He "l'i's O support agalnst nm, there are traces ofa systematic attempt 10 deceive, which remind us nvountariy of the tactics of the worthy .'Peck- sniff"

 In ths columns of yesterdays Advertiser very violent assault is made upon the commercial editor of this paper, for announcing on Tuesday that he would issue on Wednesday morning an extra price current for the sleamers-W ednesday being the reg uIar day of the Advertisers price current, We are accused in unciv terms of "meanness, ," and charged with hsbItually issuing extras to interfere with the sale of his regular edition. The announce ment a. other times that were about to issue extra is complained of greVously preventing the sale ol his, by 'deering the merchants from obtaining their supplies from us," Itheml ahd the motive attributed to is that of unne ighborly selfshness. We must deny the truth of his statements and the justice of his compIants-bnt n as few words as possible. for the readers of price currents he but little interested in controversy originating in an assumption by the Advertiser of right 10 imu thsr supplies for his per. sonai p,oft Nor will we avail ourselves of his im- piled admission to the advantage of our own pubIica ton, in his complaint that his sales are injured by the expectation merely that intend to issue an ex tra. Our perfect right accommodate our custom CTS, by issuing suit the convenience of their business, does not admit of debate, nor should we complain of being Il-treated if any similar demand the part of the Advertisers customers should in- duce the editor to supply them with extra any, every day of the week, Saturday our regular day of publication, included. In fact, however. the Ad- yertiser charges untruly, when il accuses of ha- l. l.. l with it's day of issue and in the present case that of Wednesdays simultaneous issue, it Sappresses all the facts that it was done with previous notice, and ranged with the commercial editor of that paper him sell, so that any expression of dissatisfaction is | matter of grave surprise.

 The fact is there have been but three extra price currents issued from this office the present season, previous 10 the now in controversy. The dates on which they appeared respectively. were Monday evening, Nov 18th, Wednesday evening, Dec 18th, and Friday morning, March 2lst. The only issue therefore during the season by which the Advertiser suslans its complaints of 'slitte acts of illberaIty and petty neanness" 10 which he had "subniuted'' until his "paience was exhausted,'' is the issue some six months ago eff single extra on the eve. ning of the same day upon which he had price cur rent Tn the morning -giving him the whole posses. sion of the market for his customers before we com menced supply ing ours for the steamers. We never saw so big passion got up slender iounda | ton.

 | In regard 10 yesterdays issue, the Advertiser is inexcusable for it's ill-lemper, for il expresses very important facts, which take away even the color of design part to interfere with the business of that office. Our merchant. know the importance of correct statement of the receipts, exports, etc. of staple during the sea son, and especially of applying the usual and only proper test al the close of the business season, that of taking account of stock. The customary De. riod for this is the first of Juno. Our previous re- gular issue was the S1st ult embracing state. ments only up to the evening of the Both, at whcl time it was Of course impossible to furnish the ne cessary information, and our regular day would be Saturday the 7, which would be too late for the steamer by which It was particularly desirable to forward the corrected reports Monday was the first day On which the labor of counting the stock in warehouses and on board the shipping, could be commenced, which not completed until Tuesda, afternoon. As it WAS expected and solicited by ou, customers that we should furnish them with our sheet m time for their foreign correspondence, and as we an extra might interfere with the Adver- tiser, the circumstances were communicated 10 the commercial editor of that paper on Monday, and up on his objectng, the evening of Wednesday was proposed by us which he preferred but subsequent ly assented to simultaneous publication on Wed. nesday morning; we agreeing to furnish the Adver tser with statement of the stock of cotton hand which then taking, in time for his issue. Thl we did Gas acknowledged by his price current yer terday morning, which acknowledgment is striche' out before its appearance in the Advertiser newspa per,) remaining, after the conference alluded to entirely ignorant of any dissatisfaction on ths par of the Advertiser, the slightest suspicion thn there would could be any felt-much less lha there should he such an irascible article as tha | issued yesterday.

 We conclude this defensive explanation withou further comment than the simple statement Ina. whil we would not waive right 10 make our price cur rent complete and convenient for all purposes o the erciAl community, without feeling bound tt consider that other publications might be affected b. it, we never designedly came into conflict with th interests of the Advertisers price current but o the contrary would always prefer to avoid even lh appearance of It, could we do so without impalrin, the value of our own sheet, and disappointing thos' who habitually rely upon us for their supply.
