his friends had heard
that | was negotiating with capital
lists to come here and developf our
vast resources, and he would do as
has been done before, throw every
obstacle in my way 10 prevent me.
The first thing | knew of lis pre-
sumptuous visit to Iron City was
what be got published in the News
Of the Goth of Now namely: that
capital. plenty oft, was awaiting
his (Mr Corry's friend's) report on
the condition of things in and
around Iron City.
What should we infer from this;
Why that Mr. Cory had given
the gentleman all needful informa-
ton how he could obtain all that
was in and around Iron City, with
out consulting the owners.
| Or has this great champion of
liberty (tor himeelfi settled these
valid claims to winch my atten
tiont is d-awa pnd of which know
nothing. and going to e II the pro-
perty in aud around lroh CITY, oi,
their behalf, of course, his friends
r port will take, as un 1oubledly the
price will be, very low, as accord
ing to the superior Judgment Of
this wise aud economical business
the owners ask fabulous prices
BY the by when Mr.. Corry';nyil, $
me to help him to sell his cattle,
horses or sheep, | shall expect
him 20 let me say at what price
they shall be sold. he might ask
more than tuy ers would be willing
to give, Int | can nfinl him in
advance that | have PLENTY TO d" in
ulEdiug my OWN business, and III
letting o,.ler peoples alone and
would advice him to tase the SAINT
course and be happy.
