Much has been said, much has been talked

saw nothing al present 10 illustrate The subject,
although the only thing ! may say in relation 10
Inc reflections and suggestions, that they are III
destitute Of common sense and have not The least
foundation OF reality.
| should have never though! that my con-
fdcnilal md req pr,ra,e letter 10 Senior Relon

posed lral il would have been published, should
have expected il 10 nave teen published entirely;
NV intentions have been always sound, anu

Tie conduct Of the Government oil Inc uhisea
States, though me, is worthy OF men oil hon1i'

There is no meanness, nor reachery, nor base
ness nor iniouily. There is nothing in resu'a',
that may be ccnsured in The least rs lack OF no.
