The Hon. Dutee J. Pearce, member
of Congress, from II. Island, having in n
speech reported and corrected by him
self, asserted, "that ifhe understands lam
guage, the writings of the Boston Rebel
openly adrocaied disunion," and further
stated that l was the writer of those pie
ces, and Of course, that openly advo-
Gated disunion. Now, Mr.. Editor, as
sert, that not passage, paragraph, line
or word Of that series Of writings, signed
Ga Boston Rebel" either openly or co.,
ertiy advocated disu,lion, or affords the
least color for such malcvolent asser-
ton; and as the Hon. Gentleman pro-
fcsses to havo read those pieces; he may
reconcile this contradiction with his love
of truth, as well as he can. The said
Hon. Member having, in the same
speech, declared that my venerable and
lamonted friend, Col Pickering, "show-
ed to the Hon. Mr.. Potter, Of II. l.. n
letter from me, in which stated that tho
Hartford Convention, (then about TO as
sorSblo,) would adopt no half way mea-
surcs, but would proceed to separation
of the States, if an end was not put to
the war"-l now solemnly declare and
am ready to make oath, that l never
wrote any letter to Col. Pickering, or to
any other person, expressing such views
of the purposes and designs of the MEM
bers of the Hartford Convention, by
which, ! mean, that l never used any
words, which could by possibility convey
to any mind, such impressions-and that
the charge Of my having SO represented
to my friend, is wholly, and radically ux-
founded. JOHN LOWELL.

LETTER FROM MIR. OTIS.


In our PAPER Of the 2lst ult. we men.
toned our having received from the Hon
Mr.. Lowell, Of Mass some remarks up
on Dutee J. Pearce's second libel, pub
lished in the II. l. Republican ofthc 18th
uh., but as we presumed they we're writ
ten before Mr.. L. could have received
our paper Of tho 18th August, in which
that libel was refuted and exposed to the
entire conviction of every one, we took
the liberty to postpone the publication Of
Mr.. LIS remarks until we should furthe,
hear from him. We added "that it is
Mr.. LIS desire, we doubt not, to take nc
more notice Of Duteo Pcarcc than is ne
cessary for his own vindication." Since
we published the above, Mr.. Lowell has
appeared in the Boston Daily Advertiser,
under his own signature, in short and
causic notice Of Pcarce, which, so far
as matters Of fact are concerned, must DO
conclusive with the public as to the char
acter Of that libellcr. AS we insert MIR.
Lowell's note to the Daily Advertiser,
in this duy's paper, we think it due also
to the Hon. III. G. Otis, who has been
equally sIandercd by p. that the follow
ing communication, some time since re-
ceived from him, and handed to US by
Mr.. Hazard, should accompany that
statement, as it exposes still more palpa-
bly, the pitiable ignorance and wanton
disregard Of TRUTH. which wo are sorry
for tho reputation Of Our State to say,
would fix upon Pearce the authorship Of
his article, even if he had never signed
it. But we will not dctain our readers
from the perusal Of the letter -
BosroN, August IS, 1884.
Honorable Is. Hasa,d,
Dear Sir-It appears that the Honor
able ID. j. Pearce in consequence Of my
late letter to you, and one from MIR. Low
ell to the Editor Of the Herald Of the
Times, has published a communication
intended as comment upon both, print
ed copy Of which he has sent 10 mo un-
der his own frank. This is evidently an
invitation to mo to enter the field Of con-
troversy with him in the newspapers. But
as have tho misfortune Of not knowing
that gentleman by sight nor even by re-
putation-as was ignorant, or at least
ofthe fact Of his being in Con-
gress until advised Of it by the report of
his speech enclosed in your former let
ter, | may be excused for saying that
whenever l may be inclined to renew a
public discussion Of the merits of the
Hartford Convention, or Of my own po-
|itical course, he is probably the very
last and least Of those whose gauntlet I'll
should feel myself bound to take up
After enjoying the homage paid to him
,y an editor Of his own party during Sc
,eral weeks, for q speech which he saws
10 did not make; upon an exposure of its
manifold absurdities, he comes out, and
nvokes his compugators, with q state
nent Of his genuine TRADE. / am una
le however to discern in this newly
amped production, with the exception
,hich l shall now notice. any thing
,bich requires an answer from me, or
ny thing but the lees Of old newspapers,
