and the Great " eSlerr carries with her to-
Iav. rcmittances To cover the residue. In
deed all The payments Of The Srate prior to

To P. S. BRooKs. Esq.
Sir, Without expressing any opinion,
as to The true construction Of that part OF
Col. Wisfall's publication in the Edsefie!.!
Advertiser OF the 22nd instant, in which
YOU slate. that g il seems to be his wish
10 create The impression upon The public,
that the adjustment suggested by you, a.d
acceded to by his friend, Capt. Gregg, WAS
based on something different from an ac-
quillal OF the charge Of IalSchood," we give
briefly our views Of The adjustment made
by us, on The 29Ih July last, at Limestone
Springs.
We, accidentally present at the time desig
mated al the Limestone Springs, were in.
duced 10 offer our mediation, to prevent he
hostile meeting understood to be arranged
for, between Col. Wigfall and yourself.
The consent Of all parties being obtained.
we proceeded to inquire into the facts.
From sources, and BY means which the
opposing parties could moi resort to, by in
1uiries which the parties could moi make,
we ascerlained 10 our entire satisfaction, ii
stale of facts which we detailed in The pa
per which is published in the Ed.eied
Advertiser of the 22d inst, entitled " ad-
jusiment of ar affair of honor, between
Mr.. p. S. Brooks and Col. l.. L. Wiefall, :"
dated "Limeslone Springs, July 90, 1870"
Inihat statement, we stated distinctly, that
the charge made by Col. Wigiail, against
Mr.. Brooks. Of having stated whGt was
false 10 Mr.. Glover, was made under to-
tai nisapprehension Of facts-under mis- :
take. That Of course, such a charge was
not applicable, and therefore. Of necessity
left no imputation Of falseIiood OIL the
character of Mr.. Brooks. This statement
was acceded TO by both sides, and was
thereby tho act of the parties, as well as
our own.
In this adjustment, we disregar,lcd all
those forms which would cmbarrass the
parties themselves, and sought for. and
obtained The truth in a way they could MOI. .
In the same way, we sought substance
rather than form, in settling the difficulty.
Under the most solemn conviction of its
ruth, and our responsibilities, we said in
the adjustment, that 1--WE are fully and Sc
riously Of opinion, that there is not any
thing in the quarrel between Col. Wig
fall aud Mr.. Brooks, which may not be
accommodated with honor to both parties.
and should. certainly. not recommend any
other sort Of accommodation. If there is
any circumstance, phrase, or expression
in what we have said, which could give
any one different impression, The fault
