The Cresset after inventing the lie
about the Band of Gideon, next pro-
ceeds to attribute certain letter re
ceiyed by Mr.. Mullen TO members OF
the imaginary band. Without reading
the letter a surprisingly accurate
knowledge Of it's contents is displayed.
The handwriting, too, is similar to that
of the challenge sent out TO MIR. Garri-
son, signed Otis L0rton. secretary. The
Cresset says, ''of all the despicable be-
ings, the meanest and most cowardly
is the anonymous writer. He is dan
gerous to human liberty, for man
who would stab another's character
anonymously, would not hesitate to
drive knife into his back" Now in
stead of paving the air in search of
imaginary Gideons, wouldn't it be well
for the editorial twin head of the afore-
said religious weekly to hump itself e
prove to reasonable men that one OF
them is not lin it," They have used
every lever to pToduce discorn in our
ranks; and because Mr.. Mullen felt
himself aggrieyed by some of our party.
they thought in this manner TO swerve
him and his friends from. their prinei-
pies. But to the cIc cd't OF Mr.. Mullen,
we are pleased to say. the ATTEMPT is a
failure He clings to the party Of ms
principles. and whatever personal diff
ferences we may have had, we lay them
aside and ask every peoples party man
to do the same. Stand by Mr.. Mullen
and the whole ticket, as a fitting re
buke to such despicable efforts.
