The writer professes to be whig--and he confras to Ahe JuH tke Jacs o6 fhe nunciGtioa but says in addition and this is what the knowing lokey chuckles at, that the remuneration was obtained (DO doubt by honorable means, by the man in whose employ'tas tanners, many of them were and that in hs op;nion, not half of them svi vote for Gen.
