Commercial Advertiser, which speaks by The
ihoiiy of gentleman ,oenizhnt to the matter, lh4i
the leuef purpo,iiug 10 have been written al Cin-

whole srheue was concoeted by few Van Bu,en
men ia Oswepo among whom some office ho Id
ers and the AssoriatInn. winch - composed Of the
lowest, most disrrputabIe men IN that region, was
selected as fit for tatryiue the infamous

! The gentleman Who gives US this Information,
! knows all the parties, aud 10 any person disguised
! 10 doub his statement, he auILorzes to Offer n
bet Of one hundred doiars aud will take upon HIM
/ , ell the burden OF proof.
Tue character OF this dsrepulable proceeding,
! intended TO assall Gen. Harrison, needs no cont
meni from us; but it IL worthy 81 remark. that II
Gen Harrison had 10 tact TUNED tbs correspon-
dence over 10 . committee OF his friends, he would
only have been following AN example set by Gen.
Jact som who's rie Dis have been ralsn. all this dis
reputable hue and cry.
Ill is aeain worthy OF remark, that the more Gen
Harrison rs RUBBED, the Brighter he shines. Every
attack trcoiis upon his enemies. Thr assault p.adc
u pom his military services. is fallyiug for hun, Il
masse, the old soldiers oil the lndiaD and the last
wars"
