" affecting the personal character Of 3lr.
Browning, Secretary Of the Interior. can
not now quote the language of the despatch,
hut the idea distinctly sought to -le con.
veycd was, that Mr.. Browning, when on the
eve Of entering the Cabinet, If not already
within 1t, (for no precise date was named In
the despatch,) had, for bribe of ten thou
sand dollars, sold his personal iufluchce
with The President, in order to prevent the
puntshment Of certain persons in South Car

Union soldiers. do not belong to the po-
lIticaf party with which 3fr. Browning is
now identified, but my personal relations
with him have been intimate for more
than twenty years, md take pleas
'irc In saying that, nnong all tho
men Of my acquaintance, there is not one
whom should consider more utterly unap-
proachable by bribe. When, therefore, l
saw the paragraph in your paper, felt en-
tircly certain there VAS not shadow Of truth
In it, SO far as It attributed corruption or
improperly, and in letter written TO Mr..
Browning shortly after. I chilled l,fs attention

course Of the Chief Magistrate; holding up
the hands Of the loyal Congress; declaring
against tile admission Of blood-staincd trail
