CATHARINE BELL, Gm rdiaa. april 13 id 44 TO THB PUBLIC. AT the letting of the Mail contracts, four years back, Messrs. Reeside, Saltmarsh, & Co. were the successful bidders on the route from this place to Columbus. The then contractors, Knox and others, sold their stocks, yielded the road, and allowed R., S., & Co. to pursue their business unmolested. In October last, these gentlemen were in turn underbid, by two bidders, Shiver the lowest, and Miller, Horton, & Co. the next. Shiver did not comply. Reeside & Co. being on the road, the Department offered them the contract at Horton & Co.’s bid, This offer was rejected. The contract was then given to Horton & Co. Have Reeside & Co. followed the example of Knox & Co.? No; but boastingly threaten the new contractors, if they come on the road, they shall be run off. Let us put their conduct in plain English, and see how it will read. Does it not say “We are strong, we will teach you howto interfere with our interest; you have prevented us from getting 100 dollars a mile for carrying this mail, by taking it at about 50 dol lars ; we could have had the fifty dollars and the road without opposition, but we had fixed our price at 100 dollars a mile, and will not be disappointed; we will run without the mail, carry passengers at half price, yea, for nothing, until webreakyou down, and then we will make the Department and the community return our loss with double interest.” Is not this their cal culation ? What will afgenerous Public think of such arrogance in a few purse proud Stage Drivets ? In a little time, these Gentlemen will take upon themselves the TYouble of dictating to the Department and to the public their own teimsfor serving them. Messrs. Horton & Co. let us have an interest in this line to Columbus. And on the first of this month, we had it in complete operation. We boast not, we promise nothing; out with Uncle Sam’s Pocket Book under our arm we shall pursue a steady course, always (without an accident) arriving at out appointed time. This Book is valuable, we are all interested in the safety of it, and therefore invite all travel lers North and West lo come with us and as sist us in guarding it. At Columbus, a few days since, several Gen tlemen inquired for the Mail Coach. The Agent of the opposition urged them to take their Line. The gentlemen insisted on coming in the Mail Coach. The Agent said, “ rather than it should be thought by them, that the op position could not arrive as soon or sooner than the mail, he would take them for nothing.” The gentlemen 1 eplied “they were not Beggars, they wished to pay for any services rendered them.” We hope to find many such high mind ed travellers. Our Horses, Coaches, Drivers, and Eating Houses are good ;so are theirs; our price will always be the same as the opposition; these being equal, it will be for the traveller to choose the firm he wishes to patronize.
