Hnnrmnn Foote.

Henry S. Foote, who has tried his hand
at Almost everything, from fighting duel
to editing a newspaper, has been walked up
in his Canadian retreat by the Toronto
Leader. He does not relish being designA-
ted by that journal as Hangmsn Foote,
any more than he does being called rene
gade to the South, and accordingly bsrAted
its secession editor in long and lachry-
NOSE reply. Among other things, he tells
how he came to be called HsngmAn Foote,
which may be new to some Of our readers.
We quote: @
The epithet Hangmsn Feote," which
you have thought proper to apply to me, L
confess is not 1T all new. I received the
sppellstion fifteen years sgo, becsuse of
ueTv foolish and inconsiderate speech which
l made in the United States cenate, IN re-
sponss TO q very courteous and eloquent
one delivered by Mr.. Hale, Of New Hamp-
shire, in denunciation Of The system OF ne
gro slavery in the South. confess that l
was so uDpsrlian entary as TO say on that
occasion that he deserved to be hanged for
using such language IS he then uttered.
Indeed, 1 may, in reply, have employed
language of directly menseing character.
Let me declare TO you now, though in
all frankness, that was heartily ashamed
of having used such lsngus Immediately
after 1 had done so, and t6ke1 seized an
esrly opportunity ofmAking formal stone
ment for my fault, in open Senate, and In
the hearing of the country, which formal
..,ro,,ay, xzaa rapoafad on mora than one
occasion. Still, must confess that I can
scarcely blame any one tor supply ing to
me an epithet which, it is evident, l did SO
much to justify; and if you and other con-
trollsrs Of the public press still think that
the offence which committed on the Oc-
,casion referred to is really of an incapable
nature, I will have, with as good grace as
practicable, to tubmit to wear this terrible
shirt of Nessus for the remainder of my
life.
