L is scarcely necessary for the Editors to
remark in admitting into their columns
the two following papers, that they de-
part from a general rule excluding mat
ter of anirritable personal nature from
this paper. But personal considerations
will at ali times intermingle with those Of
general nature so intimately as not to
be capable of separation. Such is, in a
great degree. the character of the fol-
lowing publication, and OF others public
and private. which find their way into
the gazettes in these turbulent times
Gen. Porter ard Col. Van Rensselaer, are
both public men; the controversy has
excited much public attention the letter
of col. V. r. is in general circulation !;
and it is psrhaPs an act of justice due to
Gen. Porter TO permit him &c defend HIM
self through the medium of the only
newspaper printed in this city against
any impression which may have been
made against him here or elsewhere by
his political enemies. To do " equal &
exact justice unto all men," we have
pre- fxed to Gen. Porter's letter that OF
Col. Van Rensselaer,, tG which it is in

'%Sd"f '1|I'S, ~AS' "~'|' 49,
1fessrs. Printers,
A false and scurrilous publication which
has appeared in the Columbian, constrains
me TO soiiclt . place in your paper for a
short answer oft.
The statement in the Narthern-Whig,
which lis pretended led to the publication
in the Columbian. made its appearance
without my privitys or consent. and there
/. fore, am not answerable for its contents.
Il is true that while a, Lewistown in the
month of September last, the base conduct
ot i r. IN Oni Il, the quarter master
GENERAL, led me to brand him with the
.spithet of rGscG{. The result was that
Porter sent his friend to demand satisfacti-
,n of me Tor the insult. His friend appointed
time and place tor my friend to meet him
20 make the necessary arrangements, and
gave solemn assurance of secrecy. But
Porter, in violation of that assurance, i'm
mediately communicated the matter to his
partner, Mr. Barton, who informed Gen.
Van Rensselaer, thereof, and solicited him
20 put stop to it.
After several meetings between our
friends, and reiterated and unsuccessful
attempts on the part Of mine, by my drec-
; ton, TO press the business to a decisive
issue in the mode requested by Porter,
learnt that he had made the thing known to
several persons, and that his appointed &
recognised friend had avoided meeting mine
so fix deiinitiveiv, the time and place OF
, our meeting While | was expressing my"
self with some warmth at the rascality Of
Porter, Gen. Van Rensselaer, came az,
and with some pleasantly rallied me and
my friend, saying that this WAS Il pretty
affair indeed. that he had been obliged to
! keep a watChfu eye ON us, for that he mad
been made acquainted with the affair. by
e lo,,. al 4.
the first; and bad we attempted 60 leave
the camp together, he you'd have arrested
US both and would sill do il, if any fur
tacr attempt OF the Kind should be made
! then declared thac | would hOr whiD
the $conndrel for disclosing the affair
which gave rise 20 Gca. Van Ranssslaer's
positive orders to me to drop the matter.
and 10 his letter TO Porter of the 18th Sept.
which contained sinilar orders, and which
note vas delivered The same day.
Finding that had been tiilcd with b.
Porter, and that compliance with hi, de-
mAnd OF satj-f4ction on my part was rem
dered inpracticable by repeated and pit.ful
svasjobs Of his, addressed the following
letter TO him, which was Delivered the
same day By an officer Of the U. States ar.
NY, 20 wh Ch no answer was ever made.
