II is unnecessary to say that neither Mr..
Allen nor we have any idea who the author
Of the letter IS. II is Mr., Aliens opinion
that he is colored men, but from the
handwriting (Which is disgulsed) and
several expressions contained IN the letter
such as take HEED in time we are in
clined to believe that the writer is a white
man, and If he is, he Is certainly the most
contemplate Of his kind.
Mr.. Allen is a quiet, unassumlng man
who never mentions politics to anybody
and pays strict attention to his own AFFAIRS
| His language is always that of gentle
man and he studiously avoids coming IN
contact with boisterous and quauelsome
characters 1t is, therefore, not probable
that he should have done or said anything
that would have induced anybody to write
the above for any other reason than TO
frighten him back into the Republican
party This is the evident intention OF the
authors and should they make any further
attempt in that direction they will surely
have cause to regret it and should them
selves be "drummed out of town by
the honest members of both parties

iozers remember that liberty OF thought is
guaranteed TO everybody, and that if they
interfere with the free exercise thereof they
will DO so to their sorrow.
