The following extract we take from the

at is also stated that NJ. A. O. Packard
was summoned before the Grand Jury,
doubtless for the purpose of testiiying what
he knew in regard to the existence of such
societies. but he smell, mice, and refused
to obey the summons. remarking that the
Grand Jury nor the Court could compel a
member of the Legislature 20 appear be-
fore it. This may, perhaps, be true, but
would he fall back upon his privilege as a
member of the Legislature, if he knew
nothing concerning the existence OF secret
reasonable societies?"
The above Is remarkable piece of i'm
pudent falsehood. Mr.. PACKARD was sum.

lie opinion among the loyal men abolition
lists, we said. of this vicinity-in other
words. that Mr.. B. had no conscientious
scruples about selling the Times, but con-
cluded not to do so longer for fear of the
consequences? Is this so Mr.. b? We

We answer this question for Mr.. BAL

speak for him, but having never observed
manifestation of the intolerance possess
ed by the abolition leaders of this place, in
him, We drew cur own inference, and think
it was correct. Answering this question
We would like to ask one. Is not the edi-
tor of the Republican acIuated by selfish.
I'm friendly and mercenary motives in ask
ing it? Does he not, by it, seek to make
it appear that Mr.. BAILEY is not sound on
the African question? lfso, is he not NOV

post mastership, and has he not used ev
cry means in his power TO Gust Mr.. BAILEY

that the charge that he proposes to divide
