Joseph Holt Bears Testimony to His Loyal
tyshnd FaIthfulness.

tyshnd Faithfalness.
WASHINGTON, October 15.-Mr. Joseph
Holt, who was Postmaster General and
after Secretary of War under President
Buchanan, has written a fOur-cOlumn
letter. which the National Republican
prints, in reply to statements made by
MIR. Jacob Thompson, who was also
member of President BuchanRn's Cabi-
nent. The letter closes with the fol
lowing defense of the loyalty of Pres
ident Buchanan;
81 cannot close this cOmmun ication
without bearing emphatic testimony to
the loyalty Of President Buchanan
throughout the troubled scenes which
marked the last months of his adminis-
tratiOD. With measureless responsible
ties depressing him, badgered by trai-
tors and by the department of the Gov
ernment which owed his sympathy and
a loyal support, and standing as he did,
on the brink of a great national calami-
ty, the immlnence of which was RWing
all hearts, he was often cast down, bat
never unfaithful to his duties. Amid
the binding TancOr of party strife he
was constantly misunderstood anu mis-
represented. He was not an aggressive
man, nor at all given to violent forms
OF speech or of action. He shrank from
the contemplation of civil war and the
blOOdshed it would involve, and sought
to postpone it to the last possible mo-
ment. But in all this there was 20
tsint of dislOyalty. While, however,
uniformly gentle and suave in his
modes, he was not the less firm in view
OF the end to be finally attained. And
yet it was this very gentleness and
suaVity-the result in part, perhaps, of
his temperament, but yet more, il may
be, of the training inseperable from his
diplomatic eaTeer-Which often misled
men who paused not to reflect that iron
hands are sometimes found i'll silken
gloves.
