repsoanre which took place bet wee a us- I have
bees prevented by other more important mailers
from sooner making a few oterv-aions opon that
pubheation and now, as you gavs it circulation, I
ihmk I may rly upon your courtesy lo insert any
remarke.
la Ihe first place, there bad snpesrsd in 71
asu'arr report.of a speech of enine si the greet
Birmingham meeting en lh first af August, which
contained the hilowiog paragradi I
" believe Ibeir very ambassador ber ia a la ve

f it ihe purpose of traffic. Nil pnesiblalhal Ameri.
ca would send here man Wbe traffics in blood,
and who is a di.grace lo human natural. 1 kopt
tkt iurrium it a arue, tut if is rigkt to ipttk out."
, In Ihe next place. Mr. StsvenwMt, on Ihe 9th of j
August, wrote to me 4 letter containing part of the
above paragraph that is, be omitted the words
which I have put in ilslica, and which manifestly
show that the report could not be accurate, as these
words made it involve t direct contradiction. And
thus, having ascertained lhal the report eould not
be correct, he, with the gravity of a diplomatist,
put lo me ihe single question, vis : whether the re
port wss correct or not! it being thus impossible
lhat he should gel any other reply to that question
than lhal tbe report was not correct.
Of course, I answered his question accordingly,
namely, lhat the report was not correct but I re
ferred expressly in my reply tn another report of
the speech in my possession, imagining that he
would, upon such reference, call tor the accurate
version. .
Thus far it is quite clear that no apology had
been required or made. I am no duellist and
should therefore, if asked, have staled what 1 really
did say, abiding by it only as far aa it waa true, and
abandoning it in any particular Hi which it might
appear lhat I wa mistakeu.
But as I made Mr. Stevenson no apology, be de
termined on making on 10 himself, end accordingly
he wrote a second letter, and in it primmed that I
