old nesnerized drveller Of the Enquirer into VIM
lent patriotic convulsons--the Sweat House is stT-
red to lis lowest deplh'-and double guard has
been mounted at the White House in Washington!
The most successful hoax even played off upon
human credulliy-nOt excepting even the Gun

The Alexandria Gazette says it has created uni
versal laugh. We will try to mike room to NOR
row for some Of Riches startling appeals Poor

has been humbuggins others, now there is no trick,

siicalon of the ancient sayings Old birds are not

Upon this the Boston Courier, a prominent

ly:
"Is this a denial Of the plot' Or is tia mere
trick To lead The public to infer that the letter Of
J. II. Pleasants WIS nothing more than harmless

authentic statement OLA plot to carry oil the presi-
dent Of tho United States, solely with view to

Richie, and the Wing published it to be hoax,
no degree Of contempt can be too heavy to lay up
on the heads Of such shameless blnckguards. But
Mr. Pleasants has not yet pronounced the letter II
fiction, or gwen any inlimalion that The plot was
not genuine pot. The paragraph, quoted above,
fiom the Wig, does not pnnonnce the letter II
hour. If VIZ Peasan,s.and the editor Of the Wing,
have any regard for truth honor, or decenry they
