The editor of that paper, in the comae of his controversy with the Gazette, affirmed in sub• atonic—l do not pretend to quote hie arords—that the subscription of the County of Allegheny really amounted to nothing, because she had merely loaned her credit, without incurring any risk, and was, moreover, booked by the guaranty of the eompaoy.

The inference of the Journal is, that the admis. alon of a temporary guaranty—sad that, too, pep able out of its own stock—is equivalent to the concession at a complete and independent in , demnity for all time; that the assertion of the Jour nal, that the county had lent nothing but her credit, end incurred no risk whatever, Is thereby con., 'id to be true; and that your correspondent mends flatly contradicted by himself "Observer" has always entertained great respect for the ahi Mies of the editor cf the Journal, but when he finds him , , resorting to such m inference, and crowning it with the cool assertion tbat, upon this "he might well afford to drop 'Observer' as self cony ict yd."

The admission, however, that ben, was even a temporary guaranty, which'the Editor la an willing t 9 consider as equivalent to s permanent and per petual one, Li followed Immediately by the sug gestion that it is no more than an engagement to pay, back, until the road is finished, a ,onion of the very same money, in the way of interest; and that, so fax from being peculiarly favored, in this particular, the County of Allegheny 'atends in no better position than any other stockholder. This very important qualification, which is an essential part of the argument, and was Intended to show, as it nost legitimately and unqueetimas hip did, bat even the temporary guaranty already admitted was to more than moonshine, is, strange as it may appear, characterized as "an attempt to mystify and neutralize the knee of the admit mon by a bit of special pleading not unworthy of e pettifogger.'

He would, In his Ignorance, have eopposed It to be only every important stem of seduce in toe support if a fist plea in her iovo lying a dental r the Editor's whole ease; admitting him, boo , 'seer, t, have been tet,teken in mots pertlentm, it unit be conceded, at all events, that, as a plea, it went directly to the :eerier, and, not being de- I tied or denieble, 1 lo far the public to determine whether it did not make out the position, beyond all cortroversy, that the statement of the Journal that the Canty had recurred no tisk, and sub stantially gout ihmed nothing bat its credit, and that under the guaranty of the Company, was clearly, palpably, and indefensibly wrong. In reply to all this, however, the Editor exclaims I with his nasal eenfidence,"how light a breath I will blow away this deluaion." He has accord legly blown that breath, and a refetence_to bas ar geirieet sill show bow pr..perly it was characters irs;d by timmlf as wind. The snorer is that toe indiridnal St - ekholdere have pmd cash, while the Count! , has given tooth. 1.1 but hulloed', which are alleged t, be weft! no mare than eine, ea per cent in the market, and t , is is asserted t. be the difference between the County and the other St ockholder, nand s he evidence th•t the Joernal Was putty cf " represectin ion' to toe suggestion that the Coact r bad incurred oo liar, and colt ihutin aubstactasi ly nit iag. Let os cm:aim ttisargumett, open gni !ti he seems to rest his ease with so much se.f complacency, and see wh, thee it is net the very air-blown bubble which "a breath" could genet+ . t', *Ma breath destroy. The Edit,, was a merchant, and has therefore the double advent ige cf your correspondent, in b, tog lath a financier and a lawyer—will he be hind enough to Lfarm up, thersfire, whether the holders of the Allegheny County Bonds will ex pect nctitor from the County but the interest on ninety see dollar:, for every hundred issued, or 1 whether they will be studied with their redemp tion at maturity oh the same terms? If that be the understanding, of coon, the County is to that event at least a favored stockholder. Bolus it be however, it is net very obnousto your cor respondent how she ts benefited by the fact that the Company may have thought proper to sell her bonds et n &mom% Will the Editor therefore of rem the public income more sen.faotory way, how it is that the circumstance of a guaranty out ~f the County's own money, until the road is fin ished, with an eventual liability for the interest an d p r incipal, dollar per dollar upon her bond", 1 and in the loco too cf a diminished stock, or a I cwt augmented by the amount cf interest actually paid to the stockholder', is to es tsts isti his propo titian, that the County lends nothing but her credit, and incur, no risk by her subscription? If it be mdeeda detestan that we shall have none the tree to pay became our bonds have to be thus cold, it is ono which, let me say to the Editor, wt I require more than bard names and the breath of • hollow and miserable sophistry a, blow away. The suggestion, that the scheme of paying in• wept on the iestalenents out of the capital stock was but •-rwenaciment of tne old device of moss miaing the vane of the stock of the Bank:, by making dividends out cf the same fund, comes in next fir it i share of the vituperatiou of the Editor. Upon this point, however, your correspondent Is constrained to admit that he cannot exactly comprehend the argument of the Journal We gill therefore dismiss It with the remark, that it was ant intended to-carry out the analogy, as the eon. test:ineicatel, to the palm of freed, but:usemly to show that what was alleged to be a guaranty &- Fatima all nab, on the part of the County, war no , more than a shallow took, without even the merit of novelty to recommend it, contrived only fir the 'cup, 0 of Inviting subscriptions, but amounting us effect to nothing, becamse it was on ly paying back to the stockholders a portion of their own capital. Your correspondent did not, however, rate to it sea fraud upon the public, but merely as • species of humbug, as regards the Wockloolders themselyee, excused perhaps in some measure by the new and equitable provisions which d involece, In thetinguiching between the ,otitrtbutort to the order of their priortty in time.
