That is another d,s,ngcnucus, q"iSbl'ne M
sinua,ion. The Editor we'll knows that we nave
m xbe,c ,o,;,ns,cd that 10 bs the " asihov' OF
,veh a psmphIe, a. he describes, met our no.
tons Of high sense Of honor, or sceofoeo
with high standing in this community. Mr.
Fslkner is tho author" Of no such pamphlet !;
since 10 be the author of thing, requires that
one should originate il. 10 defending him.
therefore, we made no such intimation as
tina, Swallowed forth by the Democra'. But u
The Editor Of that print wished his readers 10
gather the impression that il does comporl with
our "ideas Of high sense Of honor" and that il
10 compatible with "high standing in Ripley" TO
be the author Of q pamphlet defaming worthy
and respectable citizens without provoca,ion,"
or that we had said any thing to that amount,
why did he not have the manly boldness 10 speak
it out in direct terms, instead Of entFenching
himself behind an inuendo? Does il, we beg
to know, comport with his notions of "high
sense Of honor" to insinuate thing, which he
well knew the case would not warrant him in
asserting! We have a higher opinion Of the
community at that place, than to inquire wheth-
er such thing 10 consistent with high standing
in Tuscumbia and we assure the Editor it is
not "in Ripley"
In reference to Mr.. Falkner, the Editor init
mates that M'Cannon found in individual "bas.
or reckless enough" to publish his " malignant
libels," and seems disposed to cavil at our ust
Of the phrase high sense Of honor" in connec
ton with The name of our townsman. Now, ",
tell that journals, that Mr.. r, claims to posses
as high sense Of honor, and would as nue.
scorn the commission Of a" tase' action, as b
himself or any other person.
