The facts of the cm-.p aic these : One of thec.utci-.on the railway woiks a respectable man, and whom I have known for the last eighteen years, came to me late on Haturdiy night and asked ire as a pi eat fawmr to let him ha\e t-omo beer to treat the men with on the Sunday, to keen them as- ho s-\id from gettinn- into trouble in the Milage. As the night was dark and the road to the camp \ery bad, I could not with safety send it that night, but promised ho should have it by daylight next in irning. A« for the payment being mado np by subscription, Mi Lewis may know nil about that, but I wai paid in advance by the party who ordered tho brer. Under the citcumstances I no\er -hould ha\e thought anyone would have put the construction on the alT.ur that Mr Lew id has done, but the fact is he seems to think that ho has lost ho udy by tho transaction, and so feels aggrieved.— T am, &c, CH\nn->!
