vere for the revolving and undisgused filth Of his malice
and for his persistent, perpetual mendacty. The dtn-
gushed Pennsylvania senator has borne himself in the
private walks of life and so borne himself in the high
offices which have been conferred upon him by the
people of his native State the respect OF poit
cal enemies and present and reputation which
cannot be suied in the slightest degree BY the impudent
and impotent malice Of the Tribune,

Mr. Greeley says again
