If Mr. Adams b. ceusurabc at all, It is perhaps for

'nan of the name of Bun, editor of the Bradford Set

Igure at Harrisburg, when attempt was made last
winter, ts procure nomination of Gen. jackson as
President, makes the following charge upon Dir. Bnns
of the Democratic Press:
''NOt long since one Of the leading advocates Of
Crawford, Who II has been generally understood wrote

ated Presidential Electors in 824 at PhiIadelphia

Mr. Bnns snmmerset IN favor of Mr. Adams has had

To this MIR. Binns makes the following reply 1t is
10 be regretted, that all the inDumerabe alseloods OF
the day, coined in depravity, stamped with malignity
and circulated with the deliberate intent OF misleading
could not receive as decisive rcfutaion. We have
never known an instance in which the nim5Ie heels Of
iasehood were so cleverly and speedily tripped up.
