us on two very prominent black republican false
hoods that have been going the rounds of the
opposition press:- .....
Two weeks ago the editor of the Scioto Gu
zette stated that Mr.. Pugh had chad an open
rupture with Buchanan. The hequarTel arose out
of the question Of the Ohio appointments. All
that we have yet learned is that the President
used very severe language and Mr.. Pugh left in
disgust and very angry" This news first tele.
graphed from here to New York, and Grom there
all over the country And there is about as
much truth--and no more in it-as there was
in the terrible Kansas stories published by the
Opposition press during the Presidential cam
paIgn | speak but the truth when | say that
the President did not "usc very severe lang.
uage," nor did Mr.. Pugh leave "in disgust and
very angry" My information comes from a
gentleman who was present at the interview
between the President and Senator Pugh at
which the difficulty is Said to have occurred
Mr.. Pugh, in company with number ofother
Ohioans, called upon the President, to see him
in regard to some Ohio appointments. The
gentlemen made their statements, as did also
Senator Pugh. The President did not say that
he would not appoint this man or that man; but
listened patiently to the different statements
without using "severe language" and without
giving any assurances as TO who should lie ap-
pointed. This was all that occurred, and yet
we find published by all the Opposition prints
in gtarng capitals that "Push has had a quar-
rel with the President" &c. Is not the eager
ness they manifest in publishing this item, ev.
idence that they would be but too hap
py to have such quarrel, as they describe, take
place?
There is another mis- statement which has
been going the rounds Of the Opposition prints
in your State for a couple Of weeks, and which
first appeared in the Cambridge (Oho) Times
several weeks since. That paper says "somt
weeks ago our Member, VIM Lawrence, told /;
citizen Of our place, who was in Washington thai
| If he had voted for Lecompton, he would have
made his pile.' lie voted for the English swim.
die. Did he make his pile?'" Although thC
writer Of this does not approve of Mr.. H..
course as Democratic representative, it is bu
due to him to say that the above is a "falsehood
manufactured out of whole cloth" There has
not been single citizen of Cambridge in thi
city since the commencement OF Congress- t.
4 Mr. Lawrence's knowledge. He has seen nj
one from there, and, consequently, could no
| have made the statement charged to him above
These falsehoods, however, tend to show th
position into which the Opposition have beer
driven since the Kansas question has been re
moved from the halls Of Congress, and they ar
determined il possible. by fair means and fou
! to defeat those members from the North VIII
voted to bring about that result. No efor
will be spared, ,--no hlsehood left uupublishe
that can aid in defeating the Northern Demo
cratic members. Let the people be on thei
guard and demand the proofofthe charges mad
hereafter by the Opposition press.
