WASHINGTON, D. c., April 10, 1872.
answered YOU very hastily last evening as YOU
said that you wished an immediate reply, and per
baps in my hurry, did Lot make myself fully under
stood. You have been for some time laboring under
totally erroneous impression in regard to my results
in the Fort Smith matter. The sales of bonds which
you spoke OF my making, and which you seem to
have thought fol my benefit, entirely otherwise.

by every means in my power TO protect from loss l
am sure that you have little idea of the abors the
losses, the efforts and the sacrifices have made
WITHIN the past year to save those innocent persons
who invested my request, from personal loss, and
may say to You tonight, solemnly that am i'm
measureably worse off than if had never touched
the Fort Smith matter.
The demand which you make upon me now is one
which am entirely unable to comply with. 1 can

necessity knows no law, but that applies to me as
well as to you, and when have reached the point
am now at,I simply tall back that law You as
well aware as am, thatthe bonds are due me under
the contract, and could have them, could adjust
many matters, not now in my power, and 60 long as
TINS and other matters remain unadjusted between

on me for partial settlement. L am ready, at any
moment, to make full fair. comprehensive settle

be exacting captious critical but ready and
eager to make broad and generous adjustment with
you, and II we can't agree ourselves select
mutual friend who can easily compromise all points
of difference between us.
You will see, trust, am disposed to meet you in
spirit OF friendly cordiaity, and yet with sense of
selfdefence that impes me to be frank and expose to
you my pecuniary weakness. With very kind re-
