isfactory to the people, aud that he is only
= constrained from the publicity of them by
the request of one of the principal officers of
the Government" Our Republican friends
can easily ascertain whether the statement IS

New York has not produced civil war, and
there will be none in the loyal States until the
radicals inaugnrate it. G. II. c.
