MR. EDIreR: EperceiEe by your paper of the
18th instant, that my communication in reply to
tConventionst has been replied to,or ratheran at
tempt has been made to reply to it. The "Voter OF
Warren" has msconstrued me in some instances, and
In one IN particular he has been pleased to hint at my
Democracy. Oh Jupiter how great hand he IS at
guessing. Wonderif he had on pine burr spectacles
when he made Understanding discovery, particularly
as it has been found out before, that is if we
are to judge from ones votes and actions The gen.
tleman insnuates that am wing, simply because
opposed to the reelection of Gen. Daniel. Now,
let us argue little, and see if my not as
good as the" Warren champion.
One of the reasons gave for not voting for Gen.
Daniel was, thought him too passionate, and gave
as an instance his fight with Mr.. Toole; and s'War

OF chlvalry originated. +" reply thatI not of the
gassy South Carolina school of chivaIry. The mere
calling of person liar does not make him one
and how much better it would have been for Gen.
Daniel to have taken notice of such gross conduct.
and passed 1t by with contempt. hold that if per-
son does not strike me say anything derogatory to
my character, that / am not bound to notice every
heated word, but only those that appear to be pre-
medlated-the same it is in law that every word,
even though 1t may be that which if true would sub
Ject man to some infamous punishment, if spoken
whilst quarreling or what's equivalent would not be
objectionable But should any one attack my person
or my reputation, why he would find me pushing the
matter ' to the death even,' as old Bullion expressed
1t once in one of his selfglorifcation speeches.
when alluded to the ''scratching'' only intend
ed TO convey the idea tatGen D. was too passionate
for the angry time that will be exhibited at the next
session of Congress, unless send men from both
sides of the Potomac who are cool, dispassionate,
and who possess sound judgment.
Again. IS Warren - seems to think that not only

small potatoes when compared to him.
L thought the Southern Address premature, and
the floors of the Chambers the proper place for Rep
resentatives and Senators to discuss the slavery

dare to vote finally that slavery shall not exist South

ritorles, bought by the blood and of both
parties, as they undoubtedly are, why that then
Southern members would have right to enter their
protest upon the journals of both Houses, and
home to their constituents, if it should be deemed
necessary.

old adage may not be applicable to him.

The contributor informs that Gen. Daniel was

Thank you sir-I feel very grateful, but had heard
something of that before-anythng else in the way
