The following note, with request that it
be published, received yesterday. Mr..
Whelan has no claim upon the editor of this
paper to publish his vindication. ] pubis
it as favor, not as right, and the British
agents are welcome to all the consolation it
can afford them. We can assure MIR. Whe-
Ian that the impression which will be made
by his defence, is very different from what

from removing doubts that it will confirm the
wavering and convince the most sceptical
that the Phoenix company haze /" expressly

FACT l. 1t is not denied by Mr.. Whelan.
that Mr.. Davis the agent OF the Phe NIX
Company at Charleston DID refuse to insure
the RomcspUn Factory, when required so to
do by the President OF the 5. e.. Homespun
Company.
FACT III 1t is not denied by Mr. Whelan,
that the agent at Charleston spoke the truth
when he said that - he was expressly inter
"dcted from making assurances On FACTORIES

FACT HI 1t is announced by Mr. Whelan
himself, that he also Is interdcted from
making any assurances Oh such mapufacto-
ries as are worked 6y StcQR,.
!. From these Facts we have right to infer
that the Directors of the London Phoenix
Company give different instructions 10 their
different agents according to their local
situation, and the probable interference with
British interests which may Come under their
respective districts.
For instance. III Pennsylvania we have iron
and other mines, and heavy works win Gu

A short time since letter of sim
gular chracter, dated New.York, Tan.
%, 1903, to General Douican in Lon
don, made its appearance in the Ma
tional Intelligencer, the editor of which
has not made us acquainted how or in
what manner it came into his possessi-
on. But from the industry, talents &
attention of our minister at London,
we are not at a loss to guess at the
source from whence its detection orr
ginated, nor doubt of its genuine in.
tent & existence. Its republicationa at the
present time serves to elicit the nature
OF forgery an epistolarv kind which
IS now going the rounds of the 8 itish
prints in the u. States. Cole man, the
British printer in Newly ork tells us
the originals were received in that ci-
ty from Paris and although in their
nature merely correspondence be-
tween two individuals, probably Of lit
tie note, whose initials are merely mer-
toned, he wishes 20 insinuate that tn v
bear at least semi Official character.
Mcpherson can mistake the design OF
the letters from their appearance in
France and the u. S. and from the
language which thew hold. No nation
in the world practises the infamous
arts OF deception so much as the En-
| glish cabinet and that the system OF
espionage is carried on BY that cabine:
TO as great an extent boih in France &
this country as in he proud capital OF
the naughty mistres. OF the Isles, we
have not left n doubt. These letters
are undoubtedly designed TO widen ii
possible the breach between the cabi.
nets Of ST. Cloud and of Washington.
