I ilo net like llioi*. Hr. Ki ll,
The renHoii why I etmnot tell—
lint I do not like lliee, Dr. Kell.
During fair week, I,on. It. A.
Brinson, Represen tat i ve f rom Her i v-
on county, was in Waynesboro.—
Meeting Mr. Brinson, anil recoyniz-
iny in him ail the elements of a
high-toned, honorable, genial gen
tleman, we were pleased to meet
him, and after the usual greetings,
we ventured some light remark in
reference to the noise which the
Sylvania Tephone and Athens Ban
ner- Watchman had lately been ma
king itbout the expense which the
late extra session of the Legisla
ture had been to the State. The
remark was met in the same joc
ular manner—the remark and reply
both being of so trivial a nature,
and of no interest to the public, that
we took no note of them, and to
day do not remember either. In
our issue of that week, dated No
vember 9th, as is our custom, we
took notice of Mr. Brinson’s visit to
our city, In .which innocent para
graph, in the composition of which
there lurked no deadly poison, nor
under whose cover lay In fold no
envenomed serpent ready to strike,
w» refereh to this charge of extra
expense to the State, but in so light,
so trivial a manner that “a wayfar
ing man, though a fool” even though
he were the editor of the Sylvania
Telephone, could not, nor do we be-
Jeive lie did understand it in any
other light than that of a jest.
This is the first chapter in this
history; the second is tinged with a
darker hue, and we proposed) show
before we are done to what base
schemes men who are seeking
places for which neither nature nor
nature's (lod has ever endowed
them with the capacity to fill will
stoop to achieve their nefarious de
signs. In this instance, however,
by way of parenthesis, let us stop
to say that a liorrorscope with the
power of a thousand magnitudes and
a forty feet field-glass, cast adown
the dim vista of the future cannot
discern even the ghost of a chance.
When we first saw and appreciated
the infinite littleness of this hon
orable (?) editor, this u\ J. mat hews,
we were inclined to treat the whole
matter with that silent contempt
which such action merits at the
hands of all honorable men. But
Avhen, after reflecting, we saw
through the transparent scheme of
this Ransey Sniffle, and that he was
attempting to injure an innocent
man for what for we alone, publicly
or privately, art' responsible, we de
termined the public should know
the facts, and now proceed to give
them.
In the first place, as said above,
the paragraph upon which this w. (.
mat hare seeks to predicate his at
tack from behind the bushes upon
an innocent man, was nothing more
than a jest—and it bore that con
struction upon its face. In the sec
ond place we do not exchange with
the Athens Banner-Watchman, and
there was no way under heavens
for that paper to have come into
possession of that innocent little
paragraph with such celerity ex
cept by the hands and through the
agency of the editor of the Tele
phone, and who was swift to pub
lish comments unfair and injurious
to Mr. Brinson, and as quick to
dodge being the excuse that he
only reproduced what the Watch
man had already published. But
whether he sent the paragraph
away or not, and if he had had any
thing to say in the premise, how
much more manly it would have
been for him to Rave said it under
his own editorial head let the peo
ple of his county be the judges.
