| What an elegant and refined specimen o
| literature is here furnished by this aspirant fo
| high official positions. His Ignorance is only
! eoualed by his bRseness, for the man who woult
publish pYiUdte letter, written in the confdenc'
| of friendship, is the basest of base creatures
| and entitled to the scorn and contempt of al
| honorable men.
For years we have been putting this man init
| prominence, and we are now reaping the fruit
of our friendship for him. We again repea
| nothing but the course adopted by Irwin woul
ever have induced us to give publicity to a com
munication that will cause the blush of sham
to mantle the cheek of intelligent men. The

by his assurance and conceit, forced himself int
