Brown of Carrollton, and Newton and
Hinson Of Grenada had already done It,
and that we were in the process Of do
ing it again, and he had better get out Of
his carriage and restore himself TO good
standing among honorable and brave
men. But all and much more 10 no pur-
pose--he drove off, threatening as Nth
a Sait for libel, and we calling on the
people of Grenada to witness that there
went coward who had been five times
disgraced. After all This we gave him
pas an incorrigible poItroon, seeing
him followed by the Kisses and scorn of
the mass Of people assembled on the
square. And SO far as we are person
ally concerned, we leave him now to the
reputation he has SO we'll earned, Of be-
ing Pitiful, sneaking thing, which a
brave man will not shake hands with.
and which even towards may insult with
entire i,npunity.
Having thus given an abstract of
| facts with which we are more intimate
iy connected, and which if given in full
would more clearly establish his title TO
| the reputation of the lowest cowardce
and the most degrading meanness, we
proceed 10 state some few other Of the
many facts which are within our knowl
edge, and which show that besides being
candidate for his own vote for Con
gress, he is also a candidate for the Pen
itentiery, and would even disgrace tie
better class there.
Under the three principal heads of |
tar, cOpard and thief, perhaps almost
every thing may be embraced which
goes 10 make up the sum total ofthe pit
ilul villains character. We will show
what title he has tothe ethree'appeIlations
Lying. He stated that we would back
his charge on Mr.. Prentiss, which he
knew to be false, and whicn he knew we
had never asserted as true. He stated
during the above affray that he was
never our friend, and then admitted in
his letter to US that but for misunder-
standing, ''we should still have been
irlends!" He asserted while election
eerlng Tor the Legislature, in the fall of
] 839, that all the money he had, he
''made with these hands," holding up
both his overgrown paws-how true
this is will appear when we come TO the
charge of theft. He insnuated that he {
had used whip on US, which his best
friends, if any he has, besides the whole
people ofhis county know never Happen !
