THE STOLEN LETTER How a certain CON

houn got into the hands of General Jackson with
oul the consent or knowl dZe of Mr. Calhoun is still
mystery The Washington Telegraph of Thurs
day thus closes reply to the New York Standard,
on the subject
As we have said it has been seen that names
IN this matter are substantial tbngs ard it may be
that the names of the member Cf Congress, and Of
the person who assumed 10 be Dir Calhoun's friend
would cast much lgbt upon this subject and enable
the public 10 determine how far their agency pocs
to prove or dlsprovc plot. 1t is argued that, be-
cause they T'rOfessed 10 act with Mr. Cohoun's con
sent therefore there no plot. IF this argument
be good. The fact that they acted without Mr. Cal
hsuns knowledge and against his consent, is con
elusive proof that there plot. And we ask
the Editor Of the Standard what he will say if il
snail appear that the letter was purioned and that
