The FREMONT AND FoorE DIFFICULTY
TESTIMONY or AN OpPoNEST---CARD or Gov
ERNoR FoorE.--The San Francisco ChrOni
Gle contains card from Gov. H. s. Foote,
who is stumping California for Fillmore, in
relation to the difficulty between himself and
Col. Fremont in the Capitol at Washington.
The following contains the main features OF
the card:
1t is not true that COL Fremont pronoun-
ced on the floor Of the Senate, anything
which had fallen from me in the course Of
| the debate to be false. And, although it is
true that he was dissatisfied with what had
said in opposition to his bill for the settle
ment Of land titles in California, and re-
quested special personal interview with me
on the subject, in the progress OF which he
used language which deemed it my duty to
resent, and did resent, yet it is not true that
Col. Fremont inflicted on that occasion tho
least personal indignity on me. The only
blow struck was one for which | am alone re-
sponsible, for before he had time to return
the blow received by himself Senators Man
gum and Clark interviewed and separated US.
Col. Fremont's note to me afterwards was OF
rather an equivocal character. His friend,
the present Governor Of New Jersey, who
was the bearer OF il, assured me that II Mas
not designed - challenge to tho field OF
honor; bat, supposing that It was at least
possible that Mr.. Price was In error on his
) part, wrote to Col. Fremont that IL my
note Of explanation did not prove satisfAc.
tory, should go without delay to the city OF
Baltimore, and send him my acceptance
. from thence. AT this stage Of the affair
/ friends interposed, and the difficulty Wal
settled, as | have always considered, in Z
manner creditabie to both parties. canno
close without he expression of my regre
s that any attempt should be made, in connec
/. ton with this transaction, to hold Col. Ere
mont responsible for conduct calculated t.
infringe upon the Freedom of debate in tn,
= United States Senate. However, opposed a
!. vet am to the measure advocated by hin
for the settlement Of the land titles in Cali
y forna, and however much am opposed I,
! his election to the Presidential Office, fec
. in Justice bound to declare that have neve
!. been disposed to complain seriously OF hi
conduct in the affair referred TO, and tina
there is nothing in it that should in the leas
3 degree lessen his claim TO the respect an,
e confidence OF his political friends and sup
4 porters. What is said about my age, an,
gray hairs, &C., is simply ridiculous, as
: was, in 1850, only forty-six years Of age
: and am yet sufficiently hale and vigorous t
defend my person and maintain my right ant
honor against any assaiant.
