General Stringfcl!ow resides on the very

displayed in the discussion of the slavery
question in his publications and addresses,
together with his reputation in his own
State, has induced It's to believe that his
views will be more entertaining and servicea-

people of the South, than any Information
within our reach.
We therefore present his letter, in reply
