Col. Mulligan's Answer.

We have no right to question too
closely mans motives by what he
says, nor to attach an interpretation to
his words that he did not mean. but on
the face of it, and IN its common ac-
ceptation Col. Mulligan's answer to
Gen. Price when tha6 rebel leader de-
manded the Surrender Of Lexington,
has the appearance of being protane.
TO the pious it is unquestinna6ly cen
surable, and # the Colonel is a church

but what 1t Is terse and to the point. =

That was the voice Of a soldier who
was i'll earnest. And it may have been
intended as piece Of advice: sort of
admonltion, knowing that Price would
have to 60 there one day, unless he
mended his ways very materially He
did not wish to waste words. He was
in no parleying mood. Prices lam

not brook it. lie had other work to
do besides framing an answer that
would look we'll on paper, or sound
grateful to ears polite or religious. Di-
plomacy may require proixity and
smooth indirectness. It may dodge a
point and stop short of a strait forward
conclusion, but IN the stern realities of
war it is different. The language here
must be unmistakeable, clear OF all am
blgulty, and is best in good plain Eng
fish and it should be short as possible,
