A:CORRECTIUN.

IN the last Spectator a card APP
peared over the signature Of r. Maui
zy, Editor Of that paper, which places
lis. imam unfair position, not at all
consonant with the facts. He says
cit remains to be seen whether Col.
Hartman will succeed by the strong
hand in preventing all inquiry into a
transaction which as stated-sby his
OWN FRIEND ANDlELATIvE places him
in the attitude Of having first violated
all the usages of civilized warfare by
the plumber Of private property, and
then in violation Of his duty to his
own Government appropriated the
. plumber to his private use. This is
false. ellis friend and relative for
he alluded to us) DID NOT state that
Col. Hartman had captured the prop
erty nor did the Editor Of the Specta-
tor have any right to infer that Col.
H. had anyt thing to do with it's cap
ture from our article. Hence the Ed
itors allusion to it we thought out Of
place, being calculated and intended
evidently as prejudicial to an absent
officer, without just cause, as was his
allusion to us unjust, to say the least.
We DID NOT say Col II. captured or
sent it, both of which would have
been untrue, asi was done by a private
soldier, and hence we could not have
placed Col. Fl. in the. position of ha =
ing violated either usages Of civilized
warfare or obligations to his Govern
ment.
Now Mr.. Editor, in order to shield
yourself, please do not attempt to
drag us into position Of responsible
ity, because of construction you may
place upon what we may write, when,
as in this instance that construction
is unsustained by the facts and utter
" groundless.
We would not have said any thing
Cat this particular time,) had not Mr..
Mauzy, over his own signature, at
tempted to place us in position un-
warranted by the facts and which we
were unwilling to occupy.
