on the spot. To this the other replied in
terras of defiance, which kindlmg the rage
Of Major B. ne suddenly exclaimed, -

Both Judge Washington and myself en-
deavored to intercede to prevent this extre-

has been most unIustly made abase calum-
nv against me / owe 1t to my character
to counteract if eau, in the most public
manner, the effects Of SO infamous report.
This step would have been much sooner.
adopted, had not felt an improperly In
doing SO. after the determination | had
formed and communicated to John Ander
son, of prosecuting him as one OF the au--
thors of the slauder. But am now salts
fed that longer forhearance may be nlsin-
terpreted by many to whom [ am unknown,
as well as by those who want either the
sensibiiity or inclination to appreciate nay
motives. Neither can | consent to wait
the slow progress of q lawsuit to overtale
and expose a tale, which if am rightly
informed, has already grown into mon
ster, and has extended itself far beyond the
little circlein which it was conceived. In
doing myself this act of justice, shall rest
upon the annexed statement given by a
man of truth and honor, declining every
appeal to the feelings Eof an impartial pub
lie, and disdaining to express any part OF
the indignation with which view the au-
thors and i,.stigators of this infamous re-
