ally referred to it, on which some of the de-
pendants of the Cresap family, of whom
there are many in this county, furnished
him with historical and documentary evil
dence that satisfied him that that speech is
in part at least fictitious, and so far as its

COrrecIiOn.-We misunderstood,
and consequently misrepresentcd Capt.

NAL in two particulars.
/. OF Scotland We reported him as say
ing;
Scotland since 1916, when $4,000 peo-
pie owed the country, has added ohc-slA
,ecllth OF one per cent annually with mon
~
mortmayrd ana sold until nine men own
three -lourths and the Duke of Soutlierla d
the remainder"
We should have said one and one six
tccnth annually, and that the Duke of
Switzerland owns one-tourth of the three
tourths owned 10y nine men, he being one
of the nine.
,. We reported him as saying
"Ld Congress mortgage the entire pro-
perry OF the country rs a basis for circdla-
ton" (of paper money! and make the me-
dunn receivable for all public and private
dues, &c.
What he said was that the bonds of
the government nou IN existence are Il
mortgoge on the entire property of the
country, and should be made II basis for 4
paper currency, without the intervention of
bankers and brokers', who, he said were
the curse OF tho plcsent system"
