have seen, with feelings of deep regret, in tlie
Montrose DemOrrat or the . 35th i ist. a most
grossly libellous article upon pit:.
We are ourselves - witnesses of its 'falsity in

as a • man and your entire integrity as a

known a case in which we supposed von
were influenced in the least by any political
