MEssRs. EDIToRs:-l have seen with feelings
of pity aud scorn the publication Of private

Of the Treasury about one year ago. Although
there is nothing in the letter which either MIR,

cealed from the public eye, the meanness, COW
ardice and knavery of making public private
communication, addressed TO, and the property oi

Ell ohtalned serreptitouSIy or not, will forever
brand all the parties concerned in such publica

action by any circumstances Of aggravation, they
are found in the act that the letter, referred to- was

that it was stolen from me. But whether it was
or not no one had any right TO ii but myself. 1t
was known, by all who saw it, TO be my property,
and mine alone, and none but a knave and a
scoundrel would print or publish or peruse it in
manuscript il it came in his way, without my per
mission. ! therefore pronounce The man who stole
it, or obtained it ia any other manner, and fur
nished it for publication, and the mar who caused
tito be published, to be COWARD, KNAVE,
and aVlLLAlN.-6t only TO associate with thieves
aud bIackguurds.
or all the means resorted TO for eectioneering

Thus 5667 votes may fairly be deducted from

that the administration majority in October 1886
was upwards Of 10000 and in the next month
Harrison was defeated by only 4.400. showing
that his own strength in Pennsylvania exceeds
that Of the Wing party at least IL 900 votes.
