II Our meek Christian neighbor ofthe Wing
charges us with "base Misrepresentation" ," "bare-
faced attempt to practice deception" in refer
ence to the subject Of the public printing. We
are at loss to determine wherein was the mis-.
representation, unless it was in not stating that
a resolution had passed the House by 10 major
ity, directing its Clerk to inform Col. Medary
that he was not authorized to do any part of
the journal printing. Now, that is mighty
small point upon which to base such a charge,
but it is quit sufficient for our neighbor 70 make
display of his genius over. We did not pre-
tend to interpret the meaning of the resolution
Of the House authorizing its Clerk to contract
fer the necessary printing for that body; but we
did, and still do claim, that the Clerk in con-
tracing for that part of the printing, did not
lay himself liable to the charges Of fraud which
have been heralded against him by the whig
press, but, taking upon himself the duty which
he supposed was imposed by the resolution, be
acted as he thought would be best for the State.
Now, we ask our truthful neghbor to answer
plainly, whether, the letting of that part Of the
Journal comprising the reports of the several
departments and institutions, AZ the Clerk did,
to the same person who had that printing to do
for the House, was nota matter of economy
whether it would not save the expense of setting
the same type again? He will do well to inform
his readers on this point, before charging us e.
gain with deception.
!, What the exaggerated story about Medary's
quarrel with Casad has to do with this matter
we cannot conceive, but perhaps the keen percep.
tion of our neighbor can. We do not think it
our duty to espouse their quarrels and make
them the standard by which we are to judge
questions of public policy.
We do not throw back the charge Of deception
into our neighbours teeth, because we think his
ailing is of very different nature-he is badly
troubled with the simples and has taken cold
and they have struck in and become chronic
and remediless.

childish fears that such a declaration will
lead to war,by cowardly insinuations bout
Kossuth's ''non-in,errention or fight poll

of attachment to Kossuth and his cause TO
J ournals of another stripe. Of which the mis-
