Methought your brain, Quill, were fed by the pale blood of pallid heart, pulseless at the sound of a midnight knell, and that you sought my com panionship to abate your fear, even in the privacy of my wife's dormitory.

JUDGE TOLUSON.

We copy the following communication, because Judge ToILsoN desires it, and not because we deem il at all necessary to defend him, against the unseru puous and malignant islanders of Weller. The slime of Weller's praise is more to be deprecated, by an honorable man, than his vituperation:
 From he Helena Journal of Aug. Ist.
 TO THE PUBLIC.
 The vile scoundrel and disgrace tohumanitv that edits the Times and Advocate, that sewer of filth and vehicle of inlamy, has assailed me in his paper of the 22nd utimo, and charges upon me that am guilty of perjury and .tor- gery, all of which pronounce to be Q BASE, FALSE and INFAMOUS LIE, and will so prove it. He says that applied for discount to the Bank at Helena upon promissory note, making oath that l was authorized to sign my mother-in-law's name to 1t. This is an infamous lie 1 never did any such thing, as l will prove by reference to the Cashier of the Bank.
 He says that did sign her name to it, and then drew upon the note certain sum of money. Here agsin he told an ia5amoas and malignant lie. 1 never signed her name to any note or to anything else in my life, and l will prove this charge to be lie also by reference to the Cashier, who will prove that the name of Margaret Millions, my mother in-law, never was signed to but two notes in the Bank, one of which was her own stock note and the other was as security for William Williams, both of which were signed by her own proper signature
 He says that my mother-in-law was sued upon that note at tho late term of the Phillips Circuit Court, and that I went into court and sseore that had mol been authorized to sign her name to 1t. Here you have told another most INFAMOUS LIE. Will the fellow never get done telling lies My mother-in- law was never sued upon any note in the Phillips circuit court signed by her either us princip pal or security in her individual name :; neither did | ever make oath i'll court that l had mol been authorized to sign her name to it. could not have made such an oath in court when there was no such suit pending against her.
