Correspondence Of Butler, Hoyt Co. appeal Tor
their clients on difcren, and contradictory grounds
One says that there letter ia the Book that The
writer need care for-that even Ben. Butler comes
out unframed like the Hebrews from the hery
furnace II, takes the NeTs-the special organ Of
the Columbia County juntoto go il quite 40 strong
as this The Post thinks the uncovered caballcrs
need no dcicnceif they did. they perfectly able
TO make it. and since they keep silence, the pre-
sumption is thar they are but smiling in placid in
nocence at the bubbub around them The Herald
chsrac,erisiicay maintains that all politicians are
rogucs er obero and that, il the private correspon-
pence OF leading Wings were published, il would
make - bad show as that Of Messrs Butler, Allen,
Phelps J. Van Buren, &c. does
We care no, 10 contradict this assertion since il
will find crcdencc or not according TO the moral
state Of the listener. An upright man OF any CON
adorable experience knows that there honest
men and rogacs in the world a rogue divides man
Hind into detected and undetectcd knaves az we
zee Bennett do ia this instance. Doubtless there
have been Wings as proaigate as the Democrats
unmasked BY Mackenzie but we do no, believe they
ever were Governors, Judges, District Auor-
neys Attorney Generals, &c. We claim no monop-
oily Of honesty for our or any party, but we think
sucb letters are not usual among men whom GEORGE
WAWisoTos, JONI JAY, or JoHs a. ADAMS
would have selected for the most responsible posts
in the gift of the Executive.
Blu, the real value of these disclosures to the
public IL no, at all affected by the readers guess
as to the relative morality Of Wing and Loco.Foco
politicians Believe with Bennett II you can and
will. and you mus, the more heartily agree with
US that change in the mode Of filling important
Offices is essential All through the Book you
will lie struck with abundant evidence that personal.

The following letter from one Of the master

this State Is already familiar TO more intelligent
