MB. HOTTKS A*n NX*BBIXS AS I have been a reader of your column In The Mail ever since Its first inception you will tcrhape pardon me for taking tho liberty to adores* a few words to you. I have read many of yonr articles with considerable interest and sattelkctton, but I mast confess some of them also with regret. Among tho latter were those on the temperance question, was both surprised and sorry that one who oan wield the pen to so good an advantage as you and whose articles are certain to bo read by a large number of people, young and old, should express such opinions on this great subject. Pardon me, sir. but it does seem to me that you should be more careful and considerate in what you write. Are you not aware that you may do incalculable mischief by inculcating views which are at variance with the best interests of socio ty? Surely there is enough to tempt men to evil without encouraging them with the pen. I have always believed that when one writes it should be to make men better and if such is not his purpose that he should not write at all.
Excuse me, sir. if 1 seem too bold, am but an uncultivated man, yet I feel a deed interest in making my fellow men better and happier.
Respectfully yours, In answer to the above 1 have to say, first, that I was glad to receive D. J's letter and not sorry that his views disagree with mine. I should not care to writ* only such things as everybody could agree with, ibr if I did I should be constrained to feel that I was merely writing over again views which had been expressed so often as to be generally accepted. He who has any thoughts of his own, any opinions which have been evolved from bis own conscioc will invariably find them running counter to those of many other people,' and I think it is just suck views that ought to be expressed. They set people to thinking and thinking is sot a bad occupation for the minority of mankind. One might write column after column of platitude*, without accomplishing much. Very good things they may have been when they were n«, bnt so dreadfttl stale now that ibey bavo no effect. There is not much satisfaction in reading a column and merely feel when done that It is all as correct and indisputable as the decalogue. An article which makes you shake your bead and say, "well, now I don't know abotit that I think that Is a good deal mixed or which even make* you red hot mad you think it absolutely outrageous piece of this kind will do you good, very likely, for It gives you something to "put in your pipe and smoke."
Secondly, I am mrg "*reftft*nd OOBK siderate," in whftt I writs. As I said bobere I expect to be held to account, and am ready to account Ibr whatever goes from my pen. believe just as mnch as D. J.docs that he who undertakes the sacred function of authorship should have for his first and greatest ottfeot the ultimate Improvement of men {but I do not believe.this end will best be secured by columns of puling and canting commonplace®, all that can be add of which being that they are not bad, because they are not anything. There are two things essential to make any production valuable first, (hat it be l*»d and second, that it he reflect«f on. And if there is nothing in one's writing to excite thought, there will sot he tttythttogln tt to induce reading very long.
Thirdly, I am not extremely fearful of producing wida-^yrsad mfctokte# by "inculcating" fklse views, etc. The fast is I am not firm a believer in the incnlcatinsr doctine as some are, I not of the ufon that people In gene raj immediately assimilate and makes part of their mental or moral constitution every Idea thst ad—- —1 ihrorrh. th vrem or IVom tiid pt ----.::*.

THK Patrons of Husbandry In Minnesota have applied the principle of coOperation to anew industry—the pursuit and capture of horse-thieves. Hereafter each Grange is to have "five riders," who are, on a robbery of stock being reported, to mount and follow the culprits. To this end the Orange is to furnish them with fttnds not less in amount than and on giving.the hailing sign of the Patron, all other granges will entertain them free of cost, turn out to aid them, or lend them fresh horses. The organization of this &r^reaching associ ation upon such comprehensive print ciples is a matter of grave import to those of our readers who live in the sweat of other men's horses, and the occupation of the gentle horse-thief will soon be gone as completely as that of Othello, if he has to buck single handed against a million and a quarter of Pat-
and finding free lunches at every fitrm er's table.
THK MOWS MACHINE COMPANY. {From the Daily- Standard, {Bridgeport, Conn.]
As the recent embarrassments of the Howe Machine Company, from outride causes, have been widely known, it is that a somewhat detailed account iresent condition should be equalspread, and it gives us much eacuxe to promise that the real flujts Mhow that the company i» in a most unexpectedly sound and prosperous condition. Having already stated that the mortgage to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company has been released, we add the following letters which give the official proof that there are now no other incumwhatever on the property of this immense manufacturing concern. The first letter is directed to the Town Clerk of Bridgeport, by Mr. Stockwell, asking if there are other incumbrances the second letter is the reply of the Town Clerk, and is an official certificate which is regarded in this State as satisfactory proof] concerning the subject of which it treats. The letters are as follows:

The editor of the Union has my consont to sign Urn pledges, if he wants to. I have some views on the subject of pledges and I expressed them. I sua glad I did I would do the same thing again. 1 don't ask any human being on earth to accept those views unless he wants to. The editor of the Union has aeaise enough not to want to. That is all right. I shall not try to convert him. Perhaps, indeed, his views are the best so I should be sony to rob him. Meantime I have mine and shall not be backward about expressing them, for reasons indicated above.

It has been the practice of this company to pey all Its employes on the 15th of every month. That is, on the 15th of I JVbmarv they pay all wages due for the month of JannaiV, and on the 15th of March they pay for the month of February, and so on through the year but it Is well known that during the panic the company felled to make payments regularity, or to the fttu amount doe. We are "now informed that in the month of February all wages, about
TO,000,due to the let of January, were] *& a month or t* ootnpony expects
paid in Aali, anil In a month or two the oompony expects to resume Its former practice of paying promptly and in ftill on the regnlar pay days. The company has new OSB employes working eight bout* per day, and mj^Ung about 850 machhiee daily. On the 1st of April thev intend to resttme the tea hoar *ysni, and pot eo no iwwe workmen.
Duriiw these hard times the company has made a very careful estimate of Its propertv and ItftbtlitfCN, and they find that their total aaseta at a fldr estimate exceed ihetr total liabUitise liy the l»mense sura of 10^38,000. excluaive of the jlaM»w ihctory, which has not been afet lilt the ksw» by the temporary emfa ssKment* of the company in this mitrv.
