HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. IS, 1862.

WASHINGTON, ID. e., Dec. 49, 1867.
To the Editor of the Enquirer
In an Abolition newspaper of your city,
of "a recent date, l observe the following
"Mr Vallandigbam, by his propositions for
a division of the Republic into four distinct
neutrality-suspicious. as Infamous in
their design as uinous in their consequences
did as much to rouse the people to a sense
of their real danger, as the first shots of the
insurrectionists at Charleston"
Now, it is somewhat remarkable certainly,
that after the introduction, in February, 1861,
of the propositions falsely thus described by
that newspaper, it not only complimented the
speech in which Mr.. Vallandigham defended
them, but actually SO far failed to become.
aroused to a sense of danger, as to repeat
eddy and earnestly advocate the policy OF let
ting the South goa something that Mr.. ".
has never done to this day. But let that pass.
The deliberate and circumstantial repet.
ton at this time, and in its fullest form, of
the misrepresentation of the nature Of the
propositions which | did introduce, is but an
other proof of the desperate fortunes of the
Abolition party, and particularly of the press
which has supported it. To the personal as
saults Of that press, and especially Of the pa
per quoted from, l reply not. Pope aud Pa

Abolition paper of Cincinnati, in regard
to his proposition in Congress arranging
the States into sections lCithin the Union

several occasions corrected the false state
ments in regard to the resolutions referred
to, and the fact that in themselves the pur-
pose is SO plain and unequivocally set forth
that no man of the least intelligence need
be misled in regard to them, the Abolition
press of the country have persisted in mis-.
representing them as "resolutions for dis,
solving the Union"
The letter which we publish to-day is
complete and unassailable vindication by
the Truth of History" from the false anC
malicious charges of his enemies. But W.
have no idea that it will silence their Sian.
