e. We are sorry to perceive by the

out in u full blaze Of wrath and iudig-
nation towards the Herald for the few
compliment words so kindly spoken in

ton of so much caloric.
Now rs we have no disposition to
change our ground relative to tho mat

the fabled adder carries its sting in its
tail, we may for the present be excused
for paying our attention solely TO this
extremity.

threats or remarks alluded to in the
lIerald-snd says that "tlat paper will
not be able to name an individual upon
whom this charge can be fixed" now
as we arc not aware Of the 'rulo by
which mans responsibility or respon.
