Moved to Tears.

\\e feel th«t we are good. admire our paper and our editor. Congressman Morse endorses thc HOLOMUA by saying that we puj to shamo the Boston dav!ies through our high moral tone (the Biston di\lies raust bo pretty tough) and the Ailt'e'iiser this moraiug s/iys that tbe tone of our papor is ‘ almost geutlemauly.” Now stop! If we are nol to be anvsted by the valiant Willie O Smith wo elaim thal wo bave the right of any froeborn citi;ren to object aml solemn!y protest against praised anJ as it were having our “leg pulled” by the Adiertiser. The h ts domanded the suppression of our p\per and the deportation of the editor. It would bo unkind and unprofesaional to insinuate that tho “for oed ’ \ iCHtiou of tho editor of Iho HoLOMUA raight upen a field for some needy newspaper man who pi rbaps could be found (after the meeting of stockholders to-uig!it) under the vory special patrouago of the great (?) “American” politiciun who at pre&ent ruus tho Slar Hnt, we will stat->, for the beuofit of the m ieh-Iearn *d Attornoy-Ganeral t’iat we i\rr perfectly ready as a newsj»uper corporation to see our oJitor jailed aud bauishod.

Let all tl ose porsonal reraarks pass by; .ve honestl\ moan to thank the little editor of the A'ircrti*er for coming to the r»*s eue of our editor aud defend us against the >r.«r and agaiust (as the!7th of M »rch is approaching) tho imparalelled cruelty of Willio O Smith. M e will ask the Star what did we say, whioh could be cousi- i der\nl by our astute brotber-edi-tor sufficieut to deport us and j suppress our p*per? Wr said the sime thiug as Mr. S B.

We make no eiplanation and thauk the —we nearly said Lord—eommon sense whīeh yet prevails in the crania of some of the “Ame ricans“ frora Bremen, Honolala anl (the Iost) Jemsalem we haven t been asked to make any, but we will anhes:tatingly state that if Mr. DoIe and his eo-
