The reader, to b convinced that have

Il appears By the ta0imony Of Lyon, that
Duane was hunted from Europe to this
country, T:y bD t~4st5-ihat when he ar
rived here h was incapable Of earning his
bread by by common 63nsg labo--that he
wss poor and Pennylels- thar he was 1
ragged vag3bond that he had guilty
downcaft look-that he was bemircd III
filth ; and finally, thath be pcftGcd no OH
er distinguishing property thar that Of abll-
iy to write with feverity to give falB9ad

trlt6 the appearance gJab6eod. It further
appears, that The democrats, being at that
time in confiG for the reins Of govern
ment, with the Warrington party (for
Warrington was then prcfdept) knowing
all thele facts concerning Duane, never
thelelS gave hi D their e0unttnanCe and in
dulgcnce-gave him ;hc management Of
their principal prefs; and enabled him to
put on clean fhirt, to Fill his belly, to look
little 1eek and to hold up his head. Was
this attention paid him OH account Of lis
crimes in Europe: Perhaps not. Was il

caui- he could not earn his bread honehly-
becauic ne could give faIihood and lies lome
Tendance Of truth, and give truth the ap-
Pearance Of falfhood. II is only neceHary
to look back to the works Of this " ragged
vagabond," TO fee how we'll he executed
the talk for which he was hired. 1t is an in
difputable fact, that all the principal char

his accomplices, who nerved his arm and
directed his hand: And we are alo told,
that although thele charges wereIlss, ltill as
