Hooker. who made "a special recommends
ton TO President Lincoln for his promotion.
and asked that he might be ordered to re-
port to him whereupon, the President i'm
medistely appointed him Brigadisr Gene
raj. in which position he has since served
with honor to himself and country.
As soon as Mr.. Julian was advised OF Col.
Ms nomination, he set about to defeat his
confirmation by malgning and traducing
his character to every New England Sena-
tor he dared TO approach upon the subject.
Our readers will also recolIect the denunci-
atoms heaped upon Gen. Meredith. as we'll

Of the Wayne Circuit Court.
We could mention many similar instan-
ces where his viper like and malignant spir-

We have mentioned will convince the reader
that Georges opposition has not amounted
to much, IS they are all gentlemen of high

Mr.. Julian has always been known rs an
exceed ngly cold-hear,ed. untruthful, malig-
nan and dishoaes, lawyer, who would pre-

Has any of Mr.. Julian's family or rela-

his time prowling around Washington hun

children of the msN he SO much delights to

of the government. Nothing pleases him i:

difference. He was once . candidate for
the Vice Presidency. and although having
been admitted to the bar near thirty years
he never attained position as second

that he cannot. and never did, manage a
case of any magnitude before any court.

gress. He knows practically nothing of

any other Union member of Congress from

For the past few months. this distinguish
ed gentleman has spent greater portion Of
his time. together with few Clerks in the
Agricultural Department. getting out PAM
phle,s defaming the character Of the Com
missioner Of Patents. with a view to defeat
ing the annual appropriations for the sup
port OF the Patent Office but in this he
has most signalIy failed a. he has in most
other cases. But having been instrumeu-
tal in coming these monstrous falsehoods,
his organ still continues to publish them,
hoping that some one will credit some por-
ton of their dastardly lies. These cha..
ges have all been Investigated by q commit
tee. every member of which wa. unfriendly
to the Patent Office. and especially the
Chairman. The result of the investigation
submit that it Is complete vindica,ion Of
the conduct of Mr.. Holloway. Not one of
the charges are substantiated. and upon the
contrary. many are proved downright lies
and we are assured it has made the Commits
sioner scores of friends.
We took great pleasure in thankiDg Mr..
Julian for his opposition to Mr.. II. aod for
his efforts to defeat bis confirmation, and
we again volunteer our thanks, on Mr.. HIS
behalf for his course since that time. As
for his 'Sancho Panza,' who is constantly
playing with the hounds of tine "butter-
nuts" be is too Insignificant and cowardly
TO attract the attention Of any honest man.
