of that order, to tell the working PEG

press OF the country be true, is not

This is rank injustice TO Mr.. Watson
as well as to the public aud is nothing

does him great Injustice. The public
will not long stand these bogus au-
nouucements, made without authority
or foundation. When Mr. Watson ac-
cepts an invitation, his letter Of &C
ceetanee will be the safest announce
