AN INDIGNANT M. d. IN New YonK.
Our readers will remember the rich
specimen of reports from Physicians in
New York, which was published short
time since. Their publication has
aroused the ire of one of the medical
fraternity, who supposed that the CITY

that functionary the following letter:

We regret this result. Ii is dishon.
orable TO the Wings oflhe State. They

only for men who will sustain his ad.
ministra,ion. Too many Of them have
suffered themselves to be gulled into the
support of the Locofoco candi dates,
because these candidates made ex,rava.
CANT professions of exclusive devotion
TO the peculiar institutions of the South.
II is too late TO recall what has been
done, but hundreds of Wings, who per.
mitted themselves 10 be carried astray
will doubtless find plenty of time within
the next two years TO indulge the feel.

| DID. AND | DIDN'T,

Granny Napton has placed himself in q
beautiful pickle, and one that must throw
discredit upon every assertion he has made
OF may hereafter make in relation TO any pc.
ltical question Whatever.
1t will be remembered by those who read
Col. Benton's speech delivered at this place,
tina, he charged Judge Napton with having
written the notification disunion high ,rea
son resolutions of the las, Legislature, and
from which he Col. b. appealed. because
they did not emenate from any expressed
will Of the people.
Judge Nap;on has written communica
ton which appeared in the last Fayet.e
Democrat. denying the authorship Of said
resolutions, dated the 18th Of July; a manu>
script OF which was sent to this place for
publication OF the same date. This manu>
script was placed in our possession on Sat
urday morning, the sssh ult., and we were
very particular to exsmine the manuscript
on the poin, Of these resolutions, because
we knew him to be the author OF them by
undoubted testimony. We were pleased to
find on examination Of the manuscript that
the Judge had acknowledged 10 the author
ship, and thought his candid statement would
mitigate 10 some degree, the IMPROPERLY he
had been guilty OF by having any thing TO
do with the Legislature last winter. But
our good opinion OF the Judges candor was
destined to be Of short duration. On Mon.
day, the Both ult., we were informed by q
gentleman, that letter had been received
from Judge Napton. requesting tina. part to
be changed so as TO say that the charge
made 10y Col. Benton that he was the au>
thor Of said resolu,ion.) as being false. We
must confess that we were deeply panied u,
this conduct on the part Of the honorable
Judge. We could have wished that The &C
cusiDg angel, nigh. have b!ushed in heaven
when he announced the dissraceful act. and
that the recording angel had dropped tear
and blotted out the record forever. All OF
this we could have wished and more besides;
but our duty to the holy cause Of truth, and
10 the proud name OF our beloved State, de.
manded that the evidence in our possession
in relation TO the source OF these nullifca
ton resolutions should go forth to the public,
in order that sovereign and virluous PEG
pie. TO whom Col Benton has appealed,
might know the true character OF one OF the
plotters in this unholy crusade against the
Purest patriot and greatest statesman OF
which America can boast.
We now re utter the charge made by Col.
Benton in his speech at this place, tina, Judge
w. B. Napton, of the Supreme Cour, of
the State Of Missouri, is the author OF The
resolutions OF the last Legislature OF this
State on the subject Of slavery, and from
which Col. Benton appeals, his letter as
PUBLISHED in this weeks paper and in the
faye'se Democra! to the contrary notwih>
standing We make this charge by virtue Of
manuscript. left at this office. which was
subsequently, altered by gentleman Of this
city, by authority from Judge Nspton.
