seems that DR.. Carmichael, who is a religion, mar,
went away after this was satisfactorily adjusted. But

much for Duff Green.
The gentleman of the Wing IL not a whit behind his
comrade (whom he tells US is in Richmond) in making as
sertions contrary TO truth. They are indeed kindred ge-
muses.. Upon examining our article 10 which the WIG
refers as stating that the explanation was deemed ample,
we tnd that we not only assert the opinion that Green
must have substituted something else for the recantation
deemed ample by DIR. Carmichael, but we go further,
and thrice in the same article advance the idea to be-
found in the following remark which we quote from the

language adequate 10 express their detestation OF the man
who, by an arranged and %premeditated plot, assailed him
who has "fllcd the measure of his country's glory"-and
we can say with truth, that had this wanton and iastardIy
attack been made in the city or county OF PhiIadelpbia.
he would not have left the place with iIupunily, nor with.
out a richly merted chastisement.

tation, scorn, and hatred.

mittees in the city and county Of Philadelphia, to give to
His Excellency the President, when he shall arrive in our
city, such a reception as his never-to.be- forgotten military
services during the late war richly merits, and for the skill.
full and judicious manner In which he has conducted the
affairs OF government.
RESOLVED, That this meeting cannot deny themselves
the pleasure OF cobgratulaIing the President upon the hap
Ply selection he has made by appointing as one of his cabi.
net, our much esteemed, unassuming, and talented fellow
citizen, william J. Duane, a democrat dyed in tho wool,
and one OF his early and most efficient supporters.
