SIR; avail myself OF your lberaity TO answer Mr..
John r. Norris's card Of this morning. which is as
devoid OF fairness as it is OF good taste and democratic
feeling. Hn n'
pabe careessness declares that wish shift my bur-
dens upon his shoulders stgmases my conduct rash
and unauthorized and reterates that had been fore
warned OF the failure that awaited my movements.
In all this Mr.. Norris has had little to do with the
facts of the he possibly could; relying, would
seem, upon special pleading and sophstry. and making
up IN bold assertions what was wanting In fact and
sound argument. 1.l ~.
When shift my burdens shall take care to put them
upon shoulders broad enough to hold and strong enough
to bear them But as vet have no such desire shrink
from no burden and avoid responsibility What did,
was done openly and aboveboard and if Mr. Norris feels
himself aggrieved by it, Jet hmappcal to the association

Weakness and relieve him Of the oppressive load he
carries in the name of democracy.

Mr. Sengstack, one of the committee in ill health and
under great aiiction, not called upon by the major
ity to unite with them in the notice, or he undoubtedly
would have signed it. Mr.. Norris and Mr. Hilton were,
therefore, the only members Of the committee out of
en- who objected to the meeting-he former, account
Of the profanity Of torch light procession; and the latter,
on account of the want of action on the part OF the Dem
ocratic Association. After Mr. Norriss declaration
the conduct of the committee calling the meeting, did
not consider his objection OF much consequence And
after the Association, the Tuesday evening preceding
the meeting, had decided by unanimous vote to attend
the meeting headed by their president did not
deem Mr. Hilton's objections to be valid
Upon receiving the application OF the executive com
mittee the president OF the Association issued the follow
ing notice, which appeared in the Union OF the 7h inst
and the lntelgencer OF the 10th, though sent on the
7th Instant
Mass MEETING--The members of the Democratic Asso-
at the seat of the national citizens OF

torch-light procession will be formed half past
o'clock and proceed through the principal Of the
fhe citizens Of Washington requested to illuminate
their houses for two hours after dark the night of the
H. s DAVIS President.
When the chairman OF the executive committee was
on his way to the printing office to have this notice in
serted in the Union, he accompanied part OF the way
by Mr. Norris, who threatened, if the notice pub
shed, to denounce the same under his name in the
same paper and also avowed his determination to put
the meeting down. This, however, Mr. N. did not do
but the next morning. having written call for city
meeting and obtained twenty eight signatures twhig and
democratic) to it, he published the same in the lnte
gencer and Union of the Sth, as follows:

Another evidence of the worthessness of the Indiana
Journals professions be found in the fact that has
thrown General Taylor ouerboard, political Jonah
Our whg readers will hardly be able believe this after
all that the Journal has said his favor for year past
but they will find the proof in the Journal of the I4th in
slant Not only is Taylor thus summarily disposed Of
but the go by also given to Mr.. Clay whose claims
and chances for the wing nomination are not deemed
worthy of single word Such vacilation and weak
ness well such reachery this, shows as plainly
the most open confession could do how desperate the
Journal considers the chances OF whggery at this time
The Journal expresses itself in favor Of the nomina
ton of Judge Mclean the ground that he is better
whig than Mr.. Taylor! Who would have thought tina:
the Journal could have been brought to confess that
regard TO wing principles" now orbds the nomination Of
Taylor How many times within year past has it been
offended at for saying that Taylors politics were un
defined But week or two ago, even, the Journal
could not bear to hear the conduct or principles OF its
favorte questioned in any particular It seemed
slider him Immaculate and without guile. OF all others,
ne was the man for the whgs not only because he
himself whig but, sngulary enough also because he
was an honest man, and had the boldness to tell the truth
about the Indiana volunteers! But what will the Gen
eal say when he hears about the sudden retreat of the
Indiana Journal, Will he think the fugitive" knave
and coward will he still have little generous con-
dence in iii In opinion he will swear that it IS
cursed Mexican guerero, and will Immediately swallow
an ounce of mustard, and burn Defrees's letter.
