Wiittcnfor the CulumUa Demount. .Tkusevtow.n, Pa., Juue a, 1801, Co.'. L. L. Talc, Duau Sin: In looking over a copy of the 11' publican, dated :JUth of May, I discoveicd a communication from some individual, seeking public uotoiicty, who signs himself "Tyro," aud purporting to have been written at this place. Now, who 11 Tyio" is, wo do not caro to know nor have we deemed it necessary to take the trouble of inquiring, but wo hope he has succeeded iu making himself fully as notorious as he anticipated ho would do by writing such an article. Wo would not have condescended to reply to the com municatiou were it not that most of his assertions wcro incorrect and others - oi such a nature as to reflect personally upon tho character of individuals residing in thij ullage and vicinity. Wo first copy from the flattering encomiums, ho so un sparingly bestows upon tho HcpuUicav, in tho tallowing quotation : "The fact that it is rapidly gaining popularity in this and adjoining counties is alone sufficient to show that it is duly appreciated by the reading portion of the community.'1 Al though wc have no personal fault to find with tho lit publican, yet wc are compelled to n' rm fie gei.tlcn.an,that he is laboring under a tad delusion in this rcpect; espe cially so far as this vicinity and neighbor hood i, concerned, and we have no idea that " Tyro's" professional duties or mat ters of business are of such a nature as to call him far from home, aud certainly not into "distant parts of this and adjoining counties," and consequently, his assertion without any facilities of positively proving his position is nothing more than a mere assumption without evidence to support it. Rut wo may not comprehend tho gentle man's meaning by the phrase "reading portion of tho community." If by this term, ho means himself and a few other individuals, wo will probably bo compelled to admit tho truthfulness of his assertion. If he wero to take tho pains to make tho uecessary investigation, ho would fiud that but a limited number of copies of the paper iu question is secured in the post oflico of this place, about 10 numbers were received a year ago, and now only abont eight copies, and still more, that persons who were personally frieudly toward that jour nal, are now giving it tho "cold shoulder," owing to somo of its ultra principles. Wo must now pass on to somo other points. It is unnecessary for us to speci ally notice tho patiiotio ttylo iu which , c .1 ,- i vn- " iiru" speaks of the national difficulties .it i , and cf the duty of every truo and loyal American citizen, to rally around our iu- suited banner and strike a blow for our country and freedom. If jou but look at thn c.litorinls of nnv nf nnr lnnilnm In,,.. ! nals of tho present day, you will find a I truo and faithful copy of them, and from 1 which wo have good reason to believe ho ! amioJauco at first "wcl'0 El0,") has taken a largo portion of his remarks spacotoo small to accommodate tho uum verbatim. lors" There is a passago, moreover, which wo Considering, that at tho time Iwroto,tho must notice, aud in order do so nioro fully, most of tho men wcro raw in camp, unused wo will mako tho following quotaticn .

This assertion, like many of his others, is en tirely uncalled for, nnd besides it is alto gether a misrepresentation of truth. It is true, ivo have men hero who ,arc not so limited in their definition of tho word Union ns to apply it exclusively to tho North and thu3 entirely exclude our breth ren of the Southern States, men who em ploy the word Union in its true and most cxtcu.dud signification, and lovo it aa they do their own lives, and who earnestly and truly hoped that sonic conciliatory measure might bo effected, granting equal lights and privileges to all parties concerned, aud thu prevent the gatliuiingstorm aud avoid tlio necessity of plunging our country into a long aud civil war, with all its coucotni- taut horroi-3 of destruction and bloodshed. Rut when tho day of conciliation is past, and actual hostilities have begun, those very mcu, instead of "openly identifying themselves with tho destroyers of our country," arc willing and ready, their country demands tbcm.to rally around her insulted banner, and with tho Stars and Stripes proudly and majestically floating o'tr them, fight for the preservation of our glorious Union. Such men are uot asham ed of their conduct, and arc ready at any time lo compare notes of their actions with t!ioc who have been long and loud iu their cries of "save tho Union," and wo are very confident they woutd not suffer by comparison. Tl.cy arc not willing under any "peculiar circumstances to let the Union ulide rather than grant the south her equal rights and piiviloges," but are will ing to contend manfully for what is honor able and just. Such a personal attack as this upon citizens of this place and com munity is entirely deftituto of any foun dation whatever, aud "deserves only to be mentioned that it may be despised." CltlTIC. 10.

Mr. lidilor ; Iu glancing over the columns of tlio lldmUican of May auth lr-01, 1 noticed a communication signed "A Soldier," tho intuition of which was to bring discredit upon my letter to you dated Jloy lcSUl . As the facts which I stated wcro so notorious iu tho Camp, I concluded not to reply to it ; aud I did not tear the effects of such an anonymous communication at home. Whilo on a brief visit to tho pcoplo of this place, I ae cidcntally found out tho author of the com munication, and concluded that a few words of refutation might not be amiss. Through no fault of tho Editor of the Re publican, I have learned that "A Soldier," is a member of tho "Iron Guards," though ho represents himself differently. He must have tho attributes of omniprescuco and invisibility, and with these constantly attend the person of Mr. McCauley who (is not a Captain) or tlsa ho could uot so confidently assert that my assertions wero falso and unfounded. Somo of tho expressions which he used, wcro in places where it was imposiblo for Mr. "A Soldier" to bo. And yet, whilo I hold myself responsible for tho truth of ivcry communicition I make to the public press, I am willing aud able to prove by dozens of witnesses from tho "Iron Guards" and from tho Company of which McCauley iPfli a member, tho truth of every state ment therein made. "A Soldier" had my opinion of his communication whilo I did not know him, and his name will appear if , . ..,,,,,, ho does not stick to facts In tho future.
