AN INFAMOUS FALSEuoOD.

The American Of yesterday contains one
Of the mos, strocous ialsehoods against Mr'
Skunk that could POSSIBLY be invented --
The conductor of that paper Is wen Nno" o.
as one of the most brual ana RECKLESS oIahu
erers that ever disgfaced the Press but vile
as he is known 10 be, no person could IN
aoire that he would dare TO publish suct
an airoclous falsehooI as appeared IN his
paper of Yesterday. The substance of the
article is, that al the laying Of ihe corner
stone of the German Catholic Church in
the fifth ward Mr.. Skunk had the American
Flag spread ou, for the prizes, to walk ovet,
in order that, by thus suffering the flag Of
his country to be trampled on, he might
gain the votes of those present. The mo
live attributed TO Mr.. Skunk is 100 ridicu
ousIy false TO require any relu,atlon, ,and
the whole statement touching the flag is
totally destitute of truth. No such occur
renee took place on the occasion referred
10, as can be testified to by hundreds who
were present during the ceremony: and II
the editor had desired to be correctly i-
formed on the matter, he might have made
enquiry Of some OF the members OF his own
party who were present, and who, know
must have felt an interest in the procee'
dlngs.
II Mr.. Skunk was there il was as a
soec,a,o, onlv, and if the whig party intend
to hold all responsible whose curiosity i'm
pelled them to witness the ceremony many
of our most respectable citizens of all de
nominations and of every party, will be
