CORRESPONDENCE.

We do not hold ourselves in any way responsible for the views and sentiments exr: pressed by correspondents. Axl. communications must .be accompanied by the' correct name and address of the writer,' not-necessarily for. publication, but as a guarantee;of good faith., ' (To the Editor of the, .Mount. Ida Chronicle.) Sib : In,speaking.of the ,prpposers -and seconders, on the nomination day, at the Court; house Naseby, I see you have prefixed Mr ,to all the names except John Cogah's and mine. ; "'"' Now sir will you be so kind as to ex- < plain why you took exception to - our names. Was it because we opposed you at the election, or does'the person to whose name this term is prefixed require to hare some deed of gallantry done or perhaps he requires to be a great statesman or warrior, if so then I am satisfied as I am neither the one nor the other. * But in my opinion the cause is either ignorance, negligence, or narrow-minded bigotry. I wish to inform you that I care yery little whether you prefix Mr to my name, but I cannot stand by and allow, you to sneak in an insult, through the columns of your paper without at least letting you know that I knoyv what, an insult is and;hpw to resent one top., If you have done so because I opposed you at the election, I would do so again, and do without the Mr. ; . By inserting the above you will obliged lam sir yours. •'.' ; '• r 7 " '''•■•■'''•■ ' P. M. MOBONY. P.S.
