CORRESPONDENCE.

I[\\edo not holi oarsdves re?ponsible for the opiniona or the ntteranoes of oor corre»pondent».} | . Editob Holomua: \onr readers have read with , soiue surpxise your frequent | laudatious c>{ Mr. D tinon. —As i one of them, I hnve ditfered i from yoo in your tlattering estimate. but as I snpposed you had suj>erior opportunities for judging the minister s immaenlate worth, I have held my penee. I was thoroughly satisfied that the manfni (?) assertion aud vindication of a pnneiple whieh so ehanueel your editorial judgment was a blutf.. I was well convinced that no pique, principle or consistency would ever induce Mr. Oamon to resign and no power less than a force sufficient for drawing and c[uartering would ever sever him from his olllee. The sequel of the late dramatic show at the Government building demonstrates that the brave (?) stand taken by Mr. Damon was a coward!y evasion and shiftiug of responsibility. He has carried out a policy of hrs oien and ean now calmly lay it on bis partner Levy. Zion. Editok Holomua: Can you inform the writer —what is the matter with Mr. Hatch? I saw him one day last week —when he nppenml ns though he had been drawn through a knot-hole, uml had passed many # 8leepless nights. May hip heallh be spare<l for a few weeks longer, to enahle him to play before the puhlie the insignificant ass to the end. In Sorkow. Emtor Holomua; The Advertiser says that the strength of tlie P. G. is liaely to be put to a crucial test, should a renowal of the orders from Washington be received. In this, the Advertiser is right; but the Morning Deceiver ean rest assured that the U. S. Government will make such a demand upon Mie P. G. whieh if not acted upon \vithiu the prescribed time, is very likeh* to pat them to a ' ! crucial test" that they httle dream of. The vorv thought of this rabble of a government. insinoating that they inteud to resist the authoritv of the U, S. seems so ludicrous, that the writer is led to believe that tbe Insane Asylum is the onlv proper plaee for them. Shoold they be mad ennngh to defy the U. S. authorities. let us hope the flood —wood oorapany «therwise called the P G. Armv, will eom- ! pel Dole, Hatcli <fc Co., with their | entire outfit of scribblers- and | suckers. with okl Stevens if here, ! to plaee themselves at the front of battle—wheu at thē first appearance of the American troops. there will be snch a severe attack of dysenteiy at the front, that there will be uo eall for the firing of a single gnn. The only “emeial tesf’ left then, will be for tbe physicinns. Axn SWASp-BuCKLEK.
