Palmer still lives yes, Ia unshsksn Ia
the EtFsagth Of bis integrity. He il not
anuihilated, bat sill enjoys the same
public confidence as man Of Intsgrity
and honor, Which Is the real secret Of
the intanse hatred manifsstad towards
bin by the enaiSsaEias Of seetionality
and fanasieism.
Hsisher worse nog . better man than
before this grand coup de main Of the
Black Republican organ, yet he has ris-
sn, rather than deprecated, in the esti-
nation Of all just and right minded men,
from ti's dastaEdly ASSAULT by which il
thought TO anuihilate him, and now, that
the pens up venom Of his enemies has
found full vent, his friends are more
firmly rivstsd TO him and more praeEie-
ally devoted in making their friendship
an effective shield to one whose fidelity
to principle and zeal for the right have
made him the target fer sReh shafts Of
malice and revenge. He cares not for
the opinion Of the low and grovslIing, in
whose minds alone such ISLANDERS can OBJ
tain the least oEedsnes, a. every intelli-
gent person knows that thsy could only
be conceived AID pas forth By heart so
depraved that neither truth nor virtue
has any abiding place therein.
The worst feature Of the case, is its
eriminalisy against society, 10 say moth
ing Of its gross ofsnss against thnaa Pc
litiosl friends who may have introduced
that sheet within the sacred precincts Of
the family circle.
We need add nothing upon the das-
sardlys inshble msannsss Of publishing
such personal libels as a gentleman can
neither stoop to notice for a public ref
utAtion, nor permit any friend to DO so
for him. The culpgit has now got to
the end Of his rope let him take the
consequences Of the reeoil.
For the third Ems-twies sinss that
gentleman's card Of denial, and once
since We challenged tho Eonpareil to
produce its proot-ths editor reiterates
the charge Of oficial dishonesty and
false stosarisg against Mr.. Palmer and
still sgithoG! tas prooE-though be pre-
tends TO have it in his possession. His
insulting proposition for as to call upon
him ''psrsoaaIlg," that hs may soon
ciscs" Us, &C., is duly appreciated. We
prefer to give the proof itsalE-proof
that he can in no wise get round, to ex-
tFieate himself from che dilemma Of 3
convicted slanderer and "malicioua
LIAR" placing the stamp Of their true
character upon all his efforts in the line
Of personal defamation.
The following correspondence settles
the question AZ to the only charge of
that sheet which Mr.. Palmer is called
upon 10 rsfute. Il needs no comment.
The intelligent reader will not fail to
mako the proper application and correct
Interpretation Of the whole matter con-
