my probably, in the judgment of jour
"bumble servant, put him and his friends

lows Harper one hundred dollars and.
nkeiy more, to run the steamer Wood
bury, when any efficient and higbmih
ded man would have been g'ad to take
her for seventy-fire dollars,
ilr. Editor, the merchants of Smith
ville are' freqnently asked why they do
not compete, with J. T, Harper in pri
ccs, stock, &c. These individuals do
not seem to understand that these ad
vantagvsare given Harper through Ba
con; they do not understand the sup
posed copartnership between Bacon
atid Harper, because they can't geUthel
government trade; that if a man that
works with Bacon trades with any oth
er tbau Harper, be is discharged; tbey
do not understand that Harper's money
is safe, that Mr Bacon has, an eye to
that matter. When they ask these
merchant,' Wescott, Priggie, Davis,
Galloway and others why tbey do not
compete'with Harper, they simply ask
them why they do not contend against
the Eogineer Department! The fundn
of which it seems must directly or in
directly go into the hands of Harper'
through "the influence of Bacon. jThey
are almost as ignorant of these:, facts
as William. Soook's wife Sally wast
when she' thought William could not
gel a job because Canaday and Bacon
were radicals and he was a Democrat,
Now, ; William very easily ratisfied
Sally bssying to her, "Now, df rlind
