FAUX PAS.

In our Paper of Thursday we gave a Letter addressed
by W. L. Watt-nu r, Esq. to the Editor of Galignanes
Messenger, on the subject of an alleged faux pas with
the Lady of a Captain B. We now extract from the
sameolournal, of the Ist inst. the following letter from
the Lady herself:—
" TO THE EDITOR, Fcc.
" have seen a paragraph in your Messenger of the 25th
inst. which, I presume, alludes to myself. I beg the anonymous
writer, whoever he may be, to desist from his false assertions, and
shou/ibe repeat them. I shall be under the necessity of soliciting
the deposition of my father, Colonel Paterson, or some of his own
servants and soldiers, servants of the Coldstream Guards to prove
before a Magistrate that the harmony" which subsisted between
Captain nigh and myself before our sojourn at Naples was not of
sto uninterrupted a nature as he has so confidently asserted.

writer, which determined me to return sad myself to deliver into
your hands this ,which I beg you will inset in yotit heat Paper. It
is with reluctance I am drives to this statatiieni, but the peidecu-
dons I have met with from Captain high, have driven me to it,
who, if his conduct be so unexceptionable, will no doubt, not fear to
face a British Court of Justice, ennead of protecting himself by
Foreign Ministers, Consuls, and the Neapolitan Police, in procuring
evidence for the ruin of his wife, and which he fears to produce be-
fore a Jury of his country.
