TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR'—Tiaving seen a paragraph in your Paper
of last week, stating that "on the day of Colonel 'WHITE'S
Election for the County of Dublin, the procession to his Com-
mittee-room was pleccded by a vehicle full of Romish Priests',
bearing a Crucifix surmounted with laurel, &c. &c." 'We, as
Members of Col. I T t's Committee upon the late Election,
cannot in justice to the cause of truth and independence, suffer
so atrocious a falsehood to go uncontradicted. 'We now, Sir,
beg leave to assure you anti the public that every word of that
statement is totally untrue ; and. we hope that you
.willhave the candour .and good feeling to give publicity to this
contradiction of ours. ...... . .

We are, Sir, -•' • • - .• . Your very obedient and very humble servants,
