Hillsborough Recorder is Mr.. Graham's home Or
gan, and Mr.. Nash is his intimate and confidential
friend; Mr.. Graham lives in the town where this
paper is printed, and he is no doubt regularly in
formed of the substance and manner of Mr.. Nash's
attacks on Gen. PIERCE; he knows Gen. PIERCE
to be "Compromise" man and sound on the
question of Slavery and yet he encourages, by his
silence or by his appreciation, this Wing paper and
this Wing Eector in their unjust and dscreditable
assaults upon the distinguished opponent of his col

terly denounced by Mr.. Foss-s the leading Dem

nous by his attacks on Gen. Pierce, we beg leave
to be allowed most afectionatey to dedicate to him
the following letter. companion piece to the
New Boston SANDER Its authenticity is said to be
beyond question. 1t was addressed to the Trenton
Gazette genuine Scott paper. Mr.. Nash has a
sonorous voice, and can read it with much effect.
Here it is:

But seriously, Mr.. Nash speaks of the " Aboti-
tioist Hallet and leaves no means untried to pro-
duce the impression that Pierce, Hallett Burke Ath
erton, and all the Democrats of the free States are
unsound upon the Slavery question. Now, we I'M
dertake to say that all the gentlemen named
are sounder upon the Slavery question than either
Mr.. Nash, the Hillsborough Recorder, or the Ra-
leigh Register-they all advocated the annexation
of Texas, which extended Slavery, while these pa
pers and Mr. Nash opposed it; and Mr. Nash,
though Southern man, declared, as we are in
formed, in his contest for Congress with Mr.. Ven
able, that if compelled to choose between the
Union and Slavery he would adhere to the former
and give up the latter. Again, these papers and
Mr.. Nash acquiesce in the sacrifice of Fillmore and
Webster, and seek to profit by it, when the only
fault of those gentlemen, as Wings, was that they
had stood up for the Constitutional rights of the
South thousands of Northern Wings refuse thus
to acquiesce and play into the hands of Seward,
and they are, therefore, also sounder upon the
Slavery question than these papers or Mr.. Nash.
Foss and Fogg, Nash, the Register, and the
Hillsborough Recorder-what a combination
| We shall await with some anxiety the result OF
Mr.. Nash's reading of " me laughen's" letter. Mr.
Nash reads well, and we hope he will do the let
ter full justice. Read it right out, Mr.. Nash-give
it full tone and due emphasis.
