To Tue Eprror: Sir :—When in New York last week, I called upon the gentleman whose wife was grossly insulted last September by a Person in this city said to bea Lawyer, and and whose professional title is Jas. M. Ricks. I was informed by the gentleman in question, (who by the way, 18 my personal friend,) that the said J. M. Ricks does not in the slightest degree possess any of the characteristics of a geutleman ; that an apology has been demanded and the demand has not yet been acced- ed to. The gentleman in question bas perforce concluded that the dandy Washington Lawyer and masher is an unmitigated poltroon and coward, of the class and stamp whose highest ambition is to take advantage of any lady in the ab- sence of her natural protector, In this as in other escapades, this bril- liant member of an honorable pro- fession dishonored and sunk himself fathom deep beneath the contempt of decent people. There is no just reason why a lawyer should not be agentleman. Thereare many gen- tleman Y es arelawyers. The lady’s hasbafd will visit this: city-at an early day uu DUSsINESs, and he m j have pressing business with Lawyer Ricks, whose cowardly refusal'to ac- knowledge even the receipt of the formers registered letter demanding an explanation and an apology, has given bim jast reason to believe that Ricks is a rickety sort of aduck more courageous and daring in the company of ladies, than he could ba amoug men. These kind of masb- ers are at the bottom of all the social scandals, and pride themselves on their mesmerie powers. But they sometimes catch on to the wrong subjects. Mr. Ricks painfully real- izes by this time that his jadgement was in error, and he bit off more’n hecouldchaw. The lady’s husband will increase the dose when he comes to Washington. These are facts. J.E. BRuce, NEW YORK NEWS, A co'd spell followed by a warm one fills evey one with colds. Old residents here were shocked last week to hear of the death of Mrs. Emily A. Briggs, youngest child of John J. Quille, Esq., who died Dec. 3rd. She had been sick only afew days and was not sup- posed to have been seriously ill, Her funeral on Monday from the Shiloh Chureh, was largely attend- ec, the number of solid old New Yorkers attending, being especially noticeable. Walton Halton is preparing to give the young people here a chance to learn all of the latest dances and to have semi weekly receptions at the famous Knickerbockar Dancing Academy on 14th St. Thisis a move tosupply a long felt want; and as he will have the services of two German Professors to. teach the pupils, it will be a popular nove- ment. H. L. Smith, the well-known jour- nalist, died and was buried trom Bethel Church on Sunday. His funeral was also largely attended. Mrs. R. F. Me.Intyre and daagh-. er Eugenia, are in the city. Prof. Albert Mando gavea Grand Concert at Shiloh Chureh Monday Eve., at which several new singers were introduced to a New York au- dience, who seemed very much pleased. It seems that the sting of the ‘‘Bee” has been sharpened up late- ly and outrivals the famous shears of a tailor. In such struggles, it is only fair for outsiders to say, may the best man. win.
