irculars alluded TO are being circulated by

and can only judge Of its Infamous purport
BY the manner in which The Journal treats
it. We understand. however. that its re-
pu;ed author is fellow by the name OF
Fahnestock. of indianapolis, who is regard

Master, Adj. Gen. or Col; on his refusal to
thus bring disgrace on the service, he' with
a combination of other scoundreis and dis

alluded to By the Journal:
GovERSoR MORON OF ISDrANA.-A mis-
erably slanderous and vindictiye circular,
dated at Indianapolis on the lst inst, has
found its way to this city, and with those
unacquainted with the spirit which has die

dicial Influence against the popular, worthy
aud a,riotic Governor Morton of Indiana.

assured that he could not have composed il.
but is the eats paw of others. who have had
their applications for military preferment re-
iacted by the Governor This circular is a
virulent attack on Governor Norton "fticial
conduct and his private character We take
great pleasure in branding it as wilful mis-

more faithfully. zealously and impartially
than the Governor has done. His assiduity
