When asked the cost of the stamp and 500 cards printed, it was clearly demonstrated that lie was selling goods under mis representations.

MMS ANNIE AN PRCS AT KINGWOOtt. Friday, June 22. Miss Andrus. late of New York State, will give a Reading At the M. E. Church at Ringwood one week from Friday evening. Miss An- drus is a fine Elocutionist, and none who enjoy a fine eir.ertaiunient should fail of hearing her. We take the fol lowing from the Rochester Express: "The entertainment last evening, given by the "Wilbor OluU" »rove<i a goo'l mi«cei»». Miss AnUrua rc»<t in ft «tj*le very «£ the ear. We believe that her "MoLalnij HliiM" and Boy" eon Id not be Improve'! upon. Uer humorous pieces kept the audi, ence in good cv oer." A correspondent from Bfishnell's Basin in the Rochester Democrat and Chroncle, says: "Of all the entertainments there are rone so picaaing nnd enjovable as a Reading, espect. allv iftttte uf the simple natural style that only A true artist can give. Such was the entertainment Miss A minis gave Monilav evening. Her three best, "MeLain's Chilil, "Child Lost," and the "Blind Boy," were in deed fine. Her humorous pieces were w.ell PLAINDBALER :--The Senttnd sperffcs. and lo, poor little Charlie, the Sentinel despised ' little cuss," how he does catch It! uThere is hope of a tree if It be cut down, that it will sprout again." But we had giv?n up all hope that the 300-pound editor ever would show any signs of life. In this, how ever, we were mistake^, MTh» little cuss** seems to have bearded the Doug lass in his hall, the lion in his den, and the result Is there is mere life in the latt issue of the Sentinet than In all the Issues preceding for many years. There is Indeed hope that the "leading news paper of the county** U convalesant. Yet It does not seem to have entirely come out of Its comatose state, as it seems to see double, and miscalls ob jects with which It ought to be famil iar. Now the "little cuss" seems per fectly competent to bold his own with the Sentinel in this war of words, as long as truth Is made the basis of asser tions, nevertheless sometimes false statements are taken tor truth unless the psrty against whom they are made can show the preponderance of testi mony that such false statements have no foundation in truth. As beth the Sentinel and Independent make the utterance that they .dislike newspaper controversy, so say we, but sometimes justice requires that we give in our testimony, though not the most pleas ant task. The Sentinel says of Charley that at Charley's examination his stand ing was less than teu. Now we claim to have seen a report of that examina tion, and InsteAd of being less than teu it stands correct at 86. But why should such ponderous weight as Is claimed tor the Sentinel be so anxious to demolish such % diminutive "little cuss" as the Sentinel labors lo make Charley out to be. Not withstanding the boasted superiority uf the Sentinel it seems to realize the fact that "nothing is. so small hut It has some means of defense" aud burring the diflere'iiTe In avoirdu pois the "little cuss" seems to"hold the fort'* iu the controversy.

McHenry, May 8tb, Wt EDITOR |̂YIRII|IA||IIT -̂I once more ask p^rmle«MlSlB*^Widtovself againn a frlanderoes ahd lying article which appeared in the Woodstock Sentinel of last week. This article was aho written by that prince of humbugs and frauds who signs his name on the hotel regis ters Genera! (?) John M. Southworth. than whom A more unscrupulous ntls- creaut does not exist, if I except one who signs his the same wherever he is not known, with the exception that he prefaces his with Col. ( f) G. S. It will be noticed that there was no attempt made to refute my statement which appeared In the PLAINDEALER of the 31st ult., but a wliogs column of un mitigated falseliootlwiri^ hurled at the editor of the Harflrrt Independent, who had dared to defend me against their former scandalous attack. I think it safe to state 'list I convinced every fair minded reader of the PLAINDKALER that their charges tha^ I had been re moved from the Railway Mail Service were false and malicious. I have In my possession a letter signed by W. B. Thompson. General Superintendent of Railway Mail Service,^that will settle the matter to the entire satisfaction for dissatisfaction) of Mr. Southworth, if he will take the trouble to call on me. The Sentinel says that on my second examination, the last, I did not reach teu per cent, while Kite standard la ninety. I have a report of my second examination in my possession (which Is at the service of Mr. Southworth at any time) signed by J. A. Montgomery* Examining Clerk, which states that my percentage correct was 88. What do the people of McHenry County think of a mau who deliberately makes Mich a slanderous aud unfounded statement? The Sentinel says: Again the Independent knows, or ought to at lenst, that those employees who nre dis charged for some criminal offence, are the only ones "delmrrcd the privilege of entering a mail oar or tne inside or a post ofBce." I proved the falsity Of the above In my former statement by quoting Gen- eial Order No. 20, which plainly says: ' "Any person who has been discharged from the service for any MUM H-Mever must not be employed MS substitute or in any capacity, nor must Tie he allowed to eater or ride In any office whatever." Once more I qnote the man who has no regard for the truth of Ills state- ments: The /ttdqmHMjnlnlnly shows its ignoranco in regard to the R. M. service in saying that Mr. Curtis made hut two errors during his term of office, an examination of the record of the clerks in the Hi nth Division wilt show that ttie most efficient aiHl liest Informed clerks excce<l the number mentioned monthlv by at least ten times. But. what does Hie Iniitpend ente, all an error? Is Itan error Kjmply to seize a pouch of mail containing from four to live thou sum I letters, plainly labelled for Its des tined route, and thmr it^yhe car o«e hun dred ami fifty milMj;#hO|jRW its destination, thereby delaying every*: Nfiir in the pouch t wen t y - foil r hoara M.wwfof ' Such things are not no'led in the 'AMJriee As errors butare railed "bulls," notptMlB repeated. 1 never Vid claim to be the i«Mt efficient or best Informed clerk In the Sixth Division, but I defy tits writer of the above to show that th«*re were ever more than two errors recorded against me while I was In the service troip tlij^wt rk is noti- he-'fs charged befom it is recorded. In re gard to throwing of! a pouch before It reached its destination It wllt^ be noticed that the Sentint.l does not state that I ever committed such a "btdl," hut leaves its readers to Infer that 1 did. Now if any person will show by any record or by any man that 1 ever ran with that I ever made such a blun der I will acknowledge that tlie Sentinel man Is not the greatest liar unhung. The insinuation Is as false ss the bal ance of the statement published by this vile hypocrite who pretends to be a christian, felnce my resignation I have learned nf lih attempt made by that bluod-sucking horde, headed by Gard Southworth, to esuse my removal, but wheu my friends (during my absence) called the attention of the proper authorities to the matter the little game of this perfidious crew WAS im mediately nipped in the bud. On this subject the Sentinel says: The editor of the Ptentinet never has dlreetly or indirectly n*ed his influence to get Mr. Curtis removed from the position, nor has he ever recommended or suggested the name of Mny man for the place. The idea of the "editor" having any influence; a man who secured his recent re-appolutment as postmaster by the basest fraud And deception. This man who secured names to his petition by stating (when asked) tlmt there was no other candidate, the falsity of which he well knew at tiie time. The truth of the a ho ye was verified by the with drawal of many names secured In that manner, those withdrawing making voluntary statements to that effect, which statements are n^w on file at Washington and are now on record In this city and can be p^duced at any moment. And this pwd will also show that 525 other patVpMkot the office withdrew their nnmesfram his petition stating their reasons letters for so doing.
