 THE FouL-MoUTHED GANNET.

 In his last number, the Foul .inouthed Gannet of the Gazette, has disgorged, as usual, no small quantity of his 'sdirty7I filth.

 We did not charge him, directly, (al- though we believed it at the time, and circumstances have since transpired toI strengthen that belief "with the sup pression of our papers and letters" " We said that circumstances, taken in connection with the fact of his conniy- ing-yes, CONNIYlNG, we repeat at the franking of a certain quantity of circulars, bysa person who had not the right so to abuse the franking privilege. (and Mr. Ashley's Printer well knew it at the time, inclined us to the belief, that there was something rotten about the establishments That there is some thing rotten about the premises, We are well satisfied, from the very frequent use, in his last, of the word " DsRry.3 We said that circumstances had trans pifed to strengthen our belief, that viii lainy was going on. We refer the reader to the following letter, to the Editor, which was received through the Post-ofiee, the day qt7er our paper of the 18th. ut. made its appearance:

 s Lialez Rock, Jun. %, 1a32.

 Sir-You had better keep a look out for your papers-I mean your exchange papers--they are stopped in the Post-of- fee. l assure you this to be fact.

 T jt'ie'sd to the sadeacGte.'

 The above note. it will be seen, was zcritten and deposited in the Post-oflice, fve days before the appearance of our paper, and not received until the day qfter its publication. We know not the writer of this note, but we have it in our possession, subject to the inspection of the Deputy Postmaster, if he has any curiosatyin that way. Having told how lit come into our hands, we will leave the public to make their own comments upon it.

 That the Foul-mouthed Gannet can prove the charge of suppressing our papers and letters, "to be destitute of foundation," we hare aot-nor uiH not deny-there are too many persons be- longing to what is. termed the Ashley gang, who can reconcile almost any thing to their concieaces. Perhaps, upon a pinch, even Ashley's Printer would not stand upon t?fes.

 It is not true that others have not " complained before;" we have heard complaint upon complaint.

 It is really amusing to hear this apo- logy for nsan, who would creep into an augur hole to save his sdirtyn car cass, hold the language" the gro0ell- ing source from whence it emanated."

 $ The. Organ complains that he only received tzro papers by the mail which preceded the publication of his last pa- per- Yes, and he s.conplains,'' too, that his latest National Intelligencer, by the following mail, was only up to 22d December, while that of the acting Postmaster's was up to the 3lst. of that month. Pray where was our Intelli- genccr of that date7 Psrhops, that's best known to himself.

 ltis byno means"a mystery''to s,that the postmaster's paper < generallx con-
