II i not true, as insinuated n the Argus,
III; Gen X. called Gen. K. 10 order. He
HI after Gen Il. sat down, and said be con-
'xseied, Gen. E. had made upwarrantable OBJ
'4yatlofs, on neriiorious officer, but would
xise him time 10 explain. +. replied, be pre-
suoed he was understood by The Senate-it
aot be would repeat The statement, which he
DID, and hoped il was satisfactory to Gen.
King. X. said it was not--but that Gen.
Chandler would shortly be in town, aud then
Gen. Il. would be glad 10 retract. Gen. c.
>oon came--when K. called On f. and said,
g had appointed him, as his friend, to adjust
1ks here aisugreea6is a6air--~and requested
II 70 sppoin, q friend to confer weh him.
Il. fold him, he had said nothing but truth,
nd saw no necessity oftroubIing friend at
he should receive any specific
from G. ii would then be in
season, TO ask the interlenee OF friend. K
uiged the appointment Of friend without any
Iarlher communication butF declined il.
Next day X. called again, when much the
same conversation occurred. The third time
I stated 10 him, that be considered il
Improper 10 call on a friend, without
having received something specific from c. on
which, 10 found his request ID his friend. X.
ihen said, c. will not challenge you, or make
you any further communication--but some
Thing disagreeable, will appear in the papers,
which viii make il necessary for you, TO call
on G.. f. replied, he was as ready for that
mode of warfare, as any other. X. said, il
would probably be such an one as could mol
be answered by argument--that military men
did not argue, Ssc.--but that be should not
lel tappear next day The day follow
ins, * called again, and said, unless F. con.
sluded to do something, he, K. could not pre-
vent publication. F. told him he had no
rish be should prevent it--but that be, +.
would hold him, K. and not c. responsible,
ior whatever might be published. K. then
lett him, and (. heard no more on the sub
ject, rom either Of the Gen's.-saw no publ
cation. 10 The papers-and received 20 COM
from G. other than, as before sta
led. It's false, or. If Gen. K. prefers the
IS a he, that Gen. Chandler, or Gen.
hing. eseT.did say, or write 70 Gen. Fessen-
dsn- oria any Uay communicate the fdee-
" that he neither possessed the feelings OF
snoticer, or the honour OF a gentleman"
From the preceding. statements, and previ.l
oas knowledge q the subjects, The following
prominent facts will suggest themselves TO ev-
cry reader.--When Geu. f. said In the Sen
ale, lie was authorized to say, the petitions
we're gotup. &c. he pointed out his author,
ben. X. called on hiqs, and he confirmed The
statement. !.
All OF Us know, Gen. F's. statement, with
'egard 70 Gen. c. and the troops al Portland.
has perfectly true. We haze all seen re
nolslrance of the officers. TO the commanding.
zen the State troops, against being placed
aoderths United States Officer. A majority
y those, who signed tIl,s remonstrance, were
aemocrats. Not as has been lately stated IN
ne Argus, a fesV republicans. who were de-
sehec and drawn into il, 10y the art and ad-
.iess, with which the remonsifance was drawn
They all acted acknowledgement
neT real wishes and intentions, and, il Is
,iesnned, remain Of The saae opinion still.
