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-

honorable men, liavo tlesccntlcd so far in
tlio scale ot Icing as to to uttcily insenst
bio to all that constitutes moral greatness,
and have forfeited that impress which gives
tho human dross its currency a priceless
reputation by openly identifying themselves
with the destroyers of our country." 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."

Rr.oo.MsT.ur.a, Pa., Juno 10th 1801.
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.
Tll0ro is nothing iu my letter to lead a

Cor.. L. L. Tatk,
Dear Sir : In tho Columbia county
ll'publiutii, of May Udth, I observed an
article headed "Letter from Jcrscytown,"
and signed ''Tyro," which contained some
uttoily falso asset tions j and for tlio sake
of general information to your readers and
also of exposing the author, (no matter
who nor where from,) I desire briefly to
refer to some of said assertions. In the
first place Mr. ' Tyro" passes tome high
components on tho editor, and then goes
on by referring to tho present crisis, and
giving (pe"?IJips as lie supposes) soiac very
