he has overshot the mark, inasmuch as he
Is ignorant of my antecedents For the ben

state that when the Government was in peril [
took nv musket a. n volunteer, and went to the
defence o. Alexandria, without bounty or pay:
and no man ever knew me in any other capacity

Michael Dutiy, the woul1-be demagogue, was
skulking around the streets If WashIn ton. the

cases. Respectfully YOURS
