little we confess by The courage required to enter
upon such an ignoble service. If there is an up
right in The Union, exact IN tho discharge Of all

Toucey, the present Secretary of the Navy Able
and honest long tried AMI faithful public Officer
he may well feel indifferent to the assaults OF

nothing to his prejudice nothing to reflect upon

present the readers Of the Union with Mr.. Touceys

unanswerable vindcation OF himself and shall ui'-
