asked now to do her the further service
of refursing the highest honors she car
bestow. Here the first lieutenant, Ken
nedy, shoves in his oar. He assures War
moth that sit will be of no service fol-
you to receive the election from this
Legislature, for have not the slightest
faith that you would be admitted to YOU
seat" This would seem a remarkable
| declaration from or to those who insist
upon making a case to test principle.
John Wilkes and John NJ Bolts, when
appealing to their constituents to over
rule a decision of a parliament or con.
gressional committee, never dreamed Of
] "backing," because they did not expect
to be admitted if returned In fact,
| either of those indomitable patriots
rather preferred rejection. 1t was scarce
ly respectful to Warmoth to have init
mated that he would not work with.
out the prospect of sure pay. Accord

know that it will involve me in Il very
| great expense for telegraphing, printing

chiefly during the aohoLe Of the late litigation.
1t is different thing to conduct con-
troversy from our private pocket, and to
launch out public warrants for printing
expenses, as before the late litigation.
The accused has even the temerity to
question the authority of The court mar
tia-which, in strict metaphor, should be
called the suryey-which the chief of the
underwriters was holding over in the
value of political ventures. Warmoth
says:
The best evidences of public opinion are
that OF Its representatives in the Legisla

tuted committee of citizens, the most of tchon,
toere appointed by HE distinguished gentleman
at their head, who has always been opposed
to me.
That this audacious remark was not
followed by incipient symptoms of ap-
poplexy was due entirely to the hale and
of risks The indignant establishment
with which it was received would have
withered an ordinary empioye into tt

sentence of Jonah. Yetsuppressing all ex-
plosive impulses, the diplomatic Adams
begs that you will acknowledge that no
member of this committee had any per.
sonal consideration in view" 1t is re-
garded as the highest proof of pluck in q
convict to shake hands with the officer who
turns him of. and present him with his
neckerchief as a token of entire and cor

who had tooth extracted by the ''pain-

regret to remark that the ill-omenod pas
senger on the fusion packet did not emu

demanded to be tried by the crew. This
being denied him he obstinately refused
to be reconciled or to sup salt water vol

Kennedy held him by the heels. and cast
him out to- appease the raging waters.
We submit that these extremely practical
