WAsHNcroS, October 25th, ls43


To the Editor Of the .Nadisonian
My attention has just been called to an article
from the pen Of the Washington correspondent Of
the N. Y. Express, dated October 18th, l843, signed
B. E. and which appeared in that paper Of the 18th
instant, to which beg leave TO offer brief reply
to that part alone, however, which more Immediately
concerns myself. Who that correspondent is know
not, nor do care to know.
Whatever may be my own opinion or the opinions
of such Of the citizens of Washington, who are ac-
quainted with the circumstances relative to my
appointment to Office, must beg leave to state, that
such conversation is described by the cores
pondent Of the Express between Mr.. Spencer and
myself ever took place. MIR. 8. never in his life
mentioned Dowden's name to me, nor did he ever
audc to him. his trial. any thing else relative to-
or connected with him. As for Mr.. Dowden, he is a
perfect stranger to me, never spoke to him in my
life nor have the slightest recollection Of having
ever seen him, until saw him in the Court House,
awaiting his trial.
hope the editors Of the Express. will sec the pro
priety Of giving this insertion in their paper in
order that things may stand in their proper light.
