good and through evil report, Notwithstanding you inpute
political motives which, relates to yourself, nov pro-
coed to examine.
In attempting to display the motives by which
you are influenced, and showing that you are not
governed by any regard for the interests you ap-
pear to advocate, ain following an example which
you have set me, and whatever of ncvilitv belongs
to it, you will take to vourself-you charge that
" your part IS to manage the manufacturers of
n Z. county and to drill them into the support of
General Jackson for the Presidency" "You have
put yourself on the foreground as their champion
and advocate, and appear determined to assume the
exclusive charge and management OF the concern
in Newcastle county,

me for several years, and you know that have
always been the advocate Of a system OF protec-
zion in its most extensive sense,--aid notwitn-
standing what have written upon the subject and
which you do moi in any way disprove, but SIMPLY
DENY in many well arranged sentences, for the
purpose OF spreading abroad belief that my par
