A few word» to thot>e who try to bend of ev* ry person L> the Intel eat of Newark (, ollen« : and all wlioin they cam.ot warp I ,i I t.o,i'ii i/ixkta/n tii.iit- 21 or bend they insult. I have known their |x>liey oi getting money for a l°|*g time (;a before they not their lick-spittle, coon aï and ape-headed squirt and newspaper Ledger to stand* r all persons who would not bend to their policy, for they well know their pr* position to the late Legis l*Luie w ta an indirect oiler of bribe : for Utiuc was an indirect oi ei oi »r oe , »or what right had one imiuber to select one boy out oi bis Hundred and appropriate $200 a ye <r oul tlie tax-payers' pockets to • dunste him, and they did not care if said members selected their own son*, as u member not 20 miles from here it is said did a few years ago. And further, every sensible man of them knew that if the door was opened to give them *0,000, witli equal propriety four or live oilier institutions could bave made similar de mands ; and when they finally could not gei the $0,000 for tlie pretended scholar ships lhey liegged outright for $2,000 to pay Mr. H. S. McCouib—a cool request, indeed, for a deblor to call on a Legisla ture to pay his debts. I could not stand idly by and see such attempts on the State Treasury, but the instant I wrote a line agai t them in the Gazette they started iheir curly-tailed liste to barking at me in the one-eyed mule Ledger, and 1 have borne with him until 1 hail to tell him plainly of tbe species he represents. The coon represents a sneak in me dark, and an ape a would, 1 suppose, make just such a fel low as would suit his employers at New ark. Hut i have this consolation. Let me be what 1 may in the eyes of the Newark College men, a large majority of tlie Legislature thought as 1 said, and re fused to sanction tlie Newark schemes. And I say it cheerfully that Newark Col lege had in Mi. Couch, brother of the Senator, one of tlie best and most gen tlemanly advocates it ever had at Dover. Hut the fates weie against him. It would not do to open the door of the State Treasury to any college to the ex clusion of others, and if to all, there was uo knowing how soon a revolution would taae place between the rich and poor, it is better for all persons to unite on the commou ground of the free school system, and those persous wishing their childreu to have a sectarian or classical education pay for it themselves extra. This fellow that runs the Newark Ledger first called me pig-head, although my crauium measures 7| inches, and of course 1 had to retort, and in recollecting him and thinking over a suitable descrip tion, I thought tlie coon and ape com bined would about meet his case ; and young man, not your coou head, as you refer to that, Inaid would debar yonr entrance to tlie Kingdom of Heaven, it was your cross of both coon and ape, and general deformity that the beripturt s speak of. You lake exceptions to that and say tlie Scripture declares no drunk ard shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven. That of onus» gives me no alaim, for 1 never was drunk ; but i am surprised at religious masters in Newark allow ing you to make such sweeping charges against drunkards. Have you not been tii unk ? Are you not now on a kind of probation, having to hide from the sight of a whiskey bottle? Hut Mr. Coonand Ape you were in g< oil company that man need lie ashamed of. Is it not ad mitted that God knows everything ? Therefore, when iiw determined to deluge the world and drown all but a few, did he not select Noah to build a boat called an ark, to hold just such as God want* d »pie the world utter the deluge ? And does not tlie Scriptures tell you dial aft er the ark i ested on Mount Amtrat, Noah got drunk ? Now did not God know this before hand? And it further says that Noah had an ungrateful son ; that aller his father saved him, lie made fun of the old gentleman whilst drunk, and he (Noah) put a cur»eon him. Then again vvnen God determined to make another change in the world's arrangement, does not the Testament tell you (hat Christ's mother hud him with her at a little ry-makmg one evening, and that the wine ran out, and that there appeared gieat mortification at such an uu.ooked for event, and when the mother of Christ found out the (rouble she told them to make themselves easy, that lier son could turn water to wine. The jars were filled up with water and Christ immediately turned the water to wine, and the good time continued umfl morning. 