uHdlTs, from llc ITONlucHCc JOuI-
nal -
Providence, July, 10 1852.
To The Editor Of Me JOurnai:
regret that feel Obliged 10 take any
notice OF the letter OF Col. Perry pub
llshcd in your paper of this day, but as
| consider his communication tissue Of
mis-statements, and having mixed me
pretty well up in them all | cannot al
low II to pass unuuticed, and must beg
the use OF your columns to give Il few
more facts in reference to this unpleas-
ant occurrence. Upon Col Pcrry's ar
rival here, | joined him Al Market
Square, and escorted him TO his quar-
ters in Pioneer Hall, and did not see
HIM nor speak 10 him ill | called with
the committee upon him Tor an eXplana-
ton, and this, be il remembered, was
subsequent 10 Col Pcrry's answer TO
the Chief Marshal, which the lat er
communicated Immediately to the Com
mlitce. Neither did make use of the
language which he has implied to me.
and how far he correctly quotes the IAN
guagc OF the Others whom he singles
out, tie letters accompanying my cons,
municaticn will show.
IL matters not To me whether he had
received any information aboU, the po-
sltlon assigned the band IN the process
sion, before the Chief Marshal waited
on him; he then knew it, and coming
with the feelings he admits he did, as to
occupying any position, performing any
duty, and lar as he could of meeting The
wishes OF HE military aud civil anihorl-
ties, he should have promptly acceded to
the request. particularly so, as he well
knew lhdt the location Of the band in the
procession by the Committee WAS the
condition Of his invitation, and for the
additional reason given by him, thlr,
when the three companies took their
places in l'nc the band dCcidcHtdHy il
iron, OF his company, he should have
been willing to correct the misttkc and
more than ever ready to respond to the
wishes Of the Committee.
Bull Will not tire your patience, or
that OF your readers. with any further
details. DO not think that Col. Porry
has made much advance in this matter
since his visit, but leave The public 10
Judge OF my actions, and here dismiss
the subject, not thinking it worthy Of
any further notice, though | have not
sand hat what could say in deienre Of
my course ON that OCCASION.

hopes of the speedy redemption of our State from
misrule and Locofocoism. Since the last Presiden
tial contest, Illinois has been settling rapidly by
men Of intelligence and discernment, and we ma
confidently expect revolution in the political
phase of things. In the southern portion of the
State--even in Egypt-the Wings are rallying
round the standard of Scott and Graham with an
energy and enthusiasm which are an earnest OF
their success, in conflicting with the benighted
powers Of that Egyptian darkness. In other por-
lions Of the State the contest with Jocofocoisn is
OF lees doubtful character. The State ticket is
received with Joy by all good Wings, who are
rallying to the support of their whole ticket with
confidence wholly unknown in past contests. Our
State CAN and WILL be carried for Scott,
