and operates as direct censure on the Hon.
II. II. Sbley and Joseph Sire, esq, for the
part they took in the late unfortunate mis-
understanding between those gentlemen.
As one whose name figures at the head of
tina! list, and wishing that 40 improper mo-
tive should be laid AT my door, hope you
will give this communications place in your
columns. ! wish to say to my friends and
The public generally, plainly and explicitly,
GAS far as my name goes to sanction such
mpressions,) that they are erroneous and
unfounded. No man, Mr.. Editor, stands
higher in my esteem than the Hon, II. II.

honorable gentlemen, incapable of acting
otherwise than from the purest motives.
The members Of the firm of Messrs. P.
Choteau. jr. & Co., are too well known to
need any thing from me. I respect them
all too much to allow Impressions to go

their reputation with the sanction of my
name. My object, sir, in placing my name
on that list, was simply to express to gem
tleman, with whom ! have been several
years acquainted, and whose connection in
business has always been Of The most re-
spectacle standing, my warnest and bes,
wishes for bis future prosperity. look
upon the late misunderstanding between
those gentlemen as calamity to the terri
tory.
