This 1ea9ed "Vi- ator" not having been hurled along the road at railroad speed, and inwardly cursing stagese-stag- ing and drivers, and seekiiig whereupon to verit his pent up wrath, grasps his masterly quill, and pours Out his venom on the devoted heads of both driver and proprietor. Now, had "Viator" stuck to truth; I would not have said a word, for it is possible on the best conducted lines, someirregu- laxities may Occur, and any information regard- ing annoyances to travellers on my stage would be thankfully received and ptomptly attended to; but that "Viator," shetting right and left, -in hopes to kill, at least, t driver, manages to shoot Wide , of - the truth.- -Firet he says, "two hours elapse after the arrival .of the train before the stage is ready, and if an extra is required, three hours." Now, Viator," such is not the case. The stage starts as soon as the mails are assorted for the north, andtif an extra is required, it is get ready as soon. as circumstances will permit. You know nothing shout it; or why a delay oc- curs. Next, "Viator" says., "at each tavern a- long the road the rider dismount& to liquor up." This is simply a feleehood, as neither of my driv- ers are drinkers any morethan " Viator.". If a post. office is a few roads distant, the stage is usually driven up to the hotel, that passengers who wish to dismount to " liquor up," or any- thitg else, may .do so ; and I have yet to learn that this is not the usage on any stage lite in the country., "Passengers are continually subjected to insolence' and abuse." This is another.. -down. tight" falsehood, as any one who ever travelled the road, very well knows, and this insolent and abusive "Viator" can substantiate nothing of thO kind. _ Trunks and extra. baggage are charged at -ordinary rates, and. not.so high as on some lines, extraordinary charges are ,mede.- Viator s charge about keeping back change when a bill is handed, end a paSgenger _tolcl to take what he could get, or walk, is a malicious falsehood, and I defy this " Viator," whoever he is, to support it, through.' the Press or elsewhere. I fling back his. insolence and abuse, and no mane I care not ' what his position may be, but a gneaking and malicious knave, would write falshoods tending to drive men from earning a livelihood, who are equally ae honest and responsible as high sound- ing "Viator." Yours very truly, WILLIAM ARMSTRONG, Ainleyville, August 24, 1870, ACCORDING to an announcement published in last week's Huron Signa, that journal has chang- ed hands, Mr. 'W. T.

Particulars of the Chinese Massacre ----- It appears that the respOnsibility of the atrocious butchery- rests entirely upon the Chinese authorities, and the only apologist for the appalling crime is the United States Consul at that port. The mob weie not only incited by the Chiuese Governor of the Province, but frequently urged to commit the atrecities. Their ignorance and- sewer- stition were worked upen by the most -re• markable means, and official - publicatiome taught them to believe that the foreigners who were in Teintsin intended to kidnap women and children with the design of kill- ing them and converting their bodies into drugs. A mob held possession of the French set- tlement, Mal trea,tingall foreigners who were abroad, for two days before any blood was :thee, and the Governor not only did not restrain or disperse, but he even peemitted his soldiers to encourage and aid it.
