I f you will excuse me I will stop writing for your vuluable department, because this person who took mntters to heart so much might destroy himself for I see he is very desperate, or he would not place himself in the untruthful position he has, by saying you were on a “jag” when the steamer arrived Christmas, for everyone in t o - -1 knows that was not so. This being the case it puts our city boaid iu a peculiar position, and as this writer lias known Mr. E.
