that they have done him gross injustice. Will
they do it? Will they even publish his letter {?

DEAR SIR Enclosed you will find article, in
which, as one OF the editors of the Southern Press of
this city, took issue with my colleague in ad vocacy
of your claims southern support for the P!esden
cy. That action predcated upon my belief of
your entire soundness upon the slavery question.
w hn the last week a speech, purPorting to have
been delivered by you in January last, has been
published from two Democratic papers in your
State, (which said to support you.) On the
truth falsity of this, much depends Neither those
with whom act myself, consent that any
doubt should rest a matter of such importance
but, placing full reliance the fearless frankness of
ruly ask of you whether that report, which your
southern supporters believe he without foundation
as opposed to your previous course, is correct!
The peculiar position which l occupy must plead
my apology for troubling you with this letter.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
EDWIN DE LEON.
