CORRESPONDENCE.

The Star Hotel, ■ [TO IIIE.EMTOS,] Hin,- -In ri'i'lv to Mr i'ownall, hey. to inform that' getificmin tlmt , have nothing mure to adit to my fo

mcr letters, and certainly nothing to *iihdraw, I was. made. sscq-iairited with ihose •" rules and constitutions prehetving the liberty of the subject," long, before he ltudw his right hand from bis left. In proof of which, let me again say that hiy firs'- letter was .written btfort it was announced in tlio papers that the police intended to t«ko action, therefore it was not subjwlia, My second letter was in print for some hours before I knew of the Bad fatal accident. Such being the simplo facta, for Mr Po.wnnll to keep harping on tho airings of" 11 ignorance and indecency," only lays him open', in ■ the opinion of all sensible men, to the charge of foil play,. My final word is this: that if Mr Pownall supposes that ho is going to frighten mo:into sileuco on the evils of drunkenness, gambling and impurity—evils which, as Chief Magistrate of the town, lie ought lo.ho as anxious to put down as myself—ho is YCvy much mistaken, Thanking you in anticipation 1 .1 am, etc., ..
