GOV. KING AND THE ARGUS.
We lave given place, 10 day, to two coimUni-
cations upon the subject Of the controversy be-

also 10 communication from Gen Richardson
himself.

who acquainted with Gen. Richardson,
bear ample testimony that bis character as a
man and a Citizen is as free from reproach as
that of any member of the community.
