Mr.. CARRIER and the Sentinel.
Since the unfortunate ARRAY between CARRIER and Hibbs
which resulted disastrOusly to the former have
made no aiusion the transaction. An article which
was copied from the Madisonan before heard Of the
reneontre and which had been type days. made
its appearance in the Sentinel Monday morning We
had forgotten that the article was in the hands Of the
composItor. II a defence of Senator Bright, and
copied az extract from the New York Evening Post
edited by William Cullen Bryant, the poet and polt-
cian. The name Of Mr.. CARRIER, the Madison Cou-
rer was not mentioned bat there was enough to ex-
the Editor raise the howl OF persecu

copy it entire.
THE MALIGNANT CREW.
Mr. Garber lies perhaps his death-bed Before the
rises Tomorrow down to-day, his
spirit may have returned TO God who gave it.. Yet his
enemies relent William j. Brown, the head and
front of them in Jesse D. Brights absence, and a
as malignant any Of them that could stab him the
heart exu his mortal blow. republishes in the
Sentinel Of yesterday article from the Infamous sheet
issued in this city, in which the possibly dying is
stigmatlZed as - a common and notorious liar whose
very instincts debar him from giving utterance to
the truth 20
Since the establishment Of that sheet from which Will

Ia the possession Of wealth and power upon Mr. Gar
ber Every base dastardy and infamous action he has
been charged withal. Lsshed and goaded day by day
until he driven into provoking his perhaps mortal
stab here, unless his enemies born Of He'll ITSELF it

hand Of one Of their number he has fallen They have
rid themselves Of him, II may be, by homicide In the
name of the mcrcul Christ let them stop THAT; and
howl like wolves around him he sasps his last
tapping with thirsty tongues the blood which their
fangs have spilled
Maiignity constitutes part Of our characters
who knows will make such charge; and we
think the readers Of the Courier will bear witness with
US ta the columns Of that paper have for the last
moats contained bitter vituperative and abusive
articles in reference to US than has ever before dis
graced the columns Of public journal Our offence was
that the friend of Jesse D. Bright. We have
sometimes referred these assaults but nine times
of ten they have been permitted pass unnoticed
LIAR" +" scoundrel," 50 villain" rascal" Sc, has
been the chosen vocabulary from which bitter epthets
have been culled.
Mr. CARRIER has fallen victim his gross PERSONAL
ties. The character Of men high in station and high in
the moral and religious community where he (Garber)
resides have been assailed with fendsh malignty
On the day of the ARRAY with hbbs and but few hours
before the disastrous conflict he published the follow
lag:
Quite exciting scene occurred yesterday,
dersiand between Ham Hbbs, the redoubtable of
Mr. Brights followers, and one Of the L" 81" on Null
berry In the alteration Senator Brghts
freely used IN connection with fraud, robbery &c.
Hbbs also accused of making out bill of jOiss
&c, thirty feet long for tceaty foot house for the 27
man. and taking the odd lumber for FIRE wood The pen
sion agent, Joseph w Chapman, it is said attempted
bully the Of the q" by saying that be dare
tell Mr. Bright that he had cheated him. To which the
127th replied that he C0Eld and that Chapman should
be invited to be present hear him do so. There may
be fun ahead"
To carry out the fun, CARRIER met Hibbs, who is a
much smaller man, and, with in hand stopped him
the street and spit in his face. Mr.. Hbbs who is
hard-workng carpenter, returning home from his
work, with ehisel in his hand, Immediately repealed
the assault and in the aray CARRIER severely wound
ed Such gross personalities and insulting assaults are
generally followed by disastrous consequences To spit
IN mans face is gross assault intended insult and
degrade Kim. There man, but craven coward,
who would resent it. But have disposition to
iorestal public opinion. Let justice take its course
We regret extremely that the bitter and abusive arti-
Gle which copy entire has made these remarks ne
cessary. We have acquaintance with Mr. Hbbs
and have had connection with the quarrel further
than CARRIER has involved all the friends of Senator
Blight. We hope he may rise from bis bed Of affection
better man, remembering that the way of the trans
gressor is hard, and his destruction certain.