1 sup pose*, young man, talking about liquor, all grain and fruit have spirits in them, and every human being that eats bread or fruit, or both, and drinks water, is a still ; and those that add distilled spirits by an other process causes drunkenness, if he takes too much, which 1 suppose has been your case. Your reference to a porpoise, iu your last, does not strengthen your case. The porpoise swims generally in deep salt water, coming to shoal water sometimes to feed, but liiere he makes a noise to give warning ; whereas tlie coon will steal, in the night time as quietly as possible, to tlie nearest ben roost and rob ins neighbor ; and an ape would giggle at tbe trick. As to the Lottery Hill i was not in Dover during its brief career. The old Lottery Hill 1 favored to save ihe is suing of {State bonds at that time, but had not this late abortion Lottery Hill a $(K), C M H) item ill it for Newaik college. .It is you and your friends at Newark that should go into mourning for that $00,000 loss, not me, for 1 was not at Dover when the bill expired. {SAMUEL TOWNSEND. Townsend, March 31, 1871). Letter from Nam net Townsend. imic—the two combined tn .e-| ' »I of New Jctmj Jiulgt'«» Trenton, N. J., April 1.—General McClellan to-day appointed the follow ing as law judges in the Court of Com mon Pleas :—Essex county, Ludlow Mc Carter; Mercer county, John H. Stewart; Monmouth county, Alfred YValling, Jr.; Middlesex county, Andrew K. Cogswell. The State Senate of the Legislature re fused to confirm these judges when nomi nated by the Governor because they are democrats, and they are now appointed to fill vacancies until tlie next Legisla ture meets. _ _ Tbe New York Herald publishes a ;e, to the eff. ct pri ami . d in the A touching 8»r«ei-oar roiui tluit a young lady ot weal'h aud respecta bility, named Clara Treadwell, lately be came enamored of a street-car driver named Deunis McQuiun. She did not let concealment like a vonn get in Its work, but boldly told her love aud induced Dennis to abandon a former sweet heart aud fly with her to Philadelphia, where they were married. The couple now live in the sixty-fourth sectiou ot a tumble down tenement house, but there are ru mors that the bride's parents will soon become reconciled and give the couple enough tD settle down on » WMtern farm. The attention of Ex-Governor Hubbard, of course, Is respectfully called to the denoueuiout. «0Ö id 621 A Mu B«ir. Id the second story of ouo of the low rickety wooden building* on the east Hide of Chatham street in humble apartments, there live« one of the moat curious of hu ""*» mnnatroattiea. It m a boy or man, 21 yearn and (> months old, having been bf) J n in 1Hö7| ,ha? , M in a j| respects physi (;a ||y an ,i mentally, nothing more than aï , overgrown infant. I ta parente Mr. and Mrs. Jacques .Tenu, of 105 i tham street, iuduMriouH French people, Tbs child was born on the 10th of Juue l&»7, and wasi christened Ju le. Up to his «*^I*th month he did not dlller from other children ; hut at that age he lakf , n Hlck w j th an d for six months it was thought he nould not, live, one childish disea.-e following rapidly upon another. His last ailment and the one to which his parents Hscribe his de ; a Ladies', Gent's & Children's Under is are Obs forrnity, was one that baffled tbe attend* ing physician, and is described by the father os ''»he English disease." Both physical and menial growth seemed to be arrested by f ids disease. The boy is not quite three feet high, hut measures four feet around the waist, being inordi nately corpulent. His head is well shaped, but looks much too large for his hoily, being more than two feet in cir cumference. His hands and seet are ceedingly small, like those of a one > old iufaiit and he weighs 1G0 pounds. Every effort ha« been made to educate him, but he is not capable of learning anything. When he was ten years old scarcely two feet high, almost 100 pounds. The hoy's it, and white like a he hut weighed «kin Is remarkable baby's. All his habits are childish, and he can speak only a few words, "papa," "mamma," "yes," and "no." His extreme corpulence prevents him from walking hut he is very active with his hinds and feet. He amuses himself with childish toys, and is very shy when strangers are about. Ex-Police burgeon Baker who has examined tbe case very closely for several years, says, it Is the most wonderful case he ever heard of. The boy has been examined by a number of scientists who have all come to the conclusion that be is a perfect baby in mind and body. His father has been ap proached by many showmen, who were anxious to add the boy to their list of at tractions; hut he has declined every offer, not desiring to have his sou exhibited to the pub.ic. ;h Mr. Galusba, a one armed soldier, liv ing near Aurora, HI., recently found the bones of Ids lost arm in a Vickburg, (Miss.) cemetery, where they had beeu buried after tlie siege. He identified tbe lost arm by a ring found on one of tbe fingers and preserved, the ring being numbered to correspond with the num ber of the little grave in which nothing but the arm was interred. Wm. Pitt Kellogg sees the handwrit _ the wall aud the prospect is that like Nebuchadnezzar he will soon be turned out to grass.
