A Mistake.

Tho Chillicothe Register publishes
our article about the torture Of wit
ness in Chillicothe until he went crazy,
and then the editor says:
''At first glance one would think the editor Of
the Standard IN dead earnest, and that he was
really very much shocked at the customary
cross-examinaLl0n lnlulgGd In by legal gentle
men, but a somewhat different face is put upon
the matter when II Is remembered that, once
upon Time. In q legal contest In jackson
county, the Aforesaid editors Immortal soul"
was terr IDLY shattered aud his OVerwe ening con-
celt knocked clear out of him by che counsel
whose name appeared In connection with the
above case. The Standard man has never been
able to forget The casllgation, and Its recolec-
llon accounts for the milk In this indignant
coc0anut."
We have practiced law more or less,
generally less,) for twenty years, and
We never had any counsel from Chilli
cothc, or any other place, treat us 9th
er than with courtesy and kindness.
We have often referred to the gentle
man from Chillicothe insulting the
moral aud religious portion Of our peo
pie by sneering at them as fools and
fanatics because they chose to enforce
tbelaws against selling liquor to minors,
thus running tho boys and young men
of the community But we think
we were not counsel in that case,
At any rate, the gentleman from Chilli
Gothic never did US any harm or wrong,
individually aud We have no personal
feeling against him.
As to "oyerweening conceit," the
less the gentleman from Chillicothe
says about that, tho better.
AS to the "legal contest" the "caSti-
CATION" &C., TO which the Register re-
fsrs, we will set them right That con
test was between two Chillcothe law
yers, The gentleman of whom the
Register speaks, used language so in
sulting to the other Chillicothe lawyer,
that the latter raised a chair, and would
have crushed or knocked the self con
Ceit, or something else, out ofthe gentle
man, had notthe Sheriff intOrlered. In
that contest We took no part, and at the
req uest of one of the parties, who is q
gentleman, we said nothing about it at
the time. % .
To viudcate tho truth ofhistory, and
to set us right, we ask tho editor Of the
Register to publish the above, "

Sir; reply briefly to your letter of the 4th
inst in reference to tho amount oe pub ib debt

the amount on the 1st of February, 1870. 'o'
The net amount OF tAe public debt soH tho 1st
of March, 1869, including interest accrued and
not paid, and erciUding Pacific Railroad bonds,
was 81 .525, ,463, $50 Of, The principal Of the
bonds then issued to the Pacific Railroad Com
panies was s53, ,937 900, or an aggregate liability
aud Indebtedness of 81, 5fS ,fe0, 2Go Of.
On the Ist of February, 1870, the net amount
ofthe debt, erohtdiRg bonds issued to the Pacific
Railroad Compan les, and including interestac-
crued aud not paid WAS $2,444S13, 288 %. The

at the latter date amounted to SG4 457, 800, or
an aggregate liability and Indebtedness of ~, ,509,
