meeting Of his friends has be en- held at larry
town, and resolutions passed in favor of his gaIlan-
try, humanity, courage, and true pety. This is all
well and amable, but the meeting showed most
thorough contempt for the facts developed on the
trial, when they talked as if a mutiny had actually
taken place on board the Somers. But en- PEASANT,
many newspapers the other side are coming out
against Mckenzie, and calling upon his friends to
state the true vote of the Court Martial. Here is
one-the Albany Argus
