This extract is like its pedecessor-false in the whole
and in every line and letter Of its statements and nslnu
atoms against not only Mr. Dickinson, but against Mr..
Davis, OF Mississippi, of the most upright and high
toned in the public service; charging distinctly that
he was corruptly induced by improper consid-
Grafton, to suppress resolution asking Tor inferma'
ton for public use. Now, the true answer TO this
dastardly charge which none blu, profgate politician,
who was stepped to the lips in corruption, would have
made, is that Mr. Davis, of Mississippi offered any
resolution upon the subject any time under any CIR
cumstances and that the whole statement, to him, is
an out and out fabrication He is thus basely assaulted
doubtless because he is southern who speaks OF
aboitonsm he thinks. and has spoken approvngly of
Mr. Dckinson's public course
