There are some points in the above, to which would
wish call public attention Mr. Haett says that there
has been meeting Of the committee" Of course
there has a. a committee but Is Mr. Hallett pre-
pared that there not meeting OF some Of the
prominent members Of that committee in New York. in
relation to Housons chances for Presidency say
positively that and the only why Mr.
Haett not invited to be present was that some OF
the national members objected TO him on the grouud
Of his beir coalition with the free soil faction of the
democratic party. Perhaps Mr. Haleit does not know
that strong efforts being made to have him removed
nom his present POSITION as chairman, ON that very
ground.
Az regards the vacancies not being filed does Mr. Hal
lett to that he did not by letter ask Greers
consent to place his upon the list, u member
Of that committee to which he Greer) sent an answer
eptipg the appointment! These appointments are
not made Mr. Haett states, by the ofcial action OF
the committee. They made by the various state
committees the delegation from each State 10 Balti

these gentlemen received their credentials to act
such which obyated the necessity Of any action on the
part of the executive committee.

1t thus appears, according to Mr. hal!etts letter,
that neither Mr. Greer nor Mr.. Don lldson mem
ber Of the Democratic National Committee. Bat
what will Mr. Donaldson or Mr.. Greer say to thisl
And how can they get over the difficulty! We take
no Interest in the controversy which has grown out
of the publication of the letters in question. They
were sent to us for publication, and we published
them matters Of public interest. As to the lis
putes which they have occasioned, the gentlemen
interested most, must dispose Of them in their own
way.
We cbeerfully insert the following note as an act
