Sir: Upon my return home, after an
absence of four days, found your note
of the 30th ult. The copy of the Tele-
graph to which it refers, is intended for
the Governor, & not the Lieutenant Cor
ernor of Virginia. "Under existing cir
cumstances," you will please to return
such copies as may have come to your
possession during his absence, to the post
Office in your city, to be placed with his
private papers. If he has not brought
the subject of his subscription to the L.
S. Telegraph before the Council of
State" | presume it was because he con-
sidered it a subject on which he was not
required to ask their advice; or, it may
be, that he intends hereafter to do so.-
1t will be in time for you, as one of his
advisers, to refuse your consent when it
is asked. Yours, sc.

THUNDER SroRM.-We were visited
by very severe thunder storm on Tues
day morning last which lasted for sever
al hours. The house of Mr. Wm Cal
lahan on the Hill, in this town, was struck
by lightning,-the electric fluid entered
near the chimney and passed down into
a room on the first floor, and it is suppos-
ed escaped at a window which was open,
doing no other damage than merely to
crack the plasterng over the fire place.
The storm was equally severe at New
Bedford. A ship lying in the stream,
ready for sea was struck, and her main
mast injured so much as to require new
one before she could proceed on her voy-
age.

ANOTHER CnAPTER.-By the south
ern mail otthis morning, we have received
the annexed correspondence, forming a
mother chapter in the history of the Grand
Controversy.-The principal fact here
tofore stated in the Telegraph, now prov
ed by the testimony of Mr. Bcrren, is,
that Col Johnson did call on Messrs
lngham, Branch and himself, from the
President, upon the great question,
whether the ladies' Of those gentlemen
should associate with the wife of the Sec
retary of War. The Telegraph stated
that Col. J. called upon the gentlemen
mentioned, by the direction of the Presi-
dent. Mr.. Berrien's phraseology is, ,"with
the appreciation Of the President" The
distinction does not amount to much
And yet Mr.. +. u. Blair, ofthe Tele-
graph, in the teeth Of the letter Of Mr.
Berrien, still says, che knew the report
was false"

which has relation to a controversy be-
tween the Editor of the Telegraph, and
yourself, | observe the following re-
marks
"At this point, we should have drop
ped the controversy, but we have under

ceivrd letter from Col Johnson, which
shews that we had no warrant for the
denial, we made as to him. We take
the liberty, therefore, ofquoting from the
letter of Col. Johnson, which we have,
his express declaration, that the Presi-

GENTLEMEN In looking over your paper of Sa-
turday lust perceive you have reported the debate
upon the Hcnrico Election. The few remarks which
made upon that subject, have been no doubt unin-
tcnonolly, but incorrectly reported. do not mean
to question the general accuracy with which the de-
bates OF the Virginia Assembly reported in your
paper-thot being matter upon which am no,
competent to speak, not having paid any attention
except IN my own case nor should have now troti-
pied you for any slight variation, any omission
however important--but ] cannot consent that ex-
prcssions shall be attributed to me, which did not
use was utterly indifferent to the publication OF
them at alt but certainly, if published feel an anx-
Iety that, feeble as they were in themselves, they
shall not be made 80 by incorrect report OF
them. feel bound, therefore, in Justice to my
SELF to request you TO give the following an early in.
serDon 10 your paper, as comprising the Substance
OF what did say, and, to the best Of my recolec-
uopj the language in which it WINS said.
