In to-day's Telegraph F perceiI. ass5 \ editor has condescended to nof;.' ,s article of "Brutus." I but @ Enis
 ted a broadside from such '',' ssl
 if l had once thought that the pd;,a, ,G,' so idly spend his time as in rea1ias.. @ mentlng upon such literary trifa ''Brutus7 article, l might have bes.
 to weigh we'll every thouabtco cont,i,l, t,5 article, before placed it upon ',,' n,a.
 editorial article, although copipa npFs <. Ncstor4of the Arkansas press. k 6.% and hardly deserving of a passi1s ars Y But, as presume, at the time of his article, he anticipated d reply. let him be disappointed in that M ye.,..
 In the commencement of his aT editor says the denunciation of bnrt is itself humbuggery. Now if ,5e eIation of deception and fraud is ea evidence that the denoIncer himself and corrupt, l must confess tbat I, quite as wise as the editor of tbe Ts that to me 1t is a new. maxim in etFi, that logically, 1t is fact which Ib,g now never seen or heard of. Tols humbaggery proves very elearlya
 denouncer himself is a humbuacer ing to the same rule, to denouncs would prove the denouneer 10 be 36 regard this as a new principleinl loea never entered the cogitations of s9d minds as that of Aristotle and the
 clans; but has ill now remained 10 sed and ushered upon the literary a such colossal genius as that sohap sessed by the editor of the Washngs graph, and of course he should ns due credit and praise for this new add ! the rules ot logic.
 The editor says that the few wod lus" said in commendation of Judgel were all humbdggery, or in other Wo5 the Judge himself Is hunbug. ii renee to be drawn from this assefdoal talent, moral worth, and an irepa character are, according to the com views of the editor, all humbuggery humbuggery must have meaning d to It which 1t has not yet been my h| 10 learn. But Judge Johnson is knT over the Slate, and every one can !a contradiction te the editors assel8H he is a humbug.
 The editor makes some very lanea for his dereIiction of duty in not n the speeches of Hr. Pike and NIT. Cs one place he offers as an excuse for terring 10 Mir. Pike's speech, that nal pected he should be enthusiastic ini isF Now this is a candid confession thaI not pleased with the speech, and hat could not consistently speak well concluded to let it pass unnotccd right, Mr. Telegraph, never say ons when you believe another; and as neid nor tie Wings liked Sabinus' speot were perfectly right in not praisiagi not blame you for not praiSiag the only wished to know why you dldi lice 1t and express your opinion aboa state in what manner Ii was received meeting. But the editor makes stllll excuse for not noticing the speech Pike, on the ground that the weath' cold and disagreeable, and the ai' thin.o Quite satisfactory, indeed-n 1t may be. Now, l would ask, what weather and the attendance to do V speech2 Is itnot quite reasonable 10 that Mir. Pike, on that night, would the same speech he had in his mindl previous, without considering Whel the moon was shining or 1t was ran whether there were twenty or thou attendance? His excuse for not nohi speech of MT. Clay is still more Ian that for not noticing Sabinus. Butil wants to know what importance is to his silence with regard to the spec will give this as my answer to the interrogatory: as all the rest of the ] delivered before the club, which vel by the editor and the wings, were and some of them praised, by the le and as the two speeches spoken ol W ther noticed nor praised, although inl ings were referred 10 and their proc published, his silence "proyes very that the doctrines of Sabinus weren nol yed ol, nor the harrangue of Mr. cay by the editor and the Whigs-wlta wish to prove, and lad the editor Os'I ,.l enough 10 say that the reason he d@a @ tice the speeches, was because ns ~ like them, should not second up referred to him nor them. :
 am heartily tired of this kind q ling, and therefore will dismiss N.Y. Mir. Pike, and Mir. Clay. But before ! leave thls part ot the suoJec', press my regret at an error ol tne r, r, that part of the first article oi "DIaa u ferring to Dr. Walker.
