 AIr. sevier's understrapper, in his last paper, declares that the .state-house has not STOPPED FOR WANT OF FUNDS. nor FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE, and showers up on the Editor of the Advocate all the abuse and foul slang he is master of, because he had said (whatis true that 1.-THE BUILD ING HAS CEASED TO PROGRESS FOR WANT OF FUNDS" In our last paper, we noticed this subject at some length, and referred the public, for the cor recmess of our statement, to two gentlemen of this town, who live in the neighborhood ofthe site selected for the building. They have since politely furnished us with the following letter. Let the public read 1t, and decide which Is the FLYING OR GAN"-the Advocate or the Gazette.
