he has furnished US.
1t will be seen that Brown has mutila-
ted and garbIed hitchell's letter, for the
purpose of making it ridiculous, for he
sneers at and rldicules ITS style and COM
position in his reply. We have in our
possession, also, the letter received by
Mitchell from Brown, which differs ma
terally from the one published by the
! latter.
! Ii Mr.. Brown can reconcile such mean
ness as the mulllation of this correspon-
dence with any principle Of honor his
code must differ materially from that of
the rest OF the world
Here is Mitchells letter as published IN
The Tribune:

Now what can any honorable man
think Of David Paul Brown Esq who has
thus mutiateda correspondence which he
processes to give truly to the public.
Mr.. Browns letter takes it for granted
tina, Mitchell! kidnapped the woman.
We are assured that she was brought to
the Elkton Jail without his knowledge
and that he was at home at his farm at
the time.
