4. Pollard, brother Of Il. r. Pollard, who
was killed 0n Tuesday, arrived here yes
terday afternoon. BE published q card
in the EUeRi1ag State Journal, ailuding to
the cheering Of Grant by the crowd, the
verdict of the COrOner's jury, saying the
death was caused by an unknown person,
etc. He says:
Let these things stand to the shame OF
their perpetrators, and write their own
commentary on the chivalry Of Rich
mOnd. They shame not me. They
shame not the dead. My heart is suffi-
eient to hold hinl. No man can insult
nay tears. l come to claim but one thing
that justice be done. Let all true peO-
pie reconsider. I am far from defending
the article which has been referred 70 in
my brothers paper. l deeply regret it,
but my brother did not write it. The
murderer never inquired for the real au-
thor; he never asked any word of ex-
PLANTATION; he never applied to have the
article corrected he took not one single
measure which the brave man, no mat
ter how wropged, always takes before he
comes to the last resource of blood. He
went without enc alternative to that
resource, and he went where no one but
the coWard treads-on the path Of the
assassin. ED. A. POLLARD.
