G54In the Easton Star of the 17lh inst.
we observe communication over the sig
nature of ''Dcmocrai,o to which the cdi-
tor Of that paper calls the attention of his
readers, and from which we make the fol-
lowing extract. The writer was attempt
ing 10 clear the Locos, who were in the
House at the time the eight million loan
was made from all, blame in the matter, and
in answer to those who say that they
might have proven ed the loan he argues
,hus.
Gas well might the strong man when
on his trial for beating Ii $ ncighhor, try to
defend himself by pleading that there was
a boy present, and because the boy did
not keep him from striking his ncighbor,
that therefore the Court must fine the boy
and let the runian go lrcc.--Do you think
the court would consider his plea good
one2n
What ninny! Why did he not carry
the comparison little farther, and sup
pose the boy to join in, and with all his
might help to bang the man! 1t would
then, have been nearer true o.e. He
states that there were 25 Locos and 40
Wings in the House and that 81 of the
! wings voted for the bill. That would
leave % wings against it, aud if the IS
Locos had voted with these, there would
have been AZ against the bill and only 81
i for it, consequently it would have been
<dcGcatcd by a very large majority. II is
known that any wing measure is opposed
I. by the Locos, ca mdsse; but Is out of the
25, voted for this bill, being more Locos
in proportion to their numbers, than
! Wings, who went for it, and consequently
n it is rather Loco than a wing measure.
"Dcmocrat," alias ninny, says he shall
be heard from again; we shall look out
for the blast
