Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1852-07-30

The Herald of last Wednesday states that one of the
most respectable citizens of Wilmington addressed
letter to the Editor Of the Manchester IN. H. Dem
ocrat for the purpose Of the correctness
of the remarks imputed to General PIERCE, and of
course received an answer, affirming their correct
ness.
Now, might we venture to ask what other result
could have been expected, when application was
made to the sanderer himself the truth of the
SANDER promulgated Was it to be expected that
this bitter opponent of Gen. PIERCE-this lying wit
ness who had misrepresented him once. would not
do so again or, having entered into a career of
fraud and deception, would suddenly turn round.
and in letter to stranger, avow himself liar and
a scoundrel! The Editor of the Herald is certainly
too much of lawyer to place any dependence upon
such evidence as this. And would venture to
hint that perhaps better plan to obtain the truth
in such cases, would be to apply to disnteres
ted party, than to obtain relteratlon from the
party so deeply implicated, and call that proof!

statement that the author of articles in the Tarbo-

name and to state that when voting, he had at all
times voted the Wing ticket-that he considered
himself Wing, and none the less one, because as
a Southern-rights man he could not support Scott,
but would vote for Pierce and King. The Observer,
with its accustomed courtesy and candor omits all
except the name and the statement that he would
vote for Pierce and King and then talks about 1.-The
recklessness of the Journal! Has the Observer to-
tally and finally bid farewell to shame? 1t would
