TO the Editor of the National ReprJlicdn
SIR: IN your local column of the 22d, you pub
lishod a letter purporling tu have hocn written
from misplace To Maj. Ridcnour, making several
statements concerning ,Uysolfaud certain allog
cd dnings in this noighborhnOd, which you re
mark you "hnvo heard hntod at before" " and
which you think deserve tho attention OF the
military authorities TRUST you " III do me the
justice to allow me to say that the letter in
question is an Infamous sores of falsehoods,
evidently written to inllame evi.disposed per.
sons against me, to crafty the spleen of some
personal enemy. have no doubt it was writ.
len by some contemplate fellow in this neigh
borhood, who would not dare 10 make such
statements openly. That was contemplating
any "villainy" against Union men, or have
persuaded soldiers to desert, or have large
meetings of wealthy farmers, at my house, two
or three times week. All these things are
the basest and most infamous fabrications. The
fact that they were stated in an anonymous let.
ter ought to have shown the true character oi
the writer to Major Rdenour and should, re.
spectfully suggest, have prevented your giving
publicity to his malignant ialsehoods.
Respectfully, yours, &C.,
JAMES J. JARDoE.
