communication signed by you, and addressed TO
VIM 5. Vose, in which you attempt 10 traduce my
charactef, and lower me 10 the estimation OF the
public. Your foul and uhmanly attack does neither
credit TO your head your heart and as II regards
what you have said Of me. pronounce II a false
and aggravated statement. MIR VOse Is capable Of
defending himself; I shall therefore fight my own
battle, and he must do the same. For lack Of ar
gument you have INDUCED IN bitter inyeclivc. and
instead Of keeping truth and moderation on your
side your distorted statement OF our establishments
breathes nought but venom. II seems ss though
you had ransaeked The whole vocabulary OF Walk
rr and Webster to find rpthets vile enough To be-
tow upon US and the stories you have told are e.
nough TO put Baron ManchsuSen TO the blush. and
make Gnlliyer hang down his head for very shame.
Il seems as though the milk Of human kindness. II
YOU ever possessed any, Is entirely absorbed by
misanthfopic feelings and will add. that. when
| see men preaching up morality with so much
zeal, II reminds me OF the fable OF the wolf who
dressed himself in sleeps clothing in order that he
might easier secure his prey. ] am well aware

and. also. that he never anticipated harm from me
and would not sign your petition. You have held
me up ss dangerous character, from which we
may infer that yon mean robber, or an incendia
