THE sUrLER-sLANDER AGAINST TIE
SECRETARY OF WAR REFUTED.

The New York Herald of the 9th inst.
was, in journalistic sense, ridiculously
sold, by printing letter concerning army
Sutlership IS a piece OF ve1itable news.
The history of that journal, fruitful in
blunders, hardly discloses a time when 1t
made such complete ass of itself as on
this memorable occasion. The Herald
should add to its exchange list the Chicago
Morning Courier In the issue of that
newspaper Of the 19th of January, the
editor of the Rerold will find its import
ant piece of news printed entire. Intelli-
gent editors understood perfectly well the
source and animuS of the article, and it fell
still-born upon the country. The facts in
the case are simply these: The name of the
wretched creature who edits the Chicago
Courier is John r. Bothwell. In the hope
Of contributing TO the defeat Of Secretary
Belknap, when a candidate for the United
States Senate from the State of Iowa, he
cencocted the pitiiul, yet infamous, lies in
regard TO the Secretary and suffers, and
published them, as stated, in his paper of
the 12th of January, the very same lies
which the Herald reprinted February 8.
The following is copy Of dispatch
which passed between Chicago and Des
Moines January II:

Who is this man Boutwell,, and why his
