OMISSION OF the Patriot, that irrelevant to the
point ut issue, and oy taking refuge, as usual
b'h'nt bis redoublable Appendices / would now ask
MT. u. II had not "a shadow OF proof for my as
se.tion respecting Massachusetts, But Mr.. O. says
represented him ignorant of these changes Mass
and Md. True, Charity did induce to believe that
ne was Ignorant of them; because did not wish To
suppose Inn guilty of endeHvoring to impose upon the
puoc d!Seloods for tacte b,t since lie denies igno-
rance, VIII give him the benefit Gt alternayc:--
He either knew h., did not know that the freehold
or property qualification of was abolished in
Mass and Md II lac knew they were abolished
while his Legislative chart represents them ar ex-
listing, then he Is guilty Of treachcry and deception
towards the public; if he did not know that they
were abolished, then he guilty OF volunteering
to execute u work. which he proves inadequate to
perform. Mr.. G. may take which horn of this diem
ina he chooscs-cithcr will transfX und hold him be-
fore the public, not Ill the most envinble light.
MI o.. whole course respecting these "i-fated
Charts has been well calculated to render him OBJ
noNious TO public crnsure. Whenever the mstatc.
ments Ill his charts have been exposed lie has eyfb-
ited The most disgusting petulonce and the most til
fling prevarica oIi. " hen the Inquirer detected his
errors respecting the ''bass of re; reseitation' he
frettcd ravrd, and uibbled abou the difference be-
tween 1.-the Legislative chart and tho charts and in
sisted that the charts were right and the Enquucr
wrong. But after the Enquirer pressed home the
MEASUREMENTS and left DIr q. back door to escape
from, he turned round and with very bad grace uc-
kno lodged nat tie Legislative chart ht lave been
improved, aud that he had the press u Post
1erilt TO supply the omission" tNuv If Mr. e. Will
promise to send on to the press, another POSTSCRIPT to

take their tfst lesson on IIr G s. Legislative map.
- huc II q'lte amusing 10 hear the apologies Mr.
u, oic's TOR his charts wien their errors are iu-
lu'ip!y lascncd ON his forehead. 1t one tine his
Legislative Map was too small to contain tie ritll,
Enough 1t happened to b. large enough TO contain
much that Is untrue!) Again, to have cnlarp ID it

HoweVe, as am advocate for condor I must
Gckhowle,ge that there is point upon Which Mr.

Mr. Carnett inmatcs that his e'priva e clara ctcr"
has been assalled. 1t difficult divine his motives
for making unfoandcd an ailusion unless If h, ia
excite public sympathy: certainly nothing said in he

bear Cut the lnsnuation. This vagary only be
accounted for by supposing,-rorn the exposure of
