which was addressed 10 Mr.. Downs through the self

Of Benyle, Louisiana They all declare that, In sup
porting the Compromise BILL he has fully sustained the
opinions OF the peoples and they rejoice at his having
given these volunteer critics the scathing casdga6on
which they deserve The "Bulletn" declares TINT Mr.
Downs will receive the appreciation Of nneeenrtwen-
ehs or even ninety hundredhs OF his constitu
