Sir-Your letter Of the Odd ut. was
duly received Ii contains no sentiment
to which |, or pure republican, or a
stern patriot can object; but it efiectual-
ly fixes upon Major Lewis, character
which common fame had always pointed
for him, and which my own experience
confirms; it will brand him with the odi-
Gus and degrading trait Of systematic men
ddcity.
The occasion Of my addressing you
was this; Major Lewis, in conversation
with the proprietor, Mr. Harding-and
Mr.. Morris, the writer Of the Pennsyird-
MA Inquirer, had affirmed That Mr.. Rich
ie had been consulted, and he declared
that if Mr.. Simpson were rc-nomnatcd,
IL rould deprive Trginia from The support
of General Jockson In what manner you
were empowered to speak on behalf Of
the state Of Virginia, he did not explain,
nor how the case of an individual, added
to the large list of editorial appointments,
could either infect or restore any suppos.
ed principle involved in the act.
You have completely exposed this
gross, wanton, and dastardly falsehood,
