The letter from We to Judge Ilenry. embraced in the article, nd up.in wbicli the assault iu based, carries on its face a refutation of the . wloW elanth r. The zealous wiitir felt, then-fore, the necessi ty of sustaining his allegations by various collateral assertions, andhich, perhaps, requites souic notice at niyliands. 1 have some difficulty at the outset in deciding wheiher the wiiier is tiife greater tiar1 r fooU I incline to the former concjtuion, but I will cite a few speci mens troiu the article mi support, also, of the rhore clutritabk opinion. First, and-comprehensively however the charge th it i am or ever have br en' luterested for or with Geo. W. Sw pson is wholly and absolutely false. I have ?io interest wbaiever, 1 any kind, in any transaction with Swepson, n-r ever had. TlKkt Swepson purchased from T D. Car ter the Cranberry property is alo false. Gen. II. F. ilo'i , P. J. Summer, and E. N. llutthinfon purchased the property, and Swepson -had an interest only by smms private arrangement with them. The price f r Carter's interest was not S40.000, but $44, GOO, ai d for the remain ing interests, extinguishment of hostile claims,-&t, they paid, about SG4.000 more. Tlie charge th at I was associated with Wuodfin as Carter's cotmeel is also un qualifi. dly false-. L never, appeared with him in any of the half dozen suits grow ingutot thti Cianbvrry matters. Ik-fore. 1 wasetnphryed iu any of lliem. Carle? informed me that, he had detected Wood fin in the Hct. of" betraying him selling him oct to.Swepson, and had discharg ed him.

And was t here anything impro- anything impi per 111 my proposition as above ? Swepson was reputed and generally believed to be insolvent. The property we proposed to the commission was purchased by the owners tor ahove 108,000, and they now ask for ti 8250.000.- Events fully justify my then opinion that they could well have affr el togtvean insolvent even $2001 000 tor so valuable a piece of property a sum more than the whole amount yet rcaliz-tJ. or ever liktly to be realized by that com mission. - The nbject-of this assault upon me. at this time, must, be sufficiently obvious, to the public ; and I. could disclose the name of the Democratic author, loo whoever the mere Radical tool aud instrument may have been but I wtH-uot further intrude upon valuable space in your columns. nor upon the time and patience of your read ers.

"Yes." -.isi K--i - Well, one day that chateau was a fort bristling with cannon, the terrace an em bankment, glittering witTi bayonets, and therreet here, and the street thrr, and the street yonder, and the '' oif he other side of that a .g1 of TuVKfngft.rii-us podo. , There had hern no bread that day, nor the oue bf..re, nor lie "nr.e b foe that, and the people were famished, thoujrh the nobles tolled in wealth and splendor. Through the city that morning men witjf ominous faces and red caps ruiht have been seen standing before the wine shops, and up in by-ways talking with the pen pie; about mid-day there began to aiise a murmuring throughout the city later il culminated info a roar, and then with one wild outcry the people were running mad in the streets, armed and furious, ravii,g for bread or blood.

Here there was a scaffold ai d a bench, when? the girls sat, and Monseignenr was tried and decieed to die at sunrise for having defied the people. It was so de creed, and as the piison stood in where the cluteau and barricades were, they tl teed him down l.e il,' . :.. muttered an epithet of abhorrence at the infamv of h., ,n.,.A...,. i... ..i ... and so Monseignenr the Marquis was left witu only a tew hundreds of a guard, w ho were placed at 8 o'clock in the evening to wateh all night. In the morning he was to die. Early that night a horse rattled out on the north ever yonder by the marshes and from the way the horse's head was turned and the way the dust rose, he waa judged by the sentinel at the chateau to j i.a.e gone on me road to 1'an. 1 uai nignt, ot course, mere was no re joicing in the village; partly because there was no bread, and partly because there was no joy ; but there was restless nee and excitement on account of what was to take place at sunrise. The people have been sometimes called bloody, Mon sieur, but wc are not and I believe that if it had been possible in the minds of the people to have saved Mouseigneur the Marquife, be would ha-e been saved, but they, had settled it in their minds, and there was no possibility. The people also knew that after thev had threatened to take Mooselgneur's life, ! when tha Iroopa came, u' they itxtely 21 187 ' would there would be a terrible r. tribo .".. , ou alter be was drtd who was to fay who hhd thrcateued this thing, and so it nas to be done. At 4 o'clock it wag daybreak ; at 5 sun rise -about 3, Monseignenr, sitting lean jug his back against a pillar of the qoay. heard something fall into the water. He listened ; there was some one talking. It was well he thought they bad come to muruer Inra in the night, and he rose op to face them. It Monsieur had been outside he would have seen the caps of soldiers climbing up over the quay, but iindde be saw nothing, nntil presently a challenge, suddenly a flash, a roar, and with loud cheers n body id soldiers rose up out of boats and poured over the quay. There was a fight, the neoola tiinnrh u was a desperate sally from the cbaiean, a-d foughtWd to drive them back the so.diers in the chateau thought it was .1 tum h atnongn the people, and nonred out upon th.ni. Ah! but there was a desperate fight, and many were killed, iuos-y f the p.-ople, and when the, sun rose, the quay was piled with slain, and the soldiers were in possession of the town, and hundreds of the people piisoners. Monseignenr was safe. Count St. Mar ccau on the river on the road to Fans with boat and soldiers, h-urd all and came. I bus it was said. "And.-'asked Monseigneur,wbow heard you this ?
