GENrIrmEn, Your note Of yesterday,
has been received.
In Mr.. Smiths last note to you, you ere re-
ferred to us for the time, and other particulars.
in relation to the debate. When Mr.. Smith
notified us that he had referred you to US for
the time &C., we expected, ofcOurse, that you,
as the challenging party, would apply to US in
form; and we could not have viewed ourselves
as acting otherwise, than very oficiously, and
contrary to the course pursued by Mr.. Smith,
himself, if we had notified you without being
called on.
Ifyou have construed our silence into an IN
tention on the part ofMr.S. to shack out" you
have done him great injustice, and we connot
conceive that you wish to be understood that
uce intend to back out, having only by this let
ter for the first time, "backed'' in.

although unnecessary, shall be complied with
We are instructed by Mr.. Smith to say, that

belongs, win be in Elkton, Kentucky. Hi

let speech Of the celebrated DR.. Duncan, on
the New Jersey Election which we shall hang
up in the @Reading Room, for the exalnina-

times as many heads as tho HYDRA slain BY
Hercules; and as many tails as the whole, sup
posing that seventy belonged to each. But
the greatest wonder is that the Representative

however, that he spun it like spider does
