Messrs. Faulkner and Boteler.

We are Of the opinion that at the opening Of the
correspondence between Messrs. Faulkner and Bo-
teller, there existed no sufficient cause for per-
sonal difficulty, If the facts out of which It has
grown had been properly understood or properly
explained.
1t is, then, to the correspondence ITSELF and the
spirit in which it was conducted, that We are to
trace the difficulty now existing between them.
Had that correspondence taken place at some later
period, we have no doubt, from the courtesy which
had characterized the previous conduct Of both
these gentlemen toward each other that the affair
would have been easily and satisfactorily adjusted
But the occurrence Of that correspondence imme-
diatey after exciting political contest together
with the highly nHamed condition of partisan feel.
ing in the district caused il to be conducted with
an asperity and tartness which became personally
offensive, and led to demand for hostile meet
ing.
Under this view of the case, we are of the opin-
ion that the present difficulty between them adj
mits of a satisfactory and honorable adjustment
This we propose to accomplish by withdrawal Of
the whole correspondence embracing the letters
of Mr. Faulkner of the I'd of june, 9th of July,
Goth of July, and 9Th of August and the letters Of
Mr.. Boteler of the Esd June, 18th Of July, and
I'd of August, and by stating the conclusions
which appear upon the face Of the correspondence
ITSELF Invested of all eKtraneous offensive, and en-
barrassing matter.
lst. IL appears from that correspondence that
Mr.. Faulkner was not the author Of the communi-
cation which appeared In the Virginia Free Press,
of the 9th Of October, 1851, giving an account of
the meeting between the Hon. Henry Bednger
and himself at Harper's Ferry. That James E.
Stewart, Esq, was the avowed and responsible au-
thor, and that the manuscript which was placed in
the hands of Mr. Boteler by the editor Of the Free
Press, was merely copy Of the article made by
Mr.. Faulkner at the request Of Mr.. Stewart.
I'd. Although Mr.. Boteler YVES intrusted with
that manuscript for considerable time by the edi-
tor of the Free Press, with full permission to use
it as he might deem proper it does not appear that
he, on any occasion, made an improper use of Il,
either to assa the private character Of Mr. Faux
or otherwise, and that Mr.. Boteler, in the cor
respondence, fully and sufficiently disclaims any
such use of it.
These being the only issues involved In this cor
respondence, and such appearing upon the face Of
it to be the real state Of the matter, purged of all
that is irrelevant and exs-sneous We are happy TO
have II in our power to state that the difficulty Is
susceptible Of satisfactory and honorable adjust
ment, and in that adjustment, as above set forth,
we concur. II. b. TYLER,

For the Grand River Times

In your issue of the 23d inst, notice anoth-
er effort, made by the good citizens of Grand
Haven, to erect and complete church. This
enterprise, if taken hold Of by those whose du.
ty and privilege it is to embark in it, will, with
out doubt, be smiled upon by the Great Ruler
of all. The amount proposed to be raised,
$4,000, is quite a respectable sum- to be sure,
but Llearn one firm offers $1,000, to head the
subscription That is tolerable fair in amount,
and about right; but that kind of subscription
will shut out good many who have the mort-
fication of being poor from giving anything, if
the amount is restricted to $4,000. presume
mot being present at the meeting and having
not yet seen the list-that it is very possible
that the subscription was headed by our young,
worthy, and enterprising citizens, H., c. e. w.;
and if SO, it is hardly possible to conclude that
the old firm, with a new face, would be content
with less amounts and then our esteemed
friend, next No. up the river, would never be
satisfied with any thing less than the same SUBJ
scription, from the fact he is doing so much in
ornamenting the lower extremeties of the bu-
man family by having them we'll shod, at least
one day in seven. He certainly would claim
the privilege. Next comes our mammoth lum-
bering company. 1t would be an infringement
upon their rights, not to allow them the oppor-
tunity and privilege of writing $1,000 upon that
paper. So you see the amount already
subscribed is sufficient not only to finish but to
ornament the building What then will be-
come of the smaller gifts that our citizens void
esteem it duty and privilege to donate! l
would suggest the proprety of undertaking to
raise $4,000 for that purpose, and think it could
be done; that would give every one an oppor-
tunity of giving as they saw fit. Recolect the
widows mite" Again, how are you using
some of the large property holders that live in
other counties and in other States? They
would hardly submit to the erection of such an
edifce without being allowed to give literally.
