The insinuations; would do me great
injustice were it not for the faet that
iiioiiiiiiii in neopie nave lonir since
learned to pay little or no heed to the
vituperations and abuse of the Demo
cratic press and calamity howlers on
ttie stump and street corners.

teem ot good people I wish to say
1 1. i. . i. . ..
iiiioiign mi columns oi your paper
which you sq ireeiy lend to the abuse
of Kepublit ans that I know nothing of
the way the bill got into the ollice of
tlie enrolling clerk.
Mr. Monroe asked me to look out for
the bill and I promised to do so. but ;is
. j
mere were as main as twelve c erks in
tlie ollice. the bill did not sret, inn. on-
nanus until l took it with a bundle h
have signed by the .Speaker.
Mr. Monroe knows aU about the way
the bill was taken, by mistake, from
me table in the House over to the Sen
ate lor he was told. If be desires to
divert comment from his vote on the
Douglass resolutions ( for which I do
not attach any blame) he should adopt
some other mode than that of bearino-
ialse witness against his neighbors.
