10 the Editor CT the tribune:


You have handled the gentleman Soda In
the Journal of Commerce ofthe 18th INST. IN your
paper of this morning, as he should be, but there
is portion of his remarks that betrays 50 much
ignorance and stupidity, or design upon the credu-
lous readers of that paper, that will lay them
before you.


He represents that all Western butter is inferior
to Orange County, and the prices are brought to
show, with every plausible appearance OF truth,
as the difference in market quoted by him is about
6 cents the pound at least, and some more
Western butter when put up in oak firkins, well
made, is generally sold here as Orange County,
and to this cause it may be attributed that there
is so small portion of good Western butter that
is called so-all that is inferior being generally
put in thin ash tubs frkins, and lightly hooped
the consequence is that the brine leaks out, and IN
warm weather the butter spols. If the position
he assumes that all Western butter is spoiled by
using Western Salt, then Of course there would
not be any good butter found amongst it. Is this
the fact | say no. We often find as good
Western butter as Orange County butter.


As a specimen of his profound production l VIII
only refer to one assumption, to show how much
he knows He says that Western better begins
to sour in January think this must be news
TO dealers IN Dulter. IL tueic 10 any oho 'i''' M
admit this, he must be soft indeed, as it is well
known that butter will keep during the cold
weather without change, and that is from Novem-
Der to March at least, and often later.


would here say for the information OF all
those Free Trade writers in the Journal and
Evening Post, that had they lived during the last
war and uttered such sentiments as they now put
forth, they would have been thrust out OF lam
MANY Hall, and branded as British Tories, Blue
light, Federalist &c. Have the principles OF
Democracy undergone such change, or is it the
men AN OLD REPUBLICAN,.
